Wright, presiding over a circuit in the northern neck of Virginia, has adopted a novel plan for having vat rlous court house greens beautified with trees, which appears well worthy of adoption elsewhere.

Twenty persona at once volunteered, and will procure lindens, maple and other varieties of shade trees, and during the term of the court this month one day will be set aside for an arbor day. and will be devoted to the planting or the trees Each tree will be properly marked with its species and the name of the planter, and a plot will be made df the ground and location of the trees, and will be made a part of the records of the court.

REVEALING THE FACTS STATEMENT OF THE PRESIDENT ON THE BOWEN MATTER. The Late Secretary Regarded the As! si3tant Secretary as Fully Vindicated by the Investigation. In correspondence between President Roosevelt and Assistant Secretary Loomis of the State Department, Just made public, the President says that Secreary Hay agreed with him on "even the mild censure' of Mr. Loomis in the Taft report on the investigation of charges brought by Mr. Bowen, the former minister to Venezuela, and adds that Secretary Hay very' strongly condemned Mr.

Bowen'a course- The President quotes Mr. Hay as declaring that most of the charges were really against himself (Mr. Hay), and "not against Mr. Loomis at all," and that Mr. Bowen knew that.

The statement made public is as follows: "In order to make known the facts concerning a widely current misapprehension respecting certain views of the late Secretary of State, Mr. Hay, the following correspondence is given to the press: Mr. Loomis' Inquiry. "DEPARTMENT OFTSTATE, "WASHINGTON, September 25, 11:05. "Dear Mr.

President: For some time past there have appeared in various newspapers, including some of the Journals published in New York, statements, more or less direct, to the effect that grave differences of opinion existed between yourself and the late Secretary of State, Air. Hay, concerning both myself and the action to be taken by you upon the findings and report of Secretary Taft in the matter of the charges made against me by Mr. Bowen, a formee United States minister to Venezuela. I will cite a case in point: "Not long ago a responsible New York paper, to which. I am reliably informed upon the best of authority, Mr.

Bowen has been freely offering material for use, printed the following paragraphs: 'Practically the last official act of Mr. Hay's life was to visit the White House for the ot urging the President not to dismiss liovven hhU to dismiss Loomis; but learning tiiat the President uilud was tnade up, he went away with his message Hay thoroughly disliked and distrusted him (myself) and told the President so, but was unable lo produce any effect on the President's "Similar suggestions, more or less circumstantial in form, have so frequently appeared in the public prints that I am constrained to inquire whether, in so far as you are aware, they are supported by any basis of truth? "I do not know what private conversation may have taken place between yourself and Mr. Hay concerning me and my course of conduct while connected with the public service, but 1 do know from Mr. Hay's own lips something of his opinion concerning Mr. Bowen; and I know full well both the unfailing courtesy with which Mr.

Hay received my many suggestions concerning departmental matters, and the personal cordiality which he always manifested toward me. "In December last I went to Mr. Hay's house and told him that I expected to resign from the department within the course the next eight or nine months. He was good enough to say: 'I am extremely sorry to hear this. I have always hoped you wouid remain in your present position as long as 1 remained in the "On other occasions, both before and since that time, Mr.

Hay accorded me seemingly convincing proof of his confidence. "It may interest you to know that at Mr. Hay's request I spent at his home iviiat proved to be practically the last hour of his lite in Washington. Having upon that occasion indicated to me fully and lucidly, as was his wont, what he wished my two colleagues and myself to do in the lines of departmental action and policy to be carried out during his absence, he referred to the then recent Bowen episode with much feeling. Among other things he said that he was disgusted with Bowen beyond expression; that vanity appeared to be a disease with him, and that he was both disloyal and untruthful, and had been treacherous not only to him (Mr.

Hay), but to the country. "In view of this conversation, to which I have adverted in the briefest possible manner, it is difficult for me to believe that there is any truth in either of the foregoing paragraphs which 1 have quoted, or any others which have been printed of similar lmoort. "As I am very soon to retire from the public service, I trust you will not feel that I am unduly or improperly trespassing upon your time with this rather personal matter. Respectfully and sincerely yours. "FRANCIS B.

LOOMIS." The President's Reply. The President replied as follows: "THE WHITE HOUSE, "OYSTER BAY. N. "September 27, 1905. "My Dear Mr.

Loomis: In answer to your letter of September 25th I desire to state, in the broadest and most emphatic manner, that the statement you quote as appearing In certain newspapers, and especially In certain New York newspapers, as to the supposed differences of opinion between myself and the late Secretary of State, Mr. Hay. In respect to the action taken by me regarding Mr. Bowen in connection with the charges against you, is not merely without foundation in fact, but Is the direct reverse of the truth. "You were appointed Assistant Secretary of State upon Mr.

Hay's suggestion and request. He never spoke to me about you save with respect and cordial appreciation of the services you were rendering, and he expressed to me very great regret that you were going to leave the service, and stated that he had hoped that you would stay In as long as he did, and that he would tind it difficult to get any one in your place whom he would like so much. "Mr. Hay expressed himself very freely on the occasion of his last visit to Washington, including the last occasion when I ever saw him alive, as regards the action taken by me on the report of Mr. Taft concerning the charges made by Mr.

Bowen against you. Not only did he express himself about Mr. Bowen to me in t)ie language you quote him as having used at about the same time to you in speaking of Mr. Bowen, but he also condemned Mr. Bowen In much stronger terms than those which you quote him as having used, and dwelt particularly upon the fact of what he called the treachery and disloyalty of Mr.

Bowen to the government and to him (Mr. Hay), repeating again and again that most of the charges Mr. Bowen made were really not charges against you at all. but against himself (Mr. Hay), and that Mr.

Bowen. of course, knew this. "Moreover, Mr. Hay used about Mr. Bowen stronger language of condemnation than I have ever heard him use about any other man who had served under hlnii But this was not all.

Mr. Hay then did what he very rarely, indeed, did. He expressed his strong dissent from the action I had taken In indorsing Mr. Taft's report as regards even the mild censure of you which It contained, stating that he disagreed with both Mr. Taft and myself on this point, and felt that you were in no way whatever censurable, and that the only action that had been called for was the dismissal ol Mr Bowen and the announcement of entire vindication.

however, the nature of things that a lad of twenty, with young life glowing In hts veins and all the wide world before him, should spend his first hours of freedom in mourning for what he had left. Long ere Alleyno was out of sound of the Beaulieu bells he was striding sturdily along, swinging his staff and whistling as merrily as the birds in the thicket. It was an evening to raise a man's heart. The sun shining slantwise through the trees threw delicate traceries across the road, with bars of golden light between. Away in the distance before and behind the green boughs, now turning in places to a coppery redness, shot their broad arches across the track.

The still summer air was heavy with the resinous smell of the great forest. Hero and there a tawny brook prattled out from among the underwood and lost Itself again In the ferns and brambles upon the further side. Save the dull piping of Insects and the sough of the leaves there was silence sweet, restful silence of nature. And yet there was no want of whole wide wood was full of It. Now it was a lithe, furtive stoat which shot across the path upon some fell errand of Its own; then it was a wild cat which squatted upon the outlying branch of an oak and peeped at the traveler with a yellow and dubious eye.

Once It was a wild sow which scuttled out of the bracken, with two young sounders at her heels, and once a lordly red staggard walked daintly out from among the tree trunks and looked around him with the fearless gaze of one who lived under the king's own high protection. -Alleyne gave his staff a merry nourish, however, and the red deer bethought him that the king was far off, so streaked away from whence he came. The youth had now Journeyed considerably beyond the furthest domains of the abbey. He was the more surprised therefore when, on coming round a turn In the. path, he perceived a man clad in the familiar garb of the order and seated in a clump of heather by the roadside.

Alleyne had known every brother well, but this was a face which was new to face which was very red and puffed, working this way and that, as though the man were sore perplexed in his mind. Once he shook both hands furiously In the air, and twice he sprang from his seat and hurried down the road. When he arose, however, Alleyne observed that his robe was much too long and loose for him in every direction, trailing upon the ground and bagging about his ankles, so that even with trussed-up skirts he could make little progress. He ran once, but the long gown clogged him so that he slowed down into a shambling walk, and finally plumped into the heather once more. "Young friend." said he, when Alleyne was abreast of him.

"I fear from thy garb that thou canst know little of the abbey of Bep.ulieu?" "Then you are In error, friend," the clerk answered, "for I have spent all my days within Its walls." "Hast so. Indeed?" cried he. "Then perhaps canst tell me the name of a great loathly lump of a brother wi' freckled face an' a hand like a spade. His eyes were black an' his hair was red an' his voice like the palish bull. I trow that there cannot be two alike in the same cloisters." "That surely can be no other than Brother John," said Alleyne.

"1 trust he has done you no wrong, that you should be so hot against him." "Wrong, quotha!" cried the other. Jumping out of the heather. "Wrong! why he hath stolen every plack of clothing off my back, if that be a wrong, and hath left me here in this sorry frock of white faldlng. so that I have shame to go back to my wife, lest she think that I have donned her old kirtle. Harrow and alas that ever I should have met him!" "But how came this?" asked the yoking clerk, who could scarce keep from laughter at the sight of the hot little man so swathed in the great white cloak.

"It came in this way," he said, sitting down once more: "I was passing this way, hoping to reach Lymington ere nightfall, when I came on this red-headed knave seated even where we are sitting now. 1 uncovered and louted as I passed, thinking that he might be a holy man at his orisons, but he called to me and asked me if I had heard speak of the new indulgence in favor of the Cistercians. 'Not I answered. 'Then the worse for thy said he; and with that he broke into a long tale how that on account of the virtues of the Abbot Berghersh it had been decreed by the pope that whoever should wear the habit of a monk of Beaulieu for as long as he might say the seven psalms of David should be assured of the kingdom of heaven. When I heard this I prayed him on my knees that he would give me the use of his gown, which after many contentions he at last agreed to do on my paying him three marks toward the regilding of the image of Laurence the martyr.

Having stripped his robe, I had no choice hut to let him have the wearing of my good leathern jerkin and hose, for, as he said, it was chilling to the blood and unseemly to the eye to stand frockless whilst I made my orisons. He had scarce got them on, and it was a sore labor, seeing that my Inches will scarce match my had scarce got tljem on, I say, and I not yet at the end of the second psalm, when he bade me do honor to my new dress, and with that set off down the road as fast as feet would carry him. For myself, I could no more run than if I had heen sewn in a sack; so here 1 sit, and here I am like to sit, before I set eyes upon my clothes again." "Nay, friend, take It not so sadly," said Alleyne, clapping the disconsolate one upon the shoulder. "Canst change thy robe for a Jerkin once more at the abbey, unless per- chance you have a friend near at hand." "That have he answered, "and close; but I care not to go nigh him in this plight, for his wife hath a gibing tongue and will spread the tale until I could not show my face In any market from Fordingbridge to Southampton. But If you.

fair sir, out of your kind charity would be pleased to go a matter of two bow-shots out of your way you would do me such a service as 1 could scarce repay." "With all my heart," said Alleyne readily. "Then take this pathway on the left, pray thee, and" then the deer track which passes on the right. You will then see under a great beech tree the hut of a charcoal burner. Give him my name, good sir, tiie name of Peter the fuller of Lymington, and ask him for a change of raiment, that I may pursue my journey without delay. There are reasons why he would be loth to refuse me." Alleyne started off along the path Indicated, and soon found the log hut where the burner dwelt.

He was away In the forest, but his wife, a ruddy, bustling the needful garments and tied them into a bundle. While she busied herself In finding and folding Alleyne Edrlcson stood by the open c'oor looking In at her with much Interest and some distrust, for he had never been so nigh to a woman before. She had round, rt arms, a dress of some sober woollen stuff, and a brass brooch the size of a cheesJCuKe stuck in the front of it. "Peter the fuller!" she kept repeating. "Marry come up! If I were Peter the wife I would teach him better than to jjivc his clothes to the first knave who asks for them.

But he whs always a poor, fond, silly creature, was Peter, though we are jeholden to him for helping to bury our second son Wat, who was a 'prentice to nim at Lymington in the year of the Black Death. But who are you, young sir?" "I am a clerk, on my road from Beauii.iu to Minstead." "Aye. indeed! Hast been brought up at the abbey then. I could read it from thy reddened cheek and downcast eye. Hast learned from the monks, I trow, to fear a woman as thou wouldst a laur house.

Out upon them! that they should dishonor their own mothers by such teaching. A pretty world It would be with all the women out of it." "Heaven forfend that such a thing shauU come to said Alleyne. "Amen and amen! But thou art a prettylad, and the prettier for thy modest ways. It is easy to see from thy cheek that thou hast not spent thy days in the rain and the heat and the wind, as my poor Wat hath been forced to do." "I have indeed seen IRtle of life, good "Wilt find nothing in it to pay for the loss of thy own Here are th? clothes, and Peter can leave them when next he comes this way.

that la better. Now buss me. boy." Alleyne stooped and kissed her, for the kiss wag the common salutation of the age and, as Erasmus long afterward remarked' more used in England than In any other country. Yet It sent the Wood to his temples again, and he wondered, as he turned away, what the Abbot Berghersh would have answered to ho frank an Invitation, lie was still tingling from this new experience when he came out upon the highroad and saw a sight which drove all other thoughts from his mind.

He had. he said, but gone for a while that I might be the freer for my devotions.

The young man listened to this tale Of wrong with all the seriousness that he could maintain; but at the sight of the pursy, raced man and the dignity with which ho bore him, the laughter came so thick upon nim that he had to lean up against a tree trunk. The fuller looked sadly and gravely at him; but finding ttiat he still laughed he bowed with much mock politeness and stalked onward In his borrowed clothes. Alleyne watched him until he was small In the distance, and then, wiping the tears from his eyes, he set off briskly once more upon his journey. (To be continued tomorrow CHARGED WITH LYNCHING.
