Some years ago an American sailor
named Carl Benjamin was wrecked
on one of the largest of the Caroline
Islands. He decid d to make the
island his home, as there was no work
to do and plenty to eat. The natives,
who are very good natured, took kind
ly to him, and have made him their
King. He is a somewhat scholarly
man, and is diligently teaching the
natives English and the rudiments of
civilized life. He has twenty wives
and fifty children. Nothing, he says,

How He Got There.

Lyman E. Knapp of Middlebury,
VT, who was to-day nominated by the
President to be Governor of Alaska,
owes his appointment to the fact that
he is a friend of ex-Gov. Proctor, the
Secretary of War. Nominally he
was the choice of the Vermont dele.
cation, and while it is understood
that he is perfectly satisfactory to
them, it is fact, nevertheless, thai
| if the Secretary of War had moi
championed him he would not have
stood much chance of receiving The
appointment.
Secretary of the. Interior, Noble
who is the immediate superior of ths
Governor of Alaska, knew nothing
ofthe appointment untilit was brough,
/ up in Cabinet meeting to-day; and
while some 20 or so candidates fol
the place have had their papers on file
since the 4th of March, there is moth
ing in the Interior Department tt
show that Mr.. Knapp had aspirations
in that direction.
His friend, Secretary Proctor, sale
tonight to the Globe correspondent
that Mr.. Knapp was Of vigorou:

will make a model Governor o

he was quickly seized by assistants in

while, but soon recovered and took
the train for Cincinnati. He escaped
without breaking the skin, and to-day
saws he feels as well as ever. This

County Supervisor Of Schools.

Yielding to the earnest solicitation
of many friends, w. l.. Gibson of
this town has consented to be can
didate for County Supervisor of
schools. He being worthy towns
man, as a matter of course, it would
be very pleasing to our citizens to
have this honor conferred upon him.
But aside from this there are substan-
tial reasons why his selection for the
position would be gratifying to friends
of education throughout the county.
By force of education, life and habits
he is thoroughly equipped for the
place, and possesses an executive a.
bility, that has been exemplyfied
through ten Or twelve years as Select
man and fifteen years as Superintend-
ent of schools, that would add i'm
mensly to his ability to successfully
fill the post. Besides he is gentle
man (and nothing better can be said
of any NAM, an upright, conscien-
tious citizen who takes an intelligent
interest in all that pertains to the well
fare of his town, county and State.
We believe no better selection could
be made or one more likely to give
general satisfaction.
