Queen Lii has seen the end OF all
her ambitions aud making avirtur

been wise she would have accepted
the annuity that was at one time
offered her and left the islands to
take care OF themselves, but she
trusted too implicitly in Claus
Spreckles and Grover. A righteous
disposition Of her case would be to
give her a free passage to some
foreign port and levy on Claus
Spreckles revenues for her support.
There would be real poetic justice
In this thing.

great-grandfather Joshua Draper, and
his great-grandfather, Joshua Draper,
Jr., were soldiers in the revolution. OF
such stock comes the new president of
the University of Illinois. DR.. Draper
was born in Otsego county, n. Y, in
1913, and moved to Albany with his
parents in 1855, where he attended
school and won prize for scholarship
in the Albany academy in 1866. In 1871
he was graduated in the law depart
ment of Union university, and prac-
ticed law in Albany until 1894, when
he was nominated judge of the United
States court of Alabama claims. He
was also active in politics for many
years, serving a term in the New York
legislature.
Dr., or Judge, Draper has ever been
identified with educational work. In
1878 he was elected a member of the
board of education in Albany. In 1889
he was a member of the executive
committee of the state normal school,
In 1886 DR.. Draper was elected by the
Legislature of New York on joint bal
lot as state superintendent of instruc-
ton, was reelected in 1889 and legis-
lated out of Office in April, 1892. He
completely reorganized the educational
system of that state. In 1899 and 1890
Judge Draper was the president Of the
National Association of School Super
intendents DR.. Diapers work in
Cleveland was most satisfactory. He
found the work of public schools Of
Cleveland in bad condition, and he
built them up into model system.
While DR.. Draper has written no
books, in the commonly accepted term,
he has, on the ether hand, written
several This may seem a paradox
until one reflects upon the number Of
his addresses, representing a wonder
full amount of labor and research, and
bound together in book form. When
DR.. Draper left Cleveland to accept the
presidency of the university of Illinois
the press of that city voiced the COM
mon regret at his departure. 1t is felt
that though great the loss for Cleve-
land, still greater the gain for Illinois.

GOOSEFISH VORACITY.
How a Pacific Coast Sea Robber Catches
Gulls and Other DirdS.

Gulls and Other DirdS.
While fishing from a boat anchored
just inside of Ballast point at the
mouth of San Diego bay, an angler was
surprised to see large sea gull, which
was swimming not far from the boat,
suddenly flap its wings, try to rise, and
then disappear beneath the surface,
shrieking Justify as if for help. 1t was
evident that the bird had been drawn
down by big fsh. Later in the after
noon the fisherman caught q goose
fish, and upon opening it found within
its capacious stomach the remains of
the unluclly gull or gull recently
captured elsewhere.
Bird catching is q favorite amuse-
ment of the goosefsh. 1t Is furnished
with mouth especially adapted for
swallowing big morsel. In fact, the
gooscfish is nearly all mouth. This
mouth is provided with effective teeth.
1t is called goosefish from the fact that
they have been known to swallow live
geese.
There is an authentic record of seven
wild ducks having been taken from the
stomach of one of these fish. Fisher
men are annoyed by having the wood.
en- buoys of lobster pots swallowed by
the goosefish. Although the fish fire.
quently comes to the surface to feed,
it prefers living on the bottom of the
ocean. The upper surface of the crea'
ture is notified and tinted in such close
resemblance to stones and gravel and
seaweed that it becomes quite indis-
tinguishable among them. In order to
complete the method of concealment
the whole margin of the fish and the
very edge of the lips and jaws have
loose tags and fringes, which wave and
sway about amid the currents of water
so as to look exactly like the smaller
alge which move around them and
along with them. They are four OF
five feet long and weigh about forty

General Harrison was a passenger on
a crowded North Pennsylvania street
car a few days since. The day was a
disagreeable one, or else Mr.. Harrison
could have been depended upon for
walking. AS the general entered the
car d man rose and politely offered his
seat TO the distinguished passenger
Mr.. Harrison looked at the man for a
second, and no doubt his observing eye
noticed that the man was tired and
that he carried a lunch basket. indi-
eating he was on his way home from d
days work.
Keep your seat. sir" said Mr. Har-
rison, bowling politely. The man took
his seat and Mr.. Harrison took hold Of
a strap.
1t was with a manner of Importance
that the conductor stepped forward to
collect the generals fare. Mr.. Harri-
son handed forth a nickel and the con-
ductor returned to the platform with
it in his hand.
"Pn give you a quarter for that
nickel" said a stranger on the plat
form.
Its yours" replied the conductor,
and then he continued: Mr.. Harrison
is just citizen like the rest of u.s.
"Yes," replied the stranger, as he
pocketed the nickel and gave the con-
ductor the quarter, 'but he has done a
little bit more in this world than the
rest of u.s." and the conductor an
swered:
