United States Ms Investor.
From the Chicago Tribune.

The position of the United States as an
investing nation is shown in striking fash
ion by the placing of German municipal
bonds on sale in New York on Monday.
During the last two years the United States
has taken rank as an investing nation.
Shipments of gold are for investment as
well as in payment of interest charges.
Money is more plentiful in the United
States than anywhere else and it commands
lower rate of interest here. The rate for
money is less in New York and Chicago
than in any European capital. The only
one with which comparison is possible is
London, where the quotations are less for
long loans. although the advantage is with
the United States in loans for short periods
and for demand money. There is .alk of
American investment of capital in Europe
In manufacturing industries, and soma con-
Germs have established branch factories in
GERMANY.

The Florentine fetes last year presented
one historical spectacle that was distinctly
worth the trouble of reviving. We refer
to the medieval game known as calcio, or
Kick. which is interesting to English and
American youths as bearing at least a
superficial likeness TO foot ball. At the
time of the fetes it was, indeed spoken of
as the foot ball of Florence, but it differs
from foot ball in two ways that are emf
II is more complicated and more spectacu-
lar.
To begin with, there were twenty-seyt n
actual players needed on each side besides
trumpeters, drummers. standard bearers
referees and a ball thrower. OF the TWEEN
ty-seven players, fifteen. divided into three
equal companies, were placed face to face
with the enemy in front of the battle, and
bore the brunt of the strife. They were
| called runners (corridorD or fronts Qn-
nanZD.
| Behind the three battalions of runners
were placed in loose order, extending across

ers (scOnCiatorD. so called because their
| business was to spoil the game for the run

The spoilers were supported by four
| front hitters (datori innanzD: and these
again by three back hitters (datori indietro).
These datori may be spoken of as half
| backs and backs.
| The favorite CALICO ground in Florence
| was the square before the church and con-

THE TWO GREAT VICEROYS

Written for The Evening Star by Isaac T. Headland
Professor Of Mental and Moral Philosophy, Uni
versity Of Pekin.
The Chinese for many centuries have
had proverb that mo good man will
ever become a soldier and this proverb
is in harmony with the whole makeup of
the Chinese people. Just before the Chi
nese-Japanese war there were great predic-
items as to what would happen. 1t was
stated that the world would have to reor-
ganize her forces If the Chinese army were
to take the field. that the Chinese were
among the best soldiers in the world, that
they were the most astute leaders, and the
bravest followers Of any people on earth,
besides a lot more of the same tenor. Brit
ish war experts were quoted as saying that
If China armed herself and drilled her SOL
diers properly she could swamp or trample
down with numbers any nation that would
come against her, simply because she could
put SO many millions of soldiers on the
field. To back up their statements they

Much has been said of the Klondike, but
these magnificent brutes, which in the be-

BUTLER Is POPULAR.
Idolized by His Men, Who Would Fol-

New York. Oct. THE military sue
cession in South Africa is still uncertain,
says the London correspondent of the
Tribune, and the wal office is non-com-
initial on the subject. Gen. Buffers pop
ularity among the soldiers who fought
under him cannot be questioned. An Of
ficer who has barely arrived in London
from Natal says that every man who
served under Butler has absolute faith
in him as q general and would have gone
anywhere with him. Not one word of
criticism was ever heard from the Natal
field forces against Gen. Butler whose
GOODNESS was considered phenomenal. His
only rival possessing these qualities was
Col. Th~Orneycroft, a giant in stature,
who was one of the heroic figures of the
campaign Notwithstanding Lord Roberts
censure in the Spion Kop affair." Thorn
eycroft on one occasion had a cigar shot
out of his mouth While he was smoking
it, and the next minute had lighted an
other without changing color. This Off
Ger just from Natal also states Gen. Rob-

that there will be continual trouble unit

The death Of Sims Reeves on Thursday
last. at Worthing, removes an idol of the
British public. who for thirty years
eclipsed any prima donna of these days.
Lengthy obituaries and "reminiscences of
the famous tenor appear on all sides.
But a pathetic feature connected with
his death has quite escaped attention.
Reeves caught a chill a few days
and it developed into bronchitis. But his
condition was SO improved Thursday
morning that he was not believed to be
in danger. Mrs. Reeves, who is many
years younger than the deceased tenor.
to whom she was married in 1895, after
the death of his first wife. left her hus-
band in Il modest home in Worthing to
sing in London for the benefit of the
survivors. Just as Mrs.
Reeves commenced singing kathleen
Mavourneen,' a telegram was received
at the theater announcing the death of
Sims Reeves. When the song was
finished and the applause was at its
height. the news of her husbands death
was brought to Mrs. Reeves. but the
audience, ignorant of this behind he
scene tragedy. kept up the applause. The
widow was o from the theater on
the verge of collapse.
Lady William Beresford (formerly
Lillian Duchess of Marlborough. has
brought action against the young Duke
of Marlborough to recover the money
which she spent in improving Blenheim
palace during the lifetime of the last
duke. The matter came up originally
when the nrpSpnt duke SllrrpnIaH 70 the
title. but owing to the friendly relations
existing between the duke and his step
mother it was temporarily arranged.
Since the dukes marriage to ConSuelo
vanderbilt. 1t is reported, an eStranSe-
nent has grown up between Lady Beres-
ford and her Stepson. On more than
one occasion, it is said, the oun Ameri-
can duchess ubb her countrywoman
lady Beresford was formerly Mrs. Louis
Hammersley of New York;, until the
latter determined she could not submit
to such treatment any longer. and she
now asks the law to compel he. stepSon
to return the amount she spent on Blen-
helm. Another aristocratic lawsuit which
will shortly be heard in camera, is the
application as already cabled to the AS.

Anelesey to have her marriage to the
marquis declared null. They only be-
came man and wife in 1888, but it was
strictly a marriage of convenience II
between cousins, arranged for the sake
of inheriting properly which. otherwise,
could not have been touched by either of
them. They both agreed to live their
own lives. Apparently this extraordi-
nary arrangement did not work we'll in
more ways h one. 1t is asserted tina
the marquis agreed to give his wife S25,-
600 the first year and $50, 900 the second
year., and SO on until the allowance
reached $500 a year. However the al
legged allowance was stopped almost i'm
mediately. Lady Anglesey, who de-
scribes herself otherwise Chetwynd,"

of the bargain and it is rumored if sue
