WITH the death of John w. Keely,
one of the most curious delusions of the
nineteenth century passes away. Over
thirty years ago Keely announced that
he had discoyered mysterious power
of immense capabilities of industrial
application, and eyer since that time he
has been more or less in the public eye.
For a generation scientific men have
laughed at the news of the wonders of
Keely's discoveries, but Keely died be-
fore he had eyer given satisfactory de-
monstration that mis- ideas could be sue
cessfully adapted to commercial use
One part of Keely's invention was GER
tainly practicable. He understood
thoroughly the art of getting money
upon schemes which would have turned
the head of that early adventurer, John
Law, in his Mississippi Schemes. The
capitalization of the Keely Company
was s., 600, 900, and, so far as his counsel
knows, no statement has been left by
Keely that discloses the secret of his
motor, and the only legacy of the corp
grafton may be the mechanical appar-
atus in the Keely workshop, minus the
secret by which it might be operated. -

A Remarkable Case.
Clarion Republican.l J

An auditors report filed in the Or
phans Court of this county on Monday
last, has with its whole proceedings a
decided history and involves a question
never before met with in Clarion
county, and but very few instances of
the kind in the State of Pennsylvania.
Thomas Brizzle well known to some OF
our readers, lived in Highland town
ship, this county, alone and with nc
one about him. He died in that town
ship on the 22d day of March 1896,
without will and letters of admins
tration on his estate were granted to
James NJ. Owens of Clarion township.
who settled up the estate and filed his
account to August term 1898. The
acco unit was referred to Hon. J. A. F.
Hoy for distribution AT the hearing
it was developed that Brizzle was the
illegitimate son of Nancy Blair and
that he died 'intestate, unmarried and
without issue" his mother never was
married and died, prior to him leav-
ing no issue but him. His grand
mother also was dead No person was
left to inherit his estate. Numerous
cousins presented their claims, but
they could not be allowed-being illegi-
mate. never having been married and
his mother also never having been mar
ried and having died before he died.
He left no heirs and his estate of prob
ably 81, 600 in value escheats to the
State, the informer getting one-thlrd
and the State two-thirds. This is a
case the like of which are very few.

Great Britain's Friendship.

Our relations with Great Britain have
continued on the most friendly footing.
Asserting to our request, the protection
of Americans and their interest in
Spanish jurisdiction was assumed by
the diplomatic and consular representa-
tives of Great Britain, who fulfilled
their delicate and arduous trust with
tact and zeal, eliciting high commenda-
ton. / may be allowed to make fitting
allusion to the instance of Mr.. Rams
den, her majesty's consul at Santiago de
Cuba, whose untimely death after dis
tinguished service and untiring effort
during the siege of that city was sin
cerely lamented.
In the early part of April last. pursu-
ant to a request made at the instance of
the Secretary of State by the British
ambassador at this capital, the Canadian
government granted facilities for the
passage of four United States revenue
cutters from the great lakes to the At
lantic coast by way of the Canadian ca
mails and the st. Lawrence river The
vessels had reached Lake Ont ario and
were there awaiting the opening of nav
iration when war was declared between
the United States and Spain. Her maj
estys government thereupon, by COM
munication of the latter part of April,
stated that the permission granted be-
fore the outbreak of hostilities would
not be withdrawn, provided the United
States government gave assurance that
the vessels in question would proceed
direct to United States port without
engaging in any hostile operation. This
government promptly agreed to the
stipulated condition, it being under
stood that the vessels would not be pro-
hibited flom resisting any hostile at
tack.
1t will give me especial satisfaction II
shall be authorized to communicate to
you favorable conclusion of the pend
ing negotiations with Great Britain in
vespect to the dominion of Canada. 1t
is the earnest wish of the government
to remove all sources of discord and ir-
ritation in our relations with the neigh
boring dominion. The trade between
the two countries is constantly increas-
ing, and it is important to both coun-
tries that all reasonable facilities should
be granted for its development.

that the Fanita left the United States with the countenance of the American Government under a mere pretense of sailing for Cuba
 President Heureaux coolly. but as if he enjoyed a capital story, told how the revolution was nipped in the bud and how he had summarily executed nearly all the prisoners, reserving those who he thought might be used in obtaining further information about the conspir- acy.
 He described the flight of Jiminez as "cowardly,' and he said distinctly that he could make no claim against the United States Government, believing that the Government had been misled, through no fault of it's own. More over, he said he recognized the fu- tility of feeble state like his own of making a demand which he could not enforce against so powerful a neighbor
 The papers seized, however, seemed to show, he declared, that the leader of the expedition had arranged to notify the Americans by a secret code inmed- lately If the movement was successful They also showed. he continued, that Jiminez visited officials in Washington frequently during the six weeks that elapsed after he left Hayti.

CAPE HAYTIEN, June s-Presi- dent Heureaux of the Republic of Do- minica believes he has discovered proof that the steamer Fanita, formerly of the Clyde line, which was used by Senors Jiminez and Morales in their unsuccessful attempt to overthrow the Dominican Government, left the United States with the countenance of the American Government under a mere pretense of taking munitions of war to Cuba.
 President Heureaux arrived here to- day on the Dominican gunboat Restau- racion, about noon. from Great Inagua, and was interviewed by the corre- spondent of the Associated Press.
 General HeureauX said he had been warned that Jiminez was conspiring against him by an official whom Jim inez offered a post. He showed the correspondent notes he had made of the results of his investigation and also a bundle of discriminating papers taken from prisoners and from the bodies of the slain at Monte Cristi.
 It was in this connection that he de- veloped the striking fact of his belief
