HUGHES WINS GREAT
DENVER AUDIENCE
Arouses 0utburst Of Applause
When He Names Roosevelt.
Demands Firm Americanism
BY PERRY ARNOLD.

DENVER. Col. Aug. T.-Governor
Hughes last night mentioned Colonel
Roosevelt's name for the first time since
he began campaigning three weeks ago.
and before an audience Of 1900 people
massed in the AUDITORIUM that cheersd
the mention to an echo.
Hughes was criticising the Adminis-
tration's preparedness policy. He re-
ferred to the fact that the Democrats
first held agitation for preparedness a.
the result OF "excitability." and then
went on to declare that the Administra-
tion reversed its decision when q
stalwart figure" spoke the new gospel.
Tho big audience which already was
Republican candidate. caught the COM
pliment In Hughes remarks at once.
They began applauding even before
Hughes. continuing. mentioned how
"Mr. Roosevelt" awoke the nation.
Applaud Mexico Sallies.
The vast audience received Hughes
assaults on the Democratic Mexican
policy with great applause.

Wsshingtonians Can't Leave
City at the Right Time.

That's the way of this official life in
Washington. A hostess told me the
other day that she hadn't been per-
nitted to leave town during the hot
weather. and now It was SO late that
she couldn't leave because the children
must start in school in a few days. The
Congressional families with children
are always in that particular peck Of
trouble.
II they don't 60 back home, the con-
stityents suspect that they are getting

which Is equivalent to an invitation to
defeat. II they do 60 home. they must
turn right around apd hurry back to
Washington.
Washington insists on being dif-
ferent! Every other town in the north
temperate zone has Its summer crowd
rushing back, Just when Washington Of
ficial exodus Is beginning. BY rights
this town would be deserted in July and
August. Instead. people have had to
stick here and attend to the public's
business until the bad weather Is past,
and now they are breaking for the tall
timbers and hustings. The Congress
sional and official crowds will have q
hard time this year; out OF the legis-
lative frying pan into the campaigning
fire. They're a fagged-out lot, too.

Service School Officers
Are in q Quandary.


Are the various army services schools
to De opened this year? There is a per-
sistent rumor that they will not and the
question Is causing no end nf agitation
to the officers-and their wives--who
have been detailed to duty at the War
College. the Mounted Service School at
Fort Riley; the Engineer School. and
the Stan College at Fort Leavenwortn.
definite plans until they know.
For instance there Is Cant. Richard
c. Burleson. Of the Field Artillery. who
IL now on the border. He has been
ordered to the Mounted Service School
at Riley. Mrs. Burleson Is still at Fort
Myer and doesn't know whether to
make plans to go to Riley or whether
the captain will be detained on the bor-
der and she'll have to Join him there.
And doubtless the powers that be will
soon be wanting her quarters at Myer
for the use Of Captain Burleson's sue
cessor.
Mrs. Manus McCloskey Is another
army woman whose plans are unsettled.
Major McCloskey. who Is also on the
border, has been ordered to the War
College: and Mrs. McCloskey can't find
out whether he's coming North to join
her or whether she'll have to 60 South
to join him.
I suppose Ruth Bliss, Mrs. Lewis
Hayes Watkins, who is at Fort Leaven-
worth. is in exactly the same predica-
ment, for Captain Watkins has been de-
tailed to the Stan College at Leaven-
worth. He Is now at Brownsville. and
at present uncertain whether he IL to go

the past winter. 1t stated that tho
shortage was probably due TO the in
creased consumption because Of the
unusual activities of most of the III

weather.
Many Will Use coal.
II was brought out at the. meeting
that many manufacturers Of the
Wheeling district are making arrange
mcnts 10 use coal in the event OF Il
shortage Of gas the coming winter.
Several plants are being fitted up Tor
the use of either coal or gas. ,ias
will be preferred, but if the supply
is not great enough 10 remain In oper-
alton, coal will be used rather than
close down the plants. The idea is 10
be prepared in case of gas shortage
and so be fortified To some extent
against the necessity of closing.
