The courier. (Lincoln, Neb.) 1894-1903, 1898-02-05

In these days when so much attention
lie being given to the encouragement OF
patriotism among the children OF the
schools. it seems strange to read Of the
formation OF a new womar's organiZa-
ton. the "Order OF the Crown" which is
limited to Americans who are descen.
dants Of king. "This is not the limita-
ton that might be expected" says the
Harper's Bazaar. For according to these
who have studied the subject there are
more persons in this country who have
reason to believe they are OF royal des-
cent than in any other country in the
in the world.
The founder-genersI OF the new order
is Miss Henrietta Lynde Farnsworth Of
Detroit, Mich, who traces her aucestory
back in direct line to Alfred the Great

year. 1t was organized and has been
sustained for advancement and improve

membership numbers forty at present:
The ladies are all enthusiastic as to the
results Of the club movement, and every
thing is full Of interest. The basis Of
study has been history from the forma-

other lines Of WORK. This year We are

thl names of Willie K. Vanderbilt, Jr., and Miss Virginia Fair. If their mar riage should really take place, as is now quite generally predicted, 1t would mean a singular combination of mill lions. Miss Fair has been a great fla vorite and intimate friend of the young mans mother, Mrs. Oliver H. F. Bel mont. The young people differ in the matter of religious belief, but despite ali this it looks as if the California heiress and young Vanderbilt are about to make match of it.
 The war has worked wonders in the sign language of the streets, especially on the seamy side. There are Dewey, Manila, Philippine, Schley and Samp- son hotels, restaurants and saloons, the latest on the Bowery being the Mer- rimac hotel. War picture and relic shops are quite numerous, the most pretentious being in lower Broadway Everything in this line goes, apparent ", except the Dewey rug" They are a drug on the market, simply because people here declare that Dewey is too good a man to walk on.

FORT DOUGLAS BURNED.
Landmark of inc Early Days of inc
 Hudson Bay Company.

Vancouver, B. C., Sept 26.-Fort Douglas, an old landmark of Hudson bay days, has gone up in smoke. It took week to get confirmation of the news of the Fort Douglas fire, owing to lack of telegraphic communication. Fort Douglas was named after Gov ernor Douglas, One of the first factors of the Hudson Bay company ill British Columbia and governor of British Columbia when it was a crown colony.
 Governor Douglas chose the site Of New Westminster for the capital of British Columbia. There was a dis pute as to what the town should be called, and Queen Victoria was asked to settle it. The queen named the little settlement New Westminster, and it grew to be a city before it was de- stroyed by fire.
 In the destruction of Fort Douglas hundreds of relics of the early days are lost, including the firearms of the British sappers and miners who set tied in the country during the first gold rush, grandfathers' clocks. an cient fire irons and relics of early methods of warfare The entire town was destroyed, the only things left standing being two chimneys built with brick brought from San Francisco by boat and wagon, 1,200 miles away.

 One of the Rough Riders came into the office of Broadway hotel on Sat urday morning showing unmistakable signs of a hard night. He was as much dazed, moreover, as if he had never before seen the inside of such Q building, and he looked about him with an astonished air as he stepped out of the elevator. For a few minutes he wandered around, staring into every room with the same puzzled look. Af- ter 8 while it seemed impossible for him to refrain longer from making a confidant of somebody. So he stepped up to the clerk Of the hotel and leaned mysteriously over the counter. Never had such an experience in my life be- fore" he said, and 1 can't realize yet how it came to happen. Last night at i o'clock I was fighting with police man somewheres. I can't remember where it was or anything about it, ex- cep. that he was going to arrest me. That ends the first part of the night.

GOSSIP OF NEW YORK.

New York, Sept. 26.-The city woke up with start this time. Yesterday everything seemed to be in full sea- son" swing, notably the hotels, all of which were damned. The theaters and music halls are thronged at evening with westernerS and scutherners on their way home, but who always finger here for week or two to do some shopping and see the sights. One meets these folks in all sorts of places from Delmonico's and the Waldorf Astoria to certain old table d'hotes in the east side, which have lately become the vogue Here one also catches glimpse of the fashionable folk who drift into town for few days, put up at hotels and enjoy the lives of strang- CTS by doing" their own metropolis. Their town palaces will not be open until the week before the horse show.

A Nephew of Jay Cooke Gets Com mission in the Regular Army.

New York, Sept 26.-One of the most successful candidates for a commission in the regular army at the examination recently held in this city was Sergeant E. H. Cooke of Minnesota infantry regiment. Cooke was a clerk in a Minneapolis bank when the war begun. He is nephew of Jay Cooke, the finan- cial agent of the government during the civil war, and one of the most wide ly known of American bankers. Youn g Cooke intended to follow the business of his uncle. When war was declared, however, he concluded that the gov ernment might need in the field all the men it could get, and so he enlisted as a private in a Minnesota regiment.
 The regiment got as far south as Chickamauga, and there it stayed. Cooke was promoted to be a sergeant. He liked the life and made up his mind to remain in the service fl he could. He asked to be named as one of the candidates for a commission, appointed by the president from the volunteers and from civil life, and his request was granted. He not only passed the exam ination, but received one of the high est averages of any of the candidates. He was then commissioned and assign ed to the Tenth United States infantry, which left here early yesterday morn ing for Huntsville, Ala. Cooke, in the uniform of a volunteer sergeant, made application to the deputy quartermas- ter general yesterday for transporta- tion to join his regiment. Lieutenant Cooke is a brother of Captain George Frederick Cooke, Fifteenth united States infantry.

Warner Miller Tells Inc NanufaCtur- CTS Association of New York Some of inc Reasons Why the Canal Should Be Buiif-Worfh All If Would Cost New York AIone.

New York, Sept 26.-Former United States Senator Warner Miller delivered an address before the Manufacturers association or New Iork at it's head quarters on Montague street, Brook lyn tonight, his subject being, "The Commercial and Other Advantages 50 Re Derived by the Construction of the | roposed Nicaragua Canal" Mir. Mil Ter said he had ben trying. to interest the people in the scheme for ten years
 "The incidents of the past few mOnlhs," he said, have demonstrated the necessity of the canal as a means of defense. The people of the United States would willingly have paid all most any price had the canal been cut through at the time the Oregon made its greet trip of over 13,0Q0 miles around the horn.
 "The manufacturers Of the United States today hold an enviable posi- tion. By the returns from the last census the volume of our manufactur- ing products exceeds that of any other nation. We not only supply the home market, but can and do produce a large surplus for a foreign market. The Nicaragua canal would give a larger foreign trade than any other scheme that has ever come before the Ameri- can people. The upbuilding of the Erie canal has made New York what it is, the metropolis of the country. The building of the canal made possible the settlement and building up Of the west.
 3The building of the Suez canal gave Europe control of the trade in the ori- ent- With the foreign trade in the Pacific England has an advantage over us; in the first place by means Of the Suez canal, and in the second place that it is only 15,62O miles by way of Cape Horn from liverpool to San Francisco, while from New York to San Francisco it is 15,660 miles, an ad- vantage to Liverpool of forty miles. But if the Nicaragua canal were con- structed the advantage would be great ly in favor of the United States. Then the distance from New York to San Francisco by way Of the canal would be only 4.907 miles, saving a little over 10000 miles, while from Liverpool to San Francisco the distance would be 5000 miles, giving the United States an advantage of more than 5000 miles.
 we cannot look to Europe for a market for our manufacturing products because she is producing cheaper than Us. If we want to create market we must then look to the people who live in the Pacific ocean and not to those in the Atlantic. The people who live around the Pacific ocean number more than 500,000,000 They may be small consumers at present: but look at the future, and with the division of China with the concessions made for the building of railroads and the opsning of mines, is it too much to say that in ten years the market will grow larger in volume than all our foreign trade

That astonished the soldier almost as much as the sud- den discovery Of an envelope in the pocket of his coat. He opened it, to find inside the letter a five-dollar bill. Although 1 am foreigner" the note read, :. Frenchman can always appre- ciate and admire the gallantry of a brave soldier in any country. I have taken the liberty of seeing that you were safely looked after and have also presumed to make some provision for your breakfast tomorrow" The as tonished man put the letter slowly back into his pocket and looked at the bill. Then he indulged in a long and expres- sive whistle. After that measure of relief he set out to spend the money. and started, not for the dining room. but the bar.

MISSING SOLDIERS.
A Suggestion That Some Nay Be in the Insane Hospital in Washington.

Washington, Sept. 26. Following the story of the disappearance of six teen members of Pennsylvania regi- Inent, comes the suggestion 'dhat they may be confined in the government asylum for the insane, this city, as a large number of insane soldiers of the volunteer regiments are there without any record of how they got there or where they are from. There are about twenty volunteers there whose names cannot be learned anu about whom little informa--on can be ob- tained from the asylum officials. The war department has no record of them, and it is with the greatest difficulty that particulars of their confinement can be ascertained.
 One casa is that of Monroe Forgy Company B, Third Kentucky. F'orgy was stationed originally at Camp Thomas, where he fell ill He began to rave and was finally taken to thL division hospital. His regiment vas ordered away from camp and FOrgy was forgotten. Left in the ward, with no attention paid to him, he grew worse and as his command had gone no che seemed interested in the case until some officers of the First Pennsyl- vania intervened in his behalf and finally secured an order for his ship ment to St. Elizabeth's. He was ac- companied by a detail from the First Pennsylvania, and as the men could obtain no food from the commissary department they fed Forgy on what they could afford to buy and what the passengers gave them. After he had reached the asylum no attempt was made to communicate with his family, and they are yet in ignorance of his whereabouts or condition.
 Another case is that of a Swede who was made ill from drilling in the sun at Camp Alger. He lay in his tent in . delirium until his rawlings became so violent that Col. Girard had to have him sent to the division hospital. He was taken later to the asylum, and his case is practically hopeless.
 Still another is that of a soldier who was at Santiago. He became a mono maniac on the subject of Spanish spies, and was sent to St. Elizabeth's for treatment He has recently been released and is wandering about the city. Today he held up a surgeon he knew and talked with him an hour about the prevalence of Spanish spies in Washington. As the man is large and strong and suspects nearly every one of being a spy, he makes it very disagreeable for those with whom he comes in contact.
