tho windows where tho 'help wanted'
advertisements aro displayed. 'Any
old job' Is tho slogan of tho active
inombors of tho organization, who at
last realize that there Is 'nothing do
ing' with tho judge. The irony of it
all is that Gaynor, announcing his
slate of now appointments, in which
thoro Is not a single active Tammany
Ito mentioned, pinned a 'good boy'
sign on Charles P. Murphy, leader of
Tammany, characterizing him as a
'mlsundorstood man whoso only ad
vice to mo has been to appoint the
best men available to tho city offices.'
Murphy may llko this, but it has not
helped tho faithful whoso jobs are at
stako and who havo been notified to
get out by tho new heads of the de
partments, aud they are asking them-
solves why Gaynor went out of his
way to 'boost tho boss' when ho
turned down tho organization."
Cook's last trip to Alaska, I saw
Edward Barrlll at Soward, and as he
was an old friend, I gave him a
photograph of myself. Later I had
an experience with a bear that came
near ending my life,- and I was
chewed up pretty severely. I was
greatly surprised when tho Cook
magazine article was published after
ho returned to this country to see in
it my picturo, and the story of my
experience with the bear. Cook told
his party how he had rescued mo
from the jaws of death. As a matter
of fact, Cook was not within 150
miles of me at the time the bear and
I mixed. In the magazine also was
a picture of my struggle with a bear,
which of course was a fake."
At Kansas City, Mo., Judge Ralph
S. Latshaw, sentenced to death by
hanging George Reynolds and John
Williams, negroes, found guilty of
criminal assault. Judge Latshaw
decreed that these men should be
hanged Saturday, February 5. Ho
explained why he chose Saturday in-.
stead of Friday in these words: "I
do not care to desecrate the day by
ordering these two brutes hanged on
the legal hanging day. They do not
even deserve to be classed with, the
murderer, who must pay the penalty
for his crime with his life. It would
be an insult to these men who had
at least a spark of manhood in their
hardened souls to have such, brutes'
as these put in their class. I do not
care to desecrate the day by order
ing these two brutes hanged on the
legal hanging day."
