Duprayen'x Second Error.

The Earl of Dunraven ruined his repu-
tation in America by his charges against
the yacht Defender. which afterward he
was unable to substantiate, and seriously
impaired his popularity over here. Eng
lishmen object to fellow countryman
making an exhibition of himself. and the
general impression here is that his loud
ship acted foolishly. Only the other day
Lord Dunraven received a gentle remind
err that his fatuous charges against
American yachtsmen were not forgotten
by any means. He Is one Of the reaction
airy members OF the London school board.
IL only citizens of the United States
knew how Londoners have to fight for
popular. education against thick headed
Toryism they would not wonder at the
ignorance and drunkenness that are met
with in the poorer quarters of the mighty
metropolis. Dunraven was hauling
board schoolmnster over the Goals for be-
ing, as he claimed, the worse for liquor,
and on investigation it turned out that
the charge was quite unfounded. John

also a member Of the school board. in

John Wesley contested the three king
doms in the cause Of Christ during the
campaign which lasted 40 years. He
did it for the most part on horseback.
He paid more turnpikcs than any man
who ever bestrode beast. Eight thou
sand miles was his annual record for
many long year. during each of which
he seldom preached less frequently than
5000 times. Had he but preserved his
scores at all the inns where he lodged
they would have made by themselves
history of prices. And throughout it
all he never knew what depression Of
spirits meant, though he had much to
try him, suits in chancery and jealous
wife.
In the course of this unparalleled con-
test Wesley visited again and again the
most out of the way districts. the re-
hottest corners of England. places which
today lie far removed even from the
searcher after the picturesque. In 1899,
when the map Of England looks like n
gridiron of railways, none but the stur-
diest of pedestrians, the most determin-
ed of cyclists can retrace the steps OF
Wesley and his horse and stand by the
rocks and the natural amphitheaters in
Cornwall and Northumberland. IN Lam
cashire and Berkshire, where he preach
ed his gospel to the heather. Exertion
SO prolonged, enthusiasm SO sustained.
argues remarkable man, while the or
ganization he created. the system he
founded, the view of life he promulgated,
is still great fact among us. No other
name than Wesley's lies embalmed as
his does.-Augustine Birrell in Serb.

Lloyd Lowndes and Richard Lowndes,
sons of Governor Lowndes of Maryland,
are twins and look very much alike. Ac-
cording to story going the rounds, Rich
ard was travelling through Ohio year
ago, when man came through the cars
and slapped him on the back. Hello,
Lloyd" he said, stop over and spend the
night with me at Chillcothe." Richard
said he wasn't Lloyd. but the man
wouldn't believe him, so he stopped over.
Among the people he met was Miss May
Quinn. She liked him, and he liked her,
but Richard had been married for sever
al years. So he told his brother Lloyd
about her, and in process Of time Lloyd
went to see her, fell in love, proposed and
was married last week. When he told his
fancee that he was not the Lloyd she
first met, but that the first Lloyd was q
false Lloyd and really Richard, he had a
hard time convincing her he was speak
ing the truth.

Seat hack to Utah.
Indianapolis. Dec. IT. - Senator
Charles W. Fairbanks arrived home
yesterday and gave the following in
terview outlining the senate program
and commenting upon national ques-
tons. He said:
1.-THE first thing after the holiday
recess will be the consideration Of the
currency bill. This mater will be
taken up on Jan. I, and there will in
all probability be a month Of debate.
The bill will pass the senate beyond all
doubt.
After that there may b. some dis
cussion about the Philippine question
IL the resolutions of Senator Hoar re-
ceive attention. However, the oppor-
tunity Of discussing this question will
be given during the next presidential
campaign, as 1t will be one of the lead
ing questions. The phase of the ques-
ton which will receive attention at the
hands of the senate will be the best
way to Immediately ceas, hOstilities
and bring the islands under the sub
jugation of the United States. The
sentiment in favor Of retaining the ISL
ands is very strong In Washington.
"The Investigation of the Roberts
case is In the hands of the court ap-
pointed for that purpose and the final
decision will ely be made in the near
future. There can be but one out
come, and that is that he will be in
structed to return to the state Of
Utah"

Washington, Dec. 27.-Mr. Roberts,
the director of the mint, was asked
yesterday as to whether the present
monetary stringency, in his opinion,
signified an actual scarcity of money to
meet the present requirements of
trade. He said: mo possible supply
of money can prevent stock exchange
panic or periods of monetary strin-
gency, because speculation and rising
prices will absorb any possible In
crease until the pressure for ready
cash is just as great upon the new
plane as it was upon the old The cry
for more money is as indispensable as
the demand for more wealth. A new
supply, instead of satisfying the de-
mand, stimulates it."

A Conflict of Authority.

Omaha, Dec. 27.-Acting under the
instructions of the governor Attorney
General Smyth today began proceed
ings in Sarpy county charging Cor
poral Fear and Private Jenkins witt
the murder of Private Morgan. The
two men, acting under orders from thr
proper offers, shot and killed Norge,
while the latter was trying to escape
from Fort Crook. The Sarpy county
authorities declined to prosecute, leav
ing the matter to the military, who
held a court martial and acquitted the
men. The governor then ordered the
case taken into the state courts. Dis
trict Attorney Summers has received
orders from Washington to defend the
men.

CRUDE OIL THE THING.

a Railroad Has Settled the Dust Problem
with Oil.
The experiment. of making railroad
dust proof and water proof by the use
of crude oil has been tried during the
past year in the East with success.
In the West, the Burlington railroad
is the first to adopt the improvement.
General Superintendent Calvert has
had part of the Wyoming division of
the Burlington treated with crude oil,
and the results there have been so
satisfactory that he is making arrange
ments to continue the work elsewhere
on the system. Two cars were es-
pecially arranged for sprinklipg the
track and the road bed with oil. Oil
was sprinkled in the center of the
track and on the outside of the rails for
about five feet. One application of the
oil keeps the track free from dust for
about one year. The number of hot
boxes on trains is considerably les
sened, and the comfort of passengers is
greatly enhanced. An additional ad-
vantage 10 treating the track with oil
is that moisture will not then pene-
tra6e through the oiled outer crust.
Instead, the water runs off the track
into the bitches at the side. Vegeta-
tion along the track is destroyed by
the use of oil.
