LAUDS "TENNI8 CABINET"
President Says Goodbye Words
at
Luncheon In White House.
Iresldent Roosovolt gave a luncheon
nt tho White House to members of tho
lamous "tennis cabinet" and others
who havo been closely associated with
him during the last seven years. Asldo
from tho distinguished government of
ficials who havo served as among tho
president's aides during his adminis
tration, and alba as his companions at
uports of different kinds, there wero
present men whom tho presVleni. had
made friends with when he wns rough
ing It in tho west years ago and with
whom he had gone ou numerous huut
lng expeditions. Tho president In a!
brief speech laid emphasis on tho
point that no administration hud given
Its ,chlof more loyal servlco, nnd ho
tstated that ho believed that tho coun
' try bad never had a more devoted set
of public servants than those men
through whom, ho said, most ot the
woik of his administration had been
.accomplished.
' The president In his remarks fol
lowing tho luncheon, said:
"Whether a man is a cabinet minis
ter, n marshal, an Indian ngent. a let
ter carrier or a workman lu a navy
yard, or whether ho holds one of- a
hundred other positions, makes not
the slightest difference If he puts his
heart and his soul and his mind Into
his work, and Is content to accept as
his chief reward the satisfaction that
comes from knowledge that tho work
lias been well done. So, while I greet
you for yourselves, I greet you still
more as symbolizing, all of you, ono
who leaves public life when I leave it;
man who jnadc great personal sacri
fice when seveu years ago ho came
here to take oillce at my request; a
man who has stood ever since as tho
type of what a good public servant
should be; a man who for the last two
years has been one' of tho most use
ful cabinet ministers who ever sat at
the cabinet table Jim Garfield."

COOPER MURDER CASE
Te .nony of Witnesses for
Defense and State Differs.
Evidence Against Sharp Is Largely Cir
cumstantial Defense Has Sixty
Witnesses Waiting to Be Heard,
While State Has Fifty-two.
The seventh week of tho Cooper
Sharp trial lor the murder of former
Senator E. W. Carmnck ana, tho elev
enth day of actual testimony began ut
Nashville, Tenn., Monday.
Tho state has offered testimony to
show that Senator Carmack received
threats thut unless he omitted Colonel
Cooper's name from the columns ot
the Teunesseau, either ho or Cooper
would havo to die. Its witnesses told
how the senator, while In tho act of
speaklug to his friend and neighbor,
Mrs. Eastman, was startled by hear
ing Colonel Cooper say; "So there
you are, we have the drop on you."
Mrs. Eastman sworo that tho sena
tor was lu the act of raising his hat,
when the hostile voice was heard, that
he partially drew his revolver; that
before he could use It he was shot
and fell into the gutter dead.
On the other hand, the defense thus
far has offered testimony to show that
Colonel Cooper saw Carmack by acci
dent, while his son, Robin, tried to
lead him. away; athat ho turned and
said he would talk with Carmack; that
Robin Cooper followed his father;
that the moment Carmack heard Colo
nel Cooper's- voice he (Carmack) drew
his revolver; that Robin Cooper
sprang between his father nnd tho
senator, received the bullets aimed at
the elder Cooper aud then shot and
killed Carmack In self defense.
The testimony agalust Sharp 13
largely circumstantial. He met the
Coopers a tew minutes before the trag
edy, accompanied them to within 100
feot of the shooting aud walked away.
Miss Skelllngton, state llbrarlu.
swears that us she neared Sharp, she
heard, the shots and. aaked what It
Was. In reply, she claims, Sharp
said': "That is Dune Cooper killing
Senator Carmack." Oa the other hand,
Sharp swears he turned around, saw
the tragedy and when asked by Miss
Skelllugton, did not say, "That Is
Dune Cooper killing Senator Car
mack," hut did say: "That Is shoot
ing," and when the young womau.
asked: "Who Is shooting?" he said:.
"Shootlug between Carmack auxl.
Cooper."
It Is Impossible to forecast how long,
the trial will last.. The defense has,
sonic sixty witnesses- waiting to be;
heard while the state has flfty-two. It
is probnblo that it will be two weeks
before the argument will begin, and
also probable that the arguments, will
last a week.
