Y.. Jan. 5.— After a talk in New York with James R. Garfield, ex-secretary of the enterior and a leader of the Republican progressives of Ohio, ex-President Roosevelt re turned to Oyster Bay tonight. Colonel Roosevelt has just oine thing to say. It was that he bad no intention of letting the pubJic know what he thinks about the selection of a Republican candi date for President. He declared bis intention of bottling himself up at Sagamore Hill and refusing to answer any questions. “Does that mean that your at titude will remain a riddle fr&rii now on until the Republican con vention is held ?” He was ask ed. Colonel Roosevelt refused to commit himself on that poiint, merely saying that as far ahead as he could see he would make no public expression of his posi tion. Mr. Garfield’s journey to Nev/ York at this time was regardled as significant because it followed so closely the convention of Oliio Republican progressives, where he was credited with having tjik en a leading part in dissuading the convention from endorsing Senator LaFollette for the pr®si- deney. Neither Colonel Roose velt nor Mr. Garfield would say a word in regard to their confer ence. Nashville, Tenn., Jan. 4. —Wo men of the Southern Presbyter ian church are sending their jew els and other valuable personal belongings to the foreign mission board in |;his city for the purpose of wiping out an indebtness of $100,000 incurred by tho board. Grave danger of the recall of foreign missionaries faced the board and an appeal was made to the loyal women of the church to meet the deficit. From all over the south women have sent jewelry, silver orna ments and money to the board. A committee is disposing of the gifts as rapidly as possible and forwarding the proceeds to mis-^ sionaries whose salaries are over due. As yet the gifts have not been sufficient to meet the deficit and a second appeal has been made to southern women, which has brought many contributions ac companied by letters bf self-sac rifice and retermination to sus tain the church’s sfforts foreign fields.

Are Men Uninterested in tlieir Wives? In the January Woman’s Home Companion, Mary Heaton Verse writes an article entitled “Is the American Man a F'ailure?” Fol lowing is an extract; “There are thousands of A* merican men who are merely in different to their women. They are proud of them, but suprecie-: ly uninterested, and ask of their wives only to be let alone. Their business is their life; it is their life after they are married just as it was before. They are play ing a tremendous game, and in this country a man has got to win or go to the wall. It makes no difference whether a man is maiTied or a bachelor; it is rtot the women of the country v/ho determine if a man must work at the great rate of speed at which they labor—it is the pace of the country itself which demands it. Our men give generously and in dulgently to their women-folks; they like to see that they have ‘everything in the world. ’ as the saying is. It pleases their vanity to see their houses well-appoint ed and their women well-dressed; they like the luxury of it for themselves. What is to be ex pected of young girls whose fa thers have had no influence in their bringing-up, but have mer ely paid the bills,—young girls who have never been taught the uses of money nor any details of any business whatever, and whose whole duty in life is 1x> dress with the extreme perf ec tion of which our women are past niasters, and to keep in good physical condition and talk a- niusingly ? These are the prices of success, success being mea sured in this country, as else where, in terms of marriage a;?id attention.” SALE OF REAL ESTATE.

Marconi rejoiced when, in 1897 he succeeded in sending a wire less message a distance of three miles. By 1907 he had establish ed a regular wireless communica tion across the Atlantic. Since then vessels have been “picked up” at sea from shore stations at j^stances of from 2000 to 4000 |riiles. In November last Mar- cini sent a message from the (Goltano Station, in Italy, to the Glacc Bay Station in Nova Scotia, 4000 miles. The San Francisco operator, a month earlier, con versed for a period of fifteen min utes with the Japanese station on the Island of Hokushu, a dis tance of 6000 miles. Wireless communication, it is expected, will be opened up between Italy and Argentina with the comple tion of the new station at Buenos Ayres. The air line distance be tween these stations will be 7000 miles. The installation of wire less apparatus on ships is being gradually extended. Until re cently few vessels outside of war ships and steamers of the liner class have been so equipped. Now various countries are by legisla tion compelling many smaller passenger-carrying craft to in stall such apparatus. Great Britain is reported to be planning the establishment of a chain of wireless stations to encircle the globe. This is to be a subsidized system under the control of the Post Office Department. Such a chain of stations would give England wireless connection with her colonial possessions in various parts of the world, making her independent of cables, which are liable to be cut in time of war.-r F’rom “The progress of the World,” in the American Review of Reviews for January.
