WAITING FOR TJFT ; DROP IIM TESTS Officers Willing to Walk, But Find Riding Horses a Hardship. FOUR MEN BADLY INJURED

LIEUTENANT READ, THE PRESIDENT'S OWN aid. Was one of THE VICTIMSTESTS 8TARTED BY ROOSEVELT.

Washington. April 24. Naval officers are interested in a rumor, apparently well founded, that President Taft is seriously considering the advisability of modifying the physical

tests for them prescribed by President Roosevelt in the last year of his

administration. Under the Roosevelt order naval officers, to prove their

physical condition, have the choice of a . horsemanship. . bicycle or walking

test.

That Annapolis trains men to fight

ships and not to ride horses and bicy

cles is the contention of many naval

officers and they cite the fact that of those officers who have taken the

test a majority have decided tn favor of the fifty-mile tramp. What modifications President Taft is supposed to have under consideration are : not known, but It is believed that he will abolish the horsemanship and bicycle tests. -, Pour Were Injured. Four officers of the naval line have been seriously Injured in preparing for the Roosevelt tests. One of them is Lieut. Semmes Read, naval aid to President Taft. He was riding in Rock Creek park, Washington, recently, when his horse shied and threw him. His spine was injured, and this, with other injuries, the doctors say, will make him an invalid for life. "One ; of the very ; ablest ; of - our younger officers was tost when Read was injured. said a naval officer yesterday, "and it makes it all the harder when we realise that he was injured In an effort to qualify himself for a teat that bears no relation whatever to his duties as an officer of the Navy." Lieut. Commander: Powers Symington, ; was 'also hurt preparing for the linramtiiHtiln W wn thrnwn

Irving Place, this city. Those familiar

with the circumstances of the acci

dent say that Commander Symington

was lucky to escape with only a broken shoulder. ;

Simpson a Victim. Pay Inspector George W. Simpson

is the third victim of the Roosevelt horsemanship order. Inspector Simp

son was practicing In Washington when thrown. He had two ribs broken and has since been under the con

stant care of a physician. He was brought to New York a few days ago. The bicycle test was responsible for

the injuries received a few days ago

by Lieut. Needham Lee Jones. Lieut. Jones is on duty in the Bureau of Navigation in Washington, but it will be some weeks before he can resume work. He fell from his bicycle, while

training. for the test, a week ago last

Saturday. His head was badly hurt

and both of his wrists were broken.

Causes Merriment. It was also discovered a- few days ago that the young officers who have been doing the walking tests near Washington have been walking fiftyeight instead of the required fifty miles, a fact that has caused much merriment in the service. One officer, at least, proved that he did not mind the test. Lieut Frederick V. McNair, commanding the reserve torpedoboat flotilla in Norfolk, did the walking test in one day. He ran almost the distance. Not once did he stop to rest. It is said, and he got back to Norfolk in time to attend a dance' that night. The army officers are also wondering what President Taft is going to do

for them in the matter of physical tests. Very few officers of the army have shown any ill-effects from taking the Roosevelt riding tests. It has been said that the death of CoL Geo. F. E. Harrison, for so many years commandant of the Coast Artillery school at Fort Monroe, may have been hastened as a result of the test rides he made. In one of them he was compelled to drop out owing to sudden illness.

expedition, which has been completed

at Genneviliers, has been brought over to London and exhibited at the aero exhibition at Olympia. This air

ship, which is named the America, is about 200 feet in length, with a diameter of fifty feet, and is designed to carry not merely passengers, but also sledges and dogs. It is fitted with a

powerful engine and a petrol made specially large.

Minneapolis. Minn.. April 24. With final ceremonies to mark the end of an old order of things and the beginning of a new, the students of Stanley Hall have become a self-governing body. Full executive, legislative and judicial powers have been intrusted to certal t of their own number, chosen by themselves, and the system of self-government, which has been under way for the last week has already proved successful. Some of the rules in force by agreement are those regarding punctuality, order in the halls and ' leaving the grounds. No audible conversation Is to be allowed In the halls and no conversation during chapel service or dur

ing quiet hours. Result of Much Work. The adoption of this organised student government association was the result of several weeks' consultation with Mrs. Hickok, of the department of science, and the laws governing it are stated in the charter which was

granted the student body by the principal and faculty.

That the students are keenly alive

to the Importance of the step Is shown

In the preamble of the constitution.

which says:

"We. the students of Stanley Hall,

desiring to develop the power of initia

tive habits of self control, a sense of responsibility and a sense of co-operation for the rights and feelings of

others, and to instill a knowledge oc

political economy and a spirit of toy

lty to government, having been em

powered by the faculty of Stanley Hail

do ordain and establish the constitution."

While the final appeal is to the ad

visory board, consisting of the princi

pal and Instructors, the students are

directly answerable to the proctors. A

ereat deal of responsibility rests upon

the proctors and their duties are most

imnortant. These officials are an

notated by the executive board, and

they include the president, vice presi

dent, and represent the house girls ana

day pupils. .' .,-

Duty of the Proctors.

It is the duty of the proctors, who are selected by the pupils, to see that the rules are kept, and upon failure to do so a Dunil will be notified privately

by the proctor of the separate hall and after continued disobedience, her conduct wUl be reported to the executive board, which relieves the proctors of any further responsibility. After trial by the Judiciary court. In which tho pupil may be represented by her class teacher. she Is given a further trial the advisory board constituting the supreme court of appeal.

the charter took place the Rev. Theodore Payne Thurston gave the opening address. He said that real happiness came In honesty and honorable demeanor. " In guiding one's self so one would live In harmony with the law, the law would cease to become , a necessity. He further said: "Do not enter into the attitude to- ' ward your proctor as though they were policemen. It is just as important in its way as any office that can be

given. They are selected by your bal

lot, by your votes, to carry out your will. - It gives you the great, tremendous, beautiful, unusual privilege and

you should be very careful In the consideration that the officers are In no

way spies, but are only helping to help you govern yourselves.

This form of government exists in

many Eastern and Western schools

and is the only one established in tha

academic seminary schools. The present regime Is limited within the

grounds of Stanley HalL
