GREAT WELCOME FOR ROOSEVELT BY THE BRITISH . . . After Being Shown the Sights Of World's Greatest Fortress He Sails Away for Naples, Italy. ENGLISH GOVERNOR

ENTERTAINS COLONEL Many Dinner Entertainments Were Planned for Him But He Was Obliged to Decline All of Them. Gibraltar, April 3. Theodore Roosevelt came ashore here yesterday for a brief visit during the short time the steamer Hamburg touched at this port. ' The ex-president declined all official honors tendered and sailed for Naples after private entertainment by the British commander, Gen. F6res tier-Walker; the American consuls of Gibraltar and Malaga, Spain and a representative of Admiral Goodrich of the British navy. Richard L. Sprague, the American consul, and an aide de camp of Gen Sir Frederick Forestier-Walker, gov ernor of Gibraltar, went out to the Hamburg to welcome the former pres ident of the United States. After an exchange of greetings Mr. Roosevelt, wearing a frock coat and a silk hat, came down over the side and stepped into a launch sent out by the captain of the port and was brought ashore. The party, proceeded at once to the residence , of Mr. Sprague. At half past ten o'clock Mr. Roosevelt called upon Gen. Forestier-Walker. When asked concerning the rumor that an attack had been made upon him during the voyage. Mr. Roosevelt said that the only basis for it was that an ."idiotic, excitable Italian used angry expressions to him while he was on the bridge of the vessel talking to the captain. , He said, this man made no attempt upon him whatever and that he was promptly removed and confined below the remainder of the voyage. Declines Invitation by Wireless. The general had invited Mr. Roosevelt to , luncheon, as had also Mr. Sprague, but Mr. Roosevelt was not able to accept either of these invita'ons on account of the short stay x. i-e of the Hamburg. The invitations for luncheon at Gibraltar were sent out to the Hamburg by wireless telegraphy and Mr. Roosevelt's replies were communicated by the same means. Mr. Roosevelt refused to be photographed and he declined every request for an interview. The weather is bright and warm and Mr. Roosevelt appeared to be in the best of health and spirits. Upon leaving- the Hamburg he shook hands with a number of the passengers, who cheered him enthusiastically. At the residence of Mr. Sprague Mr. Roosevelt was greeted by a gathering of the Americans in Gibraltar. Enjoys Visit With Governor. At the residence of Gen. ForestierWalker cordial greetings were exchanged between the governor of Gibraltar and the former president Mr. Roosevelt was shown through government house and the gardens by the governor himself. He expressed his delight with the residence, and added that he was enchanted by his visit to Gibraltar. Subsequently, accompanied by the governor, an aid and Mr. Sprague, Mr. Roosevelt drove in the governor's carriage out along the north front and up to the limit of British territory. The party then returned to town and the governor bade Mr. Roosevelt farewell, wishing him godspeed, health and prosperity. - , Mr. Roosevelt has enjoyed himself greatly on board ship and become popular with the passengers. Thursday the captain's farewell dinner to Mr. Roosevelt was given on board the Hamburg. THOR C n. P. Twin Cylinder Eight ClMerent Motels SIM ui Call tor eataloejae . ana aaoastratl G.

AUGRY AT SENATOR

Minister States He Would Like To Eat Legislator Kane. BECAUSE BASEBALL VOTE Xoblesville, Ind., April 3. In an address delivered at the Friends' church, the Rev. Willis Bond, pastor of the Friends church at Carmel, made a vigorous attack on State Senator Ralph K. Kane, of this city, for being instrumental in the passage of the Sunday baseball law. "There are 1,000 Quakers in Hamilton county, and he did not represent one of them when he voted for the Sunday baseball law," said the Rev. Mr. Bond. "How I long for the oppor tunity to pin brother Kane's ears to his head, swallow him and still be hungry for something good! "If he is ever a candidate for an of nee again I shall take the stump against him and I have no fear about the result. I have treated many good men that way and I shall certainly be glad of the opportunity to give my friend Kane a dose of the same medi cine." Senator Kane, when the address was mentioned to him, passed it off as a joke and refused to be interviewed SISTER STEPS III WEDS THE GROOM Romantic Elopement Startles Good People of Owensville, Ind. TURNS DOWN HIS OLD LOVE BECAUSE HER SISTER JUST NATURALLY WAS SO CAPTIVATING, HE ABSOLUTELY 'COULDN'T RE SIST HER. Owensville, Ind., April 3. The ro mantic elopement of John Griggsbr and Miss Nora McDonald to Denver, Col., after the groom had promised to marry his bride's sister, Miss Nellie McDonald, following a long period of courtship, has created a big sensation in the famous ir Mon district, west of Owensville, where the scenes in this extraordinary romance were staged. The announcement of the approach lng marriage of John Griggsby to Miss Nellie McDonald was still a topic of conversation in the social circles of the melon district when Miss Nora McDonald, a sister of the bride-to-be stepped In and captured Griggsby'a heart and at the same time persuaded him to elope with her to Denver, Col The intended bride-to-be is at her home, west of this place, under the care of a physician, ill from grief and humiliation. Pressed His Claim. Griggsby pressed his claim for Miss Nellie McDonald's hand many months before slie finally consented to marry and when the announcement of the be trothal was made the young couple proceeded to furnish a home. Most of the household furnishings were bought before the sister of the bride-to be began to shower her smiles on the intended brother-in-law. Miss Nellie Griggsby, the bride-to-be knew nothing of the plans of her sis ter until several days after the elopers had departed. After telling her par ents, Mr. and Mrs: William McDonald. that she was going to visit a relative in Illinois, Miss Nora slipped quietly out of the house and drove to Posey ville, where she met young Griggsby with several hundred pounds of baggage labeled "To Denver, Col." They boarded the first train that came along and after reaching their destination a pretty postcard was sent to Miss Nellie McDonald by her sister, informing the folks of her marriage to John Griggsby.

DEFEAT STARING

TARIFF MEASURE RIGHT III FACE Dissatisfied Members of Con gress, Both Democrats and Republicans, Are Making Dark Threats. DEMAND THE CHANGES THEY WANT IN BILL Political Lines Crumble Before The Demand for "Protec tion" Against All Foreign Competition. Washington, April 3. How to cir cumvent the Ways and Means commit tee is a problem to. which fully two score republican members of the house are devoting themselves with frantic energy. Conferences are being held to frame up combinations to defeat some of the schedules in the Payne bill, and also to prevent the adoption of important amendments, which the committee ex pects to report next week after the close of the general debate. The coal and lumber iuterests, whose objections to the bill have been ex plained before, are extremely active. Threats are being made by republican representatives who are dissatisfied with these schedules to form an alii ance with democrats to defeat the bill entirely unless concessions are made to them. But it happens that party lines will be disregarded when it comes to voting, for among the democrats there are as ardent protectionists as among the republicans. No Plan of Action. In this connection it is worthy of remark that the democrats are pursuing anything but a concerted plan of action, and apparently are missing a fine opportunity to make political capital for use in the next congressional elections. The democrats are just like the re-j publicans when forced into a position of mixing business with politics, for then politics becomes merely incidental i to the more important question of conserving the business interests of the country, or of particular localities. , Desperate Oppoaition. Coal and lumber are mentioned in the foregoing merely as illustrative of the desperate character of the opposition on the part of members of both parties to schedules which are objectionable to certain constitupencies. Political lines crumble before the demand for "protection" against foreign competition, and the representatives of a great variety of interests are on the ground to facilitate this disintegrating proceess. Interests large and small are represented in large numbers, and there is feverish activity to Induce the Ways and Means committee to modify many of the Payne schedules. Failing to secure what they want, these business agents will appeal to the senators to give them what they think is their right under the "policy of protection" to American Industries. Senator Aldrich, the chairman' of this committee on finance of the upper house, went to New York yesterday partly to escape the numerous importunities which are coming from business men who are dissatisfied with the Payne schedules. Reach Agreement. Before he left the city,, however, the senator had a talk with the president, and the two men came to an agreement in regard to a material change in the maximum and minimum tariff action of the house bill. The provision at present is designed to work automat ically and confers upon the president that is, the executive branch of. the government, practically no discretion ary authority with respect to the en forcement of the maximum rates against foreign countries which practice tariff discrimination of any sort against the United States. The senate committee will modify this so as to give the administration snecific nower in the premises. This will be done by making the minimum rates applicable to all entries for a period of 10 or 12 months, and then the maximum rates will apply to all coun tries which have been unable to show that their tariff laws do not favor this country to the same extent as every other country. These demonstrations will have to be given by the diplomatic representatives of foreign nations who are stationed at Washington. Taft Approves It. The president is also in hearty sym pathy with that section of the Payne bill which provides for the fixing of the actual valuation of importations at the ports of entry In this country, instead of as shown in the 4 invoices prepared abroad. This, in his judgment, is one of the most Important features of the measure, for there have been gross and outrageous undervaluations on the part of European exporters and American importers. The debate in the house yesterday was strikingly indicative of the dissatisfaction with particular schedules of the Payne bilL It was also Illustrative of the fact that Democrats in many instances are as thorough protectionists as republicans when a tariff law is being framed, although they occupy different positions at other times. . The labor unions and unemployed of New Zealand are protesting against assisted immigration to the colony. Boa: Just spteadU biseidts Gold

CARE DEPEIIDEIIT

CHILDREN COSTS STATEJO MUCH In a Letter to the Wayne County Commissioners Secretary Butler Calls Attention to the Fact. HOMES FOR CHILDREN ARE GREATLY DESIRED Disposal of Young Girts Com ing Before Juvenile Court a Much Greater . Problem Than the Boys Are. In a letter to the county commissioners, Amos Butler, secretary of the board of state charities, calls attention to the care for orphan and dependent children. The secretary calls attention to the cost of these children to the state and declares it is too much. Wayne county abolished the orphans' home several years ago and since then has been accustomed to place the children which the court makes its wards, at White's Institute. A few children have found homes in private families, but the supply has been far greater than the demand. . ' t Has Several Wards. . At the present time, Judge Fox, of the juvenile court, has as wards, several young boys, whose home influence is such as to cause them to be guilty of petty depredations. These have brought them in conflict with the police, and arrests have followed or the probation officer has been called upon and she has brought the cases to the attention of the court. As a usual thing, the young girrls who come before tbe court present problems more difficult to dispose of than the boys offer. It is very seldom that a home is found for a girl. If she be very young, it sometimes happens she is adopted by another family, when her. mother or guardian surrenders her rights. a? But usually, a girl who has been" thrown upon the paths of waywardness has no chance offered her but the reform school. This condition is such as to cause the court worry and presents a problem to the county commissioners, also, that as yet remains without solution. See'y Butler's Letter. Similar conditions exist through the state, it may be judged from the let ter of Secretary Butler, which Is as follows: . . "There are entirely too many chil dren on public support in this state. It is contrary to their best Interests, If normal, to be kept in orphans' homes instead of being placed in good family homes, and it Is also a burden upon the public treasury. A few of the orphans' homes are active inthe work of placing their wards; the majority place few if any children, some of them de pending almost wholly upon the agents of this board. We should be glad to supply you information . from our records, regarding the particular association, which takes your depend ent children, if you desire it Must Have License. . "Under a law passed by the last leg islature, it will be illegal for any or phan's home to care for orphans or denendent children without a license from the board of state charities. You are doubtless aware that the depend ent' and neglected children law of 1907 prohibits a county from paying for the support of any child In an orphans home unless the court has committed that child as a public ward. Such in stitutions must also have the approval of the board of state charities before they can receive public wards. "Those and other laws along the same line have all been enacted for the good of the child, and the good of the child means, eventually, the good of the county and state. We want to work with you in this matter. We trust you will approve no bills for the maintenance of public wards unless the laws are fully complied with, both in reeard to their commitment by the court and their placement in family homes, if normal, by the associations which receive them for temporary care. We also ask your co-operation in the supervision which the law requires us to give all work for depend ent children." Brain Development. The growth of tbe skull and of the brain after tbe seventh or eighth year proceeds slowly, but a alight increase gees on until about the age of twenty or twenty-one. after which time the development practically ceases. It is a fact that the sutures in the negro skull "lock considerably earlier than they do in the Caucasian skull, thus arresting the brain development DEAD PERSONS' AGES AGGREGATED NEARLY 300 YEARS Af Brookville item says: " "One undertaker in this city has three funerals, the ages aggregating 28? years. They are ; Hiram Butler, aged ninety-nine, who died Saturday; Katherine Liming, aged ninety-three, who died Friday, and Asa Whitney, aged eighty-six. who died Sunday. All three of "these had lived in Franklin county nearly all their lives. 'There were two other deaths In the ' county ' in' 'the last few days of pioneers. They were George Fries, aged seventy, and Mrs. Glide well aged sixty-live." '
