DEADLOCK STILL ON.
Not License Commissioner Appoint

Rutland, March 17.-As the result
of the continuation of the deadlock be-
tween Assistant Judges f. M. Plum
ley of Sherburne, and H. NJ. Redfield
of Hubbardton, there are as yet, no
license commissioners appointed. The
two judges have, during the past 16
days provided by law for the appoint
ment of the commissioners, it having
been impossible for them to get to-
gether as to their selection. There
was no meeting of the judges this
evening, Judge Redfield failing to put
in an appearance, and what the out
come of the whole matter will be,
seems to be very much in doubt. 1t is
rumored that the no license faction
in Rutland is contemplating secur-
ing an INDUCTION to prevent the APP
pointment of commissions, now that
the specified time for their selection
has passed.

impulse-if they bring walking back
into popularity-he has done untold
good"
DR.. George L. Meylan, physical in
structor of Columbia University, per-
haps the best known man of his line
in the country, was most enthusiast
tic about Weston.
He is marvellous" said he. II tried
to see him start this last time, but
he must have started late. l had fol-
lowed carefully the accounts of his
progress Aside from the marvel of
a man of that age undertaking such a
thing, Weston certainly has a perfect
command of the art of walking; he
is unexcelled by any man of any age
or nationality. Probably his closest
competition would be found in the
French army; that's where they have
the best walkers in the world; they
have studied walking there. But they
can't beat Weston in spite of his age.
81 wouldn't prophesy as to whe-
Their he can finish. If it were not for
his walk last year from Portland to
Chicago l wouldn't think it possible,
but that makes a man ready to be-
lieve anything of him.
"He certainly has marvellous ply
sique. It's hard to tell what factor
enters most into his power-natural
physical ability, or moderation
through life, or nerve, or will, or
whatever you want to call it, sand if
you like, or long training, which has
given perfect command of the art.
81 take him simply as an individual
phenomenon; not at all as an example
of what other men might do with
right care. He is just like Jeffries, or
Hayes, or any other great athlete,
and his particular branch is as hard
to evcel in as any other branch OF
sport.
He shows us another valuable
thing from the athletic point of view
Apparently he doesn't go into train
ing in our sense. He has no fixed
diet So far as | can see he eats about
what he pleases, but he eats in mod
Grafton, and drinks in moderation
That moderation is one of the secrets
, of his wonderful strength, and we are
coming round to the idea that this
/ and not strict training, is the thing

FEDERAL AGENT HERE.
Is Examining the Books of American
Fidelity Company and Finds Them
in Good Condition.

In accordance with the position ta-
Wicersham at the beginning of his
administration a special agent of that
department, Albert e. Radent, is in
this city to investigate the affairs of
the American Fidelity Company,
whose home office is in the Langdon
block. This is the first time that a
Federal examiner has opened the
books of this company, but hence
forth, or at least while Mr.. Wiker-
sham is attorney general of the Unit
ed States, an examination will be
made yearly.
Mr. Rodent was seen at the Pavil-
ion Monday by representative OF
the Journal and made some interest
ing statements regarding his work in
the service of the Department of JUS
tice. Mr.. Redant said in part:
Il am here under orders of Attor-
ney General Wikersham and come
from New York, where / have been
| investigating the case of a defaultine
bank president for the past month OF
so. My presence in this city is moth
ing unusual, and in fact, it will be
quite the natural thing for eXamin-
ers from the department which ] re.
present to look into the books of al
companies once a year. The reason
for the examination is that the Am
erican Fidelity Company is a concern
that deals in surety bonds which the
national government frequently takes
as bail in court proceedings and as {
bond for public officials.
81 began my work the latter par
lof last week and flnd that the loca
company is in excellent condition ant
is complying with the national bank
ing laws. which it is the intention o
the attorney general to enforce at al

The President had assured the Ma

whether it was to be an exhibition

The President Reached here at 6 :52
p. M, after trip devoted to studying
"The History of Ireland" and The
Life of st. Patrick" in preparation fer
his speech tomorrow before Chicagos
Irish Fellowship Club. His study was
interrupted only once, when Mayor
Hoyer of Altoona boarded the train
and greeted the President
Mr.. Taft's study of Irish history
was made necessary by the fact that
he is not an Irishman. One of his
callers here tonight asked him if he

FRESH FROM A
 SEASONS TRIUMPH
Golden Girl Company Has Had Big Suceess-COmeS to the Elks MOn-
 day Night.

'sThe Golden Girl" fresh from a seasons triumph in Chicago. where it has crowded two theatres for nearly a year, comes to Elks theater on Monday night, Jan. 31.
 The wonderful stage effects, bril- liant electrical display and gorgeous costuming makes of ''The Golden Girl,' what might almost be called spectacular extravaganza, were it not for the we'll defined plot and the strong dramatic situations that are never lost sight of throughout the performance.
 Perhaps no one realizes more than Mir. Singer, that the day has arrivt.l when it is necessary to give to the amusement seeker in the smallest of the one-night stands, the same com 7. plete, high-class production as that offered in New York or Chicago. He has always believed in this theory, which is substantiated by the road companies that have visited this city under his management
 In The Golden Girl,' Mir. Singer has made the most elaborate produc- tion and offers the best musical con- edy of any yet sent out from lis Chicago theaters
 The company includes Willard Cur tiss. Marie Flynn. Franklyn Farnula, Nina Davis, Charles Horn, Peter Ray mond, Lew Fuller and a score of eth- CTS supported by the best sinein :, chorus ever graduated from the fam ous LaSelle School.
 Features of the production are ''Thc Golden Shower where a veritahle shower of gold descends on a gol- den costumed ballet, fairly dazzling the eye with it's kaleidoscopic effects and the beautiful Indian Love Song" illustrated by elaborately cos tuned chorus figures and novel stage settings. The principal song hits arc, T Think I Hear Woodpecker Knocking On My Family Tree q Cant Love Everybody" '.Id Rather Flight Like Ma, My Ship of Dreams Wine Women and Song,' and The Land of Used-to-Be.'
