Secretary Foster Recovering from His Illness
Misfortune of Commercial Club Orators.
Srecial 10 tie Indianapolis Journal.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 27.-Secretary Foster
has been i'll IN bed for several days. and
those who have seen him say his condition
was much worse than has been reported.
The attack has been similar 10 that which
affected Mr.. Blaine during his New York
visit last spring. 1t is O coincidence that
~banquets of the New York Commercial
Climb have n depressing effect on public
men. 1t was ut q banquet of this club that
Secretary Windom was stricken and died.
Later. Mr.. Blaine succumbed To one of the
clubs banquets, ana his illness of last sum-
mer dated from that time. Secretary Eos
ter IS the latest victim TO the Commercial
Clubs banquets. He made his speech on
the financial question at the clubs BAN
quet last week, and was immediately
taken with the ailment which has since
kept him In bed. No alarm is felt as TO
serious results. although 1t is known that
Nr. Foster has been a very sick man. He
was able 10 SIT up to-day. and may he able
10 resume his duties in "a short time.

sonal business. and had no public interest.

PARIS, Nov. 27.-An autopsy has been
held on the body of Lord Lytton. who died
suddenly in this city On Tuesday, and the
result has just been made public. The ex-
animation of the remains of the noted dip
Tomato and poet revealed the fact that the
internal complaint from which he had been
suffering had been almost cured and no
trace of a malignant disease could be dis
covered. The physicians who conducted
the autopsy cay that the heart was weak.
They found that the death of the embassa-

UNIVERSITY EXTENSION.
The Subject Discussed by Gentlemen who
Have Given IL Much Thought.

nave oiteu ~ mucn Inou&uts
A meeting was held yesterday in the lecture
room of the Columbian University under the
auspices of the Alumni Association Of the Uni.
versity of Virginia. The object was to discuss
the subject of university extension, which ID n
series Of lectures on literary and scientific
topics by eminent lecturers Prof.. T..
Caben pres.ded and made an address. Remarks
were also made by Prof. Edmund J. James Of
the University Of Pennsylvania, DIR. J. C. Well
ing. DIR. William I. Harris, the commissioner Of
education; DIR. J. L. NJ Curry and ex-Minister
Loring. In the course Of his remarks Prof
James described the origin Of the movement
for university extension and most of the pro-
gress made mp to the present time TO DIR. Adams
of the Johns Hopkins University Of Baltimore
Dr. James then outlined the work done in Phil
adelphia in the direction of spreading univer-
sity education among the people. Prof Moul-
ton of Cambridge University, England, was in
vited to Philadelphia, and much was gained
from his experience. Courses OF lectures were
delivered in centers established in different
parts Of the city, and the total attendance dur
ing the past winter amounted TO SC, 900. Out Of
this grew the organization of national society
for university extension, with a view to estab-
fishing centers in all parts Of the country.

PRAISE FOR UNCLE SAM.

Compliment to washington-Made Guns.
LONDON, April 1S.-Col. W. Hope has written
to the London papers with regard to the United
States navy. He says:
'There is q general idea that the United
States are at the mercy Of the italian navy.
That is not my opinion. War is quite out of the
question, but il such q misfortune should
happen believe that the italian feet, after
having done. no doubt. great mischief. would
have to withdraw with diminished numbers and
greatly crippled.
81 spent the greater part Of last November in
Washington, where 1 was formerly attache to
her majesty's legation, and while there received
q very kind invitation to examine the new gun
and the navy yard. knew that the guns made
there were on the same general principle as the
modern English and French guns, and ex-
pecssd to condemn everything, but in the end
abominable workmanship OF our English guns
Is carefully avoided, with the result that unlike
the Elswick and Woolwich guns, the Washing
ton guns can be thoroughly relied upon to do
what is professed for them. This Is large
statement, for the Eswick and Woolwich guns
cannot be relied upon to do more than so TO rs
per cent Of what they are professed to do.
The Washington gun factory 10 perfect, the
lathes superior to any in the country and they
work faster.
1.-THE secret Of the good workmanship lies In
fastening the responsibility for everythin upon
some official by name. Here in happy England
the system ID that no one shall be responsible
for anything. The codntry is % soft, 90 indo-
lent, % ignorant, rich and % careless that it
is perfectly contented with floating down the
stream gaily to coming disaster, when the
awakening win be too late; but wise old Uncle
Sam insists upon some one naval oficer being
responsible BY name for each individual thing.
All these officers being on the active list Of the
navy, their own lives may depend. the next
year, on the carefulness Of their work this year.
II 10 then no wonder that not one Of the wash
ington guns ever has burst or failed 10 DO what
IL was Intended 10 do"

The gFandest of all the rivers of Arizona, whether we consider its volume, its length or the extent of country which it drains, is beyond all question, the Colorado of the West. Indeed, except the Colum- bia, it is by far the largest river that flows into the Pacific Ocean.
 It takes it's rise in the Wind River chain of the Rocky noun tains, about 12,000 feet above the sea level, and until it's junction with the Grand River in Southeast ern Utah, it is known as the Green River. From that point until 1t debouches into the Gulf of Califor- nia, it is called the Colorado. Its course is southwesterly until 1t reaches the mouth of the Virgen, when 1t turns its course almost due south and continues to flow in the same direction until 1t reaches the Gulf. It's other principal tributary is the San Juan, which joins 1t above the entrance of the Grand Canon. The whole length of the river is over 1,500 miles, and the area drained by it is computed to be larger than New England, Penn sylyania and Virginia combined. It is not 8 good stream for com mercial purposes on account of it's channel continually shifting, al- though it is navigable for boats of light draught for about GOO miles. It drains the whole territory of Arizona, though within the limits of the territory it receives only two tributaries of any great size-the little Colorado and the Gila-- Phoenix Gazette.
