Beverly, Mass., Aug. 16. Special. The secret of President Taft'a splen did health is out It Is his ability to. take advantage of every opportunity to recuperate from his labors and to snatch a few minutes of refreshing sleep between activities, Residents along the shore boule vard have grown accustomed to the sudden appearance of an automobile with a big passenger just visible through the dustand that passenger sound asleep. It is the Presld.ct. The executive often sleeps In bis au tomobile, going or coming from the Myopia golf links that is, when he makes the Journey alone. The other day when the presidential party mo tored 71 miles over "lo'see Miss Delia Torrey, the aunt oftne'fjhjef Magis trate, the executive umbered peace fully nearly all the way back. The automobile went nearly 45 miles an hour the greater part of the way. It is 'this faculty of the President to snatch a moment's rest at every available opportunity the ability to throw off the cares of state and gain strength In little cat-naps that keeps the head of the nation strong and healthy despite his arduous labors. It Is said that on his trip across the continent and back last fall the presi dent would board his special train completely worn out after a speech or reception, drop into a chair,, and In a moment be fast asleep. Twenty min utes later, when a crowd at another station clamored for bis appearance, he would away, fully refreshed. ' Captain "Archie' Butt, military aide, has caught the habit. It Is a common sight late In the evening to catch a glimpse of the presidential automobile under an electric light, Captain Butt sound asleep. There are always two other occupants, however who are very much awake Robin son, the chauffeur, and the secret ser vice operative. - Most people, Including the presi dent of the United States, come to the summer capital with tbe Idea of en Joying the ocean btezes.

The tri butes to the lojiiirr;of the late liar vey W. Scott that lhce his death have, appeared W The "Oregonlan bespeak the high regard in which he was held by all alike, personal friends and po litical foes. The eulogies pronounced upon him by those who opposed him showed that even his political oppon ents admired the man because he had the courage to vigorously defend ,hls convictions. ' There was nothing of the cringing sycophant that "bows the pliant binges of the knee that thrift might follow fawning" In the make-up of Harvey W. 8cott If he liked a man, a principle or a policy, he said so In no uncertain language. If he did not like the principle for which a man stood, he fought him with all the weapons In his well-filled armory of denunciation. , He would rather be right than be consistent. , Scott was a statesman rather than a politician. He scorned the base de- drees by which the successful politi cian did ascend. Although he passed the age of three score years and ten, the allotted age of man, yet his death was untimely.
