to secure Captain Hugh Duffy Of the Bos-
ton Club to manage one Of their clubs next
season. President Johnson of that league
has given 1t out that Duffy would probably
go to Milwaukee next. thus allowing Con-
ME Mack to go to Philadelphia to manage
the team to be located in the Quaker city.
Captain Duffy received a telegram from
Connie Mack asking for conference at
Worcester. Mack lives at East Brookfield,
Mass, near Worcester. Duffy said he would
see what Mack had to say, but would not
think of going to Milwaukee. Said the cap
tain:
Il am not through with the big league yet
for a while, and think I can do better in
the east Should 1 leave Boston, as 1 am
reserved by the Boston Club, it would be
well to know something about the bust
ness before I should decide on any new
move"
The idea of managing a team in Phia-
delphia was not distasteful to him, but go
ing west-thats different. Duffy will listen
to all propositions from the American
League, as he thinks well of the organiZa
ton, but still prefers the old league, and is
positive that it Is long ways from all in
yet awhile
President soden of the Boston Club was
asked what claim the local club had on
Duffy, and said
81 consider that Duffy has signed con-
tract to play ball with the Boston Club for
next season, just as we claim every other
man has who signed a last seasons con-
tract, therefore the American League, or.
in fact, any other league. has no legal
right to interfere with his connection with
the Boston Club"
While the Boston Club would not try to
injure their old captain, they don't see what
right the American League has to confer
with player whom they consider under
contract, not to speak Of the national agree
ment which both leagues are now operating
under. The chances are that Boston would
be willing to allow Duffy to better himself
If they were sure that Frank Selee would
come around all right next season. The
local management has very high regard
for Duffy, and the latter does not relish the
idea of leaving the city of culture.

BACKING! BACKING!
British Back the Beers and Burghers
Out of KrOOnstadt.

Roberts forces entered Kroonstadt,
Saturday, the Beers retiring without
fight, but taking with them all their
supplies. The American wife of q
Scotchman was the first one to run up
a British flag in the city.
There will be no fighting, till the
Vaal river, is reached. Kroonstadt is
about 60 miles south of the Vaal River,
and Pretoria, the capital of the Trans
vaal, about the same distance north OF
the river.
The Free Staters are reported to be
dem oralized, and more than willing to
surrender. But the fact that the Boer
forces carry all their supplies and
equipments with them, as they fall
back, does not indicate much demoral-
izatiOn.
There will probably be fight at the
Vaal River, and the skirmishing may
begin next week. But it is very prob
able that Roberts will not cross the
Vaal, until Butler crosses the river
further east, and turns the Boer left
flank.
If the Beers intend fighting battle
for their capital, they must fight it at
the river.

A PRETTY BOOKLET.

''The best of everything" is the key
note of the success of The Chicago &
North w estern Railway. In the eqnip-
ment and furnishings of its magnifi-
cent passenger trains the best of every
thing is sumptuously used for the
pleasure and comfort of the travelling
public. The literature of The North
Western Line is also in keeping with
this well-known motto. The Passen-
ger Department has recently issued a
little brochure describing scenes along
the route of the famous electric lighted
North Western Limited, which is an
artistic gem. This little booklet con-
tains number of elegant half-teae en-
gravings-glimpses of principal cities,
natures freaks and scenes between
Chicago and the Twin Cities. 1t is the
latest and handsomest effort of the
printers and engravers' art in modern
boOkmaking. Four cents in stamps,
sent to w. B. Kniskern, % Fifth Ave,
Chicago, will secure copy of this
beautiful souvenir.

THE WORK
Of the Presbyterian Church Of Amer
lea.

A St. Louis dispatch to the Com
merical Tribune, says that the Presby-
terian General Assembly is not likely
to take other action on revision of the
Confession of Faith, than to appoint a
Committee to report upon the question
at the next annual meeting. Speaking
of the work of this church, this dis
patch says:,s
''The influence of the Presbyterian
Church in the country may be inferred
from the fact that it has doubled its
membership in the last quarter of a
century,. Its membership falls only a
fraction below q million, its constitu-
ency being at least thrice that; its Sun
day school scholars number over mil
lion by actual enumeration. Nearly
$14, 100000 is spent annually In its
activities.
''Of this amount three-quarters OF a
million goes to foreign missions and a
full million to home missions. Its
churches number 7, 700 and its ministers
7,40O. Such force as this possesses q
spiritual dynamic that must tell might
lily in the moral and spiritual uplift OF
the country.
A church that can point to such re-
suits, need not go into Mysteries be-
cause some skyrocket has shot off into
the darkness, nor be ashamed of Its
creed. by their fruits ye shall know
them"

EMPEROR WILLIAM
Still Carries q Chip on His Shout lder
For Uncle Sam

Denmark has been desirous of dis |
posing of St. Thomas and her island |
in the West Indies, but
when our Government recently express
ed purpose to accept the offer to sell,
Denmark declined to sell. 1t is said
that it was the influence of Germany
that prevented the sale, she herself
desiring to get the islands.
1t has also been stated that Germany
is looking toward interfering in Brazil,
where project is afoot to declare the
independence of a German colony from
the government of Brazil.
On the basis of these rumors, our
Secretary of War, Mr.. Root, in re-
cent speech, was reported to have said
that we must be prepared to fight for
the Monroe doctrine, within a year.
Thursday last, Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts, in speech in the SEN
ate, argued that our navy should be
largely strengthened at once to meet
these threatened emergencies, as the
purchase of the West India Danish pos
sessions by Germany or the dismember-
ment of the Republic of Brazil in the
interest of Germany, would be under
stood and accepted as challenge OF
the Monroe doctrine, and an affront to
our country.
It will be remembered that while
Dewey's feet lay in Manila bay, Ger
many's Admiral on several occasions
gave uncalled for offense to our navy,
and was on one occasion called down
by Dewey, who asked for the Monitor
and the Oregon to reinforce his fleet.
1t is felt therefore, that it will be well
to have feet that will be able to as
sert the rights and dignity of our coun.
try in the face of any foe.
The German Government has denied
any intentions of interfering in Brazil
and of buying the Danish Islands, but
we do not forget that she said she
would send no war vessel to Hayti, and
then sent one, as much to affront oul
nation as to secure any rights from tina
weak power.
Secretary Root nor Senator Long
would throw out such serious intima
tions if they did not have information
that we need to meet the rapid strength
ening of the navy of Germany by En-
lperor William.
Senator Lodge in his speech, said:
"We could never allow the Danisl
Islands to pass into any other hand
than ours. The European nation
(which would undertake to take pos
session of those islands, right on th'
road to the proposed Nicarauga canal
land to make of them great naval sta
tions, would by that very act become
an enemy of ours. We could submi
to no such thing as that. Such an ac
by any European power would meal
war;"

EMPEROR William, of Germany, and
Binkley William, of Sidney, have
put their disapproval on the study Of
Latin and other dead languages, with
exceptional cases, believing the ordin-
ary boy and girl should give more time
to the study Of. their own language.
The people have already endorsed this
position. Latin quotations are not
used in speaking and writing, one time
now, where they were used thousand
times thirty years ago. The man who
writes or speaks the sturdy Anglo
Saxon. speaks with more force than he
who uses the smooth melifuent verbi-
age of the soft Italian seas. Force is
what counts.
