The old school of peurnpathologists maintained that every case of suicide was a case of Insanity, but that the ory has been abandoned because of the preponderance of testimony against itt Acute mania sometimes chuses suicide, but in the large ma ority of cases sheer laziness and pol treonery furnish the plain evidence of motive.

Some Idea of the enormous quantity of rubber used every year can be ob tained from the following necessarily rough estimate of French statistical experts. They calculate that the pres ent total annusl production of rubber i= not less than 57,600,000 pounds. Of this total about 55 per cent comes from South America and Africa, and considerably over 45 per cent of the finished product is consumed In the United States Germany is the seo A Courtship of 25 Years.

Oyster Day, L. 1—President Roose velt is settled down in his country home ou “the hill” for the first actual rest he has enjoyed in Ove years It is to continue for three mouths A high stone wall has been erected between the Loug Island raliroad sta tion and Sagamore Hill and secret service men, under direction of Sec retary Loeb, hold the key to the only gate. All sorts of gentlemen, crank or crankiess, great or little, find it hard to get past. Artists and camera men for newspapers have to run lor thelr lives The president's day begins early. He may be scen on the veranda of his home at 5:30 a m. almost any day, breathing the soft, cool air from the sound. After a brisk turn about the grounds a chapter from a library book will engage him until the chil dren begin flocking from their beds, eager for breakfast and a day of rol licking fun. As a rule the first meal is served to the president's family to gether. A game of tennis usually follows’ the morniug meal Usually in the forenoon the family take to their horses. This seasov the president is riding two new mounts, Audrey, a black mare, and Roswell, a bay hunter. They were purchased in Virginia. Rusty, a bay jumper, that has been out of service for two sea sons, because of a complication of allments is fit again Mrs. Roosevelt is also riding a new mare, named Molly, and from Vir gina Mr. and Mrs. Roosevelt ride throught the shaded roads of the country, some times accompanied by Theodore, Jr, who Is delighted with his new mount Gray Dawn, a western cayuse of ex- cellent action and spirit, and the most showy animal in the Roosevelt stable Algonquin, the sturdy little calico pony which was Archie's boon com panion for several seasons, has now EXECUTIVE OFFICE OVER CORNER GROCERY AT OYSTER BAY. Archie pony named descended to young Quentin. bas a new and larger Betsy. It is one of the principal sights of the town to witness the charge of the Roosevelt youngsters, in miniature rough rider costumes, through the quiet streets of the town on their steeds. Quentin rides like his father, giving his mount full rein and scat tering the sand dust as he flies Secretary Loeb arrives at Sagamore Hill from the “executive office” down town at 11 o'clock with the president's mall and the New York morning pa- pers. If there are no visitors to luncheon the president rattles through his cor respondence in less than two hours, and is free for recreation. His farm runs to the bay, the swimming beach being about 15 minutes’ walk from the house. The bot July sun served to put a red tan upon the countenance of the chief executive in less than a week. Two bours of the afternoon are spent in reading and writing at the broad library table or on the veranda In the rear of the house the presi dent is helping his farm hands to har vest a bumper crop of oats. The hay bas not been taken in. He expects to take in from three to three and a half tons of timothy from his hillside meadow. Mrs. Roosevelt is busy in the after noon with her large flower garden, and she has called upon the president frequently to assist her in the heavy work. The evening meal brings the family together again. The president fre quently reads or talks to the boys in the evening. The mosquitoes are coming in droves this year, and folks keep indoors after the sun goes down, well protected by netting. Nine o'clock at night finds Saga. more Hill slumbering.

TAXPAYERS TURNDOWN PAVING PROPOSITION Majority Decide That Pavement Should Not Be Laid—Voted Four to One in Favor of Brick Waverly—Three hundred fifty- two eflective ballots were cast yes- terday, either for or against the proposition to raise $8000 on bonds for the purpose of paving Chemung and Ithaca streets, and the proposition was defeated by a majority of 88 votes, it standing 220 for, to 132 against. There were ten blank ballots and ten bal lots were spoiled, making a total of 372 ballots cast. There were 50 women who turned out and regis- tered their consent or dissent. A number of citizens got out and worked against the measure, but who favored it seemed to very quiet, and limited their efforts to casting their ballots. The objection that was most ef- fectively urged was that there was no sewer on these streets, and that it would be only a matter of a short time betore a sewer would have to be laid and that would ne- cessitate the tearing up of the pavement, which would damage it, and would involve added expense in putting in the sewer. Many who voted against the pro- position yesterday stated that they favored the pavement, and thought that it was a much needed improve- ment, but that they would not vote for it until these streets had been sewered. Those favoring the pavement are greatly disappointed, and consider that a much needed improvement has been indefinitely delayed. The votes stood four to one in favor of brick as against macadam.
