Taft's Caretakers
viii Not Allow Him
to Eat Apple Pie

EDGEMONT, s. D.. oct. 2l.-President
Taft wac up before o'clock this morning
70 make the first speech OF his three
days tour OF South Dakota, the first in
surgent state in which he has Travelled
since leaving California The president
spent last night in New Castle. wyo..
and left there at $3.50 a. m. for this city
His days program calls for stops at
Custer, Deadwood, Lead. sturgis and
Rapid City. The presidents train last
night was surrounded by Wyoming militia
men. Mr.. Taft did not retire until nearly
midnight.
The president &c in the best OF health
and is standing the trip remarkably well.
His voice is holding up splendidly, and
its wonderful carrying power constantly
Is being commented upon. Speaking in
the clear air of this hilly country Presi-
dent Taft can be heard a block away.
Undoubtedly the presidents health
largely is due 60 diet which has been
prescribed for him by Major Thomas l..
Rhoades OF the army. his official physi-
clan. Mr.. Taft probably does not know
the extent to which his food supplies are
limited. but so far he has not COM
planned. His fellow travellers in the pri-
vate car Tdeal-secretary Hilles, Major
Butt and Major Rhoados-are taking
something OF an advantage of their chief
in this respect. For instance, the presi-
dent Is denied all pastry.
Yesterday for luncheon the cook baked
savory hot apple pie. Everybody In
the car knew about It except the presi-
dent. when he asked for dessert they
supplied him with fruit. Then. when the
midday meal was ended. the consplrators
retired to one of the staterooms. where
table had been set for them. They
Toasted royalty on the masterpiece in
pastry, while the president sat alone and
neglected in the observation end OF his
car wondering what had become of his
staff. Every day that pie is on the menu
in the Ideal there Is a lot of tiptoeing
and the word is passed along the line to
stand by and prepare for something
Ike mother used TO make Some day
the president is going to discover the low
deceit that is being practiced upon him
and there Is going to be an awful row.

LINCOLN Oct 2l.--(special Telegram
Secretary OF State Wait today heard tes-
timony In the protest made by G. A.
Eberly OF Stanton against allowing Dan
V. stephens name to go on the popullst
congressional ticket in the Third district
at the coming election.
The contentious OF the republican chair
man are that no regular populist con-
vention was held and that therefore the
certificate OF nomination given him from
that party is null and void. The case
win be taken under advlsement and a
decision will be forthcoming the early
part OF next week.
Candidate stephens was represented by
j. II. Grosvenor OF Aurora, s. s. sldner
OF Fremont and w S. wooley, who was
chairman OF the populist district con-
vention. Colonel Eberly questioned the
legality OF stephens popullst nomination
ON further grounds that the populist con-
yention was called by order OF the demO-
cratic state central committee. most
Irregular proceeding he declares. j. II.
Grosyenor, chairman OF the popullst state
committee, oontended that the call for
populist convention did not originate with
the democrats, saying that was a mis-
take. lie admitted ON eross-examination
that the popuiist state committee had not
been called together TO sanction a Third
district convention. but that talk with
some OF the committeeman caused the call
TO be issued.

SEEKING THE OLD STUFF
Elk Pointers Dream of Buried
Treasure In the Missouri
River.

A dispatch from Elk Point s. D., says
that much interest Is being manifested in
the recovery OF the cargo OF the old
steamer Leadora, which In 1866 sank in
the Missouri near that place, with 100
barrels Of good whisky on board.
ii adds that several gentlemen have as
ISOLATED themselves and raised funds for
the purpose of exploring the wreck and
rescuing the imprisoned whisky. If they
are successful, they count on making a
small fortune out OF the enterprise, as
the whisky has been valued by some as
high as $4,000
We should think there would be a
good deal OF interest in the plan! And
we should also think that the interest
would not be confined to the little town
of Elk Point. There is a human appeal
in 1t which can be relied on TO cross
state lines and wake an answering thrill
from Canada to the Gulf OF Mexico.
Stories OF lost galleons Weighted down
with cargoes OF doubloons and pieces of
eight. and waiting at the bottom of the
sea, covered with coral and with shells,
move the souls of only a comparatively
limited number Tales OF the treasure
buried by Captain Kidd on island and
seashore awaken the personal thrill in
comparatively few.
But 100 barrels of good whisky. lying
tangled in the wreck of an old river
steamer since 1856, aging in good, tarred
barrels against the day Of their deliver
ance-that is something like 81! It comes
straight home to mems business and
bosoms with personal appeal that there
is no installing.
Down IN Kentucky the news that 100
barrels OF old whisky are awaiting the
fairy prince that is to awake them from
their long slumber win no doubt stir a
tenderness that Is akin to tears. In
Maine. the news win be heard with con-
flicting emotions. But nowhere il is
safe to say, will It be heard with indif-
ference-not even by the w. c. T. w.
There are, however. some extremely
painful thoughts that always intrude In
connection with these tales OF long-lost
whisky. VIII II not be spoiled as a re-
suit of untoward surrounding conditions +?
WIN not the long years have been wasted,
after all? May not the enthusiastic
rescurers find, after oil their labor and
expense and anticipatory relish, that they
have raised nothing more than a thick
syrupy, unpalatable stuff from the mud
or l0O barrels OF muddy Missouri River
water2
The possibility Of disappointment like
that is certainly enough TO make a man
hesitate before undertaking such an en-
terprise. II Is no doubt. this possibility
that accounts for the fact that the 100
barrels have so long lain neglected at the
bottom OF an old channel of the Missouri
RiyeF-that successive generations have
passed the great opportunity by and de-
voted their attention to other and more
prosaic enterprises.
However, II seems that Elk Point, s. d.,
now boasts men OF the true explorers.
the true Adventures freedmen who
are willing TO run the risks OF receiving
a great, possibly fatal, shock in pur-
suit Of the enterprise that appeals to
them-men who understand that he who
would greatly gain must also dare the
hazard OF greatly losing.-chicago Inter

Buys House and Lot
Soon After Voting
For LOrimer

CHICAGO, oct. 2i.-Members OF the
committee OF United States senators in
vestgating the I,orimer case, today asked
for the personal bank account of State
Representative Henry l.. Wheelan with
the Peoples National bank at Rock
Island. ILL.,, for the year 1909.
The order was issued for a statement
of Wheelans bank account, after
Wheelan had testified on the witness
stand that he paid $1,000 for a house ana
lot few months following the Lorimer
election, in which transaction he admitted
using twelve 500 bills, as one payment
Wheelan, however. declared that he
borrowed that money from ]. X Scott
and Thomas Cox at Rock Island, and de-
MED charge by counsel for the commit
tee that he had received money to vote
for Lorimer.
wheelsn admitted that he had repre-
sented the liquor interests in an anti
prohibition campaign In Rock Island
while . member OF the legislature.
wheelan said he was a democrat, but had
voted for Lorimer with Patrick Walsh, IA
contractor OF Davenport, Ia.
Attorney Healy asked him 10 name
some OF those he had urged to vote for
Lorlmer.
Former Representative Walter A.
Lantz of Chicago, Representative George
W. Alsculer of Aurora and former Rep
resentative Thomas II. Riley OF Joliet
were among those with whom I discussed
the matter" said Wheelan.
Former State Senator Syril r. Jandus
OF Chicago resumed the stand today, but
his cross examination was devoid Of spe-
cial interest
