AT THEsSTATE DEPARTMENT.

The Ministry May Forward the Address
And IL May be Transmitted to Illinois.
WASHINGTON, November 29.-NOthing
was received at the State Department to-
to-day from Minister McI.ane in regard to
the address which the Municipal Council
of Paris and the General Council Of the
Seine had asked him TO forward to the
President, and the Governor Of Illinois in
behalf of the condemned anarchists.
The communication will be doubtless
forwarded by mail and reach us in about
ten days" said Acting Secretary of State
Porter tonight. Whether Mr.. McLanc,
who is a gentleman ofdiscretiOn and good
judgment, will accompany it with any
suggestions is more than ] can say, but
should think not. Neither can | tell what
Mr.. Bayard OF the Prefident will do. The
mistake which the memOrialists doubtless
labor under is in believing that the Govern
or of Illinois is sort Of yiCe-regent and
subject entirely TO the Presidents orders,
when as matter of fact he is as independ-
cent of Mr.. Cleveland rs he is of the Gov
vi SdushIt
is that when the address reaches this
country it will he forwarded In Governor
Oglesby with polite note asking him TO
give it his respectful consideration: and,
really, don't see what else can say
about il.
SECRETARY BAYARD REFERS IT To Gov
ERNOR OGLEsBY.
Secretary Of State Thomas F. Bayard,
after reading copy of the petition in be-
half of the doomed anarchists, remarked
last night: This petition is being sent
through the wrong channel. An appeal
to the United States government direct
can do no good. These men have COM
mitted no crime against the United States.
They have, however, been found guilty OF
participating in the murders Of citizens Of
the State of Illinois The Governor of the
State is the only person that possesses the
power to pardon the condemned anarch
lists, and the petition should be addressed
to him.

THE WHITNEY ESTATE.


old IIickory's New Orleans Breast-Works
the Foundation OF n Fortune.
''Do any of You know what became
of the cotton that General jackson
used for broast-works at the battle Of
New OrleansP"
This inquiry was addressed by ono Of
New York's old merchants the other
evening to company of friends. not
one of whom did know where that fa-
nous cotton went.
"It formed the foundation Of ono
of New York's biggest fortunes,
went on the merchant. Thirty years
or so ago one of the millionaires of
this town was Stephen Whitney; mill
lionaires were scarce then, but Mr..
Whitney's fortune was almost worthy
of rank with that of John Jacob Astor
Whitney started out in life without
much money, but had made some pro-
grcss when the war of 1912 came. lie
was conservative merchant, with q
reputation for carefully considering
every enterprise tina: he entered upon;
and naturally, therefore, lots of his
friends were astonished when, at the
close of the war, he hurried down to
New Orleans and bought the great
piles of damaged cotton that had stood
between Jackson's soldiers and the
British bullets. The bulk of his for
tune went into the investment. He
bought every scrap Of il. There were
few people cognizant of this action who
did not believe it would prove disas-
trous, but Stephen Whitney put the
doubters quickly to rout The tons on
tons of cotton he paid the Government
two cents n pound for were soon upon
the market of Great Britain, and,
thanks to the effect of long-contin-
ued embargo, netted him something
like fifty cents upon every pound. There
was the great corner stone of Merchant
Whitney's fortune-a fortune that fig
urcs still on New York's tax lists rs
the Whitney estate. Investments in
New York real estate developed the
fortune. IN T. Times.

SCIENTIFIC HYGIENE.

The Great Advantage Derived by Its AP-

The progress Of hygienic medicine

But, rapid and elective as this prog

glen, are yet in their Infancy. We

the way Of adyancem mt Is to demon

A great advantage In the hygienic
treatment of disease is, that il docs

Of treatment OF a medical kind. The

The Solidity of Berlin.

Berlin is a solid city, for the Berlin
character is deep and substantial. Its
solidity is more manifest than its good
taste, though this is byno means always
lacking. Since Germany has en-
deavored to compete with Franco in
the markets Of the world she has at
tempted to initiate French goods, even
those into which art largely enters, but
with imperfect success. German cloths
are not equal to those of either Eng
land, France or Belgium. German
hosiery IS invariably poor. German
jewelry is honest, but not rs tasteful
Rs that made i'm Paris or in New York
and San Francisco. So with the inf
mite category Of fancy goods. A shop
window on the Inter den Linden does
not compare fayorably with one on the
Paris boulevards, either in respect to
quality of goods, elegance of pattern or
taste Of arrangement. Whether II is a
suit Of clothes. night shirt, nccktie,
or set of toilet articles. the want Of
skill in making and Of taste in design
ing is seen at glance. On the other
hand, there is no apparent effort to
make a thing seem better than it Is.

AN OSTRICH RACE.
Gigantic Birds who Moved at the Rate o
Fourteen Feet per stride.

Gigantic Birds who Moved at the Rate OF
Fourteen Feet per Stride.
l reminded tho doctor of n promise
he had made to show me foot race
between ostriches. We Immediately
went to broad, open space between
the ostrich pens and the house. One
of the keepers opened the door of one
of the pens. and in response to the
doctors call, two superb ostriches
came running to him. After caressing
the gentle creatures for few moments
he showed them a handful of figs, of
which they are extremely fond. Two
of his men then restrained the birds by
placing nooses about their legs until
he and myself had walked away about
q quarter of a mile. Then, at a signal
from the doctor the birds were rel, sscd
and the race began. 1t was n rare
sight. Ornithologists tell us that the
stride of the ostrich when feeding is
from 20 to % inches; when walking,
but not feeding, 26 inches; and when
terrified, from lll to II feet. II seemed
to me that in this race for a handful of
figs from their master, these gigantic
birds covered the last named distance
at every stride. Like the wind they
came, their great necks stretched for
ward and upward to their utmost
length, and their wings working.
They kept well abreast for nearly half
the distance and then one began to
forge ahead. He in>reased his lead
until within n short distance of us,
when he turned his heat, and seeing
that his competitor was considerably
in the rear, he slackened his pace, and
jogging up to the doctor received his
reward in figs and carcsses.-Los an
