Mr.. Reds Family.

Mr.. Reds only daughter, Miss Jean
Reid, was married in 1908 in the Chap
Ell Royal at st. James palace to the
Hon. John Hubert Ward, a brother of
The Earl of Dudley and equerry in
waiting TO the king. This i%nternation-
nj event attracted an unusual amount
of attention. The king and queen
were there.
Mr.. Reid also leaves one son, Ogden
Mills Reid. who was graduated at
Yale in 1904 and recently took charge
of the Tribune.
In New York Mr.. Reid belonged to
the University, Century, Metropolitan.
Union League and Republican clubs,
For fourteen years he was the presi-
dent of the Lotus club. He belonged
to the Ohio, New England and st. An.
drew's societies and the American Geo
graphical society. He was an honorary
member Of the chamber of commerce.
an honor that has been rarely given.
As n newspaper editor Mr.. Reid made
a prediction several years ago of the
Journalism of the future. In part he
said:
This, then, I conceive to be the next
great revolution in journalism. We
shall not have cheaper newspapers.
They are the cheapest things sold now
considering the cost of making them.
We shall not have continually growing
supplement- upon supplement- of adver-
tisements. Individual wants will seek
mediums more suitable. Only general
wants will need the wider publicity Of
great journals, and these will be kept
by increasing cost within manageable
compass.
we shall not have more news. The
world is ransacked Cor it now. Earth.
sea and air carry news for us now
from every capital, from every people.
from every continent, from every is
land. We shall not have bigger news-
papers. They are bigger now than a
busy people can read. We shall have
better newspapers-the story better
told, better brains employed in the tell.
Ing, briefer papers, papers dealing with
the more important Of current matters
In such style and with such fascina-
ton that they will command the wild
est interest"
OF Horace Greeley Mr.. Reid wrote:
Most true it is that the foremost
editorial writer of our times has had
and is to have no successor. Horace
Greeley stood alone-without n peer
and without a riyal-not perhaps the
ideal editor. but, fairly judged. the
ablest master of controversial English
and the most successful popular edu-
Gator the journalism of the English
speaking world has yet developed"

Three years IN Paris Post.

For his generous support Of the Re-
publican party Mr.. Reid was asked BIZ
Hayes and Garfield t o take the dipIo-
matte post in Berlin. He refused n
both cases and devoted himself to his
affairs in New York. But In 1899.
when President Harrison took Office.
Mr.. Reid accepted the ambassadorship
70 France. Here he took a palace be-
longing to the Due de GrammOnt, in
the Avenue Hoche, the rental Of which
vas far beyond the salary this coun-
try allows its foreign representatives.
He returned to America to become
the nominee Of his party for the vice
presidency with Harrison in 1892.
After the defeat OF the ticket be was
out of public Office until the return of
his party to power under Mckinley.
Then he was sent to Queen victoria's
Jubilee and King Edwards coronation
and was also member of the com
mission that negotiated the peace with
Spain.
1t was generally expected that Mr..

an end with the accession Of President
Taft in 1909. Mr.. Taft had decided on
President Emeritus Charles w. Eliot
of Harvard for the post and went so
far as to offer the post to Mr.. Eliot at
a conference in the White House. Mr..
Eliot had just given up his place as
the head of Harvard university.
With this turn in affairs Mr.. Reid
retained the Office. Mr.. Reid had been
before English people principally by
his occasional addresses. His Two
Speeches at the Queens Jubilee" pub
Iished In 1897, were widely circulated
and were followed in 1899 by Some
Consequences of the Last Treaty of
Paris being a study of the results OF
fhe Spanish-American war. The same
year he published "Our New Duties"
an address on Americas foreign rela-
tons, and in 1900 "Our New Inter-
ests' and Problems of Expansion"
He wrote the introduction for the cen
tenary edition of Thackeray's vanity
Fair in zoos and was one of the
speakers at the English celebration of
the centenary Of Dickens birth. In
EnglisS history his best known study
was his address on Edmund Burke.

RENEW FIGHT ON SENATORS
Chiffon and Watson of West Virginia
Again Attacked.

A demand for an investigation of the
election of Senators William f. Chiffon
and Clarence w. Watson of West Vir-
ginia was made in a petition presented
to the senate before adjournment The
petition called attention to charges
Of bribery publicly made in reference
to the election of the two West Vir-
ginia senators.
The document was referred to the
committee on privileges and elections.
Senators Bailey, Bacon and Martin,
all Democrats, declared the petition
had been made for political purposes.
Senator La Toilette defended the
petition as furnishing more basis for
investigation than did the original
charges against William Lorimer.
The petition was signed by Cover
nor William E. Glasscock, William
Seymour Edwards, Herschel C. Ogden,
David B. Smith and Frederick A. Nc
Donald and made formal demand for
an investigation.
The charges are similar to the ones
made to the West Virginia legislature
a year ago.

TAFT DEFENDS
Recent vETOES
Militant Speech al Columbus
Centennial Celebration
REFORMS SHOULD Be SLOW
Mentally Deranged Woman With Two
Knives Attemps to Interview Presi-
dent; Detectives Nab Her in Time.

President Taft was the guest at the
Ohio-Columbus centennial celebration
at Columbus, o.
In one of his addresses the presi-
dent took occasion to warmly defend
his recent vetoes and to uphold the
veto principle. Referring to his own
use of the veto the president said:
81 think have used it moderately.
though some of my friends do not
agree. They have said that if | were
a king and should do what have done
my head would drop in basket. But
| am not a king. | am a president
elected by the people and representing
greater proportion OF the people than
any legislator.
"The president, therefore, is re-
sponsible to greater extent for legis-
lation which is passed than any other
single person.
"One trouble with some legislation
is that some reformers want every
reform put into effect tomorrow morn
ing before breakfast. 1t is well to
make progress slowly, but to be sure
we are making it. Change is not
progress.
"A good executive must practice in
dividual self-restraint, weigh what he
is told and to do what he believes is
true. God is on the side of popular
government and it is making progress
slowly but surely"
Caroline Beers, aged forty, of Green
vile, o., was arrested in the Southern
hotel while awaiting the coming OF
President Taft. The woman, who is
said to be mentally deranged, is al
legged to have declared she intended to
punish the president. Il have the
sacred knife for President Taft" she
said.
When searched two knives were
found on her, one a long keen-edged
weapon.

Washington is aroused over the
charge that some of its wealthiest
and most prominent residents have
been undertaking. their fine houses
in the northwest section of the city
in order to dodge their fair share of
taxes. Among those accused is Perry
Belmont, former New Yorker, whose
fine house, built on a triangular plot,
is always pointed out to sightseers.

BODY OF COAL MAN IN LAKE
Supposed to Be James DonnelIy of
Bradford, Pa,

Mystery attaches to the finding in
Lake Michigan, near Chicago, of
what is thought to be the body of
James Donnelly, a wealthy coal
operator of Bradford, Pa.
The body was clad in expensive
clothing and in the pockets of his
coat were found over $4,000 wrapped
with a paper of the First National
bank of Bradford. There also was
a bank book issued by that bank in
which a notation of the withdrawal of
larger sum was made.
There were no apparent marks of
violence, but the suicide theory is con-
sidered to be the least likely true of
all because of lack of motive.
