After breakfast Franklin paused for
a moment at the hotel office, almost as
large and empty as the dining room.

passed him by, each seeming to nave
some business of his own. The clerk
at the hotel asked him IL he wanted

Assuming TIE Triple Crown.

Rome, Dec. 90. At the Vatican the
statement of the Tribuna that Cardinal
Gotti, project of the propaganda, had
handed Pope Plus S0,000,000 in bank
notes, said to have been confided to
Cardinal Gotti by the late Pope Leo
with instructions to turn the money
over to his successor after period OF
four months had elapsed, was denied
On the same authority the statement OF
the Tribuna that an electrician found

The Associated Press is authorized to
announce that the truth is that the
present pope, Immediately after his as
cension to the throne, received SO, 4OO,-
600, as indicated in the part of the late
pope's will which was not made public.
The delivery of the money was effected
by Cardinals Gotti, Rampolli and Gre

looking about him at the strange, new
country, in which he felt the proprie-
torship of early discovery.
As Franklin was walking on, busy
with the impressions of his new world,
he became conscious of rapid hoor-
beats coming up behind him, and turn
ed to see a horseman careering across
the open in his direction, with no ap-
parent object in view beyond that OF
making all the noise possible to be
made by the freckled-faced cowboy
who had been up all night but still
had some vitality which needed vent.
eee-yow-heeeeee!" yelled the
cowboy, both squirting and refining his
supple, cringing steed. "Eeeeeee-yip-
yeeeee!" Thus vociferating, he rode
straight at the footman. with appar-
emily the deliberate wish to ride him
down. Finding that he failed to create
a panic, he pulled up with the pony's
nose almost over Franklin's shoulder.
"Hello, stranger" cried the rider,
cheerfully; where are you goin', this
bright an happy mornin'?"
Franklin made no immediate reply,
and the cowboy resumed.
"Have chaw?" he said affably. and
looked surprised when Franklin thank
ed him but did not accept.
"Say," said the cowboy, after a
time-"say, I reckon I kin lick YOU
"Do you think so?" said Franklin
calmly, pulling up his shoulders and
feeling no alarm.
"Shorely l do" said the other; Il
reckon l kin lick you. er beat you
shootin', er throw you down."
Friend" said Franklin, get down
off that horse, and I'll give you little
wrestle to see who rides. What's your
name. anyhow"
"Whoa!" said the other. Names
Curly" He was on the ground as he
said this last, and throwing the bride
over the horses neck. The animal
stood as though anchored. Curly cast
his hat upon the ground and trod Upon
it in a sort of ecstasy of combat. He
rushed at Franklin without argument
or generalization.

MAKING A PUMPKIN PIE.
Here's a Description of How Grand
mother Did 1t.

utOtbSt D'S 49,
Does any one remember the pump
kin pies which grandmother used to
make? Grandmother opened the
pumpkin and took out its works ana
peeled and sliced it and put 1t in the
kettle. where 1t was boiled until 1t was
soft and mushy, but not too mushy.
Later she pressed the result through
the holes In a colander, and when she
had dished out portion for immediate
use. she was ready to begin the
construction Of the pumpkin pie. A
big and square iron bake sheet was
lined with flour crust, which covered
the bottom of the pan and reached up
along the four edges until the pastry
could look over the rim. Then she
nut an egg and a sufficient amount OF
sweet milk in among the pumpkin ana
added a whole lot Of black molasses
and a pinch of salt, and big lot OF
ginger, and a pinch and hall OF
grated nutmeg to the concoction. and
when these had been stirred in among
the milk and the pumpkin, the mass
OF ingredients was poured into the
bake pan and the pan was closed up
inside Of the oven to be cremated.
while the children waited outside with
the water oozing from our mouths
until the wonderful experiment was
completed.
And nobody except some few OF us
lucky old chaps ever tasted anything
like one of those pumpkin pies. 1t
was deep and spicy and sweet and
satisfying. 1t was more like a pump
KIN pudding. so thick 1t was. and
wholly like unto ambrosia STEPPED In
nectar, so toothsome it was: and
when we think Of those Great squares
Of pumpkin pie which found their way
down our ravenous gullet. we wonder
how Il is that modern boys manage
to live at all without pumpkin pie.>r

A NORMAL MAGAZINE.

For the past several years there has been much said about the establish 7nent of some kind of magazine for the benefit of and in the interest of 1he Normal school-a magazine similar 10 such as many of the colleges and normals of other states have published.
 Both the faculty and the student body have frequently expressed their desire for a normal school magazine, but as 1t requires considerable backing to start the enterprise there was always some hesitancy about accepting the re- sponsibility. There Is now a definite shape to the proposition of starting the publication. A large annual magazine will be published early this spring, and upon it's successful issuance a perma- nent monthly CT quarterly magazine is hoped to be established by the student body, aided by the members of the faculty.
 Work will be started very soon on the big magazine that is to be gotten out early in April. It will be 9x12 inch, 30 to 40 page magazine. The paper will be the heavy half tone book.
 c. M. Paddock, president class 'OS ana Chas. A. Stauffer. secretary class '01, will assume the responsibility of the costs and will manage the publi- cation. They will be assisted by the members of the school They say it will be one of the prettiest illustrated magazines every put out by any school.

It was recently noted that New Brunswick has few divorces. and the reason is not far to seek. In ArOOstOo1 county ffty-seveu divorces were granted in 1909, and a large percentage Of these were of parties married n New Brunswick. The law requires that parties married in New Bruns- wick. not having a residence in this state. must reside here in good faith one year prior to the commencement or proceedings before they can procure a divorce.
