Something To Laugh At

Next to kiss a laugh is the most
popular thing in the world. The sup
ply of kisses is limited, being largely
controlled by a fair but capricious
trust. The supply of laughs, how
ever, is practically unlimited so long
as you don't get too grumpy to look
for them. One reason for the re-
markable success of The Chicago
Record-Herald is its daily recogni
ton of the value of kindly, whole
some fun. The Alternating Cur.
rents" column of S. E Kiser, the
humorist and poet, is one of the
brightest things in American Jour
naiism. There is always a sn1ile or a
good laugh in Ralph Wilder's car
toons, bringing CHEEKY greeting as
as you pick up the paper each morn
ing.
But it is in The Sunday Record
Herald that one finds the most
chuckles The colored comic section
is full of laughter for young and old
and these amusing illustrations are
free from the vulgarity and mis-
chievous suggestions that have
barred so many comic sections from
refined homes. Then there is always
lot of high-class humor in the Sun
day Magazine of The Record
led by Sewell Ford S ininitable
Shorty McCabe stories. The delec-
table Shorty and his red-headed
rival, Torchy, have become so pop
ular that one or the other now
appears in funn, yarn every Sun
day throughout the year. So long
as Shorty and Torchy are on deck
there will be something worth living
for. The Record-Herald has the
right idea. Clean humor doubles the
welcome of good newspaper.

THOMAS F. cuRLEY
HAS SOME APPETITE.
Eats Thirteen Lobstera. Sixty Eggs or
Hundred Oysters at Meal.

Sixty soft boiled eggs, thirteen lob
sters or 100 oysters on the half shell
at one meal is the record attained by
Thomas f.. Curley. the heartiest man
in Rockland. Mass, who announces
that he will devour a larger quantity
OF eggs. Holsters or oysters than any
other champion eater In the state.
When Mr. Curley feels very hungry
1t is common practice for him to en-
ter lunehroom and devour all that
the menu calls for. Then he asks for
a duplicate order, gets 1t and eats all
that is set before him. If he fasts for
couple of days there seems to be no
limit at all to his capacity for food

Mr Curley eats four meals a day and
weighs l75 pounds In explaining his
diet he says:
For breakfast generally have
good sized order OF steak. two raw and
three fried eggs. two baked potatoes,
two slices of toasted bread and pint
Of coffee
AS an example Of my usual dinner
! may mention large order of roast
beef. with side orders of veak- and

and two orders Of pudding.
"For supper an ordinary menu with
me would consist Of cold roast pork
and beans. side order Of cold roast
beef. a pint of milk. three slices OF
cake and a dish Of cherries"
He says he has never suffered from
dyspepsia.

principle involved except that of am
bition for power
Uncle Sam a Guardian.
Much of this kind of work has oc-
cured in South and Central America.
And in the degree Of guardianship
which the United States must feel
over the republics of this hemisphere
in maintaining their integrity against
European invasion, we ought to vel
come every opportunity which gives
us q legitimate instrument by which
we can make less probable such in
ternecine strife.
"In the assertion of that sort OF
guardianship we nave to be careful
to avoid the charge which is always
made by the suspicious, that we are
seeking our ACKNOWLEDGEMENT. 1t is
an unfounded charge, for we envy no
power it's territory. We have enough.
But we have been able to fend of
war in five or more instances of re-
cent date because of our attitude as
an older brother of these small gov
ernments.
"Thus in Cuba, after the Plat
amendment, we were able to inter.
vene and prevent bloody war OF

agreement we made with Santa Do

nues and liquidate and satisfy hel
legitimate debts, and by putting oul

Fisher Promptly Approves.

After reviewing all the facts bought
out at the various trials and hearings
i'm the cases extending over a period
of several years and including the
final hearing recently attended by
Secetary Fisher himself, Commits
sioner bennett reached the conclusion
that the claims had not legal stand
ing and ordered them Cancelled. Sec,
rotary Fisher promptly approved this
finding, although to complete the rec
ord he must do so formally upon APP
peal to him
Among the Cunningham claimants
are a number of the prominent men
of the northwest. Commissioner Den
nett refers to them as having suff-
cient means to have carried forward
extensive coal operations in Alaska
The various claimants were interest
ed in the Alaska coal situation in 1902
by Clarence Cunningham, who made
the various filings and conducted
most of the negotiations. The claims
once were clear listed for patent, but
final action was held up at the request
of CLAWS.
There seems to be no DOUBT" said
Mr.. bennett in his decision, that in
the beginning the participants were
subscribers for joint interests and not
owners of separate claims, and that
the substantial character of the trans
action never changed In 1905 they
they were still 'co-owners' of a sin
gle property, although in order to ac-
quire it each particular claim had
been allotted to particular individ.
ual and had been entered by him in
his name"
The original agreement with the
Guggenheims contemplated the for
nation of a corporation as soon as
the titles were secured. This plan
gave the Guggenheims the right tc
mine the coal on a royalty basis. The
Guggenheims were also to build {
railroad from the mines to the coast
AS finally entered into the agreement
with the Guggenheims for a salt

eTal claimants.
Thirty-Three Claimants.
"The fact" says Commissioner Den
nett, that it was reported to the Gug
genheims that there were thirty-thre
independent claimants to be reckone
with in nowise strengthens the d,
Tense. 1t is not to be supposed tn
any man representing these entr,
men as a committee would suggest I
a prospective purchaser of the pro

Knowing that an area of 100 acres
could not be successfully operated,
and that the greater the area the
more valuable the property, would
men connected by the ties of blood
have consented that their claims be
scattered throughout the field? Would
men who had been associated to-
gether as partners since their youth,
and who had grown rich together,
/ have agreed to the placing of their
claims at remote distances from each
other?
IF each claimant was to receive
single tract and no interest in any
Other would Cunningham have locat-
led the great majority of the men who
first went into the scheme and made
it's success on the timber claims Of
the southern tier, claims which
possessed but little value as compared
with the others?
Each Contributed the Same.
"If there was no prior agreement,
would Clarence Cunningham, in April
1907, before many of the certificates
were issued, have entered into nego-
tiations with the Guggenheims look
ing to the disposition of the combined
properties?
The amounts contributed by the
several entrymen were substantially
the same. If it was not understood
there was to be common profit

nothing whatever was done have per-

not necessary. They speak for them
