says 7. R. win Run as Republican.

Colonel Roosevelt will be a candl-
date for the Republican nomination for
president in 1916, with an excellent
chance of being successful.
This is the opinion expressed by
United States Senator George Suther-
land, who is in Salt Lake City from
Washington during the lull between
the passage of the tariff bill and the
debate on the currency bill.
It comes with peculiar force from
Senator Sutherland because Of the fact
that the senator is one OF the leaders
of the conservative Republican forces
in the senate. Senator Sutherland was
opposed to the nomination Of Roose-
welt at the Chicago convention and
vigorously opposed his election last
fall. Senator Sutherland did not go
as far as to say that he would support
Rooseyelt's nomination, but he did say
that he believed Roosevelt would be
nominated.

TAFT weighs only 240 Pounds.

William H. Taft who is in Brook
line, Mass has lost eighty pounds in
weight since laying down the cares
which go with the Office of President.
There is nothing alarming in this,
however, for it was brought about by
deliberate design and Mr. Taft stills
tips the scale at 240 pounds. He has
dropped the weight cultivating a big
appetite through outdoor exercise and
then refraining from gratifying the ap-
petite. He also spends much time on
the golf links.

crazed ..aaro sIaIn By EmpIoyer.

GIdLeu s379To Sidiu py employer
In terrific hand-to- hand combat
with a crazed and infuriated negro
armed with an axe, which occurred
in the garage of his residence, at
2227 Eutaw Place, Baltimore, Md,
Charles G. Guth. former president OF
the Guth Chocolate Company, shot and
mortally wounded his assailant.
The negro, George Murphy, who had
been Mr. Guth's chauffeur. died in
the ambulance while Delng conveyed
to st. Luke's Hospital.
Mr.. Guth was arrested and is being
held pending an investigation by the
police.
For several days. according to Mr.
Guth, Murphy had been acting strang
ly. He was moody and insolent and
had given little attention to his du-
ties. When Mr.. Guth went to the gar.
agxe to be driven in his car to his Of
fee, Murphy was still in a sullen and
resentful mood. He responded inso
lently to his employers orders and
Mr.. Guth rebuked his sharply.
The rebuke seemed to inspire Muir
ply with murderous frenzy. He
picked up an axe that lay near at hand
and made a mad rush for his employ
er. Mr. Guth managed to evade the
attack and went back into the house
and procured a revolver.
While inside his residence he tele.
phoned the facts tn the northern po.
lice station and then went back to

He had just entered the garage when
Murphy repeated his attack with the
axe Mr.. Guth grappled with the
chauffeur, at the same time menacing
his assailant with his revolver.
To and fro across the floor of the
garage the men fought, Mr.. Guth
seeking to subdue Murphy without In

Pay Last Tribute to Mayor Gaynor
New York paid its last tribute to
the late Mayor William ]. Gaynor
The funeral ceremonies, which came
to a close with interment in Green
wood cemetery. have ben the most i'm
pressive ever accorded any man in
New York city.
Thousands Of men and women, most
of them showing traces Of sincere
grief, lined Broadway and adjacent
streets between the city hall and
Trinity church, where the main ser
vices were conducted. An overflow SER
vice was held in St. Paul's church.
Details of mounted policemen pre-
ceded and followed the catafalque as
it moved slowly down Broadway. At
the head Of each of the sixteen horses
drawing the hearse marched police
man or a fireman. There were eight
members of the police department and
an equal number from the fire depart
ment.
AS the casket passed between the
two walls of spectators every man
barred his head.
The twelve honorary pall-bearers,
headed by Mr. Taft, marched six on
each side of the casket. Behind them
came official committees of the city,
two companies of the city hall police
and the long train of organizations and
individuals chosen from the many who
applied for places in the funeral train.
More than $4,000 had wanted to be in
line, but in accord with Mrs. Gaynor's
wishes for as simple services as pos
sible, less than half the number were
permitted to participate.
Admission to the church was by card
only. The clergymen selected to Off
ciate were Rev. William T. Manning,
rector of Trinity; Bishop David II.
Greer and Bishop C. S Burch.

Jackie Clark had a lot of fun at the
veiodrome last night amusing him
self. kidding the small crowd that
was on hand for the final night meet
of rhe season and incidentally taking
first money in both of the professional
open races. Jackie was in great form
and he rode with a confidence that
was astonishing. In the zimmerman
stakes he won after he appeared TO
be out of the race, and in the two
mile handicap he raced away from
Aft Grenda and Reggie Mcnamara
as though they were second-string
men. Frank Kramer, the American
champion, and Bill Bailey, the Eng
fish amateur title holder, viewed the
races from the grandstand.
In the Zimmerman stakes, %nlch
was started by Arthur Zimmerman,
nj Point Pleasant, the first winner of
the worlds sprint title, in 1898, and
one of the greatest riders the world
has ever seen, and in whose honor
the race was named, Clark appeared
to be hopelessly out of the race at the
fhree-auarter-mile mark. The tan
dem tee.m that was pacing Clark in
The final raced away from him and
left him in last position, riding alone
yards behind Grenda and ALI Goullet,
who were leading. AT the eighth
pole on the fifth lap Jackie pulled up
on the leaders and caught them on
the backstretch only to be shaken
again when Grenda jumped away
from Goullet and picked up a big
lead at the start of the final lap.
Grenda had many yards on Clark
as they started the final circuit, but
Jackie. apparently all in, pulled up
ard nv
YARD. and in a magnificent sprint
down the homestreteh closed on his
countryman and won by a scant three
inches. Clark said afterwards that
he felt that he had the race well in
hand at all times and purposely took
1t easy until the stretch was reached.
Clark. Grenda and Goullet were the
winners of the three semi-finals, in
each of which there were two Aus
tralian riders and one American. In
the first semi-final Clark, the winner
rode practically the same as he did
in the final. He lost his pace in the
third lap and had to tack on to Nc
Namara. He trailed Reggie into the
final stretch and then beat him In the
dash to the tape.
All of the semi-finals afforded great
competition. Grenda, last off in the
iensths behind at a lap and half
from the finish, raced around Frank
Cavanagh and Paddy Hehir as though
they were tied, winning by many
yards.
Gouilets head work in the third
semi was alone accountable for his
appearance in the final. Goullie was
sadly off form and had difficulty in
holding his pace. Grassy Ryan ana
Bob Spears, who opposed Goullet, had
a battle of their own, and Goullet
took advantage of the little affair
that was taking place behind him.
Ryan, whose tandem team went out
of commission early in the race. tried
TO get the position behind Goullet
which was held by Spears, the latter
being left without pace also. Ryan
tried to knock Spears off of Goulets
wheel and Spears took his right hand
off the hars and pushed Grassy up
2he bank. Ryan came back at him
and they elbowed and mauled each
