upper Michigan peninsula as the dis
coyerer, fabricator and dispenser Of
dish that knocks the Eastern Shore

camp dish is beaver tail soup.
81 was with Col. Park, of Columbus,

a lumber camp boarding snanty
"There were signs of beaver at the
upper end of the lake, and a trapper
succeeded in trapping one of the willy
dam builders.
when the beaver was brought into
samp the camp cook went nearly wild.
And so did the lumberuen when they
heard the news. All because they had
beentrying to trap a beaver for weeks;
not for its fur. but for it's tail, as they
were pining, they said, for beaver tail
soup
"The cook took that broad append

dillo, took from it the underlying bone
and meat, and from it made such a
soup as never came from any other
stock, at the beck Of the most expert
and scientific chef that ever put kef-

perhaps better, on the Eastern Shore.

RABBIT HAD PECULIAR GAIT.
New Member of Shooting Club 4,
Initiated by the old
Timers.

There is sportsman's club on one
of the lakes in Sullivan county and
thither came new member recently
for his first shooting, says the New
York Times. The old members talked
enthusiastically Of the excellent sport
to be had shooting rabbits by moon
light. The new one was very anx-
ious TO try it.
After dinner the old-timers offered
to take him out One volunteered to
stay by the new man so that he
should not be lost, and the two took
their places on log where they
could overlook the edge of a marsh
After awhile there was stir in the
bushes and some gray thing moved
across the open space. The new man
saw it first.
ITS yours said the old-timer
"You saw it, and we make il a rule
here to never interfere with an.
other mans game"
So the new member fired a shot
from his repeating gun. The object
kept on moving. Bang, bang, bang,
roared the gun until its magazine
was empty.
Now there was a rushing of feet
and the other hunters came on the
scene. Their questions were numer-
Gus. Tie new mans answers were in
definite He had seen something ant
had emptied his gun at it. Il had
looked like a rabbit, "but, he added
'it had darned queer gait"
The old members went with the
new man to look for the game. They
were present when he picked up an
old shot bag stuffed with cotton anl
fastened 10 a long string.

NOT SANDWICH ISLANDS.
The Name Formerly Applied 20 the
Wnwniinn Group n Now
seldom Used.

The preamble OF a resolution adopt
ed by the chamber Of commerce the
other day advocated the establishment
of "cable communication between the
United States and the Philippines by
way of the Sandwich islandsn This
designation Of the Hawaiian island
was probably mere force Of old habit
or "slip of the pen" The name Sand
wieh Islands is not properly applied to-
day to our territory of Hawaii. Geog-
raphers and map makers all over the
world have discontinued the use OF the
former name. says the New York Sun.
The hawaiian islands were called
the Sandwich islands by the famous
Capt. Cook when he discovered them,
in honor of British nobleman who
was one of the most conspicuous pro-
moters Of geographical discovery in
his day. AT the time the islands were
named in his honor Lord Sandwich was
lord of The admiralty. II was under
his administration that Capt. Cook en-
riched geography with so many splen-
/ did and important discoveries. The
naming of the islands for Lord Sand
wich was referred to at the time as "a
tribute justly due to the noble person
for the liberal support these voyages
have derived from his power"
For many years the islands were
known as the Sandwich islands When.
however, the natives became some
what advanced in civilization they be-
gan to protest against the abolition Of
the name which they and their fore
fathers had known for many genera
tions. They never used the name
which Capt. Cook gave them They
called their country the kingdom OF
Hawaii. In all their relations with
other countries, in all their official pa
pers, the name Sandwich never ap.
peared. When King Kalakaua visited
this country he was occasionally spok-
en- of as "the king of the Sandwich is
lands" He never failed to correct
most politely, the person who named
him in this manner The only refer
ence to his little kingdom that ever
seemed to distress him was when ii
was called the Sandwich Islands
Many missionaries and merchants
sympathized with the desire of the ma
tives to preserve their ancient name.
For years past it has been regarded
as improper for an explorer to attach
new name to any geographical OBJ
jeet having distinct native name
The British themselves have been great
sticlSlers for the retention of nativ,
names except when some conspicuou.
object was named after members o
the royal family. But the fact that the
retention of native names is generally
advocated helped to bring about tn,
disuse of the name that Capt. Cool
gave to the Hawaiian group.
7 All the best aliases now give the ma
} tive name to the group. The "Inter
national Geography" the latest impor
tant geography published in Grea
Britain, speaks of the Hawaiian is
lands as formerly known as the Sand
wich islands"
OF course the islands can never b,
called the Sandwich islands in oui
country, for this would be contrary t,
the present usage in all lands and t.
our own official designation of the nev
territory of Hawaii"

The commander Of battleship in

mourning band worn by one Of the

that it was something like a quarter
