Perhaps the fastest reader the world
ever knew was Gladstone. He could
read and digest n novel OF $4,000 words,
n scientific work as large or larger,
political treatise or n history as nc
turned them over. His eye and nina
seemed TO photograph with the rapidly
OF an instantaneous camera. His eye
was the lens, his mind the sensitive
plate In his reading he was omniVor-
Gus to the last degree. The most rapid
reader we ever had in this country Is
John G. Carlisle, former senator from
Kentucky, speaker OF the house, secre-
tary OF the treasury and now legal rep
resentative OF n giant trust. with head
quarters In New York. Joe Blackburn,
the most popular man In Kentucky,
says that Carlisle Is the most remarka-
bic man he ever saw; that he can tell
the contents OF book without look
ing Mt 1t, and give the synopsis OF an
argument on being told the name OF
the author.

UNvERTFIED RUMoRs

That Beers Have Delivered Another
Message to British Commissioners.
LONDON, Sept. 19.-Thrre is an un.
verified rumor from Cape Town to-day
that the Beers have delivered another
message to the British high commits
sloner, Sir Alfred Miner, more con-
cIlIatory than yesterdays reply. The
rumor, however, falls to obtain much
credence and Is not taken ps In ans
way mitigating the seriousness OF the
crisis.
The outlander press sees nothing but
war uheRd and urges the Outlnnders to
leave Immediately.
The London press Is now inclined to
take the view that the recent action on
the part OF the Beers does not make
war certainty, though II does place
the British cabinet in n position where
It must take steps 80 aggressive that
war or utter, lEnOmininuB submission
will be the only alternatives remaining
to the TransvnRl and ts by no means 80
persistent tn urging the government to
move, except In the matter OF hurrying
troops TO the probable scene of action.
The Pail Mall Gazette prints dispatch
from Cape Town which snys: "The
general impression Is that the Beers
will at once take the initiative and an
attack Is expected at any hour"
Troops continue TO leave Cape Town
for Kimberly and the north and first
class cruiser Terrible, sailing from
Portsmouth for Chlnn, to-day IS report
cd to have been ordered to go by way

LONDON COMMENTS
Chiefly Refer to Dramatic Features
OF Scheurer.K Kestner's Death.

ClAeAAN AbFiAGE W OE9A4SNAS = ENANeAS9
Of scheurer-Kestner's Death.
LONDON, Sept. 1S-The afternoon
newspapers here comment chiefly upon
the death Of NJ. scheurer- Restner, COM
pairing It's dramatic features with the
deaths of Nelson and Wolfe at the mo-
ment Of victory.
NJ. -Kestner had been suffer-
ing for two weeks from typhoid fever.
The Evening News declares there Is
now no need to boycott the Paris expo
sltion.
Truth. Henry LabOuchere's paper.
protesting against universal con-
demnation of France. on account OF the
Dreyfus affair, says:
, II believe there are many Americans
with whom the Innocence of Mrs. Flor
ence Maybrick is an article Of faith.
The lady in the meantime. is enjoying
the hospitality of an English prison as
convicted murderess. Nevertheless
the American journals. although by no
means retlceHt in the expression Of
their opinions, do not denOunce Eng
llsh Justice as disgrace to civilization,
the English people as lost to nll sense
Of right, and Liverpool, where she was
sentenced, as an nccursed city"
There is much remark here on the
strange coincidence of the death of NJ
scheurer-Kestner, the first champion
Of Dreyfus and to whom Dreyfus will
virtually owe his freedom. on the very
day the cabinet decided to pardon the
prisoner.
NJ. -Restner's death was
sudden. He had been III during the
last few days, but it was not thought
that his illness would prove fatal.
