A negro boy walked into the Juven-
lie Court yesterday afternoon with q
26-cent piece clutched tightly in one
grimy hand. His head and feet were
bare, aud he wore q much-patched
pair of undersized breeches and a
thin waist.
With his teeth flashing like pearls
amid their setting Of ebony. he asked:

WIRELESS APPR|SES
PRESIDENT PARTY
Of CAPITAL EVENTS
Taft and Senators Now on
Cruise Gratified at Reel
procity Situation.

President Taft and the party Of eight
Senators with him who are on the At
lantic on the yacht Mayfiower. are keep
ing In touch with Washington by wire
less. They knew Of the Senate vote
yesterday on the free meat amendment
to the reciprocity bill and that the
amendment had been defeated within a
short time after the vote was taken.
The President and Senators with him
apparently look on that vote as marking
distinct progress toward the end Of the
reciprocity fight.
The following wireless dispatch re-
eeived by The Times today from Private
secretary Hilles showed the party was
steaming up the coast from Hatteras
toward the capes of the Chesapeake
this forenoon and expected to enter the
capes about noon.
"Mayhower party was kept in touch
with Senate by wireless. Senators graf
lhed at progress made toward vote on
reciprocity. Party sat on deck in moon
breeze blowing. The Mayhower went as
far south as Cape Hatteras. Should
pass through the Chesapeake capes at
noon today: Due in Washington 7
o'clock Monday morning.
While Mr.. HIlles does not specifically
say President Taft is gratified at the
progress on reciprocity and the turning
down of one of Senator Cummins'
amendments, there Is no doubt as to the
Presidents sentiments on the matter
1t is believed here that in the course
Of the trip the President and the SEN
ators with him will discuss the whole
ramificatiOns Of the tariff situation now
before Congress. This will apply not
alone to reciprocity, but to the separate
schedule bills. 1t was the belief when
the party left that the President might
on this trip come to some definite con-
clusion as to what course he would take
on any separate bills that might be
passed

Greatest Fleet Ever Sta

PROVINCETOWN, Mass. July s.
This quaint little town on the tip end
of Cape Cod today harbors the largest
fleet of warships ever assembled in
New England waters. When all the
ships en- route have arrived, the biggest
fleet Of fighting craft ever rendezvoused
in one port, in the world, will be swing
ing at anchor in the harbor. More than
1000 officers and sailors are here.
On July IA. 1t Is expected the four
dreadnoughts which were in England
during the coronation festivities will
arrive. The fleet includes the Delaware,
Louisiana, Kansas, and the New Hamp-
shire. There probably will be twenty
one or twenty-five battleships in Ad-
miral Osterhaus' feet, before the naval
assembly is over.
The big ships of war have layoff
of about a week more at this port. Then
they will get away for other points,
some to take aboard the naval reserves
of the Eastern States, others to cruise
along the waters about Nantucket,
Martha's Vineyard, and Long Island.

RACE OF ELEPHANT
AND DONKEY CALLS
OUT TOWN POLICE
Jam at Ferry in Staten
Island as Judy Tries
mot to Cross"

TOTTENVHLE, Staten Island, July
Study, Fred Thompson's pet ele-
phant, which is bearing the colors
of Mr.. Thompson and the Repub-
Iican party in g race to Washing
ton against a donkey, Jenny II,
wearing the colors OF Mr.. Thomp-
son and the Democratic party, was re-
spopsibIe for an outburst here.
1t is said there is a little bet on be-
tween Mr.. Thompson and Uncle Joe
Cannon as to the result Of this particu-
lar White House race. The animals left
Luna Park at 9:15 o'clock Friday night.
Just where Jenny II was when Judy
hit Tottenvtlle nobody seemed to know,
but she had no part in the proceedings
there.
Judy sailed quietly up the ferryhouse
at Tottenville from which the boats run
to Perth Amboy. with q green light on
her starb'rd side and a red light to
port. Then she took a good look at the
boat which was to carry her over to
Jersey and refused to bulge.
Town Watches Elephant.
All Tottenville had come trailing to
the ferryhouse at Judy's heels, and all
Tottenville gathered about her as
her driver used all the tact he could
muster to coax her on the boat. Atten-
ton was diverted from the beast for
moment when the two hack horses that
have stood at the ferry of and on since
shortly after Tottenville was discov-
cred and have been a part of every
wedding party and every funeral pro-
cession in the village since that time
wilted at the strange slght- MeanWhlle
automobiles waiting to board the same
boat banked UP behind the elephant anu
continued to wait.
It was the $50 o'clock boat which
Judy's driver tried to get her TO poaFo,
but the boat finally went on without
her and her driver turned her 10 one
side, where she blocked the entrance
to the only saloon in the neighborhooo.
Tries Another Method.
When the 9:15 o'clock boat came
along the driver tried another method.
He started Judy for the boat as be-
fore and let her stand just in front of
it without further urging. Then he
-notioned to the chauffeurs Of several
Automobiles behind him and they came
on, their horns footing fearsomely.
The elephant moved forward to escape
the honking things at her rear and
found herself on the boat. Once aboard
she settled herself down to make the
best Of 1t.
The crowd, had become so great
about the ferryhouse that somebody
telephoned to the police station and
captain Russell came down at the
head of his men. They cleared a road
way for the automobiles and got the
crowd back where a little side move
ment on the part Of the elephant
would not hurt anybody. 1t was the
first real excitement the captain had
nad in his new job.

Scheme to Cool Cities
Held Not Feasible Here

Cooling the paved sections of the city,
the hot alleys and tenement house dis
tricts by flushing them with pure water,
must be done entirely by the Street
Cleaning Department with its regular
equipment of street cleaning devices,
according to advices received from the
Fire Department This afternoon
When the attention was called to the
department that in other cities the
fire department had assisted by playing
streams of water onto the hot pavements
IL was stated that such a scheme is
not practicable here. The place for
the tiremen is at the fire house,: said
the Deputy Chief. In case of a fire
they would have great difficulty in
making time if they were working at
sprinkling the pavements"
Considerable effort has been made bv

of Edward B. Gosnell, who departed this

Two years have passed and still We miss
him;
Some may think the wound Is healed,
But they little know the sorrow
That lies within our hearts concealed.
The flowers that lay about his grave,
May wither and decay,
But fresh and green his memory
Within my heart shall stay.
We miss him and mourn him in silence
unseen
And dwell on the memories Of joy that
have been.
Unknown and forgotten by some he may be
But the grave that contains him is re-
membered by me.
