though an agreement upon the terms Of
arbitration had not yet been reached he
held that Canada's wisest course was to
exercise further patience and forbear-
ance.
A Washington dispatch says that the
statement of Premier Laurier in the Ca
madam House of Commons that there are
two alternatives regarding the Alaskan
boundary dispute, arbitration or war, is
regarded in Washington as only another
bluff for Canadian home consumption.
The United States has been in possession
of the territory in dispute, for genera
ton. The United States has only to say,
in Sir Wilfrid's ancestral language, "Je

Chicago officers to Secure Mounts for
Philippine Troops.
Acting Chief Quartermaste Palmer OF
Chicago received instructions from the
War Department officials at Washington
over the long-distance telephone Saturday
to buy 5000 horses at once for the use of
the cavalry troops in the Philippines. The
animals required must weigh between 900
and 1000 pounds and be perfectly sound
in every respect and under Z years old
The horses will be specially selected, as
none but the best animals are able to
Withstand service in tropical climates
during the rainy season.
Maj. J. B. Aleshire, chief quartermas-
ter at Matanzas, Cuba, now in Chicago
on leave Of absence, was selected to
travel through the adjoining States in
search of the animals needed. He is one
of the best experts on horses in the en-
ployment of the Government.

NELSON BEHIND THE SCENES
Incid ents of His Life Recalled by a
Friends Daughter.

Incidents of His Life Recalled by a
Friends Daughter.
My father always spoke Of Lord Mel
son as having a singular power Of at
taching all under his command to HIM
self, from the highest official to the
lowest cabin boy serving under his
flag. Lord Nelson's sense Of religion
was sincere and strong. He brought
it with him into his profession, and it
never left him. My father, who knew
him intimately, said: Though it,
(his religious feeling) ''did not keep him
from the great error of his life, 1t
ought to be remembered that few
were ever so strongly tempted, and l
believe that had Nelson's home been
made to him what wife Of good tenn
per and judgment would have made it,
he never would have forsaken it." A
great cause of quarrel and dissension
between Lord and Lady Nelson was
the latter's son by a former marriage,
who was not a satisfactory person
from Lord Nelson's point of view.
When Lord Nelson was commanding
the Mediterranean fleet. and was "
ing off the Spanish coast, the captains
of two Spanish frigates just arrived
from America, sent to entreat an audi
ence of him, merely to give themselves
the qualification of seeing a person
whom they considered to be the great
est seaman in the world. Captain
Hardy took their request to Lord Mel
son and urged him to comply with it..
Notwithstanding the AdmiraTs peev-
ish reply of what in the world IS
there to see in an old Withered fellow
like myselfY' he ordered that they be
admitted.
breeches and silk stockings, and at
that moment his legs were bound up
at the knees and ankles with pieces Of
brown paper, soaked in vinegar, and
tied on with red tape. This had been
done to allay the irritation arising
from mosquito bites. Quite forgetting
his attire and the extraordinary APP
pearance which it presented, Lord Mel
son went on deck and conducted the
interview with the Spanish captain
with such perfect courtesy that his
singular appearance was quite obliter-
ated by the charm Of his manner, and
the Spaniards left the ship with their
high opinion of him thoroughly con-
flrmed
He was very peevish about trifes,
and would sometimes say to Captain
Hardy: Hardy, it is very hard that
/ cannot have my breakfast punctu
ally when I order itr'-Blackwoods

MUST ARBirRATe OR FIGHT.

Premier Laurier's Rema r11a bic View
OF Alaska boundary Dispute.
In the Canadian Commons Saturday
Sir Charles Upper brought up the ques-
ton of the Alaskan boundary. He said
that the United States in refusing to sub
nit the subject to arbitration, we'll justi-
fed the decision Great Britain and Cam
ada had reached in declining to allow the
question to go before the joint high com
mission. He believed that the Govern
ment and commissioners Of the United
States had lost confidence in their own
claims to this strip Of disputed territory.
Sir Charles suggested a bill providing for
the protection Of British and Canadian
interests by enacting that no license to
mine in the Yukon district shall be grant
ed to any other than a British subject.
Premier Laurier, in reply, sympathized
with much that Sir Charles Upper had
said. He stated that he had little hope
now of compromise, and was very sorry
to say that the negotiations had not adj
vanced the position one iota from that Of
January last.
The alternatives, he grayely stated,
were arbitration or war Arbitration, he
emphatically declared, must come, and al

RIOT IN CLEVELAND.
STREET GAR is BLOWN UP WITH
DYNAMITE.
Nine Passengers Injured, Two or
Whom May Die Mobs Attack CHI
GERS and the Nonunion Crews-State
Militia Is Called Ont.

Cleveland was quiet Monday morning
after a riotous Sunday. Mob violence
continued throughout the city from Sat
urday night to late Sunday night. Troops
A, mounted; naval reserves, and several
companies Of the Fifth regiment, infan-
try, O. N. G., were kept busy scattering
mobs. One missile throWer was shot
while trying to escape from a policeman.
but with all the rioting there was little
harm done.
Sunday night it became serious. The
worst incident Of the lawless night was
the blowing up of Euclid avenue car in
the far east end. Nine people were in
jured. 1t is believed nitroglycerin was
used. Motorman Dreggers was blown
from the car, and one of his ears was
blown off, but he managed to catch the
car again and shut off the current. About
twenty people were on the car. Women
who were not hurt tainted. The car was
badly damaged. Fred Smith was blown
into the air, then fell into the holes made
in the floor, and was dragged along a con-
siderable distance. 1t is believed couple
of men who approached the spot IN pug
gy a few minutes before the explosion
left the nitrogly cerin on the track. A
private detective saw them and said he
knew them.
Mob violence broke forth with great
fury on Burton street, near Trent street,
Sunday morning About 10 o'clock the
mob, which numbered $500 people, at
tackled two cars with stones. The cars
were in charge of Patrolmen Moore and
Thorpe. The police left the cars and the
mob closed in about them. The officers
fought with their clubs, but the fury of
the rioters was too much for them. They
were badly bruised, when a Catholic
priest was seen elbowing his way through
the crowd. He finally reached the police,
and standing before them and the mob
commanded the rioters in the name of the
church to save the lives Of the men. The
flowing robes of the priest and his brave
act awed the mob. The officers were then
taken into st. Prokops Church Their
brave rescuer was the Rev. Father Wen

Both are fond Of society, and as the posi-.

most prominent in the cabinet the couple
would become leaders in Washington.
Elihu Root is leading New York law
yer and Republican politician. The only
time Mr.. Root has been candidate for
an elective Office was in 1889, when he
ran unsuccessfulIy for judge Of the Court
of Common Pleas. He was appointed by
President Arthur in 1888 United States
district attorney, in place Of Stewart L.
Woodford, for the southern district OF
New York, remaining in office until 1883.
He was all active member Of the commit
tee of thirty which worked to obtain re-
fogm in the city of New York, and In
1886 was chairman of the Republican
county committee Of New York. Ihe
President offered Mr.. Root the Spanish

Startled. frightened, glad rejoicing in
her sweet Imprisonment, she looked quick

a roguish glance sparkling behind ner

"You-you haven't said anything,
Dave!"
And then he hid her head against his
shoulder where he had drawn 1t, ano

back the tell-tale words which had slipped

But Dave, timid as he had hitherto been

meaning of her pretty speech.

New York Lawyer and Politician Ap.
pointed Secretary of War.
The President has appointed Elihu
Root Of New York as Secretary of War
to succeed Russell A. Alger, resigned.
The appointment was made after con-
ference between President Mckinley and
the cabinet. The President has had I'M
der consideration the appointment OF MT.
Root for some time. Senator Plat said
his personal choice had been Gen. Fran
els V. Greene. He added, however, that
the choice made by President Mckinney
would be satisfactory to New York he
publicans, including Chauncey M. Depew,
Gov. Roosevelt and himself.
1t is understood that the new Secre-
tary will not take charge Of the purely
military matters Of the Office, leaving
these to Assistant Secretary Meikle1ohn
and Adjt. Gen Corbin, while he will con-
Germ himself with the larger problems
arising on account Of our new possess
sions. The question Of salary will not be
one which will influence his acceptance OF
the position, for he is wealthy and Mrs.
Root has quite fortune in her own right.

Many Divines Make the Dead Infide1
the Subject of ern1ons.
The life and death of Col. Robert G.
Ingersoll has furnished the theme for
many Of the sermons preached through
out the length and breadth Of the coun-
try, and, in fact, all civilized countries Of
the globe.
Chicago.-Had he not met in his early
years with the cold, formal and repelling
restraints that false conceptions Of re-
ligion had brought into the church he
might have become Americas greatest
preacher.-Rev. Brown. Agnosticism Is
simply an expression Of the inability OF
the human Intellect to cope with so vast
subject as the infinite being Of God.-Dr.
Thorp. I believe that those who some
times attempted to reply to him did harm,
too. Argument is not so good weapon
for the Christian as testimony to the
power of Christ to save and bless.-Dr.
Gray. There are ministers who are do
ing as much harm as he ever did; men
who try to prove that Jonah never lived,
who try to prove that Job was fcti-
tious character, men who tear the very
Bible to shreds with their so-called higher
criticism.--Rev. Harrison. He had false
and morbid views of Christianity; his
was caricature of religion.-Dr. j. p.
Thomas.
New York-Crime will continue to eat
it's way into the breasts of your youths
as long as consciences are dulled by such
doctrines-Dr. Parkin. II in that infinite
presence he is compelled to ask for mercy
we are assured in scripture that there is
no failure of infinite willingness to for
give.-Rev Cheu. He was a kind-heart-
ed, lovable father, the friend Of society,
an orator, but with all his talents he was
a failure.-Rev. Smith. Col. Ingersoll
will be judged according to his light and
according to his deeds. Surely he will be
better off than the hypocrite, the liar and
the knave.-Dr. Bodine. What bless
ing it is that Mr.. Ingersoll and his fol-
lowers could avoid the consequences OF
their own doctrine by living in an age OF
Christianity and enjoying that marvellous
civilization of which Christianity has
been the mother teacher.-Dr. Cadman

A Free Man.

James Sprowls, an ex-deputy
marshal of this district, was tried
at Norman, Okla. last week for
violating the revenue laws. The
trial consumed FIVE days and re-
suited in an acquittal. Sprowls
was in the federal Jail here several
months preceding the last term of
court on a charge Of forgery. 1t
was alleged that he was implicated
in forging the names of Bob Rags
dale and James Taliaferro as sure
ties on bond and also the name
Of L. Easley as notary public. The
bond was sent to Paris, Tex, and
Frank Raglin, who was in Jail there
for horsetheft was released. The
district attorney found no evidence
against Sprowls and the case was
dismissed, by the ex- deputy paying
the costs, which amounted to $40.
He has been in prison in Oklahoma
since he was taken from here dur
ing the last term Of court, but is
now q free man.
