A wheelman on His Rounds

Maine, where he turned his wheel
southwark along the Atlantic

sledeehammered Liberty Bell.

ARCoLA, Ills, Sept. 14-.The
liberty bell special train arrived
here last night, and while man.
ager Knapp was giving a history
of the bell and the guides were
hosting it preparatory to ringing
it, a man named Matthews brush
ed through the crowd and struck
the lower rim a hard blow with a
sledgehammer making three dents
in it and ran back through the
crowd. The bell was considerably
damaged. Manager Knapp said
he would trust to the people OF
Arcola to prosecute the william
who had so grossly insulted
American pride by striking one Of
its cherished emblems. Major Nc
William of the Fourth regiment
Illinois National Guard effected
the arrest and Matthews was lock-
ed up. A telegram has been sent
to United States Marshal Brinton
and he is expected here today to
take the prisoner to Springfield.
The citizens of this city are highly
incensed over the affair and will
doubtless lend helping hand in
the prosecution of Matthews.

KEMP, ON THE YACHT RACE.
Committee Did Right on the Foul,
Dunraven Did Right to With
draw-The Crew of Irish
Americans Were the
Trespassers,

LONDON, Sept. 14.-DiXOn Kemp,
the yachting expert, writing In the
Field says: "From the single in
telligible act of the cup race, which
reached this country, we are able
to understand with something like
certainty the happenings. The OBJ
struction of the excursion steam
ers, laden with frantic Irish
Americans, who do not know a
yacht from an oyster boat, was of
the usual pattern. 1t was de-
nounced by the club and the press
in a perfunctory manner, but what
was the use of this when the trans
Atlantic idea of sport is to prevent
its being carried out in the dull
routine of sportsmanlike methods.
The fact that the whole history OF
the cup, from the Initial race to
the last contest, has been a mere
pantomime of yacht racing, with a
sportsman on one side and a
sportman on the other. AS to the
foul, there is not much doubt but
that Valkyrie was in the wrong
and the committee had no option
but to disqualify her if the facts
were as now represented. All who
have the interest of yacht racing
at heart will rejoice that the COM
mittee of the New York Yacht club
firmly and fearlessly upheld the
rule of the road, as they did in the
Puritan case a decade ago. Thurs
day the rabble maintained the pam
tomimic character of racing of
Sandy Hook. Dunraven very
properly decided not to continue
the contest.
The result will be that the venue
of races is what will have to be
changed. 1t was a brusque and
summary way of ending his enter
prise, but it was the best way, and
now that Lord Dunraven has real
lied the fact that fair contest for
the Americas cup cannot be Sc
cured, he not only stands on his
own dignity, but represents the
broad and square whole of British
feeling ON the situation. English
men, have been beaten too often in
these contests to be cowed, but the
accumulated unfairness of the
whole business and the impotency
of the New York club to carry out
its own conditions as to what is a
fair race, render it desirable that
no more such race contests should
take place between yachts repre-
senting Great Britain and the
United States. The whole condi-
tions require to be remodeled, not
ably that which requires the chal-
lenger to cross the Atlantic on her
own bottom, which means that
she must be staunch and well built,
while the Defender can be any
lightly rugged rattletrap, which
will hold together for such four or
five matches.n

JUSTICE DOING IT'S WORK.

The carpet-baggers in Hawaii appear
to be having rather rough shedding.
The government which they established
through force and villainy is totterlng
to its fall. 1t is not often that justice
is as swift footed as it promises to be
in this case. This whole Hawaiian
transaction is blot upon Anglo Saxon
civilization. A lot of Americans,
EnelIshmen and other whites carpet
bagged to Hawaii, squatted, went INTO
business, enjoyed the protection of its
laws, and prospered. They joined
unto themselves other white men who
had been born in Hawaii, misslona-
RES sons and others, nobody in the
whole outfit acknowledging allegiance
to the power which protected them,
bu, claiming citizenship in the coun-
tres from which they or their fathers
had come. They always held them
selves in position to squeal tothe home
governments if things did not go their
way. BY fleeing the ignorant natives,
and otherwise, they accumulated prop
erty, and having, like the gentleman
in the Old Testament, (whose name
begins with a J, but which we can not
at this moment recall, } waxed fat, they
| followed his example still further and
kicked. BY connivance with the
| American Minister to Hawaii zone
Stevens, whom God has since taken
they brought the terrors of an Amerl-
can man of war, lying in the harbor
of Honolulu, to bear upon weak
government, but one which was at
peace with the United States "and
the rest of mankind" and seized the
government under which they had
been living by sufferance, and which
had protected them in their lives and
property. The Queen and her prln'
cipal supporters were made prisoners
government by, of and for carpet
baggers was set up, with one Dole al
its head, and a republic was proclaimed
But they have not been permitted te
enjoy their goods in peace. The
island is honey-combed with conspira
c;es, and the insurgent party is grow
ing and has become formidable. Elk
Minister Thurston-a son Of a mis-
sionary-having been shipped back te
Hawaii from this country, to which hi
had ceased to be an agreeable repre-
sentative, sees the lay of the land a
soon as he gets there and advises ths
abdication of the rump government
and the restoration Of the monarchy
with the niece of Mrs. Dominis a
Queen. Mr.. Thurston evidently
advises this peaceable surrender as {
precautionary measure. Mr.. Dole anc
Others of that kidney he doubtless see
are in imminent danger not only O
being deposed, but of having thei
heads chopped off into the bargain
and he would make terms for then
while times are good.
Nemesis is on the track of the theve
and they are likely to be run dow
pretty soon. This Hawaiian affair, b,
the way, is another one about whic1
