 Of course it made a great deal of com motion in the school and Jennie was sent home for unbecoming behavior-in getting engaged-for she and the dark fellow talked all the rest of the evening and persisted in announcing their engagement to every one.
 Jennie's parents returned with her the following Monday and Jennie whispered to us that she would finish out the school year, and if she and the rajah still felt the same toward each other-and she was cer- tain they woud-they could be married in the spring and go to India.

LITTLE GINGERBREAD MAN

Ella M. White, in Ladies' Home Journal Once when a baker in Fairyviile Was making cakes, as bakers will, He made and put by itself in a pan A dear little, queer little gingerbread man. By-and-by, when the cakes were brown, He opened the oven; when nimbly down Topped the queer little man, and, blinking
 his eyes,
 Called out to the baker, who stared in sur- prise:
 Run, run, fast as you can! Can't catch me, little gingerbread man!' The baker ran; his wife ran too, And puss star od up with a brave "Meow.
 meow"
 Old Rover r',n with a gruff "Bow-wow," Followed by Brindle, the stad old COW. The horse broke out of the barn with A
 neigh,
 But he heard the echo from far away: Run, run, fast as you can! Can't catch me, little gingerbread mani" Man and woman, horse and COW, Dog and cat were after him now; But none could run as fast as he And over his shoulder he called with glee: Run, run. fast as you can! Can't catch me, little gingerbread mani" But wolf crept out of the woods at last, And wolves. he knew, could run so fast: Yet he hurried on. and bravely cried, Just as the wolf bounded up by his side: "Run, run, fast as you can! Can't catch me, little gingerbread man." The great gray wolf took bite, just one. The gingerbread man was one-fourth gone A second bite took him up to the waist. Just half was gone, and twas only taste Still another bite took him up to the throat And now three-fomths was gone, you'll

 Then he swallowed the head as away he
 ran,
 And that was the last of the gingerbread

THE AMERICA's CUP.

What is known as the America cup, for
which the Columbia and Shamrock have
been battling this week, was won in q
general regatta in British waters during
the festival incident to the opening OF the
Crystal Palace in 1851. 1t was presented
by the owner of the winning boat-the
A~merioa-to the New York Yacht Club, to
be held as a perpetual international
trophy; and since that time ten %unsuccess-
full attempts have been made TO win it
back. The first was In 1870, when the
British schooner Cambria was beaten by
the American schooner Magic. The second
was in 1871, when the British Livonia was
beaten by the American Columbia. The
third was in 1876. when the Canadian
Countess Of Dufferin was beaten by the
American Madeline. The fourth marked
q change In the contestants from schooner

ming over the Canadian Atlanta. The
next race was in 1885. when the American
Puritan won over the British Genesta.
The year following, the British Galstes
went down before the American Mayfiower.
In 1887 the American Msyfower outsailed
the Scotch Thistle. In 1898 the British
Valkyrie was beaten by the American
vigilant, and in 1895 the British valkyrie
was beaten by the American Defender.
This year the Union Jack is carried by
the Shamrock, owned by Sir Thomas
Upton, an English merchant Of great
wealth, while the Stars and Stripes will
fly from the peak Of the Columbia. owned
by the New York Yacht Club. The Column
bia is commanded by Captain Charles
Barr, son Of Captain John Barr. who was
sailing master Of the Thistle. An old time
winner. The ColumbiA's crew consists Of
about forty picked American seamen from
Deer Island, Maine. The Shamrock will
be sailed By Captain Archie Hogarth, 9
sootchman Of great repute as Q sailing
master. who has a picked crew Of Clyde

Captain Hogarth absolute authority to d.
rect the yacht In all her operations, and
will personally assume no part in the man
agement. Mr.. O. Oliver Iselin, Of the
New York Yacht Club will act as managing
owner OF the Columbia.

The rsoe between the Columbia and the
Shamrock was declared of because neither
Yacht finished inside Of five and . hall
hours, which lie the limit OF time allowed
bv the rules. At the end Of this time the
committee declared the race of, when the
shamrock was leading by over q quarter OF
a mile. The race was then postponed IN
ill Thursday and the yachts were towed
back to their anchorage.
Though indecisive, this race indicates
that the Shamrock is the best yacht ever
sent across the Atlantic in the hope OF
winning. the 100 guinea cup, which the
America brought back forty-eight years
ago. and which has since been successfully
defended against all chsllengers from En-
gland.
The course extended Is miles before the
wind and back again. The Shamrock was
first across the line by i3 seconds. First
one yacht and then the other lead. The
Columbia reached the stake-bost two min
utes and one second ahead OF the Sham
rock, and both were greeted BY q shous-
and whistles.
A feature Of the race which pleased every
one was the clear field which was
given the racers. The Government fur
nished a fleet Of revenue cutters and tor
pedo boats, which kept steamers, yachts
and tugs al a safe distance, giving the
racers a fair show. Consequently there
was no such disgrsceful crowding as there
was in 1896, on which Lord DunEayen
founded q reasonable protest.
London went wild over the race and II
is estimated that 20. 900 people were gath
cred in one place to hear the result. Not
w~ithstanding the fact that England is on
the verge Of war the race obliterated every
other subject from the public mind.
