IS LATEST MAN ON EARTH
Sea-Farinq Man Discovers Him In
Person of Chief of the Solomon
Islands.

In all probability the LATEST man on
earth has been discovered by sea,
farlng men who had occasion to stop
at the Solomon Islands Of the East
Indies not long ago. Those islands arc
inhabited By tribes Of black men
known to the sailors as Kanakas
The ruler over the islands of Chois-
enc and Caristoval is one of these
Kanalas, known as Chief Sonoa. The
Kanakas are almost invariably short
and very heavily built, but Chief Sonoa
is the shortest and latest one of tho
bunch. weighing in the neighborhood
of 365 pounds. He is not only the
blacklist, latest and LATEST, but he
has more wives than any other chief
in that neighborhood.
One of the sailors who visited these
islands said that his majesty would
lie in the sands OF the beach while his
favorite wife would sit beside him and
smoke. She would draw a mouth full
of the smoke into her lungs. The chief
would open his mouth, the favorite
would blow the smoke into it and he
would inhaie it into his lungs. after
which he would let it pass out his
nose. Time after time would the wife
chosen for this job blow the smoke
into her chiefs mouth, and time after
time he would take it into his lungs to
let it pass out Of his nose. The to
bacco used was the strongest that
could be had, and with it was rolled
some kind of leaf that would bring on
sleep. A truly luxurious being is this
dusky king"

The Davis cup, emblematic OF the
worlds team championship in lawn
tennis, which returns to this country
after an absence Of ten years, was
first put In play in 1900. The trophy
massive silver bowl-was the gift
Of Dwight r. Davis, who donated it
with the idea Of stimulating interna-
tional competition in the court game
The success Of the plan was assured
from the beginning. During the thir-
teen years which have elapsed since
the gift, the cup has been in play
twelve seasons. The United States
and Englandsand Australia have all III
turn won and lost the prize, which has
proved to be the most widely and fre-
quently played for international trophy
on record.
During 1900 and 1902 the United

cup against the attack of the British
Isle players. In 1903 the Doherty
brothers carried it away to England.

Thompson sets New All Around Mark.
F. G. Thompson OF the Princeton
theological seminary In special meet
at Princeton, N. j., recently, sent into
the discard the worlds all around ath-
letic record previously held by Martin
Sheridan OF 1885 points. Thompson
went it Ia points better, and his score
Of 7,499 also eclipsed by 221h the mark
of Jim Thorpe, 7,4761a, recently wiped
of the A. A. U. books because OF the
Indian being professional.
Thompson had exceeded the record
twice before in practice, and the re-
cent meet was arranged by the Prince
ton authorities specially so that he
could put the record officially to his
credit. Opposing him. to make it tech
nically competition, were several
members Of the Tiger varsity track
team, who, however, were beaten bad
~ Simons was second with 5,266
points, Davy third with 4.09s and
Hays fourth with $3.50.
Thompson made his principal gains
over the old record In the mile run and
the 12O yard high hurdles. He was be-
hind Sheridan's performances In the
pole vault and 56 pounds weight throw.

A MERRY CHRISTMAS TO
ALL, ESPECIALLY "KIDS'

st. Matthew calls the followers of
the Star of Bethlehem wise men,"
and, although the accepted belief is
that they were wealthy merchants, it
may be that st. Luke refers to the
same visitors when he tells of the
shepherds who came from watching
over their fiocks. Perhaps they were
poor and had difficulty in exchang-
ing sheep and their seasons wool for
the treasures they brought as the
first Christmas presents of all time.
st. Matthew mentions gold, spices,
frankincense and myrrh"-that in
those days were gifts for kings.
Even if poor shepherds, this ex-
pensive giving did not trouble them,
for they returned to their homes
"glorifying and praising God" And
probably they never let the anniver-
sary. of that time pass without lay
ing offerings at the feet of children.
Christmas Day is Children's Day.
Those wise men" laid treasures at
the cradle-side of the Divine Baby,
Jesus, with no thought of the small
est return; let us remember that
this is Christmas giving. We can
not think of that kind of giving
without merry heart; the sunny
face of the excited little receiver
comes before us and makes us smile.
So here is wishing you Christmas
giving, and if you have that privi-
lege you cannot fail to have A Mer-
nv, Merry Christmas.

A WELL KNOWN HOTEL

Mr.. McCleary was one of the old

ask for news items will tell you they
can't think of any. But in most
cases they expect the editor to think
of them all and criticse him IL he

is to give the editor credit for what
he does find and mention, and for
some things that he finds and
