TAFT WANTS CHANGE.
Would Be Glad if Congress Took Ap
 pOintments From His Hands.

Washington June 16-The first au- thorftative answer to the charge that the administration uses the appointive power of the President to further po- litical ends was made by President Taft yesterday. In conversation with friends the President said he would be delighted if Congress would take from his hands the duty of naming collectors of internal revenue, United States marshals and postmasters of the second and third classes. The President told his visitors that noth- ing which Congress could do would be received more gladly by him than this act He would be happy, he said, if Congress would extend the civil ser- vice law to include such offices. Prac- tically every post up to the grade ot United States district attorney, the President told his callers, should be put under the civil service regulations He has recommended such action to Congress in past messages and said he expects to make similar recommends t1ons in the future. He declared his belief that there is a lot of 'hyporcisy'' in the charges made by Senators and others that a political machine has been built up. by appointments to such offices.

SENTIMENT FAVORS
CARDINAL RAMPOLLA
HE is LOOKED UPON AS THE
MOST ACCEPTABLE SUCCESS
OR OF POPE Plus

Rome, Aug. 17.-Cardinal Rampolla,
who is looked upon generally as the
most prominent candidate for the
Holy See in the event of the death of
Plus X, reached his sixty-eighth birth
day anniversary today The senti-
ment favorable to the Rampolla can
didacy is not wholly personal to the
famous cardinal, but is in part due to
a feeling that circumstances on the
political side Of the Vatican interests
demand at this time pontiff of Ram
polla's experience and abilities.
Cardinal Rampolla is an Italian by
birth and education. He was pro-
claimed cardinal in 1887, and a few
months later was named secretary
of state, in which important position
he soon established his reputation as
one of the leading diplomats of the
world. He has lived retired life
since the death of his former chief,
Pope Leo XIII, being head priest of
st. Peters.

CHESTER bunker HAS
RUN OF BAD LUCK
LOSS OF HIS WATcH, QulCsEY
FOLLOWED BY DISAPPEAR
ANcE OF CURRENCY.

Doubtless rightly, Chester Hunker
believes a hoodoo is following him.
Late last week Hunker went swim
ming in a water hole near Romero
vile. He left his clothes, of course,
on the bank, because that was the
only means of keeping them dry. In
the pocket of his pan-trousers
Hunker left his watch. When drip
ping with coolness he arose. from
the swimming hole he discovered his
watch had disappeared. And, to
prove that time flies never to re-
turn" the watch has not come back
to it's owner, like bread cast upon
the waters"
A few days after the watch had
been lost Hunker got hold OF a nice
little roll of money. He thrust it
so he thought-into the pocket for
merly occupied by the watch near the
waist band of his trousers. And
when he went to look for it, it wasn't
there at ALL" In fact, it was just
like the little boy who wouldn't say
his prayers" Hunker believes he
thrust the bills beneath the waist
band of his pan-trousers and they
escaped to the ground

Miss Jessie Mcdonald, high school
girl for whom private detectives, en-
ployed by her father here, have search

Miss Mcdonald, young woman of

year and a half in a small apart
ment adjoining the dentists office.
McDavid, who is married man, was
arrested on statutory charge.
Sobbing out her story to District At
torney Goodsell, Miss Mcdonald de
clared she had been held in subsection
through hypnotic influence, and had
undergone awful suffering. Almost in
the same breath with which she ac-
cused McDavid with having been a
cruel jailer, she declared that she
loved him.
Although detectives have been on
the case for fifteen months, it was
only last night that clews were found
leading to McDavid's office.
