Launching a Big Cannon Boom.

Washington, May speaker Jo-
seph G. Cannon of the house of repre-
sentatives, is 20 years old today and
his birthday will be made the starting
point of big political boom, the OBJ
ject Of which is the nomination of Mr.
Cannon for the presidency Of the Unit.
ed States. The friends, personal as
well as political, have arranged a big
reception and dinner in honor of Speak
or Cannon's birthday. and it will be at
the dinner tonight that the boom will
be formally launched.
Notwithstanding his 20 years Speak.
er Cannon is still hale and strong and
shows none of the failings concomitant
to old age. The proposition of starting
a Cannon boom was suggested some
time last year and since then it has
been thoroughly discussed by the
friends Of Mr.. Cannon and many of the
political leaders who are not them
selves aspirants to the nomination. It
is believed by many friends of Mr.. Can
non that leaving President Roosevelt
out Of consideration, Speaker Cannon
is the only man who can save the Re-
publican party from defeat at the next
presidential election.
The party leaders have been much
worried by the signs of radicalism and
revolt in the political atmosphere, AMI

will take place at the Washington navy

The candidates who are authorized to

election of candidates. This appears
to be an excellent opportunity for

young men who can meet the require
ments, which are not excessive. The
general qualifications as to age AMI
physical ability are liberal enough to
admit any young man to the list OF
candidates. and it is hoped on this eS'
animation to fill any existing vacancies
in the corps In this connection IT is
interesting to know that about the only
personnel legislation which stands a
chance of enactment this year is that
which will give promotion to assistant
paymasters to the next higher grade
after they have served three years in
the former position. This is done in
order to escape stoppage of promotion
on account of lack of vacancies in the
senior grade.

A Story Of Jean Bart, an Old Time
French Naval Oficer.

Jean Bart, a French naval com
mander of the last part of the seven
teenth century, was at one time or.
dered to convey the Prince de Cont.
candidate for the throne Of Poland, TO
Dantzic, voyage fraught with dan
ger, as his vessel must pass through
the waters where were cruising the hos
tile fleets of the English and Dutch.
During the passage the little squadron
was chased by the enemy, and Bart, AS
soon as they were reported, called his
little son to him aHd gave him whis'
pered instructions. The pursuit con
tinued for eight hours, and at the end
Of that time the enemy was no longer
in sight. Then Bart went down into
the cabin, where the prince had been
sitting in ignorance of the days ex'
element.
"You've had narrow escape, mon
seigneur." said he.
"what do you meant" asked the
prince
"why," answered Bart, "ihat
we've been chased by three eight'gun
ships and nine frigates. We've run
them out Of sight, and there's nothing
to fear"
"But, NJ. Bart, il they had taken
usI"
"oh, monseigneur, that was quite
impossible.
"Ehi WHAT Why impossiblei"
Because" answered Bart, ~ had
stationed my brave son, my Cornil, in
the gunioom with lighted mach and
strict orders to put It into the powder
il we should be overpOwered."
"whati" cried the prince. "You
would have done such thingi"
"Certainly would have done II, f"
said Bart. "It shall never be said
that allowed you TO be taken when
the king ordered me to take care that
you were not"
Perhaps the prince himself might
have preferred prosaie surrender 20 the
doubtful glory Of being blown Up.
