- | PAGE TWO. Harriman’s $50,000 For T. R’s Time and again Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, the third term party’s can- didate for president of the United States, has stated that the famous $240.- 000 raised by the late E. H. Harriman In the fall of 1904 was for use in the New York state campalgn. He also declired most positively'a few weeks ago that he had ordered Chairman Cortelyou of the Republican national commit- tee, not to accept any money from the Standard Oil company in that cam- paign and to return it if any had been accepted. On Monday, Sept. 30, C. C. Tegethoff, secretary to the Late E. H. Harri- man, produced the above receipt of the Republican national committee, signed by Treasurer Cornelius N. Bliss, for Mr. Harriman’s individual contribution of $50,000 to this fund, proving conclusively that it was used in behalf of Mr. Roosevelt's candidacy. The day following John D. Archbold, president of the Standard Oil company, produced the documentary proof that his com- pany did give $10,000 to Roosevelt's campaign fund and that it never was returned.

A Week Fund l THE EVENING TELEGRAM, LAE!.AND, FLA, OCT. 22, DID IT ON_IMPULSE|MAKING THE ROSE JAR By GEORGE H, ROSE. Garble always has been a creature of impulse. To this he attributes most of his successes and all of his trou- bles. Whether the troubles overbal anced the successes or not is a deli- cate subject. One of his wild impulses swept over Garble’s soul as he turned to gaze into the face of an excited bellboy. The bellboy had dashed madly through the hotel lobby and around the cashier's glass cage and then had grabbed Gar- ble by the elbow as he stood ccunting out bills, “Well, what's the matter?” asked Garble, as the boy stuttered with ex- citement. Garble and Rockton had been stop- ping for a few days at a Chicago ho- tel. Now they were preparing to de- part. They had dropped their bags over on the other side of the lobby as they came downstairs. So the bellboy stuttered as he grab- bed Garble's arm. “Say,” he gasped, “them your bags over on the other side-a the lobby? By the door?” “They are,” replied Garble. “Why?" “Well,” said the bellboy, “there’s a man trying to steal 'em! You'd better come quick!" It was then that Garble was obsess- ed by his sudden idea. He shut his raouth, plain the matter, and stuffed his change into his pocket with an exag- gerated display of haste. “Where is he?" he growled, as he | ran after the fleeing bellboy. Across the lobby he descried Rock- ton walking away with the two suit- cases, headed for the checkroom, where they were to have been left during the day. Spurred on by authority, the boy | seized Rockton. “Here!" he cried. with them bags?" Rockton turned a mildly surprised face upon his captor and then glanced smilingly at Garble in the rear. He wondered why Garble looked so sour. “Why,"” he said easily, “one of 'em': mine, and the other is his,” lndlcatlmz Garble. “Whachu doin’ The boy turned upon Garble a look which spelled complete under- standing. “How about that for nerve?" he asked. “He's an old hand at it,” said Gar- ble, stepping up and frowning upon Rockton. “Drop ‘em! to see about you!™ Garble pointed to his name card in the tag on his suitcase, “Clever of him,” he commented to the bellboy. “What do you mean to—" Rockton, indignantly. Garble transfixed him with a stony stare, the police for grabbing my grips; that's what I mean,” he said distinetly. Then he coughed. He had to, becauso Rockton's face waz so funny. “Call the house detective!™ commanded he, Amazement, rage and the shock re- duced Rockton to a state of incoher- eney, which was casily sign of guilt, Morcover, the hmm- detective was feeling unusually sus- picious that day. pressive, “You come with me” told Rockton. the detective As Garble, with unholy glee, gazed | complied with all the provisions re upon his miserable friend, he thought of an added touch.

' | Roso petals should be gathered in the early morning and tossed lightly | on a table in a cool, airy place, to dry | until the dew has evaporated. They should then be placed in a stone jar and sprinkled with salt, a little salt over each half inch layer of petals. The contents of the jar can be added to each morning until enough petals have been gathered. They should be allowed to remain in the jar ten days after the last layer of petals has been added, the whole mass being stirred each day. An ounce each of coarsely groundl | cloves and allspice, and as much stick | cinnamon, broken into small pieces, | | should mext be provided. Transfer the rose petals to another jar, sprinkling | in the spaces between layers of pet-! als. Cover the jar tightly and let it stand in a dark place for !hrP(- weeks, at the end of which time the stock is ready for the permanent jnr which may be simple or elaborate, 50 | !long as it has a double cover. Have ready a quarter of an ounce each of coarsely ground mace, all- spice and cloves; half a grated nut- | meg, half an ounce of cinnamon, an ounce of powdered orris root, and a quarter of a pound of dried lavender flowers. All should be mixed. Next fill the rose jar, alternating layers of rose petals from the stock jar with sprinklings of the spices. A few drops cach of rose, geranium, neroli and bit. ter almond oils should be dropped upon the layers as the jar is filled, and an ounce of fine rose extract pour- ed over the whole. A rose jar thus prepared will keep for years. If the jar is left open for half an hour each day the room and even the entire house will be filled with a delightful and refreshing odor, a bewitching and subtle perfume.— New York Times, The oldest UNION MADE Cigar in They have stood the test. town.
