NELSON DINGLETs JR- vravs and means
Congressman DingIey was born in Dur
ham, Me, Feb. 10, 1882, and consequently
escaped being a gift from st. Valentine by
= single day. Re attended the common
schools, and during vacations worked on
tie farm and in his fathers store. He
taught school near home for time and
then studied at Colby university. He
later entered Dartmouth college and was
graduated from that institution in 1888.
Ailured by the opportunities for advance
mcnt. held by the legal profession, he stud
led law ana was admitted to the bar The
profession, however, was not at ali to his
taste, and he soon turned to the more con
genial pursuit Of journalism. He invested
his capital IL the Lewiston Journal, which
he converted from a weekly to a daily
paper. The paper was a success in his
hands, and he still retains control Of it.
The moment Dingley took charge of the
paper he commanded public attention by
reason of the force and virility of his ut
terances. In 1862 he made his debut in
politics by securing election TO the state
house of representatives. After serving six
terms there he was nominated for govern
or of Maine and was elected in 1878. The
following year he was reelected and was
offered a third nomination in 1875, but
declined it. When William p. Frye was
advanced to the United States senate and
resigned his seat in the national house of
representatives, in 1881, Mr.. Dingley was
elected to fill the vacant place He has
been in congress IA years, has made a
name for himself there and at the same
time has continued to direct the destinies
of his newspaper. In the Fifty-first con-
gress, of which Mr.. Reed was speaker,
Congressman Dingley was a member of
the ways and means committee. He was

THE PURPORT OF LIS TOUR.
1t Involves a Plan for Revenge Upon
the Japanese.
Washington Special.

W dSnlnSIOn SpeCldl
The story circulates in diplomatic circles
that Ii Hung Chang's tour through Eu-
rope and America is merely preliminary to
the formation of general plan In prepara-
ton for revenge upon Japan for the humil-
iation suffered at the hands of the hornety
little empire year ago. The Chinese are
lay plans on "A large scale that reach far
into the future, and rely upon their chill
dren and children's children to carry them
out If ii seems wise to wait that long. To
a people with a history dating back 5000
years the time is a matter of minor con-
sideration. A generation more or less Is
a mere span. That they began plotting re-
venge before the ink was dry on the peace
treaty with Japan no one who knows the
Chinese for a moment doubts. That Lii
Hung Chang was relied upon TO do the
heavy thinking is believed by those most
the "fiowery kingdom and that he
thought II best to personally acquaint
full western civilization he had heard SO
much about, and to obtain few de-
tails before putting the finishing touches on
the grand plan is altogether probable. Ii
Hung Chang is surprisingly deep and far
seeing. and he does not want TO have the
browning performance of his life-some-
thing that will not bear fruit until long
after he shall have passed away-fail for
the want Of a little knowledge on his part
when trip around the world might supply
any possible deficiency. Hence his trip.
One of the prime essentials to the sue
cessful conduct of a war with Japan will
be facilities of the quick transportation OF
large bodies of troops and the ability to
effectively concentrate the boundlcss re-
sources of the empire. Failure In that
spect cost China humiliating defeat last
year. To provide against a repetition
of the disaster II is proposed TO grIdiron
china with railroads and one of the chat
objects of Ii Hung Chang's tour was to
acquaint himself with the operations of the
great system of Europe and America. He
has also entered into negotiations with
leading engineers of this country to plan
and take charge of the construction of the
Chinese system. Up TO date only 200 miles
of railroads are in operation in China.

the line; third mechanism for selecting
and conducting the matrices to place of
assemblage and adjusting them individuals
ly in order into common line.
The Commissioner of Patents finds all
these issues covering also a few minor
points in favor of Scudder and closes a
long opinion and decision follows: And
l find not only that Scudder conceived the
invention an organized product OF the
intellect as early as May, 1880. but that he
proceeded thence. under all the circum-

about forty years ago, and il was given at
Madison. in this State The circus was
known as Mabie q Crosby's. and Mr.. Tony
Pastor was the clown. On that memora bic
occasion he sang song entitled Joe
Bowers, and il raa about this way;
