Ex-PreSident'S Tour of Europe
Declared by the Temps to be
Unparalleled in History and
Marking a New Epoch,
STRENUOUS TIME TODAY

n ARTS. April 2i.-No reigning SOW
ereign ever received "a more en-
thusiastic welcome TO Paris than
did Theodore Roosevelt today. He
reached here at half past O'Clock Ibis
morning and was greeted by renreseH-
tatiVes Of the President and cabiaet,
Ambassador Bacon. VI. Jusserand,
French ambassador at Washington, and
great cOneOuFse OF people.
AFTER luncheon at the American EN-
bassy, Colonel Roosevelt called upon
President FaIiieres and Foreign Min
lister PichOn, who immediately paid re-
turn visits to the embassy. Part of the
afternoon WAS devoted 10 private en-
gagemeuts and this evening Mr. ROOse-
welt was given an ovation at the Com
medic Franchise where he made his
first real public appearance in Paris,
occupying the presidential box placed
at his disposal by MIR. FalIieFes.
Anticipating his coming, every seat
and every box in the theatre had been
sold days in advance. When Colonel
Roosevelt entered the theatre, accom-
panied by Mrs. Roosevelt Miss Ethel
and Kermit and by Ambassador and
Mrs. Bacon, the audience rose, VolleYs
Of applause bursting from the boxes,
pit and galleries. For a full minute
the colonel made no response, but az
the demonstration continued he came
forward and bowed his aCSnOwledg-
ments. The bill was SOphOcles' Greek
tragedy "OediDus Rex" staged and act
ed as possible only at a French nation
al theatre. and Mr.. Roosevelt seemed
to enjoy il hugely.
At the end of each act, when Afounet-
Sully, who played the title role, and
the other performers responded they
advanced as customary when royalty
is present bowling profoundly in the di-
rectiOn of the former president before
turning to the audience.
This seemed to give additional pleas
ure to the audience, which eacn tune
gave a fresh round of applause for Mr..
Roosevelt.

Opinion of the Press.
The Temps tonight fairly reflects the
tone of the entire French press. deClaT-
ing ROOsevelt's tour of Europe is un-
parallelled in history.
No democratic chief of state" the
state paper says ever before enjoyed
such popularity. We are accustomed
to formal visits of kings and presidents
but Roosevelt is no longer presluant.
1t is the man. therefore, not the office,
which is being hOnOred. 1t is his vigor,
his personality, his character, ideas and
temperament which appeal TO Euro
pean opinion"
After reviewing his career the Temps
concludes:

weman Beat Two Men.

We suspect you'd like the tale, how
a woman beat two hardware dealers in
Girard, Pa.
Devoe salesman tried his best to get
those men to sell Devoe lead -and-ziuc
in that bright town; and failed. Re-
luctantly took Mrs. E. r. Bowman,
druggist.
They said they couldn't sell paint
for more than S1.25 a gallon. Mrs.
Bowman can. Sne has sold about all
the paint, that has been sold there
since.
She knew Devoe; had sold his artists
materials. Had some sense and force,
besides; she easily learned that cheap
is dear in paint, and told the people.
Mr.. Burt Young bought gallon
Devoe for rooms that had always taken
gallon of other paint; had half left.
Mr.. John Hanna, grocer, thought it
expensive before he bought it; brought
back nearly half of his paint, and said
it was the cheapest job be ever had.
Mrs. Bowman reports universal satis-
faction. So much for cheap-paint

CAUCUS PLAYS WAITING GAM
Nomination Will Be Thrown Into Open
Session.

Another couple of ballots in the sena-
torial nominating caucus, without result
other than to indicate the hopeless
ness of the tangle in which the body is
involved in this famous political game,
was the program of Thursday after.
Moons session of the democratic caucus.
In fact, it begins to look very much
as if the members engaged in caucus
ing as party adherents will continue to
play the waiting game until the legis-
lature itself, in joint session, takes up
the work. 1t is now believed that this
is part of the game that is being played
by some of the managers, with a view
to throwing the contest into the Off
cial body, and SO reach the coveted
"'open ballot" after all.
1t is quite significant that, notwith-
standing all the dark horse talk and
speculation, the animal has not showed
his nose as yet, the several men who
having failed to develop any following
or support as actual contenders.
Without incident or p~reliminaries of
any kind, after the double roll call,
Chairman Street gave the terse order.
"The tellers will prepare for the bal
lot" and the game was on. There was
the same absence of enthusiasm noted
in the assembly, and, in fact, there was
a spirit of restlessness and nervous
languor prevalent, as though the major
ity were tired of their job and devoutly
wished that the thing was settled and
out of the way. Even the motion to adj
journ, which was fought with some de-
gree Of force and spirit yesterday, was
adopted today with scarcely any opposi-
ton.
