The first cup of tea drunk in Eng
land was made at Arlington house, a
residence which occupied the site of the
present Buckingham palace. The tea
was brought to England by the Earl
of Arlington, who gave go shtllings a
pound for it in Holland. Pepys re-
corded havi-g drunk his first cup of
tea on the 25th of September, 1860. In
1888 so little was tea known in Ger
many that a writer of that time men,
tons 1t as "black water with an aorid
taste;" and six years later the Musco-
vite ambassador to the court of the
Mogul declined accepting large pres
emit of tea for his master on the ground
that 1t would only be troubling him
with commodity for which he had no
use whatever.

There is now positive assurance that
the draft or the Hay Pauncefote treaty
is almost ready for the Senate, and 1t
is certain to contain these provisions:
II will supersede the Clayton Bulwer
treaty; the principle of neutrality of
The proposed waterway across Near
aqua is guaranteed, the United States
being the sole guarantor; the right to
fortify the canal is secured to the
United States alone. These features,
1t is believed, meet objections which
arose in the Senate when thu original
Hay-Pauncefota treaty was submitted.
To bring about an amicable under
standing between Great Britain and
the United States, so as to permit the
building of the great waterway so es-
sential to American commercial expan-
sion, has been the chief aim recently
OF Secretary Hay and the idea has
been sent out by Washington CORE
spondents tlat after its enactment into
law Mr., Hay will retire from public
life, after career in the diplomatic
service as brilliant as that of any
other American. H~ has recently cele-
brated his 63d birthday and goodly
share of his years have been spent in
the foreign service of his government.
President Lincoln made his acquain,
lance at Springfield, ILL.,, in 1858, where
he began the practice Of law after leav-
Ing Brown university. When Lincoln
went to Washington Hay became his
assistant secretary, and remained with
him until his death. TLen he went to

France as secretary of legation and
later served in the same capacity in
Spain and Austria Hungary. For Ave
years he was editor Of the New York
Tribune and then he removed to Cleye-
land He was Assistant Secretary of
State during a part of the Hayes adj
ministration. President Mckinley sent
him to England as ambassador to the
Court OF St. James In 1897, and upon
the retirement of William R. Day from
the post of Secretary of State in 1898
called Mr.. Hay to that most important
of cabinet positions
In event that the new treaty Is rati-
fed work will be begun on the canal
at once. 1t is not certain, however,
that there is not still considerable op-
position to the treaty. Many Of the
Senators on both sides believe that
there should be no treaty with Eng
land at all-that the document to be,
ratified by the Senate should be moth
ing more nor less than a plain agree
ment on the part of England to abro-
gate the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, which
technically prevented the United States
from building the canal. The Senators.
who take this view may be classed as
the ultra-Americans. They hold that
after the Clayton-Bulwer treaty is abb
rogated no foreign power ON the globe,
has right to demand of our govern
ment how we shall operate our own
canal. They therefore believe that the,
safest course for this country to adopt
is to abrogate the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty and let it go at that

SITS in a wretched little back room in
London, suspected of weaving vast
plots while detectives representing at
least four nations Turk outside watch
ing in vain for some clew on which to
hold him, are more strange and dra-
matte than any of the fiction that has
been written about him. Malatesta is
his own name and his family is one
of the Oldest and most respected in
Italy today. AS the eldest son he in
herited the title of count and would
have come into considerable property
If his family had not disowned him on
account Of his revolutionary tenden-
cies. He has a brother, Henry, who
is in the public service In Italy today.
Malatesta was intended by his
father to be scientist, and after an
excellent education under tutors was
sent to Milan University to prepare
turbulent, headstrong youth, and soon
became the leader of the more restless
spirits at the university. Before he
had time to graduate he was arrested
as the leader of a revolutionary move
ment, and although his people man
aged to get him out Of Jail, they in
formed him that henceforth they
would have nothing to do with him,
unless he changed his views about the
iniquity Of all forms of government.
This Malatesta promptly refused to do,
and was invited by the family to go
and be hanged
He plunged into all sorts of plots
against the Italian government after
that, and for his completely in the
riots of 1898 was imprisoned again.
After his release he went to America
He seems to have spent most of his
time there in quiet conferences with
anarchist leaders. Emma Goldman
and Johann Most were his intimates
-Four years ago he came to London and
has since lived in a soualid district
in the North End known as Islington.
MaIatesta's Work shop.
Malatesta's shop is bare little
place with one or two broken bicycles
about. odds and ends of lead pipe and
few old gas meters. He is a keen
student OF chemistry and electricity
and is said to have one or two electri-
cal inventions that would have
brought him money II he had not been
opposed to the idea of patents. II he
had not been so busy promoting an
archy he might have been as useful a
citizen as his fellow countryman
Marconi. To all seeming he Is one of
the most quiet. mild and peaceable of
men. He is known to have expelled
from authority among London an

too violently.

was slain Malatesta disappeared from
London and turned up in Italy, al
though the police there didn't know OF
IL then. He was back In London by
the time Bresei Lad fired his fatal shot.
Malatesta, Of course, disavowed all
knowledge OF this deed, but had to
admit that he was well acquainted
with Bresci, for the fact was gener-
ally known. He was watched by Lon

Perhaps the most dangerous anarch-
list in the world today is Errico Mala-
tesla, whose address is now London.
There is no reason to suppose, writes a
correspondent of the New York Press,
that this genuine Italian count, who
apparently earns a modest living in
London by mending bicycles and by
doing odd jobs of plumbing and me-
chanical tinkering, occupies a much
more important position than has been
generally assigned to him and knows
considerably more than Emma Cold
man about the murder of President
Mckinley.
Under Police Surveillance.
Malatesta is considered by the de-
partment of criminal investigation at
Scotland Yard to be the real leader of
the organized anarchists In England, a
band numbering between 1000 and
1900 members He is known also to
be in close touch with the anarchist
organizations in America, France and
Italy, and he is suspected by the Lon
don police of being the actual head and
moving spirit or the international ar
filiations of anarchists. He has few
intimate friends here outside of an
archistic circles-or outside of the in
ner circles, at least-and from talks
with some of these l gather that they
fully believe Malatesta to be the an
archist director general.
He is not only watched continually
by the police today. but any one who
undertakes to see him is followed.
Since he settled in London four years
ago he has been so cautious that no
definite charge of melting to violence
could be brought against him.

THE WRONG MAN.

Montpelier, June IA. - Constable
Lackey OF Worcester and Officer Fitz-
gerald OF this city caught up with the
man they were after in Warren, only
to find they had been chasing the
wrong party. Dan Nolan was wanted
for taking horse that did not belong
to him and he was traced to this city.
At Waitsheld or Middlesex smother
man who drove a horse and wagon
that resembled bis crossed the officers
path and they followed him into
Warren. The man proved to be Will
Jabett. The officers returned to this
city and started out again. They
visited Erwin Morse, father in law OF
Nolan, but he was unable to give
them any clue. He thinks Nolan has
gone into New Hampshire. The
horse was owned by F. A. Griswold Of
Morrisville.
