ROOSEVELT.
WILL SUCCEED HUGHES AS CHIEFTAIN
OF PARTY IN NETWORK.

Washington, April s7.-TheodOre
Roosevelt for the United States SEN
ate as successor to chauncey Depew.
This is the way political prophets
and wiseacres in Washington have
the situation in New York State fig
ured out today.
They arrived at this conslusion
from many different viewpoints, but
there is apparently a cOncensus of
opinion that this suggestion offers a
solution to a multitude of problems
confronting the Republican party
not only in the Empire State, but
in the nation at large.
In the general discussion of the
situation growing out of appoint
ment of Gov. Hughes to the Su-
preme court bench it already had
been agreed that his retirement
from politics leaves Col. Roosevelt as
the probably chieftain of the party
in New York State. The party lead
ers in Washington realize and they
believe Mr.. Roosevelt will come to
realize the same thing, that the ext
gencies in New York demand a
strong factor in the race this fall if
the Republicans are to gain success
at the poles.
With Theodore Roosevelt as can
didate for the Senate, it is predicted
here that the Republican party
would easily easily retain control of
the Legislature and that the Roose-
welt personality in the campaign
would bring success to the entire
State ticket.
This new feature of the situation
was widely discussed today by sena-
tors and representatives. Friends of
the administration, who are confident
that Mr.. Roosevelt will lend aid to
the President, pointed out today the
fact that as United States senator
the returning traveller would become
a power in the administration, and
his support in the upper branch of
Congress would mean wonderful
strengthening of Mr.. Taft's hands.
As a matter of party expediency
in the Empire State, as a means of
giving free play to the wonderful
Roosevelt activities of mind and
body and from many other points of
view they have inferred here that
Col. Roosevelt and the United States
Senate are rapidly moving toward
each other.

PROPHESIED
THE HOUR OF HIS DEATH-TOLD Ills
WIFE Toby MABLACKSUT.

New York, April so.-when Har-
ry J. wyman, of $40 Avenue c.
Bayonne. n. j., arose from his bed
this morning he said to his wife:
Il feel that l am going to die be-
fore noon. Take this money and buy
re a suit of black clotes. will put
them on and die in them
At this Mrs. Wyman was Sc
frightened that she began to weep,
but when her husbands determi-
nation showed no sign of relaxing
she took the money, bought the
clothes and hurried home as quickly
as she could, for fear something
might have happened in her absence.
When she returned she found him
apparently as well as usual.
The children of the couple, who
had been terrified at their fathers
declaration, had become Gained
when they saw no immediate sign
that anything was the matter; but
he still grimly repeated that he was
going to die, and sent for several re-
latives and close friends that he
might bid them good-by.
They arrived much startled and at
9 o'clock the gathering seated them
selves in the parlor, where they
awaited the fnlfliment of the pro-
phecy. For two hours they watched,
but could seeno evidence ofapproach-
ing dissolution. There was, indeed,
no change in his appearance till FIVE
minutes to IL, when he suddenly be-
came pale. During the next FIVE
minutes he stedily grew weaker, APP
parently from no cause, and at II
o'clock he died.
He will be buried Tuesday in the
black suit that his wife bought.

LOCUSTS ARE COMING.

This is the year that the seventeen
year locust is due again, and in few
weeks he will make his appearance
in the farms of the Middle West.
At least the authorities Oflocust lore
and superstition are sure he will, and
they have never been mistaken in the
past.
No one seems to know exactly
where the seyenteen-year locust
comes from, but it is a matter of re-
cord that he does show up regularly
Just the same.
And the thing that is interesting
the farmers and the old-timer most
is whether he will bring wv on
his wings ora ''P," as is hoped. "w''
on seventeen-year lOcust's wings
means war. There is no reason under
the sun that is known as to why it
should be always either "w'' or ESP"
but those are the two letters that
have been noticed. And also the
locust lore experts have a good deal
ofstatistical backing when they assert
that if the "w'' is on the wings it
will surely mean peace.
In 1898, the last time the locusts
were here" said an old commercial
traveller the other day, " the wings
bore decided W. And we prompt
ly got into war with Spain. In 1876
l saw the 'P' on the wings myself.
And following that we had peace and
plenty. l don't remember so far
back as 1859, that is to say, don't
remember locusts back in those days,
but l have been told by scores of old
farmers that the seventeen-year kind
showed up that year and bore the
w on each wing. The Civil War
followed.
Some of the older generations of
farmers have records in the old family
bible to prove that the former vista
ton of seventeen-year locusts that
came in 1859 presaged the Mexican
War by bearing W. on their wings.
can tell you the farmers are not
anxious to have them come, but they
are all superstitious as to their verify
as harbingers. When you come to
think of it, this letter business seems
ike a foolish superstition. But when
you know that they do bear either
the w or the 'P' and that the sign
has never failed, what are you going
to do about it,
