81 believe in him with all my heart
and hope that he will be elected"
Such is the declaration made by
Col. Theodore Roosevelt, concerning
the candidacy of Gen. J. Kent Hamil-
ton, Republican candidate for member
of congress from the Ninth District.
1t is known that Col Roosevelt will,
If possible, make a few campaign
speeches in Ohio, and one Of them
may be in Toledo. II Roosevelt does
come here, Gen. Hamilton's friends
have assurance, he will amplify his
endorsement of Hamilton and give
powerful reasons why the Republican
candidate, having declared for pro
gressive policies and against the re-
election of Joseph G. Cannon to the
speakership, ought to be elected.
Roosevelt has manifested keen in
terest in the campaign in the con-
gressional districts in Ohio. He was
delighted when Gen. Hamilton de-
clared in his campaign opening speech
in West Toledo, that he would be
absolutely free and untrammeled,
under obligation to no interest, clique
or party boss.

WANT TO Be CITIZENS
In Time to Vote at the Coming Nov
ember Election.

During the past month eight petit
tions for naturalization have been
filed with the Clerk of Courts, and
these will come for hearing in the
January term of Court. This brings
disappointment to some of the petit
TONERS who seemed to have an idea
they could secure the necessary cre-
dentials to allow them to vote at the
next election Nov. s, but the new
law does not permit any person to
be naturalized at any time within 80
days of general election, and it is
also necessary that the petition be
posted 80 days before the petition
can be heard in Court, added to this
is the Court rule that petitions can
not be heard at only stated times
for such hearings, which are the third
Thursdays of the January and April
terms, makes it necessary for petit
TONERS to file their petitions in good
season. The law is rigid and there
is no way around the ruling. The gov
ernment is far more particular in
the matter of naturalization than
formerly, and it is now impossible
for man to become a Township
Trustee six weeks after he arrives
in this country. The petitioners are:
Moses Harry Baron, Russian, of
Bowling Green; Thomas Heban, and
Norbat Josef Heban, Austrians, and
William Langendonk, German, Adam
Gorka, Austrian, John Zion, Aus
trian, of Rossford; and Louigi De-
Falco and Rock Marcantonio, Italians
of Walbridge. Besides these there
is one other, a Sicilian, to be heard.

AS against this declaration on the
part of Gen. Hamilton, Col. Roose-
welt has been informed of the cam
paign declaration made in 1906 by
Gen. Sherwood that he was then a
Roosevelt Democrat. In February,
1908, the files of the Congressional
Record show, Sherwood made a
speech on the floor of congress in
which he said that President Roose-
velt was a wobbler, looking for a
new slogan to win unthinking ap-
plause."
The political record of Gen. Sher-
wood, it was, shown, proves that, in
1874, he was a Republican member
of congress. A few. years later he
was elected probate judge of Lucas
county on the Greenback ticket. Lat
er he was a Nationalist, then Dem
ocrat again, a Roosevelt Democrat in
1906 and a Bryan Democrat today,
making strong plea for the Social
ist vote.
"Who is the wobbler?" the Roose-
velt-Taft Republicans are asking.

fore Robert Madsen, of West Bur-

FOOT BALL GALORE
Five Games Played During the Past
Week.

There have been five games of foot
ball played by Perrysburg teams
during the past week. 1t started in
on Friday when picked up team
composed Of two or three who could
boast of having had foot ball in
their hands, two or three others who
had been to game once, while the
rest laid no claim to even a passing
knowledge Of the sport, went to Co
lumbus Grove and were trimmed to
the tune Of IL to 0.
On Sunday the Perrysburg Juniors
again stacked up against the Fulton
Juniors and after playing several
minutes with a strenuous argument
after each down they at last called
1t off with the score 5 and 5. The
big affair occurred Sunday when the
Perrysburg regulars lined up against
the Fultons, their old-time rivals. AS
Is always the case when they play
them the game was a hard fought
battle from start to finish and not
until time was called on the final
down could one tell what the final
result would be. AS usual the visit
ors got the jump on the home team
and had secured touchdown within
very few minutes. From then on
1t was case of see-saw, first one
team being ahead and then the 9TH
er, until when the game was called
on account of darkness the score
stood 16 to IL in favor of Perrys-
burg and they had won their first
game.
Bert Homer got into the game for
the first time and as usual did much
to help land victory, while Midget
Refs was in the game from start to
finish and his work on both offense
and defense was almost phenomenal
as he would get away for long runs
through ting entire Fulton field and
tackled the big opponents as though
ne weighed a ton instead of being
the smallest man on the team.

VALENTINE THEATRE.
Attractions at the Valentine Theatre,
Toledo, Week of November 9TH.

One of the best musical comedy
entertainments of the season is "The
Girl of My Dreams" which comes to
the Valentine Theatre, Monday, Tues
day and Wednesday, with matinee
on Wednesday. 1t is just brim full
of fun with never tedious moment
from the start. Neither John
Hyams nor Leila Mcintyre, with
whom are intrusted the leading roles,
could be improved upon. The form
er is probably one Of the best light
comedians in musical comedy; and
Miss Mcintyre has captivated the au-
diences by her extremely graceful
dancing and charming singing. The
chorus is made up of pretty girls
who can both sing and dance and
who work with we'll trained precis-
ion. Every type of beauty is repre-
sented. The book of the piece is by
Wilbur D. Nesbit and Otto Hauer-
bach, and the music by Karl Hosch-
ma.
.The Third Degree" which will be
the attraction at the Valentine Thea
tre on Thursday, November 10th,
unravels the misfortunes of Howard
Jeffries, Jr., after his unthinking,
aristocratic father stops his allow
ance because of the boys marriage
with girl below him in social sta
ton. In his effort to obtain funds
Howard seeks out an old-time friend
and debtor at his art studio. The
friend is bankrupt and contemplat-
ing suicide. While discussing their
troubles Howard imbibes with such
freedom of nearby decanter that he
falls asleep on the davenport. I'm
able to free his mind of the suicide
idea the friend passes into the next
room and a gunshot is heard. The
police arrive to find Howard still in
the room where he slept. After
seven hours of the third degree the
boy is worn out and finally confess
es to having killed his friend. The
consequent struggle by his earnest
and shrewd wife for his acquittal and
their happiness is as charming a
story as has been seen on the stage
in recent years.
"The Girl in the Kimona," which
will be the attraction at the Valen-
tine Theatre on Friday, November
18th, is typical of the advanced idea
in musical comedy. 1t Is "girlie"
enough to suit the most confirmed
worshiper at the shrine of femipinity,
and musical enough to please of the
fancy of those who care more for
melody than for the Kaleidoscope
maneuvers for the girl squad. More
practical still is the employment OF
startling electrical effects in some of
the big ensembles. The musical end
of the show is what appeals most,
and in such songs as "Boogie Boo
Lady," Beautiful Rag" Il Love to
Love a Mason" and "Chum High
ball' one finds himself tapping his
foot on the floor and whistling with
the boys in the 'roost" on all en-

Apples.


The apple is fruit that grows upon
a tree.
Because of this fact, the tree is
called an apple tree.
The problem of whether or not it
would be an apple tree If It did not
bear apples is one that has racked
the brains of some of our deepest
thinkers.
At first blush, one would say It
would not be an apple tree under those
circumstances.
Blushing again, and becoming gram.
matical, he would say "in those cir
cumstances."
However, we know that all the ma,
pie sirup does not come from the
maple tree.
Apples used to be very nice and
good. They tempted Adam and Eve
to break their lease before the first
fall.
Yet apples then were not as apples
nowadays. Nowadays apples, like
eggs, are not considered fit for the
market until they have been kept In
cold storage for at least one year.
If Adam and Eve had been tempted
with a cold storage apple their mail
would still have reached them at No.

chan mountains were not so named
because OF the apple orchards that
blanket their sides.

has frequently struck out three men
on nine pitched balls without ever
using q curve.

him one of the most marvellous pitch
ers the game has ever produced, and
1t is his great, long arm that gives
him his speed.

OYSTERS GROW ON THE TREES

Rico.

Washington.-Oysters grow on trees

suspectingly in the waters there; fish
of hitherto unknown varieties will eat
out of the anglers hand In Porto Rico.
and fish OF every kind and description
are waiting there to be caught.
All the foregoing is described in a
report to the bureau of insular af.
fairs from San Juan. The angler might
try this from the report to the bureau
on his rod and reel:
AT one port the following food
fishes are taken by hand hook and line
or trolling: Candil, red goat; Spanish
mackerel, two to ten pounds; king
tish, forty pounds. runner, cabra NOR.
Da; Nassau grouper; red hind; toro;

amarllla, one pound; red goat, one
to eight pounds; blue parrot, three to
eight pounds; trunk fish, one TO four
pounds; robalo, five to twenty-five
pounds, and balaju, one-quarter to
three-quarter pound"
AS for oysters, Capt. John II. Kerr
of Baltimore, who Is In Porto Rico
looking over the fishing field, is au-
thority for the declaration that they
grow on trees, and the report to the
bureau Of insular affairs says:
oysters Of good favor are quite
plentiful on the south side of the is
land, they are usually attached to the
roots and lower branches of the man.

In spite Of all these conditions the

Ever since Walter Johnson Of the
Washington Americans broke into fast
company opposing players have
marveled at his great speed.
With an easy motion Johnson seems
able to send the sphere through space
at such a terrific pace that even
though the batsman knows that the
ball will come on a straight course,
he is unable to meet it with his stick
Johnson gets his speed by reason Of
his wonderful reach. He has longer
arms than any other pitcher in the
country and pitches with the least ef'
fort
When his arms are stretched out
they measure TIN inches from finger
tips to finger tips. This is 2% inches
longer than Jeffries' reach and '5&
inches longer than Jack Johnsons.
When he releases a ball after hav.
ing wound up this long right arm 1t
goes through space with the speed of
bullet
Few, indeed. are the pitchers who
