CORTELYOU LOOKED UPON FAVORABLY

Taft and Roosevelt Forces Want Him for Vice President. HUGHES STANDS IN WAY. NOT UNTIL IT IS SETTLED THAT THE NEW YORK GOVERNOR IS OUT OF THE RACE WILL CORTELYOU BE PUT FORWARD. Washington, Juno 10. Indications are multiplying that Secretary Cortelyou will be advanced by the Roosevelt an.4 Taft forces at Chicago as their candidate for vice president. Secretary Corbelyou himself naturally declined to discuss the matter of his candidacy for the very sufficient reason, that his native state already lias In the field a possible candidate for the presidency in the person of Gov. Hughes. That fact has so far operated to prevent any open exchangees between the friends of Secretary Cortelyou and Secretary Taf f s managers. But it can now be stated as a fact that in the opinion of bis friends the time has come 'when Secretary Cortelyou should be placed in a position to be recognized as New York's candidate for the vice presidency in the event of the elimination of Hughes from the presidential race. As a necessary step to a successful .campaign in that direction there had first to be ascertained the attitude that President Roosevelt and Secretary Taft would assume towards Secretary Cortelyou's candidacy. The Secretary himself has declined to make any move in the matter, but his friends have not felt restrained by that fact, and already they feel that they have received such encouragement that they are now preparing to move in force upon the convention delegates at Chicago. One reason for their confidence is asserted to be their belief that by the strenuous opposition to the recognition of Southern Taft delegates in the battle before the national committee now in progress, the coupling of the names of Taft and Fairbanks on one ticket has become impossible. Today Secretary Cortelyou's advance guard started for Chicago, led by Assistant Secretary Louis Collidge, a Bostonian of long experience in public affairs and of wido acquaintance with the various boom managers now In Chicago, Cornelius N. Bliss, one time member of McKinley's cabinet and treasurer of the last republican campaign committee, is also said to be bound for Chicago in Secretary Cortelyou's interest, while among other political leaders expected to espouse his cause is said to be Senator Murray Crane of Massachusetts, whose support is most anxiously desired by the administration forces.

FEAR FOR ELECTION

Thought That There Will Be Bloodshed in Panama, July 11th. MINISTER SQUIRES RETURNS Washington, June 10 After an extended conference between Secretary Root and Minister Squires, It was announced that Mr. Squires would return to his post at Panama. It is understood that Mr. Squires furnished much information in detail regarding the political situation on the isthmus. Mr. Squires was given advice as to the necessity of the American Legation preserving absolute neutrality as between the respective candidates for the Presidency of the republic.

There was a coach that used to run between Nola Chucky and Paint Rock, a matter of some forty miles. For lunch the coach stopped at a halfway house In Tin Can, and here a good fifty cent meal was put out cake and pie, coffee and tea and all the cold meats you could mention. But the landlord of the halfway house had a mean little secret dicker with-the driver, whereby as soon as the travelers had paid for their luncb and got fairly settled to it a call would come for an immediate start. So off they'd all go, grumbling. They'd have paid for 50 cents' worth of food and only eaten, you see, about 5 cents' worth. But along came one day a traveler with a sharp, bright eye. The landlord found this chop some ten minutes after the coach had started on again still tucking in pie and bam at a terrible rate. "Why, man," he said, "you've let the coach go without you." "I know it." said the trayeler calmly. "I was too blessed hungry to stop eatiug." Suddenly the landlord's face paled. "Good gracious," he said, "all my silver's gone!" It was too. Not a knife, fork or spoon was left except the sharp eyed man's. He said as he kept on eating that he had noticed a suspicious looking character among the passengers, a man with a red beard, a hump and a limpon. very suspicious! The landlord sent a hostler off to overtake the coach and bring it back. In about forty minutes the coach returned. Then the sharp eyed man came forth, wiping bis mouth. But he made no effort to identify the suspicious looking pnssenger. Instead he got aboard the coach, took his seat and said coolly. "Thanks, landlord, for the good food. You'll find the spoons and things in the coffeepot. Now, driver, off we go ag'in." Washington Star. "Once in :i siit.iil town Eddy Foy and I went into a barber's to get shaved," said an actor. "When the barber got through with him Foy applied bis handkerchief to his face and said: 'Young man, you have missed your vocation. You ought to be an oyster opener.' "

TREASURE FOUHD INFOLD SAFE Unexpected Find of Hagerstown, Md. Man. Hagerstown. Md., June 10. An old iron safe, ready for the scrap heap, which was purchased by William McLaughlin at an auction sale in this city yielded the purchaser an unexpected small fortune.

McLaughlin counted out nearly ,"" silver pieces, besides a number of gold dollars and silver quarters and half dollars. The coins are all of old mintage and more or less tarnished. IT IS CREATING A WONDERFUL STIR HERE. People all over the town are talking about the wonderful gool Root Juice is doing in this community, as it has made many remarkable cures during the past few months. A well known lady who for social reasons does not want her nam published, said: "I had been in poor health for several years. The doctors gave me medicine for catarrh of the stomach, gastric ulcers, indigestion, dyspepsia, and stomach troubles generally, but I derived no benefit. My appetite was variable sometimes hungry' as a wolf, then sickening at the mere thought of food. I was subject to dizzy spells and sick headache. I was thin, weak, despondent and nervous, and had to take some kind of medicine all the time on account of my badly constipated condition. A lady friend told me that she had suffered very much as I did, but that Root Juice had completely cured her, so I concluded to try it, and before I had used the first bottle, I was rapidly improving in every way. I continued taking the truly great medicine ahout six weeks, and if there is anything the matter with me now I don't know it I now enjoy my food and digest it. I sleep well. I am no longer constipated, weak or nervous ,and have plenty of flesh and strength. " Such good reports of the great medicine are being heard all over town. It is Kold for one dollar a bottle or three bottles for two dollars and a half. Those who are interested can learn of many of the wonderful things it. is doing by going to A. G. Lukcn & Co.'s drug store. Who Are tha Zulus? Who are the Zulus? Xo one knows for certain, as they have no written books, and ten or twelve generations is the limit of any oral tradition that is worthy of notice. Probably they are Semitic or serai-Semitic in their origin, since they retain sundry of the customs of the Jews and kindred peoples. Thus they celebrate a feast of the first fruits and have somewhat similar regulations tfs to clean and unclean food, .etc. We may hazard a guess, however, that for hundreds of thousands of years they and other tribes of the Bantu people have been engaged in forcing their way southward, killing as they came, till they reached their present habitation.

GOULDS ARE AGREED Will Ask the Law to Cut in Twain Bonds Binding Them Together. SEPARATED SOME TIME. New York. June lo. Mrs. Frank J. Gould arrived at the St. Regis Hotel three days ago, and, after a long conference with her attorneys and various friends, it was decided that tho final action for a separation between Gould and herself could be. announced. "Mr. Gould, we understand, is not anxious to talk, nor is Mrs. Gould anxj ions to discuss her affairs in the pub lic, prints," came the word from a friend of Mrs. Gould at the St. Re? is last night. ' If it is any satisfaction to the public, it can be published without fear of contradiction that. Mr. and Mrs. Gould have agreed on a legal separation. We beg that no scandal be made of this affair. None exists beyond the fact that Mr. and Mrs. Gould are not living together and will not. The suit for separation will be pressed by Mrs. Gould, and that is all that can be said on the subject." Where Mrs. Gould will go' to receive her decree of divorce is a question that is causing much speculation in society circles. Under the laws of Xew York she can secure an absolute divorce only on one grotind. She refuses to make an application on statutory grounds, and probably will have to bring the suit in one of the Western States.
