WILL THE BOB-CAT
. ".@ KILLER BOL17


The. continual howl that is going
up from Roosevelt and his boosters
over the primary "sutrages" and
the steam roller brigade methods,
says the ST. Joseph Gazette, mean
that preparations are in progress
for bolt at the Chicago conver.
ton.
Every ii ne anything goes wrong,
and pretty nearly everything seems
to GO wrong, the colonel and his
chorus break into violent invective
that augurs i'll for ,he harmnnies
at Chicago.
1t is true that Mr.. Roosevelt has
given out that he will not bolt the
convention. But what dues that
signify? He several times said
that he would not run run for
president again. Circumstances
alter. cases and T. RS promise is
not irrefragihle.
In Washington the belief is
strong that Roosevelt is bent or
defeating Taft and will not hest
tate to bolt the convention if it
goes against him, or rather when it
goes against him. There seems
now no possibility of is going any
other way. Washington cores
pondents. are frankly discussir e the
prospects jIs' As if Mr.. Roosevelt
had never said that he will not

independent republican paper, is

the party. 1t is only within the
last TWO days that men influential
in the party have heen expressing
this view aloud, although they
have suspected suc'r a movement
for weeks. The refusal of the
Roosevelt managers to abide by
convention and primary results
any where is pointed to as proof,

STEAMER FOR 1912

Jsnuary 10, lolZ, lDere was
launched at Glasgow, on the Clyde,
little wooden vessel 40 feet in
lengh and 10 feet 6 inches ir
breadth, says a London dispatch.
She received the name of Comet
because just at the time when. she
began to be built in the summer
of 1911 a remarkable comet was
visible in the heavens. That
comet is still referred to in
astronomical books as the great
comet of 1911.
The owner of the little boat was
Henry Bell, originally working
mason. who had seen al Carron in
1889 the first attempts at steam
navigation on board vessel which
was huilt for the purpose of tow
ing harges on the Forth and Clyde
canals.
Henry Bell was certain that it
was possible to employ steam. for
vessels intended for passenger
trade. But the diff culty was to
find the money. In 1900 lie laid
before the British government of
the day his plans for the construc-
ton of vessel that could carry
pass myers. But after waiting for
some years he found there was
no help to be obtaind from the
government. If there had been
some far-Seeing man about the
admiralty at that time the inven-
ton might have been taken up: and
Nelson in his later years would
not have had to wait on the wind.
when he went to attack the French
fleet.
Henry Bell did not lnse heart.
He went to Helensburgh, on the
Clyde, and there built snail
hotel which still stands. with ad-
ditions to it. between Halensburgh
and the North British railway
station at Craegendoran. lie made
some money at this hotel. and in
the summ.r of 1911 he gave an
order to Messrs. John Wood & Co.,
shipbuilders at Port Glasgow for
the construction of the Comet, the
first passenger steamer. The same
shippingbuilding firm that launched
the Comet in 1912 launched for
the ca nard line in 1889 Acadia,
the second steamer Of the famous
line, the Britannia being the first,
so that from Port Glasgow there
came the first passenger river
steamer and the second Atlantic
liner. istar
At length all was ready. and in
the autumn of 1872 the Comet had
the ssle passenger traffic on the
River Clyde. She was pronounced
a great success. But her success
brought imitators ard rivals, and
in The next year, 1913, there were
three other steamers on the Clyde,
all Of them larger and swifter
than the Comet. So that the first
passenger steamer in the world was
already left behind. as q result the
passengers chose t. 90 with the
faster steamers and poor Henry
Bell met the fate of many mother
inventor. His vessel was a success
from the point Of view of the
engineer, bu' she did not bring
the money to her owner.
As the Comet had been beaten
In speed on the Clyde, she was
sent to the Firth of Forth, and

Revolution Is

New York June 14.-Characterizing the Roosevelt leaders as bulldozefs and bullies, Hugh Hastings, acting for the Republican state committee today. issued a statement declaring jority on the first ballot in the Chi cagO convention. The statement fol- lows:
 "Advices from Chicago from the most conservative sources indicate that President Taft will have at least 60 majority. It is this knowledge that

 Every foul method MT. Roosevelt has charged to the President has fall- en to the ground and strange as 1t
 may seem, eventually has been link ed with his own methods. From the beginning his policy has been one of
 ruin or destruction. Determined to obtain the nomination, he has nos permitted language, barriers of any

YALE'S LONG LEAP
 IN HALF CENTURY
REPORTS OF SECRETARY SHOW REMARKABLE INCREASE IN REGISTRATION FOR ALL
 SECTIONS OF THE
 COUNTRY.

New Haven, June 14-Somewhat earlier in the year than usual the re- ports of Anson Phelps Stokes, Jr., heads of departments are just made public. MT. Stokes report shows that since 1862 the registration from New England has increased from 331 to 1869; the Central East from 1S7 to 902, the South from 12 to 1892, the Middle West from 46 to ASA, the Far West from to ITO and the Southwest from to 39.
 The report of Frederick s. Jones. dean of the academic department, shows the inferiority of public school men as compared with those from private schools when they sit down to Yale examinations. Of the freshman class, which has just completed its years work, 128 entered without con- ditions and of these 67 were from pri- vate schools and 27 were High school boys. Twenty-six attended both types of schools and came from other col leges.
 Dr. Russell H. Chittenden, director of the Sheffield Scientific school, says replies to a series of questions ad- dressed to various schools on the ad- visibility of admission by certificate rather than examination showed that the majority favored a reduction in the numDer or eXamlnaC1OnS. HIS suggestion will be followed.
 William H. Salmon, secretary of the Bureau of Appointments, gives figures for the first time, showing that there has been decrease in the number of applicants for tuition, at Yale. and he says that this is due largely to tho stress laid upon the re- mission of tuition to needy students as loan, rather than a gift, and not to any reduction in the number of self-supporting students in the univer- sity. Of the 1s9 applicants for ren1ls- sion of tuition this year, sixty-three chose the remission as a loan, while eighty-nine took 1t as a gift. Eigh- teen applied for ministerial aid and nineteen applications were withheld for various reasons A strikingly large number, 3s6, applied for employ ment during the last year. Of these, 333 obtained positions. From among the academic and Sheffield seniors twenty-nine have been placed in per manent teaching positions at salaries ranging from $7Oo and maintenance tt $2O00.

ONE WOMAN TO ANOTHER
Separations in Married Life-DO They Promote True LOve?-ShOrt Absences Relieve Sameness.

We all know the old adage-"Ab- sence makes the heart grow fonder" but doubt if many have heard the addendum ''of somebody else:
 Now whether this is true or not, I really would like to know. I could discuss it pro and con. for can cite two instances that uphold both the -ories. Therefore I will have to leave it to my readers to decide from their own experience and that per- haps of some one they know.
 I must confess am bewildered, be- cause right in my very midst as it were, absence made the heart grow fonder in the two absolutely inimical styles quoted above.
 In one case, a couple married ten years, and rarely separated for a day. were obliged to live apart, seeing each other only at long intervals. That absence, the rare, beautiful cores pondence it engendered, and the lov- gether, would tend to lead one to be- lieye that in order to keep a hus- band a lover, a judicious period of separation should be instituted each year.
 On the other hand, another couple, almost ideal married lovers, were forced into separation for a period of
 
 union occurred, the wife was oblig ed to seek through the courts a more extended separation.
 Now does this imply that had she stayed with her husband. he would never have sought companionship elsewhere? Or does it argue that he never really cared for her and was only held by ties of propinquity?
 To my mind a moderate dose of absence is good for any married cou- pie. But I do not believe in the protracted stays which naturally bring about new affiliations.
 If wife or husband were dead, the months and years would assuage the pang of parting. Many a one not deeply in love, or bound by con- science to strict fealty, lest affection drift elsewhere with dire results, when these partings are inevitable.
 The monotony of married life there is no denying it-demands a change once in a while. fully be- lieve that little separations key each man and woman to a desire to look better and act better when they meet after absence.
 Of course, on the other hand, there are wives who will argue If my hus- band can't be away from me a year, and still be as true to me as when he sees me every day, he isn't worth trusting at all.
 True, a man can deceive his wife as completely right under her very nose, as when he is a thousand miles away But taking absence as an ab- good for married couples once in a while to break into the daily routine and go their separate ways as an an- tidote to the sameness of the oneness that matrimony implies?

DEGREE FOR. GOETHAtS
Strongly-Backed Report That Canal
 Engineer Is on Yale List.

New Haven. June 1.-The fact that Colonel George w. Goethals. engineer in charge of the construction work on the Panama canal. has booked suite of rooms at the Hotel Taft for Tues day, June IS, gives more than ordi- nary credence to the report that Colo ne1 Goethals is to be the recipient of an honorary degree from Yale at Commencement on Wednesday. The fact that Columbia has given like degree would not in any wise prevent Yale from doing the same. although it is somewhat out of the ordinary for a man to receive degrees from two universities the same year. However, this same ruling would not seem to hold good in the case of Colonel GOe- thals, who has made such a remark. able record in charge of the work at the Panama canal. j0
