The young people of the Heights
are enjoying themselves at coasting
parties these days.
The warm sunshine and the Chi

Wednesday evening, as a party of
young people were coasting, their
coaster broke and few slight
bruises was the result.
Thursday evening, while Earl Ha-
ger and a friend were spending the
evening with G.. 2. Bullock, a queer
accident happened. Upon leaving the
house they found that their horse
had broken the thighs out of their
cart and was still hitched to the
post. After a moments thought Mr..
Hagar exchanged his broken cart 70"

being unaware of the change. The
joke was not known until morning.

ELIOT FOR AMbAS-
SADOR TO ENGLAND
TAFT MAY SELECT HARVARD
SHOLAR TO SUCCEED REID
SORT ARE GOING ON.
(By Associated Press. }


New York, Feb. 20.-Among the
men who may be classed as the warm
personal friends of President-elect
Taft, there is belief that he may
ask DR.. Charles William Eliot, the
retiring president of Harvard Uni
versity, to become the ambassador to
the court OF s.. James, succeeding
Whitelaw Reid.
Matters of this sort, as Senator
Knox once said in relation to Presi-
dent McKinley's reputed desire to
name a certain man to a high diplo-
matte post, ARE not bluntly stated.
They are rather the subject of deli
cate negotiation, extending sometimes
over a period of months, in which
the attitude of either side is gradu-
ally defined Thus, whatever may be
the issue, neither Of the two parties
chiefly concerned is exposed to re-
buff or humiliation. An offer is never
made until the president ascertains
the position taken by the other man.
And no man is ever candidate for
a place of this sort. 1t must come TO
him by reason OF fitness
1t is possible that not all men now
in high Official of';'on have held to
Senator KnoA rigid rule that mo
man is ever q candidate for place
of this Sort Put it is certain that
Dr.. Eliot is not On the other hand,
Il is equally true that delicate nego-
tIations, to use the term qu ted
above, have been in progress for some
time, and that Mr.. Taft has expressed
himself as a warm admirer of the
man who in 35 years made Harvard
one of the great universities, rather
than an overtaxed college.
The extent to which these nego-
tiations have progressed may not be
stated, for they are as yet in nebu-
lous form, which may be dropped by
either party without Offense. 1t is
not even known that DR.. Eliot would
accept the ambassadorship if it were
rendered to him. Nor is it known
that Mr.. Taft will ask him to take
this. from an American viewpoint,
the most important diplomatic place
in Europe.

ST. PAUL, Mimi, Feb. 20.-Less
than two years ago Louis Hill, in an
interview in st. Paul, outlined the
nature of railroad work his company
expected to do in Canada in the i'm
mediate future. At that time he
stated positively that the Great
Northern would build a line across
Canada from Winnipeg within the
next five years.
The present action for a charter
in the Manitoba legislature today,
said Mr.. Hill, confirms that inter-
view.
