TAFT is BITTER
RidicuIes Roosevelt and Calls
Him an EgOtist,
A FIatterer and a DemagOgue
and Charges InsinceFity.

Cambridge, O.. May 14.-Taft made
one of the most bitter speeches he has
made since he began his active cam
paign for a denomination here Monday,
He held Roosevelt up to ridicule, called
him an intense an6 dangerous egotist
and a f1atterer and demagogue.
Mr. Taft suggested that there would
be but little hope for the future of this
nation if Mr.. Roosevelt were waited to
the skies in a chariot, like the prophet
of old and there was no one left to dc
the job Mr.. Roosevelt said the country
needs him to do it,"
The presidents speech boiled over
with attacks and criticisms of Colonel
Roorevelt.
You'd suppose there was not any
body in the country to do this job that
Mr.. Roosevelt talks about but himself "
said the president, at one point. TITS
1, I, I, all the time with him. Suppose
you feed that egotism and vanity and
put him in office with a sense of power
and a disregard of constitutional re-
strictions, it would be dangerous for
this country.
IT hold that man a demagogue and a
f1atterer who comes out and tells the
people they know it ali. I hate fiat
terer. I like man to tell the truth
straight out and 1 hate to see a man
try to honeyfugle the people by telling
them something he doesn't believe.
do you think that Abraham Lincoln
to whom Mr.. Roosevelt so often refers
to whom he likes to compare himseff
and to whom he bears less resemblance
than any one 1 know in the history 81
this country, would have acted as Mr.
Roosevelt has and misrepresented me
as he has?
mr.. Roosevelt promises the millen-
MUM free from bosses. Well, then why
was not there a millennium during the
in hn
House?

Mr.. Longren returned yesterday
from Nebraska where he has been CIV
ing exhibitions. He is returning for
this engagement in order that the peo-
pie of Topeka may have an opportun-
ity of seeing his flights. He is booked
for the summer and will not return to
the city again this year. He promises
the best flights ever seen in Topeka.
Everyone will be allowed to inspect
the monster biplane which he uses.
The high quality of Mr.. Longren's
work during the past winter has made
him a wide reputation and he is fast
becoming known as one of the best
air men in this country.
The military machine which he built
and has been using in his flights is the
largest and most powerful machine
ever used in the west.
For Years a Motor Expert.
The local bird man. who will be
the center of attraction at the fair
grounds Wednesday and Thursday
afternoons, is 80 years of age, He
was in the auto business for II orr
interested in the construction OF
motors. For several years he in
dulged m motorcycle and automobile
races, and the move in the direction
of air manipulation was but a natural
step.
The big military biplane, the "Dixie
Flyer" in which Longren has been
making sensational flights, was built
in Topeka. The planes are 3S feet
from tip to tip. and the machine is
SO feet long. 1t is fitted with 60
horse power, eight cylinder engine.
The machine was at first called "The
Topeka IT, but the fame of the balloon
of the same name has reached far and
wide, and on this account there was so
much confusion that it was necessary
to find a new name. The machine
develops a speed at times of between
go and 20 miles an hour.
Last winter Longren was flying in
Texas in competition with Rodgers and
Fowler, and his flights were so brilliant
that he is now known all over the
country among the aviators as being
one of the best in the business.
Building New Racing Machine.
He is at present engaged in the con-
struction of a new racing machine, or
to be more exact, the machine is being
assembled by expert mechanics under
his supervision. This machine is ex-
pected to attain to a speed of from 70
to 80 miles an hour.
Secretary H. L. Cook of the Kansas
State Fair association, announces that
the grounds have been put in condi-
ton for the events Wednesday and
Thursday afternoons. The flying will
take place from the inf1eld, and there
seats.
Canvass has been put up along the
east fence so that tight wads'' will not
have an opportunity to watch the
flights from the street. The admission
price as before stated is but 254 cents,
and no extra charge will be made for
vehicles

Evelyn Thaw, departing for train
to New York, laughed at them and
! showed the whip handle. which she had
deftly and quickly stuck into her hair,
where it looked like hat pin.
That was the last time Evelyn Thaw
saw her husband and in the year fol-
lowing neither of them came into the
public eye. Evelyn Thaw lived in New
York through the winter, but toward
the end of spring she left the apart
ment in West Thirty-third street,
where succeeding filters of colors and
clay marked for her visitors her tran
sition through periods of devotion to
painting and sculpture. in both OF
which artists discovered her display OF
talent Her departure for Europe was
accepted as a move toward Paris for
the cultivation of her artistic powers.
She went to Hamburg, not to Paris,
and spent several months there, living
quietly with friends who had accom-
panied her from New York. In the
early summer of that year, 1910, the in
FAINT who has been with her ever since
appeared.
All who have seen the little fellow
from the time of his birth are inclined
to rave over his baby beauty. They say
he has bright, snappy, black eyes and
curly, raven hair: f1awleSs, rosy COM
pIexion and every charm that babyhood
can claim. During the considerable Pc
Rod of Evelyn Thaw's residence abroad
at that time the few intimate American
friends who CHANGED to meet her were
much impressed by the constant and
tender solicitu6e she manifested for the
infant.
They had never known her a devo-
tee at any shrine of domesticity, but
they found a new Evelyn in the girl
whose whole life seemed wrapped up
in the little boy in her home.
Thinks Only of Child.
No nna aver "a denied trih1Ifo IN
the shrewdness and intelligence of
Evelyn Thaw, and the wit and dra-
matte power she exhibited on the wit
ness stand when fighting for her hus-
bands life won her wide notice. All
her talents seem to have been directed
to the future welfare of the baby in
the months after its appearance in
Hamburg and of the first problem
how to be quit of Harry Thaw and
still remain mistress of some capital.
She believed when she returned to the
United States that she had found a
solution.
Immediately after Thaw had been
acquitted of murder because of in
sanity and sentenced to Matteawan on
February 1, 1908, a contract was pre-
pared between his representatives and
his wife. Under it she was to receive
SIS, 900 cash and $4,000 a year. Its
other terms affected her conduct dur
ing the term of the contract.
She was debarred by them from ac-
cepting any stage engagement or 9TH
er occupation which would place her
in the public eye and serve to con-
tinue by any act of hers the notoriety
she had won as a figure in the story
of her life with Thaw and before that
told during his trials.
The SIS, 900 cash agreed 20 be paid
Evelyn Thaw under this contract was
given to her in the form of three
checks, each for $4,000. Two of them
We're drawn by a member of Thaw's
family, one on a New York and one
on a Pittsburg bank. The third was
drawn by Thaw. These checks Evelyn
Thaw still has, because payment was
stopped upon them.
