MACON WILL
GOVERN CUBA
His Authority viii be Equal
to That Exercised Former
ly by General Wood.
Cuba Will Have the semblance Of an
Autonomous Government, and VIII
Be Represented In Washing.
ton BY a Mlnister-con-
suls viii Remain.

Washington.-Gov Charles E..
Magoon viii exercise In Cuba all the
power which was vested in General
Leonard Wood when he ruled Cuba
under the title of military governor.
Governor Magoon will be known as
the provisional governor, but his au-
thority will be plenary and he will be
subject only to the orders of the pres
dent and secretary of war. Cuba
will have the semblance OF an autono-
nous government and the United
States will continue to be represented
In Havana by an American minister
and the consuls will continue at their
posts. 1t is officially stated that there
has been and will be no subversion of
the Cuban constitution. BY incorpo-
rating the Plat amendment into the
constitution, Cuba provided for just
such an emergency as has arisen and
for the United States to intervene
and restore order, consequently, 1t is
said, Cuba is still to be governed by
constitutional means and by machin
cry such as is provided in any commu
nifty where martial law is necessary.
During the occupancy of Cuba it is
not expected that the Cuban congress
will exercise any power. In fact,
there is no method by which 1t can be
assembled, unless Governor Magoon
shall deem such action necessary to
prepare the way for another election.
Such a meeting is not necessary, for
the provisional governor by decree
may perform all functions looking to
the re-establishment of the civil gov
eminent of Cuba.

KEEPER NEARLY TORN
TO PIECES BY A BEAR
Charles Hanson's Terrible Encounter
With An Enraged Cinnamon at
the Boise zoo-Brave Wife
to the Rescue.

Boise, Ida.-A thrilling and bloody
encounter with bear occurred in the
Zoo" OF Riverside park Sunday morn
ing, Charles Hanson being terribly
bitten by the beast. Hanson was en-
ployed to look after the animals. He
went into a cage containing a large
cinnamon, weighing some 500 pounds,
and a smaller animal, to put in fresh
straw. The big bear made a pass at
him and he attempted to back out, but
tripped in the straw and fell into the
little enclosure outside The CHINA
mon rushed on him and seized him by
the arm. Mrs. Hanson was in the
small enclosure with her children.
She sought to fight the bear, but her
husband called out, "Fod Gods sake.
get out Of here. The bear has me, but
you can have yourselves!"
Mrs. Hanson thereupon threw the
children out, and, securing club. at
tackled the bear. The bear paid no at
tention. Men gathered on the outside,
but did not venture in. The bear,
after chewing the arm nearly of,
made swipe that laid the scalp open
and then grabbed at the mans throat.
At that instant man outside thrust
stick across Hanson's throat in
such way that it protected it
against the teeth.
BY this time a man named Sewell
came running up with rifle. He was
urged not to shoot, as he might kill
the man. Hanson called out: Shoot!
am dead If you don't" Sewell then
killed the bear with a shot through
the heart. The muscle was torn off
Hanson's arm and hung at the elbow
1t is thought the arm can be saved.

The worst of the tornadoes was north
of New Orleans, where, between $50
and o'clock, it devastated portions
of three parishes. New Orleans was
visited by another tornado, and a
third passed northward of Biloxi on
the gulf coast
The first tornado struck west of

Merry ENGLAND.

Times and manners change. n.
customs Of London. ancient and ma
ern, greatly differ Says the Lonac-
Times, regarding medieval dav..
Dancing was a passion with eysrv.
body. From the queen to the min.
maid, all the women danced; from ths
king to the crftsman, all the youn.
men danced. They danced in the
streets whenever 1t was possible
which was one of the reasons WIN
May day was so joyous a festival
The more courtly people had dances
dignified and stately, such as thu
Danse au Virlet, in which each par.
former sang a verse, and then thev
all danced around, singing the Same
verse in chorus; the Pas de Brabant
where every man knelt to his partner:
the Danse au Chaplet, where eyery
man kissed his partner; they danced
together, singing minstrels' songs
they danced in the garden, they
danced In the meadow, they went out
at night to dance, with tapers in their
hands; they danced to beautiful music
played by an orchestra. Where IA
the dancing spirit now? Where the
mixed kissing? When did Merry Eng.

SHOWS THE EFFECTS OF PAIN.
Machine Gives Good Object Lesson to
Brutal Drivers Of Horses.

A new branch Of science heralds
its own appearance in Paris It Is
named Dolorimetry, and its function
is the measurement" OF dynamics
of pain by material means. The proc
ess is the invention Of NJ W. Serieyx,
who has moved to study the subject
by the terrible extent to which cruelty
toward horses is daily Witnessed In
the Paris streets, says the Philadel-
phia Record. His theory is that,
though French drivers and others in
charge Of horses are brutal toward
the animals. they are really more
stupidity ignorant than malignant, and
he has developed Dolorimetry as a
means Of giving them the evidence of
their own eyes of the grave physical
effects Of cruelty. The dolometer
shows that the dynamic force Of a
sharp cut with an ordinary carriers
whip is equal to about 2s5 pounds,
and that a vigorous jerk at the reins
puts a pressure of about 305 pounds
on the horses head. NJ. Serieyx
thinks that II they can be made &C
quainted with these figures horsemen
will be more careful.

ALASKAN CABLE Is BUSY.
Line to BE Duplexsd and 200 More
Miles Added.

Few people who have not been over
the ground have any conception of the
wonderful development Of Alaskan in
terests and trade. For instance, the
commercial receipts from the Alaskan
cable and telegraph lines for the
month Of July amounted to $4,000.
The rapid increase in the demands
upon the system will be met by the
government by duplexing the cable.
The cable ship Burnside, which is
to install the duplexing apparatus at
the Alaskan end of the cable, will
carry about 200 miles Of new cable
for the extension Of the service to
Ketchikan. This extension will be
effected by tapping the lines from Sit
ka to Juneau at Cape Fanshaw. From
that point branch line will be ex-
tended down the Wrangel, then to
Hadley on Prince of Wales island, and
then to Ketchikan. which is only so
miles from Fort Simpson. the English
town which is to be the terminus of
the Grand Trunk and Pacific railroads.
1t Is believed that this additional
200 miles of cable will largely increase
the cable receipts, as it taps a coun-
try rich in mines, fishery and canning
industries and greatly in need of daily
communication with the United
States. 1t is expected that this new
line will be completed by November 1.

Removing Ribbon crea.e..

Rtobons will become creased in spite
of the best care, and a hot fiat iron re-
moves but few of these marks of use.
n better plan is this: Take a smooth
quart bottle and fill with boiling hot
water Then wrap a single paper
smoothly around the bottle, wrap the
ribbon around the paper perfectly
smooth and tight and then wrap an.
other paper around this and pin in
place. Set 1t aside a day and night
and the ribbon will be beautifully
smooth and new to appearance. Soiled
ribbons may be soaked and squeezed
In weak suds and when rinsed and
dried, ironed in this way. It is a very
satisfactory method.

HloEous CRIMES OF A KING.

Paris.-Thanh Thai, king of AMMAN.
according to stories reaching Paris;
from Indo-China, has again been guilty
of such atrocities that the French
government may be compelled to adopt
rigorous disciplinary measures, as it
did several years ago, when, on ac-
count of the scandal caused by the
barbarous torture of the kings per-
sonal attendants, the French residents
at the head of the gendarmerie en-
tered the palace to save the lives Of
the attendants and restore order. The
mails now report that in August the
king was seized with homicidal ma
mia, ordered seven of his wives to be-
executed and looked on with delight
as they were slowly tortured to death.
A few days later the king shot down
a prince, who was 20 years old, a
member of the council of the royal
family, highly esteemed. and the last
surviving son of King Mimi Mang-
When me French resident called to

so, stirring frequently. Turn the ink
thus made into bottle. cork securely,
