PRESIDENT PLEADS
FOR WORLD PEACE
Taft Is Guest of Honor and
Principal Speaker at Great
New York Banquet.
DOES NOT YET ADVOCATE
CUTTING DOWN OF NAVY
Points Out That Great Expense
of Armament Is Most Potent
Factor for Peace.

NEW YORK. March 22.-The presi-
dent of the United States spoke In the
cause Of world peace tonight before
such a brilliant assemblage at the Hotel
Astor that he described it as superla.
tive. He was the honored guest at
BANQUET of the Peace and Arbitration
league and the principal speaker
International peace was the key
note Of every address, but no speaker
advocated the immediate disarmament
of nations. All agreed armies and
nayies were necessary until more
utopian universe shall have come about
On this point President Taft said.
HBecause we are IN favor or UNI

ton to secure il. We are not IN faVor

we are using now Tor the securing OF
peace, or withdrawal OF our arlnanene,

applause greeted his declarations, and
he continued:

in speaking so emphatically here IN
favor of peace by arbitration, and IN

President Explains His Re.
marks Concerning Press in
Recent Chicago Speech.
ADMITS THAT HE FEELS
CRITICISM TOO MUCH

but Finds Job of Being
President Difficult.

NEW YORK, March 22,-President
Taft, facing crowd Of 500 newspaper
men and editors at the New York Press
club this afternoon, indirectly apollo
gized for his remarks concerning the
press made IN a recent speech IN
Chicago. He explained his attitude at.
ter John A. Hennessy, president of the
club, had remarked in n speech that he
did not agree with the president s
views Then Mr.. Taft said:
Reference has been made by your
chairman, Mr.. Hennessy, to a speech ]

her guilt, there is none whatever
about the fascination she had for men
This may have been unwilling on her
part; it may have been deliberate, but
the story of her adventurous life
proves that it was most potent She
is not yet thirty, but at least six men
have ruined themselves for her; two
of these met tragic deaths and four of
them deserted wives and children
Made Lawyer Her Victim.
One day the Countess called on
business at the office of a lawyer,
Prilukow by name. He had loving
wife and thirteen-year-old son, and
was making from $4,000 to $4,000 a
year from his practice. Wife, family
and practice were thrown to the
winds as soon as he saw Countess
Tarnowska. His wife got a divorce;
his fortune vanished; he appropriated
the funds of his clients. When $4,000
rubles in the hole he shot himself.
But the surgeons saved his life, and
since then he and the countess have
wandered all over Europe, he her de
voted slave, she fascinating all men
with whom she came in contact
Among her victims was Naumow, a
youth of good family and married. His
wife divorced him on account of the
Tarnowska woman, and he joined the
latter and Prilukow in their wander
ings.
They met Count Kamarowsky,
colonel of the Cars Noble Guard, a
widower with one son, and a million
aire. He wooed the countess honor
ably and wanted to marry her He
made will and insured his life for
s250,000 in her favor. and introduced
her as his fiancee to his mother.
When away in Russia Naumow re-
ceived a telegram ostensibly signed
by Kamarowsky. containing gross in
suits directed against the Countess
Tarnowska and himself. Naumow
went at once to Venice. where Ka-
marowsky was living, and shot the
latter to death in his room
The Countess Tarnowska confessed
that she and Prilukow had sent the
telegram to Naumow. knowing that 1t

1t is surely unique distinction in
these days to have five challenges to
duels issued in defense of her name.
And this distinction the Baroness
EIeanora Won Siemens can boast
There was a great sensation in the
Italian Chamber of Deputies on March
4 when Enrico Chiesa, Socialist rep
resentative of the Extreme Left, in
interpellating General Prudente, the
Under Secretary of War, formally ac-
cused several generals of having be-
trayed the secrets of the national de-
tense through the Baroness Won Sic
mems, a foreign woman with whom
they were on friendly terms. At the
close of the session five men chal-
lenged Chiesa to fight duels- Among
these were General Fecia di CosSato,
General Prudente, the Duke Of Litta
and Count Giacomo Morando- The
challenges came so quickly on top of
each other that the seconds and UNI
pires had much difficulty in arranging
their priority. This was at last set
tied and two of the duels have been
fought Nobody has been killed up to
the present writing, but General Pru-
dente wounded Ciesa in the face and
Chiesa gashed General di Cossato in

WESTEN CANADA AS
A GRAIN PRODUCER
NEVER SAW SUCH FINE WHEAT
ANYWHERE.

Gust Anderson of Maidstone, Sask,
been in Central Canada three years.
On January 16. 1910, he writes:
Arriving fifteen miles from Maid
stone, bought couple of steers from
a rancher, as my capital was not
with me, I broke 25 acres which 1 put
in crop in 1908 and had to clear some
brush. earned $4,000 by breaking
fifteen acres for neighbor and dur
ing the summer I put up hay and
hauled timber and put up houses for
other settlers. Notwithstanding
heavy frost on August 18th, / had 221s
bushels of wheat per acre and so
bushels of oats. OF 35 acres of wheat
in 1909, 1 got 81 bushels of wheat
per acre and 1900 bushels of oats off
20 acres. 1 never saw such fine wheat
anywhere. We have plenty of rain
between May and August and after
August seldom any but dry warm
days Water can be had at from 20
TO 40 feet and plenty of grass for cat
tie"
The evidence of Mr. Anderson is
given because it is encouraging to the
man of small means who is DESTROYS
of lettering his condition. 1t shows
what can be done, and there is really
but small limit to the man with push
and energy to become wealthy on
Canadian lands. And the grain that
he raises is good. A press dispatch
says:
The quality of the wheat continues
to be the feature of the deliveries. In
the total of 1878 cars in the February
| inspections there were 2,S47 of high
grade stuff, a percentage of 84.28. For
January the percentage was 1921, and
| for the six months it was $50. This
is an unusually high average, and it
| demonstrates beyond the shadow of a
| doubt that the farmers in this part
| of the Dominion still know how to
grow first-class wheat. The crop OF
1908 was considered good enough, and
| it's average of contract wheat was
only 70 per cent. Good weather
throughout the season was an impor
tant factor, of course, in insuring the
high quality of the grain, and it is not
likely that atmospheric influences OF
| so favorable character will be en-
| countered for a long time to come
The best that can be expected is thai
a fair average for term of years
| will be maintained.

ALWAYS THE WOMAN!'
Recent Tragedies in Real Life in Which the
Frail, but Beautiful, Have Had Part--Pe-
culiar Case Is That of Countess Maria Tar
nowska, for Love of Whom Six Men Have
Ruined Themselves.

hibited in the Paris Salon last year.
Her first husband was one of the
Siemens brothers of Berlin, who are
famous as inventors and manufactur-
ers of electrical machinery. Her Sec
ond husband was Prince Malcolm
Khan, ex-attache of the Persian Lega-
ton in Rome, from whom she is di-
vorced.
It was not pleasant to a woman in
such an exalted social position to be
called a spy, but that five distin-
guished men should rush like OAR
tagnans to risk their lives in defense
of her good name must have been
balm to her wounded feelings.
Another woman to furnish copious
material for the tongues of Europe in
the last few weeks is the Countess
Maria Tarnowska, whose trial for
murder has been taking place in Ven
ice. She is a daughter of the aged
Count Nicholas O'Rurk, a Pole of
Irish descent, and she is the mother
of two pretty children, a boy and a
girl. The man who was murdered
was Count Paul Karmarowsky, who
was fascinated by her. He was killed
by a young Russian student named
Naumow, who had also fallen under
the spell of her fascination, and the
charge against her was that she and a
lawyer named Prilukow-also infatu
ated with her-had woven a diaboli
cal plot and used Naumow as tool
to get rid of Karmarowsky.
