A CAT FOND OF PICTURES
The Colonial Masco Enjoys the Show.

Tom, the Colonial mascot occupies a
box seat. One Of the funniest things
that has happened in Manager Irons
whole theatri i.al career was the cpl
sode Friday night during the FIRST per
foTmance.
Tom, the big white and gray cat that
you always see sitting by the radiator
IN the foyer every night, was disturbed
from his seat of honor by the ushers
trying to find seats to accommodate the
vast crowds. He was seen to start
down the right aisle but nothing was
thought OF t as he has the run of the
house and is a great favorite with ev-
eryone. But imagine the surprise
when one of the ushers took lady
down to the right box, and upon enter
ing 1t he found Tom perched up on the
only chair vacant as big as life. appar-
entity enjoying the pictures of DR..
Jekyll and Mr.. Hyde. He seemed very
much insulted when removed from the
box and stalked upon the stage and sat
out IN front of the screen and watched
the orchestra for the rest of the show
Manager Irons says he has had many
maScots but this is the first time he
had self-educated cat. Tom was un-
ul a few months ago a regular street
tramp. The best collar in town with
many bells is promised him now. This
can be verified by several ladies that
occupied the box.

NO BELIEVER In OLD SHIPS.
Secretary Daniels Thiuks Money Spent
on Them is Wasted.

Secretary of the Navy Daniels has
disapproved the recommendation of
the turret board of the navy for the
moderrization of the main batteries
of a number of ships now in commits
sion st an expense of about $500, 600.
The Secrt tary said that the De-
partment would not spend any money
on reconstruction OF antiquated bat
tleships or any feature thereof.
The consumption of fuel oil in the
navy will by the end of the fiscal year,
June 30, 1912, it is expected amount
to 10000, 600 gallons. This is more
than thee times the amount consumed
in 1911, while in 1914 10000, 600
gallons likely will be used.
The number Of oil burning ships
in the navy is increasing yearly, the
advantage of oil as fuel, being con
sidered to offset the increased ex-
pense. In 1914 there viii be eight
battleships, 2S destroyers, Is subma-

CREEPING TO THE CROSS.
A Custom Of Ancient Kings Whose
Humility Could Heal Sick.

We are accustOmed to think OF the
evil rather than the good when we
think al an of ancient kings How
many Of us ever picture to ourselves
a king bowed in the dust creeping in
slow procession 20 the foot of cross
on Good Friday? Dragging royal
limbs and royal valvets over the pave
not TO gain merit for himself, not in
acknowledgment Of his own sins, but
because he believed through his hu-
mility he could purchase healing to
his sick people.
Year after year through many
reigns the kings and queens of Eng
land went through the unpleasant
ceremony Of creeping TO the cross"
in preparation of the conservation of
the Crampings, which were supposed
to protect the weaiers from cramps
and ito restore contracted nerves.
There can Se little doubt that the
belief in the medicinal power of these
royalty consecrattd rings was long as
faithfully held as any other medical
maxim. And that the king himself
believed q that virtue attached to the
objects for which he bad crawled to
the cross and said prayers and made
oblation in the service of consecrat-
ing these bits of metal for the heal
ing of his subjects, there can be little
question in the minds of those who
have studied the records of these
quaint services.
The precious metal of which these
rings were made was the Kings offer
ing &c the crcss out Of his own reve-
hues The household books Of Ed
ward ~ and others contain items of
expense fjr that purpose. So when
one learns Of the self-dt nial and ply
sical discomfort suffered by a king
for the comfort of his people. one is
a bit ashamed of having thought If
the evil instead of the good in these
old fellows, and wonders if this age
is very much more loving than the
ages we called dark. "--Jean Cabel
