the series of cabinet meetings that will
mark the stay of President Taft in
Washington this week was held to-
day.
incidentally, the presidents house
party also began today, its formal
opening being the luncheon scheduled
for 1880 p. m. The cabinet days will
be busy. A long program of subjects
to be considered has been made up an
each days sitting is expected to be
meet each morning, the members will
nave their afternoon free, so that they
may dispose of matters at their de-
partments. In a general way the dis

Guiding the readjustment in progress
IN Nicaragua, reports, estimates and
economy plans from the departments;
the inauguration of the postal savings
banks and the extension of the civil
service to include assistant postmas-
tiers and permanent clerks in money

the cabinet officers took up their resi-
dence at the White House prior to the
formal meeting at II o'clock. The
others deferred moving in until lunch
con time.
It was said that politics would be
given little or no consideration at this
time. great deal of departmental
work has accumulated during the
summer and the consideration OF it
will keep the cabinet well occupied IN
the next few days.
The president likes to go into the
details of the different departments
Today, for instance he sent to the war
department for full information re-
garding the wages paid and the hours
of labor on the Panama canal.

MAC KIE GOES UP.
Chief Clerk to Fox Now Is q
TrainmaSter.
Will Have Headquarters in San
Msrcial.

Through an announcement made to
the State Journal this afternoon by
the officials of the Atchison, Topeka
& Santa Fe railroad. Fred ]. Mac Kie,
chief clerk to F. C. Fox, general super
intendent, becomes trainmaster of the
Rio Grande Division with headquar-
tiers at San Marcial.
Mr.. Mac Kie (Trainmaster Mac Kie,
now, if you pleased has been in To-
peka with the Santa Fe for the last
five years in the position of chief
clerk to the general superintendent.
His work in direct association with
the operating officials and the train
men and enginemen of the road has
given him a valuable experience which
coupled together with his natural rail-
road ability has been recognized by
the Santa Fe.
Fred Mac Kie started railroading
with the Union Pacific in Wyomin g
about twelve years ago serving in a
number of capacities on the bottom
of the ladder" Ten years ago he
left the Santa Fe to take a position
of stenographer to the late ]. E. Hur-
ley who was then on the Coast lines
of the Santa Fe.
After his work with Mr.. Hurley,
Mac Kie went to the office Of ]. w.
Kendriek, vice president of the Santa
Fe in Chicago. Here he held the re-
sponsible position of assistant to chief
clerk in the office of the vice president
of the road.
Later Mr.. Mac Kie went to the IIli-
nois division at Chilicothe as chief
clerk to the superintendent. Five years
ago he left this position to take up his
present work as chief clerk to General
Superintendent Fox. Mr.. Fox is now
general manager of the western lines.
The promotion of Fred Mac Kie to
trainmaster of the Rio Grande divis
ion is a result of the recent change in
| officials all over the western and east
ern lines caused by the death of James
E. Hurley, late general manager of
the eastern lines.
Mac Kie has been a steady rail-
| road man and a valuable man in the
office of general superintendent. In
being given the position of trainmas-
master the Santa Fee official heads have
started Mac Kie on the one substan-
| tial ladder of railroad work-that of an
official in the operating department.
Railroad friends of Mr.. Mac Kie over
| the lines of the Santa Fe are now hold
| ing their ears to the ground to hear of
further advancement and promotion for
the popular young official.

can doubt that the teacher who at
tends these meetings faithfully has
earned her salary just as much as If
she were in the school room, and her
increased efficiency and professional
spirit, will bring ample returns for the
time and money expended.
Undoubtedly after the experiment
of last year. you appreciate the great
benefit such meetings afford, and real
ize that every teacher who attends
and gathers anything in added knowl-
edge or interest or power of teaching,
will return to your school stronger
and more capable instructor.
Therefore, it is strongly urged that
you say again this year to your corps
of teachers that they may have the
necessary time to attend this meeting,
without any reduction of salary for
time thus spent in professional service
and training outside of the school
room.
However, it is recommended that
this permission be granted with the
provision that this allowance for time
be given only to those who present to
your board a certificate of enrolment,
signed by the secretary of the associa-
ton. BY thus encouraging your teach
ers to attend you will not only confer
a great benefit upon the cause of edu-
cation through the association, but you
will also render a definite and valuable
service to YOUR own schools

STANLEY AND STUBS.
They Hold Conference Which Is
Rather Chilly.

Ex-Governor Stanley called on Cow
ernor Stubs at the state house this
morning The meeting between these
distinguished political enemies was
ABOUT as friendly and formal as that
between Roosevelt and Taft a few
weeks ago The politeness of the greet
ing was fringed with frost. The hand
snake had icicles clinging to the caves.
Inc good humored repartee bordered
on the edge of sarcasm.
Stanley looked at the pictures of the
ex-governors that adorn the executive
offlces and remarked especially upon
the likeness of Governor Stanley. The
best governor Kansas ever had" ne
murmured.
YES" agreed Governor Stubs. but
we came very near turning that picture
to the wall last summer
Il think you did turn it to the wall,
replied Stanley with a grimace.
Governor Stanley, it will be remem-
bered, took the stump for Wagstaff In
the primaries, and his speech at the
Wagstaff conference last spring when
he wrapped the flag about the form of
the Montgomery county candidate was
his masterpiece. But Stubs carried
Sedgwick. SANKEY'S own county, not
withstanding, by a larger majority
than he did two years ago over Leland.
Governor Stanley is out of politics at
this time and had very little to say
about the fall campaign. He will sup
port the ticket, he said but has not
changed his views as a regular on ma
tional issues The ex-governor was
primary campaign on account of i'll
ness. He stiIl shows the effect of his
sickness, but declares that he is feeling
much better since the cooler weather.

AFRAID OF HEARST.
Democrats Fear He Will Oppose Gay
nor in New York.

Rochester, II. Y, Sept. 26.-Candi-
dates for the nomination for governor
at the Democratic state convention to
meet here Wednesday are. opening
headquarters. The names most men
toned are Mayor Gaynor of New
York; Thomas NJ. Osborne of Auburn;
Representative William Sulzer of New
York, and Representative James F.
Ravens of Rochester.
At this early date only two matters
appear likely to interfere with the
smooth sailing for which the leaders
plan. They are: William r. Hearst
and his following and the progressive
Democracy. From his utterances the
leaders expect Mr.. Hearst will oppose
Mayor Gaynor, both for nomination
and election. The progressive Democ-
racy is not to be confused with the
Democratic league which meets here
the same evening as the Democratic
state convention. The league advo-
Gates direct nomination but in less
radical form than the progressives.
The organization has maintained
that it is not interested in candidates.
Among it's leading members are Alton
B. Parker, who as temporary chair
man, will make the keynote speech, and
E. M. Shepard, who has been at work
at the tentative platform. T. NJ. Os-
borne is the chairman of the league.

LUNCHED WITH TAFT.
Kansas Senator Only One Received by
President Sunday.

Washington. Sept. 26.-Although Presi-
dent Taft reached Washington Sunday his
private secretary, Mr.. Norton, deferred
his official arrival until this morning.
Come around at II a. M said the pri-
vate secretary to all callers-save one.
This single exception was a senator
from kanSas-Charles Curtis.
Curtis was worried by the recent an
nouncement from Beverly, Following upon
the heels of so many insuregent Repub-
lican victories in primary elections, that
henceforth the president would bow down
to the wishes of insurgent senators in
insurgent states. This Included Kansas
and Taft promptly appointed Bristow s
man postmaster at Salina, Kan.
Therefore Mr.. Curtis came pOsthaSte
hither. The Kansan would not disclose
in detail the precise nature of his talk
with the president. However, Curtis was
admitted, and, Furthermore was hidden
to luncheon. Afterwards he seemed
smiling and cheerful and of the bpin-
ion that he would get his due from Taft
in Kansas affairs. Whether Taft has
again turned to Curtis and will again turn
down Bristow as a Kansas adviser, re-
mains to be seen. Just half the presi-
dents guests for his cabinet house
warming were in Washington last night.
Knox MacVeagh. Ballinger and Wilson
were on hand. Hitchcock, Meyer, Wick
ersham and Nagel are expected today.
Secretary Dickinson. the only one who
can not be present, is returning from the
Philippines.

They Are Fairly Treated.

Washington Sept. 26.-Reports on the
conditions of Catholic charities from
practically all sections 1T the country
were read today at the forenoon ses-
sion of the first national conference of

lie university of America and presided
over by James F. Kennedy of Chicago

question of fairness or unfairness or
state charity organizations and instt-
buttons to Catholic interests.
Practically all of the reports showed
an absence of prejudice on the part OF
the officials and declared the admins
trations of state boards of charities
were fair and just and there was no
effort on the part of state institutions
to interfere with the religious and
spiritual interest of Catholics.

NEW YORK, July 15.--Old ICY

the Cleveland Americans is having
the hardest job of his life winning the
just one game necessary to give him
500 victories since entering the big

Young, who began his professional
career In the meadiveal days has won
499 games In the years he has been
a major / Lacquer and he is awfully
anxious to recch and pass the FIVE

four to one.
Young says he is still in the game
and will not give up hope that before
long he will have "copped" the need
ed game.
