RELATIONS WILL BE DEFINED Western Trip of Ex-President Will Be Ente-ed Upon Tuesday of This Week. Oyster Bay. X. Y —Ex-president Roosevelt announced that Lloyd C ; Griscom. chairman o: the New York republican county committee, will come to Sacamore Hill Monday mora ine for a conference. Mr. Giistcm spent Sunday night with President Taft at Beverly, and although Colonel Roosevelt would not say so. It is known that Mr. Griscom will come tc Sagamore Hill as the bearer of an important message front President Tan. The conference, therefore, will f be of more than usual importance. The colore! would add nothing tc the bare announcement that Mr. Griscorn was to tome except to say that he had read with rare interest the dispatches from Beverly, intimat ing that the president is expecting Secretary Ballinger to resign, and tnat Senator Aldrich and Speaker Cannon in the future are to be in !es> direct contact with the administra tion. He refused to give his views on this subject or to say whether the message which Mr. Griscom bears constitutes another step in the ad ministration program for readjusting conditions within the party. It is be lieved here, however, that as a result of Mr Griseom's visit the exact rela tions between the president and the ex-president will lie more clearly de fined even though no public an nouncement be made. Since Colonel Roosevelt returned from Africa he has resolutely avoided placing himself on record in regard to the Taft administration. He has seen the president only once, and then for a comparatively short time during his visit to Boston for the Harvard commencement. So far as is known no messages have passed between them during that time and it is believed President Taft decided to ascertain where his predecessor stands, particularly in view of the na tional campaign which is soon to get under way Colonel Roosevelt's western trip is to star: on Tuesday of next week During the trip it is expected that he will {dace himself on record in regard to a number of matters of great inter est to the country and the republican party. One of them will be the con serration of national resources which has been the subject of so much dis cussion during the months which President Taft has been in the White House While it is believed that Colonel Roosevelt will not have one word of criticism of the administration in any of these speeches, there is good ground for the assumption that he will not depart from the vigorous stand for conservatism which he as sume 1 while he was president. Colonel Roosevelt also announced that he had decided on a third long trip. Starting some time in March he will go from coast to coast on a I trip which will occupy about one month.

Not little children, bat sons From comparing Matt. 57:55. 56, with Mark 15:40; 16:1, it appears that her came was Salome. The sons a ere James and John ‘Mark 10:551. Ac cording to Mark, the sons came ma king the request for themselves. This agrees with Matthews, for she came with her sons. The Request and Its Motive. "What wilt thou*" It was best for them to spread out in the clear light their secret thoughts and hopes. Sac a a. statement is often more than ha‘.f a cure. “Grant that these kt two sons may sit. the one on thy right hand, and the other on the left. In thy king dom.- That is. in the two chief places of honor. The first place of honor was the right hand of the sovereign; the second, the left hand. “Ye know not what ye ask ” They knew not the greatness of the favor they asked—how blessed beyond their highest dreams It was to sit on the right hand of the Son of God. how radiant the glories of that kingdom were to be. “Are ye able to drink of the cup that I shall drink off” Have you counted the cost? Can you pay the price? "They say unto him. We are able.’ The language of assurance somewhat overweening, for it was the assurance not wholly of faith, but partly of ig norance of themselves and of the fu ture. They fied with the other dis ciples, in the night of the arrest. Jesus showed them the only true way. and turned them from the path they thought led to the desired good, but which led them away from the goal They drank the Lord's cup. Judas alone took the wrong way, and utterly failed of his hopes. True Greatness. How to Make the Most of Life —Vs. 54-tS. “And a hen the ten heard it. they were moved with indignation ’ This shows that they had the same feelings as the two brothers. It is our own faults that we most condemn when we see them mirrored in others. The selfish think others are selfish; the fretful thick others are In bad temper. They were all in one boat. They all alike needed the in struction which Jesus proceeds to give. “But Jesus called them unto Mm.“ Their controversy In the last Terse had been carried on aside and apart from Jesus. “Te know that the prince* oT the Gentiles" L e. this Is the plan in the worldly kingdoms In distinc tion from his spiritual kingdom. 'Ex ercise dominion orer them." Lord it orer them, exercise tyranlcal and arbitrary power. Not for the good o! the governed, but for the advantage of the rulers themselves, as the French king said, voicing the old idea at kingship. "I am the state." The Need of Opened Eyes.—Vs IMi. There is not room to entei upon this section of the lesson in de tail: and to do so. even if we could would detract from the great lesson we have been studying. Jesus and his disciples have crossed the JordA and reached Jerichc on the way to Jerusalem. The True Greatness. “But tt shall not be so among you." The whole principle of Christ's kingdom is the exact opposite of the usual world ly plan. Nearly all the erils that have come to the church have come throng* a disregard of this command—a desire to be honored and to rule, rather than to serve and help. “But whosoever will be great among you." Jesus does not forbid the desire to be great, but only the desire for selfish greatness. The wish to be greater than othe-s is a wrong ambition. The wish to be as great, as good, as possible, is right, ha*, has its dangers. MAY RULE CANADA Duke of Connaught Likely to Be Governor General Popular Brother of the Late King Edeard is Reported to Be Slated for Head of the Dominion Government. Ottawa, Can,—If the present pro* cram is adhered to the next gov ernor general of Canada will •he Duke of Connaught, brother of tha late King Edward. Such was the de sire of the deceased monarch, and the probabilities are that the r.ew Kins will not oppose the program. Can ada appreciates the distinguished hon or of having at the head of her gov ernment as the representative of the mother country so eminent a member of the royal family. Never before has one of the royal family occupied such a position, though Queen Victoria's daughter, a sister of the duke, was for years a resident of the Dominion when her husband, the Marquis of Ijonae now the Duk» of Argyle. was governor general. At the same time the Canadians appreciate that society affairs at Rideau Kali, or Government House as it is sometimes called, the official residence of his excellency at Ottawa, will be upon a much grander scale than in the pest, and that It will cost a pretty penny for those who try to be in the swim. Ottawa, more than ever, will become the social center. The Duke of Connaught is the only surviving son of Queen Victoria and is f.p years old. Her majesty had nine children, of whom the eldest was Princess Victoria, mother of Emperor William: she died in 1901. The sec ond child was the late King Edward. The Princess Alice Maud Mary, moth er of the present Ciarina of Russia, died in ISTfi. Alfred. Duke of Edin burg. died in Leopold. Duke of Albany, died In 1SS4. Reside the Duke of Connaught there survive Helena, Princess Christian of Schleswig-Hol stein; Louise. Duchess of Argyle. and Beatrice, now Princess Henry of Bat tenberg. The Duke of Connaught married Princess Louise of Prussia in 1S79. and has three children. His eldest daughter is Mares’-et. wife of Gus tavus Adolphus of Sweden. His son is Prince Arthur Patrick, and his young er daughter is the beautiful and de cidedly independent Princess Victoria Patricia. No princess in Europe has given such evidence of hartng a will of her own as tas the Princess Patricia OVer and over again has a husband been selected for her by those wise in statecraft, but she has bundled these suitors off with slight ceremony and has repeatedly dec'ared that she wili have a husband of her own choosing or none at all. She is the'most popu lar princess in England and was a favorite of her uncle. King Edward Her name, which is a compliment to Ireland, alone makes her popular with the people of that part of the empire. The British government has a pun pose in sending to Canada a prince of the royal blood. It is believed a gov ernor general so close to the throne would tend to forward the empire movement and bring the Dominion in closer sympathy to the mother coun try. The governor general as a mat ter of fact has very little to do with the government of Canada. He has the power of veto but never exercises that right. Did he do so there would be as great a commotion as would oc cur if the King in England should set himself actively in opposition to the elected government. But nevertheless he has a tremendous influence, though it is operative only rtrough social and diplomatic channels. His salary is $50,00© a year with an executive resi dence. Those governors general who have been most popular and Influential have been those who have really come to love the Doimnion and its people for themselves and have developed m deep interest in their welfare. Wheth er the duke and his family can forget he life in England to which he has jeen accustomed remains to be see".
