ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., March
1S.-Geo. M. Cohan's friends are
worrying. They fear the Yankee
Doodle Kid will never come back
to them. iae
and under the care of two physi-
clans, Cohan will soon leave for
Europe for an indefinite stay. He
is here, resting up preparatory to
sailing.
The Yankee Doodle Kid comes
honestly by his sobriquet. He was
born on Fourth of July
1878. His whole family are actor
|folk-Jerry, his father; Helen,
his mether; Josephine, his sister,
and Tom, the cat-which they
were then. M
The Cohans were doing variety
turns when George M. came INTO
this world. When he reached tthe
tender age of 9 the Conan trio}be-
came the Four Cohans, and JSse-
phine, heretofore the sweet Child
singer, stepped aside for GeorS lie,
her fat little brother. I sf
Geo. Conan couldn'd sing mich
better then than he does now, but
he fast developed a peculiar stHle
of dancing which soon put khe
family into polite vaudeville md
prosperity. VI

THE OFFICIAL STORY OF MISSING WHAlEB0AT
Which Started on Race From the
 Gunboat Marietta.

Colon. Dec. 5.-In connection with the disappearance of the whaleboat of the gunboat Marietta. the following official statement was given out to- night: When at Pork Limon, on Fri day. November 26. two whaleboats en- gagged in a race and were soon lost to sight. During. their absence the wind shifted. and fTeshened. As tbey did not return at dark, the captah of the Marietta put to sea in search of them. but the search proved fruitless. The following morning the crew of one boat landed twelve miles south of Port Limon. They reported the current and wind strong. and were unable to return to the ship. They drifted until dark. when they RSard breakers ahead and anchored. At daylight they beached the boat.
 The warships Tacoma, Des Moiues. the Marietta. and the Eagle have all engaged ever since in a fruitless search for the missing boat The missing men are Robert Mayors. Roy Smith, boat swains. mates of the secord class. and Francis Jackson. David Tuckerman and James Miller. seamen."

THE COURT Al. CAIRO

 Not Be Punished.

Cairo. I'll. Dec. 5.-As result oi the recent race riots in Cairo. when Judge Lynch presided. the regular term of the circuit court which will commence tomorrow will be tine most important in Cairo's history.> Arthur Alexander, accused with the negro James, who was lynched. of having killed Miss Anna Pellv. will be tried during this term.
 What investigation of the lynchers was made will also come up for a legal review, but there is little pyos- pect of securing the conviction of the men who Jed the mob. General sym pathy Is with those who took the law into their own hands, and the authori- ties have found themselves up against stone wall Of silence. While most of the citizens regret the reign of terror which was inaugurated by the mob, a majority now consider it best to let sleeping dogs lie. and to forget the whole matter as speedily as may be.
