sHORr-LIvED HEROES.
Those of the Spanish War We're But
Little In tho Public Eye.

Those of the Spanish War We're But
Little in tho Public Eye.
1t has been frequently remarked of
late that the fame achieved by those
engaged in the recent war with Spain
has been exceedingly evanescent.
Scarcely one Of them is a hero today.
Admiral Dewey, until he came home,
was one of the most sublime heroes OF
modern times. Then he began to blum
der, and while his achievements in
Manila bay are yet honored he has
descended in great measure from the
high pedestal upon which America
had placed him. The world rang with
the acclaim Of Hobson until he be-
gan his kissing campaign at home,
then he became a public laughing
stock. And SO 1t is all through the
list. No sooner had man been set up
for public worship than his fellow
country men found he was but COM
mon clay, and turned their backs on
him. 1t wasn't so with the heroes
produced by the war between the
north and south, especially with those
who were in favor at the close of the
conflict. Most Of them retain public
respect even down to the present day.
There Is only one way to account for
this difference in the mold Of heroes
During the five years Of civil conflict
men rose and fell and process OF
natural selection went on. At the end
OF the war the men in command OF
the armies Of both sides were there
because they had been tried and found
true. Grant, Sherman and Sheridan,
the three great captains of the federal
cause. and Robert E. Lee. the grand
chieftain of the south. who rose CO.
lossal even in defeat. had triumphed
over all their detractors and their
laurels did not wither away in the
fierce limelight of publicity. If the
war with Spain had been protracted
through a number OF years perhaps
men of large stature would have been
produced, but in that brief struggle
opportunities came only to those who
happened to be in command, with NO
chance for the sitting process to take
place.-Ex.

Huntington Left California Nothing.

Mr.. Huntington's will left nothing
to California He never visited the
state If he could avoid it, for the expe-
rience of his later years was mortifying
and painful. He felt that the people Of
that state were ungrateful for what he
had done for their benefit; that the
newspapers treated him unjustly and
even brutally; that the men whose
prosperity and wealth had come to
them through his efforts and influence
had deserted and betrayed him, and
that the courts. the legislatures, the
city councils and other officials were
always trying to bleed, blackmail or
embarrass him. For several years
Mr.. Huntington could not visit Califor-
MIA because Of indictments pending
against him in the courts for crimes
which are punished by Imprisonment
and heavy penalties, and he never Wis
tied San Francisco without body
guard Of detectives to protect him from
cranks and innocentpeople who were
possessed of a mania that he was re-
sponsible for their losses and suffer-
ings.-Indianapolis News.

Freight Wreck.

Alexander Struthers who was slightly
injured in the head-on collision near
Minturn yesterday arrived home this
morning on delayed No 5 RioGrande
passenger.
The railway men will not talk much
about the disaster, as the wreck was
such gross mistake and those who
were responsible so well thought of that
the men do not care to lay structures on
the man or men responsible.
Alexander Struthers. the engineer OF
the extra freight bound west was taking
his first run on the road as an engineer,
only having passed his examination
few weeks ago.
Train No. GA was running east in two
sections. 1t was understood that the
extra freight had orders TO wait at Min
turn until both sections passed in, but
failing to read orders rightly. Patsy
Collins who vas in charge OF the extra
freight bound west waited until the first
section of train No. 81 WAS in and then
pulled out with the result of head end
collision between his extra and the sec
Ond section of train No. GA.
1t is reported on the streets today that
Patsy Collins takes ali the blame upon
his shoulders for the wreck He either
did not read his orders correctly or read
them and forgot them after the passage
OF first section OF No. GA into the yards
at Minturn.
MIR. Collins is one of the best thought
OF conductors on the third division Of
the RioGrsnde road. He not only en-
joyed the respect OF his superior officers
but of all his co workers on the road.
The engineer of the freight No. GA WAS
Tom Carr and the conductor Gilroy.
Fireman White was quite seriously hurt
and the cars were piled up promiscously
aud in fact to such an extent that no
effort was at once made to clear the
track, but false track was built around
the wreck

DAUGHERTY
Building Up a Machine
Against Foraker.
Expects to Have Something TO Say In
+ the Next Convention.

Marietta, O., Nov. 23.--(Spl)-Hon.
Harry NJ. Daugherty is in the city,
personally as the legal representative
of the company of capitalists who pro-
pose constructing n new electric rail
way from this place to Lowell, Ohio,
but it develops that he has another
object In view, one that has politics
in 1t.
Immediately upon his arrival Mr..
Daugherty closeted himself with the
publishers of the Marietta Register,
who are his recognized representatives
here, and while he himself would say
nothing as to what was done in the
conference, one of the parties thereto
admitted that State politics was dis
cussed
There can be no denying the fact
that MIR. Daugherty is building up or
ganiZatlons in the various counties
Of the State with the hope Of con-
trolling not only the gubernatorial
nomination in the next Republican
State convention, but also the next
Legislature, which will choose sue,
cessor to Senator Foraker. AS evil
dence of this, secret plans are being
made for the purpose of defeating
for denomination Representative Mid.
dleswart, of this county, and Senator
Bright, of this district. both of whom
are serving their first terms and are
candidates for reelection.
In the event OF Daugherty being
successful in controlling the State
convention he is to be either nominated
himself or will nominate one of his
friends for Governor, and in the lat
ter case he is to appear as a candi-
date for the United States Senatorship
against Senator Foraker.
The appearance of Mr.. Daugherty
has set the politicians all agog, and
from now on there promises to be a
desperate fight for supremacy.

No Wonder He Fled.

A tall, solemn looking young man
entered the restaurant with a mild,
apologize air and seated himself ut
a vacant table near the middle of the
room. 1t was evident that he dreaded
to intrude. He wanted to get as far
away from other people as possi-
BILE. He even blushed painfully when
he gave his order, and the most casual
observer could have told that he was
bashful.
Just rs his dinner was brought to him
a buXom looking woman with seven
small children entered the place. The
head waiter swept the field with his
eye, pounced down upon the table
where the young man had sought soli-
tude, motioned to the mother, who
clucked to the chickens, and q mo-
ment later they were all around that
one table.
That young mans face was a serial
story.
Other people entered the restaurant,
glanced at the group, smiled signifi-
cantly, and seated themselves.
''ue doesn't look it, does he?" queried
a pleasant faced old lady in an audible
whisper.
"She looks at least ten years older
than he," murmured a girl at the
next table.
He flew to the hatrack, tossed a half
crown to the waiter and tried to go
through the door without opening it.

RICHEST MAN In THE WORLD
The romantic interest aroused by the
determination of the young Viscount
Belgrave to remain in the field in
South Africa, though he has just in
herited the richest estate in Great Bri-
tain, is increased by recent discovery.
1t appears that the 600 acres in the
heart of London which constitute the
chief wealth of the Duke of Westmin-
ster, came into the family as the result
of runaway love match made by an
ancestor of the duke. In 1856 Sir
Thomas Grosvenor fell in love with
the pretty daughter of Ebury Manor,
house standing far without the city
and surrounded by FIVE large pastures.
This property became the dover of the
bride and gradually London grew up
around it. 1t lay idle, however, until
the first part of this century, when
the great t-grandfather of the new duke,
conceived the idea of building up the
estate with row after row of palatial
houses. The young nobleman who
prefers hard fighting in South Africa
to the enjoyment of great fortune at
home is only 20 years.

A DEMAND ON THE SULTAN.-Says
a Washington dispatch of the l1th in
staut.
In the diplomatic mail pouch which
will 90 out from the state department
tomorrow will be lot of instructions
to Oscar Straus, the United States
minister at Constantinople, directing
him to make positive demand on the
Sultan g government for the payment of
$40, 900 indemnity for the assassination
of Frank Lentz, an American citizen.
Lentz was from Pittsburg. He was an
expert bicyclist, and was engaged by
Outing to travel through Armenia on
his wheel. While proceeding through
that country he was shot and killed
by Turkish soldiers. The Turkish
government has acknowledged its liza
bility but although pressed 10 do so,
has not paid the indemnity demanded.
Mr.. Lenz was murdered in 1895. Mr..
Straus will be instructed also to press
for the payment of the 100000 de-
manded by the United States on &C.
count of losses sustained by American
educational institutions and American
teachers in the Sultan's possessions
during the Armenian troubles several
years ago.
