naut and admirer of Prof. Andree, He
believes that Andree will solve the
north pole problem, and he thinks that
it will be just as easy to reach the ia
nous Klondyke region by balloon.
'It is the best and quickest way to
reach the gold fields of Alaska" said
Prof Wells, "and l propose to con-
struct balloon that can be propelled
at great rate Of speed and can be
utilized to live in after the gold fields
have been reached. The ballon will cost

Prof. Wells is the ST. Louisan who
offered to carry war supplies to the Gu
bans by balloon. He has had q varied
experience in ballooning, and says that
he has made many ascensions more
dangerous than would be a trip to the

Knoxville, Tenn, July 24.-W. B.
Slime, wanted in Slayton, MINI. on the
charge of defrauding the county, was
arrested tonight by Knoxville police.
Slime was for years county clerk, and
later was clerk of the Minnesota state
legislature. He is quite o prominent

with stealing is 800, and there was a
reward of $50 offered for his arrest.
Slime says that he is the man wanted,
but denies that he is a defaulter. He
says that he will not go back without
requisition papers and will contest the
issuance of such papers.
At the time of his arrest he was en-

ture, she at once recognized him and
learned where he was stopping. She
informed her brother and the arrest

Before 1t Wore HandcuiFs.

Knoxville Tribune: One of the most
rabid and uncompromising goldbug
organs is the Louisville Courier j our
nal. 1t exeels all others in its bitter
ness, vindictiyeness and its denuncia-
tion of democrats. Yet before the Cou-
rier ournal fell under the baleful in
iuence Of the money-lender it was a
bold and free advocate Of equal coinage
and champion of the rights of the peo-
pie it now assails with bitter invective
aud the language of one insane with
impotent rage. It has not been many
years since the Courier-Journal put
forth these declarations, which it is now
seeking to repudiate:
First-That the demonetization of
silver, which has prevailed up to this
writing, both in the United States and
Europe, has had the effect OF advanc-
ing the value Of gold about 40 per cent.
Second-That this has been accom-
plished by depressing the value Of all
other property to that extent.
Third-that about 40 per cent. of the
property and producing resources of
the people have thus been transferred
to comparatively small class of men,
whose stock in trade is gold invest
ments.
Fourth-That in the exact proportion
as gold has risen the burden of debt
and taxation has increased, and that in
proportion as property and labor have
declined the capacity OF the people to
pay their debts and taxes has dimin-
ished.
Fifth-That the silver discount is
creating bonus of more ::than 80 pei
cent in favor Of the farm productions OF
India and Asia, which to that extent
cheapens the wheat, cotton and va
rious other products Of the United
States
Sixth-That these lamentable condi-
tiOns have been produced by anti-silver
legislation.
Seventh-That they can be undone
and prosperity restored by pro-silvel
legislation.

Bryan and the Trusts.

Concerning the evils of trusts W. j.
Bryan in recent speech said
In the olden days if man starting
in business had sufficient capital, had
sufficiently industry and had sufficient
integrity, you might expect him to
make success of business. Not neees-
sarily so today. A man may have suf-
fcient capital; man may be indus
trious; he may be honest; he may have
business experience; yet in moment
he may find his capital dissipated, he
may find himself bankrupt. Why?
Because the trust will come to him and
hold out before him two propositions -
either ask him to become member of
trust, conspirator aginst his fellows,
or threaten him with bankruptcy on the
other hand. If he prefers his indie
pendenOe, he is given death. If he es-
capes death 1t means simple servitude
to the trust TO which he attaches him
self
1t is the province of wise men to fore
see. 1t is the sign of intelligent men
to prepare for danger before it comes
Immediately upon them, and / think
the American peple ought to be awak-
ened today to the danger that the trust
presents; that they ought to arise in
their might, and throw state legisla-
tion, as we'll as national, drive the trust
ont OF existence and give 1t warning
never again to set foot on American
soil. 1t can be done by the enforce
ment of the laws that now exist. If
new laws are necessary, they must be
devised; and if the supreme court finds
that our constitution prevents the ex-
termination of the trust, then the time
has come when we must so change the
constitution as to permit the people to
live themselves, even If by living they
must kill the trusts,

THE MINISTRY OF THE ANGELS.
Rev. George c. Needham Replies to the Critics
In Sermon.

New Brunswick, July 22.-The Rev.
George g, Needham preached on "The
Ministry of the Angels" a reply to
critics, at the Livingston Avenue Bap-
tist church this afternoon. This SER
mon was prompted from the fact that
his brother, the Rev. Thomas G. Need
ham, had been severely criticised for
his utterance Of week ago, that there
were no female angels. In part, Mr..
Needham said: "There is no sex among
the angels. In every place that it is
mentioned that an angel appeared, it is
always in the form of man, and as q
young man. and yet artists have always
given them the form Of a female with
beautiful faces and flowing hair, which
is contrary to Scripture.
"One critic says that female angel
was sent to Mary, the mother Of Christ,
to announce her coming motherhood.
He holds this idea because Of the del
lcacy of the mission. He is wrong.
The angel who appeared unto her was
the angel Gabriel. aud the personal
pronoun she" is mentioned repeatedly
in this connection.
"Another critic says that if there are
no females in heaven it will be monoto-
nous. What nonsensical idea. Angels
are not redeemed beings, nor will men
or women be angels. The angels are
the servants of God, and yet there is a
lot superstition and many people rely
on superstition instead of tradition.
The angels are created beings and they
were in existence when the world was
created, and are an innumberable host.

In a Coffin for Forty Days.

Boston, Mass, July 24.-Dr. I'll. A.
Mclean, well-known Presbyterian

necessary permit he will demonstrate

fer himself to be buried under three or
four feet of earth, and there he will re-
main for forty days without food or wa

will be no tube or communication with
the open air, such as has been used

sary permit Is granted for the constru,,

They have Jesse James also In Eng
land, robbers in the guise of money
lenders. Some of them carried on their
business in such a reckless way that
parliament was induced to make an in
vestigation. One of these Jesse Jam eses
was found who robbed at seven or eight
different places under az many different
names. One unfortunate customer bor-
rowed 305 pounds upon which after re-
paying 445, he was found to be still in
debted to the extent of 362 pounds.
That was business. The same Jesse
was in the habit of loaning five pounds,
which, if paid within week could be
paid five pounds and six shillings which
he called loaning at 25 per cent, but
which was, in fact, about 1000 per
cent per annum.

cence, is widow with six children, all
married, is 55 years old and still beau

The only trouble that spry Ameri-

drawback if he didn't happen to be pro
ficient in that language.
