TAFT LOSING FLESH
No Need to Worry, However, Because He
 Has Lots to Spare.

Beverly, Aug. 20.-Dr. Charles Bark CT, the anti-fat physical instructor, has taken just seven inches off the waist line of President Taft. Just how many pounds that represents cannot be told officially but to the ordinary observer the President does not now seem to tip the scales at more than sos or 309 pounds. The President is stronger by 25 per cent. than when he came to Beverly and started doing his stunts.
 ''No one has any idea of the hard physical work the President performs every day of his life," said one of the men attached to his personal estab- lishment. Not one man in thousand would have the perseverance even if he had the strength, to go through with what MT. Taft does. His physi- cal training. you may say, goes on continuously from o'clock in the morning until in the afternoon.
 Beginning at he goes through his stunts with pr. Barker. which in- cludes all the regulation gym exer- cises. This takes half an hour and then half an hour is given for break fast. After that it is golf until 3 or 3:30 o'clock in the afternoon. During the golf game the President walks four or five miles up and down hill and swings his arms like black smith. He has a blacksmith's muscle now and I'd hate to stand in front of his fist"

BIRD FIGHTS THREE MEN
SK-FOOT BLUE HERON KILLED AFTER EATING s1O0 TN GOLD
 FISH.

Burlington, N. J., Aug. 20.-Three men brought the body of a six-foot blue heron to this city yesterday aft ernoon, with a story of how it had been feeding in the Koandak goldfish hatchery, near here, at an expense of s100 a day to the owners, and how it had finaIly been killed after a. fight that was worthy of it's costly nour- ishment.
 Steel traps have been set in the ponds of the goldfish hatchery to catch piratical birds and beasts that feed on the expensive fish. Charles Par ker, Bryan ODonnel1, and James ODonnell saw the heron caught in one of the steel traps yesterday. They waded out to capture him alive.
 Each had foresight enough to take with him stick. but the minute they came within reach of the huge bird he leaped at them, breaking their sticks with his bill and tearing at the clothes of the men with his claws
 After a short fight, in which the heron was victorious, the three men withdrew and consulted. Then. arm ing himself with huge tent pole which he could use outside the range of the entrapped crane's field of re- stricted action, Parker whanged him across the neck. breaking it.
 The heron measured six feet and two inches from the tip of one wing to the other. The bird had already eaten several big Japanese goldfish when entrapped. valued. the owners said, at $100.

TEXAS WOULD GROW WHEAT
San Augustine Tribune Urges a
Return to Old Ways.
Points out Fact 4hat Cereal May Be
More Profitable Than Too
Much Cotton.

From the Beaumont Enterprise.
The san Augustine Tribune is advocat-
ing the growing Of wheat in East Texas.

grown in that section in the past. but
that people had gotten out Of the habit
That is one trouble in East Texas. It
was away back in generations past that
East Texas grew It's own living but too
many Of the younger generation seem
TO have gotten out Of the habit or what
is probably nearer the truth, never ac-
quired K.
There Is undoubtedly much land IN
East Texas upon whieh wheat could be
grown with a minimum OF labor and
expense, and & would net a fair return
While the land might be considered
more valuable for other crops, like to-
baccO. peanuts. broom corn, &C. yet
much Of Il is OF no value now whatever,
because it Is not utilized for crops. and
10 plant it 10 wheat would give a clear
profit and would help Texas to raise its
cwn foOdstuffs It Is a fact that the big
flour mills of which Texas boasts, which
were built with the expectation that
Texans would raise wheat, have 70 de-
pend upon the wheat farms OF Kansas
for their supply OF the cereal. and that
only recently this Kansas wheat was
bought in New York. at a valuation
raised by the added transportation
charges from Kansas 10 New York. and
brought 10 Texas by water by the way
