MHRCHAND'S RECEPTION.

nARIS has had something OF good fortune in the
~ course OF events which have brought about the
decision OF the Court OF Cessation on the Drey-
fus case at a time when popular attention is largely
taken up with preparations for the grand reception to
be given Major Marchand on his return from his dan
gerous mission TO Central Africa. With public
thusiasm aroused for the man who for the moment is
the hero OF France there will be less likelihood OF
outbreak than there would have been had nothing
occurred to distract the thoughts of the from
the Dreyfus controversy.
The work accomplished by Marchand in his march
across Africa will not have the great effects which
were expected OF it It appears that his mission
make his way from the French possessions in Africa
across the divide to the Nile basn where he was to
launch gunboats. and make his way to Fashoda, and
possibly Khartoum. He was to be followed by other
expeditions constituting force strong enough to hold
the territory against the Mahdists, and thus place
France in possession of the abandoned provinces of
Egypt in the SOudan.
AS his mission was a secret one, the force given him
was small He made his way through the wds OF
Africa under circumstances of extreme difficulty. Dur
ing the march he proved himself to be of the
boldest and most resoceful explorers and leaders of
our times He reached the Nile, only to find that while
he had been struggling through the widernesses and
the swamps General Kitchener, with British and
Egyptian army, had made march up the Nile and
was in military possession of the land in dispute Mar
chand therefore all his work in vain. There
was nothing for him to do but to make claim for
France and leave the issue to be settled by diplomacy,
as has been since arranged.
The failure OF the military and political features OF
the expedition in wise detracs from the credit due
to the intrepid explorer Marchand did his work will,
and fully deserves any honor his country or his
trymen will bestow upon him. He at least placed
France in position from which she could demand
concessions OF trade rights along the Nile and that
while slight in comparison with what he hoped for is
something of which French trade may derive
great profit.

IN HIDING AT THE MANSFIELD
WAS LOCATED THROUGH THE
TRANSOM.

Peter w. McGlade was arrested yester-
day afternoon on q bench warrant by De-
tective Thomas Gibson at the Mansfield
House on Post street, above Grant ave-
nue..
McGlade has been in hiding ever since
his indictment by the Grand Jury on May
% on the charge of forgery, and it was
thought that he had skipped for parts
unknown. Detective Gibson has been
working hard to discover his whereabouts
and succeeded in locating him by shadow
ing Park Jones, former employe of the
registration office, and a close friend of
McGlade.
Yesterday afternoon Gibson employed a
messenger boy to follow Jones and the
latter went into the Mansfield. Gibson
soon entered the house, but could get no
satisfaction from the landlady, Mrs. Mil
ler regarding his suspicion that McGlade
was secreted in the house. The Chinese
servant employed there was equally as
reticent but managed to blurt out that
lone big man had not left his room for
week"
This gave Gibson a clew, and learning
from the messenger boy that Jones had
disappeared somewhere on the second
floor, he began systematic investigation.
ficer Purves and peered through the glass
transoms, with which each door is pro-
viGed After he had inspected several
rooms in this manner he finally came to
his shirtsleeves, playing cards with Moose
Taylor, a former jockey at the Oakland
track.
McGIade threw down the cards at Glib
sons apparition, and then with a sickly
smile said:
Hello; you here again?''
Seeing that the Gig was up" McGlade
went quietly with Gibson to the Central
Station. Bail had been fixed on the for
gerry charge at $4,000.
McGlade refused to say anything about
his disappearance, but appeared to be dis
appointed that his bonds We're not ready
as soon as he was booked. 1t is thought
that he intended to remain in hiding until
his attorney, Patrick Reddy, had returned
from Idaho. where he has gone to try
some mining cases.
Detective Gibson expressed himself as
highly elated at MeGlade,s capture, as it
was he who located the fugitive in Mex
leo when he was first brought back.
"McGlade's friends said Gibson, were
around boasting that he would never be
located. and 1 made up my mind to catch
him if it was the last act of my life"

THE EVILS OF
EXAMINATIONS

Editor of The Call-Dear Sir: I was
glad to see in to-day's Call a protest
against school examinations. l hope this
matter will be taken up by the parents
and with your permission thoroughly agi-
tated in your paper. AS a parent, / would
gladly help in such an agitation. A few
years ago, when a member of the State
Normal School, 1 saw it's "cruel and un-
just work. Young women who were
short of funds and short in time, feel
ing the necessity of soon being at work
would become so nervous during the cru
cial hour that we could tell by their burn
ing cheeks and anxious expression as they
came from the classroom that they had
been having an examination. l knew one
young woman, hard worked and conscien-
tious. who became absolutely helpless at
one of these tests and could do nothing
at all, and was marked a failure. Will
some physician please tell us what effect
upon the health these strains have? 1t
is the same in the country schools as In
the town. This afternoon an u-year-old
boy on his way home from a whole day
of county examinations stopped at my
door on an errand. He appeared sick and
at the point of crying. In answer to my
inquiry, he said his head ached and he
guessed II was the writing that made It,
