Colonel Shaws name is one of those which
appears on the unpretentious monument on
Soldiers Field. There is a brief, vivid refer
ence to him in the first address:
He was of a very simple and manly nature
steadfast and affectionate, human to the last
degree-without much ambition except to do his
plain duty. You should have seen Robert Shaw
as he, with his chosen officers, led away from
Boston his black men of the 9th Massachusetts
amid the cheers of his tOWnsmen Presently
he took them up to the assault Of Fort Wagner,
and was buried with them there in the trench.
In the speech for the Shaw monument there
are number of pictures Of this light hearted,
gravely conscientious and intrepid drill mas
ter and fighter. The fever heat of excitement
that followed the first call to arms in 81 was
the outbreak of the period of doubt when the

tiles which attended his ministry il
Brooklyn DIR. Talmage made the an
nouncement that he would give ur
holding a regular pastorate and devote
himself to evangelical work. Later
however, he reconsidered tins intention
and accepted call to the First Pres
byterian Church of Washington.
While he preached in Washington
TO large congregations, he failed tc
arouse the enthusiasm which attended
his ministry in Philadelphia and
Brooklyn. This was probably attri.
butable in a large degree to the more
conservative character of the popula-
tion, and may have been due to some
extent to the fact that Or. Talmage be.
came more and more absorbed in reli-
gious journalism.
Aftor preaching in Washington fol-
four years DIR. Talmage, on March 8,
1899, resigned the pastorate of the First
Presbyterian Church, giving as his rea-
son his desire TO devote himself exclu-
si> ely to religious journalism and the
more general work in the cities." Since
that time his reputation has been
somewhat on the wane, for while his
sermons in the newspapers have been
widely read, the personal element
which constituted 80 large factor in
his success has been lacking.
DIR. Talmage came of family
which had a predilictlon for the mlnis-
try. -Four of his brothers received the
honored title of doctor Of divinity.
John Nm Talmage won fame as a
missionary In China, and James and
Goyn Talmage were both preachers
of ability. A fifth brother, Da,lel
Talmage, was merchant.
DIR. Talmage was married three
times. His first wife was Miss
Avery, of Brooklyn. She bore him
two children. She was drowned IN the
Schuylkill River, at Philadelphia, in
the early sixties. In May, 1868, he
was married to Miss Susan White
more, of Greenpoint, Long Island.
She bore him five children. She died
AT Dansvllle, N. Y, in August, 1895.
She was wealthy in her own right, and
left the bulk of her fortune, estimated
at 5000, 900, to her husband.
DIR. Talmage's third wife, who sur
wives him, was Mrs. Eleanor Collier,
of Allegheny City, Pa. She was the
widow of Judge Charles w. Collier,
and woman of wealth. She was
much younger than DR.. Talmage, be-
ing at the time of their marriage, in
January, 1898, but DO years of age,
while he was in his 9th year.
Since his resignation as pastor of
the First Presby yterian church, of
Washington, DIR. Talmage has contln-
ued his residence in that city. 1t VAS
from his handsome home on Massa-
chusetts avenue that his daughter,
Miss Maude Talmage, was married

THE SENATE DIFFERS
WITH THE HOUSE.

The Sugar Trust Advocates
Want to XIII the Cuban Reci-
procity Bill.
The Washington correspondent of
the Atlanta Constitution describes the
situation in Congress as follows:
Evidence of purpose to prevent

believed the majority of the Cuban re-
lations committee will favor his resolu-
tion, and that its adoption will mean
that no action upon the Cuban bill will
be taken, as the investigation can be
strung out to any length. There is the
best of authority for the statement that
o majority of the Cuban committee is
opposed to any reciprocity bill.
Senator Teller's resolution is as fol-
lows:
" Whereas it has been currently re-
ported that nearly the entire crop of

as the sugar trust,' which is the prin-

United States, and that any concession
given to the raisers of cane sugar IN
the land Of Cuba or any measure in
tended for their relief by admitting
their sugar at reduced rates of duty
into the United States will only benefi

will receive no real benefit from sucl

The animal keepers in the Lincoln
Park Zoo, Chicago, went fishing few
days ago, and had reasonably good
luck. They caught about 10000 gold
fish and 10000 of other varieties-
mostly German carp, supfish and bull.
heade--which were taken from the
pond in the park. The object of the
fishing party was threefold-to pre-
serve the lives Of the goldfish, which
were being eaten by the larger varie-
ties; to provide a change Of diet for
such of the animals as eat fish, and to
give wOrkmen chance to drain and
clean the pond.

OIL WELLS ON FIRE.
In the Beaumont Field All the Tanks on
the Keish-Ward Tract Have
Been Burned.

Beaumont, Tex, Sept. 13.-The fire
In the oil fields is still raging. Hig-
gins 37,0O0-barrel tank is burning;
Woods gusher is shooting a column
CT flame so feet high; gas escaping
from other wells is burning. The fire
has been confined to the. Keith-Ward
tract, on which all the tanks have
been burned. The damage thus far
is estimated to be 100000.
Careless work on the part OF a
white man caused the disaster. The
man, whose name has not been
learned, went into the settling tank
of the Keith Ward tract on Spindle
Top, with lighted lantern, and an
explosion followed. The man es-
capped with serious burns but a mo-
ment later the tank burst and the
blazing oil spread over the Keith
Ward tract, which comprises ten
acres. Derricks were ignited and
burned like tinder.
The oil field is about four miles
southeast of Beaumont. It's area
does not exceed $50 acres and prac-
tically all of the wells are on what
are known as Spindle Top Heights
and Gladys City.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept. 15-Rey.
DR.. Henry Homer Washburn, rector
of Christ Episcopal church, in the
presence of President Roosevelt and
his family and congregation that
filled the church to overflowing, yes
terday preached a sermon in which
he devoted considerable attention to
possibility of danger coming by and
through the unguarded use of
wealth concentrated in the hands of
a few and of which he also stated
that '.if ever circumstances indicat ted
that one was placed providentially
in. the executive chair of the nation,
then the circumstances that attend
ed the promotion Of Mr.. Roosevelt
so Indicated"
Yesterday was the first anniversary
of the death of President Mckinley
and the president had requested Mr..
Washburn to hold memorial services.
The first part of the rector's ser
mon was devoted~to a eulogy upon
the life and character of the mar
tyred Mckinley and to this the presi-
dent listened attentively. But when
in the second part of the sermon Mr..
Washburn took occasion to speak of
the possibility of danger coming
through certain trusts, and also to
laud the president, Mr.. Roosevelt be-
came restive. His face colored and
'he plainly showed signs of disaP-
proval of the rector's utterances.
at the conclusion of the sermon he
turned to Mrs. Roosevelt, who sat be-
side him, and whispered: "He should
not have done that"
Kansas G. A. r. Posts Hold Exercises
Topeka, Kan, Sept. 15.-The prin-

G. A. posts held Mckinley memo

monies in the G. A. r. were the re-
suit of special order issued last
week by Department Commander
Loomis. The sentiment was ex-
pressed in the Topeka churches that
the observance of the day for memo
rial purposes be regular feature
every year.

ices in observance of the anniversary

mortal services.

CRUSADE AGAINST JOINTS.
Indian Territory judges and Jurors De-
termined to Check the Increasing
Sale of Liquor.

Vinita, I. T., Sept. IA crusade has
been inaugurated by the grand juries
now in session throughout the In
dian territory against the jointists
and ''boot-leggers" engaged in the IL
legal traffic of intoXicants. In no
section of the union are the prohi-
bition laws SO stringent as they
are in the Indian territory and in no
section is so much crime directly
traceable to the traffic in intoxicants.
The congested criminal dockets of
the federal courts in the territory
suggest a large criminal element, yet
in their charges to the grand juries,
the judges in two of the largest
districts stated that 80 per cent. of
these crimes were caused directly
from the. use of intoxicants. The
chances taken by the ''boot-leggers"
from Arkansas, Missouri, and Kansas,
from whom the principal supply is
received, suggests large profits.

Loss WILL BE IMMENSE.


Kalama, Wash, Sept. 15.@The for

stroyed. Oak Point, about 20 miles
below here on the Columbia river,
is totally destroyed.

Many People Made Homeless.
Portland, Ore, Sept. 15.-About 800
people are left homeless in Multi
nomah and C1ackamas counties as a
result of the forest fires which have
ragged for the past week. Fires have
burned over wide scope of country,
but the greatest damage in this state
appears to have been done in these
two counties.
In the fire that destroyed the town
of Palmer, near Bridal Veil, two
boys named Hamilton were caught
while trying to escape from the
flames and burned to death.
The timber losses in C1ackamas
county have been immense and the
whole length of the Clackamas river
presents nothing but vistas of ruined
settlements

Dust from Paris Green That Was
Used to Kill Worms.

Paris, Tex, Sept. ia report has
been received here of a wholesale
poisoning which is said to have oc-
Cured in the Kiamihci valley, I. T..
A farmer recently applied paris green
to the cotton in his fields where the
worms were doing damage. There
had been but little rain since the paris
green was applied. Three or four
