Tuft, who has been Inaugurated Hist civil governor of the Philippines, and whose duty it will be to give the lltle blown men of the Islnnd the blessing of peace- and free dom. Is a tall, broad-shouldered man of great dignity. Personally, Oovernor Tuft Is one of the most gracious nnd klnd-liearted of men, but several times during his career he has i-hovwi that he has lighting blood In his veins. At Vale he wns the most popular man In his clnsa, and was noted for his skill as a boxei and In other similar foims of athletics. This skill he once to put to good use nfter he graduated and came back to his home In Cincin nati. At the time there was published In Cincinnati a scurllous Sunday paper, made up chlelly of tcandalous attacks on prominent people. One Sunday morning the paper con tained what purported to be a letter from Washington written by a society woman of Cincinnati who was visiting; In the National capital. The letter was such as no woman of discretion and -S .-.V' - .-"" cT modesty would have written, "and, though the nnme of Its alleged author wan not given',, the editor. In 'another article, succeeded: Jn canveylniTthe Im pression that Mia. Taft, mother of the present governor, who happened at tho time to be In Washington, was respon sible for It. The einy the article appeared William H. Taft, nccotupnnlcel by a' inHla -relative, called nt tho ofnee of the paper In question nnd had succeeded In Identi fying the editor who had written- th article which had offended his family. He then proceeded to take off his coat and otherwise clear the deck for action. The editor cnlled for help, but the elder Taft held those who camo to hla as sistance nt bay, while young William nttended to the case of the chief ofi fender. When he had finished there was Just about enough left of tho blackmailing editor to 'he decently taken to the hospital. Doctors worked over tho fiagments for two wneks, nt the end of which time tho vie-tlm of Taffs strong right arm was jr.st able to limp out of his office.
