Both countries were too well satisfied
with the general result TO waste time or
discussion over small matters. Great
Britain had lost some forts and some
ships, but these would have been com
paratiyelv useless in the new system Of
warfare. On the other hand, she had
gained not only The iEcalculablc advan-
tage of the alliance, but q magnificent
ard unsurpassed landlockcti basin Oh the
coast Of Wales.
The United States had been obliged TO
pay an immense SUM on account OF the
contract with the war syndicate, but this
was considered money SO well spent, and
so much less than an ordinary war would
have cost, that only the most violent
anti-administration journals ever alluded
to it.
Reduction of military ard naval forces
ard gradual disarmament was now the
policy Of the allied nations. Such forces
and such vessels as might be demanded
f0r the future operations Of the war syn
dictate were retained. y few field bat
terieS Of motor guns were all that would
be needed on land, and q comparatively
small number OF armorcd ships would
suffice to carry the motor guns that
would be required at sea.
Now there would be 10 more mere OK
libitions of the powers of the instanta-
ncous motor bomb. Hereafter, if battles
must be fought, they would bo battles of
annihilation.
This is the history Of the great syndi-
cate war Whether or not the Anglo
American syndicate was ever called upon
to make war. is not to be stated here.
But certain it is that after the formation
Of this syndicate all the nations of the
world began to teach English in their
schools, and the Spirit of Civilization
raised her head with 4 confident smile.

abyss: then he walked over to the almost

A Pleasing Entertainment.

themselves the Oratorical club enter
tanned their friends with very pleas
ing program of evolutionary selections,

success and splendid credit to the
projectors, who are studying elocution
under Miss WEIGH, of Milwaukee,
Assisting in the musical numbers were
Mrs. w. T. Whyte, Miss Pearl Eaton,
Miss Lydia Pease, Miss Lulu Bertram
and Lewis Parks. The evolutionary
efforts of the Misses Ida Strauss, He'd
wig Herman, Freda Hoermann,

indeed a gratifying surprise. The
selections were of varied nature and
well showed the versatility and splen-

hope to enjoy more of them.
At the close Of the program the

Two Fires.

An alarm of fire at 1880 Saturday
night called the department to Otto
j. Goeldner's store, in the basement
of which a smouldering fire had been
discovered in pile of rubbish. There
being no draft to fan the blaze, it did
not make much Roadway and was
soon eXtinguished, with small loss.
The principal damage was done by
the dense smoke to the stock of goods
on the first floor. The smoke also
affected one of the firemen, A. G.
Kruger, to the extent of overcoming
him, but he soon recovered.
Monday afternoon at 3 o'clock an
alarm was turned in from the @. B.
Lewis company's factory, where spon-
taneous combustion had started a
blaze in the shavings pit, over the
boiler room. The department soon
had several streams of water at work
and the fire was put out in short order.
A number Of factory hands engaged
in cleaning out the pit after the fire
were so affected from inhaling the
fumes caused by smoke and water
that they tainted away, but there were
no serious consequences.
