Aubrey's Ride WINS the Greatest
Physical Achievement Ever ACCOM-
4 plished In This Country-Erontiers-

The greatest physical achievement
ever accomplished in this country vas
the ride Of r. X. Aubrey from the
plaza of Santa Fe, N. NJ. to the Pub
lie square at Independence, No., O dis
lance OF nearly 800 miles, through a
country Inhabited by warlike Indians,
a large part of which Vas then a san
dy desert. 1t was about the year
1851 that Aubrey gave his wonderful
test Of human endurance, before which
all other attempts of the kind pale
into insigniicance. He was a short,
heavy set man, SO years of age. in the
prime Of manhood and strength. His
business for ten years as a Santa Fe
raider had made him perfectly ia

man, and, although there were great
riders in those days, none OF D., them
cared to dispute the palm with Au-
brey. 25> go - T.
On a wager Of $1,000 he undertook
to ride alone from Santa Fe to indie
pendence inside of six days. 1t was
without a thought of fear that he un-
dertook the terrible feat. 1t was to be
the supreme effort Of his life, and lie
sent half a dozen Of the swiftest horses
ahead, to be stationed at different
points for use in the ride. He left
Santa Fe in a sweeping gallop, and
that vas the pace kept up during near.
~ every hour Of the time until he fell
3fainting from his foam covered horse
in the square at independence. Nc
man could keep up with the rider, and
he would have killed every horse in
the west rather than have failed in the
undertaking. It took him just 5 days
and 10 hours to perform the feat, anC
> it cost the lives of several of his best
horses.
After being carried into a room in the
old hotel at Independence Aubrey lay
for 4S hours in a dead stupor before hi
came to his senses. He would never
have recovered from the shock had Il
not been for his wonderful constitu
ton. The feat was unanimously re
garded byzwestern men as the creates
exhibition of strength and endurance
ever known on the plains. /.
The ride of Jim Moore. a noted from
,tiersman OF the pioneer days, is alse
worthy of mention. Moore was a mar
Of almost perfect physique. In fact, By
military standards he was a model

To Prevent Explosions.

Rear Admiral Charles O'Neil, chief
OF naval ordnance, in order to prevent
further explosions OF -perc-
ing shells in the I3-inch guns on battle
ships, has directed that all semi-armor-
piercing shells under manufacture shall
be made with thicker walls and with a
gas check.
Rather than have another premature
explosion, he will probably request the
department to order that these piercing
shells be used without the powder
charges, in target practice.
In regard to the report that one OF
the forward I3-inch guns of the battle
ship Alabama had been disabled in the
recent gun test off the Virginia capes,
Rear Admiral O'Neil said that. the in
Jury is not a serious one, that the gun
will not have to be taken from the ship,
and that at present the bureau does not
contemplate making any repairs on the
gun at all, as is usefulness has not been
impaired. Admiral O'Neil says that a
shell exploded within the bore of the
gun and Scared it somewhat but did
no serious injury.

He urged his countrymen to initiate

"Testless enterprise of the Americans,
their devouring anxiety to improve ex-
listing machinery and methods and the
apparent impossibility of accumulating
any fortune, however gigantic, which
shall satisfy or be sufficient to allow OF
leisure and repose."
Later in his address Lord Rosebery
observed; "A disdain OF hnality and an
anxiety for improving on the best seems
almost a disease in America; but in
Great Britain we can afford to catch the
complaint, at any rate in a mitigated
form, and give in exchange some OF our

NATIONAL CAPITAL AFFAIRS.
Over I1n0a. 600 Stud.nts.

About 2I per cent. of the total popu-

lie schools and per cent. of the rest
attend private schools, according to the
annual report of the Commissioner OF
Education.
The grand total in all schools, ele-
mentary, secondary and higher, public
and private, for the year ended
July 1, 1900, was I7,o2o7Io pupils,
an increase of 49, 348 over the
previous year OF this number
the enrolment in public institutions
supported by general and local taxes
was Is,443,462. Counting in special in
stitutions, such as evening schools, In
dian schools, schools connected with
asyums, reform schools, and other in
stitutions more or less educational in
their character, increases the total num-
Der by half million pupils.
The statistics, as interpreted by the
commissioner show a uniform concen-
sus OF public opinion throughout the
country in favor of providing secondary
education at public cost. Public high
schools have increased from 2s26 in
