FELTX POSTPONED HIS LEAP.
Colorado Springs, Col, Aug. 9.-Wil
liam b. FeltZ did not take his jump from
Pixies Peak to day, but it was not his
fault With the conditions of cloud and
fog it would have been II blindfolded leap
to certain destruction. Feltz came up to
the summit of the peak this morning,
carrying his immense aeroplanes with
him. Two homs were required in adj
iusting the big wings, but heavy clouds
gathered and slight snow falling at the
time convinced him that leap from the
peak would have been suicidal. The
leap was postponed, but Feltz is still on
the peak tonight, and it is said he will
remain there until conditions are favora-
BILE, when he vii sail down into Colorado
Springs, twelve miles distant. Great
crowds went up to the peak TO day to
witness the leap of the daring aeronaut,
and field glasses and telescopes were in
great demand. The crowds were
greatly disappointed on account of the
postpoEement.

OPENING OF THE ACADEMY.
AL. G. Fields Big White Minstrels to
Show Here August 10.

AL. G. Field and his big minstrels, as
usual, will be the opening attraction at
the theatre this season. For years the
AL. 6. Field mnistrels have been recog-
nized as. the leading lights in their line.
This season it looks as il this popular
manager was trying to- Guido himself.
"A glance at his company and the n, mes
enrolled on his banner certainly proves
his claim that the AL. G. Field big min
stre's is the largest Company in the
world. The names of more than seventy
people. are on the roster, prominent
among which the Cornalia family OF
ladies and gentlemen acrobats are found.
Their performance is entirely different
from all others and the salary they re-
ceive is equivalent to that paid to many
entire companies. Tho DeVeilliers,
French panton,ists, grotesQue dancers,
who make their first American appear
ance with this show. o. Judd Manola
and Laflet Miller, acrobatic comiques,
Ollie Young, who Made such a tremen-
dous hit with this company last season,
presenting still stronger act of ambi-
deXterity. Mr.. Young is the only one of
last years. company who has been re.
tanned. His tremendous Usuccess all
along the line induced Manager Field to
re-engage him for this season. Dan
Quinln still graces the interlocutor's
chair and has gone step higher, as his
name appears on the bills as assistant
manager. Billy Van, AL. T.. Field, Doc.
Quiglay, Phil Hecker, Comedy & Hyland,
Scanlon Sc Hyde, Eddie Fox with his vio-
lin and orchestra, Charley Minis and his

SHERMAN AS A CONSERVATIVE

Since he has been selected for the
position of secretary of state, Senator
Sherman has given forth some signs of
conservatism that were unhappily
wanting in him six weeks ago. He
has gone back on the Cameron reso-
luton, and appears to be in full accord
with Secretary Olney on the Cuban
question. All this is a matter of con-
graduation, for it gives evidence that
he has abandoned a tendency to jingo-
ism. There may be cited as further
evidence of what his foreign policy
viii be, so far as the annexation of va
rious islands, particularly the Ha-
waiian, is concerned, the concluding
paragraph from his "Recollections."
where he saws:
The events of the future are be-
yond the vision of mankind, but I hope
that our people will be content with in
ternal growth and avoid the complica-
tons of foreign acquisitions. Our fam
i;y of states is already large enough to
create embarrassment in the senate.
and republic should not hold depend
ent provinces or possessions. Every
new acquisition will create embarrass-
ments. Canada and Mexico as indie
pendent republics viii be more valuable
to the United States than if carved
into additional states The Union &C.
ready embraces discordant elements
enough without adding others. If my
life is prolonged 1 Will do all I can to
add to the strength and prosperity of
the United States, but nothing to ex-
tend its limits or to add new dangers
by acquisition of foreign territory"
If, as secretary of state. Senator
Sherman is actuated by the same spirit
that is here manifested. the country
will have no cause for apprehension as
to what the foreign policy OF the next
administration will be.

HERALD: THURSDAY. JANUARY rs 1897

to the habit of smoking cigars on the
streets of Rico. 1t goes without saying
that if the applicant were a man there
would be no question at all about his
right to a teachers certificate on ac-
count of his addiction to the tobacco
habit; but the county superintendent
seems to regard cigar smoking as an
evidence of questionable conduct on
the part Of a female school teacher,
and now the question must be settled.
If State Superintendent Patton feels
incapable of dealing with problem so
momentous we suggest that she refer
the matter to Attorney General Carr,
who is exceedingly fruitful of legal
opinions and always redolent of the
odor of tobacco himself. The question
is a very nice one, even though the
habit of smoking cigars on the part
of a lady may not be, and as the de-
cision in this case may become an
established precedent for the guidance
of future generations, we hope that 1t
will be considered with due elaboration
by the authorities that must pass
upon it. Perhaps the neatest way out
of the affair is to make a rule that
no one who is seen smoking a cigar on
the streets shall be given a certlhcate
as a teacher.

WHERE JUSTICE WAS SWIFT.

A standing complaint in this country
is the laws delay; there is only too
much ground for it, but occasionally
there are glorious exceptions to this
rule of delay. There was such one
in New York the other day.
Two men entered the shop Of a small
banker and broker in Grand street last
Friday and attempted 10 hold the
banker up. When ordered to hold up
his hands he ran to the rear of his
office, where his clerk was. The rob-
bers became frightened and left the
place, and the banker ana his clerk
started after them. They would not
have captured either of Them had it
not been for a young man who grabbed
one of the robbers and brought Kim
back; a policeman was soon on the
ground and he vas taken 10 the sta
ton. There he made Il confession and
implicated his pals. They were ap-
pretended. All were taken before
magistrate where they were arraigned
and remanded for examination. Later
in the day they we're indicted and
brought before the court, when the one
evidence and plaa1ed guilty. he
others also pleaded guilty, and SEN
tence was soon passed upon them all.
One was given seven gears, Two were
given ten years an1 enc was sent TO
the Eimira refo1matory. From the
time the robbery was attempted until
the whole gang were sentenced was
less than "a hours.
Such swift justice as this is rarely
possible, but when there is an instance
of it, it is worthy of special comment
and commentator. What a blessing
it would be if all criminals could be
caught and disposed CT in such snort
order This cannct De. bit there Is
nothing to prevent the more expeditions
trial of prisoners than is row had.
The complaint Of the people is not
merely against the laws delay but
against it's seemingly interrninable de-

PUBLIC CLAMoR.

Senator Hoar, who was never noted
for a sweet and mild disposition, got
rather testy over the arbitration treaty.
the other day. He does not like the
idea that the public sentiment of this
country shall have any influence upon
the adoption or rejection of the treaty.
Speaking on the matter, he said:
But with ell respect, it seems to me
that these gentlemen forget that this
is a treaty still in progress of negotia-
ton: that the senate of the United
States is a part of the treaty-making
power of this country; that its action
is a part of the diplomatic action of the
United States, and that it is very poor
diplomacy when we are still engaged
in such negotiation with England.
and the action of this country is still
inchoate, 20 have earnest, eloquent.
heated, impatient utterances coming
from the pulpit, the press and the col
leges, and all urging immediate action
upon the diplomatic representatives of
the United States. If it should turn
out that there is some undisclosed,
some unintended advantage to Great
Britain or disadvantage to us in
proposed treaty. which both sides
would be disposed to correct before
the matter becomes final and out of
our power, how is it possible to obtain
due consideration of our rights or de-
sire from Great Britain if there is a
great storm and tempest of public SEN
timent excited in favor of the instant
ratifying Of the treaty as it is? : =
