Reverie.

IT'S a merry old world when the heart
When happiness beckons and hope lures
on,
When the moonlight entices and songs
are sung;
Eyes shining with laughter, and every
Full Of promise and faith in the things
to be-
'Tis merry old, jolly old world!
'Tia a busy old world when the seasons
Is rushing us on in the high noon
And strength and power and nanhoods
pride
Stem the forces of nature, and side by
Goes the struggle of living, of riches,
'Tis hard old, busy old world
Ills funny old world that the plans
Should fail and miscarry-'tis strange
to see
Times vista illumine the parts we
played!
How The roles have altered, the
Quite OTHER from what we have hoped
1t to be-
'Tis queer old, funny old world!
When hope has vanished and pleasure
is gone!
'Tis dreary old world when the skies
turn gray
When the heartbeats are ticking the
end of the day
The summons that beckons from earth
life away,
And world values perish. its glories
decay
tbs weary old, dreary old world!

Japanese wrestling will not again be
nart of the athletic training of the
hnidshipmen at the Naval Academy.
1The president has ordered that the art
of iiu jitsu be excluded from the ex-
ercises in which the midshipmen in
dulge, and the old form of American
wrestling will be continued. This is
the result of recommendations made
bye Rear Admiral Sands, the superin-
tcndent of the academy, the command
ant of the corps of midshipmen and the
naval surgeon on duty at the academy.
The latter reported that there was
greak danger of permanent injury as a
result of Japanese wrestling, and there
was a unanimity of view on the part
of the officers at Annapolis that there
was no special advantage to be Geriv-
ed from the work. Besides the exaert,
Mr.. Yamashita, who used to wrestle
with President Roosevelt, has gone
back to Japan, understanding, evident
ly, that his services were no longer
needed. The money which was allot-
ted to pay him will be used in other

in writing OF the great scheme, which
is now a leading issue before the ueo-
Die Of that state, enumerates the main
features of the plan. There are $780,
900 acres of swamp lands to be freed
Of water In the midst Of this dreary
waste lies Lake Okeechobee, 1t is pro-
posed to cut canals and drain off part
Of the waters of this lake, SO as to re-
duce the surface four feet, to prevent
theoverfiowing, which now floods 1900
900 acres of the surrounding country.
The work calls for $50 miles of canals

from 50 to 100 feet From these main
arteries will be cut smaller bitches,
which must be made by the Durchas-
ers of the property.

General Kuroki. the famous Japanese
soldier, has been varlously described as
Of Polish, Russian and German extrac-
ton. Another interesting chapter has
been added to this genealogical sympo-
stun by an official publication in the
0ffisial Gazette of Lima (PeruD, which
makes the claim, and submits plausi-
BILE statement to prove it, that Kuroki's
father was a Peruvian patriot whose
name was Transito Charroqui 1t is
also declared that the generals father
was a descendant of the Incas, who
themselves are believed to have been
descendants of an Asiatic race.

SWERED.
Remarkable Incident That Started
Humble Newspaper Man on Road
to Fame-Told Of Prince
Consort's Death.

Newspaper scoops" are, usually, Of
little account in the journalistic world
of England Yet it was a scoop
and most remarkable one which gave
Thomas Calling, the veteran London
editor, his first step up the ladder.
Mr. Calling, after half century Of
work on Lloyd's Weekly London
News, has resigned and left active
journalism on the first of the year.
he was succeeded by Robert Donald,
managing editor of the Daily Chroni.
Gle.
Mr.. Catling's memorable scoop"
/ was no less than the announcement
of the death of the prince consort
Queen Victoria's husband. It occurred
on Saturday evening, just As years
ago.
The prince consOrt was i'll, but his
death was not expected. There were
no reporters at Windsor castle except
ing Calling. Douglas Jerrold was then
editing Lloyd's. He wanted report
on the condition of the princes i'll
ness. but there were few news agen-
cies in those days and his staff of re-
porters were busy. So Jerrold drew
on the composing room and because
of his smart and active look, selected
young Calling, then one of the COM
positors, to go down to Windsor. Mr..
Calling, in telling the story himself,
says that when he reached Windsor
1t was nearly dark and raining. He
walked to the castle and, of course,
was refused admission.
There was no one at the main gates
who would or was authorized to give
him information He wandered about
in the rain for a couple of hours,
prowling around the outskirts Of the
castle, hoping something would turn
up. Wet, cold, miserable. realizing
that he had dismally failed on his first
assignment, Calling determined to
walk once more around the castle be-
fore going Londonward. He offered
up little prayer, bareheaded in the
rain, asking for help in his need.
That prayer was quickly answered
The guard had just been changed and,
as Calling passed one Of the solitary
sentries at little wicket gate, he OBJ
served that the man was In tears In
reply to a question the man said word
had just been taken to the guardroom
that the prince consort had passed
away.
CatIing got hurriedly such particu-
lars as the sentry knew and was then
off to London. He reached the Lloyd's
News ONCE shortly after midnight.
The paper published the story and
scooped'' every paper In the world.
The death was only '.uhofacialiy' an
nounced BY England some hours later.
The composing room saw Calling no
more. He was at once given 10
sition on the editorial star and I'VE
years later was promoted second In
command, or chief subeditor, as it is
called in England. Eighteen years la
ter he was appointed to the editorship,
which he has held ever since.
