ST. Louis, Feb. 23.-Statements credited
10 supporters OF former Gov. Folk that
he is preparing to enter the race with

Newark, Feb. 2s.-This city has not had
a chance to get intimately acquainted
with a President of the United states
since forty years ago. when President
Grant dropped in TO attend the opening or
the Industrial Exhibition. so when Presi-
dent Taft motored in late this afternoon,
Newark gave him a hearty welcome.
Tho ovation began when the President
reached Harrison, on the east bank Of
the Passalc River, and continued untn
long after he had retired at former Gov.
Murphy's home in Broad street. It
started again when the Presidential party
left the Murphy home for the auditorium,
where he spoke to the boerS ot trade.
There we're outbarsts OF cheering when
he left the banquet hall and hurried TO
his private car.
1t was Taft Day." and the principal
streets were decorated with flags, bunting.
and red. white. and blue electric lights
The Presidential automobile was escorted
by several hundred wildly enthusiastic
boys. a convoy of automobiles, contain
ing State and city notables. and police
men. Shortly before the President left
the Murphy home for the banquet hall the
Essex Troop, the pride of Newark, swept
down Broad street. lined up before the
Murphy. home, and escorted him TO the
auditorium.
Convenience OF Budget system.
After paying a little compliment TO
Newark. President Taft said:
II should Ike 20 direct your attention
to the question of government expenses
and government revenues, and the pos
sibie economics. and what expenditures
are essential at whatever burden OF taxa
ton.
In the first place. It should be said
that we havs been so far from exhaust
ing the resources Of national taxation
and Federal revenues have been collected
so easily and in such amount that we
have failed in the past to adopt budget
system which is practiced in every other
civilized country. BY a budget system
mean a reference Of proposed ex-
pendtures and receipts to some one au-
thority OF tribunal, which, after determin-
ing what the revenues are to be. must
also determine what the expenditures can
be and make q budget without a deficit
In our legislative body. which provides
the revenue and authorizes the expendi-
lures, time was when the Committee on
| Ways and Means on the one hand deter
mined the revenues Of the government OF
provided the laws for raising them. and
on the other hand determined the aB-
preparations and measured the eXpendi-
lures. But for many years IN our Con
gress these functions have been divided
| The revenues are provided by the Ways
and Means Committee Of the House and

are to be available to meet the appro

WILEY ARRAIGNS

Declares Women Have No
Place in Classroom.
ADVISES CULINARY TRAINING
Chief Chemist. in Speech at Cornell
Alumni banquet, Shocks the Fair
Graduates by Arraignment of Co
educafiOn-Mrz. Harriet Conner
Brown Takes Opposite Stand.

In a seintillating arraignment Of CO.
education at the Cornell Alumni dinner
last night at Rauscher's. DIR. Harvey w.
Wiley, Chief Of the Bureau OF Chemistry.
declared women have no place in the
classroom, and that 1t is more important
that they learn cooking than calculus.
Half Of the diners. who met TO revel in
memories of the Cornell campus, were
women graduates. and all believed ear
nestiy that fair co-ed's are 6 part OF the
ideal university, but Dr. Wiley calmly
advised them to prepare for life by learn
ing to sew buttons oh shirts instead Of
digging into the intricaeies Of higher
mathematics.
Happiness of Husbands.
He said fresh eggs are more important
to the happiness Of husbands than a
logical verdict as TO the material in the
tail of Halley's comet. and urged the
women to give their daughters a culinary
course rather than an academic training.
The Cornell men applauded and roared
with laughter when the inventor Of the
poison squad scolded the college women
and made fun of them for wanting 10 In
wade the elassrooms OF the great institu-
tions OF learning. but he laughlngly as
serted he expected TO see skirt1 under
graduates under the venerable elms Of
! the Harvard yard before the more attrae-
tive sex are given the vote.
DR.. L. o. Howard, Of Cornell. the toast
master. called upon DR.. Wiley after Mrs.
I Harriet Conner Brown had been telling
I just how much good It does a girl to
be allowed 10 go to Cornell, and. Incl
dentally, what a good influence it has on
students Of the other gender.
'T never was much impressed by this
co-education in our colleges" he said
/ you might as well let the women vote
! In the District of Columbia as allow them
l in the academic classes. I've always no
ticed that girl Is the best learner-she
learns more in the class room than a man
and does less with il when she gets out.
Education is training for the tasks
and pleasures of after life. and I can't
see how it helps a woman any in that
way. I realize women are human beings
and they are valuable. Some OF the best
| help in my bureau are women. But the
next generation of women will be just
like this one You can't change nature
and they viii still be wearing rats and
things in their hair 800 years from now
You don't see US doing that.
Now believe In education for women
I believe If they want to go into profes-
sions they should be admitted TO those
courses in the universities. But the best
way to educate them is the old-fasEioned
way.

The French Army Has Discarded the
Old Style Article for One
More Modern.

Paris. Sept. 1.-THE knapsack Of
black leather mounted on a wooden
frame which the French infau.ry
soldier has carried hitherto, has been
suppressed by order of the minister
for war Gen. Grnn.
1t Is to be replaced by a new kin
of knapsack made of brown saeking,
and will be carried much lower than
the old one. In the method adopted
by tourists in Switzerland. The old.
fashioned one was terribly heavy
and cost 12s. TIE new one Ia very
light and will cost only about rs.
One of the principal reasons for the
Suppression of the old knapsack Is tha
for soldiers wearing II
to have perfect freedom OF movement
and, above all. to shoot in reclining

The new knapsack will have no
stiff frame work and will have SUP
