President Roosevelt Is More Success

Look ing for Bruin in Miss iSsippi.

President Roosevelt had great sue
cess in hunting bear at the white
house Christmas morning. He start
ed on the trail for the library, where
the Christmas presents were assem-
bled, and there he found three min
iature bears waiting for him. They
were of different varieties of the
bruin tribe in the jungle of Christ
mas remembrances. One came from
the sunny south, one from the north
west and one from New York--a
black. brown and a grizzly. All
were addressed to the president, and
he enjoyed the humor of the presen-
tations. These toys in size and ap-
pearance were excellent limitations OF
the living animals. The one from
the northwest was a mechanical or
dancing bear, and his performances
created much merriment among the
members of the household. The pres
ident displayed his dancing bear to
friends who called at the white
house.

SEES DANGER IN FAST AUTO.
The Medical Press OF London Dis
cusse~ 100-MiIe-sn-Hour
COLLATION..

The Medical Press of London fore
sees a new and awful danger from
the promised automobile, which nav
succeed the ordinary train, carrying
passengers at the rate of 100 miles an
hour. Each automobile must carry
large supply of highly intammable
liquid, which at present railways will
carry only under the most stringent
restrictions. What will happen when
the automobile sustains a collision?
I'm instantaneous, gigantic conilagra-
ton involving the whole of the wreck.
But there is one consolation.
Tbs Usage of the petroleum
vapor into the lungs" says the Press,
would probably determine inscnsi-
bility forthwith. This consolation re-
minds one of the statement made by
the theatrical manager who ,ried to
soothe an audience, panic-stricken at
a fire, by assuring them that there
was n reservoir on the roof that
would drown them all at once"

"Field day" is to be an established
institution at all army posts in the

ago a monthly field day" was inau-
gurated at Fort Sheridan and the re-
suits have been so satisfactory that
the war department is satisfied that
its policy of encouraging athletic
sports in the army is a wise one. The
other day Maj. Gen. Bates, command
ing the department of the lakes, is
sued an order directing that one day
in each month, to be known as field
day." be devoted to athletic games
and exercises by the enlisted men
at each post in his department.
The programme will include all
kinds of athletic sports; also the
construction of hasty intrenchmsnts,
construction of emergency
bridges, and, at the discretion of the
officers in charge, boxing and wrest-
ling. Whenever practical the sports
win be accompanied with music, and
every effort will be made to give the
day the air of holiday devoted to
wholesome recreation"

UNIQUE PAPER SUSPENDS.

Ia Abandoned.

The Gypsum (kan.) Chronicle, one
of the most unique papers ever pub
lished, has suspended publication at
Gypsum City, Saline county. Tie
Chronicle was first issued August IT,,
1900. The paper was four pages,
7xll, entirely printed by hand with
u lead pencil by Allen l.. Swisher, a
l2-year-old boy. Several copies were
issued weekly, and as the lad had no
means of making duplicate copies of
the first paper, each one had to be as
near alike the first AS possible.
For over two years the lad edited
and published his little newspaper
every week. All the reading matter
was printed, and on several occasions
there was colored cartoons on the
first page. At the time of the cleo
ton of j. r. Burton to the United
States senate the paper appeared with
a full page picture of the senator,
drawn with. colored pencils
The total number of copies of the
Chronicle printed is about LOO, or an
average of nine week, for 1913
weeks. The paper was on w. j.

founded.

the paper was increased from 81 to

here. He writes:
"The leaders of the bands on enter

the occupants good naturally, say
ing: Poor brethren, we must kill

Monstrous things were not done
until robbers began to participate,
and when they, with the Christ zeal

The state of terror OF the Jews at
Kishineff, the letter adds, continues.
A fresh massacre is expected there
and the Jews OF Odessa and OF all the
large towns OF Bessarabia are living
in hourly dread ofdeath, The whole
Province seems to be in a state o,
fanatical fury against the Jews.
The writer OF the letter says: 1.-THE
excitement is intensified through
proclamations distributed in the
streets and the tone OF the bitterly
antiSemitic newspapers. The Rus

the peace: It's the ears will that

The situation has become all the
worse since the important Russian
papers have been prevented by the
censorship from freely expressing
their opinions. Their behavior, al
most without exception, has been
excellent. Unless tine government
adopts more energetic policy, the
events at kishineff will undoubtedly
be repeated in other towns. As indi
eating the complete disapproval Of
the best classes, respectable Rus.
sian lawyers are assisting the suffer

EARTH SHAPE OF PEAR.
English MAthemas Ician Offers New
Theory OF the Worlds Con-

J. II. Jeans, one of the great
est mathematicians that Cambridge
university has produced in recent
years, contributed a paper al the
last meeting of the Royal soci-
ETY., in which he made novel sug-
gestions in regard to the figure of the
earth. He said there was probably
time when the rigidity Of the planet
was SO small that the eonfgurationwas
pear-shaped. The transition from q
pear-shaped jelly to steel-hke spher-
old had taken place through series
of ruptures. Nevertheless traces Of
the pear-shaped configuration were
still discernible. England, he said, is
the center of a hemisphere which is
practically all land. This hemisphere
represents the blunt end of pear. 1t
is along the boundary of this henri
sphere that earthquake attempts at
the readjustment of form are and
were most frequent.
Tracing circle about the globe"
he said, lat a greater distance from
England as the center, we pass over a
region of the very deep seas of the Pa
cific, southern Atlantic and Indian
oceans. Along this circle there is q
waist of pear. Finally, at the antip-
odes Of England, Australia is the re-
mains of the pear stalk"

HOGS GET FINE FEED.
ium and ships to His sHIne Herd
in Central IIIInoIz.

From the Chicago Auditorium hotel
luncheons and banquets there is .
great waste of bread, amounting to
20 barrels every two or three days.
The waste bread supply has been
bought and is being fed to 700 pigs
on Warren Springer's farm down in
central Illinois.
Some time ago Mr.. Springer's farm
er told him that the pigs were grunt-
Ing q great deal over the inferior quail
ity of their food. Mr.. Springer de-
cided q change of menu was needed
something more palatable for the dis
gruntled 700. While he was reading
the breakfast food advertisements he
saw the statement that the Auditorium
had waste bread for sale by the barrel
Just the thing" declared Mr..
Springer, and he hurried to the hotel.
To the clerk he said confidentially:
II want those 20 barrels of bread"
The clerk knew nothing of the adver-
usement and regarded Mr. Springer
with wonder. Fortunately, the man
ager appeared and took Mr.. Springer
to the kitchen, where the deal was
soon completed.
There is luncheon party on now"
said the manager, land can make up
another barrel out of what is left"
Mr.. Springer told him to send it along.
That evening Mrs. Springer told her
husband of q luncheon she had given.
"WhereP" he demanded. "Why, at
the Auditorium" said his wife.
WELL" said Mr.. Springer, with a
laugh. II hope there was some left
over.T bought it for my pigs"
The pigs are thriving on the rich
diet which Mr.. Springer declares q
great success.
