Clayton of Rutherford. Services began

males. The sermon was delivered by Mr.,
Clayton and it dealt entirely with the ques-
ton of charity. The sermon was an able
one and very appropriate to the occasion.
BISHOP sTARKEY's ADDRESS.
Bishop Starkev during the evening made
a few remarks. He said:

WALTHAM, Mass, Sept. 2S. The biggest cycle record of them all, mile with pacs- makers, was beaten all 10 pieces by John s. Johnson of Syracuse, N.

THE CHINESE VICTORS
ACCORDING TO REPoRT-wHY THEY LOST
 IN BATTLE.


 IN BATTLE.
 LONDON, Sept. 28.-Captain Lang, a former director in the Chinese navy and supervisor of the ocean Chinese forts, said in an interview today in regard to the Chi nese reverses: ''The inherent conservatism and apathy concerning everything outside of China and the want of esprit du corps have had their natural results. As a mat ter of fact the Chinese never expected to have fight, and their supreme con- tempt of Japan is a predominant trait with them. Their seamen, are as brave as could be wished, but they have not the slightest patriotism. Their officers are re- gardless of almost everything but personal advantage, and have always wanted to eyade drill and remain ashore. They have hated Europeans and European ideas, and are insufferable, obstinate and conceited.
 H'There are admitted exceptions to this rale,3 however, especially in the case of Admiral Ting, who is conspicuously a brave and capable officer, whose lead could safely be followed anywhere.
 ''I cannot understand the alleged superb ority of the Japanese quick firing guns. The four vessels of the, Ching Yun class were admirably equipped, and am not give the Japanese the credit they claim. - Captain Lang ascribed The defeat of the Chinese, if they had been defeated, to the fact of their having lapsed from their high standard of efficiency since 1890. The only Europeans now in service in the Chinese fleet, he said, are acting in subordinate capacities. In conclusion he reaffirmed his belief that the Chinese had been the victors.

GOOD NEWS FOR COFFEE TENDS.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-The coffee ex- change was the scene of excitement today such as has not been witnessed for many months. The occasion was the perpendic- uiar drop in the price of September con- tracts. It appears that some dilatory hold CTS of September contracts, including @ mum Der of foreigners who habitually defer liquidation to the last minute, seut in or ders to close out September contracts. At the same time it was reported that 5000 to 70D0 notices had been started. Three bro- kers had orders to sell September. A decline of 4 of a cent or 76 points from the last sale of yesterday was the result. Sep tep Der, which yesterday closed at IA 5, oIened this morning at 13.80, next sold ut 13A0, next at 1895 and then at 13.30, after which short notice SeItem Der sale was made at 1850. After thS the market steadied up little, but the feeling on 'change is bearish, as a record breaking crop is predicted.

.Rioting in Rio De Janeiro for
 Five Days,
IN WHICH GREAT SLAUGHTER

 fulness of the News.

NEW YORK, Sept. 2S.-A special cable- gram from Montevideo says: Admiral Da Cana asserts that there has been rioting in Rio de Janeiro, lasting five days, accoin- panied by outrages on Portuguese mer- chants, instigated directly by President Peixoto, who melted soldiers, dressed as citizens, to make an attack on the pre- tense that they wanted to break up meet- ing of royalist conspirators. Rio, it is re- ported, looks like great military camp. soldiers patrolling the .treets. cavalry en- camped in the public gardens and launches patrolIing the harbor front.
 The number of killed is stated to be BPS, and ,213 wounded entered the hospital. Many of the injured were taken to their homes. Most of the fighting occurred near the water's edge, and many bodies were cast into the harbor.
 The damage to the property of Portu- guese, British and other foreign residents will amount to S1 800, GOO.
 Admiral Da Cana exhibited telegram giving this news. 1t was not addressed to him, but was in cipher and sent to we'll known Englishman here. The Brazilian government sent out a revised and author ized account of the riots to a London news agency and to the United States.
 Strict censorship is maintained. The soldiers and marines sent against the riot CTS fired blank cartridges, it is said.
 The British minister has asked for a guard at the legation and at his residence. This was granted him by order Of Peixoto.
 The legation is crowded with refugees, who, although promised protection by the authorities, are afraid to go on the streets.

MISS GEORGIA WHITE, Local Editor.

Once upon sunny morning
In this pleasabtest OF fans,
Started forth a fishing party
From the Legislative halls,
They were most uncommon jolly,
And they felt as free from rule
As a misehievous small urchin
That has run away from school.
In certain mountain village
1t is said that they mistook
Gurgling sounds made in a bottle
For The babbling Of a brook
Ana when these fire. water fishers,
In a Prohibition State,
Reached the Capital, their error
Was apparent in their gait.
Now in view Of what has happened,
The suggestion has been made
That the temperance instruction
Bill. which has been duly laid
B'fOre the men on education,
Be recalled and promptly then
Be referred without misgiring
70 the Fish Committee men.
