Oyster Bay, March 2.-Theodore
Roosevelt dropped politics today and
took a rest in preparation for the
campaign before him. He said he
hoped to spend most of the next fort
night at home, with a few trips to New
York.
He took a long horseback ride and
put in a few hours at chopping trees
which, next to riding, is his favorite
form of exercise. Mr.. Roosevelt said
no change had occurred in the politi
cal situation so far as he knew.

New Mexico's Enemy Is Now
in Camp of Pro-
gressives
DIXON TAKES CHARGE MONDAY
Colonel's Headquarters Will
Occupy Large Suite of
Offices.

(By Special Leased Wire to New Mexican)
Washington, D. c., March 2.-The
acquisition OF Former Senator Bever-
idge of Indiana to the Roosevelt forces
was announced, here today.
The Colonel's headquarters were
moved into large suite of offices oc-
cupying the entire front of a down
town office building. Senator Dixon
signalized his advent as manager by
securing enough space for the full eX-
pansion of the campaign force. Sen
ator Dixon announced he would take
charge of the campaign Monday.
There is no question in any man S
mind" he said today, that an over
whelming preponderance of the Re
publican voters of the nation are for
the nomination of Mr. Roosevelt. They
believe that if Roosevelt is nominated
he will be triumphantly elected in No
vember and they are fearful of polit-
ical calamity to the Republican party
should Mr. 1aft nominated. Inc
Republican party owes the nomination
for President to no man.
The only hope of those Republi-
cans who are against Mr.. Roosevelt is
to secure, by the use of federal pat
ronage in the South, the control OF
delegates from skeleton political Or
ganizations in these states and the
suffocation of the real sentiment of
the Republican voters in certain north
ern states in the matter of The elec-
ton of delegates.
Il cannot believe there is any ques-
ton as to the ultimate result at Chi
cago."

FOR EVERY FAMILY
MEDICINE CHEST

To the head of every family the
health OF its different members is
most Important, and the value of an
agreeable laxative that is certain in
its effect is appreciated. One of the
most popular remedies In the family
medicine chest is a combination OF
simple laxative herbs with pepsin that
is known to druggists and physicians
as DR.. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. This
preparation is mild and gentle in its
action on the bowels, yet positive in
its effect. A dose Of Syrup Pepsin at
night means relief next morning,
while its tonic properties tone up and
strengthen the muscles Of stomach,
liver and bowels so that these organs
are able in a short time to again per-
form their natural functions without
help.
Druggists everywhere sell DR.. Cald'
wells Syrup Pepsin in SOC and Sl.oo
bottles. If you have never tried this
simple, inexpensive, yet effective
remedy, write to DR.. W. B., Caldwell.
col Washington ST., Monticello, ILL.,
and ask for a sample bottle. DR.. Caid'
we'll will be glad to send it without
any expense to you whatever.

Heavy Rainfall Causes Flood.

New Orleans.-The streets of New
Orleans we're flooded as neve before
in the city's history. In the Carroll
ton section, in the upper part of the
city, the water was six to seven
inches deep on the sidewalks. In the
downtown business section Canal
street and all intersecting streets were
flooded over the sidewalks and the
water entered stores on a number of
streets. There was such a strong
current in the city's streets, due to
the excessive rainfall, that many peo-
pie feared there had been an overflow
from the river.

ASKS REVISION
OF PATENT LAWS
TAFT SAYS WAY MUST BE PRO
vIDED TO MEET RECENT DE.
cISION OF COURT.
AN INJURY TO THE PUBLIC
The President Urged That the Pro.
Ceedure Be Simplified and That Eff
ficiency Be Not Impared-SeveraI
Reasons Given For Want of Change

Washington.-President Taft took q
decided step toward revision Of the
patent laws when he sent a specia,
message to Congress asking for all
thority to appoint a commission to
recommend revision of the patent
laws to meet modern conditions, and
provide a way to meet the recent
patent monopoly" decision Of the
Supreme Court. The patent laws have
remained practically unchanged since
1870.
The President gave several reasons
to show the need for a change. He
referred to the recent patent monop'
oily" decision of the Supreme Court
through which users of a certain ma
chine were compelled to buy from the
company which sold the machine a
certain kind of ink for use with it and
enumerated five other reasons which
he said demanded revision of the
patent law.
First, was that large corporations
bought patents for improvements and
suppressed their manufacture. "The
public" said the message, never re-
ceives the benefit of such inventions
during the life of the patent" The
President referred to the patent laws
Of other nations and wrote:
ut is worthy of careful c%onsidera'
ton, whether or not legislation on
some such lines should be enacted to
prevent our patent laws from being
made the basis of unjust monopoly ex;
tending beyond the legitimate pro-
lection to inventors required to pro-
mote science and the useful arts, or
the means Of sitting Improvement
and the progress of the arts"
The President urged that procedure
under the patent laws be simplifled
and that the burden of proving the
invalidity of a patent be placed upon
him who would infringe upon it.

A FEW SALAD OR LUNCHEON
ROLLS.

Bread should have a sweet, nutty
flavor, never a flavor of yeast. The
quick breads which may be made in
three to five hours are all right for an
emergency, but for every day living
the better bread is made with a small
quantity of yeast
Swedish RolIs.-Take. a.. pint. Of
scalded milk, a cake Of compressed
yeast or half a cup of the liquid yeast,
half a cup of luke warm water. three
eggs, a half cup Of butter, a half cup
of sugar, a teaspoonful of salt. Make
a sponge and prepare the dough as in
all biscuit mixtures made with yeast.
When light, roll into a sheet a fourth
of an inch thick, brush with butter,
sprinkle with sugar and cinnamon and
%currants; roll up like a jelly roll, cut
in rounds and set on end, side by side,
In a pan; when light bake about half
an hour. When baked brush with egg
and milk, or sugar and milk and re-
turn to the owe to brown.
Tomato BlscuIt.-Roll q light dough
made like French bread, of a cup OF
warm water, a half a yeast cake, a
half t%easpoonful of salt, and four cups
of -four. Use two cups Of the flour to
make the dough and half Of the water.
Knead we'll and shape in a small ball.
Make two cuts in the top about a
fourth of an inch deep, then place the
ball in a small pan OF tepid
water, cut side up. In a few minutes
the ball will begin to swell and float
on the top of the water. When quite
light, remove it with a skinner to a
bowl containing the salt and the rest
of the water. Stir in enough flour to
make a dough stiff enough to knead,
nearly two cups, and let stand In a
warm place until light. Roll out the
dough in a sheet half an inch thick,
cut in four-inch squares, brush the cor
ners with cold water, then fold them
over to meet in the CENTER. press the
corners down upon the dough below.
Arrange in a biscuit pan 80 that they
will just touch each other, brush with
melted butter; when risen to double
in bulk brush again with butter and
bake.
German Coffee C~ake.-Soften a
yeast cake (~compressed) in a fourth
of a cup of water; add two cups OF
scalded milk, cooled, and -four to make
a batter. When light add four eggs
beaten without separating, one cup OF
melted butter, n cup of sugar, the
Juice and rind of a lemon, a teaspoon
full Of salt. Knead and when light roll
in q sheet, butter and sprinkle with
almonds chopped fine.

Richeson Beqs For More Time.

Boston.-When informed by Sheriff
Quinn at the Charles Street jail that
he would be removed to Charlestown
State prison, Clarence V. T. Richeson,
the former Baptist minister who is
under sentence to be el%ctrocuted the
week beginning May 10 for poisoning
his one-time sweetheart, Avis Linnell,
went down upon his knees and begged
to be allowed to stay at the Jail a few
days more. The next regular meet,
ing Of the Governors council is on
Wednesday and although this is only
four days before the date set for the
ele%ctrocution, Richeson may be kept
at Charles Street jail until the council
has had opportunity to act.

which surround the two little Midway
Islands. These islands are 3,608 miles
from San Francisco and 4,237 miles
from the Philippines, each consisting
OF a strip of land of only a few acres
in area, one being known as Sand Is.
land, or Western Island, and the other
Eastern Island, the cable station be-
ing located on the former.
In laying a t~rans-oceanic cable,
every possible precaution is taken to
keep the line free from trouble" and
to this end the right Of way, II we
might apply such a term to the bot
tom of the sea, must contain no ele'
ments which will cause undue de-
terioration Of the cable. In this in.
stance, an unforeseen factor has
arisen In the shape Of q coral reef.
The motion Of the water swaying the
great cable to and fro over the rough
coral surface chafed the insulation
and wires sufficiently to the
break, the cost of repairing which will
amount to approximately 500, 600.
The population of Sand Island, the
home of the cable station, consists Of
g persons, namely, the superintendent
of the cable company and his wife,
one chief operator and his wife, a
physician, cable operators and a few
laborers, with. two cows, two donkeys,
and some poultry. There is no gov
ernor, no mayor; not even a con-
stable. 1t is a law-abiding community
and has no need Of any machinery to
enforce the law. At one time the
United States had a few troops there,
but they were withdrawn in the in.
terest OF economy, since their pres
eu.c served no practical purpose.
Before the coming of the cable sta
ton, the island vas totally uninhab.
tied. AS the result Of turning loose
two canl1y birds quite some time ago,
the island now has a wild feathered
family OF over five hundred songsters.

Several Others.

San Francisco, Cal.-When a sub.
marine cable breaks in mid-ocean, 1t
would seem to one unfamiliar with
such work that the location OF the
trouble would be a rather hopeless un-
dertaking. This problem was recent
ly presented to the Commercial Pa.
ciic Gable company, when its cable
from San Francisco to China, Japan
and the Philippines refused to oper-
ate. The question was very easily set
tied, however, by the use OF delicate
electrical instruments, which told that
the trouble existed on the coral reefs
