ARCHIE IN TROUBLE
Presidents Son in Disgrace
Because of His Con-
duct.
CARVED A CHURCH PEW.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Aug. 22.-Ar-
chic Roosevelt is in disgrace with his
father and in trouble with Charles
Seeley, sexton of Christ Episcopal
church, which President Roosevelt at
tends. During the service today,
while the attention Of his father and
mother was taken up by the sermon,
Archie carved his initials and the
name of his tutor, w. D. Parker, on
the back of his fathers pew.
1t was not until the president was
leaving church that he discovered
what his son had done. Then he rep
rimanded Archie severely and took his
knife, a present from Mr.. Parker,
away from him. After the congrega-
ton left Sexton Seeley saw the whittl-
ings on the floor. He was Mortified
to find the presidents pew defaced
and promised the guilty person a
warm time.
1t was Arches fondness for his tu-
tor, who is teaching him Latin and
French, that led him to commemorate
his name in the sacred edifice. Ar
chic goes about with him almost con,
stantly.

There Being Nothing Else to Eat,

ever large it may be, there is little
trouble in swallowing it. The mouth
yawns like cavern, and the stomach
distends to hold a body even larger
than the swallower, The appetite in
fishes seems never wanting, and COM
plete digestion with some OF them is
only a matter of half an hour" For
this reason slaughter goes on unend-

hunger, but some monsters. like the

pure love of killing.

REGIMENT HAS
SPLENDID BAND
viii Be Heard When Soldiers
Visit City.

Inasmuch as the band referred to is
the same as will play in this city up
on the occasion of the visit of the
Tenth Regiment in connection with
the Fall Festival, the following from
the indianapolis Star will be of in
terest:
The concert given at the county fair
by the Tenth Regiment band was a
drawing card last night. Many of the
people who entered the Midway at the
fair grounds sought the band stand
mediately and remained there all
during the time the band played.
Through the courtesy of Col. Her<y
A. Greene of the Tenth Regiment,
which is stationed at FIT Harrison,
the band was permitted to aid in max
ing the fair a success. 1t gave fine
concert Thursday night, also.
The program rendered by the band
held a large crowd about the band
stand and after the concert closed
with the Star Spangled Banner
many flattering comments were made
about the manner in which the band
had played and helped to entertain
the crowd, which attended the fair.

CAMBRIDGE CITY
WAS SELECTED
BAPTIST Conference of Next
Year Will Be Held in
That Place.
SESSIONS OF PROFIT.
LOCAL AFFAIR WAS MOST PRO-
DUcTIvE OF GOOD RESULTS OF
ALL THAT HAVE BEEN HELD
STEWARDS NAMED.

At the closing session Of the fifty
eventh annual conference of the
White River Valley Baptist associa,
ion held at the First Baptist church
yesterday, Cambridge City was select
ID as the place for the conference OF
ext year. The date will be the latter
art of June. The attendance at this
ears conference was unusually large
nd the sessions have been declared
0 be the most successful and inter
sting ever held. Weather conditions
lelped greatly.
The Rev DR.. Stopp was the chief
peaker last evening. He gave very
interesting talk on Aged Ministers,
which dealt with the respect due
them. He said they should be taken
care of and not forgotten as is so of
Ell the case. Miss Morgan who spoke
IN the work that is being done in the
Italian quarters at Brooklyn was 6
yery interesting speaker.
1t is the general opinion that the
talk given by George L. Goodwin yes
terday morning was one of the best
of the conference. He spoke on Sun
day schools and why boys over Il
years of age do not attend and how
to induce them to do so.
The Stewardship committee was APP
pointed and consists of DIR. H. Rober
Smith, of this city, chairman; Mrs
Harriet Williams, Connersville; Miss
Eindes of Elkhorn and Charles Lem

GREAT SEA TURTLE HAS BOY ORGANISE
Youngster Thirteen Years Old
Governs Keyboard in
Celebrated Church.
WORKS AS LETTER CARRIER

New York, Aug. 22-St Andrews
Episcopal church at Fourth avenue
and Fiftieth street, Brooklyn, has the
distinction of being the only church
in Brooklyn with an organist but 13
years cid. Nevertheless, the parish
toner's are treated on Sundays and at
week days to music selected from the
works of the best composers. The
organist is Sidney Stout, who lives
with his parents at 534 Sixtieth street.
Although he has not had much prac-
tice upon the organ, Sidney's ability
on the piano is we'll known, and at
the services few in the church recog-
nized any difference in the playing
from that of the regular church organ
list. The boy is son of Mortimer M.
Stout, a letter carrier.

HOLIDAYS IN MEXICO.
They Are Numerous, but Are Not All
Local Celebrations.

They Are Numerous, but Are Not All
Local Celebrations.
The visitor in Mexico is apt to be
surprised at the number Of holidays
celebrated here and made the occasion
of rejoicing, with accompanying music
and decoration, and is likely to think
that the Mexican does nothing but
celebrate.
With his religious and national feast
days, the Mexican does have many
holidays of more or less general i'm
portance, and when he is not celebrat-
ing these he may be celebrating the
day of his patron saint or Of that Of
some member of his family, so that 1t
seems to require little inducement for
him to celebrate. If a member of the
family goes out of town for a few
days or weeks, his return Is celebrat-
ed in some mild way and his welcome
home made pleasant
But not all of the celebrations which
take place in the capital are Mexican,
as the foreign colonies contribute their
share of feast days, The Americans
celebrate their day Of independence on
the glorious Fourth of July, and ten
days later the French celebrate the
fall of the Bastille, and so it goes, the
British celebrating the birthday Of
their king, the Italians the entry into
Rome of the troops Of united Italy, the
Germans the birthday of the kaiser,
the Swiss the day of the formation Of
the confederation. The Spanish cele-
brate the birthday of their king, and
in September their feast of Corvodon-
ga is important enough to last three
days No doubt there are other cele-
brations not so public or prominent,
such as the Chinese New Year and
others, but the above goes to show
that not all the feasting in the capital
is done by natives. An interesting
point. however is that foreigners who
come to Mexico are soon the keenest
for the coming of the various holidays,
and Mexican, religious or their own.

CLIFF VINEYARDS.
The Farmer on the Rhine and the
Difficulties He Surmounts.

Going down the Rhine you get les
son in farming. If you wanted to buy
a farm in America you would go out
with a pick and spade and dig holes
all over 100 acre tract to make sure
the soil was so and so and that there
was not more than one stone to the
rood. On these cliff vineyards along
the Rhine it looks to you as II there
was not more than a bushel of earth
to the rood and that the rest was all
stone.
In America you wouldn't buy farm
on the perpendicular surface Of the
Grand canyon, yet you imagine the
bluffs of the Rhine seemed almost as
impossible before the enterprising
grapevines got a start there. There
may be few inches of space on the
cliffs where some German has not
made terrace big enough for bunch
OF grapes. but if any such spot has
been overlooked you failed to discover
it with your binoculars.
There are advantages in owning a
vineyard on the Rhine. Next to the
financial returns, the chief advantage
lies in the glamour Of romance that
hangs over the bluffs. browning cas-
ties look down on you from the most

SUGGEST A NOVEL PLAN
GIidden Tourists May Have to
Live in Tents.

New York, Aug. 22.-During the re-
cent Glidden tour proposition for a
run from New York to Denver and
back was preached and much discuss
ed. 1t seemed to find favor. The
plan as at first roughly suggested was
to camp the tourists at night west OF
Chicago. having ex-circus men, or 9TH
er experts. in charge of big tents, NOV
ing them forward by train and wagons
each day and having them ready at
night. 1t was thought that the nov
city of such trip would probably at
tract a considerable contingent of nom
contesting tourists and would at the
same time afford opportunity for a
more severe test than is possible
through the large cities and rural
speed traps of the Eastern coast.
