WASHINGTON, December S0.-Far
sighted politicians are trying to pave
the way for renewal of the entente
between President Taft and ex.Presi.
dent Roosevelt 1t is evidenced in
recent statements that there has been
no i'll will between the two men and
that wicked political writers are solely
responsible for the public impression
to the contrary. There seems little
doubt that the President would wei,
come reconciliation and there are
hopes that ex.President Roosevelt may
be similarly minded.
The reasons are not far to seek.
Cordial cooperation in political matters
between those leaders-in-chief would
make materially for party harmony all
along the line. 1t might not bring
the factions together, but it would help.
Above all things else just now, the
captains of the voting forces want to
lay the foundations for united action
The efforts do not proceed from any
fears that Colonel Roosevelt will loom
again in the presidential running AS
far as that is concerned there appears
to be very general agreement at Wash
ington that he is down and out. Wheth'
er the Colonel was really responsible
or not in large part for the licking his
party received in November, the rank
and file put much of the blame at his
door.
Certainly Has.
But the Colonel still has a following,
a very large following. He is in the
same category in that regard with
Bryan and Hearst, except that the Col
onel's personal following is probably
much larger than the other two com
bined can command. Administration
Republicans know how necessary the
votes of the Roosevelt supporters will
be when the next presidential election
is held.
The strife for delegates to the next
national convention will be in full
swing before many months. Undoubt.
edly preliminary maneuvering for ad-
vantage in obtaining delegates is now
under way. Contentious between Taft Is
friends and Roosevelt's friends in these
preliminaries would be regarded as I'M
fortunate in this preliminary maneuver.
ing because it would make a cordial
pact more improbable by the time the
convention assembled and the big cam
paign against the Democracy was in
augurated.

differences crop out cOnspicuously il

the merchants association of San Fran

its interest and influence in the exposi-

LAYS AN EGG SUNDAY.
Ottawa Hen Rests Six Days Preparing
for Event.

Ottawa, Kan, April 14.-You have
heard of the hen that produced eight
eggs a week-'1aid one egg every day
and Sundays she laid two" Jim Tur-
ner, who divides duties with the coun-
ty clerk, has a hen that for extra ordi-
nary effort holds royal flush in the
game of freak production. This Tur-
ner hen regularly and unvaryingly sup
plies an egg that weighs nearly five
ounces and is almost as big around
as a baseball. Nor is it of the freak
double-yolk variety-it's a brobding-
nagian ovufn of typical shape.
AS if to compensate herself for this
extra ordinary effort and to keep up
the average of production, the hen
produces but a single egg per week,
and the further peculiar and perhaps
significant fact is that the eggs are
regularly produced on Sundays.

Lindsborg Attorney Trying to Prove
His Sanity

Mcpherson, Kan, April 14.-John
F. Hanson, the Lindsborg attorney,
who is charged with being insane, is
on trial here. Hanson consumes a
great deal of time in reciting the de-
tails of the different cases in which
he has appeared and tries to show he
has been mistreated and where the
courts have been wrong in their views
of the cases as presented by him. He
insists that he is right and that the
court is wrong and that there is an
opposition to him in whatever he does
and that he is justified in pursuing the
tactics he has in the past by reason
of this opposition. Hanson claims that
as he is on the inside and knows the
facts in the different cases that no
man is more capable of judging of the
merits of the cases than himself. Han
son took the stand yesterday right
after recess and at s o'clock he had
not finished his statements.

Stark'S body was sitting in the chair

of blood under the chair and a revolv-

from the chair, on Stark's left, told
Mrs. Stark at a glance what had hap
pened-that is that her husband had
