Not Hia Kind of a Glns..

From a passage of Scripture that

appropriate for those who have un-
healthy ambition for great wealth or
fame. The text is |. Chron. 2O:6.7:
A man Of great stature, whose fingers and
toes were four and twenty, six on each hand
and six on each foot, and he also was the son

COL. FITCH TALKS.
Commander OF the Twenty first Kansas
says His Men VIII submit To Recent
Order-Rumnred Mutiny.

Lexington, Ky. Sept 23. Col. Fitch,
of the Twenty Kansas regiment,
when asked for a statement concern
ing the reported trouble over the re-
voking of the order mastering out the
regiment said:
1t is perfectly absurd TO think that the men
Of this regiment would do anything which
would bring the name Of their state into disre-
pute The regiment is made up OF substantial
men from the better walks of life. There are
"a school-teachers nearly as many editors,
several lawyers, doctors and men OF other pro-
fessions and you may be assured that Aaese
men will stand by the regiment through thick
and thin. They signed the muster rolls obli-
eating themselves to do service for the United
States for two years, and every man OF them
will do this.
Col. Fitch is backed by nearly all the
other officers. There are number of
non-commissioned officers who want to
get home to their business and fam
lilies. 1t is the same with many pri-
Yates. That the threat to cut the tents
TO pieces on next aturday night un-
less the original order stood to send
them home is carried out has caused
some uneasiness among them there can
be no doubt Several officers who have
in the ranks relatives and particular
friends visited their friends last night
and asked that the men be made to
understand that any such action would
cast an odium on the state never to be
erased. The men were told that should
such thing be attempted Gen. Sanger
would call out other regiments, arrest
and imprison them and to further
humilate them he would place over
them a regiment of colored soldiera

This L. the EventfuI Wednesday,

F that happens to-day which the peo-
pie of the United States devoutly
hope will happen. a new nation will
be born pretty soon. and the far-famed
city of havana will be it's seat of gov
eminent. The understanding is that
the presidents message will go to con-
gress to-day-that Is this mornings
news, although the string to 1t is the
bare possibility that something may
occur to change the white-house plan.
The forecast is hat President Mckinley
will recommend armed Intervention in
Cuba's behalf.
That will do; IL would do admirably
but for the hint in his mornings dis
patch that the president does not write
the adjective Immediate" before the
word Intervention. However. II the
president clearly recommends inter-
vention congress can easily do the rest
by ordering hat the presidents propo-
sition go into effect Immediately.
The way seems clear; all all OF for
eign interference is of; the scheme for
a concert Of action in Europe appar-
entity got lost on the journey across the
channel to England. II congress is no,
prepared to act promptly. it may never
hope to be. Doubtless the presidents
message will follow the routine usually
taken by state papers of the sort. but
IL things in the executive department
and i'm are as this morning
they seem to be, the American people
ought to know before Easter whether
IT is to be peace or war.

A Famous Claimant.

HIRTY years ago the press
throughout Christendom was
printing for the entertainment OF
eager readers the report of the trial In
London OF Arthur orion: he was the
celebrated ~''Tfchborne claimant" He
proved to be a thoroughbred rascal; his
death occurred a few days ago. 1t de-
veloped that he was an Australian
butcher: he undertook to prove that he
was the missing heir to a vast estate.
The Tichborne properties. in England,
yielded an income of $120,0 900 a year.
The lawful heir to them was Roger
Charles Tichborne. who was born i'm
1929. In youth his cousin Kate refused
his offer OF ~marriage-he vas highly
educated and had entered the army.
After this refusal. he resigned from the
army and went TO sea. He was at Val
paraiso. Chill. in 1853 and. the next year.
In Brazil. In April. 1854. he sailed on
the ship Bella. bound from Rio to New
York. The vessel was lost at sea. as
was supposed. with all on board.
Rumors We're heard. however. that
Roger Tichborne had escaped from the
wreck or did not sail on the vessel. as
had been reported. In 1866 a man call
ing himself Thomas Castro presented
himself as the original Roger Tichborne
who had escaped from the wreck twelve
years before. Prior to his arrival in
England he had correspondent with the
Tichborne family-in 1867 he formally
asserted his claim. The fellow had
mad himself familiar with many Incl
dents in the life of the Tiehbornes. He
gave startling testimony regarding the
courtship with the young lady who re-
jected Tichborne. The strange part OF
IL was that Tichborne's mother recog-
nized in the adventurer her son al
though no other member OF the family
was duped by him. Castro was the as
stunned name OF Orton, the butcher.
The claimant was unlike the real heir
In all ways He was illiterate. was
grossly fat. was taller h a the man
whom he ~personated and lacked the tat
too marks which appeared on the arm
OF the absent heir. The case did not
come to trial until 1865. owing to delay

America and Australia. Many promi.
nent persons and a considerable por'
ton OF the public took the side OF the
claimant. He rallied supporters. and

ant should enter into possession.

the opportunity TO see any kind OF a
minstrel performance. and 1t is only
once a year that they may see Primrose
* Vests MINISTRIES. This great organ-
ization will be the bill at the Margaret
tonight and the advance sale OF seats
gives promise that a large crowd will
be present to see one of the greatest
shows on earth.
Primrose & Vests Ministries have al
ways been good, but this year they are
especially fine. Wherever they have
appeared the press Is full Of commend
atory notices. Master Mechanic Tony
Harrity of the b.. A. & p. says that he
saw the show in Schenectady. N. Y.
some years ago., and that at that time
1t was worth 81 of any mans money to
see 1t. Since the time Mr.. Harrity saw
the performance and the present time
the management has added many new
features, gathered from the best pc
cialty talent of both London and Paris.

is pronounced by all to be the greatest
marvel in his line thai has ever been

possibly be conceived hat these gentle

No Difference.

To the Editor of the Standard:
Will you please state what. IL any.
difference there Is between a torpedo
boat n a torpedo-boat destroyer?
SUBSCRIBER.
The terms torpedo BOAT and torpedo
boat destroyer are often confused.
There is really no difference in the
craft. save that the latter is larger.
Several years ago, when France was
turning out torpedo boats by scores,
and had equipped her navy with about
$50 of these destructive little engines
of war. some genius in England con-
ceived the idea of building ships that
would be equally fast and armed to
wipe several torpedo boats off the face
of the ocean. When the boats were
built, the utility Of e%quipping them
with torpedo tubes became apparent.
and this was done. thus making OF
them nothing more nor less than tor
pedo boats of a larger growth. Since
hen nearly every nation has built ships
of this type, equipped both as torpedo
boa n warship destroyers. and the
general name OF torpedo-boat destroy
ers. while a misnomer, has been applied
to the class.

Montana Remembers Him Pleasantly

Edgerton was chief justice in a

Edgertou was chief justice in a
Rocky-mountain region which
included the p~resent-day Montana. He
was also Montana's first territorial gov
ernor. He is remembered kindly by
many of the men who were pioneers OF
this state; he had much to do with the
legislation that resulted in the %organiza-
ton Of the territory of Montana. He
was a man of excellent quality and.
doubtless. had he chosen to make this
state his permanent home, he would
have been the recipient OF many of its
honou.
But IL suited Governor Edgerton's
plans to return East after a brief term
as governor. His home is at Akron.
On March Is. his neighbors, the menu
bers OF the Summit county bar, paid
Governor Edgerton the compliment OF
n banquet which was made brilliant
with speeches and with eloquent trib-
utes to his career. as the oldest practic-
ing lawyer at the bar of that county.
The occasion is described as n Of rare

banquet. made up from the columns of

Montana's only complaint Is that the
members Of the Summit county bar did
not acquaint people out this way with
their intentions. Old residents OF Mon
tana who knew Governor Edgerton and
many younger citizens OF the state
whose knowledge OF Montana's early
history has taught them to hold his
name in high esteem would have
deemed II a rare pleasure to send theiI
greetings to the veteran who, by Abra-
ham Lincoln's selection. was the first
