Youth and Age

From Harpers Weekly.
 To middle-age, when we have attained to being what the darkies call "settled people," no lessons are more delightful than those derived from youth. And af- ter any slight foreign experiences. how ready youth is to teach; how sure of ac- quirements, judgment, and taste! At this season of the year the young return from their educational institutions to spend the holidays instructing their parent and they return full of faith in their mission. How wonderfully decorative they are, too! It is one of natures incest adjustments that youth should be beautiful enough to make good all It's deficiencies in sense and reason. while age makes good the with cred textures and faded colors by phil osophic temper and @ sense of humor Yes, youth treads the earth proudly as one who masters environment, and in stinctively we. who have lived and failed much, fall into the background conscious of being tarnished by overwork.

Visitor at Oyster Bay

Oyster Bay, July A-In response. to a telephone message from Sagamore hill, Charles Townsend. constable of Oyster Bay, hurried to ex-President Roosevelt s home In an automobile and took in charge Rev. George Nathaniel, an Ar menian priest about 50 years old. When the constable arrived at Sagamore hill, he found Noah Zaman superintendent of Colonel Roosevelt's estate and a negro servant guarding the man.
 The constable and Zaman put him in the automobile, brought him back to Oyster Bay and placed him on a train for New York. MT. Nathaniel said he lived at Philadelphia, and that he was an arch-deaeon of the Armenian church. MT. Nathaniel wanted MT. Roosevelt to subscribe 5000 for hospital in the Holy Land. He tried in vain to see Colonel. Roosevelt at the Outlook office last Tues day and yesterday came to Oyster Bay. Today he walked all the way to Saga more hill. He rang the doorbell but his speech and appearance aroused the sus- picion of the butler who refused to let him see the colonel.
 Mir Nathaniel said after he was on the train that he would make another ef- fort to see Colonel Roosevelt in New York tomorrow.

TAFT WILL SPEAK
 ID BAR HARB0R|TES Citizens Had Begun to Feel
 Very Much Sighted
ALL CLOUDS ROLL AWAY
Two Indians Who ROwed Out In boat to See the Presidents Yacht Fall Overboard But Are
 Rescued

Rar uarhor. Me. July 21-President Taft will speak here tomorrow at noon and will have a chance to see the year round residents of the famous watering place and to be seen by them in turn.
 Until MT. Taft's intention to do thls was announced today war clouds were gathering rapidly between the Maine citizens and the members of the tash- ionable summer colony whose plans TOT the entertainment of the chief magis- trate and the members of his watching nartv failed to include any concession to the village folk of whom there are about 5000.
 The President was informed of the sit uation today by J. P. Bass Of Bangor and at once consented to make speech to the villagers. Details aBere arranged quickly and placards announcing the event were soon posted at every vantage nojnt and in all but the ultra fashion able shop-windows.
 Tonight the threatened war clouds had rolled away.
 Prof. H. c. Emery, chairman of the new tariff commission could not reach Bar Harbor this afternoon and his sched- uled conference with the President was postponed until tomorrow.
 Social affairs and golf occupied the day of the President. He had a buck board ride out to Jordan pond tonight for a shore supper of lobster and other sea dainties. It was drive of nine miles each way through a stiff breeze.
 The most exciting incident of the cruise of the President this far was the rescue of two Indians who capsized their canoe while the Mayflower was at anchor In Passamaquoddy bay. They had padded out to have a closer view of the big white yacht of the President and stood up in 1t. A moment later there was a splash, an overturned canoe and the hats floating on the water told what had happened. Boats were lowered and the Indians were hauled out little the worse for the experience.

Unknown Men Garry of $500
Worth Of Copper Fixtures.
PROBABLY USED WAGON
Loot Weighed Too Much for Men to
Take Away-Railway, County and
City Police Get to Work immediate
Iy After Discovery is Made.

Chesapeake G. Ohio elevator b was
broken into either Sunday nignr or
Monday night and about $500 worth
of copper piping, wire and other fix
lures was stolen. IL is evident that
the stolen stuff was taken away from
the elevator in a cart or wagon as 1t
would have required small sized
regiment OF men 10 carry the booty
away without some kind OF convey
ance.
Details of the robbery are meagre
as nothing could be learned about
Il at the police station last night.
However, II is known that the rob
berry was not discovered until yes.
terday morning Chesapeake & Ohio
Special Agent Pettus and the railway
detectives as well as the county and
city police are at work on the case
So far as Is known there is no trace
of the robbers and as yet none OF
the stolen stun has been recovered.
Probably Work OF Negroes.
II is believed that this robbery was
pulled of by several negroes who
have been stealing brass valves and
other brass and copper materials
from the cars and the railway yard
here within the past few months.
The men forced an entrance TO Shc
elevator by means of the rear door
and they must have spent hours IN
cutting out the copper pipes and
brass. Considerable more time was
needed to get the stuff out of the
building and to place OF safety. II
is possible that the men put in two
nights on the job.
The police hope to trace the stolen
stuff as the robbers are sure to dis
pose OF it at junk shops either here
or in some other nearby city. They
probably will not realize more than
one-tenth the value of the stuff when
they dispose of it and yet they have
put the elevator out OF commission
and il is estimated that it will cosr
the Chesapeake & Ohio nearly $1,000
TO replace the piping. wires, etc.
Elevator C<sed Two Years.
Elevator B has been closed for two
years or more and there is little like
lihood that IL will be opened up again
In the very near future. There was
no Waterman in the building and the
discovery of the robbery was, ii is
said, accidental.

Many Matters Before Highways

VIA TO BE REELECTED
First Ward Chairman Very Probably

corning Condition Of Streets.

City Clery Floyd Hudgins yesterday
issued a call for special meeting Of
the new council committee on high
ways and sewers for 1880 o'clock to-
night at the city hall for the purpose
OF disposing of the accumulation III
matters now before the body. .
This viii! be the first OF the new
council committees TO hold meeting
and the first business on the calendar
VIII be the reorganization of the body.
II Is generally believed that Council
man George r. Via, of the First
ward. will be reelected cha rman. the
ether members OF the committee are;
Councilmen Harris and Hundiey;
Aldermen Lash and Wheeler
Repairs to Sheet Asphalt.
Among the matter pending before
the committee is the letter OF the
Cleveland Trinidad Paving Company
relative to the repairs to the sheet
asphalt paving on Washington avenue
and On Twenty-fifth street. The com
pany does net want 10 make any re-
pairs until the expiration Of the con-
tract. but some of the councilmen be-
Iieve that the repairs should be Start
ed In the immediate future as the
pavement is in very bad shape.
The question of whether or not the
council can compel the paving COM
pany to resurface the paving viii be
taken under consideration by the COM
mitfee and the city attorney will be
asked for legal opinion regarding
the natter. In many places the sur
face Is very thin and the paving IN
those places probably will be worn
through to the concrete base In a lew
years.
street Cleaning Again.
Resides the paving matter. the COM
mit,ee will consider letter from May
or Marquis Jones relative to the clean
ing of the city streets. 1t is under
stood that the. mayor has written the
committee that the council must pro-
vide the necessary men and materials
for keeping the streets clean. TINS
matter has been giving the mayor no
little amount of worry during the past
few months as the city engineer says
that he has not enough men and ma
terlals to keep the streets clean.
Since the matter OF street cleaning
has been agitated. some of the solans
and others have expressed the belief
that the old council made bad move
when II failed 10 elect a street COM
missioner to srcceed s. ]. HARDWOOD
resigned. They claim that the city
engineer does not have time to look
after the street cleaning and that with
a good street commissioner much bet
ter results could be obtained with the
present force and equipment than has
been gotten during the past six
months.
Repairs to City Sewers.
Another matter which will come be-
fore the committee tonight is the re-
pairing of The city sewers. The sew
or On Thirty-fourth street is said 10
be In bad condition and the residents
Of that section have been complaining
Of a dissgreeable odor arising from
