WILL MUNSEY
REPRESENT
Us ABROAD
If THEODORE Wins OUT?
AmbaSSadOfShip Said to Be
Promised Him

Philadelphia, May 22-The Strong
News bureau of this city has issued
a statement which reads in part as
folliws:
Frank A. Munsey, the magazine
and newspaper publisher, is to be am
bassador to the Court of st. James if
Theodore Roosevelt is the next pres
ident of the United States.
H. J. Taft told a personal friend
that Munsey was supporting Roose-
welt because he had been promised
the position abroad. This friends
considered the story too good to keep
and today it is the talk of Phila-
delphia.
"Munsey's newspapers in Boston.
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washin =
ton have consistently supported Roose-
welt, and not single political edi-
torial has appeared in any of them
without first having been submitted to
Munsey.
1T is not known just when Munsev
received the promise that he would
be appointed ambassador to the court
of st. James in case of Roosevelt's
election, but it is believed here that
this promise was made during the
first part of last November.
Last October, in a two-column ed
itorial notice On the first page of his
Philadelphia and Boston newspaper
properties Munsey offered these prop
critics for sale, declaring he didn't
have time to give them his personal
attention and for this reason he could
not make successes of them. Shortly
after this Munsey apparently changed
his mind, as the employees of the pa
pers were notified that the publica-
tons would continue under the Mum
sey ownership until after the presi-
Dental campaign. and would support
Colonel Roosevelt"

; THE GIRL AND HER CLOTHES =
Mrs. McWhirter Tells Her Just :
What Risk She Runs BY I'm y
proper Clothes. =

Mrs. McWhirter, president of the
State Federation of Womens Clubs,
gave wise advice to Terre Haute High
School girls when she talked to them
about dress and told them how they
risked their health by wearing thin
hose, low pumps and blouse open at
the throat in all weathers; but talk
about health is not enough to induce
girls who know from experience moth
ing about illness to abandon such APP
parel. Argument of any sort, in fact,
has little influence with them as long
as the impressive fact remains that
other girls wear these things"
The rule of fashion is really stronger
with girls of high-school age than with
| their elders~ binding as it NAV be in
| the latter case Their eyes are caught
rather by what they consider the at
Effectiveness of any given whims in
costume than by its suitability to their
needs; they wish to be lnike all the

stage when a touch of individuality in
dress appeals to them. Mothers know
how difficult it is to persuade their
Young daughters that certain fashions
in dress are not appropriate for them,
vet, difficult as it is, mothers are to
blame for the gauze stockings, the low
shoes and the thin open-throated
hlouses, the wearing of which in pub
lie causes their daughters to be so
sharply criticised
If the is any place in which ma
ternal authority should be eXerted

know that at any season short-sleeved

CONTEST IS
settled SAYS
7. ROOSEVELT
OHIO DECIDED The MATTER
He Claims 1t Is the Popular
Decision

Oyster Bay, N. Y, May 22.-'The
result in Ohio has settled the con-
test" declared Theodore Roosevelt to-
day.
q can only repeat what | have al
ready said l infinitely prefer the
deliberate judgment of the people to
their impuiseive judgment and in Ohio
We got their deliberate Judgment,
and, as | have said, if | had to make
choice I would prefer the impulsivo
Judgment of the people rather than
the deliberate Judgment of the
bosses.
Victory in Ohio means that it will
be hopeless to try to beat us at Chi
cago by unseating our delegates who
represent the popular will in Wash
ington, Indiana, Kentucky and else
where, nor will it be possible for them
to win by seating delegations from
southern stotes which represent moth
ing but fraud" continued Mr.. Roose,
welt in a formal statement.
II am profoundly appreciative
of what the people of Ohio have done.
1t represents a victory not only for
the plain eople of the republican
party, but for every good citizen in
the United States, for in this contest
we have stood for the fundamental
rights of good citizenship and every
honest and decent citizen, no matter
what his politics, is profoundly con-
cerned in our victory for we are
lighting his battles"
Colonel Roosevelt said he had been
told by Walter Brown, manager of his
Ohio campaign, that the blind bal
lot" in that state represented at least
% per cent. handicap for the
Roosevelt supporters.
