WHAT THE KING SAID TO CAP n

WHAT THE KING SAID TO CAP'N
McCREA.
On such an occasion
We need no persuasion
The bottle to pass and our glasses to
clink.
We need no diviner
From North Carolina
To tell lis how long since we had the
last drink
So here's to our hearties,
The visiting parties,
They know they're as welcome as the
flowers in May!
No time we'll be wasting
In ladylike tasting,
But say what the King said to Capn
McCrea.
Refrain
Then, no! for bumper!
A regular thumper!
OF something adapted our thirst to allay!
Come on and Wen load
Big whiskey and soda!
For that's what the King said to Cap'n
McCrea.
Twas true hospitality,
Right from regality,
So when the King made his motion that
day
"I'll go you," says Mack,
eff l never come back!'
And that to the King, from bold Capn
McCrea.
And that is a sample
OF naval example;
Your duty perform when it comes in your
way
So there's nothing to do
But to see the thing through
When we say what the King said to
Capn McCrea.

down the record by almost 10 seconds.
Her fastest mile was in 2.19%. Eight
seasons later that noted gelding Dexter
put the mark at 217A. Within seven
wears Goldsmith Maid trotted in 2.14.
Rarus in 1878 beat those figures by three
quarters of a second, while st. Julien, in
1880, went ahead by lowering the record
TO 2.11A Next came Jay Eye-See with
2.1O in 1884 and Maud S. with 20SA In
1885. Six years passed before the glory
of Maud S. was dimmed by Sunofs 2.O8A

noted horses.
Now the empress of the trotting turf,
Lou Dillon. holds the scepter, and Is like

and some other amazingly swift mares
were well advanced in years when they
moved at their fleetest gait and exhibited
their most impressive proves. 30 may
it be with Lou Dillon!
Nevertheless, great trotter as Lou Dli-
don is Enthusiastically, it is not altogether
certain that if Maud S. and other famous
horses were now in their prime and III
training they might not reach the Two
minnie mark in the conditions when Ia
vored the new queen. Trottlng tracks
are now great deal faster than they
were in the earlier days. Sulkles with
rheumatic tires are extremely light ana
RIM easily. Moreover, Lou Dillon III her
trottinp against time had big wlnd

task far less difficult than it would othef-
wise have been; but, after every alio"-
ance is made, it was grand perform
ance, and a decided step forward IN the
evolution of the trotting horse.

Insurance against Race Suicide.
(F'rom the Iowa Medical Journal)

(From the Iowa Medical Journal)
The American mothers birth insurance
company is a new insurance organization
of which the object is to provide for the
payment of sum of money upon the
birth of living child The benefits
planned are from 800 to $500, depending
upon the amount of premium paid by the
mother. 1t is organized under the in
surance laws of Massachusetts, and is to
maintain a reserve fund.
The question arises, Will this sort OF IN
surance make am difference IN the race
suicide" so much deplored by our Presi-
dent and other statesmen? The tendency
of the day in that class of people who arc
supposed to be in sufficient financial con-
dition to carry insurance of this kind is
not to have children. Now, will they look
upon the insurance as a good thing and
set aside their prejudice against offspring
or will this sort OF an insurance company
have to depend upon the laboring class
who, as a usual thing, cannot afford to
carry any great amount of insurance?

off the victory of Cresceus in 1901, and
Lou Dillon is not yet in her full prime.

The Price Of a Kiss.

An interesting question j. involved 81
the case OF Miss Frances Pc lit, or IRA
toga, N. Y, who claims 800 daplges
in breach of promise suit agaI James
P. Tittemore, of the town of G. ay, in
the same State
In the trial of the case Miss Icttit
produced evidence showic> that TIT
more had kissed her or thousand, tw'
hundred and thrty-six mes Q,236) during
courtship of several years.
We are not informed as to the method
by which Miss rvttit preserved so exact
a record of the number of kisses. 1t
is possible that she kept day-book and
journal and posted her account every
night. Or, she may have id an osculo-
meter.
After heated argument by opposing
counsel, the jury brought in a verdict in
favor of the plaintiff and judgment was
entered against Tittemore for $4,000 dam
ages. The sheriff was about to levy on
Tittemore's farm, we are informed, when
the district court judge declared the
farmer a bankrupt and stayed the pro-
ceedlngs.
The result of this case seems to es-
tabsh a legal precedent as to the price
of a kiss The jury awarded Miss Petit
$4,000 damages for / ,236 kisses. This was
at the rate Of approximately $242 per
kiss.
The legal price of kiss, therefore, APP
pears to be $2.42.
1t is possible, however, that the jury
reckoned the kisses at wholesale. which
would make the price of single kiss, or
even a dozen, considerably higher This,
of course, is a matter for future judicial
opinion; but we are safe in saying that
legal precedent has now established the
pecuniary value of kisses at about $3.50
each in large lots.

may henceforth be given Well-merlted
rest. for if reports are true, as they Ire
uuently are not, very good up-to-dale
substitution has been found for the Car

the information that at the dinner at

McCrea was sat ting talking to some or

arose. Don't discommode yourselves,
gentlemen, said he. MIR. McCrea, he
continued, putting his hand on that 9th
GERS shoulder don't you think it's about
time for whiskey and soda?'
AS matter of fact this narrative Is

that officers judgment to determine
whether it was an opportune time to in

JEFFRIts IS CHAMPION
Much Interest Manifested in This
Country, Fight Pulled off
at San Francisco.

In Canon City as elsewhe through
out the country great interest was
manifested in the result OF the Corbett-
Jeffries fight. which was pulled off at
Mechanics hal! in San Francisco. Csli-
fornia, last Friday night Although
the result was not greatly different
from what had been anticipated 1t was
not believed that Corbett was so gr- at
ly outclassed by his opponent as the
score by rounds indicated him to have
been. While there WAS no even money
bet here that Corhett would win there
were number of wagers made that he
would stand up before Jeffries more
than ten rounds, but the outcome
shows their Judgment in this respect
to have been unreliable
Viewing the matter from this dis
tnnce it looks like Jeffties could have
rendered Corbett hors de combat in
about the fifth or Sixth round h-d he
been so disposed, and allowing him to
remain in the fight the tenth round
was a concession to the latter's friends
which need not have been given under
the rules which governed the mill.
The fight was witnessed by IL 1000 peo-
pie and the receipts were $4,000, of
which Jefries received s2S,35O and
Corbett t8.45o.
