Game of Initials.

This entertaining game is intended for
the older boys and girls. The first thing
TO do is to write a certain number of ques-
lions, all of which are to be read to the
players, and answered by them in writing.
Only one copy of the questions is neces-
sary, and that is kept by the one who is to
act as leader, say, the host or hostess Of
the evening.
Each player is furnished with a sheet of
paper and a pencil the paper having on 1t
as many numbers as there are questions.
If. for example, six questions have been
prepared, the numbers from one to six
should be written down the sheet of paper.
and the players are to write the answers
opposite to those numbers, in order.
The special point in this game, however,
is that each player must write his answers
only by words beginning with the initials
of his name. If there are six players,
therefore, there will be six different an
swers to each question, and the effect
when they are read aloud, will be very
amusing.
AS an illustration, here are six questions,
all of which are supposed to be answered
by player whose initials are r G. w:
l. What is your favorite drink7 Really
Good Water
q w mat 10 your ldNOIlte udllCe9 INdtlHHB
Good Waltz.
g. What is your pet vice? Robbing Gro
Gerry Wagons.
A. What is your greatest virtue? Re-
forming Great Wrongs.
g. What do you most dread in the future i?
Raising Gray Whiskers
6. What do you most hope for in the
future? Real Gold Wings.
Remember that each plaVer must Use the
initials of his own name in answering, Just
as the letters h. c. w. are used here and
the result may be imagined. A certain
time should be allowed for writing the
answers, and, IL desired, a vote may be
taken to decide which set is the best, and
a prize of some kind awarded accordingly.

Jacks New Year Giant.

The holidays were ended The little
candles on the Christmas tree had burned
out. The visit to grandma's was over and
the New Year party broken up. Even the
story books had been read through. and
now, on this bright, cold second of January,
there was nothing for Jack to do but to
collect his scattered books, put them in his
schoolbag and. trot back to school.
"Oh ho!' sighed Jack; ''it feels very dull
TO go back to school. 1 wish I was Jack
the Giant-killer. and had nothing to do but
climb beanstalk."
But when he glanced slyly at the dining
room window, on his way out of the door,
there was no sign of a beanstalk, though
he had dropped a whole handful of beans
out there on purpose.
well boys, a happy New Yearv' said
Miss Lucy the boys chartered noisily in
the schoolroom, and Happy New Year!"
echoed all the fresh young voices
After a sober little talk about the old
year that was gone and the new year that
was coming, Miss Lucy said, There is
one job I've laid out for you this year,
boys, and that is to kill giant"
Jack started. Had Miss Lucy heard him
talking to himself a while ago?
II won't tell you the giants name now"
said the teacher, but l will let you know
If see him around"
AS l told you Jack didn't feel bit like
going to school. and he missed his spelling,
and got his sums wrong and blotted his
copybook, until Miss Lucy had to give him
several ugly marks on his report.
"Ah Jackie" she said that giant has

ports Of his successes reached home and
found their way to Miss Caldwell. Whether
she repented over the GOODNESS with which
she had received Klnney's advances is her
secret. In few years, rejecting all other
suitors, she decided to devote her life to
school teaching, and she, too, left James,
Vile With the death of her family and
friends the last ties that bound her to the
village where she was born were severed
years ago.
When Kinney had seen enough of the
world to deaden. as he thought, the panss
that had returned whenever he thought OF
his boyish love, he returned to GAINESVILLE.
The old wounds were reopened. He inquired
where Miss Caldwell had gone, but no one
was able to tell him. She had passed out
of his life, he thought. but he determined
to keep his youthful vow, and thereafter
no woman. no matter how beautiful or
charming. received more than a passing
glance from him. and he devoted himself
to his work.
The friends of his youth had retired and
their places were being taken by a younger
generation, but still the love of the man
remained. In the meantime Miss Caldwell
had become a member of the faculty of tho
New York State Normal school at New
Paltz, Ulster county.
Among the strangers at the village hotel
on fateful afternoon was one who kept
looking across the table fat a distinguished
looking woman. His heart almost stopped
beating. He thought he recognized the face
that had been enshrned in his heart for
forty years. AS soon as he could recover
his self-possession he leaned over and asked
the woman II he could speak with her for
a few minutes alone. The request was
graciously granted and they retired to tho
hotel parlor. What was said is their secret.
The stalwart stranger and Miss Caldwell
came to Kingston and at the home of Mrs.
Margaret ConlSlin, a friend of the bride
they were married. When wedding music
was proposed one of the few guests sug-

Another Boss Quits.

Pat" McCarren, the Tammany man, is
going to quit politics and devote himself to
the turf. Two years ago he was ambitious
to become the really great American plum
ger. Then his $4,000 bets were quite COM
mon. He had hard luck streak and lost
an immense sum of money. He was so hard
hit that he was unable for time to take
up his markers" but he made good all his
obligations to the boolSmakers, sold his race
horses and retired from the race track for a
time. This year he is on the turf, appar-
entity as well fixed financially as he ever
was. Some evil-minded persons say McCar-
rem bets John ID. Rockefellers money. They
do not mean Mr.. Rockefeller has taken TO
gambling but use this method OF insinu-
ating that the senator, as Legislative

Thomas Ridley of Pittsburg, formerly an
engineer on the Pennsylvania road, was re-
tired on a pension two years ago. When
Andrew Carnegie was a poor young fellow
Ridley helped him once or twice and the
two have been close friends for many years.
"Old Tom" as he is called, visited the null
ti-milionaire recently. The latter presented
him with a book on the hyleaf of which is
the inscription: "Old Tom Ridley, one Of
my first and one of my best friends One OF
the few, rapidly growing fewer, VINO called
me Andy and have the right to do so. New
York. December IS, teo6. Andrew Carnegie"
Ridley, who is so years old. carries a s52S
gold watch, with a 74-pennyweight gold

and loyalty in refusing to run his train into
fire in Pittsburg on July %. 1877. as or

over which Alice Roosevelt will soon reign,

country. Nicholas Longworth l, great
grandfather of the present congressman,

deeply buried in a veritable forest, the
mansion stands, surrounded by hothouses
and foliage and filled with an art collec-
ton of priceless worth, which is one of
the finest of two continents. Canvases
from the brushes of the most famous mas
tiers adorn the galleries. Second only to
it are the tapestries and oriental rugs.

from abroad and S4l kilograms and gave a
personal decision in sls cases. He never
signs any dispatch without reading It. He
also has a great number OF verbal reports
made TO him and 1t Is probably this over
