KISSED THE COOK.

James Courtney Challis in What to Eat" I kissed the cook-ah, me, she was divine! Cheeks peachy, dark brown eyes, lips red as wine;
 Long apron with a bow,
 A cap as white as snow By far too tempting; so kissed the cook. I kissed the cook, this angel from the skies, And yet, did not take her by surprise,
 Twas mean, I will allow,
 But if you'll take the VOW To keep it, I'll tell you how l kissed the cook. I kissed the coolS-poor, helpless little lass, The chance so good I could not let it pass
 Her hands were in the dough;
 She dare not spoil, you know, My Sunday suit, and so I kissed the cook. kissed the cook. I might have been more strong, But then I guess 1t wasn't very wrong.
 For just tween you and me,
 The cooks my wife, is she, So I'd right, you see, to kiss the cook

The Queen of Spain's Busy Life

From the London Figaro
 Spain is essentially lazy country. In all ranks the people rise late and turn night into day: but the queen regent-a tall graceful woman, looking younger than her years-sets them an excellent example Up at T. her first care is given to her children, and hy o'clock she is already at work with her secretary. It is only after lunch, toward 2 o'clock, that she allows herself an hour of wel-earned rest. And some idea of Queen Christmas thoroughness may be gained by the fact that sine no longer speaks German-her native tongue save to those few Teutons who find their way to Madrid.
 When she first came bride from Vienna to Spain she had mastered but imperfect ly the language. Now she talks Spanish correctly, and has, alone and unaided, &C., quired a real knowledge of the splendid literature of her adopted country. When speaking of her son she seldom refers to him as "his majesty or "the king" usual ly it is, 'my boy" or "my little one" She makes no outward difference between the three children, but it is easy to see that her heart is specially bound up in Alfonso XIII.

Guckenberger, which Is assurance for the highest order of cho- rad work Birmingham remembers with pride the success scored by Professor Guck- enberger with the Messiah" oratorio some two months ago. is f-ollally. if not more beautiful than that of the Messiah"
 Nhe 'Maccabens'' was composed ad bhe instance of Frederic, Prince of Wales (father of George I'D to celebrate the vic tory of his brother, the Duke of Cumber- land at the battle of Colloden on the 16th of April 1746, over the unfortunate Charies F1dward. Handel comm enced the work on the 9th of July, 1746, and finished It on the 11th of August.
 The pilot of the oratlo IS based od' tue historic accounts of the heroic deeds per- formed by Judas Macabeus, the great Jew ish leader and delverer. as chronicled In the apocryphal books, called f1rst ana Second Maccaibeus, and in Josephus An tiuuities of the Jews" About the year l69 B. C., the Syrian king, Antiocnus flnpn- anes. determined to make of Judea a thor os,ehly Syrian province. In order to accom- olisb this he proceeded to force the Jews to abandon their religion and adopt SyIaah worshHp Every Jewish observance was 'h- terdicted the violation of the Sahbth was enforced with the threats of severest pen altiee in case of disobedience
 Throughout Judea the Jews were forced either to apostasze or die. Many, 1n- deed, died rather than forsake their re- ligion. History has prescribed the names and heroic deeds of many martyrs or Antiochus wrath. It was amidst most horrible prescription that Matthias with his five sons-of whom Judas, surnamed Maccabee and Simon, are the most fam ous-arose and commenced the war or ih- dependence.
 After his fathers early death, Judas Maccabaeus, the bravest of his hero broth CTS. became the leader, and with wonder f,1 courage and marvellous generalship did he defend the sacred cause of free dom. With a small army he repeatedly defeated vast numbers of trained sol- diers led by the best Syrian generals.
 After twenty-five years or continued warfare, the Syrians were forced to recog- nize Judea's independence.
 Among the choral numbers to be rem dered on the 17th will be the familiar sSee, the Conquering Hero Comes," which chorus was called Englands national song previous to "God Save the Queens" composition.
 The oratorio was first produced on the 1st of April, TAT, at Covent Garden thea ter, London, and again on the 9th, 10th, 18th and 18th of the same month with inn mediate great success.

STOCKINGS FOR THE ARMS.
Chicago Girls in Evening Dress Think They
 Have Solved Problem.

From the Chicago Inter Ocean.
 What do you think some girls are doing now? Wearing stockings on their arms as we'll as on their legs! How and when and where? Just go into woman's dressing room at a party or dance, and everybody who has so much as half an eye can see. Not every woman can afford to have a long, warm evening wrap with fur-lined sleeves to wear with low-necked, short sleeved gowns, so those who can't content themselves with pulling heavy, warm stockings, minus their feet, on over their bare arms Escorts little dream of the display of h0isery under coats that have been made this winter.
 "This wearing of stockings to protect bare arms is fne," says @ girl who has been trying it all winter. I've never been so popular in my life as have this season, and l lay it all to the stockings Wouldn't the men laugh if they knew that? You see 1t was this way: Last winter and the winter before I never dreamed that I could go out in full dress without a car riage. One night last fall a man called to take me to reception without a sign of a carriage. Mother was going to chap eron me, and it was positively funny, for we both had on our most sparse evening gowns. We held consultation and fig ured that we would hurt this mans feel
  decided to make the best of it.
 "The idea came to me to cover our arms with stockings and our necks with knit woolen shawls and to slip dark skirts over our light gowns. We did so and went to ' the reception in the cable car We were as warm as bugs in @ rug and had real jolly time, and the man, who is strug- gling author, was S10 in. Imagine my amazement when we got in the dressing room, which was crowded with women, and found half of lem with stockings on their arms. They'd come in the cars, too. That settled it with me. I saw that 1t was possible to go out in full dress comfortably without carriage and made my mother tell my friends when they asked me out that positively refused to go in car riage.
 ssThe result? Oh I've had more invita- tions to go out this winter, more escorts and more steady beaux, as our second girl puts it, than any girl in my set. always knew stockings were 'magerfuP things with men, to use Sentimental Tommy's word, but bless me if I realized their power fully until I took to wearing them on my arms"

LAMAR COUNTY
 BANDITS INDICTED Fixed for Murder in the First
 Degree. KILLED ANDREW HAYDEN Thought That Remainder of Band Have Been Indicted and More Arrests Expected
 Talk of Uprising to Llberate
 Those Arrested.
Special to The Age-Herald.


 Kennedy Ala, March 5-The sequel to the arrest of the Lamar county whitecap- pers came today. when it was made public that the four held in Jail had been in- dicted for murder in the first degree. They are:
 A. w. Roland.
 w. w. Mccullough.
 Vester, Pate.
 Coote Long.
 These with others, it is believed, mur- dered the negro Andrew Hayden, thinking he was another negro, whom they were seeking. They are also believed to have been connected with various other deeds of lawlessness narraetd in The Age Her aid of last Sunday morning. It is thought that they are the ringleaders, but that the notorious band comprises many more members goes without doubt. The case has consumed the entire time of the grand jury, which is in session at the county site, Vernon, since it convened last Monday morning. It is not unlikely that other indictments have been found and more arrests of a i, sensational nature are momentarily ex- pected Every law-abiding citizen well comes the downfall of the whitecappers and Gov Johnston and Detective Bodeker are receiving the praise for the work. The detective got up the evidence and has been at Vernon all the week keeping wit nesses together, who were absolutely afraid to return to Lamar county without the protection of the law.
 It is whispered about here tonight that the remainder of the band have threatened to organize march on the county jail at Vernon and liberaet their leaders. All have sworn vengeance on Detective Bo- deler and everyone connected with the case
 The arrest of a prominent merchant of this place who was considered the packer of Roland is not unlikely. Greatest excite ment prevails, although the citizens are too frightened to indulge in unnecessary talk.
