The blue and the gray united I'M
der one flag, and that fag'old glory
is of the great historical epochs
of the country, and will undoubtedly
bear genuine fruits of peace and unity
for the north and south. As q whole
perhaps the reading public will not
lay any great stress upon the recent
commingling of the union and con-
federate soldiers in the south, but to
the careful observer it portends a
change in the feelings of the south
more in accord with the liberal and
broader sentiments of the north. The
bitterness of war has obtained too
much, north and south, largely due
to political partisanship, but partic-
ularly has this been the case among
southerners Those old soldier meet
ings in the south have done a great
deal towards overcoming these fool
ISL prCjudices upon both sides, and
today there is greater promise of
unity and good feeling than ever be-
fore existed.

And now the counties that loaned
seed wheat to their farmers, or Of
least some OF them, are haying trou-
BILE to collect the seed back. The fell
lows who borrowed are kicking at
the county officers for treating them
so meanly. Sich is life! This illus
trates a feature of human nature
which accounts for many kindly dis
posed and really generous people go
ing along attending strictly to their
own business, with little interest in
others. They have soughtto be gen
erous and perform some kindness for
some portion OF suffering humanity,
and have been cursed for their pains,
or had their generosity returned by
brutality V.

LONDON STOCK MARKET.

London, July THE brilliant season
of outdoor sports and the approach of
the election seems to have restricted
business on the stock exchange. The
only active market is for African min
ing shares. On all hands, however the
movement tends upward. The British
colonial funds, English railroads and
foreign securities were all strong.
There was considerable buying of
South and Central American stocks,
especially Brazilian, on the belief that
the deaths of Peixoto and Da Cana
would help TO restore peace. Bank
shares were improving with better
dividends. Chinese issues firm. The
Improvement in the iron trade and in
general business in America kept the
American market steady, the best de-
scriptions again exhibiting an advance
and finding favor with the English in
vestors. Canadian Pacific and Grand
Trunk advanced l to 2 points. Other
advances were Illinois Central, l, and
most of the others fractional, except
New York Central and Wabash, which
declined Il.

REGATTA WEEK ON.
CORNELL's PROSPECTS IN THE IN
TERNATIONAL CONTEST.
Francis Criticizes the management
The London Referee Predicts
That New College, Oxford, VIII
Win-Praises the Americans.

Henley-on-Thames, July Regatta
week opens with beautiful weather at
Henley. The town is crowded and the
river is alive with crafts of all kinds.
The crews are resting today. The
Cornell men received numerous calls
from other old Cornell men and other
Americans and members of the Henley
crews. Coach Courtney has been in
disposed. Manager Francis has made
many injudicious criticisms on the
draw, intimating that it was arranged
in favor of the English. He especially
complains of New college, Oxford, hav-
ing bye for the first round, and then
only having to meet the Thames OF
Eaton crews before the finals, while
Cornell must row with Leander and
then with London or Trinity before the
finals He said the Canadians had
been treated in the same way, but they
cannot see it. Mr.. Francis said all this
in the presence of the crew. There is,
of course, not the slightest ground for
suspicion.
The Sunday Times, reviewing the
work Of the different crews, says that
it is bound to admit the time tests
have shown the Cornell men to be as
fast as any on the river, but they are
badly drawn, and despite the fact that
they are undoubtedly a speedy lot,
Leander should beat them in their
heat. The referee predicts the New
college will be the winner.

SEA AND SAIL,

Bristol, R. I, July THE second
rial of the Defender was made today
snd proved satisfactory in every re-
spect. Captain Herreshoff and the
members of the syndicate who were
on board, after their return declared
themselves delighted. both with the
speed and the behavior of the yacht
The yacht Colonia was the Defender
running mate and the syndicate boat
fairly sailed around her. The Defender
also encountered several crack sailers
who were anxious for a brush, but who
were quickly left behind. She carried
her canvass we'll and could have stood
q much stronger breeze without Short
ening sail The only trouble of conse-
quence was caused by the misfit of
the topsail, which was too large. Some
little time was spent in cutting this
down. The hundreds who watched the
Defender exhibited great surprise to see
how her sails held the wind, and when
the breeze died away she was equally
surprising in laying up to the wind.
Another pleasing point was the re-
markable speed with which she can be
brought about. BY actual time this
feat was performed in Is seconds, or 10
seconds better than the best time the
Vigilant made in coming about. From
todays trials it was figured that the
Defender outsailed the Colonia by
about ten minutes in ten miles. This
afternoon the boats started in on
second trip and although the wind died
away the Defender held the breeze and
easily passed everything in the harbor
After the second race both yachts re-
turned TO Bristol.

Washington, July THE strained
relations between France and Brazil
over the French Guiana boundary ap-
pears to become more complicated
daily. Ehe subject is analogous to the
Britjsh-VenezueIa trouble in which
the United States has taken a hand
and in the opinion of officials here the
French contest with Brazil is rapid
ly assuming an aggravated aspect,
which may again call for the atten-
ton of the United States, as the Mon
roe doctrine applies to one no less
than the other. An armed conflict has
occurred in the disputed territory, be-
tween French soldiers and Brazilians.
The French government has demand
ed redress and the Brazilian congress
has passed a resolution couched in
sharp language calling for an eX-
PLANTATION from France. A cable re-
port from Brazil states that the gov
eminent regards the subject as so
MANAGING that a strict censorship has
been established on all information
regarding it. The armed conflict has
merely brought to a crisis the long
contention over the French Guiana
territory. BON countries CldlIn q
large tract of territory extending
north from the Amazon river and
equal in extent to what is usually
designated on the map as French
Guiana. Each country regards the
occupation of this disputed territory
as unWarranted. The fault for the
recent conflict cannot be placed.
French Guiana is wanted by France
as a convict colony for the deporta-
ton Of the worst classes from the
French prisons.
AS the result the population is a strange
mixture Of French, Arabs and Greeks,
and the rifS-raH OF Paris, and they are

ago one of these Adventures, a man
named eros, attempted to set up an indie
pendent country. He established a cap
1tai and called his government 'Inde-
pendent Guyana"
The boundary dispute has run through
two centuries and has no distinction of
being an article in the two famous trea-
ties-Utrecht and Amiens.
Brazil was originally a, Portuguese col
ony and Portugal insisted that it extend
ed to the French Guyana boundary now
shown on the maps. France claimed that
her territory ran down TO the Amazon

Pinzoon was fixed as the boundary. Por-
tugaI then claimed that this river was the
northerly stream now making the bound

Lake Geneva, Wis, July IA heavy
storm passed over here at 4:SO, which
unroofed buildings and demoralized
shade trees. The hail broke large
amount of glass and ruined corn, oats
and what little fruit there was. The
steam launch Dispatch was chartered
Just before the storm by party con-
sisting of Father Hogan and Miss Ho-
gan, of Harvard, ILL.,, and man
thought to be DR.. Franz, assistant su-
perintendent of the Elgin Qll) insane
asylum, wife and child. The boat was
in charge of John Preston, reliable
young man. They were caught by the
storm and the boat was swamped and
all on board were drowned. The body
of Miss Hogan was found floating near
Hayes park this afternoon.
This trip was the boats last before
the evening trip to this city, ana THIS
led the excursionistS to risk the waves.
The wind had already stirred up s.
heavy sea. The boat had not gone
half a mile when the hurricane bore
down upon the lake, and the white
caps were dashed into ocean pillows.
The hail and rain which followed the
first gust was the most furious ever
seen here. 1t was possible to see the
little boat from both landings, and the
boatmen watched the battle. The
storm was directly behind 1t. The first
plunge into the water drove the nose
of the boat far into the waves. One
big wave followed another, heating
upon the boat with great fury. 1t
finally rolled over on the side, turneJ
bottomside up and sank.
Miss Hogan's body was found about
Erndovm A most vigorous search
has failed to get a trace of the others,
and it is feared that they are with
the hull, held by the machinery and
engine against the bottom of the lake.

AFRArp oF POOR Lo.

Not a little excitement was created
in Newport, KY. by the stranding of
Beveridge's Wild West show, end by
the knowledge that fifty-five bucks and
over 100 squaws and ,pappooses were
likely to be turned loose on the town.
They were villainous looking lot, and
old stories of Indian massacres began
to be revived. The sheriff issued or
ders to saloon keepers not to sell them
liquor or give them any, and the colo
mel of the army post, near which they
are camped, has telegraphed TO Wash
ington for orders. They are pennness,
but he canot issue rations to them
without the consent of the war de-
partment. The colonel did not add to
the public comfort by limiting that if
the Indians should become ugly and
break loose. the consequences would be
terfible.-COurier-J Journal.

A DRY SUNDAY.
New York Saloons Are Tightly
Closed.

New York Saloons Are Tightly
New York, July To-day in police
parlance was a dry Sunday. Accord
ing to the police the saloons were
closed and the excise laws We're being
enforced entirely. This was not
strictly true. A stranger in New York
might roam the whole city
over without a drop to quench
his thirst, but man who
knew the bartender or saloon keeper,
or the at-the-door, had no rea-
son to get thirsty. The police, how
ever. made a determined effort to en-
force the law and doubtless the Sa-
looms were as tightly shut as they
could be under the operations of the
present law. Where it is believed that
laws were being violated officers were
stationed at the door and the saloon
keeper was either obliged to shut UP
or remain inside, while no customers
were allowed to enter. At the up
town hotels the hotel law was we'll OBJ
served All of the bars were closed
and guests were served with drinks
only with meals. The drug stores sold
very little liquor. Even the excursion
steamers sailing from the city closed
their bars. Altogether the determin-
alton of the police to enforce the law
was carried into execution with unex-
pected rigidity.
