Washington a Diplomatic Centre.


One more illustration of the practical adj
vantage and prestige won for the United
States by the able and friendly policy pursued
by the State Department IN its dealings with
the other American republics has Just been
added 10 the list of former evidences. I'm its
usual carefully prepared summary OF Spanish

Salvador and Ecuador. That paper,

nos. the Salyadorcan minister and senior Jose
Maria Placido Caamano. the representative OF
Ecuador. both Of them accredited ~ plenpo-
tentaries Of their respective countries 20 the
United States This is rather unusual
diplomatic achievement and n shows that
Spanish American representatives feel at
home in Washington. which they consider as
the political centre of the two Americas, and
the proper place 10 transact occasionally their
own international affairs. under the friendly
and hospitabe agis of their elder sister, the

Hospital Management.
New York World.

Recent cases of harm from excessive red
tape in hospital management ought to direct
the attention of the trustees Of ali our hospl-
tails TO one radical error in Their system.
Most Of the evils which are complained of are
due TO conditions created by the trustees
without intention and by the best possible
motives
Every hospital is. in the matter Of detailed
conduct. under the control OF a superinten-
dent. and it is the habit of trustees 10 select
for superintendent some man not doctor.
This man makes hospital rules and enforces
them. and the arrangement leads 10 c0nfu-
sion. excessive formality. embarrassment and
now and then. perhaps, TO cruelty.
The superintendent Of every hospital ought
10 be a doctor and capable one All the
questions with which he Is called upon to
deal require the expert Judgment Of an ex-
experienced physician. Even the business
management of a hospital has for its object
medical and surgical results, and layman at
the head of such an institution is scarcely
less out of place than "A surgeon would be IN
control Of a bank or "a clergyman at the head
Of "A railroad system.

The New Bishop.
(Atlanta Journal

All the people of Georgia Will join with the
Episcopalians of the State in the feeling Of
qualification at the result of the election Tor a
bishop Of the diocese 10 succeed the late hon
ored and revered Beckwith.
The new bishop. the Rev Thomas Gailor.
is young man. but in his short service in the
church has won q reputation beyond that OF
many much older men. An earnest Christian,
an able theologan. progressive and energetic,
DIR. Gailor is admirably qualified for the high
Office 10 which he has been called. The
EpiscOpalians of Georgia are 70 be congratu-
lated in securing so worthy successor to
their late lamented bishop But two names
were before the convention. There was no dan
ger OF a mistake. Had the choice fallen on the
Rev. c. G. Williams, OF Augusta. there would
have been equal cause for satisfaction. The
convention was given the choice OF two good
men. either of whom would have done honor
T. the church. We are sure the friends of
DR.. Williams Join with those whose first choice
DIR. Gailor was in saying that the convention
has done well.
Bishop Gailor will be welcomed TO Georgia
by the people of every denomination.

A Pretty story Connected With the Nomina-
ton of Brown for Governor.

~
ton of Brown for Governor.
New YORK, May IA pretty story goes
with the nomination of John Young Brown to
be the Democratic candidate for Governor Of
Kentucky in the coming campaign. Accord
Ing TO a Kentucky man who was at the Fifth
Avenue hotel yesterday the beginning of the
boom for Ar. Brown was made 10y his
daughter, pretty girl of eighteen or twenty
years
This is the story: Mr.. Brown was in
politics in his earlier life and represented q
district of the Blue Grass State in Congress.
After serving with credit he declined 10 ac-
cept another nomination and settled down 10
practice law Tie said all the time that he
was out of politics. but ne has daughter
who was little girl when he was i'm Con
gress While he has been prScticing law She
has been growing to be q woman, and has
fallen desperately IN love with her father
She was ambitious to see him again
in public life. but he put all her
urging by. Finally he was unable 10 longer
resist her appeals, and laughngiy sad II she
would manage his campaign she might nomi-
nate him for any Office she liked She at once
wrote ont an acceptance Of candidacy for
governor. He signed the document. but re-
garded II as a Joke. The sane day the young
lady visited Mr.. WattersOn and showed him
the written agreement of her father Mr..
Watterson was personal and political friend
of Mr. Brown and was charmed with the
young lady's action. RE assured her that If
Mr.. Brown would be a candidate he should
receive the support OF the Courer-Journal.
A few days later Miss Brown had the happi-
ness of showing her father an article in that
paper supporting him Tor Governor. The
Democrats in convention ratified the charge
and probably made one young lady happier
than she ever was in her life before when
they nominated John Young Brown last Fri
day afternoon.

w. NJ. Dance, of Lynchburg, Marries the Girl
Who Charged Him With Abduction.


LYNcHBURG, VA. May 19-lSpecial. The
Dance abduction case, heretofore reported to
The TIMES, which promised to be very seri-
GUS matter to Mr. Dance, has resulted to-day
much more fayOraby to both parties than
was anticipated. 1t will be remembered that
w NJ Dance was arrested and locked up in
the city jail several days ago upon the charge
of abducting Miss Eola Friedrich and subse
quenty refusing to marry her, and that when
the case was called in the Mayors Court the
defendant asked for continuance upon
the ground that his counsel was absent, which
request was granted and the hearing of the
case set for tomorrow.
This morning one of the lawyers employed
in the case, and who, by consent, represented
both parties. informed the mayor that an
agreement had been concluded which was
satisfactory TO both sides, by which the pro-
ceedings in the courts would be obWated.
Accordingly. a license was issued by the clerk
of the Corporation Court authorizing the
marriage of William Morgan Dance. a native
of Richmond, and Eola Friedrich, of Lynch
burg The services of a clergyman were
brought into requistIon. and the ceremony
was performed at the residence OF the brides
mother.
The Norfolk and Western is about to take
an important step which will add greatly To
its popularity 1t Will revise It's passenger
tariffs and put a new schedule into effect June
LIST On that date the maximum tirst-class
fare will be reduced from three and half
cents mile to three cents and second-class
fare from three cents a mile to two and
seyen-tcnths of a cent. This is cut
of over IA per cent. in frst-class
fares and of 10 per cent in second
class The reason for this reduction Is that
the head of the traffic department recOg-
nized the fact that the local passenger traffic,
which constitutes 50 per cent of the whole
passenger traffic on the road. had increased
enormously and was DESTROYS of giving that
class the benefit of whatever reduction might
Ia made in rates

The memory Of Saint Elizabeth Of Hungary
suffers in curious manner at the hands OF the
artist Calderon in this years Royal Academy;
Calderon's picture, drawings OF when had
already excited comment. Is entitled SAINT
Elizabeth's Great Act OF Renunclation,' ana
represents tho Queen knAling naked before
an altar, with monks and nuns IN the Dack-
ground. Obviously. the reference =
to the Queens taking the VOWS x
poverty and abandoning her "oriuy
goods. But why was she painted
nakedg In the excitement which the picture
has caused in London this is now explained.
Mr. Calderon read the account OF the re-
nuncation in the Chronicles OF Dietrich, ana
when he found the historian SAYING tnat siio
stripped herself bare he innocenty thought
that this meant not of earthly possessions
bat of clothes. Naturally great ouense mas
been given TO the Catholics, and the SUBJECT
assumes more importance from the fact that
the picture has been bought for the Govern
ment under the Chantrey beQuest.
