Conversations with Gladstone.

In the mass OF Gladstone literature which has
seen the light since the statesman's death one
little book deserves p> rticular mention. We
refer to O volume comprising some 200 pages
and entitled Talks tcith Mr.. Gladstone, by the
Hon. LIONEL ToLLKMAoHE uongmans. Green d
Oo.L It is quite beyond the authors purpose
to enter into any sort OF competition with any
complete biography OF Mr.. Gladstone that may
appear hereafter he has merely undertaken to
contribute some material for such a work. He
Is SO modest as to describe himself as a kind OF
Boswell. who. after q chat with Mr.. Gladstone.
was at pains to set down what had been
said by his interlocutor. He does. however.
exercise the office Of selection and distribution
with the aim Of producing what he terms
an 'ethoRraph" OF his subject; that Is to say,
a photograph Of his moral and social physiog-
nomy as 1t presented itself in a long series OF
interviews extended overmanyy years. Mr.. Toll
lemache saw Mr.. Gladstone several times be-
tween 1855 and 1870. and a good deal moro Of
him between 1891 and 1896. Moro than four
lfths OF the book are allotted to the talks he
had with the distinguished statesman In the
last named period. Among the Bosweliian
canons to which In his capacity OF recorder
the author has subjected himself is a self-de-
nyinR ordinance which 1t is to be wished
had been observed by Boswell himself. The or
dinance to which we referis this. that Mr.. Tolle-
mache does not In general presume to sit in
judgment on Mr.. Gladstone except In cases
where intercourse served to throw light on
some misunderstood parts OF his character.
We should note that, the author being a Con-
servative. the conversations that he had with
Mr.. Gladstone seldom turned upon political
topics. Occasionally, however. the great man
would indulge In political "reminiscences. and
his anecdotal reflections on such men as
Canning. Peel, PalmerSton, Disraeli and Bright
are set forth with tho utmost possible minute
ness. For the talks with Gladstone which tool
place between 1855 and 1870 we refer the
reader to the book itself; we shall here touch
only on certain matters concerning which he
expressed opinions during the last six or seven
years OF his life.

who. born In 1888. was In 1851 created Baron
Broughton de OXFORD. From a school at Bris-
tol Hobhouse had been sent to Westminster
and thence to Trinity. Cambridge. where he
made Byron's acquaintance In 1900 he pub
lished q poetical miscellany. consisting OF sixty
five pieces. OF which Byron contributed nine.
In 18O9-1Oh he was Byron's travelling companion
abroad. and during 1914 he was much with the
poet in London. He was Byron's best man at
the poets marriage Jan. 2. 1879. and It was
TO him that the bride said. If I am not happy
it will be my own fault" He was the last per-
son who shook hands with Byron on Dover
pier when the latter left England in 1916.
Later in the same year he was with
him at the Villa Diodati. on the Lake
of Geneva. and travelled with him to
Venice. To him Byron dedicated THE
Siege OF Corinth." In the next year he
was again with Byron in the Villa la Mira on
the banks Of the Brenta. and at Venice. where
he prepared the commentary on the fourth
canto of "Childe Harold" which Byron dedi-
Gated to him.. In 1922 he travelled in Italy.
and at Pisa on Sept. 20 saw for the last time
Byron. whose parting words were: "Hobhouse,
you should never have come. or you should
never CO." In July. 1924. when Byron's body
was brought home. he took charge of the

That treachery is characteristic
of the Spanaird was proved cemur-
les ago. In the days of the cruel
inquisition, with its train of tyian-
mic satellites, the Spaniald exhibit
ted this trait to its fullest perfection,
and as we come down to the pres
ent day, the cruelty and treachery
of the Cas;illlans loom up before
the world as prominently as did the
villiany of Tammerlane when he
overran Asia and built tower OF
his prisoners Of war. Already
Spanish treachery is becoming .
feature of our present troubles with
Spain. Where ever there IL Span
ish blood, there treason may be ex-
pected to crop out, and noable
instance Of this is brought TO lirht
i'm the letter written by a Spanish
American woman of Santa Cruz,
Cal, to Premier Sagasta, of Spain,
giving accurate information OF our
western coast defences and assuring
him that there will be hearty coop
eration, on the part of Spaniards in
that state, with any movement that
our common enemy may make
along the Pacific coast. This wo-
man, i; is said, owes her present
standing, financially and otherwise
to the openings that her wealth has
found in the Urited States, but
this counted for nothing. Treach-
Iery was her natural resort when
1.-The test came, as it is the resort o1
every Spaniard. So plainly ha:
this been shown that it behooves
1.-The government to weed out every
man in the navy, or in any othel
responsible capacity, who carries
:, lin his veins a tincture of the Span
ish blood. 1t may seem harsh t.
Iadopt such course, but it is onl,
nece- sary to recall the destruction
f the Maine, and numerous othe

PETERSBURG, IND, May 1.-The
preliminary trial Of Frank Siple.
John Cline and Jacob Battle,
charged with poisoning +. p.
Smith, will not be held Monday as
was anticipated.
Judge +. A. Ely, of the Pike
county circuit court has called a
special session of the grand jury to
the charge against the
prisoners. They will likely return
indictments Tuesday or Wednes-
day.
The prisoners will waive prelimi-
nary examination ard will be tried
Friday in the circuit court.
Siple's relatives have employed
Richardson & Taylorto defend him.
Ii is trought that the defendants
will be tried separately. Cline and
Battle have not been able to secure
legal assistance and it is thought
that the court will appoint lawyer
to defend them.
Several farmers below town held
a secret caucus Saturday night, at
which it was decided to let the
whole matter rest with the court.
If the men are found guilty and
are given just punishment, the
extreme penalty Of the law, the
friends of Smith will be satisfied.
But if there is a miscarriage of JUS
tice the people of Pike county will
no doubt take the law into their
own hands, as they have often done
befo e when the occasion demanded
it.
Prosecutor w. Z. Cox, of Jasper,
will arrive Monday and personally
take charge of the investigation be-
fore the grand jury. Prosecutor
Cox is determined to sift the matter
to the bottom.

Forty tons of wreckage from the
Maine is the sad sum total Of the
effortsto retrieve the sunken war
ship from the hungry waters Of Ha-
vana harbor. We do not know
what the government will do with
it, but we feel sure that $4,000
pounds of wreckage could be dis
posed Of to American citizens at
rates that would pay for another

The authorship of the much dis
cussed elmer Experiences OF q
Cabinet Members Wife," printed
in the Ladies' Home Journal, will
be revealed in the June issue OF
that magazine, when the name OF
Anna Farquhar will appear as the
author. 1t is surmised that the
domestic experiences described in
b Sc Letters were those of Mrs. w.
II. H. Miller, wife os the attorney
general in President Harrison's cabi-
net, since Miss Farquhar is known
to be a personal friend of the Miller
family, and to have spent consider
able time with them in Washington
during their official residence there.
The author of these letters was
born and raised in indianapolis, in
neighborly relations with the Har
rison and Miller families, but fol
ten years past she has lived a
studious professional life in New
York, London and Boston. She il
now connected with the editorial
staff Of the Boston Transcript. In
addition to her cabinet Member
Wife" letters she has published one
novel, "A Singers Heart" and
another one is about to be issued.
She is young woman, exceedingly
clever, and only her closest friend:

the Washington letters which have
