LORD sACKv1LLE's RUDENEss.
Mr.. Childs Amazed at . Demand for
Rent for che Shakespeare Memorial.

Seldom has An event Of like character aroused
deeper feeling Of recruitment in the public
mind, says the Philadelphia Inquirer, than the
action Of Lord Saekvflle, as manor Of STRAIT
ford-on-Avon, in making q claim to the town
council for entertainment and rent in respect
to the magnificent fountain and clock tower
presented as o memorial Of Shakespeare by Mr..
George W. Childs Of Philadelphia. Mr.. Childs
delicate sensibilities are evidently wounded by
the incident
Indeed, 1 hardly know what to say abou. it"
he remarked yesterday. s'The thing has come
upon me like thunderbolt from a clear sky.
had.no intimatiou Of il until saw this morn
ing in tho Associated Press dispatches the
account Of Lord Sackville's demand for rent
On the face il seems to come with i'll grace, but
in the absence Of particulars I hardly know
what to think or say"
DO you suppose that the action Of this gov
ernment in having demanded the recall Of
Lord Sackville as British minister to Washing
ton for having ,Interfered In American politics
by writing the Murchison letter had any infu-
ence in governing his conduct in the matterf"
Indeed, don't know" replied Mr.. Childs.
II am most surprised at the whole proceeding,
especially in view Of the fact that Lord De La
War;. who Is the head of the family, was one
of the most enthusiastic and active supporters
Of the matter. During the ceremonies attend
proposed toast to the President OF the United
States.''
On the contrary It Is possible that the
claim has arisen rs a mere Technically put for
ward simply to preserve the rights and protect
the state in other questions of property. 1t
appears that under the land tenures of Eng
land the fact that the spot known as Rother
Market, on which the memorial stands, has
been used as public market for over 600 years
does not destroy the rights Of the lord of the
manor. However the town may have the right
to occupy the ground for public market place
for ali time to come. but no authority to set
aside portion Of it for such purpose as the
memorial, without raising the question of the
reversion Of the whole property to the heir Of
the original owner.
Since Lord Sackville has offered to release
the demand for rent il the claim win be admit
ted there are some who are disposed to take a
charitable view OF his conduct and dismiss the
suspicion OF spite or undue mercenary advan-
tage. II such is the case 10 is a very unfortu-
nate and notifying circumstance that the in
cident should have arisen from the conduct Of
one known to have bitter dislike to Ameri-
cans as Lord Sackville has had since his recall
was demanded from the English government
by Secretary Bayard for the Murchson letter
episode. 1t will be remembered that Lord
Sackville, as Sir Lionel Sackville West. was the
British minister at Washington when he was
trapped into writing letter commenting on
Clevelnnds administration. 1t was made the
subject Of a scandal which resulted in his re-
call. Since that he has cherished little love for
the United States or its citizens

They Throw Up Their Hands at the
Command Of Gen. Duryea

About midnight Tuesday Gen. Hiram Dur.
yea, the Glen Cove starch manufacturer. who
lives in Garden City, LII, was awakened by a
strange noise. He armed himself and his two
young sons and the three made their way
down stairs. Gen. Duryea watched the figure
OF strange man move mysteriously about his
yard. Motioning to his sons to follow he led
the way to the basement Of the house. He
carried revolver in his right hand, leveled
straight ahead and ready to fire. The door
leading to the kitchen was closed. Gen. Dur
yea cautiously turned the knob and gently
pushed against the door. It opened an inch or
so and then slammed shut, as If some one we're
braced against it on the other side. Putting
his shoulder to the door he threw his entire
weight upon It. There was q crash and it fel'
to the floor in several pieces. The general
jumped back few feet into the hall. holding
his revolver leveled in front OF him. He found
that his aim covered the breast of a man.
Throw mp your hands, he shouted The
burglar didn't seem to have much idea of
complying with the request and the general
struck him under the ear with the butt of his
revolver and the robber tumbled over with the
general on top.
just at this juncture the door which led out
into the yard and which stood wide open was
darkened with the form Of another man. 1t
was the man OF the shadow As he entered
from this door the generals two sons entered
the Kitchen from the hallway door. and before
he could reach his pinioned pal he was frozen
to the spot by the cry, Throw up your hands, !"
and the sight Of glistening steel This burglar
threw up his hands with alacri,y. The party
had remained in their interesting attitudes
hardly second when q commotion was heard
out in the yard. The son who wasn't engaged
found the house surrounded by neighbors
They were headed by two town officers, who
at once relieved Gen. Duryea and his son Of
their charges. 1t appeared that the robbers
had entered several houses in other parts
OF the town prior to their visit to the
Duryea residence, and the owners had given a
quiet alarm, got up a searching party and
tracked the two burglars to the trap where
they were caught. The prisoners were taken
before Justice Cloves Of Hampstead and COM
mitted to the county Jail at Long Island CITY
to await the action Of the grand jury.

EDISON'S BROKEN PROMISES.
He Was to Send Emperor Villa m a
monograph, But Didn't.

The Berlin newspapers refer sarcastically
to Edison as 1.-THE man of promises" 1t see ms
that twelve months ago Edison promised to
send the emperor aphonograph, and after ward
cabled that the instrument was on its way to
Berlin. His majesty invited a large party to
see the wonderful work of American genius,
but the machine did not turn up at the ap-
pointed time. and the imperial party and guests
were disappointed Of the expected show To
make matters worse several letters addressed
u Edsony by the master of ceremonies re-
NAMED Faanswered, which was terrible "Lese
Mateste' on the part of the great inventor.
Minister Gossler was treated in the same way
and the consequence is that should Edison ever
return to Berlin he will not be received at
court

More Rations Than Indians.

The news that the government census show ed
1000 less Indians at Rosebud agency than
rations were being issued caused no surprise in
South Dakota, as there is q prevailing opinion
among most Of the squaw men and others In a
position to know. that correct census Of the
Indians at the different agencies will show a
WONDERFUL shortage OF Indians compared with
the number that draw rations There in no
doubt. says a Pierre special, shat the Indians
are rapidly passing away. 1t IL appalling to note
the number of young Indians who are in the
last stages OF consumption. 1t seems that last
winter the grip gos hold Of them, the result OF
which is that nearly half of the indiana at an
agency are hopeless consumptives Another
season or two Of grip like last winter and the
Indian race will be no more in south Dakota. -

Killed by Lightning From a Clear Sky.
tuesday at O'Clock, at the Riggs farm. six
seen miles south Of Doland, s. D., while on the
straw stack at the threshing machine, Peter
Peterson was instantly killed by bolt OF light
ming from an almost clear sky. The stack was
about hfteen feet high. As the bolt struck the
stack q fame assembled SIX feet and it left a
hole from the top to the bottom of the stack
the size OF barrel with sides As smooth as a
wall Peterson was found dead on the stack
with his clothing all torn off, The deadly
hud apparently struck the top and back of his
head, tore the hair and skin from his head, ran
down his body, tore OF the skin and left the
body bleeding al over, with several holes torn
out Of the flesh. His clothing was ripped Of
and lay by his side burning. Stranger yet, the
straw stack apparently did not burn.

BERNE. Sept. 15.-Colonel Kuenzli, Com
mander Of the Canton of Ticino, threatens

reinstatement of the Conservatives. The
consensus of opinion seems to be that 1t

war.
The general situation remains serious. In
order to prevent conflict, 1t is very prob
able that the Federal instructions will be
slightly modified. The Provisional Govern
ment has consented to resign, and accord
ing to the latest Federal instructions an
other Government has been constituted.
