WASHINGTON, July U.Prsident Taft.
the summer "Bachelor" of the White
House Is sharing the fate of many other
government officials and Washington resi
dents whose famine have avotfxa way to
mountains and seashore. "TTPS" president Is
taking the situation philosophically, does
not seem greatly to mind the hot weather
and Is reading dally letters from Beverly
which tell of the rapid Improvement In
Mrs. Taft's health. " '
Living bachelor fashion at the White
House is not fraught with the aaroe dls
comfort that beset the mre tnstf wtto has
bis , boms "dosed. . p on hm"V whea4il
wife goes 'away arid Is compelled to seek
food and lodgings as best he may. , , ,
The president and" Mrs. Taft divided' the
White Hotine-"help" when the occuaancy
of the Beverly cottage was begun, so the
president 4s well taken care of and domes,
tie affairs at the Whtta House run on
much the same. ' Nesgrtj?-. '
The president, however, allowed Mrs
Taft to take tha "first cook" to Beverly,
while he makee himself content with the
"second cook." Tha second cook Is a leg
acy from the Roosevelt administration, a
negro girl named Mary who halls from
Virginia anil whnae ura v nvr tha WhltA
House kitchens now IS complete. Mary
has tew peers as a cook In any matter
gastronomic, but aa Is to be supposed, she
Is at her best when frying chickens and
making hoe cakes. ; The president Is en-
tertalning many luncheon and dinner
guests during his bachelor days and the
second cook Is providing menus which few
Imported ohefs could hope to equal.
Ant Rid In Bvcnlnaj.
The president hss happily solved the
problem of disposing of the long evening
by takings automobile rides about ths city
and suburbs. He usually starts out on
these trips about 9:30 o'clock returning to
the house at 11 or later. Captain Archi
bald Butts, tha president's aid, la always
his companion on these Journeys and usu
ally the president telephone ah Invitation
to Some cabinet officer, senator or repre
sentative and stops at the tatter's house or
club to pick him up. The evening ride
often extend out Into the beautiful Rock
Creek park, which stretches for miles
along the little waterway whose name It
bears. At other times Mr. Taft has his
chauffeur drive about thactty or on the
Potomao park driveways which skirt the
river back of the White House and tha
Monument grounds.
Aiiaing at about T o'clock, the president de
votes nearly an hour, to dumb bells, pulley
weights and other forms of exercises pre
scribed for him. He breakfast and usually
alyne, although for the last day or two he
has had a guest from a.ncng tha tariff
conferee. During tha moriiinj meal, and
for half an hour or so afterward the presi
dent reads the newspaper. Between 8:30
and 10 he begins his busy day In -the, ex
ecutive office. At 1.30 comes luncheon at
the ' White House always, with soma in
vited guest tfor ' company. The afternoon
is devoted ta golf for ths president hopes
to play every afternoon that he remain
In Washington. - ' "Dinner always ' find

SAW P. T. BARNUM'S CIRCUS
JUST SIXTY-FIVE YEARS AGO
Jaatiro Coekrell Remember When
Original Tom Thumb Traveled
with Greatest Show on Earth.
"It was just sixty-five years ago this
summer that I saw PT. Barnum with his
original show In Jerseyvllle. 111." remarked
Judge O. C. Cockrell, yesterday afternoon.
aa h was watching a large crowd trailing
toward the circus grounds to witness the
Barnum A Bailey performance.
"With Barnum at that time was the
original Tom Thumb. The circus traveled
In a few. covered wagons then and was
thought to be a great affair.
"From our town a few years later a
young fellow by the name of Hutchinson
joined the Barnum shows and ' traveled
around with them for several years. Fi
nally h was. taken -In as a partner when
the firm became Barnum, Bailey & Hutch
inson circus. A few years later Hutchin
son retired from the circus business and
now Is a prominent banker In New York
City. He quit the circus business, a million

MANDAMUS READY TO FILE
EnatlUh Hai Draws' I'p Petition In
Behalf, of Caldwell A Drake,
. Court Hoosa Contractors...
The petition of the qounty attorney for
an Injunction 'compelling County.. Comptrol
ler Solomon to pay the warrants of Cald
well St Drake, the new court house con
tractors, has been prepared and ' Is ready
to be filed.
The controversy arises from the faot that
under the law of claims the county comp
troller Is forced to hold all claims allowed
by the county commissioners for ten days
before delivering them. Last Saturday,
when the board Issued a warrant for $6,700
to the contractors, they expected to get
their money Immediately, but were delayed
by Mr." Solomon's holding that their olalm
would have to wait as do all other claims.
The county attorney gave as his opinion
thst the payments to Caldwell A Drake
on their contract are not properly claim.
but liquidated debts, ; nd for that reason
should not be held. In the petition all
these facts are set forth, as well as the
reasons of the comptroller for holding up
the warrants, and the court will be ex
pected to ask tha comptroller to show cause
for his delay. If the construction of the
county attorney Is accepted, the court will
Issue a writ of mandamus, permitting Cald
well r Drake to get their money each
month, - as soon as tt Is allowed by the
commissioner.

An alibi was furtllshed for Miss Agnes
May Barretts,. proprietor of a lacs store In
the Wellington hotel, Who Is accused by
Miss Glngles of being the moving spirit
In tha plot to lesd her Into "white slavery,"
and of abusing and cutting her in the bath

Mies Mary Hale, proprietor of a hair
dressing parlor told of. meeting Miss Bar
retts the evening of February 18, and of
attending the theater with her. Later,
she said, they went to Miss Barrette'S
room and went to bed. Th1 was the time
the Glngles tftrl testified she . was being
mistreated by Miss Barrette and her com
panions.
Did Miss. Barretts .have anything to
drink that evenlng.i' asked Mr. O'Donnell,
on crow examination.
"No I never saw her touch a drop."
Action of O'lonarll.
Detective Sergean Charles McNulty gave
testimony showing the peculiar actions
of Mr. O'Donnell whMT he was Informed
a mysterious note that his client was
in danger at tha hotel.,
O'Donnell met me in Captain O'Brien's
office," said MoNultyj "We got a taxlcab,
and O'Donnell .directed the driver to go
to 474 La Salle avenue. . I asked him why he
was going to the house first. He said hs
wanted to make sure: that Ellag was not
at home. He showed us the note saying
she was being killed at the hotel.' Then
we went to O'Dohnell's office and then
to the hotel."
"O'Donnell told me to go In and see If
Miss Glngles was there. , I asked the clerk,
and he said no on pf that name was there.
We drove back to the station. Captain
O'Brien met us and told us to. go back
to In hotel, as Ella was In the bath room.
On the way back to ths hotel O'Donnell
said that there waa a man at French Lick
who was employing Miss Barrette and
Mrs. Kenyon as procurers. He said the
man was Tom Taggart, I believe.

When we got tt the hotel w .found Ella

covered with 'dost, showing -that no one
could have crawled over it, as alleged by
Miss Glngles,
Attorney O'Donnell' lasted the witness- If
he (the attorney) eer"J had shown any

. E. Brown, United States Commis
sioner of Education, Talks of
Convention While in Omaha.
Dr. Elmer Ellsworth Brown of Wash
ington, D. C, United States commissioner
ot education, was in Omaha for a few
hours Tuesday, the guest of Dr. William
M. Davidson. Dr. Brown arrived at 1:46
p. m. from Denver, where he attended
the National Education association meet
ing, and was met at the train by Dr.
Davidson.
"The Denver convention, while ' not the
largest wa have had, was one of the most
Important aa ' to results, and particularly
wjlh regard to the stimulus It has given
Industrial education' said Dr.' Brown.
"The three great features of the'. conven
tion were those bearing upon Industrial
ism, hygiene and morals in education.
These have become permanent factors in
the educational system of the United
States and will continue to occupy the
highest lank. The day of prejudices
against industrial training in the public
schools has long since paused."
Dr. Brown was given a drive about the
city during the early evening in company
with Dr. Davidson and General Mander-
son.
'The old course of study must give way
to tha new course," said Dr. Davidson,
'and give emphasis to the practical side ot
education as well as the theoretical side," he
added. "Education today should be one-half
liberal and one-half .Industrial. The liberal
Is the education, that largely prevail. The
Industrial has been so far developed as to
demand that a new unit must be created,

Dr. Davidson said It seemed good to get
back to Omaha where it is cooler, as all
the time he was In Denver the weather
Was stifling, and what was worse, the
air did not cool off at night. He made a
side trip to Pike's peak, and there secured
a breath of cool air.
Prof. Ellis U Graff, principal of the
Omaha High school, and Dr. Lorenso D.
Harvey of Menominee, Wis., retiring presi
dent of the National Education associa
tion, and President Hlller of the North
Dakota state normal school at Maysvllle,
accompanied Dr. Davidson on the return
trip. Dr. Harvey and President Hlller did
not stop In the city.

NEW CHANCELLOR IS NAMED
Von Buelow to Be Succeeded by Yon
Bethmann-Eollweg.
IS MAN OF HIS OWN CHOICE
i
Relcbslagr 1 Adjourned by Emperor
Until Antamn Socialist Show
Their Disapproval of Blon
rchlrs.1 Institution. v
BERLIN, July IS. Prince Von Buelow,
the retiring imperial chancellor, will for
mally propose, in his audience with Em
peror William tomorrow, that he be suc
ceeded by Dr. Von Bethmann-Holweg, sec
retary of the interior and vice chancellor.
There Is reason to believe his majesty will
accept this proposal and that the appoint
ment will be gasetted at once. Prince Von
Buelow will thus be permitted to name hie
own successor at Emperor William's re
quest. .
Dr. Von Bethmann-Holweg la a college
friend of the emperor and during the lat
tes's entire reign ha oftn advisad his
majesty. -. ..
- He baa, however, shown a disinclina
tion to accept high offices. H 1 a man
of reserved and thoughful habits and some
times has been called th "philosopher
statesman."
Even at his own receptions h some
times wears an air of pre-ocupatlon.
Dr. Bethmann-Holweg Is of Jewish origin.
He is now 53 years old. In his youth he
studied law and waa appointed assistant
Judge. Before he was 30 years old he had
been made district governor of Ober-Bar-nlm,
and later h became provincial presi
dent of Potsdam, where the suburban pal
ace of Emperor William Is located. During
his three years at Potsdam he saw much
of the emperor, and the . two took long
walks and rides In the environs.
Following hla sojourn at Potsdam, Dr.
Von Bethmann-Holweg's promotion was
rapid. He became president of th govern
ment ot Bromberg and later president of
the province of Brandenburg, from which
post he took up the portfolio of Prussian
minister of the interior. He then followed
Posadowsky as Imperial minister.
After fhe clerk of the Reichstag had an
nounced today the passsg of the bill pro
viding Increase in the salaries of civil
servants, Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg rose
and said that as the representative of
Prince von Buelow, he had a message
from the emperor to read. His communi
cation was a dec re closing the present
session of the hou. which will not re
assemble until next autumn.
As had been expected, the socialists, to
show their disregard for monarchical In
stitutions, remained seated while ths mes
sage was being read. The socialists then
left the chamber, while the other delegates
gave three cheers for Emperor William.
