TheAmerican peace commissioners ex-
psct to spend ChriEtmas at their homes.
No more appropriate time for their re-
turn bearing the message Of peace could
BE- selected. Christmas Is day of peaca
throughout the Christian world. Il Is
ti,e day OF all days in chrIstenGom in
which the true significance Of peace is
realized. It Is the anniversary Of the
advent of the Prince OF Peace.
Peace Is not permanent, perhaps, but
the peace sentiment Is greater and
growing more rapidly among the ma
lions than ever before. Mutterings are
heard In the air occasionally In Europe,
mutterings of coming storms, but they
are ever delayed, sometimes almost to
subsistence, by one mighty power whose
military arm stretched over the earth
guarantees peace. Another great power.
Military power founded upon aosolnt-
ism, Is advocating universal dlsarma-
ment and the settlement OF international
dimcuItIes by arbitration and dipiom-

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
CAPON SPRINGS. w. Va, June Il. 1888.
The crowd has begun to gather unusual
ly early at Capon this season, and indeed,
to many June is the most desirable
month of all at this beautiful old resort,
which in its secluded situation in the heart
of the Alleghenies seems so remote from
the hustle and worry of the outside world.
Considerable improvements have been
made in the place during the past year.
The pool has long been considered one of
the finest in the country, and the eXhilarat-
ing as well as the curative powers of the
waters are such as to render the bathing
hours here of the same Importance as at
the seashore. The Washington colony was
the first in evidence this year. both III
number and Importance among the most
prominent arrivals being Mr. and Mrs.
Isham Nornsby, Mrs r. X. Evans, II. X.
Fulton, Horace NJ Fulton. Mr.. and Mrs.
F. C. Van Horn, Miss Elsa Van Horn, Miss
Dcra Van Horn and Cortland Van Horn.
The Misses Van Horn are both decidedly
attractive young girls, and promise to
be among the bellies of the season.
Among the young married women the most
admired Mrs. Evans of Washington
and Mrs. c. F. Nelson Of Winchester. Mrs.
Nelson has with her her beautiful little
son, Master w. II. Sale Nelson who is the
special pet and pride of the place.
Just now elaborate preparations are be-
ing made for the first Capon Springs con-
ference on Christian education in the south,
which will meet here June 2S and will con-
tinue in session until the evening of July
g. The movement has for its object the
educational and moral elevation of the
blacks and poor whites, and is of special
interest as the first of the kind attempted
in the south. 1t will be organized upon the
same general basis as that at Lake Mo-
hawk the Indian question. The idea
originated with Rev. Edward Abbott, rec
tor of ST. James Church, Cambridge, Mass.
The hospitality of the springs was offered
by Captain Sale, and the movement rapid
ly materialiZed under a provisional commit
tee composed of Bishop Dudley of Ken
lucky, Rev. DR.. Frissel, Hampton. Va;
Rev. A. b. Hunter, Raleigh. n. c.: DIR.
Dreher, president of Roanoke College,

intention of being present will be DIR. J. l..

and Mrs. John Eaton and Rev. and Mrs.
j. Z. Gilbert. Sister Ella, the Protestant
sister who has accomplished such import
ant evangelical work among the poor
whites of the mountainous regions of North
Carolina will also attend.
Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Little of Fredericks-
burg whose marriage occurred in Wash
ington Wednesday, are expected at Capon
in a few days. and will spend the greater
part of the summer here.

WHO OWNS THE LAND.
1t Was Made by the Reccding Of the
Mater.

\ case presenting some novel and inter
esting features has been argued before
Commissioner Hermann Of the general land
office. 1t involves the ownership of lands
surrounding Lake Malheur in oregon and
hinges upon the question of whether the
owners of the land down to the water edge
in 1877 can now hold lands left dry by the
recedinS waters of the lake The French
Glenn Live Stock Company is the appel
liant and claims under the surveys of 1877
ard laws Of Oregon possession of land tc
the water edge OF the lake. Since that year
there has been a suhsidence of the waters
and this company now claims the vacant
land as a riparian right. A large number
of settlers have filed entries for this land
in the local offices of the department. and
now the question is as to the title of the
land exposed by evaporation between 1877
and 1873.
