GOVERNOR GEORGE R. CARTER OF HAWAII. Governor George R. Carter of the territory of Hawaii is a native of Honolulu and Is forty years old. He was educated at Yale, graduating in 18SS. He played three seasons on the varsity football teams and rowed two seasons in the Yale crew. After a few years in business at Seattle Mr. Carter returned

to his native Island and became manager for the Hawaiian Trust company.

Several years ago President Roosevelt a letter asking for information as to the plaints having been made. The president WORKING IN INTEREST OF A MEMORIAL HOME The Rev. M. A. Harlan Spoke At Centerville. BACKED BY METHODISTS. Centerville, Ind., Sept 10. The Rev. M. A. Harlan of Warren, In held a meeting Sunday evening at the M. E. church in the interest of the Methodist memorial home for the aged, to be built at Warren, under the auspices of the North Indiana conference of the M. E. church. This home Is not for Methodist old people exclusively but for the worthy aged homeless, Irrespective of church affilia tions. The initial gift of $25,000 was made by William and Ruth C. Chopson of Warren. The Rev. Harlan was appointed field secretary at the last meeting of the conference. He will visit every charge in the conference in the inter est of the home. ARE PUSHING SHIVELY He May Have to Be a Candidate for Office. South Bend, Ind., Sept. 10. Benja min F. Shively, who ran for governor on the democratic ticket In 180i. and was the congressional nominee of his party in the Thirteenth district in 1000, just now is trying to dodge the honors that are certain to come his way next year. He would much prefer being left to his legal practice, but the Democrats of the district are determined, apparently, to make him their congres sional standard bearer again. It looks now as it the nomination would be forced upon him. FAMILY FOOD Crisp, Toothsome and Requires No Cooking. A little boy down in N. C. asked his mother to write an account of how Grape-Nuts food had helped their family. She says Grape-Nuts was first brought to her attention on a visit to Charlotte, where she visited the Mayor of that city who was using the food by the advice of his physician. She says: "They da rive so much good from it that they never pass a day without us ing it. While I was there I used the Food regularly. I gained about 15 pounds and felt so well that when I returned home I began using Grape-Nuts in our family regularly. "My little IS months old baby short ly after being weaned was very ill with dyspepsia and teething. She was sick nine weeks and we tried everything. She became so emaciated that it was painful to handle her and we thought we were going to lose her. One day a happy thought urged me to try Grape-Nuts soaked in a little warm milk. "Well, it worked like a charm and she began taking it regularly and improvement set in at once. She is now getting well and round and fat as fast as possible on Grape-Nuts. "Sometime ago several of the family were stricken witn LAurippe at tne same time, and during tha worst stag es we could not relish anything in the shape of food but Grape-Nuts and or anges, everything else nauseated us.

T PUNISH THE CHICAGO k ALTON Reported It Will Go Free in the Standard Oil Rate Investigation. SIMS MAKES STATEMENT. SAYS THAT-HE AND BONAPARTE ARE NOT AT OUTS FEDERAL COURT RECONVENES ON NO VEMBER 24. Chicago, Sept. 10. When Judge Landis reconvenes the Federal court, Nov 24, the special grand jury empanell to investigate alleged infraction of the Elkins rate law by the Chicago & Alton railroad, will be discharged. The Chicago & Alton will not be prosecuted for its participation in the rebates given the Standard Oil company and for which the Standard Oil company was recently fined $29,240,000 by Judge Landis. There is not the slightest difference. official or otherwise, between District Attorney Edward W. Sims of Chicago and Attorney General Bonaparte. Nel ther Mr. Sims nor Mr. Bonaparte Is to resign nor are they to be censured by the president for the action taken by Mr. Sims when, on Tuesday last, he got Judge Landis to postpone further ac tion in the Alton case. Never Was a Misunderstanding. "There never was the slightest misunderstanding between the attorney general and myseltf," said Mr. Sims, at his father's home in Bay City, tonight, "I had received Mr. Bonaparte's letter of instructions prior to the opening of court Tuesday last with directions for rne to read it to the grand jury. Be cause I did not do so it has been said I was In danger of being removed." It developed in Chicago last night that the person in the greatest peril was ex-District Attorney Charles B. Morrison, now a special legal representative of the government. It was Mr. Morrison, so the information in structs, who, without authority from any of the departmental heads from Washington, gave the Chicago & Alton its promised nolle prosequi. Mr. Morrison has been East to con fer with Mr. Bonaparte, who is still his superior officer. What took place between them on Friday at Boston, as Horace Greely used to say, "would make interesting reading." For style and service buy your shoes at Humpe's. CHURCH WAS REOPENED.

THE TONGUE OF A BIRD. An Organ Which Varies Much In th Different Species. Few people have given thought to the subject of birds' tongues. Many, even of the amateur bird students, know little of the literature on the subject and still less from personal observation. Birds must use their bills as hands, and to some extent the tongues supplement such use. Thus nut and seed eating birds extract the kernel from the shell, which Is cracked between the mandibles. The full complement of bones of the tongue consists of eight. The shape varies considerably in different species, and the comparative size very much more, although there is a prevailing general resemblance. The size and development of the various bones control the shape and utility of the organ. Well developed front ones mean a thick, fleshy tongue, such as we find In members of the duck family, while small forward bones usually accompany a small tongue of less importance to the owner, sometimes little more than rudimentary, like that of the pelican. Among such birds as have occasion to protrude the tongue well beyond the tip of the bill the hind bones are marvelously developed and greatly elongated, for these are the bones on which the tongue is hung. The edges of the tongues of most birds are more or less fringed, this feature being most noticeable in thin tongues. Most birds have a greater or less number of papillae small fleshy projections, spinelike in appearance and usually Inclined backward on the tiDDer surface of the tongue. These are of service In working the food backward toward the throat. Some of the sea birda have very sim pla tongues, which serve but little purpose. The tongues of the honey creep ers have very fine and long feathering, while those of the woodpecker are long, Blender and pointed, and the roots of some species curve clear around the back of the skull, up over the crown. and their tips rest at the base of the upper mandible. With the exception of the sapsuckers the tongues of wood peckers are capable of great protrusion, and the tip is barbed. The sapsuckers, however, instead of having sharp, barbed tongues like those of other woodpeckers, have . brushlike tongues as a result of the degeneration of the bristles on their surface into hairs standing out from the tongue rather than pointing backward. Birds with long bills do not always have correspondingly long tongues. The kingfishers, with their dispropor tionately large bills, have short tongues The outer edges of the very long tongues of humming birds are closely rolled up into two tubes lying side by side, by means of which the birds are enabled to suck the nectar from flow ers. New York Post. Utility of Censors. "When Maxim Gorky dined with me," said a literary New Yorker, "he talked about the Russian censorship. "He said that in the course of the Russo-Japanese war he had occasion In an article to describe the headquarters of one of the grand dukes. He wrote of these headquarters, among other things: " 'And over the desk in hi3 highness' tent Is a large photograph of Marie la Jain be, the beautiful ballet dancer. "Before this article could appear the censor changed that sentence to, 'And over the desk in his highness' tent Is a large map of the theater of war " Detroit News. The Ostrich. In its habits, methods of life and prejudices the ostrich is one of the most curious creatures of the animal kingdom. It cannot be tamed, though It 13 easily trained to harness. When taught to race it seems to delight in a brush on the track or road with a horse. The gait of the ostrich is a lumbering sort of jog trot, which becomes delightfully easy when the bird Is traveling fast. Unhampered with a rider and traveling with the wind this muscular creature can outstrip any horse. Machinery and Labor. A generation or two ago men and women worked very long hours, and children had to work, too, In order to produce enough to support the workingman's family. The growth of capital and the employment of machinery have added so much to the efficiency of labor that long hoars for adults are no longer necessary, and the industrial employment of children under fourteen can be entirely dispensed with.
