The most su9veslul term of'0a
music classes Of Misses Mary Ashton
and Mary Dale Figuers was brough,
IN a fitting close Tuesday evening at
the Athenaeum with one of the hest
musical programs that has bee Zen
dered in this city. All of the num-
hars twenty in all, were of the very
highest class and were rendered in
such splendid style that one could de-
tect in every movement OF the per-
formers the careful training that had
been given each of their respective
pupils. The program opened with an
overture by Keller Bella, which was
magnificent, and closed with that in
spirine Die Marionetten by Lynes-
barlow. in which eight hands and four
violins were employed. The violin
solos and piano solos were all good.

The only custom that prevails in
this country regarding the terms of
Office of our Presidents applies to
elective terms. The President. un-
uestionably. does not come within
the letter of this custom II the
custom Is to undergo modification
Mr.. Roosevelt certainly has not the
right to all the say regarding that
modification. Doubtless. when Mr..
Roosevelt issued the foregoing state
ment, he was prompted more or less
by modesty. For him to insist,
however, that the views therein ex-
pressed are conclusive would be the
height Of arrogance. II is probably
the fact that the people do not care
for any innovations upon the custom
In question. The great mass of the
American people are well pleased
with the administrations OF Presi-
d.nt Roosevelt. They want him for
two elective terms. and they have
the right to say whether his re-elec-
tion VIII be a violation OF a custom
OF debatable wisdom Mr.. Roosevelt
has never been an advocate OF short
measure in any of his dealings with
the people. There Is neither rea-
son nor consistency in his saying
now that the people shall accept

elective tern

The assertion that "the sovereign
people and not Theodore Roosevelt,
the individual and public servant,
will decide who shall be his success
sor" is so manifest that 1t will not
admit of argument to the contrary.
The views of the President are en-
tilted to most respectful considera-
tion, but they are not necessarily
conclusive, even where the question
Is whether he shall succeed him
self,
The position OF the President re-
gardlng his own candidacy Is well
known. Immediately following the
election in 1904 he issued a state
ment TO the people, which statement
he reiterated on the 18th OF Decem-
Der last, upon the occasion OF the
call OF the Republican National
Committee for the convention at
Chicago. That statement is as fol-
lows:
81 am deeply sensible of the hon
or done me by the American people
In thus expressing their confidence
in what | have done and have tried
to do. | appreciate TO the full the
solemn responsibility this confi-
dence imposes upon me. and | shall
do all that In my power lies not to
forfeit II. on the 4th OF March
next | shall have served three and
a half years. and these three and a
half years constitute my first term.
The wise custom which limits the
President TO two terms regards the
substance and not the form, and un-
der no circumstances will / be a
candidate for or accept another
nomination.
There IA no reason why the fore
going announcement should be ae-
copied by the American people rs
conclusive simply because II comes
from Mr.. Roosevelt. II there Is
room for difference of opinion rs

Judgment OF the whole people must

he might marry Miss Julia Kuttner, his
. soul mate,'' was separated from her
today when, on a charge of grievous
assault upon her, he was committed to
the Orange county jail here to await
action by the October grand jury. With
her month-old child the woman left
Monroe about the time he was arrested
to 90 to her mother s home in New
York. Later, steps looking toward
legal separation and a division of his
property win be taken. Tonight Earle
is under special guard in the Jail,
Sheriff Albert L. Decker and his as
sistants being fearful he would destroy
himself.
Earle s arrest today was on war
rant sworn to by Inez T. Berry,
graduate nurse who has been in at
tendance upon Mrs. Earle since before
the birth of her child last month. 1t
follows a series of assaults that date
prior to the baby's arrival, which prac-
tically have been continuous. Accord
ing to Mrs. Earle, when her baby was
less than a fortnight old, she was
compelled to leave her bed and stand
for nearly two hours while Earle lee
tured her on her general unworthlness.
On other occasions she was beaten
about the head, face and body until
the services of a physician were neees-
sary.

WORKING OVERTIME
ON QUEEN Street

The county road department is work
ing overtime, Sundays and holidays,
on the Queen street block pavement.
Gangs of men were kept at work yes
terday spreading the tar over the
blocks Just laid, and the work will be
rushed so that the street may be re-
opened to traffic at the earliest pOssi-
bic date. Queen street is one of the
most important business arteries in the
city and the less delay in getting it
ready for traffic the better for the
shipping interests, who now have to
make long roundabout hauls. The
wooden block pavement laying has
commenced from the Nuuanu street
end and is progressing slowly. The
smooth surface of the blocks overlaid
with tar presents a fine appearance.
The blocks are laid on a solid founda-
tion of concrete. The gasoline engine
used for working the concrete mixer
has not been up to requirements, and
breaks down almost every day. This
remedied, the work viii 60 ahead much
faster.

young fellow decided a year ago that
an enlistment in the Navy was about
the best thing for him, and he was

and sent to Mare Island. He served an
apprenticeship and was drafted for the
Pennsylvania. The young man, whose
name is S. Cunningham, came ashore
the other day, with leave of absence

commanding officer. He has had no
