SENSATIONAL STORY
ABOUT ROOSEVELT
Report That the Ex-President Had
Lost His Life is Discredted BY AS
ISOLATED Press.
Bv Associated Press

NEW YORK, Nov. sensational
reports to the effect that former Pres
ident Roosevelt had lost his life while
hunting in Africa, were spread through
out the United States yesterday. They
were generally discredited. Owing to
the inaccessibility Of the sections
through which Mr.. Roosevelt travels it
is always difficult to refute these re-
ports within a short time after they
are started.
Similar ones have been circulated
several times since Mr.. Roosevelt
started on his big game hunt. Towns
in East Africa yesterday reported to
Associated Press correspondents that
when the Roosevelt party was last
heard from the members of the party
were we'll.

FARMERS OF "OLD
MISS ARE BUSY
Picking Remainder Of Cotton Crop
While Weather Conditions
Remain Ideal.

The weather conditions in Missis-
sippi remain ideal for cotton picking,
and the farmers are bending every en-.
ergy to get the remainder of the crop
from the fields.
There has been only one heavy frost
in the state during the autumn period,
and it is certain that there will not
be visitation of the killing variety
until after heavy rain. During the
past two weeks showers have been
exceedingly few and very light, and o
killing frost is impossible until the
ground is thoroughly soaked.
In a good number of counties, es-
pecially in north and southwest Mis-
sissippi, cotton picking has been finish
ed, and that portion of the crop not
already marketed is being held for
higher prices. The opinion generally
prevails among the large planters that
yesterdays sixty-point break in the
market was the result of speculation
and crop conditions or prospects had
nothing whatever to do with it; that
the staple will inevitably seek a high
err level, and they are going to hold il
to await better prices.

interest will be the annual reunion of

Vicksburg with Maj.-Gen. Robert Low
ry of this city, presiding. On the Sec
ond day of the reunion, which COM

Mr. Davis thought that the language
in the resolution might be toned down
little, '"iust n little more polite, -
as be expressed it. Frank Thompson
moved to strike out the Objectionable
part and pass the resolution as amend.
ed. This was done unanimously. and
upon motion of Mr.. Prosser the sub
stance of the resolution was cabled on
to President Taft Immediately.
just before the meeting was called
to order, Senator w. o. Smith came
in and announced that he was unable
to remain at the meeting, but he stated
that he had talked with the Governor
about p resolution favoring appoint.
ments to all Federal Offices in the Ter.
ritory, and the Governor expressed
himself as strongly opposed to such a
resolution, as he was afraid it would
make an unfavorable impression. Such
blanket resolution seemed to cover
all Federal Offices here, including quar-.
antine Offices, etc. Mr.. Smith said IL
resolution referred only to judicial
officers he would certainly favor it.

.CUBANS HOPING
FOR THE BEST

HAVANA, March 14.--While the
hrst month in the life of the restored
Cuban republic has not been one of
achievement, il has at least not been
marked by an incident calculated tn
confirm the prediction that the experi.
ment of Cuban self.government was
destined to speedy failure. On the
other hand the government of Gen.
J Gomez has still to present assurances
OF its ability wisely and firmly to di.
rect the destinies of the island Cubans
OF all parties seem determined to for.
get their political differences and pull
together to avoid another American in.
PREVENTION.
At the close of the provisional gov
eminent one prominent American Off.
clal expressed the belief that the Gomez
administration would collapse within
three months; but he added that if it
survived that il probably would en-.
dure indefinitely.
discouraging feature of the con.
gresslOnal session is the multiplicity of
trivial measures. Among these were
DIS to rescind the military orders of
the first intervention against cock
hghts ana bull fights; to establish ma.
tional lottery and TO change the name
OF the revenue cutter service TO thar
of the Cuban navy. The general am.
nesty bill, which was signed by Gen.
Gomez few days ago, gave liberty to
hundreds Of eonyiots throughout the re.
public, all but the perpetrators of the
most atrociops crimes being included in
its provisions.
One of the most recent amendments !
which was accepted by the house grave. /
~ declares that all "homicides and sui. |
eides" except those serving life sen.
tetnces for second offense, shall be in,
cluded in the amnesty.

PAELE FOUND THE

Board of Supervisors has learned that
It is out considerable money for stables

seer, was let out recently and IN,

Job. But when Mr.. Paele took the
horses and mules and started to put
them in the eOunty's stable which han
pens to be on Mr. Peck 3 land, the lat
ter said may, nayi"
When Mr.. Paele insisted that the
stable was an asset of the government.
Mr. Peck asked him to show him. as he
was from Missouri. Then Mr.. Paele
wrote to the Mayor and the Mayor
looked up the matter and then notified
the board that the county was up
against IT, and that Mr.. Peck seemed
to have an undisputed right to the
stable.
AS far as known the stable was erect
ed on Mr.. Peck's land merely ON 4
verbal agreement, but the Mayor stat
ed to the board that there was prob
ably no legal right of the county to
take the stable of the land.
The supervisors admitted the force
OF the Mayors statement and talked
about getting a long lease on some
property IN the district where the new
stables could be erected and the coun-
" could be sure that it really owned
them.
1t is said also that many of the cor
rals erected on poundkeeper' property
were punt with county money on the
same sort of agreement had with Peck.

Mayor Fern and Engineer Gere win

to investigate the Gere .Paele cor
troversy over road and bridge buil4-
ing. Engineer Gere has fatty refused
to continue further work in Koolau If
Road Overseer Paele continues in his
present antag0nistic attitude toward
him and his plans for repairing bridges
and roads. Mr.. Gere told the Super
vlsors on Friday evening that Paeie
was stubborn as mule and absolutely
refused to take orders or suggestions
from Gere, and that Paele intended r.-
pairing Waiahole bridge in his own
way, which he said would only be 10
squander the public funds. Gere stat
ed that Paele was utterly incompeteut
and should not be retained in office.
Something was said during his re-
marks about club holding meetings
at Waikane every Saturday night at
which the choice of lunas and work
men for the following week was made.
and IN response to query as to wheth.
ed it was political club, he replica
that it was a Democratic club. This
caused the Mayor to rebuke the engi-
neer admonshing him to keep politics
out of the matter.
1t is said that some of the differ
ences between Gere and Paele aros,
from the fact that Paele recently dis
missed Mr.. Ceres brother as luna.
However, it is generally admitted that
Paele is incompetent.
