Of endurance between the repeal men
and the flibusters the advantage is with
the latter. The repeal Senators will be
compelled to keep practically their en-
tire number 10 the Senate chamber all
the time, but only two Of the hlibusters
on the floor can carry out their pro-
gramme Of obstruction, while their con-
federates rest. With this system Of re-
lief the fllousters can keep up their
tactics indefinitely, while the majority,
with no opportunity for rest, will soon
become exhausted.
The contest Of physical endurance,
which began Wednesday, will be a hu-
initiating spectacle for those who be-
lieve in our system OF Government.
That the highest legislative body Of the
country can not, or rather will not,
take a vote on a question Of vital i'm
portance to the people simply because
It will not set aside a fimsy aud idiotic
custom into which IL has fallen, is GER
tainly a startling commentary on u
so-caIled self-goyernment. That a clear
majority Of the Senate, solicitous to
preserve its traditions Of dignity" and
courtesy" should submit to a process
Of being worn out and starved out
rather than demand ommon courtesy
Of the minority and exercise It's righttO
vote on a question before it for its de-
clsiou, would be a most amusing illus
tration Of the stilted frumpery in
which the United States Senate envel-
opes itself II It were not such a total
disregard Of the rights Of the people
and the duties which the people COM
missioned the Senate to perform.

rain for their race tomorrow. TT the
signal office il is said that a storm is
coming from the south and that 1t VIII
reach here in time for the start OF the
race. There will be rain, q cooler tenn
perature and q wind with a velocity OF
from 10 to 16 miles an hour. Possibly
the wind will be stronger.
No matter what the weather, how
ever, both yachts are ready forit. Cap
tain Craufeld said to-day that he would
take whatever the Lord Almighty chose
to send, and make the best OF u. He
would prefer a good, stiff wind, but not
TOO much wind, as be wanted to show
what his cutter could do.
That Lord Dunraven has not aoan-
doned all hope was shown this morning
by the fact that about a ton OF lead
was put aboard the Valkyrie and slowed
away In her hold. This was done In tbs
hope OF getting her back to the weight
that she had before she came over.

him until policeman was called in. Then
IL was discovered that the unknown man
was none other than Butler.

RELIC OF OLD NEW YORK.
Found by a Missouri Farmer Digging
Drainage Ditch.

SEDALIA, Mo-, Nov. 29.-Charles T.
FritZinger, a German farmer, who resides
in Benton county, forty-flve miles south of
this city, while digging a drainage ditch
on his farm Saturday unearthed at a depth
of three feet a medal or token of the old
John Street Church in New York. the first
Methodist building in America, formerly
called the Wesley Chapel
Mr.. FritZinger brought the medal to Sc
dalia yesterday to find out something about
it and ascertain its value. The token is
made of lead and antimony, is two inches
in diameter and the thickness of a Bland
dollar. On the diverse side is an embossed
likeness of John Wesley, around which the
Inscriptions Founder of Methodism' and
THE World is My Parish On the reverse
side is an embossed picture of Wesley
Chapel, showing the ancient place of wor-
ship and the adjoining parsonage. The in
scriptions are Wesley Chapel and Parson-
age and Dedicated by Philip Embury,
october 80, 116S.'
II is possible that the medal was given
by missionary to an Indian, for the spot
where it was found is the exact locality
where the Osages and Kickapoos had their
last great battle, some time between 1900
and 1SU2. In running the ditch where the
token was unearthed Mr.. F'ritZinger found
a number of arrows, arrow heads, battle
axes. tomahawks and other weapons used
by the Usage Indians, which goes to
strengthen the superstition.
1t is known that at about the time of the
battle a missionary was living with the
Usage Indians and had great influence with
them
