THE Chicago News regards Governor
Hsrmon's skill at quoit-p pitching as one
of his best assets as Presidential csndi-
date. 1t says: Harmon has worked
himself into the presidential class as a
champion horseshoe thrower. Harmon
pitches quots in way to make the vii
lage champion take notice. Further, he
delights in the sport. Did any man who
ever sat on the shady side OF the village
blacksmith shop and watched cham
pionship game imagine for an instant that
the winner could do any wrong? Ifthere
is left in tnis tainted land a heart without
guile such man bears it. Furthermore,
his judgment of distances acquired in
throwing horse-shoes, is matched only by
mis- judgment in other matters. The
Democrats can get no more compelling
political literature than picture OF Jud
Harmon, with his suspenders down,
pitching horseshoes on the village green"

RUMORS UNF0UNDED
No Clue Found Regarding Elsie Sieg'
els Murder In Correspondence
Seized In Opium Raids.

New York, Jan, 31.-Nobody could
be found either in the custom house,
the office of the United States district
attorney or at police headquarters who
could substantlate the rumors that the
mass of correspondence seized in the
raids upon Chinese opium dens last
week yielded any clue to the move
ments of the Chinaman wanted for
the murder of Elsie Siegel in June,
1909.
That much of Importance in connec-
tion with the opium smuggling ring
and the connivance of certain police
officials in this and other cities had
been cleaned from the partial transla'
ton of the letters and memoranda and
that Collector VIM. Loeb now has all
of this material in his safe was mads

APPROVES RECIPROCITY
President Taft Speaks at Ohio Society
Dinner In Fsvor Of the Agreement.

Dinner In FeVor OF the agreement
Washington, Jan 31.-President Taft
in the presence of 800 members of the
Ohio society of Washington and their
guests at a Mckinley memorial dinner
here last night, avowed himself the
legatee of McKinley's policy OF reel
rrocity expressed in the martyred
presidents last public speech at Buff
falo.
Il am proud" exclaimed President
Taft, "as a son of Ohio to bring for
ward for approval and effective action
a measure carrying out the policy
which he proclaimed and made his
own at the acme of his great career"
Three justices of the supreme court,
several senators and representatives
in congrss and many others, promi-
nent in official life, heard and vigor-
ously applauded the presidents appeal
for Canadian reciprocity.
The president responded to the
toast william Mckinley"
To those who heard the presidents S
speech the conclusion was inevitable
that Mr.. Taft had squarely put up to
his party's representatives in congress
the responsibility in dealing with the
Canadian reciprocity agreement of ac
cepting or rejecting the last greas rub
lie policy beQueather to them by Presi
dent Mckinley.
President raft's speech WAS at the
dinner of the Ohio society in Washing
ton. Associate Judge Day of the Unit

THE disagreement in the Schenck case
at Wheeling was not wholly unexpected,
although the general impression seemed
to favor verdict of absolute acquittal.
The hanging out of one juror against
acquittal, however, makes another trial
necessary If it is insisted upon it, which
is not likely. Public opinion is decided
ly with the defendant, especially in the
community in which the parties reside,
and the releasing of Mrs. Schenck on her
own recognizance would seem to indicate
that the country has heard about the last
of the case and is not likely to be inflicted
with much more of it. Schenck has in.
stituted divorce proceedings.

ALTHOUGH it is not definitely known,
it is generally understood, that the next
primary election will be held in June
There is likely to be legislation at this
session of the legislature changing the
time of holding primary elections until
September, but it is assumed that, mas
much as many county candidates have al
ready opened their campaigns, it will
not be made effective until next year
says the Punxsutswney Spirit, and thai
conclusion would seem to be the sensible

LUNA PARK.

The big cool, forest-surrounded grounds
of Luna Park have attracted goodly
crowds from Washington and adjacent
points nightly since it opened for the
summer season. A number Of new anG
novel forms Of entertainment have been
added for this weeks programme. Among
them is the appearance of Miss Clara ].
Taylor, a Lilliputian, and a musician of
note. Miss Taylor probably is the small
est. and at least one Of the cleverest mu-
sicians in this country. Her playing of
the chimes and marinbaphone, an enter
tainment she gives each night at Luna
Park, has delighted the crowds visiting
there. The Alfreno family Of high-wire
walkers commenced the third week of
their engagement at the park last night.

THE COSMOS.
E R. 8.

Capacity audiences afternoon and even
ing greeted the first performance of
"Pinafore." or rather the one-act version
of that opera that is heading the bill
at the Cosmos this week. 1t is a re-
markably good version, too. containing
all of the wen remembered tunes and
practically the entire story. The prin-
cipal characters are all we'll drawn and
well sung. The entire company has
been recruited from the ranks of WASH
ington singers. One of the most ap-
plauded features is the introduction of
an old-tIme Sailors Hornpipe," by the
.Midshipmite," little Miss Mccormack.
The production has been staged under
the direction OF H. z. SALESMAN, with
the orchestra under A. j. Maxwell. A
spectacular singing act is offered by
Jesse Bell, as the Girl on the World"
The act opens with a special scene, THE
Shower of Roses" with electrical effects
and appropriate songs An old-time
ballad in a spot" comes next, and then
a grand Transformation in which THE
Girl is seen riding a huge globe that
seems to float through space. John
Yeager, a dancer, whose efforts were
generously rewarded; Dottie Farmer, a
vivacious singing comedienne, and the
Turney Trio, in a novelty club juggling
and hoop-rolling exhibition, complete an
excellent show.
