TRACES AXTELL'S ANCESTRY.
Inquiry Sent to the "Fighting Parson" Of
Royal Oak Mich.

Royal OAK, Mich.
Royal Oak, Mich, Jan. 16.-The Rev.
Joshua ]. AXtell of this place has re-
ceived a letter from The Christian
World Of London, Eng, inquiring into
his genealogy, and he is of the opinion
that it is n step toward securing for
him his rights in the estates of his an
cestors. The AXtells are said to have
vast estates in England.
Tradition has it that at the time Of
Cromwell two brothers, Thomas and
Daniel AXtell, sided with the protector.
Thomas was lord and barrister, own
ing estates In Berthamstead and was
implicated in the execution Of Charles
1. He was tried and acquitted, and
his brother, Colonel Daniel Axtell, as
sisted him to escape to this country.
He settled at Sudbury. Mass. From
his only son, Henry, born in England,
the Rev. j. J. AXtell has descended.
This Is the first effort to trace the gen.
ealogy of the lighting parson, and
is said to tally with the tradition hand
ed down to the preacher by his father.

DepIore the Evidence.

Berlin, Sept. 4.-Most OF the German
papers are of the opinion that it is very
doubtful if Germany can adopt Russia's
suggestions. and they deplors the evil
dence of threatening split in the Euro
pean concert.
One leading Berlin Journal asserts
that Emperor William, while convers-
ing with a group OF officers last Satur-
day evening, said:
"Under no conditions shall we give up
Pekin, not even il every army corps has
to be mobilized.
London, Sept. An. De Blowitz, the
Paris correspondent of the Times. as
serts that the origin OF Russia's decision
to evacuate Peking was her desire to
frustrate the schemes Of Emperor Will
liam and to correct the impression pro-
duced by the Kaiser's speech attribut-
ing to Emperor Nicholas the initiative in
the appointment of Field Marshal Count
Won Waldersee to the command OF the
international troops.
"Russia also desired" says M. De
Blowitz, ito save France from the hard
necessity of placing her troops under
Count Won Walderses. The United
States also was much dissatisfied at the
prospect of it's troops acting under Ger.
man orders.
"If you compare the Russian evacua-
ton proposal with the American plan
for beginning negotiations, before Count
Won Waldersee's arrival, and il you add
to this the prompt adherence OF France,
addressed to the United States. you have
the complete key to the Russo American
mystery"

Both Claims a Win.

Denver, Sept. 4.-The democratic pri-
maries for the selection OF delegates to
the county convention. which occurs
next Friday, were held today and were
hotly contested. There were several
tickets, but only two factions-those led
by Governor Thomas and 7. j. Maloney
respectively-various organizations sup
porting each side. Tonight both sides
are claiming victory. and it said that
there will be contesting delegations from
fully half the precincts in the county.
All kinds Of crooked work is charged
against both sides and there were per-
soual encounters at several polling
places. The factional differences will
have to be settled by the convention.
1t is claimed by the Thomas faction
that they have carried 103 out Of tho 161
precincts.

The Great Fowler.

No statement made regarding the lee
ture OF Bishop Charles h. Fowler, at
the Presbyterian church last night, was
unverifed. That the lecture is one OF
the greatest ever uttered by an Ameri-
can is not placing the value on the lee
ture too extravagantly. There are no
words sufficiently expressive, no adJec-
tiyee too euphonious, no sentences sufti-
cisntly expressive to convey to those
who failed to hear tho bishop, what
they lost by 80 doing.
Grand Junction, like many other towns
is afflicted with quite large class OF
people who are ultra intelligent, who AZ
feet to be literary in all things, but
whenever opportunity is presented to
them to listen to something really great
they are otherwise engaged.
The lawyer who didn't hear it should
have gone to be instructed in his profes-
sion, the doctor in his. the minister in
his, but above all every student who un-
derstAnds why he is attending school
should have heard. in preference to two
years Of historical research the deduc-
tions ON the life and character Of the
greatest American who ever lived.
For two hours and over Bishop Fow-
lsr hold his audience charmed. Not one
word that was uttered by the eminent
divine was left 60 unheeded by his intel
ligent, though not large audience. Lin
coin was presented in such an entirely
new light, that the average reader CON
cluded that what he knew OF the great
commoner was nothing, as compared to
wha. b., did not know.
1t would be useless to attempt tn give
an outline OF the lecture. 1t has been
delivered before the greatest audiences
of this country and is today looked up
op ~ one of the most marvellous lectures
ev.r written by an American.
Az Q gentleman said last night, 1.-The
school beard of any school district in
the country could we'll afford to give
hundred dollars to have that lecture de-
liyered to the children Of it's distinctive
districts." 1t would indeed be money
we'll spent.
1t hardly pays to bring such alecturer
to Grand Junction. Time and time
again efforts have been made to create a
sentiment for first class lecture course,
but it is hardly of any use to do 30, as
the people will not attend lectures.
Bishop Fowler would draw a crowd in
any great intellectual centre in this
country, but he failed to do 80 last night.
He vas we'll advert tised and thers should
have been q crowded house to greet him.
Every man woman and child who was
present last night felt thoroughly repaid
for going to the lecture and would soon

the most masterful minds. not only in

AS prelate he is towering genius,
as an orator the average political
orator sinks into insiRni6cance
beside him. However great We may
think that Wolcott lie as public speak

MONEY FOR COLLEGES.
PRESIDENT ROBERT IL. JONES DIS
CUSSES UNIVERSITY FINANCE.

An informal discussion of Christian
schools and Christian education by Presi-
dent Robert e. Jones, of Hobart college,
Geneva, n, Y, furnished an interesting
Lenten lecture at Christ. church last
night. Dr. Jones spoke of the matter of
education more in the connection which
1t bears to the work OF the Episcopal
church than In its general scope, and re-
ferred to the different institutions sup
ported by that denomination
DR.. Jones commented upon the financial
backing of the various institutions of
learning throughout the country and adj
Vanced the proposition that first-class
university must be supported by a work
ing endowment Of from S., 600 900 to SIS
100000. second-class institution, he
said, could carry on its work with half
as much, while a third-class college or
university was one hose endowment was
less than 81 ,Ge6;06Oa From these conclu-
sions, based upon a careful study of the
situation, he drew the conclusion that
the colleges and schools of the denomina-
ton were insuf1ciently supported. The
five colleges Of the church, he stated, had
endowments aggregating less than 81, $780,
single colleges have all of this amount
and more.
That the schools of the church must
have better support was his conclusion.
He believed that one-tenth Of the money
annually contributed by churchmen to
secular schools would double the working
energy Of UNCONVENTIONAL schools and In
crease their efficiency twofold.

have been filed with the state superin-
tendent by teachers as well as others In
terested In the schools.
The following is a copy of the resolu-
lions adopted by the grand jury:
Whereas. There has been complaints
that the county superintendent Of schools
