sTILL THIRD, BUT HoPEFUL.

What can happen in yachting is H. lustrated by what did happen yester- day. After everybody had become sure that the Independence couldn't do any thing well she did something surpris- ingly well. Though she came in third she led the Constitution at the outer mark and was only beaten by her by a little over two minutes on the run to the finish before the wind. And the Columbia beat the Constitution.
 The Independence had good wind yesterday and was handled in the very best way. Hope is reviving in Boston, and the packers and sailors of the In- dependence are whistling for more wind, in which they think their boat will do even better than she did yester- day. If she should happen to come in first instead of third some day there would be a sensation. In such a trial as that of yesterday she did well to come in as soon as she did.

I was astonished to find that Herzl
 had learned to speak English with
 wonderful huency. Now and then he l falls back on a charming Latinism (such as 'avitate' for "avoid'o, but he expresses himself with surprising lucid- 1ty. The dominant note in his idealism
 IS his confidence. He has faith in his
 faith. He believes through walls of difficulty And this imaginative proph- | ct has in him granite basis of con- | mon sense. He keeps his visions well
 in leash, and prefers to talk of the
 hard, practical side of his vast scheme l for leading the people of Israel back to i the Promised and
 l It is potent force this new pride of race which Herzl has rekindled l was struck by the passionate energy with which he and his comrades protested against the injustice of judging the Jews by their black sheep. The core and heart of the Zionist movement is it's cannonization of the Jew as Jew, it's glorification of the Jews historic heritage, its call to the Jew to emerge from his subterranean hiding places and to stand before the world as a ra- cial unity. ZangWill put this all in a parable. "The Jew in the past he said, has acted like the ostrich. He has buried his head in the sand, with the natural result that the world has
 been tempted to kick the most promi- nent part of his anatomy. Some influ- ential Jews prefer to continue these tactics. But we think the time has come to stand erect"
 And as Mile. Revy sang some of her own wild Hungarian folksongs [ could not help thinking that there is more dy- mamie force in this Jewish renascence than the Gentle imagines. For the Jews, above all races, are idealists. If this great ideal took fire and blaZed through their ranks, who shall say where it would end? But the men who are organizing 1t are very prudent. Herzl deprecates wild apd nebulous aims. He prefers to keep the move- ment on the practical line of an agri- cultural and industrial colony. Yet, in his restless visionary eyes there is @ loftier dream more splendid concep- tion, the immortal image of 1rsael nation, and not the least of the nations of the earth.

----------------- ------ -'------ = ----------- 4 GHEERING PROSB ECT.

| Some who have considered the billion dollar steel trust have feared that there was danger of the permanent exhaus- tion of the iron ore deposits of the United States Special attention has
 been paid to this feature by the Geolog- ical Survey experts, with the result that it is announced that there is little or
 no likelihood of the supply running out
 at an early date. Most of the easily
 wrought known mines or those pro
 ducing the best or most desirable grades
 of ore which are conveniently accessi-
 ble for consumption in existing blast
 furnaces have been secured by the big
 trust There are, however, important
 mines owned or operated independent
 of consolidation. Material advance in
 the price of the mineral will encourage
 the rehabilitation or the development of mines which are inactive or operated
 upon a restricted scale and also the
 opening of deposits heretofore un- wrought. Such a condition will also se- cure transportation of ores from local- ities now considered too remote for eco- nomical use Many deposits of brown hematite and red hematte ores, which have been wrought on small scale, con be at,erented and the production cheapened, thereby materially swelling the country's output. The basis treat ment of iron, which is advancing rap idly, may also be expected to extend the limitations which have been placed up- on ores for steel production. In the central and western portions of the country there are important deposits of excellent iron ore which await the in- spection of the steel and iron industry, or transportation facilities, and if these ores cannot be conveyed to exist ing plants then furnaces will be placed nearer to the ores as rapidly as the country's demand makes such course advisable.

J. EFT.


 The action of the Ohio Democrats is decidedly significant. They not only did not mind Bryan's directions to put none but Kansas City platform men on guard, but they didn't mind anything about him. After the platform which was adopted had been read to the con- vention MT. W. l.. Finley offered a substitute reaffirming the Kansas City platform, and expressing continued confidence in William J. Bryan. This substitute received the votes of six of the $50 delegates who composed the convention.
 Six from $50 leaves 944, and 944 from $50 leaves Bryan and leaves him badly Only the other day he was delivered of the following: Do not allow a man to be placed upon any committee-pre- clnet, county, State or national-unless he is a believer in the Kansas City platform. If man opposed to the Kansas City platform is sent as a dele gate to any convention he should be bound by instructions and should have associated with him sufficient major- ity who are sound on the platform. If a man objects to instructions, leave him at home. No Democratic delegate will object to an expression from the voters whom he seeks to represent.

HERZL.
A Twentieth Century Moses.

A year ago, while was drinking af-
 ternoon tea in London drawing room
 entered a tall, 1.-the man, with coal black hair, beard and mustaches, rest l less visionary eyes, and q nervous
 mouth, twitching with half sad humor.
 I did not know him, but he magnetized
 me immediately. I intuitively divined 1 the intensity of his personal force, the
 rich radiance of his character, the pas
 sionate idiosyncrasy of his soul At
 that time Zionism was a mere shibbo- 1 leth to me, one of the husks that are
 blown about the social and palitical 1 highway. But the moment I saw this modern Moses, this practical prophet, Zionism became a vivid reality For I recognized in him at once one of those | apostles who work miracles by the pow CT of their will and the empire of their egotism. At that time Herzl could not speak word of English After a few commonplaces he drifted away again, leaving me profoundly interested in his romantic genius He had done noth- ing, said nothing, but he had been him self. Now, the man who can be himself in drawing room is rare. And this mans self was so bizarre so disturb ing, so strange, that I caught myself wondering at its persistence in my mind Why should I keep in my mamo- " so clear 8 picture Of Herzl when so many other men and women fade out of it like shadows of shadows?
 Well. the other day I met Herzl again in another darwiug room-the drawing room of the Hotel Cecil. Here it was Who driftgl in, and the first thing that disentangled itself from the rout of men and women was the old restless visionary gaze that had haunted me be- fore The Jewish leader was holding a kind of levee, with lyrical interludes in the shape of songs by his Hungarian compatriot Mile Aurelia Revy. a young prima donna who has won golden praise with the Carl Rosa Opera com pany and at Covent Garden. My talk with Herz1 was laced with musical out bursts. He expounded his gorgeous dreams to the sound of airs by Wagner, Schubert, Bach and Gounod. I think the music was as worthy of the dreams as the dreams were worthy of the mu- sic. If all idealist politics were con- ducted thus, if all humanitarian visions were set to music. the world would not be so drab and dull.

S.lMIj OLD STORY.

The British government has not es- caped the usual experience that goes with war. It has been cheated in the vast purchases of horses made in Hun The original contra ctor, it is said, sold out to a Breslau speculator, who made dealer, who made rare collection of equine curiosities. The animals were supposed to be all year-olds, but actually were of all ages, from three years up. Some of them were blind and some of them were mares in foal. Out of the first patches great numbers, practically one-half, were promptly re- jected by represent tatives of the British War Office but in the end, by some sort of hocus- pocus, nearly all of them were passed and sent to the front, where, as was to be expected, they died like flies. The profits of the original contractors, of course, must have been enormous, although there is no way of estimating them exactly. Report says that the British government paid four hundred 1orins for each animal, whereas the vast majority of them were bought for about 110 or 125 dorins apiece. The matter has been made the subject of inquiry in the House of Commons, and the scandal is likely to be probed Whether there has been actual corrup- tion on the part of any British army officers or veterinaries remains to be proved.

There are advantages and disadvan- tages in oil-sprinkled roads, according to the experience of the Park Commis- sioners in San Francisco. The dust is certainly laid, and driving in the parks where the roadways have been thus treated is freed from the discomfort of dirt in the eyes and lungs of drivers along the highways is as green as if daily rain washed. Complaints of the horse-owners are confined to the in- ilrrv done their lothine and their ve- hicles by the flying bits of oil-soaked sand. This last the commissioners promise to remedy When the roads have become sufficiently packed they will be covered with a thin layer of white sand There is a hint in this last for road-makers elsewhere, as sprink- ling with oil instead of water has be- come widespread this summer particu- larly in the South, where the good roads movement is enjoying belated popularity Another hint to be bor- rowed from the Californians is in us- ing the oil hot, whereby the mat erials of the roadbed are practically cement ed

A little more than a year ago Profess s3or John Fisle, who died the other day, told how he carried on his life, as fol- lows: Always sit in draft when I < find one wear the thinnest clothes I can find winter and summer, catch cold once in three and four years, but not severely and prefer to work in a cold room, 55 to 60 degrees. Work the larger part of each twenty -four hours, and by day or night indifferently Scarcely ever change word once written, eat when hungry, rarely taste coffee or wine or smoke cigar, but drink two or three quarts of beer each day and smoke pipe all the time when at work. Never experienced the feeling of disnclnation to work and, therefore, never had to force work. If I feel dull when at work a half hour at the piano restores normal mental condition, which is one more argument for the hygienic and recuperative ef- fleets of music

"Oh, something on the line of Les Miserables,' only a little more lively" replied the young man.
