DON'T WANT TO MEET HIM.
shea Seems to Be Afraid of the Kenosha
Pool Player

In a recent interview James Shea, Of
Milwaukee, declines to meet Peter
Schmitt, of Kenosha, in series of pool
games, at the present time. Shea claims
that he is not in good condition, but as
soon as he acquires his old form he
saws that he will be glad to accommo-
date the Kenosha player. If match
is arranged Shea can find plenty OF
Schmitt money in this city.

If John Bull is really behind that
sensational protest against the Nicara
qua canal bill, made to Secretary Olney
bv the Minister of the Greater Republic
of Central America, and sent to the
senate by Secretary Olney, John Bull
has made break by showing his hand
too soon. OF course the protest, by
showing that the government of Mica
ragua already regards the canal COM
pany as having forfeited all the con-
cessions granted it by that government;
will kill the present Nicaragua canal
bill, but it will also go much further.
1t may kill the arbitration treaty re-
Gently negotiated between the United
States and Great Britain. 1t has been
openly charged on the floor of the SEN
ate that English diplomacy was work
ing through the combination OF those
three little Central American republics
to put England in a position where 1t
could either control or have share in
controlling the Nicaragua ship canal.
This may or may not be true, but SO
long as there are grounds for suspicion,
there will be danger that the arbitra-
ton treaty will be rejected by the SEN
ate. IF there is one policy upon which
the senate is practically a unit, it is
that the Nicaragua canal shall, if ever
completed. be controlled by the United
States, and if it be shown that this
question might have to be submltted t.
arbitration with the casting vote, in THE
hands of a European monarch, thei
goodbye to the arbitration treaty. The
senators who have openly protested
against the public clamor for immediate
ratification of the treaty, on the ground
that it was too important a matter t
be hurriedly acted upon, regard this
Nicaragua canal incident as a vindi.
cation of their position. Secretary OIL
ney, however, doesn't take that view
lOf it, and would not have been 81
prompt in sending that protest to tht
senate had he supposed that it would
cause additional delay in acting on tht
treaty.

DESIGNED by the Kaiser.

The German Protestant church in
Jerusalem, the tower of which was de-
signed by Emperor William, is to
be completed by the end of the present
wear. The edif1ce, whose construction
will cost 100000 marks, was originally
planned by the eminent German archi-
tect. Professor Adler, in 1875, but the
plans have since been modified.

EACH move of the new governor at
Madison but confirms the suspicion the
politicians got just before the inaugur-
alton, that the real governor was to be
Maj Scofeld. Several times he has
served notice by his acts that he was
elected governor to fill the position as
signed that functionary by the state
constitution. He gives new evidence
of it in the vetOing of the first bill
passed by the legislature now in SEES
sion. The bill provided That boards of
directors of corporations which shoul
have adopted articles of reorganization
or reincorporation under the provis-
ions of chapter 40 of the laws of 1891
might as a regular or special meeting
of. such board amend the articles of re-
organization or reincorporation without
requiring the authority or consent of
the members of the corporation. On
the face of it the law would give larger
powers to boards of directors than any
corporation composed of business men
would be likely to consent to. But the
law was FASTENED through both
branches of the legislature in some way
or other. BY vetong it as he did the
governor has served notice on the leg
islature to make haste more slowly for
the future.

Schoolhouse Lot Selected.

After day of back and filling, special
meetings, visits to vacant lots, argu-
ments long and short, the city council
have decided to purchase the Smith
lot on Abbott street, north end. 1t
was a question of ito build or not to
build at first but finally the council
agreed to build. Then came the selec-
ton of lot on which to build. There
were three lots under consideration.
Each lot had its particular friends in
the city council and school board and
there looked at one time like a dead
lock on the selection of the lot. Each
lot had advantages and disadvantages
that the other lots did not have and
some members thought that what
some thought We're advantages were
disadvantages and vice versa.
At Monday nights meeting of the
city council an order for the purchase
of one lot was introduced in the upper
board and tabled in the lower, then an
order from the lower board for the pur-
chase of another lot was tabled in the
upper board and things began to look
war-like. But the better judgment of
all hands in the upper board smoothed
the way for they voted to recede and
concur in the purchase of the Smith
lot. Then breathing vas easy. The
lot selected is on Abbott street with
225 feet front on that street and IS
feet deep. 1t will be necessary to build
new street from College avenue to
the building but it is understood that
Prof. Smith will build the street for
the consideration of $1,000 for the lot.
