TAFT HAILED
AS THE ONLY ONE
Ohio Society at Philadelphia Pays High Tribute to the
War Secretary-He Talks of Ohios Great Men and
Says Japan Does Not Want War with Uucle
Sam.

philadelphia, Jan. 15.-Secretary
Taft of the war department was the
chief guest the banquet of the Ohio
Society of Philadelphia, held here
last night. Secretary Taft was met
at West Philadelphia station on the
Pennsylvania railroad by Charles DE-
Barney, retiring president Of the Ohio
society, and William s. Taylor, the
newly elected president.
IA feature OF the affair was the
decorations, every design having
conspicuous in its makeup 'the buck
eye" At each plate, instead Of the
usual guest card, was a hatpin with
"a buckeye for head, on which was
painted the Ohio coat Of arms. At
tached to the pin was small flag of
the state, on the reverse side of which
was the name of the guest.
When Secretary Taft arose to speak
he was greeted with a song, in which
he was referred to as Fthe only one."
In reply to this he said:

ciety occasion OF this sort when you
do not nominate some one for the

a horrible sight met their gaze. Bod
les were piled In one solid mass six
feet high ON the second floor. So
|solid were they wedged that pick
Iaxes and crowbars had to be used
gently to separate the victims.
AS each victim was taken from the
lpiles numbering was attached and

the street by means of ladders. They
were placed in wagons and taken to
the four morgues. SO rapidly were
the bodies removed that wagons were
mot always on hand and the dead
were carried through the streets to
the morgues.
DR.. j. X. Evans, burgess of NAL
vern. who supervised the removal OF
the bodies on behalf of the coroner,
said that there were nine female
Victims to one male. He did not be-
llieve that ten per cent. OF the vic
tins would ever be identified. In
nearly every case the upper portions
of the bodies were burned away and
in a great many. instances the lower
lprats of the bodies were not touched
by the fire.

\ The question Of the open door in
China, he declared, was the important
one to us. The United States, the
secretary said, was second only to
England in its commercial relations
with China, figures failing to show

goods entering China were COM

What Others Say.
THE EUROPEAN PERIL.

Answering a question as to what
they would like to be when they
grow up" propounded by a teacher
lin fashionable New York Sunday
school, three little girls, the Oldest
not yet 10 years, replied that they
wanted to go to Europe and be count
esses. Another one, a little older,
wanted to be a princess.
, One thing that is needed in this
country is more and better Chris
ltianity in the homes of the rich as
well as in the homes of the poor-the
sort of Christianity that will rekindle
love of the family circle and elevate
bulwark OF the nation.
1t was very evident that he little
daughters Of the rich, who, at such
an early age, professed desire to
break into the European nobility, got
their notions from their mothers
most likely-for millionaire fathers
usually are to busy with business to
do much planning for their daugh-
tiers future. The chances are that
their mothers have been holding up
before them, as the one great aim
in life, the acquisition of a foreign
title. And the little daughters, being
'schooled to the idea, considered 1t a
perfectly reasonable and worthy am
bition.
1t is to be hoped that in time Amer
hAtr r,tI thA
that the foreign profligate who sports
Ia dlshonored title Is more vicious and
base and vile than even the most
|trifling American spendthrift.
Practically all the blame for the
scandals that result from the mar
riages of rich American girls to titled
foreigners must be placed at the door
of the girls parents, who continu-
ally spread in their way the dazzling
rags of decadent coronets. It's long
call from being a day laborer to being
a member OF a Kings court. and as
the millions that American girls have
at their disposal for the purchase OF
a titled husband were originally made
by grandfathers or great-grandfath-
ers, who came from the humblest
walks of life, the present possessors
desire to get as far as possible from
tho memory of such sordid environs.

band Is not wholly bad.t NzhA is q

American wife, no gratitude for the
mountain OF dollars that she has CIV

A MOVE AGAINST
GOVERNOR HARRIS

From columbus comes a well
authenticated report that deter
mined effort is being put forth by
party leaders dn the city, with
the assistance of some members Of
the general assembly, to defeat
Governor Harris in the coming state
convention. Although the move IS
only few days old, having had
its origin only last week, 1t has
become so general that it is a
topic of universal conversation.
Governor Harris, ever since the
factional fight in Ohio began. has
been credited with trying to strad-
die the proposition. For a time it
appeared as though he had very
successfully accomplished this diff
ficult undertaking. Indeed, so sue
cessful was he dn the outset that
he was given the Endorsement OF
both factions. Foraker came out
flatfooted for his nomination
and. not to be outdone in gallantry.
Taft placed his stamp of approval
upon the States chief executive.
All was lovely and the goose was
elevated in the Harris wigwam for
time. Not a nipple appeared on
his political sea and he bid fair
to be the nominee of the conven-
ton, by acclamation.
But matters had not progressed
so smoothly more than a few months
until the factions, which were al
ready glaring into each others eyes
began to suspect that the governor
was not playing exactly fair, but
was endeavoring to carry water ON
ooth shoulders, or in the terms OF
the gambling room, was playing
Doth ends against the middle. The
result has been the move to oust
the governor from a nomination.
This move promises to complicate
more than ever the political situa-
tion In Ohio. When 1t has been
generally conceded that Cover nor
harris will not be the nominee it
wall make the race open for all,
with the two factions in the party
nghting for the honor. II Ohio

Boyertown, Pa, Jan. Is. AT o
O'Clock, this morning. the most
ghastly and slckening spectacle Of
the disaster of Monday night was
enacted at the public school house.
All night three undertakers, with
fifteen assistants, had labored with
the charred pile OF mangled and
dismembered bodies. BY daylight,
this morning, each body togathcr
with the clothing and other ar;.eiss
of Identification found mad been
laid on separate planks pla ,cd apon
the school house desks The greater
portion of the population OF the lit
tie city, together with sc,re' of
bereaved people from the slrroIn1-
ing country and towns, lined up he
fore the school house doors. The
doors were opened and the peoplr
. were permitted to enter in single
file and pass along the marked
course through the ranks of the
dead. More than one hundred bod
les lay side by side when the grim
ip.ocess'lon started through the
school. AS fast as the cry of an
guish announced 'athat one of the
reviewers had Identified his dead,
the body was borne away on a
plank e
| DR.. Kohler, burgess of l,oyertown
issued a proclamation, today, an
nounclng that all bodies must be
buried whether Identified or not,
within three days.
When the exploration of the ruins
of the opera, house. was resumed
this morning, 1G$ hodies had been
recovered. The men at work in the
debris believe thai not more than
six or eight additional bodies Will
be found Burgess Kohlers figures,
however, show that twenty-five per-
sons are still reported missing and
he fears. that most of these to-
gether with others probably not re-
ported will be found In the ruins.
] Of the bodies recovered 40 are
females and forty-three. males 9th
ers. are so badly burned that the
sen cannot be told twenty-five
of the bodies are those OF small
children and forty more those of
boys and girls in their teens.
Much unfavorable comment Dis be-
ing heard of the action OF the Boy
ertown fire department. and many
charges of ignorance, inefiiciency
and cowardice are heard. 1t is
asserted that the department was
demoralzed that II did little toward
saving those in danger and after
the Pottstown department arrived,
drinking was general and rival
fire lighters battled in the streets.
So slow has been the identification
or victims that 1t Is probable that
many Will never be recognized by rel
atives. All remaining by Thursday
evening will be buried as unknown.
