Cabs's gew Governor.
Charles E. Magoon, who succeeds
Secretary of War Taft as provisional
governor of Cuba, has until recently
been governor of the Panama canal
some. President Booeeyeit had chosen
Mr. Magoon for the post of vice gov¬
ernor general of the Philippines, but
reconsidered this plan and sent him to
Cuba Instead. Mr. Magoon. according
to reports from Havana, has created
c harmm a. maooon.
a favorable impression among the Cu-
bana, who are much struck with his
ST T t StatUr *.
Governor Magoon is a native of Min-
neseta, was bom on a farm and Is
forty-five years old. He worked his
way through tbe University of Nebras-
ka and practiced law at Lincoln, Neb.,

sular affairs bureau of the war de-

the author of a work entitled "The
Law of Civil Government Under Mill-
tary Occupation."

Bacon ot Georgia.
If Augustus Octavius Bacon, United
States senator from Georgia, were less
than he is he would be in the shadow
of the ponderous classics which his
parents loaded on to him. As It is.
he rises above them and runs beck and
neck with the ablest constitutional
lawyers in the senate. He Is a large
man, tall and straight, very bald, with
laughing eyes and a big mustache. He
“Sawed" the King.
A curious incident occurred recently
outside Charlottenlund castle, where
King Frederick resides In the sum¬
mer. A well dressed gentleman ad¬
dressed a nursemaid who was playing
In the grass with twin children, a boy
and a girl, and asked her to whom
they belonged. “That is a curious
question,” replied the nurse In Eng¬
lish, “for I cannot see why they should
Interest you.” The gentleman answer¬
ed, also In English: “I am sorry that I
have been Inquisitive without Intro¬
ducing myself to you. I am King
Frederick, and my sister Is Queen
Alexandra of England.” The nurse at
once answered his question, and before
leaving the king requested that she
should pay his compliments to the par¬
ents of the English twins.—Washing¬

FOR THE CHILDREN
Story A bo tat Dominos.
With regard to the game of dominos
there Is a very Interesting story con¬
nected with Its origin tt runs thus:
There were two monks who bnd been
committed to the penalty of a long se¬
clusion and were condemned to keep
absolute alienee. To relievo the mo¬
notony they played a game by showing
each other small flat stones marked
with black dots. By n well under¬
stood arrangement the monk whose
hand was used at first informed the’
other player by repeating in ah under¬
tone the first line of the vesper hymn,
“Cantate Domino (Sing unto the Lord).
In time the monks completed the set of
(tones and formulated the rales of the
game, so that by the time they were
free to come out from their punishment
they bad found the game so Interesting
that on teaching It to the other mem¬
bers of the monastery it became a fa¬
vorite and lawful pastime. It soon
became popular all through Italy and
from there extended to the whole
world. The first line of the vesper
hymn which the monks had used as
a signal waa reduced to the word domi¬
no, and the name, aa you know, baa
stuck to the game ever since.

thus translated by historians: "Wesub-
slat in the wild fields like the mouse;
live either on land or water, like tbe
frog; flee like the bird and slay our
pursuers as we flee, for our right
hands are full of arrows for our ene-
mles.” Bight well these fearless rus-
tics made good their allegory. As
Darius pursued them with an army of
■ 7,000,000 men. they still retreated and
.' led him on through forests, swamps
and deserts until his troops perished
by thousands of fatigue, malaria ami
famine. At last be was compelled to
I return to Asia utterly defeated and

A Gueaato* Contest,
A game that requires but simple
preparation and that rarely falls to
amuse is a guessing match. Set out
Ember Day*.
The ember days are set apart In the
calendar of the Romish and tbe Episco¬
pal churches for the purpose of fasting
and prayer and for Imploring the espe¬
cial blessing of the Lord upon the
fruits of the earth and upon the ac¬
tions of his ministers. Wednesday, Fri¬
day and Saturday after the first Sun¬
day In Lent, after Whitsunday, after
the 14th of September and after the
13th of December are ember days. The
observance of ember days was Intro¬
duced Into England by 8t. Augustine.
The ordination of ministers Is generally
done on these days, and special prayers
are offered throughout the church for
them.
Manner*—A Game.
A pastime that affords much amuse¬
ment and which might perhaps be
called manners Is the following: One
leaves tbe room, while tbe others de¬
termine upon some adjective or adverb,
such as “dtgnifled,” “funny,” “curt.”
Upon being recalled she asks each per¬
son in turn any one question she
chooses, the answer l>eing given In the
manner of the adjective—that Is, In a
dignified manner or curtly, as the case
may he, and without using the word
Itself. This is continued until the word
Is guessed. It Is astonishing how the
wittiest may become stupid when thus
unconsciously acting.
No Presidential Notice.
It seems queer when you think about
It that there Is no provision In the con¬
stitution of the United States for noti¬
fying the successful presidential can¬
didate of his election. The two bouses
of congress meet on a day fixed and
open and certify the returns, but there
the matter ends, and the president elect
has to depend on “hearsay” for the re¬
sult. Many persons wonder why some
provision has not been made for giving
him formal notice of his election.—Chi¬
cago News.
