TONIGHTS THE NIGHT;
 BOSTON ALL AGOG

Boston, April 27-Greater Boston and vicinity, today, became the "cen- ter of the twist in the national poli- tical whirlpool. As a result, Boston was, today, agog with the anticipa- tion of hearing Colonel Roosevelt, to- night, with it's own ears, say more harsh things like those he said at Worcester, last night, when he ran alongside, grappled and opened with all his verbal guns on his erstwhile friend and protege, President William Howard Taft. st
 It was only today that staid, standpat Massachusetts realized, from expressions heard on all sides and es- pecially in the three Taft organiza- tion headquarters here and in the dates of the other party, that an au- dience of more than 10000 Massachu- setts voters had actually legged on' the ex-President in his repudiation of Taft's friendship and the Taft principles.
 Hit i'm between the eyes,, "rake him fore and aft" "slug him through the ropes" and expressions of similar kind shouted by hundreds in the au- dience before and during the Coloneps speech were mouthed over here again, today, in wonder that an audience in the state which had so enthusiastical ly welcomed President Taft two days ago would so gladsomely hear MT. Taft called 'disloyal friend" and MT. Taft's attack termed the ''crook- edest kind of a crooked deal and de- liberate misrepr presentation
 Not until, today was Colonel Roose- welt made aware that President Taft returns to Massachusetts, Monday. to comb the same ground the Colonel is working, today. The Colonel smil-, ed. expansively, chuckled and said enigmatically, Well, what of it? I'll be speaking up this way too.'
 There wasn't any doubt that the news was most pleasant to Roose- velt Members of his party say that the Presidents sudden decision to re- turn and especially to speak to Brock tons thousands of laboring men where no President has been for 75 years was an admission Of weakness.
 Colonel Roosevelt spent the night at w. Sturges Bigelow's home on Beacon street. where he will spend Sunday his speech for Pittsf1eld, Monday night. He left Boston for Brockton at 9:35, from South Station. where a great crowd gathered. He goes from there to Middleboro and Taunton by auto.
 Colonel Roosevelt speaks from the same platform, tonight, in the Arena, where President Taft "opened" on Roosevelt in the most forceful speech of his political career.

 LOS ANGELES Pyramid Only New England
 Temple Going West Two of Local Contingent Are Accompanied By Their Wives-Personnel of Party.

When the Imperial Council of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine meet in Los Angeles next week, Pyramid Tenn pie of Bridgeport will be, so far as is known, the only New England Tenn pie with representation in attendance. Eight members of the Arab Patrol and two official representatives left the city this morning to board the special which will take the eastern delegations to the sessions Of tho coun- ell. This train will leave Baltimore late tonight
 The Bridgeport delegation will meet other delegates in Jersey Oty early this afternoon and proceed immediate ly to Baltimore. They have got to arrive in Baltimore by o'clock to- night in order to make the special train. This train will comprise ten steel cars with staterooms for each member in the party. It will make the entire trip across the continent. From Baltimore the train will proceed to Washington where another delega- tion will board 1t. It will then go direct. to Kansas City.
 For four consecutive sessions Pyra- mid Temple. one of the oldest temples in the country, having been the sixth organized, has taken the full march ing patrol to participate in, the parade usually held at the council sessions. It was impossible to do that this year, however, because of the length of the trip and the time 1t would require, but as the temple had long ago determin- ed to have a fair representation at every council session 1t is gratifying to the temple that the delegation this year is as large as it is. It was feared that only a few might find it convenient to go. Nearly everyone who left the city today will be away for one month. They arc making. more or less sacrifices in leaving theif business interests. Pyramid Temple will be in the parade, with its banner flying, and will do honor to the one temple from New England. represent ed
 Philip L. Holzer. potentate of the Temple, and Angus Mackenzie are the official representatives. Mrs Holzer and Mrs. Mackenzie accompanied them

Taft Resting Up Ready to Come Back at Roosevelt
 Next Week-Fun Ahead

Brockton, Mass, April 27-Colonel Theodore Roosevelt in a brief speech here, today, advocated better laws for workfngmen and social and industrial justice. About 15,00O people greated him at the station and gave him an enthusiastic welcome.
 ''The power of the boss,'' he said, 3is conditional upon his association with the big financial interests which wish more than justice He is oblig- ed to do their bidding''
 Colonel Roosevelt said when he be- came President he found that the eight hour law regarding government employees was not rigidIy enforced and he saw that it was enforced. He said labor conditions on the Isthmus of Panama were now the best of any government work in the world.
 He said we can never get the type of industrial legislation we need as long as we have bosses and profess sional politicians in power

TAFT CONFIDENT OF
 OUTCOME IN MASS.

South Orange, N. J., April N-Tired completely with his eXertions of the last few days, President Taft slept rather late today at the home of Clarence HI. Kelsey here. At break fast he looked over the morning pa pers and read with some care Colonel Roosevelt's Worcester speech, but re- fused to comment on it at this time. It was expected, however. that he would have something to say in an- swer either at Trenton, where he was to speak late this afternoon, or at Philadelphia, where he will make an address tonight.
 After breakfast, the President went across to the South Orange Country Club where he planned to go over the links for his second golf game of the year. He was accompanied to the club by Secretary Hilles and his new military aide, Major Rhodes.
 The President positively declared to his friends today that he was well pleased with the outlook in Massachu- sets. He declared, it was reported, that he believed there was little chance of Colonel Roosevelt getting any of the delegates from the Bay State, but that he was going back on Monday in order to make his expected victory there most complete.
 Taft has been warned by his friends that a defeat in Massachusetts in the present temper of the country would assuredly mean his complete defeat for the nomination. Because of that he will continue his attacks on Roose- welt policies and it was quietly stat ed among the members of the party today that, in the speeches in the mill districts of Massachusetts on next Monday, he will explode second broadside that will prove effective to the organization in Tuesdays primar- ies.
 The President expected to get to the White House in time for breakfast to- morrow, but planned to stay there only until the afternoon when he would, If the arranged program was adhered to, return to Massachusetts for Monday.
 He will get back to Washington Tuesday noon, and about mld-after- noon will start for Savannah, Ga.

Where are the tablets of stone
upon which Jehovah carved the
Law for the Jewish people, amid
the Iightnings of Sinai?
Maybe you think one might as
well ask, where is the rod that
turned to a serpent in Aaron's
hands?"
And yet a recent discovery
makes it appear that these an
cient tablets, the most famous
documents the world has ever.
seen, are still preserved.
They are said to be hidden in
cathedral in the ancient city of
Axunn, in the Abyssinian province
of Tigre.
The story of their removal
from Jerusalem and their preserv-
alton by the Abyssinians is one of
the strangest tales ever told.
The Abyssinians have long
malntalneQ' tnat they possessed
the authentic Arc of the Cove
nant, containing the Tables of
the Law. This claim has now
been strengthened by the trans
lation into English, for the first
time, of the sacred Scriptures of
Abyssinia, the "Fetha Negast,'
or GLORY of Kings" written in
language so old that only a few
of the most learned Abyssinian
priests can read it.
This wonderful bible, of which
there is but one copy, not only
tells of the bringing of the Ark of
the Covenant and Tables of the

CHANCE SAVED EXPLORERS.
Mikkeisen and iversen Looked Like
Beasts When Found.

Christiania, Norway.-Captain Ell
mar Mikkelsen, the Danish Arctic eX-
plorer, and the engineer Iversen, who
were rescued on July II last on the
coast of Greenland by Norwegian
fishing vessel after having spent more
than two years in that region, looked
like wild animals when their rescuerS
found them They had spent the pre-
yiour winter at Bass Rock Island, and
it was there that the Norwegians
came upon them, in a cabin which
they had built.
The fishermen knocked on the door
and Mikkelsen and lVersen rushed out,
nearly naked, and with guns in their
hands, being under the impression
that the knocking was caused by
beasts of prey.
The two men had enough ammuni-
ton to enable them at all times to OBJ
tain food.
