POPULAR IN LONDON.
No Man Has More Friends Than
Bishop Wilmington Ingram.
Interesting Personality of the Young
English PreIate Who VIII Preach
the Coronation Sermon for
King Edward.

There are several eminent and dig
nitied English prelates who have not
yet recovered from the shock they sus-
tanned when the announcement was
made recently that Very Rev Winning
ton Ingham-better known as the
'slum bishop"-had been selected by
King Edward to preach at his corona
tion.
There was a rather similar feeling
of astonishment in the same quarter
when, the post of bishop of London
having been made vacant by the death
of DR.. Creighton year ago, Ingham,
who was looked upon as a mere youth,
was named as his successor; for al
though the formal appointment was
as usual made by Lord Salisbury, it
was generally understood that the
king had expressed a decided wish in
the matter. At the time of his promo
tiOn TO the bishopric of London, which
is one of the most important in the
Church OF England, DR.. Ingram occu-
pied the post of suffragan bishop of
Stepney, the last of the several ec-
clesiastical positions which he has held
in the East end" and in discharging
the duties of which he endeared him
self as perhaps no other clergyman in
London to the wretched folks who live
there.
Stepney, like Bethnal Green, of
which DR.. Ingram formerly was rector,
and Spitaltields, of which he once was
rural dean, is one of the poorest-and
ickedest-divisions of Whitechapel,
but DR.. Ingram was just as proud of
his parishioners as if they had been
the greatest aristocrats in Mayfair
He was not merely their bishop. he
was their friend; and nothing used to
delight him more than to be right
among them as man to man. Work

BILLED AS FREIGHT.
Young Mans Strange Trip from
Kansas City to Chicago.
ArduOus Journey Made as the Result
OF silly Wager-TO the Rail-
road Company He Was
Sack Of Potatoes.

billed as a sack of potatoes, a Young
man arrived in Chicago the other day
from Kansas City tied up in a sack
For three days and a half he had been
confined in the sack and during that
time he had travelled close 10 eco miles
IN freight car. The sack which COW
cred him was inclOsed in an open fruit
case.
The traveller, who is Martin J. Klans-
digger, a machinist of Kansas CITY, was
nearly famished when he was cut from
his prison at the Chicago q North
western freight house by friend who
had been waiting for a day and a half
in Chicago for him to arrive.
Klansdigger began his journey with
only quart of water and two pounds
Of crackers in the sack with him. this
being a condition of the wager which
caused him to make the perilous trip.
When released Klansdigger was nearly
blinded by the dust which had crept
into the sack and his throat and mouth
were so parched that he could hardly
speak, his little cask of water having
been spilled after he had been on his
journed only a day.
For nearly three days, therefore, he
had been without water and he stated
when he was able to talk that had it
not rained he would certainly have
died of thirst. During most of the
storm the car in which he was packed
was sidetracked out in some small
country town and the water came
through a crack in the roof and fell on
the sack. The burlap became quite wet
and he was thus enabled to suck from
the cloth few drops which allayed his
thirst
The trip was made as the result of n
wager between himself anl a buffet
keeper of Kansas City. The amount Of
the wager was $780, The conditions
The Washington bee., 1902-04-12

were that he should arrive in Chicago
in less than four days, that he should
be allowed to carry only quart of wa
ter and two pounds of crackers with
him and that he should not be discov-
cred by any Of the wUrkmen or train
men that handled him.
He was not discovered and it was not
until after his friend who came to Chi
cago TO receive him, Charles Manning,
had presented an order and received
the potatoes" that the workmen in
the freigh house knew what was in the
package. Manning, with the aid Of an
eXpressman, carried the crate with his
freight out on the sidewalk and when
Manning's voice was heard by Klans-
digger the man in the bag shouted
family:
For heavens sake cut that sack
quick and let me out. I'm dying Of
thirst"
Manning lost no time and tearing
away the SLIGHT bars Of the crate he
slashed open the sack and released the
woe-begone man within. A couple of
workmen had followed Manning. the
expressman and the burden to the door
and when they heard the voice from
within and saw the man emerge from
the sack they did not remain 10 seek
an explanation.
Klansdigger was glad enough to get
out of the bag and Manning was thor
oughly happy to greet him. Give me
a drink, quick" said Klansdigger, "and
then take me 10 some place where 7
can get cleaned up"
81 would not have that experience
again." he continued, for ten times

a winner. She showed it to several of
her friends and they all agreed it was
splendid effort. On the great night
she and he'd escort went over to the
hall on the street car. There was a
big crowd about the entrance, but they
climbed the stairs and she left her
wraps in the cloakroom on the second
floor.
There was still another fight of
stairs to be climbed;and when they got
TO the entrance 10 the ballroom they
were stopped by big crowd of small
boys which was gathered close about
the door in a dense mass.
She and her escort pressed into the
crowd as far as they could go, but
they were caught in the jam and de-
tanned for several minutes. Finally
they got through into the room and
she began To look for the applause
which she was sure would greet her
appearance Instead people began to
laugh, says the Chicago Tribune.
Il wish" she said to her escort, you
would look me all over and tell me
what is the matter"
The man did as he was hidden.
81 am sorry" he said, "but somebody
has eaten most of your costume.

we were waiting in the hall At any
rate, most of the popcorn and candy
is gone from the back of your dress"
The Washington bee., 1902-04-12

among the men and boys was his great
est hobby and he formed several $50
cial clubs" that became rather famous
and, half the time, he was off on ex-
cursiOns to the country or the sea-
shore with grimy but eXultant con-
tingent of his young barbarians"
from Brick lane of Houndsditch. Civ
ing them, perhaps, the first glimpse
they ever had of the ocean or of green
fields.
He often held open-air services IN
the slums, notably in the large open
space in front Of St. Luke's, Spital-
fields, almost across the road from the
! entrance to Dorset street, where sew
eral of the Ripper" murders took
place, and which is known as the wick
eldest street in London" Ever since
he was raised to the dignity of the
bishop of London, at the request of the
poor people who are so fond of him
and so loath to give him up, the di-
vine, whose office entities him to sit
in the house of lords, made a visit to
the East side, and, standing in his
white surphce in the middle of a big
crowd of shabby coster boys, factory
girls and mothers with unWashed ba-
bies in their arms, preached them
sermon of which the lowest of them
could understand every word. He used
jestingly to tell his poor people" how
busy attending TO his various paro-
chial duties kept him, and delighted
them by picturing himself hurrying to
an appointment on top of a halfpenny
bus or tramcar, or eating his lunch
in third-class carriage on the under
ground. In the course of a little talk
which he gave at the opening of d re
formed public house" n the East end
the other day, he said that the addi-
tiOnal duties that had come TO him
with his new position were so numer-
Gus that he had TO set up a carriage,
so they would miss him from the bus
tops, but he promised that if any one
of them who saw him driving in his
new equipage would hail him and ex-
plain that he was one of his old friends
he would be glad to give him a lift.
He added that many East end saloons
had signs describing them as good
pull-up for carriers" and suggested
that over the reformed club" be
placed one saying "a good puIl-up for
bishops"
1t is no wonder that Dr. Ingram has
been able to make even some of the
toughest citizens of Spitalfelds re-
spect and esteem him. for he is the
embodiment of muscular Christian
ity." His favorite recreations are not
chess and botany, but golf and BIZ
cycling and playing handball, or
"fves." as it is called in England. The
first sight that struck the eye on en-
tering the bishops former headquar-
ters at amen court" near st. PauPs
cathedral, was a bundle of muddy golf
clubs and a tennis racquet, and at
historic Fulham palace. which is his
episcopal residence as bishop of Lon
don, Dr.. Ingram has set aside large
room in the cellar to play "fVes" III.

When the lawyers n politicians
get to thinking about this matter in its
larger relations they will probably
coIne to the conclusion that there is
something besides a question of local
politics in this matter of the so-called
imagine, the extinction of competition,
but such a marshaling of commercial
forces and such an organized concen-
tration of commercial power as will
enable this great system OF transpOrta-
ton, traversing the northern belt OF
the temperate zone, which nature has
marked as the chief path of
successful competition with the rival
systems which are ~endeavoring to at
tract this great tide of transmundane
to more southern attitudes,
and that, whatever technica objec-
lions the lawyers may find or fancy
they find in the mint and cummin'
of the statutes, it is in conformity
with that great economic law, to which
all statutes must ultimately yield the
right Of way, that through ~concentra-
