broken into the papers with a theory
that the women who are kept in Turk

with any solo part, and takes this
method of advertising the fact that she

a waiting of their own.
Mr.. Taft's cabinet forms what might be called
a legal family. Most of the members are law
yers of the first rank. and it is an open secret
that they selected because of their high
ability. There no longer books nature and
books general history subjects in the Office IL
brary of the White House. New book shelves
have been put in and on them hundreds OF
the brownish-red covered volumes which beto-
ken the law book. 1t is said that cabinet meet.
Ings these days take the sembance of a
sultation of lawyers. AS example of this 1t
may be said that day the president in talking
to some newspaper correspondents said that no
matter what subject was preached in the cabinet
room at that the thoughts of everyone went
from the suggested subject to the Latter OF the
strengthening of the antitrust laws.
What the president said at that time is prac.
ficaly true of most of the present sessions OF
the cabinet for It is known that while Mr., Taft
is anxious to carry out the Roosevelt policies he
wants to buttress them with the law that
constitutional flaws can be found in them by
means of which after the best intentions on the
part IF the legislators, the guilty might find
means of escape.
1t must not be supposed for instant that be-
cause most of Mr. Tafts cabinet members are
lawyers, they have no avocations in life to turn
them aside frequently from their vocations. Take
the ranking member Of the cabinet for instance
Philander Chase Knox Tie secretary of state is
a devotee of the outdoor life, and is no less ac-
tive in open air pursuits than was President
Roosevelt, though II is true that Mr. Knox does
not care for the pursuit of game for the study
OF natural history.
The secretary of state, when he is not discuss
ing matters with the president, is not engaged
ia Strengthening out international tangles. is eth
er playing golf OF driving pair of fast. spirited
horses. There are few more ardent lovers Of the
noble horse" than Secretary Knox He rides oc-
casionally and he is not averse to taking five
bar red gate II his mount is jumper, and If the
gate happens in his way The secretary's chief
delight is driving. On his Pennsylvania farm
near Valley Forge, the scene q the awful winter
which was passed by the continental army under
George Washington Mr. Knox has many horses

also OF noted forbears.

sqaft's cabinet is a merchant. although in early
DAYS he studied iaw. Mr.. MacYeagh is not given
particularly 70 the strenuous life as It is viewed
generally he Is much Of a walker and has q
sore III nature which leads him aiield on many a

profited by the reading and while his garden per
haps is not equal TO that planned ana euiuVaIeu
by Mrs Thomas 1t contains many OF the flowers
of the kind that make pleasant what people are
given to call old fashioned gardens.
MIR. Taft consuts his treasury chief about econ
omies In government. 1t was Mr.. MacNeash VINO
was asked as soon as Mr. Taft took ofice' TO pro-
vide ways and means to save money In the diner
ent departments. The merchant cabinet MEMBER
had the advantage of a long business training,
and 1t did not take him long to discover that 1t
possible 10 many thousands OF dollars
by putting business methods in effect in the diff
ferent bureaus of government 1t was found for
instance, that good many bureaus of the depart
ments were in the habit of purchasing their sup
plies independently. The result of this was that
of them paying much more money
for some articles than being paid by others.
Reform in purchase methods has come and 1t
has come also in many other lines, the net re-
suit being that Uncle Sans pocketbook Is being
saved good many thousands OF dollars yearly.
Jacob NJ. Dickinson, the secretary of war in Mr.
Tafts cabinet, is a southern man and Demo
crat. II may seem little curious at first thought
but It is fact that the army officers in the main
are glad that southerner is the chief of the war
department Despite the attitude of some Demo
cratic southern members OF congress on army
questions generally. the southerners feel kindly
toward the officers and men of the service. There
is something in the military life that appeals to
generally outspoken against what they call
the danger of great standing army, the military
establishment as 1t is has their sympathy always.
and their support frequently
The secretary of war comes from that section
Of the country where everybody loves horses, and
he is no exception 10 the rule He is golf play
er also. and this fact perhaps makes him appeal
to Mr.. Tafts sympathies just much as does the
fact that the secretary is great lawyer Score.
tary Dickinson is not serving In Washington in
official capacity for the first time. Years ago
he was the assistant attorney general during the
last "a months OF the CIeyeand administration.
and he was counsel for the government afterward
in the matter OF the settlement OF the Alaskan
boundary dispute
When the president has a particularly knotty
problem In legislation on hand and needs to study
1t from legal standpoint, he goes over II himself
first, just judge on the bench does with sub
mitted evidence, forms his own opinion, and then
calls in the supreme court" OF his cabinet which
Is composed Of the great lawyers. Knox. Dickn-
son, WiekershaIn. Nagel and Ballinger II is pos
sible that Mr. Taft depends just as much upon
the legal opinion Of his secretary OF war he
does upon that OF his attorney general At any
rate the war secretary Is accounted by Mr.. Taft
