convention, just closed, was today Sc
lected temporary secretary Of the nat
1onal Democratic committee. and the
understanding is that his appointment

Walsh's appointment was somewhat of
a surprise to him. as he had not been
an active candidate for the position.
He was selected Saturday evening and
was notified that he could have the
position If he wanted It,
Mr.. Walsh today met Senator Jones.
the new chairman of the national COM
mittee, and told him he would accept.
The two repaired to the office of s. o.

THE NEW JAPANESE MINISTER
Mr.. Hoshi Is Statesman and DipIo-
mat of Considerable Ability.

mat u COnslueFUOAc ABILITY.
Mr.. Hoshi Toru, the new Japanese
minister to the United States, is one
of the most prominent politicians in his
country. He is skilled in international
law, polished diplomat, like all his
countrymen, and a statesman of no
small ability.
Mr.. Toru is said to entertain kindly
feeling for Americans, but he thor
oughly dislikes the British. He has
what he considers good grounds for
his antipathy. When he was a young
man, he chose the law as his profess
sion, and in the early seventies went to
England, being one of the first Japa-
nese to enter the Middle Temple as a
barrister. On returning to Japan his
command of the English language and
his proficiency In law secured for him a
position Of responsibility in Yokohama,
where he served as one Of the first
commissioners of local customs
Soon after his installation he had some
difficulty with the British ambassador,
and although really not at fault was
forced to resign his post.
For the next few years he gave his
whole attention to making attacks on
the government through the press
Excluded from the columns of the Jap
anese papers he started organs of his
own, but these were so frequently sus-
pended and suppressed that he soon
sGuandered large fortune. Popular
sympathy was with him, however, for
when the imperial diet was convened
Hoshi Toru was elected by a triumph
ant majority. Two sessions ago he
was further honored by being selected
as president of the lower house, and
filled the position with dignity and rare
ability, his decisions being marked by
impartiality and strict justice, which
was something of a revelation to the
members of that noisy assemblage.

GIRLS RACE IN RAIN.
First Evenings Contest of the Fee
male Flyers Cut Short,

Rain knocked out a full forty minutes Of
last nights commencement of the six days
ladies' bicycle race, greatly to the disap
pointment of a large crowd of enthusiastic
spectators. However there was an hour and
twenty-five minutes of excellent riding and
the five contestants were all in good form.
Collie Bell was referee. Nelson and Baldwin
did not start. 1t was announced that the
former was Ill, and that the latter had not
yet recovered from the severe fall she re-
ceived at Duluth. The absence of these two
riders was a great disappointment to the
crowd. The starters were Anderson, Farms
worth, Peterson, Christopher and Allen.
They rode for three prizes, aggregating $780,
The grand stand was crowded and a large
throng filled the bleachers. The riders es-
pecially Christopher, seemed in the pink of
condition, and the local racers, christopher,
Peterson and Farnsworth were especial favor
ties.
At the start of Allen secured the lead, and
was off down the track like a shot. She
held 1t for the first lap, and then lost it to
Farnsworth, who made a squirt and took it
away from the plucky British woman. Pc
terson had bad luck for the first eight min
utes during which time she met three UNI
lucky falls, almost in the same spot. Each
time she fell, however, she was allowed tour
laps, according to the rules of the RAGS
and she lost nothing through the mishaps
At ten laps 1t was Anderson against Chris
topher, and the latter took the lead. For
ten minutes it was a procession, and then
Anderson broke the monotony by doing some
fast pacing.
At the end of the first half-hour each rider
had covered 10 miles and laps. The rec
ord for thirty minutes on a 12-lap track was
made at Winnipeg, being 10 miles and 2
laps, thus the half-hour record was broken
last night by laps. At the end Of the first
hour each rider had covered 20 miles and ]
lap, breaking the 12-lap record Of 10 miles
and 10 laps.
At this point Farnsworth was leading and
was getting ovation from the crowd, while
at her rear wheel Christopher was coming al
q hot pace. moment later and the two
had changed places. At "a miles Anderson
made phenomenal squirt and caught the
crowd by some clever riding She rode like
the wind, and for few moments it was a
hot race for the others to keep UP, but the
squirt did not last. Soon after this point the
rain commenced, and speed was reduced for
safetys sake. After the riders had been
on the track an hour and twenty-five min
utes the rain came down hard and the race
was stopped, leaving thirty-eight minutes to
be made up during the week Ten minutes
will be made up Tuesday night, ten Wednes-
Gay night ten Thursday night and eight ON
Friday night, leaving the finish on Saturday
night with an even two-hour limit When
the race was called last night each rider had
covered q miles fiat.

BLAcKMAIL THE BLUE FLOODS.
English Servants Learn Secrets and
Make Money Out of Them.

Make Money Out of Them.
No man is hero to his valet, neither
are there many landies who are consid-
cred in the light Of Venus as regards
beauty or Of Diana as regards pur-
1ty In the eyes of their maids This is
particularly the case in Europe among
the aristocracy, where, owing to the
immense difference that separates the
classes from the masses, persons of blue
blood are won't to look upon their do
nestle servants as mere pieces Of fur
niture, says the New York Journal.
Not that this implies unkindly treat
ment, for, on the contrary, in the old
world the lot of menials is infinitely
superior to that of their fellow serv-
ants in this country.
No servant can be long in the en-
p1oy of patron in any intimate capac-
ity without sooner or later discovering
some of the secrets Of the latter. These
secrets need not, of course, be neces-
sarily Of a criminal character. Very
often they are Of nature that would
give rise to nothing but ridicule if laid
bare to the public; but, whatever they
may happen to be, the employer breads
their being divulged, and a servant
needs to possess loyalty and principle
altogether above his condition not to
turn to his or her own advantage this
fear.
The records Of the divorce courts go
to show that nearly every suit is based
upon the testimony of servants. 1t is
but the other day that an English bar
onet. Sir Henry Meredith, secured a
decree against his lovely young wife,
based upon the evidence of her lady
ships maid. The latter had accompa-
MED her mistress upon a trip across
the Atlantic, but on setting foot on
American soil she developed ouch a
spirit of independence and insubordina-
ton as to incur the displeasure of her
kind hearted mistress. On being
threatened with dismissal in the event
of her continuing to show herself re-
fractory, she responded with a menace
Of divulging to Sir Henry certain indis-
cretions of conduct of Lady Meredith.
Like so many other Europeans of title,
Lady Meredyth treated these threats
with the utmost contempt and turned
her maid out of doors, paying her. how
ever, her passage back to England. The
girl no sooner reached London than she
