Teeny-Weeny


Every evening, after tea,
Teeny-Weeny comes to me,
And, astride my willing knee,
Plies his lash and rides away;
Though that palfrey, all too spare,
Finds his burden hard to bear,
Tecny-W eeny doesn't care
He commands, and | obey!
First it's trot; and gallop then
Now it's back to trot again;
Teeny-Weeny likes it when
He is riding fierce and fasti
Then his dark eyes brighter grow
And his cheeks are all aglow-
"More!" he cries, and never "Whoar'
Till the horse breaks down at last!
Oh, the strange and lovely sights
Teeny-Weeny sees of nights,
AS he makes those famous flights
On that wondrous horse of his!
Oftentimes, before he knows,
Wcarylike, his eyelids close,
And. still smiling, off he goes
Where the land OF By-low is.
There he sees the folk of fay
Hard at ring-a-rosie play,
And he hears those fairies say,
Come, let's chase him to and fro!'
But, with a defiant shout,
Teeny puts that host to rout-
OF this tale | make no doubt
Every night he tells it so!
So I feel a tender pride
In my boy who dares TO ride
(That fierce horse of his astride)
Off into those misty lands;
And. as on my breast he lies,
Dreaming in that wondrous wise,
caress his folded yes
Pat his little dimpled hands.
On a time he went away,
lust a little while TO stay,
And I'm not ashamed TO say
7 was very lonely then;
Life without him was so sad
You can fancy ! was glad
And made merry when | had
Teeny-Weeny back again!
So. of evenings. after tea,
When he toddles up 10 me
And goes Juggling at my knee,
You should hear his palfrey neigh
You should see him prance and shy.
When. with an exulting cry,
Teeny-Weeny, vaulting high,
Plies his lash and rides away!

EUGENE FIELD.
The Children's Poet.

Eugene Field loved children. He
understood them and wrote of them
and for them with a sweetness and
tenderness and child-like simplicity
which entitled him to be called the
children's poet" Perhaps nowhere
more truly than in his poems and
stories of child life has he displayed
his fine mental qualities and his ten
der human sympathy. Three of his
child poems are given below, not be-
cause they are necessarily the best,
but as samples of his exquisite feel
ing and thorough sympathy with the
child heart.

RUSH MARINES TO CORINTo
U. S. s. Buffalo with 700 Men Aboard
Gets "Hurry-Up" Sailing Orders
American Citizens Alarmed.

Washington.-The United States
ship Buffalo, now at Panama with 700
marines on board, was Friday ordered
to sail at once for Corinto.
This action was taken as the result
of telegram received from the United
States consulate at Managua, in which
1t was stated that inasmuch as Ze-
laya, in his message resigning the
presidency, had made unpleasant ref
erence to Americans, and owing to
a report which was current in that
city to the effect that civilian adher-
ents of Zelaya had been armed with
daggers, the citizens of the United
States had appealed to the consulate
for protection.
Another telegram from the Ameri-
can consulate at Managua states that
it is currently rumored there that
when Madriz arrives in Managua Ze-
laya will formally surrender his office
to the national assembly, and that that
body has already received instructions
from Zelaya to cast its vote for Irias
as president of Nicaragua.
The conclusion of the United States
officers at Managua is that by the
selection of Irias, Zelaya would still
retain his hold on power and continue
to dominate the situation.

KREMER CONVICTED
FORMER lTASCA TREASURER is
CONVICTED OF GRAND
LARCENY.
SHORTAGE WILL REACH 100000
Charged With the Appropriation of
County Funds to Own Use-Ren-
atty Is Not to Exceed 10 Years
In State Prison.

Grand Rapids-The jury in the case
against A. A. Kremer, former county
treasurer, brought in a verdict Of gull
ty on the charge Of grand larceny. for
appropriating county funds for his
own use.
The defense had not admitted that
the late treasurer had taken any funds
of the county, but it's principle conten-
ton was that the accused was suffer
ing from morphine insanity.
The statutory penalty for grand lar
ceny is not to exceed 10 years in state
prison.
The trial had lasted all or the past
week and most of the time was taken
up with expert testimony as to the san
ity of the accused. DR.. Arthur Swee-
ney of st. Paul testified that Kremer
was not insane when he examined him
Nov. 2. DR.. w. A. Jones of Mime
apolis also gave testimony in the case.
Kremer was defended by Senator c.
c. McCarey and the prosecution was
conducted by Frank Price, county at
torney.
nC uSldlCdIlOAo ny NIL IAlCu1SA
were discovered early in October and
reported to Attorney General George
T. Simpson. He transmitted the mat
ter to the public examiner and Deputy
M. F. Kahn was sent to Grand Rapids
to make an examination. He reported
that he had found shortage of $4,000,
and that $4,000 had been restored and
that he had Kremer arrested and took
charge of the Office. Governor Eber
hart at once suspended him.
When Mr.. Kahn went into the books
further, he found more and more short
ages, extending over a period Of near
ly three years. The latest report was
that the shortage would be close to
100000.
Warwick, Mitchell and company, ex-
pert accountants, are working, on the
books and although they have not COM
pleted their work, it is intimated that
the shortage will be even larger than
supposed.
A large part of it will be restored
and most of the remainder will be paid
by the bonding company.
During his first term of Office he was
bonded by the Metropolitan Surety
company, now defunct, and the county
may lose some on that account.

KING LEOPOLD PASSES AWAY
AGED MONARCH UNABLE TO
LONGER STAND STRAIN.
After RestfuI Day, Alarming Symp.
toms Appeared, Physicians Unable
to ProIong His Life.

Brussels.-King Leopold of Belgium
died at 2:35 o'clock Friday morning,
his aged and wasted body being I'M
able to stand the strain put upon it.
The collapse occurred suddenly and
at a moment when the doctors SEEM
ingly had had the greatest hopes for
his recovery.
Apparently the drainage of the
wound was perfect, as no fever was
present and during the day the king
had been able to take nourishment.
The public at large was satisfied
that the king was on the road to re-
covery, but within the pavilion. where
the king lay, there was a feeling OF
anxiety, chiefly because Of Leopold's
great age.
After a restful day the patient was
able to sleep for brief period early
in the evening and the night passed
quietly. But towards two o'clock
alarming symptoms appeared.
Suddenly the king turned and called
to DR.. Thiriar:
II am suffering"
DR.. De Page was summoned and the
two physicians did everything posi-
BILE to prolong life, but without avail.
The end came quickly and, after a
spell of weakness, peacefully.
Prince Albert arrived at the death
bed about twenty-five minutes later.
The young man who will ascend
the Belgian throne, the pride of his
nation and one of the best educated Of
royalty, lover of outdoor sports and
fair play, wept as he stood beside the
remains of the uncle whose death
had made him king and across the
watching city there swept the cry:
"The king is dead; long live the
king!"
Leopold H., king of the Belgians,
was born April 9, 1885. His father was
Prince Leopold of Saxe-Coburg, an
uncle of the late Queen Victoria. His
mother was a daughter of Louis Phil
ippe of France.
Leopold's father was elected king
of the Belgians in 1881 when they es-
capped from Dutch rule, and Leopold
H. succeeded to the throne in 1855. At
the age of 10 he was married to Marie
Henrietta, daughter of the Archduke
Joseph of Austria. On his majority he
entered the Belgian senate. During
the following five years he travelled in
Spain, Morocco, Algiers, Egypt, Pales-
tine, India and China, earning the dis
tinction of being the most travelled
monarch in Europe when he became
ruler of Belgium. Leopold often ex-
pressed a desire to visit the United
States in later years, but the coming
of old age, his cares and perhaps, to
a certain extent, his pleasures pre-
vented.

COOK COMMITTEE is AT WORK
Members Are Fully Acquainted with
Explorers Records-Loose-Dun
Affidavits Create Excitement.

Copenhagen.-The meetings of the
Cook committee at the observatory
are vigorously guarded.
The committee is now fully acquaint.
ed with the explorers records and 1t
is said that they contain nothing DR..
Cook could not have compiled after
his return, during his five months stay
in Greenland or aboard the Hans
Egede, where there was an abundance
of voluntary assistance by scientist
versed in exploration, knowledge of
instruments and also of the use of a
typewriter
The Loose-Dunkle affidavits have ar
rived and are creating much excite
ment.
Private advices from Christiania
state that Nansen, who has hitherto
declined to give an opinion, disbe-
lieves DR.. Cooks claims.
New York.-Capt B. S. Osbon OF
this city, secretary of the Arctic
club, has written Capt Joseph
e. Bernier in Ottawa, Ont, and others
that Capt August w. Losses story
of his dealings with DR.. Cook, as pub
lished in New York newspaper, was
concocted for sale without regard to
the truth.
I'm the presence of witnesses" said
Capt. Osbon, II heard Loose say:
81 was out for the money and
didn't care how / got it,
Capt. Osbon does not believe that
Losses narrative as supported by his
affidavits, was part of any plot to
discredit Dr. Cook.
",The idea originated with Loose
and Dunkle," says Capt. Osbon. "They
had for sale matter in this contro-
versy so explosive that nobody dared
handle it. When they found that out,
they cast about for something else.
Dunkle was the promoter. Loose the
workman. Also, Dunkle got most of
the money. That's what Loose says,
and now he is casting around to see
where he stands. He's got a con-
science and it smarts."

JOHN w. GATES IN NEW ROLE
Appears Before Methodist Conference
and Warns Delegates Against
Speculative and other Gambling.

Galveston, Tex.-John w. Gates,

figure, appeared in a new light at the
Gulf District Methodist Episcopal con-
ference in session at Port Arthur,

forms of gambling.
He pictured the life of a man who
gambled, and specialized, and turned
fortunes in few hours. jumping from
pauper to millionaire, and then to
pauper, as compared with the tiller of
the soil, and the mechanic and the
merchant, who earns his money by
labor and by shrewd business meth
DDS, invest well his savings.
