A OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, MAkCH 1, JQi2 II ROOSEVELT SAYS HE WILL ACCEPT Colonel Answers Governors, and Will be in Fight "Until the Convention." New York. "I wi'l accept the nom ination for the presidency if it is ten dered me and will adhere to this de cision until the convention has ex pressed its preference," is Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's reply to the letter of seven Republican governors aBking him to stand for a nomination. The reply was as follows: "New York, Feb. 25, 1912. Gentle men: I deeply appieciate your letter and I realize to the full the heavy re sponsibility it puts upon me, express- lug as It does the carefully considered convictions of the men elected by pop ular vote to Btaud as the heads of gov ernment in their respective states. "I absolutely agree with you that this matter is not one to be decided with any reference to the personal preferences or Interests of any man, but purely from the standpoint of the Interests of the people as a whole. I will accept the nomination for Presi dent if it is tendered to me and I will adhere to this decision until the con vention has expressed its preference. One of the chief principles for which I have Btood and for which I now stand and which I have always endeavored and always shall endeavor to reduce to action, is the genuine rule of the people, and therefore I hope that so far as possible the people may be giv en the chance, through direct primar ies, to express their preference as to who shall be the nominee of the Re publican Presidential convention.

Four troops of United States cavalry are patroling the Rio Grande with orders to cross into Cludud Juarez, if necessary, to protect American life and property. In case of fighting across the border line In the future, the American com manders have been instructed by the war department to Bend the usual no tice that American livos and property shall not be endangered.

A. MITCHEL During the war between the states an Englishman named Larkins, who had been a sergeant In the British army, came over to America to seek service with the Federal army. If he failed he would try the Confederacy. A soldier of fortune, he had no prefer ences, though In England the people were overwhelmingly In favor of the south. Larkins bad papers to prove his British citizenship, which enabled him to sojourn either In the north or In the south, as he pleased. He came over In a blockade runner to Charles ton, a C, and, going to Richmond, Va., made application for a commis sion. He was offered one, but by this time exhaustion had begun to show It self In the Confederacy, especially in a financial way, and Larkins was not pleased with the want of prospect of emolument in Its service. So he con cluded to try for a commission In the Federal army. Having declined the southern offer, he asked for a pass to go through the lines to Washington, telling the au thorities In Richmond that he bad been called home to England. It was fur nished him, and he left for the Army of Northern Virginia, at that time en camped between the two capitals, In tending, after having been passed through the lines, to work his way northward. The route he desired to take lay through Fredericksburg, and encamped upon the road was a divi sion commanded by a general whom I will call Beaumont. When Larkins presented his pass to the officer, telling him at the same time that he was a British subject, he was treated with consideration for the reason that the southerners were constantly hoping that the British government would In terfere In their behalf, and they were always ready to show attention to such English persons as came among them. General Beaumont showed great In terest in John Larkins, regretting that his recall to England had deprived the south of his services. The general told him that if he would remain und ac cept a commission be would appoint him to a position on his stuff. The Englishman was tempted; but, know iug that lie must take his pay in depre ciated Confederate currency, he ad hcred to his resolution, assuring the general that his recall was imperative. A number of officers were Introduced to Larkins, who looked upou him with considerable Interest. This he nttrib uted to the fact that he had told the cencrnl that he had fought in the Crimean war and took part In the cele brated charge of the Light brigade, of which he gave a vivid description. Whatever the cause, the cx-Brltlali sol dler was much pleased witli bis treat ment, nnd when he was urged not to hurry away he felt disposed to linger In Ills pleasant surroundings. Every one had heard of the charge that had thrilled the world and bad been com meuiorated by the British poet laureate Alfred Tennyson, so that one who had taken part In it was especially Inter esting to soldiers. Larkins hud reached General Beau mout's headquarters In time for lunch eon and was invited by the general to lunch with him and his stuff. During die afternoon Beaumont Invited the Englishman to rldo with him on u tour of inspection of his division, nnd in the evening the chief of staff, Captain Car ter, asked the visitor If he would not like to call upon a southern family liv ing in the vicinity. Larkins was not what would bo considered in England a gentleman und demurred at the iu vltntiou, but tho general urged him to make the acquaintance of at least one household of southern ladles while in America, nnd he consented. Larkins that evening met Caroline Fletcher, n captivating southern girl, who had only to smile upou litin to make lilm fancy Unit she had been smitten with him. When he told her that he was simply passing through the Hues and would go north the next day she pouted and insisted on a prom ise that ho would call Uion her the next evening. Gallantry led Larkins to promise, and he left her not quite knowing whether he was Btandlng on his heels or his head. Tlu next day he was shown more at tentions by the olllcers and In the evening called on Miss Fletcher. She received lilm on n veranda rich with tl.e perfume of flowers. She was care fully attired and looked bewitching. She flirted with Larkins for awhile, then began to ask hlin on which side of the American conflict Ills sympa tides were enlisted, lie assured her that he had no preference, whereupon she coquettlshly asked him If be would do her n service. Having declared that ho would be glad to accommodate her. she told lilm that she belonged to a t;nlon family and was bound up in the success of the Union arms. She con fided to him that she was sending in formation to Washington nnd ended by asking him If he would carry a written communication for her to Pres- I lent Lincoln.

Larkins promised, and that ended the episode. The nest day the Britisher said he would take his departure. He was In formed that be must be sent through the lines with a flag of truce, and the situation was not Just then fitted for the dispatching of such a flag. The enemy was restless, and there might be' fighting at any moment. So Lar kins was obliged to content himself at headquarters, which were not so agree able ns before the attentions that had been showered on him were dlscon-tlnued-that Is to say, he did not seem to excite the same interest as for merly. During that day one of the officers brought up to him a citizen whom he Introduced, expatiating on the ex-sergeant's experience In the Crimea. The man looked at blm closely, made some commonplace remnrks and withdrew From that time Larkins began to real ize that he was under surveillance. He had been furnished with n tent, which he occupied alone, und during the night was awakened by men talk lug outside. Curious to know what was going on, he got off his cot and looked out. Several privates were sit ting on the ground close by bis tent, smoking. He was surely under guard. What could it mean? He lay awake the greater part of the night wondering what object the gen eral could possibly have In treating him, a British subject, ns a guest, but really depriving him of his liberty. The next morning when he awoke the men had gone. An olllcer came iu and told him that a breakfast would be sent In to him. During t lie day he noticed that this same officer never lost sight of him. To kill time he thought he would go nnd call on Miss Fletcher. "Where ure you going?" asked his sbodower. "I'm going to pay a visit at the Fletchers'. I expect to be going as soon as the general will send me through, and I think I'll say goodby to them." "You won't find the Fletchers at home today." This wus said in a half commanding tone, ns If meaning, "Stay where you are." Larkins Bald nothing, but turued and retraced ills steps. lie was sitting In a camp chair that afternoon near General Beaumont's tent when an officer rode up. threw himself from his horse and went In to see the general. There being nothing but canvas to Intercept the sound, Lnrklns could hear n part of what was said. After some talk that he could not make out: "He's the man," the Inferior officer said. "Are you sure?" asked tho general. "Yes, general; the same fellow, play ing a different game." "When will he be here?" "Within on hour.' "Very well. We'll be ready for him." This was Greek to Larkins, lint the treatment ho had received nnd the fact of his being under surveillance, taken with the words "playing the same game," made lilm uneasy. As soon as the officer had left the general Lnrklns went Into his tent and said "See here, general, I wish to go through the lines nt once. If I am purposely detained 1 desire to know the cause." "I'll send yon through tomorrow morning." snld the general, speaking in a tone to Indicate thnt he meant to do what ho snld. "Am I detained In your camp?" "No. Go where you like." "Very well, I'll wait till tomorrow. If I am detained longer I shall tele- graph the British consul nt Richmond to come out here at once." "You'll not be dotalned-thnt Is, un less n battle opens." The next morning nt daylight T.nr kins was awakened by General P.enu- mont's orderly, who said that the geu eral would like to see lilm In his tent. Still uneasy, he arose and went to the general. An olllcer was there waiting. "This Is Major Clayton, Mr. Larkins. If you will go with lilm he will show you something to explain our recep tion nnd treatment- of you Rince you hnve beou with us.

STORMING OF STONY POINT, This Brilliant Feat of Armi, In Which Success Was Won at the Point of the Bayonet, Was One of the Most Des perate Incidents of Any War. One of the most marvelous achieve ments credited to American bravery and strategy was that of the capture of Stouy Point by Mad Anthony Wayne, who was one of the most pic turesque figures of the American revo lution. When he was superseded iu command of the Pennsylvania line, even after bis brilliant success at Mon mouth on June 28, 1778, a less ambiti ous and patriotic man would have re signed his commission. It seemed the Irony of fate that the setback 1n his career should follow so closely the official encomiums for his work at Monmouth, but that very set back gave lilm Stony Polut the great est opportunity of his life and he made good. There were , two Important factors, discipline and Valor, that entered Into this remarkable achievement, the cap ture of a fortress on the Hudson held by the British and considered almost Impregnable. Stony Point was an Is land and the fortress wns built on a rock which wns precipitous and rough. It wus guarded by three redoubts and protected by a double abatis of logs that extended across the peninsula. The post was garrisoned by C07 men, who felt so secure in their position that they were wont to refer to the post ns the "Little Gibraltar." On July 14 General Wayne assem bled all his troops at Sandy Bench, and at that moment uoue of his sol diers knew the plans of their com mander. The following day the march began over a wilderness trail and in perfect silence. Not n man was allowed to leave the column un der penalty of death. By 8 o'clock that night they were within one and one-half miles of the British fortress. Then the men were told of the desper ate work ahead of them and the but tle order read. No man was allowed to load his musket, and the battle was to lie won or lost with the bayonet alone. One portion of the order provided that any man found retreating n single foot was to be put to death at once. Close to midnight the order to ad vance was given. The fort wns to lie attacked from all sides. Once In mo tion General Wayne lost no time. The British opened fire wiih guns, both great and small. Seventeen of the twenty men In one advance guard were shot down, but the companies In the rear eagerly pressed ou. General Wayne himself, struck In tho head with a musket bnll, fell stunned. lie recovered In a moment and, rising on one knee, shouted: "March on! March on!" Then, turning to his aids he begged them to take him Into the fort so that if his wouud was mortal he would die at the head of his column. General Wayne's wound drove his followers to a frenzy. They dashed up tho hill and battered down all op position. Colonel Fleury, a French otilcer In the Amerlenn service, at the head of his determined band forced his way up the redoubt and as the soldiers poured into the fort grasped the British flag nnd lowered It The victory was complete. The British lost 53 killed and 543 taken prisoners, of whom 70 were wounded. The Americans lost 15 killed and had 83 wounded. It wns one of the most daring nnd desperate incidents of any war. From every point of view the .storming of Stony Tolnt was a remarkable feat of arms, but back of tho success of that night was a story of preparedness, the cause which hns always been over shadowed by the brilliancy of the re sult General Wayne had trained his men, stimulated their pride, enforced rigid discipline, hud them at the point of attack nt the right moment uud then with inspiring valor led tliem The victory nt Stony Point iintm ally aroused n tremendous enthusiasm, und it came nt the right time. The coun try was depressed If not quite discour aged, and Stony Point wus like a tonic, it gave the people more strength, more courage nnd at a time when they sad ly needed It.

Petersburg. Not very long ago a German organ ist who went to St. Petersburg to live bad there an experience with n new cap that for a time almost made him believe In the magic of the Teutonic fairy tales. The organist bought the cap during bis first day at the Russian capital and wore It the next day wlieu he went out for a walk. On his return to his lodg ings he wns amazed to And two gold purses In his pocket, one of which con tained a sum equivalent to $o0. The next day, after his usual walk, he found four purses In his outside pocket, a find that caused him to doubt his senses. A third day. with u simi lar profitable result, sent lilm to the chief of police to tell bis story. The authorities detailed tt detective to go with the German to the tailor who made the cap. Investigation dis closed the fact that it had been con structed of an odd piece of English cloth brought In by a stranger. From It the tailor had made fifteen identical caps to order. Having a bit left, he had constructed a sixteenth cap, which was the one sold to the organist. The detective then followed the or ganist through the streets of the city, when the mystery was solved. The cap, It appears, was the emblem of a gang of pickpockets working co-operatively. Tho one who secured a purse dropped It into the pocket of the first confederate he saw. The cap had Iden tified the German, and he hod reaped the rewurd. With this clew It was an easy matter for the Russian authorities to catch the whole gang. Youth's Companion.
