The King of the Platform.

An audience of fully $500 gathered in and
around the tabernacle to hear Col. L..
F. Copeland, of Harrisburg, Pa. The
lecture was generally voted to be one of the
best given during the assembly. The colonel
has the peculiar faculty of getting hold on
the attention of the audience at the start and
then carrying them through to the end with
a ceaseess flow of wisdom and wit, eloauence
and instruction, satire, sarcasm and practical
criticism of existing follies.-Madison wis J
Heraid
The eloquent orator will be here
next Tuesday evening, March %, at
Meats Opera House. Those who have
not yet secured tickets should do so at
once, as this is the last lecture of the
season. Most people here have heard
Copeland and know that he is all that
he is represented to be.

DETROIT, Mich, Feb 22-Lobbies
OF the principal hotels were filed to-
Day with Republicans from all over
the state, who are here to attend the
Michigan club annual banquet and
other Republican events.
A reception was held this afternoon
at the residence of D. NJ. Ferry, chair
man of the Republican state central
committee. The guests of honor were
Senator c. W. Fairbanks, of Indiana
Senator Cushmau K Davis, of Mime
sofa. and William F. Curley, Of
Omaha.
An informal at home" was held al
day in the Michigan club rooms, cham
her Of commerce building.
One of the principal subjects OF COM
ment was the increasing strength OF
Gov. Pingree, who is now fairly con-
ceded TO be his own successor, even by
the Republican politicians who have
hitherto opposed him.
Tonight occurred the annual banquet
of the Michigan club. Nearly five hun
dred members were seated at the
tables. At the speakers table on the
stage were a score of Republican lead
ers Of national reputation.
Great interest conferred in the utter :
ances of Senator Cushman K. Davis Of
Minnesota, whose topic, Our Foreign
Relations" was considered of special
import on account Of Senator Davis
position as chairman Of the senate COM
mittee on foreign relations.
Senator Davis Speaks.
Senator Davis spoke of the vastness
and fntricacy Of our foreign relations
Said he: I'VE too often forget that
humanity in the state and socially is
subjected to laws of development and
control which no legislature can enact
or repeal A nation IS a great and COM
posite human being, a human-Ievia-
THAN, entitled to rights, subject 10 du-
ties and penalties. Nations develop and
decay in proportion as they observe the
rules formed by the accretions and
wisdom Of the ages in mankind's ex-
periences.
Many influences which sway the
tide Of human affairs are wholly out
side of enactments. Monetary values.
relations Of credit and exchanges of
balances were written in no code or
enactments in any time. They are In
trinsic in the wisdom Of all peoples
When a nation, a party seeks to evade
or overcome these natural laws 1t will
fail and overwheIm its country in dis
aster- The effects of the violation of
these worlds laws are not confined to
the place where the violation is per-
petrated- Like a tidal wave it shakes
the foundations Of all the structures
of order.
IF our states have differences. the
supreme court adjusts them. Between
Independent nations we have no such
tribunals. They cannot without sac
rifice Of their independence be sub
Jected to such a method.
This was the difficulty with Mr..
CleVeland's arbitration treaty. 1t pro-
vided that al pecuniaFy claims exceed

Capt. Sigsbee received dispatch
from Secretary Long tonight, saying
that the wrecking tug Right Arm has
been ordered from Key West TO Ha-

ther apparatus.
The bodies of twelve firemen have
been taken out from under the hatch
leading from the superstructure TO the
fire room. None was recognized, and
all were necessarily dismembered in
course of removal.
Not Picturesque.
There was nothing picturesque or I'M
pressive in the scenes in or about the
lighthouse tender Mangrove in which
the court of inquiry sat today. The
weather was somewhat cloudy, but on
the whole pleasant enough. a steady
breeze blew out the bunting in which
the Fern, the Bache and the Mangrove
were dressed in honor Of Washington's s
birthday The Spanish vessels also
fiCated the American colors in honor
Of the occasion
The Mangrove. which IS small and
rather ancient-IOOking lies near the
wreck on the side furtRest from Ha-
vana. with the Fern and the Bache
respectively north and south OF her.
All are moOred to buoys and swing with
the tide Boats from various vessels
or from the wharves ply to and fro in
the harbor with passengers eager to in
spect the mass of steel and iron which
is all that is left of a great battIeship.
On the Maugrove the sessions of the
court were held in the captains cabin
aft. The officers were not in full dress,
but in the uniform used every day
aboard ship. The proceedings were
very quiet, no one but the witnesses
and the shorthand reporter being ad-
mitted. The arrangement is that the
stenogPa pher shall write out his notes
day by day, and the court VIII adjourn
from time TO time 70 give him the op-
pOrtunity, as was the case today, when
the court again visited the wreck and
spent some time in additional iuspec-
ton.
The pomp and circumstance of the
tribunal are not as much as an ordI-
nary garrison court martial would
show. but the high character Of its
members and the evident earneStness
of their purpose TO find the truth, If
possible, give dignity to the court of
inquiry.

fire tonight. The origin of the fire is
a mystery, and it caused the hrenen

the building is in the form of two
