rest In months. The return to privacy
is delight to him and he made it
known that, 1t is his desire to drop just
as Tar out Of public sight as the public

Colonel Roosevelt went to Christ

one would come here and / should have
no peace or privarcy. I shall be at my
editorial office in New York twice a
week and any statement have to
make will be given out there"
He paused to survey the expanse of
the grassy slope slope that stretches
as far as the eye can reach from his
home on the crown of Sycamore hill.
There was not a sound to be heard ex-
cept the laughter of his children on the
veranda and the spluttering Of a
motorboat on the bay. The contrast
with the tumult Of the last few months
seemed to please him and he said he
hoped to screen his private life wholly
that he might have true rest for the
summer.
What did you think of your well

OF that
"What have you planned to do this
year?"
"Just that kind of question is what
I don't want to answer"
Colonel Roosevelt made it plain that
the daily pilgrimages Of interviewers
from Oyster Bay to Sycamore hill must
cease and that he does not wish a
single detail of his private life made

Saturday Colonel Roosevelt was up
early this morning. After breakfast he
went to the. veranda with Senator
Lodge and Representative Longworth
The three were seen walking energet-
ically in circles, the colonel leading and
talking in his vigorous style. Mr.
Longworth said afterward that the
colonel was telling them his exper-
fences in Africa and Europe.

Years ago Texas was represented by
two senator's. one Of whom called the

was represented in the senate by Car

the state should be called ARKANSAS"

insisted upon "Arkansa W." John j..

Lord Southey's Guillotine.

The most eccentric action OF an &C.
centric man was Lord S~outhey's cool
arrangement for suicide by means of
a guillotine. He had a magnificent one
erected in the drawing room of his
house in the Rue du Luxembourg at
Paris. The machine was OF ebony in
laid with gold and silver. the frame
work carved with artistic skill: the
knife, sharp as a razor. was Of polished
and ornamented steel. Preparing for
death, his lordship had his hair cut
close, and. clothed in a robe Of white
silk. he kneeled upon the platform un-
der the knife before a mirror and
pressed the spring which should re-
lease the knife. But the spring failed
to work. and the would be suicide de-
cided to give the guillotine to a mu-
scum instead Of making a second at
tempt to end his life. 1t is said that
he made an annual pilgrimage to see
the guillotine until the end OF his life.

London. Jan. 26.-Five hundred and
sixty members of the new parliament
have been elected. They are dis.
tributed as follows:
Unionists, 23S; Liberals, 213; La.
borites, 81; Nationalists, ~.
The announcement Of Unionist
gains continues with unbroken reg.
ularity.
Out of thirty-three results declared
during the urse of Tuesday they
had nine gains, OF which one was in
Scotland and n In Ireland. Against
these the Liberals were only able 10
get two gains in Scotland.
The elections will continue through
out the week, but the chances Of the
Unionists obtaining a majority. or of
the Liberals securing enough seats to
render them independent of the La
borites and Nationalist have now dis
appeared and it becomes a most In
teresting question as to how the Lib,

No IndisCfiminate Prosecution

Washington, Jan. 2G.-President Taft
has made public the following state
ment as to the reports that the admin
istration Is planning a crusade against
unlawful combinations of capital:
mo statement was issued either
from attorney generals office or the
White House indicating that the pur,
pose Of the administration with refer
ence to prosecutions under the anti.
trust law is other than as set forth in
the message Of the president on Jan.
:, 1910. Sensational statements as if
there were to be "a new departure and
an indiscriminate prosecution of the
important Industries have no founda-
ton.
The purpose of the administration
is exactly as already stated in the
presidents message"
The statement was issued after the
president had talked with James j.
Hill, the railway magnate, and had re.
ceived information that prices were
crumbling in New York under the vari
u reports printed. There was no
further statement from the White
House except the foregoing.

Re.uIt. From ssparator.

To get the best results from the sep.
arator the Kansas experiment station
urges observance of the three rules
which follow: First-The speed of the
bowl has an influence on the cream.
A change In speed from one separa-
ton to another changes the per cent of,
tat to the cream. Second-The TEN.
p%erature Of the milk affects the cream.
II the milk is warm the cream win be
thicker than IL 1t Is cold. Third-The
amount separated per hour Is another
factor. This Is especially important.
Tor II the milk Is unevenly fed into
the bowl the thickness OF the cream Is
vastly influenced. The amount OF wa.
ter or slIimmilk used to Hush out the
bowl will affect the quality OF the
cream. An these things tend to show
that the separator must be handled
with car and good judgment.

STRIKERS SCORE AT CHICAGO
Radical Reduction in Price of Many
Necessities.

Radical Reduction in Price of Many
Necessities.
Chicago, Jan. 26.-The meat strik-
ers" have won the first skirmish in
their battle for lower prices.
Radical reductions In the prices of
many necessities have already been
announced here and further declines
are expected Immediately.
In the wholesale prices Of butter,
eggs. potatoes. pork products and beef
cuts the reductions have been from 8
to s per cent. No one here doubts
that the meat strike" agitation has
been the sole cause of the declines.
The most radical decline Of all was
IN the price Of butter. Local butter
concerns which have been bidding 3S
cents q pound for the Elgin product
bid only 80 cents and were able to get
butter at that price.
The live stock and provision mar.
kets are being closely watched by
commission men. The packers, who
are under the double fire of the "meat
strike" agitators and federal depart
ment of Justice. are plainly uncertain
what to do. In the meantime prices
are declining rapidly. The provision
market was almost paaicky and the
effect of this condition was evident
when the board of trade opened. Pork
fell rs cents a barrel soon after the
opening.
