GAME FOR RECES3 AT SCHOOL Twenty or Twenty-Five Boyt and Girls May Participate in Pastime While Clasping Hands. This game may be played at recess with as many as twenty or twenty-five girls and boys taking part in It. All of the players except three clasp hands and form a circle. Inside the ring is the orchard where the fox, one of the players, takes his place. The farmer, another one of the extra play ers, stands on the outside of the ring and calls to another player, who is outside the ring, saying: "Bruno, a fox is In the orchard." Then the fox runs from the circle beneath the play ers' uplifted hands. Bruno chases him, first entering the circle and then fol lowing Just where the fox runs. All through the game the dog, Bruno, must imitate everything that the fox does just as players In "follow their leader" imitate their leader. If the fox JumpB up to touch the branch of a tree Bruno must imitate. Some times the fox does many stunts which amuse the ring players very much and which make it hard for the dog. If the dog does not follow he cannot go on with his part of the game, but must join the ring. Then the fox becomes dog and a new fox is chosen. When the dog captures the fox he becomes the fox for the new game and the fox goes into the ring. Then a new dog is chosen. When the ring is very large there may be two foxes within the circle and two dogs to chase them. ONLY ONE "BROMO QUININE" rtlat is LAXATIVE BROMO GUININE. Look lot the signature of E. W. GROVE. Cures a Cold in One Day. Cures Grip in Two Days, 2Jc The Word "Yankee." The origin of the word "Yankee" has been variously explained. Some authorities think It is a corruption of the word English, as It was pro nounced by the American Indians who called the white people "Yenghles." It seems first to have been applied to the British soldiers about 1775, as a term of reproach to the New Engend ers who afterwards adopted it them selves. Others hold that Yankee Is a cor ruption of Jankln, or John, a nick name given to the English colonists of Connecticut by the Dutch settlers of New York. The song "Yankee Doodle," was originally "Nankee Doodle," and was applied to Oliver Cromwell. Llauid blue is a weak solution. Aroid It. Buy Red truss Ball Blue, tue blue that's ail blue.

That does no' mean garden beds, but real beds o'n which people slept. There used to be mattresses, cushions and couches stuffed with dried rose lenves both in Greece and Home, and An tiochus, when he meant to enjoy him self very much, slept in a tent of gold and silver in a bed stuffed with roses. Those times are past and gone, but you still see in many houses baskets and bowls of dried rose leaves stand ing about. When Your Eyes Need Care Tth Murine Eye Remedy.

Real Value Unknown 4100 Objects to Be Shown to Public Many Others Are In London. New York Although the precise value of the Morgan art collection at the Metropolitan Museum was not ob tainable, it was learned that it had been insured by J. P. Morgan as executor of his father's will for $20, 000,000. This figure, however, does not rep resent the full value of the collection, but only the maximum of insurance procurable throughout the world on that particular risk in that particular building. Agents of the Morgan estate have been trying throughout the world for additional insurance without success, and have now come to the conclusion that they have obtained about all the insurance possible on the collection. It developes that the late J. P. Mor gan never insured his art objects or seemed to Bee any necessity for doing so. The $20,000,000 thus obtained in in surance, however, docs not cover the total insurance 'on the art collections left by Mr. Morgan. An additional $10,000,000 of insurance has been ob tained on the art collection in Mr. Morgan's private gallery on Thirty sixth street. Another $10,000,000 of insurance has been obtained by Mr. Morgan as trustee on the art collection in his father's London house at Princess Gate. This would bring the total of insurance so far obtained on the chief Morgan art collections up to $40,000, 000. The art treasures are to be placed on view for the American public as soon as arrangements can be com pleted, it was announced at the Metro politan Muesum of Art. The art ob jects, numbering about 4,100, will be exhibited temporarily in one of the museum's new wings, early in 1914, according to present plans. TOOK DYNAMITE FOR PAINT Witnesses Show Danger of Alleged Plot Against Strikers. Boston Another big crowd listened Thursday to the evidence adduced by District Attorney Pelletier in support of the charge that William Wood, president of the American Woolen company, and Frederick F. Atteaux, a dye manufacturer, conspired with others to "plant" dynamite at Law rence to cast suspicion upon the strik ing textile operatives. The danger of the "plant" was il lustrated in the testimony of Josef Assaf, a Syrian painter of Lawrence, in whose home some of the explosive was placed. Assaf said that when he opened the package he thought the sticks might be some new form of paint. He tried to burn a stick and then smelled of the scorched portion. Later on, he showed the sticks to a physician, who told him it was dyna mite. He intended taking it to the police station, and hid it for safe keeping in his bedroom, where it was found later by the police who arrested him. Allies Must Sign Treaty. London The growing displeasure in diplomatic circles of the great powers at the attitude of Greece and Servia found expression here in what practi cally amounts to an ultimatum which Sir Edward Grey, the British secretary of foreign affairs delivered to the del egates of the belligerents. The com munication, which was couched in strong phrases, without ambiguity, made it clear that enough time had been spent in futile discussions of the peace settlement and that the moment had arrived for signing the treaty. T. R. "Extremely Temperate. Marquette, Mich. Men who have been associated with Colonel Roose velt in public and private life, who met him on the Nile when he returned from his African hunting trip, and newspaper men who accompanied him on his various political campaigns, testified Thursday in Colonel Theodore Roosevelt's libel suit against George Newett, a newspaper owner of Ish peming, Mich., that the ex-president not only was not a drunkard, but that he was notably and extremely temper ate in the use of intoxicants. Coaster Brake Trust Fined. Rochester, N. Y. Fines aggregat ing $81,500 were imposed in the Unit ted States district court by Judge John R.

Berlin Count von Bernstorff, Ger man ambassador at Washington, is leaving Berlin to return to his post, after a hurried visit of six days to this city. It is asserted in authorita tive quarters that he was summoned to discuss with the cabinet two clauses in the American taritf bill, which are regarded with disfavor by German manufacturers, and also to talk over Secretary Bryan's peace plan and the San Francisco exposition. The feeling among German export ers is so strong against the proposal to tax imports carried over in foreign bottoms more than those carried by American vessels, and the provision compelling foreign manufacturers to open their books for investigation, that pressure is being brought on the government to protest more energetic ally on the subject to Washington. The German government believes that German manufacturers are strong ly inclined to boycott the fair, as they feel that if they have to show their books they will be forced to disclose trade secrets for the benefit of Amer ican competitors. Count Von Bernstorff is said to have used his influences to have the govern ment officially announce without delay that Germany will participate in the exposition. It is generally understood that the Berlin government is not tak ing Mr. Bryan's peace plan seriously. MILITANTS NEARLY MOBBED Police Charge Crowds Suffragette Bomb Fails to Explode. London Victoria Park, in the West End, was the scene of rioting Monday when trade-unionists and Socialists at tempted to hold a demonstration in support of votes for women. The crowd stormed a truck on which were Sylvia Pankhurst and other militant suffragettes, and dragged it outside the park. Mounted and foot police by repeated charges fially drove the crowd away. Men and women fainted in the crush and children were trampled on. There were innumerable free fights and am bulance corps were kept busy. Suffragists paraded with their col ors, the standard-bearers wearing red liberty caps. This caused more dis order. On Saturday Buffragettes attempted to blow up Wheatley Hall, at Doncas ter, owned by Sir William Cooke. The place was unoccupied. An unex ploded bomb and suffrage literature were found under a staircase. Arabs Slaughter Italians. Chiasso, Switzerland The strict censorship which the Italian govern ment has imposed on all news relating to the state of affairs in Tripoli and particularly with regard to the Italian defeat at Sidi Garba on May 16, has made it difficult to obtain exact in formation on the recent reverses in that territory. It has been learned, however, that the disaster at Sidi Garba was due to a well-laid plan of the Arabs. An Italian workman named Machiavelli, who had been taken prisoner by the Arabs, had been allowed to escape after being care fully primed with false information, which he carried to General Ganbretti. Instead of waiting to carry out a scheme of co-operation with General Tassoni, who was on his way from Benghazi with a stong force, General Ganbretti, on the strength of the workman's report that the number of the enemy was small, attacked them at once. Italy to Crush Arabs. Rome Twenty thousand troops have been ordered to proceed at the earliest possible moment to Sidi Gar ba, Tripoli, where the Italians recent ly suffered a severe reverse at the hands of the Arabs. The government is determined to crush the rebel Arabs in that district, where on May 16 the forces under General Ganbretti came into action with 10,000 Arabs, well entrenched, with casualties of close to 1000 men. The Italian commander, on the arrival of the reinforcements, will begin an energetic campaign. Lane Announces Purpose. Washington, D. C. To make the acquisition of homesteads as easy as possible in strict conformity with the law for bona fide settlers and genuine homemakers and as difficult as possible for dummy cntrymen or speculators is the announced purpose of Secretary Lane in beginning an investigation of the rules and regulations of the land office. A month ago Secretary Lane sent a special representative to South Dakota to investigate the specific charges against county land agents, and the above is the result. Proposals Come Rapidly. London At a meeting of the Cen tral emigration board at 13 Carlton House Terrace, S.

Small boys were collecting firewood, where il lad been tin-own out for them, at the side door of a large gro cery establishment cm upper Broad way. There was something of a rush to see who would get the most, and the proud possessor of one roller skate came out ahead in the scramble, says the New York Sun. Seizing an orange crate, he strapped his skate to one of the bottom slata and, filling the crate with wood, rolled it away on the four wheels of the skate, while others were left to drag or carry their smaller loads. Also Had Something to Praise. The other morning my four-year-old cousin and her five-year-old friend were talking of all the hand-painted china their mothers had. The five-year-old one said: "My mother has a hand-painted sugar bowl and milk pitcher and some plates," and she mentioned several other things. Then my cousin spoke up and said: "Huhl That ain't anything; we got a hand painted fence back in our yard." Ex change. No Chance for Him.
