Hughes, left today for Washington, and Republican state chairman Timothy Woodruff arrived at Sagamore Hill and will be a lun cheon guest. It is expected that Roosevelt will soon make his attitude in New York affairs known. Today he said that he would see the newspaper men to night after Woodruff leaves and it Is probable that ho -will make a defi nite statement regarding tho New York situation. ' Governor Hughes, who went to Sagamore Hill yesterday and re mained there until today, had a long conferenco with Roosevelt. The col onel and the governor sat on the veranda for hours last night engaged In earnest conversation. It is be lieved that the whole political pro gram was canvassed.

Happy, that he had abandoned his "profession" many years ago, I and had since lived an upright life, Char ley Adams,- known as the king of burglars, but whose real namo was Langdon W. Moore, died hero today. Though at one time Adams was tho most nortorlous crook in tho coun try, for 14 years he lived honestly. With his last breath he referred to this fact almost joyously. "I made the right kind of a finish," he said. "I was able to dio among my friends.' Adams' biggest haul was made in connection with the robbery of tho Concord National bank, In 1865, when he made away with $306,000. In 1870 ho robbed a bank in Rock land, Me., of $200,000, but was cap tured. In 1880 he was convicted and sentenced to 15 years In prison. Adams estimated that he paid out fully $1,000,000 during his career for police protection. , Tho now headquarters of the Inter national Laundry Workers' Union have been established, at Troy, N.

Dr. Burdetto belloves that tho pe riod of concession-getting and trado development in China, so far as for eigners aro concerned, Is drawing rapidly to a close.

A truck patch is a vory useful part of the garden, but ono does not live Just to oat, and thero aro dowy mornings and still moons and rosy sunsets all along tho way of life when tho truck patch brings no solace and ono longs for the sweetness and tho quiet of rose gardens. And they aro all around us If ono could once get boyond tho bounds of tho truck garden. Jn fact thero aro ingenious gardeners who plant roses along tho borders of tho truck garden, in and out of tho homoly things that grow thoreln. A long, hot day In a noisy factory Is not the sum total of life for tho worker thero.

Then thero are tho convolutions that re spond to tho appeal of human sym- pathy, making us aware of tho kin ship of mankind, tho blessod fellow ship that tho man of Galllleo lived to mako possible. But thoro aro t,omo persons whoso minds do not oven grow turnips nnd onions, but aro clvon up to wild growth of nox ious woodB, going purposoly through life. , And thero aro some who starve b'ecauso thoy grow only roses. A woll-cultlvatcd mind must not scorn tho kitchen gardon spaco nor prohibit tho roso. o liy Way of Cominunl, "Tho gardon of man's, mind wa not wholly intended for turnip and onions.

It Is certain that deprav ity Is not arrived at In a plungo from moral heights to Its depths. Tho dencont is gradual, nnd the mora carefully hlddon tho deterioration may bo, tho moro dangerous. To Ilka a man or to much admlro one who haliever given any ovldenco of tho lovo of righteousness in his life shows something lacking in ono'o own spiritual fiber. A man may habitually falsify, may bo without moral courage Jn the little affairs of ovory-day Hfo, may not bo ablo nor care to resist tho temptation to take what does apt., belong to him, may speak disrespectfully of women and do a hundrod other things that show tho yellow streak, nnd yet bo so personally attractive that ho can count his frlonds by tho hundrudR among woman, while a lose inopqe seeeJug man. hns only n fow, A man with the courngo to toll (he truth, ovon when it is to his own disad vantage and with thnt strength of ilmracter that makes It Impossible for him to be moan or petty or dls honeat, Is the kind of man who ought to be a girl's Ideal.

A girl should hedgo horself about with all the customs that society has ordained for her protection. To mako ac quaintances easily and without pro per introduction puts a weapon in tho hands of a man, for his respect for a girl who will permit oven him to mako such acquaintance Is very little, and ho will either refuse with contempt, offers of friendship with such a girl or mako a pretense, treating hor according to what ho considers her own valuation of her self. .
