Electricity vs.. steam.

Electricians and electrical experts
are very fond of declaring that the de-
cadence of steam power has already
begun. The Royal Academy of Engi-
neers in London is of the opinion that
steam will not, at present at least, be
superseded by electricity on the Ordi-
nary railroad. One objection to cleo
tricity is that it would take such an
enormous amount of power to operate
trunk lines of railway that it would be
unmanageable and insufficient. There
is as vet no known means of distribut-
ing the electric current in such a way
as to make it available. The steam To-
connective carries its power with it; the
electric must tap a line somewhere in
order to be effective. The proper
handling of electricity for long-dis-
lance power is as yet an unsolved
problem. Com binations of electricity
and steam work admira bly,. and short
lines, city transportation and the quick
and expeditions transference of people
and property in and about cities is
fully met by electric power. As a
street car motor il is an unqualified
success. and will before long entirely
drive the horse out of business. But
for through freight and passenger
traffic where there are long distances
to be annihilated. the steam lOcomo-
tive is likely to hold its own for many
years to come. N. Y. Ledger.

A SPECK OF WAR.
Spanish Marines Said to Have Landed on
the Florida Keys.


KEY WEST, Fla, Oct. 1.-Great eX-
element prevails here over a report
that marines from the Spanish cruiser
Condo de Venadito landed on the Flor
ida keys north of here to search for
filibusters. The Condo de Venadito
has been cruising in these waters
for some time looking for filibusters.
1t is the general opinion that
filibusters have arrived and supplies
been secreted on the keys north of this
city, and the Spanish cruiser has evil
IDENTIFY been trying to find them.
Fishermen who came in from the keys
yesterday reported that Spanish ma
rines had been making a diligent
search on almost every key where it
would be possible for filibusters to rem
devious. The keys belong to Florida,
and if Spain has a right to land search
ing parties on the keys it also has
right to land marines on the main
land. The state department at Wash
ington will be asked to investigate
and demand an apology from Spain.

Matthews will spend the last two weeks
in October in Ohio making speeches
for the democratic ticket. He has

HE LOST HIS OyERCOAT
But Mr.. Warde Delighted Normal School
Scholars
He Gives Them an Instructive Lecture on
Julius Caesar and Merchant
Of Venice

Frederick Warde, the tragedian, deliv-
cred lecture yesterday afternoon at the
Normal School, for the editication of the
For two hours Mr.. Warde entertained his
listeners with discussion of some of the
plays included in his repertoire, which
was both interesting and instructive. The
compliment paid to the pupils was highly
appreciated, as was manifested by the
frequent applause the distinguished actor
received.
Mr.. Warde yesterday afternoon directed
his remarks to the plays of Julius Caesar
and the Merchant of Venice, of which he
gave mastery analysis and complete
review. He introduced his lecture with
brief reference to the life and lineage
of Shakespeare, and by several well chosen
quotations, taken from the entire range
of the poets work, he showed the rare
insight and wonderful scope of the genius
of the great artist.
In discussing julius Cesar. Mr.. Warde
dwelt especially upon the characters OF
Brutus and Antony. He explained in the
simplest manner how Antony played upon
the ever changing emotions of the Roman
populace through the skillful use of false
hood and fallacy. In Brutus, Mr.. warde
said, the elements were so mixed that
nature might stand up and say to all the
world: This was man."
Tomorrow at p. m. Mr.. Warde will de-
liver lecture on Shakespeare at Music
Hall, the proceeds of which will go to the
Newsboys' Home. The School Board, at
the request of many parents, has permit
ted an early closing Of the schools to give
the pupils an opportunity to attend. The
lecture will cover two hours of time and
will commence promptly at 3 p. IN.
Mr.. Wardee was exceedingly unfortunate
yesterday afternoon. While he was lectur-
ing at the Normal School some thief
stepped into the cloakroom and stole his
