Incumbency of Lord PauncefOte rs
British AmbasSadOr.


WASHINGTON, March 1.-The state
department has not been notified of any
purpose on the part of the British gov
eminent to further extend the incum-
bency of Lord Pauncefote as the British
ambassador to this capital 1t is known
that the ambassador himself is not in
formed upon this point, and in conse-
quence he has made all arrangements to
depart for England at the end of this
month. The ambassadors term has been
twice extended beyond the period of sery-
ice regarded as the maximum by the
British government. The extensions here
tofore made were on account of the am
bassador's knowledge of the Issues in
Volved in the Venezuelan contention, and
in the Boring sea negotiations. Now he
figures as one of the principals in the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty, a subject still
open, and regarded as fully of equal i'm

An examination of the building Of the
Great Western Stove Repairing company,

by fire SatuI day evening, shows that the
total loss will be much heavier than was
estimated yesterday. A conservative esti-
mate places the total loss at $11,5UO, Of
which $1,000 Is on the building itself and
TO,OCO upon the stock. The company

The Wickedness of the Winerooms"
was the subject of Rev. ]. NJ Cleary's
address at st. Charles Catholic church
last night. He said in part:
The wineroom in connection with the
licensed saloon is in my judgment an
unnitgated evil. 1t should not be per-
mitted to flourish under the sanction of
law.
ITO the wineroom inexperienced girls,
foolish girls-of whom the number seems
TO be leglon--reckless girls, hayward and
wicked girls are easily enticed for no
good or noble purpose. The wineroonl
would soon disappear if young women
had the good sense and the sturdy virtue
TO refuse to expose their maidenIy
modesty to danger and dishonor. No one
is so much TO blame as are the young
women themselves for the popularity of
the seductive wineroom."

GIVE THE FIREMEN ROOM
TO WORK.

The poor firemen of this city
have a hard time. If they can't
make their way to a burning place
on account of a jostling throng
of sight-seers in front of it some
of these same people are very
talkative concerning what they
would do were they in the fire.
mems place. They never recog-
nize that they add to the acres of
humanity that form a blokdae
against thd fire department. Give
the firemen a fair chance by al
lowing them all available space to
do their work. Their lot is no
easy one and it should not be
made any harder than what it
really is. Not long ago an engine
stopped about two yards beside a
water plug and several minutes
elapsed and still the plug could
not be found. flow would the poor
fire faddle find that plug-which
served as a grand stand to orna-
ment a chap, not to speak of the
crowd that surrounded it-had he
not asked for what he wanted is
a matter of conjecture. Probably

have it's advent in the fire de-

REPUBLICANS OPPOSING RE-
PUBLICANISM.

There is certain place in this
community that while it's head
claims to adopt every principle of
Republicanism, worshipping to a
fault at it's shrine, yet is 30 opposed
to such leading pillars of the
grand and edifying Republican
structure as Hon. Judson w. Ly-
ons, Hon. II. A. Rucker, Col
John II. Deveaux, Hon. Walter
H. Johnson Col. w. A. Pledger
and host of others, that a feeling
of distrust has been created among
the leaders that it would be best
not to give this opposing head un-
limited freedom lest he undermine
with dissatisfaction the harmon
ious trend of party affairs.
A Republican who Is by no
means sincere in his actions, and
who keeps up a.continual disturb
ance by using his official aides to
carry out his bidding in opposition
to the good of the party, should
not only lose the respect of party
leaders but should be forced to q
place of harmlessness where he
can regretfully recognize that the
created can not at any time be
greater than the creator, and there
fore the thoughts of the created
should not drift in belligerency of
its creator without the use of the
curbing gear.

SOWING THE SEED OF DIS.
SATISFACTION.

Quietness having for a period
prevailed, a few dlsgruntled and
treacherous officeholders are now
trying with all their might to
SOW the seed of discord in the
party organization. Such selfish
ness as have actuated these fell
lows will fail of purpose and, will
only serve to rebound upon their
own heads the merited disapprov-
al that disloyalty is sooner or
later sure to bring.
When men enter into collusion
to wreck institutions they should
not forget to count up the cost,
and when it is found that the ex-
penditure will far exceed the cost
then it is about time to under
stand that the undertaking will
be an utter failure. But some
fellows care not for the cost, and
it would be we'll that it be clearly
understood that the organization
cares not for such fellows.

who tried to have the baby

appealed to the society to

Col. Ingersoll sent an agent
to the place where Lawrence
was stopping, and later went
himself to see the little
preacher. The colonel look
ed Lawrence over with a crit

"Well, sir, | am going to
stop you from preaching 2"
"No, you WON'T" said the
child, who always has a ready
answer.

Colonel Ingersoll hesitated
a moment, and asked in a
gentler voice:
"And why won't I be
here?"
"You won't be here to
bother me when [ come
back, " was all that Law
renee would say.
Within the year Colonel
Ingersoll passed to the Great
Beyond, and true to the
prophecy, he will not be in
