md OF OUTDOOR LIFE

New York, Aug 10.-Miss Julia Steel
French, an heiress Of an old Newport
family, niece OF Mrs. Alfred Gwynne
Vanderbilt. eloped with John Edward
Paul Geraghty, garage employee,
Wednesday.
Geraghty is the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
John c. Geraghty of New York The
father is proprietor of a small livery
stable here. His son, prior to the time
that he went into the motor car busi-
ness, frequently drove a cab for his
father.
New York society couldn't believe it
at first, but later in the day, when it
became known that the couple had been
found in d Connecticut village, ana
when a telegram was received by
Gerahty's mother announcing that he
and Miss French had been married at
Z o'clock iE the morning, everybody
settled down to the fact that Cupid had
been victorious.
The families are in ignorance of the
whereabouts of the couple. This aft
ernoon before official confirmation of
the marriage had reached Newport
Mr. Amos Tucker French. the brides
father, left Newport, evidently on a
search for his daughter Mrs. Alfred
G. Vanderbilt, aunt of tie eloping girl
was also called into the family con-
Newport in her large touring car head
ing evidently to SaunGerstown and
across the state into Conc ecticut. With
her motor car she would have been
able to reach Central Village. Conn, in
a few hours and overtake the elopers
if they are still at that place.
Detectives have also been called into
the case. After Mrs. Vanderbilt left
! Newport and had reached The other
| side of the ferry she was met by some
men who are believed to have been
/ from a Boston detective bureau
Mr.. Pember, the employer of the
eloping groom, is also out of town.
| Whether he has gone to look for the
motor car in which the couple left
Newport could not be learned.
Miss French is Of wealthy old fam
lily of the Newport summer colony She
is about 19 years old and very attrac-
tive. She is devoted to outdoor life
and a great lover Of dogs and horses.
At Newport or Tuxedo she was rarely
seen out without Il dog In New York
and Tuxedo, where the family usually
spends tn. winter, they own large es-
tates. Her father is connected with
many of the New York clubs. Her
mother who was a daughter of Mrs.
StuyvesaHt Leroy, with the other men,
bers CT her family, are wrought up and
worried over the action of Miss French.
Though Miss FTench's family has de-
clined to make any statement about
the elopen.ent, it is understood that
Miss French did not tell them any
thing about what she had in mind. 1t
was learned today, however, that Miss
ance with Geraghty, who is u years
old and that they had done about
everything they could think of try
ing to break it off.

THE PRESIDENT AND ALASKA.

No statement made by President
 Taft in Seattle is of more vital inter- est than what he said about the form of government Alaska ought to have
 and it k equally true that no state. ] ment made by the president tended more to emphasize his fairness Of opin' ] ion and broadmindcdness in dealing with public issues.
 i Referring to the speech he delivered
 In Seattle two years ago. he said his
 impression at that time was that AL aska would not make satisfactory progress until il has "a local govern ment that may act upon all local needs. but he did not then think the people of Alaska were of sufficient solidarity to justify turning the gov ernment over 10 them and hence he had favored a commission form of The president still holds that opinion, but he is fair enough to admit tho pos- sibility of error. and adds that he is willing to concede 10 Alaska "a par tial elective and partial appointlve government" for he realizes that il Is absolutely impossible for congress 10 meet all of Alaska's legislative needs.
 While the people Of Alaska have been demanding a territorial form Of government. the kind of government granted every other territory in the history of this country until our colo rial experiments began, they win prob- ably be wiling to meet President Taft half way and accept his proposal 10 create a government that is partially ei .ctiye and partially appointive
 !!tre is much to be said in behalf .of a'". Taft's contention that the sFa:seness of Alaska population. t1e laig"1ess Of the area. and the absence and impossibility Of social and pOllti- ca solidarity at this time. would all tend to initiate against the efficiency of local self government. in its fullest meaning local self government in AL asks at this time would be extremely difficult, and It really Is very grave question whether the people of the, territory could attain the desired ends fl congress should grant them the kind of government they are demanding
 lt would probably be wiser to ac- raDf fhn pragEHaptus car,nr,r,tz. ..,.. posaL Certainly the experiment sug- gested by him would be an improve ment over present conditions. IL would give to the people of Alaska such leg
