SAYS HE MUST FORGET
FRACTIONAL DIFFERENCES.
Former President Declines to Say How
Far He Will Go for insurgents
or Regulars, and Declares il His
Duty to Even Disregard Party Lines
People TO Choose In New York.



OYSTER BAY, y. Y, July 21.-
Those who heard Theodore Roosevelt
talk at Sycamore Hill this afternoon
came away with a sharply etched
shadow picture of what his attitude
will be in state and national politics.
Primarily, he wished TO keep in the
background in the approaching cam
paign. for he feels that, taking too
prominent 4 part in il, he may be
accused OF assuming a dictatorship.
These views Colonel Roosevelt has ex-
planned to those who have come TO
see him recently. He tells his vlsl-
tors that he is anxious to take a hand
as a private citizen, but he Is willing
to go no further.
viii Help His Friends.
Broadly speaking. he will do all IN
his power to help the men who stood
by him and his policies formulated
during his term in the White House,
but he is nOn-cOmmittal as to whether
he expects TO carry this TO the point
of coming cut openly n favor of the
Republicans all over the country,
whom he considers to be standing for
his ideas. He does say, however. that
he must forget factional differences
and even party lines. and support the
men and the things which he believes
. TO stand for the best interests of the
country as a whole But he has not
made up his mind when he will take
any decided stand.
The Republican situation in this
state is shifting so rapidly that the
colonel said he was having trouble
keeping pace with IT, During todays
interview there were mentioned TO
Hamilton Fish and William Hotchkiss.
State superintendent of insurance. as
having been spoken Of recently in
connection with the gubernatorial
nomination. He replied by naming
over the whole list of men who have
been mentioned, adding. that he Rd
no idea whatever as TO who the best
man would be.
People Must Choose.
He repeated, in substance, his re-
cent declaration that the people must
choose their man, and that his nomi-
nation must result from this fact. no.
because one man OF one set of men
wanted him. To this statement he
added that be had not even decided
whether TO attend che Republican
state convention at Saratoga.
Colonel Roosevelt; said he had not
been reading up on Nebraska politics
lately. and had no. heard how W.
j. Bryan had Jared IN the Democratic
convention in tina; state. The inter
viewer broke news Of the setbsck TO
his former rival and the colonel asked
whether the differences of opinion had
arisB because Mr.. Bryan went too Tar
or not far enough in his prohibition
campaign. He was told the former
seemed to At the case. but did MOI
care to add anything in comment

PHOTOGRAPH IN SILHOUETTE
Eow an Interesting Collection Can Be
Made Easily from Profile
Snapshots.

Silhouette photography is not
new; it has been practiced in all
probability since impressions on SEN
sitized paper were first introduced
in the fifties, says writer in the
Strand Magazine. I have also seen
some remarkable daguerreotypes and
ambrotypes in which the figures are
taken, probably by mischance, in
complete shadow. The chief draw
back to pictures which by accident,
or the lack of adroitness on the part
of the photographer, are made to APP
pear in silhoutte is that the subjects
do not stand out in perfect profile.
There remains, however, another
plan, not less ingenious, and vastly
more entertaining in its results. 1t
consists in collecting profile snap
shots, or making them for the pur-
pose, and converting them into sill
houettes by the very simple device
Of blackening with India ink and
cutting away the background with a
pair of scissors. A large album
may, if the collector be Industrious,
be filed in this way with very fam
tastic and humorous specimens Of
celebrities in silhouette, ranging
from royalties down to popular sing
ers on the vaudeville stage. The
quantity of material at the disposal
of the collector is enormous, because
a wide range exists for his scissors in
the numerous pictures of crowded
race course Enclosures, garden parties
and military functions at which nu-
merous persons of celebrity are GUS
tomarily, if not invariably, present.

ANOTHER WONDERFUL DISCOVERY.

Electricity, telephones, airships
and all the wonderful inventions
OF this scientific age seemed inn
possible q few years ago. But it
seems there is nothing 80 inn
possible but what some scientist
will discover the means Of accom-
phshment. Prof. Emerson has now
discovered a preparation which
will really grow hair. Iowa peo-
pie are amazed and astounded oy
Emerson's new discovery for the
hair. Emerson said that one bot
tie Of his new discovery would
grow a full head of hair and re-
store gray or faded hair to its
natural color. The people did
not believe him. 1t was too much
to expect and too good to be true,
They had tried all the highly adj
vertised hair restorers and had
always been disappointed and they
could not believe one bottle would
really grow a full head Of hair
But now comes the most startling
part OF all-for Emerson proved
it - yes, absolutely proved it
What do you think he did? He
made the bold and remarkable
statement that he would give five
dollars to any person who used
one bottle OF his new discovery
and failed to secure q new and
satisfactory growth of hair. The
people were astounded by the un-
heard OF offer, but they knew that
he was financially responsible and
would do as he agreed II it cost

DOSE OF HIS OWN MEDICINE
How a Group Of Artists In Etaples
Humbied the Naughty McNeill
Whistler.

Tradition has it that once the late
Mr.. James A. McNeill Whistler was
flustered, and the story is told by an
artist who was visiting an exhibi-
ton of his works in the Metropoli-
tan Museum Of Art. The painter
had cultivated an air Of hauteur
as one Of the adjuncts of his gentle
art Of making enemies and affected
not to see or recognize even those OF
his profession whom he intimately
knew.
He wandered into cafe in
Etaples some years ago, where he
found several of the artist colony of
the little French town playing bill
liards. They had seen him coming
and had resolved to give the "Only
One" dose Of his own medicine.
AS he approached not an eye was
turned in his direction. He sat
down near the table, watched the
game and finally asked if he could
play.
The artists stared at him as if he
were some intruder from another
land.
