NOLAN DECLINES PANAMA POST
State Department Relieved of EN-
barrassment by Action

Harry +. Nolan, recently appointed
secretary TO the legation at Panama,
who was lately arrested in New York
with Marion MacVicker young
Scotch girl. and later discharged by a
court, yesterday formally declined
his appointment in the diplomatic SER
vice. His action relieves the state
department officials at Washington
of some embarrassment. Nolan,
with his father, who came from Chi
cago, conferred with Acting Secretary
Wilson yesterday, and 1t was said
there was probability that President
Taft might be asked to decide the
question.
Later, however the problem was
solved by Nolan declining the appoint
ment, and the following statement
was issued: Mr. Nolan called at the
department of state today and ex-
planned that although his conduct had
been grossly mispresented and dis
torted as shown by the upshot OF
the proceedings in New York. never
theless, owing to the disagreeable no
toriety which had been given the mat
ter. he felt for motives OF delicacy
that he would prefer not to ask for
any appointment at this time.

Tho Saint In the Cave

The elder Vernet was once employed
to paint a landscape with a cave and
st. Jerome the principal elements
therein. Accordingly. Yernet did the
work as per specification, as he
thought, with st. Jerome at the en-
trance OF the cave. When the picture
was delivered, however, the purchaser,
who understood nothing OF perspec-
tive, said:
"The landscape and the cave are
we'll done, but the saint is not in the
cave"
81 understand you, sir" replied the
obliging artist. 81 will alter It." He
therefore manipulated the shadows 30
that the saint seemed TO sit farther
in. The purchaser took the painting,
but It again appeared to him that the
saint was not In the cave.
vernet then obliterated the figure
and gave the picture TO the purchaser.
who now at last seeped perfectly sat
Isfed. Whenever he showed the work
to strangers he would remark:
Here we have picture by Vernet,
with st. Jerome In the cave"
But we cannot see the saint" Wis
itors would object.
Excuse me. gentlemen" the proud
possessor would answer. he is there,
for / have seen him standing at the
entrance and afterward farther back
and am therefore quite sure that he is

in the south. 1t can scarcely be termed
renaissance of the road, for this is the
first birth. But, whatever 1t is, it is a
change, a pronounced blessing TO the
country at large.
The elements of good road construc-
ton we already had In abundance

ture. wise provider that she is, has so
distributed these things that universal
good roads are no longer, in the south
mere Munchausen dream.
In some localities, where there is a
predominance of sand. bitches dug
along the roadway almost invariably
provide sufficient clay to make first
rate sand-clay road. In other locali-
ties, where red. sticky mud makes wet
weather horrid nightmare to the trav-
eler the addition of sand and gravel in
the proper proportion soon remedies the
evil. In the extreme east, along the
seashore, oyster shells make splendid
roads. In the sections where there is
a quantity OF stone a steam roller soon
finishes to "A fine point Of perfection
what the rock crusher has begun. Thus
we already have in some parts Of the
south magnificent macadam roads
which rival those of the ancient RO-
mans. Steep, animal killing hills have
been graded, crooked roads made
straight. and good substantial bridges
span the streams. These things In
turn pay silent but splendid tribute to
the road pillow, the road scraper and
other implements In the hands OF the
convict labor of the south. Thus. in a
way, crime tends to decrease itself, for
who shall say that the prevalence OF
good roads. usherlng In a greater era
of industrial prosperity than has hither-
to dawned upon us. shall not tend 10

abiding citizens? II is. | think. quite
plausible theory. At any rate, it goes
long way toward solving the convict
problem In the south.

GOOD ROADS IN THE SOUTH
Evolution of the Movement in Last
Century.

The evolution of the road. like that
of the species. affords an interesting
study In science. AS well as in econom-
les, says John j. Douglas in Better
Roads.
The early settlers of our country
made roads, but they did not take the
time and trouble necessary to make
them good No one seemed TO have the
inclination TO emulate the example Of
the Romans. except in the matter of
conquest itself. No one wanted Ro-
man road. So for century or more we
followed the ruts made by our fathers
cart wheels, always shying around a
stump or lodging bowlder. with a
sort of reverential piety worthy OF the
celestial empire. And if any one pos
sessed the courage TO express his con
victions at the crossroads store he-if
he were an advocate OF better roads
was instantly and effectually squelched
by that passage OF Scripture which
reads in this wise: Remove not the
ancient landmarks which your fathers
have set up"
Thus we came to recognize certain
old stumps and stones as familiar and
necessary evils. We placidly plowed
our way through muck and mud. OBJ

ROOSEVELT FAvORS
THE RECALL Of
PRESIDENTS
Executive P0WerIess Unless
People Are With Him
SPEECH AT DENVER, COLO.
Primaries, He Says, Showed That
Third Term Talk Was
Bugaboo.

Denver, Col, Sept 19.-Col. Roose-
welt came out squarely tonight in
speech to $4,000 people packing the
Auditorium here in favor Of the re
call of Presidents" for inefficiency or
misconduct in office. 1t was declar
alton made in reply to one of five
questions propounded by William
Jennings Bryan, who has ben cam
paigning in this State for Gov. Will
son.
The boldness and novelty of the
proposition advanced by the Colonel
were such as to make the great aud
fence gasp and and then it testified
its approval by thunders of applause.
Here is what the Colonel said:
"As far as | am concerned, | should
be glad to have the recall for the
President Ii is not in the Progress
sive platform, and this is merely an
expression of my personal feelings.
My own experience was that / could
do nothing as President except, when
the people were heartily with me.

theirs, ceased 10 nave power OH-
der such conditions | would prefer
TO leave the Presidency unless in fair
open fighting on the stump could
bring the people round to my way of
thinking; such course think
would be to my advantage and to
theirs.
"As to the number of non-consecu-
tive terms a President might have,
every argument in favor of any limi-
tation of the terms Of the President
can refer only to consecutive terms.
Any third terms talk which refers to
non-consecutive terms is an utter alb
surdity.

talk of third term in this case was

SOME CHURCH HISTORY.
Interesting Facts About the No. Ben.

SALISBURY in the year 1868.
August ye latter end. A number of
Christians met together, after labor
upon certain points. We proceeded on
the following order: Cyperan Downer,
John Millington, Samuel Waters,
lchabod West, Reuben Ellis, Thomas
Madison, Lydia Bars joined together
in a most solemn covenant, as a
church of Christ, to watch over one
another in fear of God and to walk in
all the laws and ordinances of the
Lord as members of Christs church,
depending upon God for grace"
In this record we see the beginning
of that early church which was the
mother of three other churches, rails

and gave its name to the SALISBURY
Association, which is the seventh old

States and the third in New England.

Bennington. It's first pastor was Rev.
Justin 4 Smith. Its first deacons
William j. Watson and Isaac Gale. In
1916 house OF worship was built, the
site having been donated by one of
the constituent members, Deacon Ma
thaniel Hall The house furnished
with carpets, means for lighting,
bell and clock in the tower cost $4,000.
In this house which stood on the hill
at the head of West street. the church
worshipped for twenty years.
In 1865 the house was moved to its
present site and enlarged and i'm
| proved at an expense of $4,000. An
addition was put on in the rear so as
to admit the pulpit and orchestra
with a baptistry and robing rooms.
At the same time the vestry below
was put in and the heating plant.
This church has had several pastors,
the longest pastorate being that of
Rev. X. b. Tozer. from 1892 to 1905.
The pastors in order of service are as
