COMMISSION SEEKS SITE
 FOR GOVERNORS MANSION

Montgomery, April %. - Special )- Headed by Gov. Emmet O'Neal the man sion commission spent all of this after noon in looking for site on which to locate tine executive mansion. The com missions itinerary included some of the finest homes in Montgomery, as well as a number of lots in the suburban district
 Altogether 29 houses and lots were ex- amined by the commission this afternoon. eaving the capitol in automobiles at 3 o'clock the members of the commission visited Capitol Heights, one of the city's beautiful suburbs, the Country club ter ritory Cloverdale, South Perry street and a number of handsome homes in the heart of the residential section.
 The commission left on it's trip of in- specton without having come to any conclusion in regard to any certain To- cality, or as to whether it would build or buy a home. All of the lots and homes visited were carefully inspected. and though it could not be ascertained wheth- CT or not the commission reached any conclusion in regard to the matter. 1t Is Believed that steps will shortly be taken

TODAY NAMED AS TUBERCULOSIS DAY Suggestions Will Be Given From Pulpits Throughout
 the Country

Today is tuberculosis day, and, the peo- pie all over the country will be re- minded of this fact generally through the pulpits which are to devote their time and efforts toward enlightening the people as to the causes and the prevention of the dread white plague.
 The local ministers have all been pro- vided with instructions sent out by the National Anti-Tuberculosis association for the benefit of making comprehensive sug- eestions along the simple and practical lines of the work being done to eradicate the disease, and many of them will devote both services and all of them at least one towards helping in the crusade against tuberculosis.
 It has been planned to, hold the formal dedicatory exercises of the fresh air camp on Red mountain this afternoon but owing to many other very necessary mat ters to engage the time of the officers of the association, this affair has been post poned until later date which will be announced in ample time. The admins tration building which is the latest ad- dition to the camp will have been finished in time for the formal dedication within a very short time and it is hoped that the event can be furthered then

to provide the governor of the state with ar executive mansion.
 From all that could be learned, it Is understood that the commission is of the opinion that most of the homes that have been offered for sale are too high that many of them are not really worth the price that is asked. This may lead the commission to condemn certain property, which it is allowed to do, and establish the executive mansion on that location.
 Citizens of Montgomery are very much in favor of has ing this commission build home for the governor. It is believed that this would be more satisfactory in the end. as the state would then have mansion built exclusively for it's govern- or, and one that would possibly be more in keeping with the dignity of the office. Just what final steps the commission will take is not known, though It is believed that the matter will be definitely settled within the near future.
 Those who accompanied Governor O'Nea on his tour of inspection this aft ernoon were: pr. Thomas M. owen, di- rector of the department of archives and History Attorney General Robert O. Bricllell, Secretary of State Cyrus B. Brown, W. T. Sheehan, Judge NJ. H. Screws, and C. L. Covington superintend- ent of education of Montgomery county

Expression Recital.

The recital in Expression given
by the pupils of Mrs. f. A. Mccoy
of this city, at the First Baptist
Church Tuesday evening, was a
great success. The affair which
was strictly informal was attended
by a large audience of Mrs. Nc
Coy's host of friends in the town,
and the excellent program unveil-
ed some promising talent. And
above all it portrayed Mrs. Nc
Coy's genius in training children
in the akward period of adolescence
for excellent control of the voice
and graceful composure on the
stage, and the two excellent Mon
Iogues portrayed in their acting
and notation a rare histronic alb
ility of the trainer. The music BY
Kemper and Paul Funk was
smooth and harmonious and was
appreciated. The reading BY Miss
Alice Smith was excellent and the
impersonation was Of the quality
that holds undivided attention.
The selections by Maude and Edna
George were all good. and the
Monologue by Miss Edna, we
might say was above the average
for one of her age and experience.
Miss Francis Walker carried of
her ludricous Monologue in man
ner which the audience greatly ap,
preciated.
The numbers of Mr.. Hugh Funk
were a surprise to all and he is ia
be congratulated. The reading By
Miss Wartenbee was excellent, il
showing an excellent memory,

Miss Wartenbee possesses some
histronic ability of her own. Mrs,

piano upheld her part Id d pleasing
manner which helped to make the
affair a genuine pleasure to the
friends of Mrs. Mccoy.

hoped by the baldheads that he
would decide against whiskers for
sanitary reasons, but Wiley took ref
uge in his rights and declared the
battle a draw.
There is always the argument that
a bald headed man cannot help him
self, while whiskers are grown with
knowing and malicious intent on the
part of the wearer. He does not
have to wear them, and If he does so
Il shows his depraved and contumel-
ious determination. But even this
argument was questioned in part, for
the hairy men held that their rivals
in debate were so Economical in their
crime that they sat up nights sand
papering their domes in order to give
them a still more appalling luster
In the absence of all evidence in
the case the reader will agree that
DR.. Wiley was justified in calling the
affair a draw.

Roosevelt and "Duty."

Like Caesar on the day of the Luper-
cal. Colonel Roosevelt has again
refused the gold crown. 1t is stated
on what is said to be unimpeach-
able authority that he has declined to
accept the nomination for the presi-
dency in 1912 even if it should be
forced upon him, and it is claimed
that he will be loyal to his friend
Taft. The dispatches do not quote
the actual language OF the doughty
colonel, but they are positive in their
statement that he has given it out
that he will not allow his name to
be used.
Perhaps this is only the way the
colonel has of breaking the news TO
the country that Taft is to be a can
didate for a second term, but If it is,
it is about as necessary as 1t would
be to start a whispering match in
boiler shop
OF course, say the Roosevelt prop
agandists. it is just possible that the
colonel might reach the point where
it would be his duty to listen to
the call Of his country. This saving
clause is as old as politics itself and
it possesses the advantage of always
lying around handy 10 be used.
That Taft is to be candidate IS
now taken for granted. but if he
hasn't better luck in the future than
he has in the past in patching up the
differences and healing the breach in
his party 1t might happen that
duty" would begin TO call somebody
to the rescue, and nobody begins to
believe that Colonel Roosevelt would
be out of hearing.
