TOLD OF SECRETARY ROOT.

When Secretary Root was at
Panama on his return from South
America, Gov, Magoon gave him
dinner, at which were present vari-
GUS dignitaries. An invited banker
who failed to appear called next day
with explanations. A birth had oc-
CURED just at that time in his fam
lily, by which another girl had been
added to six predecessors.
"Too bad it was not a boy" said
Gov. Magoon, ''you might have
called him Elihu Root"
"Oh,," said the father, "we had de-
cided to call him that if the child
had been boy. But not being able
to call the child exactly that, l shall
call her Rootine."

TO HARNESS OCEAN TiD-
Experiments Made in Maine Show
Progress Toward Success That
Will Mean Much.

Great progress toward successful
harnessing of the tides by which it
is hoped to save the vast amount of
tidal energy now going to waste and
devote it to the operation of mills,
quarries. factories and other estab-
lishmcnts needing a driving force is
being made in South Thomaston,
Me. Experiments on an extensive
scale are being conducted, and it is
hoped may solve the problem which
has taxed the inventive minds of
engineers all over the world. A basin
with an area of little more than
one square mile is being used for the
operations, and a 12-foot rise in the
tide makes it well adapted for the
work. Promoters of the experiment
plan to store the tide power in COM
pressed air apparatus and transmit
it to lime quarries and factories
along the coast by pipe line.

CONVERTS TO MOSLEM FAITH
Philadelphia Has Coterie of Citizens
Who Follow the Teachings Of
Mahomet.

"Probably the fact that there are
a number of Buddhists in Philadel-
phia is not news" says local OBJ
server, but you may be surprised to
learn that there is quite gathering
here of Americans who are Moham-
medans-that is, who have become
converts to the Moslem faith. Their
number is about 20 and they meet
in one another's houses from time to
time for worship. How they came
to join the Mohammedan faith is
more than | know, but of the fact
that they did there is no doubt. One
of their number, who formerly lived
in Turkey, has been the chief pros
elyter, and it has been his function
to translate and comment upon the
Koran, or Mohammedan Bible. The
circle is very exclusive and seeks to
avoid notice. At present its men,
bers are scattered among the sum-
mer resorts, as they are mostly per-
sons of means. ."-Philadelphia Rec

DAYS OF WHALING GONE.

"Newfoundland's coastwise whale
fishery, of which so much was ex-
pected, has utterly collapsed" writes
Consul Cornelius at st. Johns.
"Started about ten years ago, with
modern steamers and equipment, the
first operators did so well that from
a single ship it grew to Il. The re-
suit was the speedy killing out of
the herds Of gigantic mammals,
1900 of which were destroyed in a
single year, Gradually, however,
the catch fell off, and within the
past year six or seven of the steam
ers have been sold for similar work
on the British Columbia and Jap
anese coasts, while the companies
owning them have gone into liquida-
ton. During the season of 1907 it
is not expected that there will be
more than seven or eight whalers
operating in ALL"

ARCTIC PHENOMENA.

One of the peculiar phenomena of
the Arctic regions is "sea smoke"
Explorers tell of a steam as if from
a boiling kettle which rises from the
water when the temperature is Is
degrees below zero. At 40 degrees
the snow and human bodies emit
this vapor, which changes into tiny
icy particles which fill, the air and
make light noise like the rustic of
silk. At 40 degrees tree trunks
burst with loud report, rocks break
up and streams of smoking water
flow from great cracks in the earth's
surface. knives break in cutting but
ter and lighted cigars go out by con-
tact with the ice upon the beard.

RURAL FREE DELIVERY.

"The rural free-delvery system
has caused us no end Of extra
work." said the publisher of a trade
journal that has a large country
circulation. "Probably not even the
postal authorities realize so clearly
as the man who has a heavy country
correspondence how rapidly the
rural free-delivery system has
grown in the last two years. The
books containing the address of
our country correspondents and SUBJ
scribers have had to be entirely
overhaulcd. Scores of little post Of
fees have literally been wiped off
the list, and John Smith and hun
dreds of other men who formerly
had their mail addressed to their
home village are now on route num-
Der two, three or four of the deliv-
cry system of a gool-sized town."

HAD POOR IDEA OF FUN
Messenger Boys "Joke" in This Case
Was Connected with Working
Recoi Attachment.

A boy who was until recently en-
ployed as a messenger at one OF the
local telegraph offices has an over
weening sense of humor, says the
Duluth News-Tribune. 1t is of the
penetrating type, which nearly al
ways furnishes the laugh for him
alone and regrets for the other fel-
low. In fact, he recently left the
employ of the company rather un-
tremendously because of it. Busi-
ness was dull one day and, overcome
by ennui, the boy in question went
to the telephone. He called up the
home of one of the other employees
and asked for the latter's mother.
81 am awfully sorry to have to tell
you, Mrs. Blank" he said, 'but
your son was just run over and had
his leg cut off"
Then he hung up. Fortunately
the conversation was overheard and
the frantic woman quickly reas-
sured.
"Why did you do it?" asked the
manager.
"Just for fun"
'Well, | know something funnier
than that" said the manager. "You
get out of here just for fun and
don't come back, just for fun or
anything else"
