PLEADS FOR FAIR PLAY
Declares They Must Stand or Fall on
Their Own Merits and to Abhor
Hypocrisy.

Declaring the boys will now be given
the one chance of their lives to stan
or fan on their own merits in the
great problems Of American life. Colo
mel Theodore Roosevelt addressed the
students Of the high school in Potts
town, Pa, on the campus north OF the
main building.
The colonel spoke from a platform
erected in the rear of the common
room. In the assemblage were up
wards OF 300 commencement visitors
and townsfolk Among the vititors
present were George w. Perkins and
Jacob Riis, of New York, both Of whom
have students at the Hill school.
The colOrel arrived in a special
coach on the Pennsylvania railroad.
The address. given under the direction
of the Civic club. was one of the series
dedicated to the memory of the late
DR.. John sMeigs. Previous speakers in
the course were former Governor Ed
win II. Stuart, Seth Low. OF New York,
and Champ Clark, speaker Of the ma
tional house OF representatives.
For this reason no invitation was ex-
tended to the general public of Potts
town. as it would have been impossi-
BILE to accommodate such a large as
semblage. However, nearly 2000 per
sons availed themselves of the oppor-
tunity of getting just a glance az the
colonel So dense was the crowd az
the railroad station that the chief o
police. Lyman Reifsnyder, had eig2t
special officers detailed to escort Mr..
Roosevelt from the car. He was me

Seated on the stand were Mr.. Per

colonel. used the words of Sena or
Beveridge that lit was a pleasure 10

the colonel stepped to the front, tie
applause lasting three minutes. The
colonel responded with a generous g in

broad brimmed soft hat
The speaker used as his theme
Training in Good Citizenship" and
emphasized forcibly the development
Of efficiency. Adding to the name OF
the school as you go ont into life will
be your best test of efficiency" he said.
Then tellirg Of the dual character OF
the obligation that rests on the BOYS,
the colonel said: The first essential
is efficiency, then decency and straight
forwardness. If there is one attitude to
abhor it is the attitude OF. hypocrisy.
There is a stoop in the intellectual
and moral shoulders of hundreds Of
men Of admirable purpose; such men
are those who have excellent purposes
and no power to achieve.
Fair play in public and buslnes,
life is what is demanded Of every
man. continued the colonel. in nv

REFUSE TOIMPEACH BRUMM
After Long Debate Legislators Adopt
Majority Report.

Majority Report.
The Pennsylvania house in Harris
burg unanimously rejected the p:o
posed Impeachment of Judge Charles
N. Brumm, of Schuylkill county
Judge Brumm's "yindication" came
after a discussion lasting three hOlrs
on the motion of Representative Mau
rice Speiser, of Philadelphia, to sub
stitute the minority report of the spa-
cial committee which investigated the
charges against the Schuylkill county
jurist for the majority report, which
was favorable to the judge.
It was not necessary to call the roll,
the volume of noes" being such as to
settle the question quickly. After the
substitute was knocked out, the house,
shouting as one man, adopted the ma
jority report, following which there
was much clapping of hands and other
evidences of satisfaction.
Judge Brumm's impeachment was al
no time, judging from the appearances,
seriously considered by the house and
the discussion throughout was Of

There are in this section of the
country, a limited number of excep'
tionally desirable tracts of land suit.
able for general farming or for fruit

are considerably below actual value
and will soon advance rapidly as land
spectators are beginning to pour into
the country.
To protect Catholic land seekers
and to furnish them with reliable in.
formation and assistance, Rt. Rev
Joseph F. Busch, Bishop of Lead, has
formed the Country Home Associa

and complain that the pagan Chinese
owners put difficulties in their way,
even when they are prepared to pay
their passage in the few launches that
ply in those waters. And when they
do succeed in getting passage they
call only at the principal villages. But
the few hours of the stop-over is alto
