t,ack vnan the Rambler cam did today
over tho Agricultural park course.
Itw was a typical Sacramento autumn
day. The sky was without cloud and
the temperature just warm enough to
enable the riders to put forth their best
energies. The mercury stood al SO de-
grees in the shade. There was light
breeze from the northwest, and this, 1t
was feared, would not allow OF record
breaking speed. but Ziegler was in fine
form and determined to make the effort.
II successful he would in few hours be-
come famous the world over, and il he
failed he conld try again another day.
The riding was done under the super
vision of the Sacramento Athletic
clubs wheelmen, and under the rules OF
the League of American Wheelmen,
which makes it the official record. The
Judges were H. A. Moore, A. w. Will
liams ana H. E. McCrea; timers. @.
Patton, Ii. r. Blair and George Kneier;
referee, w. A. Hubert starter. L. s.
Epson. The pacemakers were Wells
and Hall. Smith and Osen. Delmas and
Hamin.
Quite number of spectators were
present when the riders appeared on the
track and went their warming.up mile.
They came up fOr the WoIu unuer splen-
did headway and as the pistol cracked
the tandem men were almost flying
with Ziegler's wheel almost touching
theirs. The quarter was made in 27
seconds, but the pickup OF the aecond
tandem team was poorly done, and just
before the half was reached the men all
slowed up As it was tho time to the
half was but 81 2-5 seconds. The men
logged home from that point, and after
a rub down and a short breathing spell,
they again appeared.
Again the start was a fine one, and
when the quarter was reached in 26 80
the epeotators-- who had held their
breaths almost from the start--breathed
freely.
Hell do it sure" cried several ex-
perienced wheelmen.
'See the little demonl" yelled an
other.
"Good-bye, Mr.. Johnson" sa
The pickup by the second tandem
team was beautifully done. Not frac-
tion OF second was lost. and away sped

Just few days since | went to

and see if | could secure few of

out short time on the banks OF a
beautiful stream my thoughts wan
dered far off to the city, in fact |
was lost in meditation. When my
thoughts were carried to terrahrma
by something moving close around
me, I discovered around me very
large ratler with one hundred and
two rattles and twenty six buttons
moving gently by my feetl well |
felt lust as cool as if | was in an ice
factory and strange to say had
great drops of pers splration upon my
brow-a case of hot and cold. | left
that beautiful stream and when | got
to the city | found it took me 22a
seconds to get from the stream home,
a distance of 134 miles.
We have no news of interest in

are being greatly improved by paw
ing and politics are getting pretty
hot about town.

Session in Birmir CHAM,
June l4th 1894.
Whereas, the viatl issue in Ala

And whereas, the Jeffersonlan

selves on that issue, and are, with
Others, fighting the battles OF the
people against fraudulent election
methods;
And whereas, we have no State
ticket in the field;
Therefore, Be it resolved, that we

Reasons for Their Fears.

LONDON, July 27-Mr Fielden, who
is the owner Of the yacht Saide, and
which succored Geoiogist Oyen, Of the
Wellman arctic expedition, left at Danes S
Island, writes, referring to the reported
loss of the Wellman party and their
steamer, that he has learned from Spitz-
bergen that the ship Ragnvald Jarl, III
which the explorers sailed, was an Old
whaler fitted up as steamer, ANA III no
way suited to encounter the ice.
He believes there was no one possess
ed of practical experience III polar eX-
plorations with Wellman's expedition.
Carl Siewers, the Norwegian cllthu il
asst i'll polar matters, now i'll London,
who wrote to The STANDARD to say that
he was i'll receipt Of advices from Nor
way which left little doubt Of the loss OF
the expedition, has been interviewed,
and showed bundle Of letters received
on Monday last from arctic sealers who
had returned to Norway from the ex-
treme northern waters They expressed
the conviction that all the members OF
the Wellman expedition We're lost an I
that Captain Nansan's Ship was ais1
crushed i'll the ice.
He Is Partial to Peery.
Mr. Siewers believes that the Peary
party will return i'll September, after
having sailed over the pole in M open
polar sea.
LII his opinion, Lieutenant Peary's
expedition was the only party, except
ing Jackson's, which was scientifically
planned.
The Nansen expedition was equipped
by the Norwegian Storthing, or nation
al assembly, in 1891, who voted q grant
of about $40, 900 for an expedition to the
north pole, and DR.. Fridjof Manson, O.
Christiania, the author of ''Acros.
Greenland" was placed in charge.
A specially constructed boat, the Fran,
10 tons. was built, and provisions and
fuel for five years We're stored on board

dozen men, sailed from Charova, which
is on the north Siberian coast, early in
August, 1898.

at Juger Straits, Dr. Nansen stated that

A STATUE OF CROMWELL.

In Mr.. Hale's address before the His
torical Society in the year 1869, he closed
by proposing that the State of Massa-
chusetts should erect statue to Oliver
Cromwell. He went so far as to give an
inscription for the statue:
OLIVER CROMWELL.
This man believed In independently.
He was the sovereign of England for ten years.
He was the fre of New En- gland
through his life.
This statue stands Ee-e till the E lglan which
we love, and from which we are I'm.
shall know who her true
heroes were.
Unless the Legislature takes action on
this propos al next January, it will be too
late; for in the House of Commons, on
the Doth of August, Mr.. Herbert Glad
stone stated, in reply to Mr.. Everett, that
no series of statues in the palace at
Westminster which did not include one
of Oliver Cromwell would be complete.
The Chancellor of the Exchequer, he
added, had consented to the introduce
ton of vote in next years estimate for
defraying the cost Of the erection of a
statue of Cromwell.
This Mr.. Everett seems to understand
what we expect of Everetts on this side
of the water.-COmmonacedlth.

ENGLISH CLERGY A. d. 1000.

During the first half of the eleventh
century there is good reaso for believ-
ing that the secular clergy, including the
parish priests in England. had never be-
fore been so numerous. Not only SO.
but that relatively to the rest of the
population they have never since been
80 rich or occupied so strong a position.
In the Domesday Survey hardly more
than LOO churches are mentioned. but
it is agreed on all hands that this repre-
sents very inadequately indeed the whole
number that must have been in exist
ence at the time of the Conquest. That
number must certainly haze run into
thousands. Every one OF these churches
had it's endowments in the shape Of
tithes and offerings, Every one had its
glebe.
On the other hand, the monasteries
had by no means recovered from the de-
vastation wrought by the Danes. Many
of the smaller houses had been entirely
blotted out, and it may be doubted
whether there were forty monasteries
worth mentioning that we're at this time

Port LOuis-Mauritius.

From the sea Port Louis has pictur-
esque and Oriental aspect, but the
streets are less so than one imagines.
They are wide, and resemble those Of
Cape Town. Numerous European shops
also line their fronts.
Lying behind the town is the Champ
de Mars. 1t is used as place of amuse-
ment, and opening into it are the streets
of Burbon and Corderie, while to the
left of the quays is the bazaar or market
place. 1t is surrounded by an iron rail
g, has several gates leading to the
principal streets, ard is divided into two
equal parts by Farquar Street.
A broad avenue also traverses its en-
tire length, lined Oh either side by COW
cred sheds. where the wares are exposed
Fruit stalls occupy the upper end, and
here is exhibited marvellous variety
collection that would make the fruitsell-
els OF the West mad with envy. Plan
tains in great yellow heaps are side by
side with custard apples, alligator pears,
mangoes. pineapples, and others too nu
merous to mention. Mangoes are the
most esteemed by Europeans. The low
er market contains the butchers shops,
where fowl, fish, and kid are conspicuous.
