Miss Heider Is SO small aud frail

ROOSEVELT TAKES A HAND.
Colonel Believed to 30 Directing john
son in Ant-AIien Tanele.

Washington April 25.--"The voice is
Jacobs voice. but the hand is the hand
of Esau." assevt rate the administration
men as they analyze the cordially nom
committal kilograms received by Presl-
dent Wilson from the governor ana
two houses of the legislature OF Call
fornia regarding the visit or Secretary
Bryan to Sacramento. That Is TO say,
they believe Colonel Theodore Roose-
welt is directing the governor OF Can
fornia and the progresEiv. majority IN
the legislature in their negotiations
with the federal administration in the
proposed land legislation.
Colonel Roosevelt has taken hand
in the matter. The country therefore
is to see q battle of wits between the
two distinguished leaders of the demo-
cratic and progressive parties. Each Is
directing his side of the peculiar con-
test from his proper place on the At
lantic coast and IL action is deferred
until Bryan reaches the capital of Cali
fornia, each will be working thru his
ablest lieutenant.
While president. Colonel Roosevelt
came to understand the Japanese prob
lem in the Pacific coast intermountain
states He is familiar with every aspect
OF IT, Moreover. he is thoroughly In
formed as to the attitude of the Japa-
nese government the temper of the
japanese people. and the limitations of
the treaty between the Japanese gov
eminent and the United States. 1t is
doubtless correct that he has informed
Governor Johnson how far he can go
in anti-alien land legislation without
giving the Japanese grounds for pro-
test AT the same time he has scored
In political sence by forcing the dem
ocrats to assume an attitude, or appar-
emily assume it, which is repugnant to
the generally accepted doctrine III
states rights. He has also compelled
the democrats in the California legis-
lature to join the lin bad club as far
as the people Of their state are con-
cerned. and this has made noise that
has reverberated clear across the con-
tinent and echoed in the White House.
The colonel appears to be having one
of his usual best, times Of his life. But
the affair is not yet completed. and 1t
remains to the immediate future to re-
veal the victor in the duel of wits.

Manson. April 26.-The owners o.

real fright recently, when it became
known that there was dark cloud on

This important discovery was made
by Y. p. McManus, Il local attorney
| in examining an abstract for the pur-
chaser Of the David p. Smith property
on Murray Hill. Mr.. McManus declared
the title to be defective and he was
sustained in his contention by some OF
the leading attorneys OF this part of
the state.
The news came as a thunderbolt To
every realty holder In the disputes: ter

section one mile square, the entire
business section of the town. the iars-
est residence section of the town. the
Rose Hill and ST. Thomas cemeteries

churches and both railway stations
and yards.
The discrepancy in the titles to tne
land was the result of the juggling OF

date in the history of the town.

living in Princeton, \. j., on the same
street in which is the home OF the late
ex-President Cleveland. She is an aseo
woman ard has only two heirs. TWO

plained his mission. He was not given
anv assurance that their heirs would
sign a uuit-claim deed until they had
visited one Of the most tinicky tue
lawyers in Manhattan. They We're all
unbending with Mr.. F'itz. but by care
full and tactful persuation he induced
