appearance today Theodore Hooeevclt
had recovered entirely from the effects
of his trip Into the South American Inn
Kits. Fle da vii at SKamor Hill have
brought hack Ills full measure of strength
find chased away the line which fur
rowed his face when he returned.
As he. sat on the broad veranda of his
home on the crown of the hill today,
looking over tha tofts of the trees below
the bay, he appeared to be as fit' phys
ically as before he went away. There
are a, few. more Bra' hairs In his mus
tache and his weight hna been reduced
considerably; otherwise there were no
flgns of change In his appearance from
the day he set forth for the southern
continent
Ilnlila War Council.
When Colonel Roosevelt returned to
this country some concern was folt an to
his condition, and a period of rest was
prescribed. Ho protested that he wanteJ
to obey Instructions, but the fact was
that he seldom had been aa busy as at
the present time. He found time today to
take a Ionic walk across the country with
Mrs. Roosevelt. The remainder of the
day was given to & long council of war
with a few of his assistants and to work
with his stenographer.
Tha political outlook In New York and
Ohio na taken up today. Plans for a
vigorous campaign In New York state
were outlined. Much of Colonel Hoosevelt's
time and energies are to be directed to tho
fight In this state, which Is expected to
give one of ther severest tests of tho
strength of the new party. Theodora Doug
las 'Robinson, chairman of the state com
mittee, and Regis II. Post, forrrrar gov
ernor of Porto lllco, who was ono of tho
pioneers In this state In the formation
of the party, spent several hours at Sag
amore Hill. With them were James It.
Garfield of Cleveland, secretary of the In
terior under President Roosevelt, and
Arthur I Oarford of Klyrla, both active
In party affairs In Ohio.
Not to rtn n for Governor.
So far as could be learned the proposal
that Colonel Roosevelt accept the pro
gressive nomination for governor of New
York was not brought up. Although the
former president has been urged by some
of his assistants to consider the pro
posal, it can bo stated authoritatively
that he can forsee no contingency in
which he would give the matter serious
thought
Colonel Roosevelt would nay nothing to
indicate that the stato ticket had been
discussed today. It Is understood, how
ever, that Oscar S. Strauss, who was the
progressive candidate for governor two
years ago, has been brought forward as
a possible candidate this year for United
States senator.
For the candidate for governor" several
names have been mentioned. They In
clude Frederick M. Davenport, former
stato senator and candidate in 1912 for
lieutenant governor! William H. Hotch
kiss, former superintendent of Insur
ance, and Balnbridse Colby, New York
lawyer and one of the most active pro-
gresalvo campaigners in 1912.

Fellow Prisoner of.
Silliman at Saltillo
Tells of Experiences
WASHINGTON, May 24. Vice Consul
John Silliman, the cause of siich pro
longed anxiety on account of his dlsap-ix-arance
at Saltillo, remained at Mexico
City today, recuperating from the hard
ships of the trip from Saltillo, and ex
pecting to depart for Vera Crux Monday,
According to reports reaching the Stste
deportment.
One of his fellow prisoners In the
Saltillo jail, Dr. Franklin Moore, called
at the Stato department today and told
of his experiences. Mr, Moore was a
practicing physician of twenty years
standing In Saltillo. He said tranquility
had prevailed there all through tho earlier
phae of the revolutionary movement,
until April 23 n telegram signed "Victor
land Ituerta" wss received from the capl
tol, stating American warships w'ere bom
barding Vera Crlis. Immediately follow
ing tho signature were the words "Hang
all Americans," presumably added by ths
telegraph operator.
Messages from the civil governor sum
moned all Americans in Saltillo to head
quarters. Tho doctor excused hlmstlt
from the patient he was attending, with
a promise to return In a fow minutes,
nut li waa fifteen' days before he was
agnln at liberty. He was first placed In a
cell thfeo feet by seven feet for twenty-
four hours, but tho following day he was
admitted to a large room where all the
American prisoners were gathered, In
cluding Vice Consul Silliman. They wers
treated fairly well and were released onlj
after they had Jointly signed a statement
reciting that they had simply been de
tained to ensuro their protection against
violence Ht the 'hands of the people, Silli
man, however, was held after the1 others
left, on the charge that he was a spy.

Never Before
has it been possible to buy n new edition of the
Encyelopnedin Britannica at such low prices as
will obtain until May 28th 3 days after today.
Never Before
has the demand been so great, the manufactur
ing so extensive, the capital invested so consid
erable, tho book itself so good a piece of work,
and
Never Before
has anyone been able to pay $5 down with his
order iind reeeivo the whole sot 29 magnificent
volumes complete in one shipment. All previ
ous methods of publication have involved the is
sue of each volume separately, and its sale and
delivery to subscribers separately. Tho 25 vol
umes of tho 9th Edition, for example, were is
sued during a period of fourteen years 1875
Nto 1889.
Tho present plan of, publication all the
volumes issued at one time, and therefore all
of uniform date was a
Revolution
in Publishing
Several men sat down together in London
and discussed ways and means of making a com
f lately new edition of tho Encyclopaedia Bri
tannica the great standard work of reference
of tho whole world.
"Wo will go to work," said one of the
men, "and make tho whole Encyclopaedia
Britannica, the whole story of human, knowl
edge down to date, as one complete work,
before we put a line of it into type, or print
a copy for sale. This is the way the book
ought to be made, but has never been
made."
Eight years wore given to the undertaking,
and $1,500,000 was paid out to do it. When it
was all finished and ready to print, the manu
script contained about 44,000,000 words. When
you buy tho now Britannica, therefore,

an idoa which not only ensures a much better
book, but a much cheaper ono than ever before,
because it was now possible to print and bind
the whole 29 volumes of an enormous encyclo
paedia, as ono complete book, and therefore re
duce all manufacturing costs to a minimum. (H
it had been produced under the old piece-mear,
volume-by-volumo method of publication, tho
selling price would have been 30 to 40 per cent
higher.) Also, it enabled tho publishers of tho

well aa other specialists of other kinds, representing, In
all. 6t distinct professions and occupations.
Manufacturing
On a Gigantic Scale
10,000 sets at a time. Printers and binders
could be employed continuously, as long as
there was a ready demand, and a new printing
could follow immediately after the preceding
one was off the press. The demand, fortunately,
was constant, so that the mere saving in print
ing and binding in large lots was sufficient to
justify the publishers in keeping the selling
price at a low figure. If the manufacturing had
been in small lots instead of large lots, we
should long ago have had to increase the prices.
When you buy the new Britannica, therefore,
you profit not only by an idea Tvhich has given
the public the best, tho fullest and most nearly
perfect encyclopaedia ever issued, but
You Profit by
Large Savings
in cost of raw materials, printing and binding.
You niay gain some idea of the magnitude of
the manufacturing from the fact that we have
had to use more than 2,100 tons of India paper
for the 11th edition, the skins (for binding) of
825,000 sheep and goats, and' that 16 large cyl
inder presses have been at work continuously
for more than two years and a half.
65,000 Sets
have now been printed, bound and delivered to
date at these low figures, which wo. are about to
increase. You can share in the present success
of this offer at low prices, and, if you send your
order at once, using the attached order fonn,
you will never regret it. But
Never Again
can you get these beautifully printed, hand
somely bound India paper volumes at suoh a
low price. After Thursday next we must ad
vance the prices by $29 to $50 a set, according
to the binding. Our letter of instructions from
the publishers of the Now Encyclopaedia Bri
tannica, the Cambridge University'Press of En
gland, says:
'Under no circumstances, will
'any extention after May 28th
'be given, and orders at present
prioes postmarked after that
'date must be .returned. '
(Signed) C. F. CLAY
Manager
After May 2Sth
the new Britannica will be manufactured in
small lots, a few thousand sets each year, and,
as tjie manufacturing cost will be so much high
er, the selling prce will have to be increased in
proportion. . '
f
It Is Impossible . , v
at the Moment
to promise any immediate deliveries ajt all,' be
cause of the fact that the demand, for. the work
is still insistent, and has, in fact, more than
.trebled within two weeks, so that no more com
plete sets can be sent out until a new supply ar
rives from the binder.
