ALSO CALL HIM COWARD DUSTIN WOULD TAKE A POKE AT ' THE MILLIONAIRE BUT HE IS AFRAID TO ANNIHILATE HIM DENIES CHARGES. Chicago, 111., April 22. "Some one Should smash Howard Gould in the face. If It were not for the fact that I might annihilate him, I would do it myself." ., ;" ., ', This was the. principal part of Dustin Farnum's answer to charges made by Mr. Gould that the actor was too friendly with Mrs. Gould. Mr. Farnum -gave his deposition today in the law offices of Louis. E. Ehle in defense of Mrs. Gould, who was Kattaerlne Oemmons, the actress. She is being cued for divorce. The actor, who is playing the leading part in "Cameo Kirby,", is said to be one of the most athletic men on the Stage. Were Never Alone. "Any man who makes such charges against a woman as are made by this Gould person is a despicable coward," said Farnum. "I met Mrs. Gouid about eight years ago in New York. Bhe and other prominent women asked me to take part in a charity affair. I played a short sketch with Miss May Robson. After that I met Mrs. Gould accidentally at different times. I never was alone with her in my life. "That automobile trip mentioned by Gould was as harmless as anything in the world. There were four women, besides myself and the chauffeur, . in the party. I accepted the Invitation ftecause I love automobillng. Went to Atlantic City. "We went from Philadelphia to Atlantic City and I enjoyed the trip. At Atlantic City Mrs. Gould was taken ill and was confined to her room. But this illness was not the result of 'booze. We did not have a single drink of intoxicating liquor on that trip." Mr. Farnum said his deposition was a denial of every charge. ; The actor declared that if there was any way to secure redress from Mr. Gould he certainly would put the matter in the bands of his attorney. . "I don't think I can get back at him, though," said Mr. Farnum. "He certainly has not made any charges, but has worded his intimatlons in such a way that he could not be held liable." Delancey Nicoll, attorney " for Mr. Gould, arrived in the city yesterday afternoon. '-'A He questioned Mr. Farnum at the hearing.

GOVERIIOB MAY REAPPOINT WOOD

Is Thinking of Retaining Him On the State Railroad Commission. WILL SEE CULLEN FIRST MARSHALL 8AIO DURING THE CAMPAIGN THAT HE INTENDED TO APPOINT A PRACTICAL ENGINEER TO THE JOB. Special Correspondent. Indianapolis, Ind.r April 22. Governor Marshall said yesterday afternoon that be may retain W. J, Wood as a member of the - Railroad Commission, though he intends to go to Lafayette in a few days to have a talk with Jack Cullen, the Monon engineer, with reference to his qualifications for the place in case the governor should take a notion to appoint him. This statement came somewhat as a surprise, because the governor sall during his compaign and also sinca, that be would appoint a practical railroad engineer to a place on the commission. The three commissioners now on the board are Wood, Dowling and McAdams. Wood is the only one of the three that has had any railroad experience. He was connected with a railroad in an official capacity for some time. Others Are Lawyers ; The other two are lawyers. When Marshall made his campaign he told In his speeches how he would reorganize the commission so as to have on the board one member who would know something about railroads, aud he believed an engineer, the most desirable because he is'required to knof more about the proper construction and maintenance of track and of cais and engines than a man in any other part of the railroad service. The governor says now, however, that Commissioner Woods is the oldest member of the commission and the only one that has been a member long enough to be "on" to the whole business of the commission. For this reason, he says, he regards it as doubtful whether it would be wise to remove him and put in his place a man who has had no experience on the commission. And this may cause him to retain Wood in his present position. It is said that there are not less than 150 applicant for the place. Would Be Calamity. , .During the campaign a report reached Marshall that Commissioner Wood had made the statement in a club at Evansville that it would be a calamity to elect Marshall governor, and it was said that he supported Watson as against Marshall, But lately this was disproved and the man who is said to have spread the report " has written the governor a letter telling him that he did not tell anything of the kind, and that he never heard Wood make such a statement. This cleared Wood s record before the governor and opened up the way for him to coqsider Wood for reappointment. It may be that the governor would rather reappoint Wood than take the trouble to pick out a new one from among the 150 applicants.

vST. v? : I: V. fi s i A ROOSEVELT NOW AT MOMBASA READY FOR HUNT When the Steamer Admiral Sailed Into Port a Salute Is Fired by the English Ship Pandora. EXPEDITION MAY BE DELAYED BY RAINS Wet Season in the Jungles Has Started, Making It Difficult to Hunt Gets a Warm Welcome. Mombasa, April 22. The steamship Admiral arrived at Kilindini at five o'clock last evening in the midst of a burst of momentary sunshine. The English warship Pandora saluted the Admiral, and the English officers swarmed aboard the Admiral and greeted ex-President Roosevelt. The latter was attired in a khaki suit. He told everybody that he was delighted with his trip. - The most interesting man to come aboard was Cunningham, the famous shikaree. He was mild-eyed and bewhiskered. Mr. Roosevelt seemed to be surprised when he saw him first. not recognizing him as the finest guide and hunter in Africa. Mr. Roosevelt Immediately corraled" him and the couple had a gabfest. Cunningham is the greatest hunter here, although, perhaps, America and England have heard more of Selous. Mr. Roosevelt dined at Mombasa's club last night. He will start for Nairobi tomorrow. The voyage has been delightful. It has been Roosevelt luck throughout; there have been no rough seas, and Acool breezes have blown -over the ship since we left Aden. It was even cool on the equator, and neariyg the end of the voyage we ran Into the rainy season, which the hunters . aboard tell me means that the early months of Mr. Roosevelt's hunting season will be difficult, and that It may be impos sible for him to hunt until later. On April 19, Mr. Roosevelt and Kermit obtained their fir6t glimpse of wild Africa. They went ashore at Magadiclo.Mn Italian ' Somaliland, be ing carried ashore on the backs of natives through the surf. The town is one of the oldest and most pictur esque in Arabia and, of course, is sur rounded by high ramparts to prevent attacks from what Kipling calls the "fuzzle wuzzies. Mr. Roosevelt was warned against going outside of the walls because the Mullah's nun, like the "Gobbulems, might git im. The captain solemnly warned Mr. Roosevelt against the chances of capture. The monotony of the long voyage from Aden . to Mombasa was softened through the formation of the Arabian Nights' club, to which Mr. Roosevelt humorously recounted his adventures in the wild West. Selous contributed tales of hairbreadth escapes while hunting In Africa. Tuesday night the captain of the Admiral gave a dinner in honor of the ex-president, making a speech. Mr. Roosevelt replied, speaking in English, French and German. Hw He Gained Ppotnimno. "This Mr. Muggins Is one of yow promlaent men, I suppose?" ' "Ob. yea."

SPLIT Id PARTY

WILLIE RESULT It Is Expected the Income Tax Feature Will Cause -Much Trouble. asaa ADVOCATES LOOK TO TAFT PRESIDENT: HAS NOT YET GONE ON RECORD . BUT , if IS ' BELIEVED : HE FAVORS ENACTMENT OF SUCH LAW. By Sheldon S. Cline. Washington, April 22. Dont be surprised if before the present .extra session of Congress ends the republican party is split wide open over the question of income tax. Conditions are shaping themselves for a row of firstclass dimensions. It. may be averted, of course, and every effort to that end will be made, but already 4be lines of battle are drawn. A-''k Senator Aldrich is at the head of one of the contending forces," declaring the tariff bill which his committee has reported to the' senate will, produce ample revenues for the government without the necessity of resorting to special taxation. The Rhode Island senator's statement upon presenting the bill was clearly a defiance of ther income tax advocates. , The opposition camp is yet without a recognized leader, but it hopes to acquire one in President Taft. .;, , Taft Not on Record. The president has not yet gone on record squarely as an income tax advocate, but he is tending in that direction. His public statements show him as believing in the principle of an in come tax and as believing it would be possible for congress to pass such a law as would stand the Supreme court test of constitutionality. In private utterances he has taken even more ad vanced ground and has said that con gress ought to pass an income tax law if the tariff bill will not produce" sufficient revenue and at the same time revise the schedules , in the direction of reducing the cost of liyihg. .", ! ' There are few students, of the -tariff who agree with Chairman Aldrich that the bill now pending in the senate will produce sufficient revenue. Nor is it generally agreed that the measure, if enacted into law, in Its present form. would materially reduce the cost of living. , If both these opposing views are correct, it is difficult to see just what benefit is going to result from tariff legislation at all. Not Tariff Expert. Mr. Taft frankly says " he is not a tariff expert. Therefore, he thinks. he is capable of appreciating the view of the average man. ' The average man feels pretty sure he will not get his fair share of the prosperity which is promised as a result of the proposed tariff legislation, and Mr. Taft has constituted himself the champion of the average man and when the time comes will not hesitate to throw his influence in the scale against the influence of the special interests which are so well represented at the capitol. RICHMOND PEOPLE GOOD DRESSERS Very few " cities In the United States can show as many welldressed people as Richmond, a. large per cent, of the men having their clothes made to order. Men can get fine suits made for $15, $18 or $20, when the same goods a few years ago cost almost twice as much. For sev en years Emmons Tailoring Co. have been making fine suits at $15, $18 and $20, and the business - has - Increased every year. They are now showing the largest stock they have ever shown. Over 000 styles in spring suitings. t inui The Gordian Knot, ' When one of Uncle Sam's sailor's, a man named Gordoa, formerly serving on one of onr vessels in a West Indian squadron, was taken to the Naval hospital In Washington he described with grewsome vividness te his companions there his adventure with a shark off one of the islands in the West Indies. "I had jest fell over the bulwarks," said the a Me seaman, "when along comes a big shark an grabs me by the leg." ,.- "What Old ye do then, matey?' asked one of the patients. "I never disputes nene with sharks, said the sailor. "I let him have the leg.--Hrper,s Weekly. A Composer's Compliment. Wagner once said be would prefer to go to Vienna to hear the waltzes of Strauss to hearing Italian opera. On a birthday of Mme. Strauss some years ago she had as guests many celebrated musicians. She passed around a fan on which the different composers and players were writing their names and excerpts from compositions of their own. When It reached Brahms he penned the first measure of the "Blue Danube" waits sad signed beneath. "Not. I regret to say. by your devoted friend Johannes Brahms." , The Word -Dell. The word doll may be taken at meaning the same thing as "MoT--that is, an image generally stwalriaa an Image of the human forsa. The French word "poesies" the Ger man Hpoupa" were derived from the Itln "pups," the word used for a chrysalis (Insect stage), the earllei kinds of dolls being remarkably like the pupae of Insects.

WAS NOT SO GOOD. "The Great Divide" Lacked Some, thing. ,The Great Divide"; at the Gennett last evening, did not produce the same sensation its first presentation did. There is no question about the merits of the play', but the acting was not up to expectations. The story Is one of power and purpose, such that can not be supplied by third rate actors. A Miller show deserves a more capable company. The ' English press was quick to take to Signor Creatore, the Italian conductor, who Is; soon to be heard in this city with his band at his "real worth and pronounce his concerts is the most notable musical event ever heard in London. The Musical Standard in part printed the following: One may well endorse the opinions of the American press that Creatore and Lis band are remarkable, and in their own line supremely excellent. Our National Anthem concluded the program and here the balance of tone, the smoothness of playing, and richness of color showed to great advantage. - The band is by no means all noise, and in the "Carmen" selection there were passages of much beauty and delicacy. The scoring in this number and some of the other items was excellent, The whole concert is given , exceedingly well, with a splendid ensemble and terrific enthusiasm. Creatore will be the attraction at the Coliseum, April 29. , The New Phillips. The bill the New Phillips is offering these last three days is comedy all the way, through and half the way back again. The main stunt is put on by S. Howard & Company, who are finished products of the amusement school. Then comes the Landeres company, acrobats, who are said to have made good in a large circus. But whether that is so or not, they could easily make good, had. they the opportunity And the laugh of the show is Andy Rankin, the eccentric musical corned' ian. To even hear Andy laugh will make you. laugh and It is quite a good interval spent listening to and watch ing hinu ; f ! 1 . . THE DUSY BEES. How the Inseefta Work When They Are Colleetmg Money. Upon the approach of see to say flower It files around the calyx almost always before alighting upon the flower Itself. This is a cursory examination, and with , its antennae outstretched and quivering tt Is evidently scenting the honey contained within. Should this preve a fruitful flower and of the flavor required the bee settles on the center of the stamen and. clutching it with Its four front legs steadies nseir with its longer outstretched two . hindermost ones and withdraws the nectar by Ms proboscis, the wings of the body assuming a vibratory motion the while. The bee's proboscis is a most Important mstrosnent It is composed of about forty cartfiaghious rings, each of which is fringed with minute hairs, having also a smal tuft of hair at Its ex ti entity, where it Is somewhat serrated.
