Washington, D. C, June 5. No decision ever reached by the Cabinet of a President created greater excitement than this pronunciameato issued by President Taft a day or two ago: "The President wants the cook. to

stop sending up to him every day at 1 o'clock a red apple and a shreddedwheat biscuit for his luncheon. , He wants substituted for it a meal worthy of a grown up man. . There must in the future be a cup of soup, a bit of roast or fish, a vegetable or two, a seasonable dessert or fruit, and a glass of iced tea or buttermilk." The members of Mr. Taft'a Cabinet who have been conforming to the "simple lunch" habit set by their boss manifested their exultation by a chorus of joyful thanksgiving. They have all fallen into the practice of going over to the Metropolitan club, where they serve a fine luncheon, and negotiating the entire bill of fare, from

soup to cigars. Secretary . of State

Knox, who doesn't -weigh much more than three ham sandwiches, has gained ten pounds already, and1 Attorney General Wlokersham, who was the only member of the Cabinet that refused to adopt the 6imple life luncheon, has the laugh on his associates who did. The President inaugurated his new policy of taking three square meals a day for two reasons. First, he found that the cravings of the inner man were not satisfied with two and a half

meals, and, secondly, his system of ex

ercise has kept his weight down and

he thinks he can safely return, to the old way of working off three square

meals.

The President discovered some time ago that he could safely take care of three full meals by continuing his

daily golf and horseback riding. Since

Decoration day he has not missed a

midday meal.

Joshua Hunt, a well known and aged

citizen, is looking forward to June 15, with much expectancy, as he is anticipating a visit from his brother, Sam

uel Hunt, a retired farmer, living in

the northeast part of Nebraska, whom

he has not seen for fifty years. Besides the reunion of the two, they in

their correspondence, have planned to

revisit their old home near Cambridge,

Ohio, which neither have seen since

they left it 62 years ago this summer.

In Mexican War.

Joshua Hunt, after learning the

printing trade at Cambridge, Ohio,

went to Cincinnati, where he wafc located when the Mexican war broke out. He enlisted and after serving two years again located in Cincinnati and finally

in this city, where he has resided ever since. His brother left his home for the west about the same time as did Joshua Hunt.' Both Mr. Hunt and his

brother Samuel, are well advanced in years, but both are hale and hearty.

The toasts that oft we used to drink In- days ere came reform. f Must now be drunk with ne'er a drop. Or start a legal storm. Drink to me only 'with thy lamps. And I'll tank up on mine. Put nothing heady in a cup, Like bourbon, beer or wine; For should we use the oil of jov. Pursued by ginger ale. They'd label us bootleggers, dear, And slam us both in jail.

An addition to the zoo at Glen Midler

park was made Tuesday when a baby elk. was born. The little creature is frisky and will be one of the centers of attraction for the big crowd that will visit the park tomorrow. The monkey cage was placed today and the simians will attract the usual amount of attention and eat the usual number of peanuts. Flowers Beautiful. The flower beds at the park have been filled and now present a beautiful appearance.' The Glen never was prettier than it is just now. The need for better street car accommodations was never, more evident. Hundreds of persons who are old or otherwise afflicted who would delight in a visit to the park can not stand the long walk, from the terminals of the car lines and must miss the beauties of the place. These citizens will welcome any scheme of the company that enables it' to put cars nearer to the central part of the pask. They appreciate the scenic beauty of the place from a distance and do not believe it

would be marred by a nicely graded and sodded line of street car tracks.

Considerable damage was done to bi

cycles standing along the south curb

near Eighth and Main street yesterday

afternoon by a runaway team, belong

took fright at Tenth and Main street when the bridle of one of the horses

broke, placing the team beyond the Vaudeville

control of the colored driver. The driver climbed out on the tongue and ;

stopped his team from this precarious

position. The wheels were standing

along the south curb and were struck

by the wagon.

: Arrangements for the memorial ceremony in honor of Paul Laurence Dunbar, the greatest negro poet, which will be held at Dayton, June 26 are

about complete. The body of the poet

wh at one time lived in Richmond and is well remembered locally is to be removed from the grave it now occupies in Woodland . cemetery to a beautiful spo on the summit of one of tne hills. The niOther of the poet at first ob

jected to this procedure -fearing she

would not own the new lot and consequently her body, would not be inter

red by the side of her illustrious son. To overcome the mother's objection, the Dunbar association has decided to deed 5ie new lot to her and her body

will occupy it with that of her son.
