ENGLISH ARMY OFFICERS.
Julian Ralph Scores the Wirepu11ing
Methods of Their Wives.

Julian Ralph Scores the Wirepu11ing
Methods of Their Wives.
In commenting on the retirement Of
Sir Redvers Butler, Julian Ralph says:
'In way, Sir Redvers Butler stands
for the worst faults that poison the
sources of Great Britain's strength and
for the worst defects that weaken her
army. What Butler lacked in capacity
and personal worthiness was made up
to him by the influence of Lady Au-
brey Butler at court. She got him APP
pointed to the chief command at the
opening Of the war, and always after
that, while he messed and bungled at
the front, she kept him in high favor
with the crown and the war Office.
cit is a proud boast of the English
that their wives sit beside their hus-
bands and even speak for them at the
hastings, working hard and shreWdly
among the people as well, to gain votes
for those who aspire to seats in parlia
ment But all the English women Of
brains and ambition do not stop with
this. A few others work their way
the sources of the nations strength by
ceaseless efforts to further the inter-
ests Of their husbands, even when those
husbands are unfit, even when they
the wives) possess nine-tenths Of the
energy and brains in the conjugal part
nership.
"And it is not their husbands, hxat
themselves, about whom they are most
concerned. They are infatuated with
the delight of personal power. They
wish to pull themselves into higher
and higher station while clinging to
the arms of the husbands whose ca
reers they engineer by playing upon
the weakness Of the great and power
full with their smiles, their fattery,
their dinners and their gossip.
"Give them credit for their skill if
you like, but think Of what results
from it. Think what must be the eff
feet upon an army Of seeing a man
like Butler put in high command, Of a
man like Lord Methuen kept in the
field after committing such a blunder
as to walk unsuspectingly into the Boer
trap at Modder river after leading his
men to such a shambles as Magersfon-
tein! All through the army runs the
story that a Lady Jeune, Mrs. Cham
berlain or a Lady Aubrey Butler is be-
hind these and half dozen other such
incompetents-such misfits in uniform"

Fritz LiChtenteIIer is Arrested Early
This Morning on a Charge of
RObbing the Lines.
MUCH PLUNDER FOUND BY POLICE
Police Claim that the Man Has Committed
Many Petty Robberies in the
Last Few Months.
(From Fridays Daily

The police of the city made ten
strike Thursday night or early this
morning when they arrested Fritz
Lichtente1ler, an alleged clothes line
robber, who resides with his wife on
Middle street. For some time people
residing in this neighborhood have
been making complaints to the police
of articles stolen from their premises
and the climax came Thursday even
ing.
A Mrs. Meyer residing on the street
had hung lot of clothes on the line
and when she had taken them in one
of the articles, a bed spread, was not
quite dry and she hung it out again
When she had gone into the house
Lichtenteller is alleged to have en-
tered the.yard and removed the spread
It is claimed that he was caught in the
act of stealing the spread by couple
of boys who were near the yard at the
time the robbery occurred. The lady
at once made complaint to the police
and officers O'Hare, Zievers and Leik
went to the Middle street home of
Lichtente11er.
It was shortly after nine O'Clock
when the officers arrived at the house
to place the man under arrest and
search the premises. When they de-
manded admittance the man refused to
let them enter, but minute later he
decided that discretion was the better
part of va1or and let the officers in.
The officers hurried1y searched the
house and when they completed the
search they had about wagon load of
stuff which they claim had been stolen
from different places in the neighbor-
hood during the last few weeks. The
plumber and LiChtenteller were carted
over to the county Jail and after the
man had been locked up the plumber
was taken to the police Office where
several pieces of it were identified and
claimed later in the morning by the
former owners.
The police are of the opinion that
their capture is very important one
as they alleged that the capture will
put an end to all the petty thievery
that has been reported from that part
of the city.
Lichtente11er has nothing to say in
regard to his arrest or the things found
when the house was searched. It is
possible that the officers will be able to
find several charges on which the man
can be held, but it is not probable that
any of the charges will carry a punish
ment more then a fine or a jail SEN
tence. It is to be hoped, however, that
the arrest of this man will put an end
to the career of the despicab1e clothes
| line robber in Kenosha.

(From Thursdays Daily. }

Kenosha celebrated the greatest
Christmas in its history Wednesday,
and there was no home in the city, be
it ever so humble, without its share of
Christmas good cheer.
Christmas is essentially family
festival, and was observed as such in
the city. Many were the family re
unions which gathered around the fes-
tai board IN the various homes. The
trains to the city brought back many a
wandering son and daughter to take
the place reserved for them at the
home table.
Most of the churches of the city had
special Christmas services in the
morning, with unusually elaborate
musical features. All the services
were largely attended and the contri-
buttons made by the worshippers were
generous in the extreme.
In the evening the children of the
Sunday schools were given their an
nua1 Christmas tree or entertainment
and they enjoyed it all with the light
heartedness that belongs to happy
childhood alone. Neither was the ad.

The English Crown Jewels.

An English writer recently asserted
that the crown Of the king Of England
had been looted many times Of its
jewels, if reports current in the reign
of King George ". were true The
story in those days was that the king
continually sent for his crown when
he wished to give a jewel to any per-
son. Several of the gems were re-
moved and replaced by imitation
stones. ''The crown should be in
spected and reported upon by experts
before the coronation" says the Brit
ish newspaper, commenting on this
story, .'for it would be better that
King Edward should wear no crown
rather than one studded with worth
less imitation jewels"

In a Smash Up At Kansas City
Cable Car Incline.
As DEGREE SLIDE 800 YARDS.

Kansas City, Aug. 25.-A cable car,
from the gripman at the top of the
steep Ninth street incline at the Union
station here and dashiRg to the bottom
at a terrific speed, crashed into train
that had been stalled there. The pas
sengers were hurled in every direction
and the rear coach of the other train,
were reduced to mass OF twisted iron
and splinters.
One man, w. B. Taylor, the gripman
on the first train, was killed instantly,
and at least twenty persons were in
jured, perhaps six of them seriously.
The incline, which has been the
scene of several fatal accidents is 500
yards in length and starting at the top
of the bluff at Pennsylvania and Ninth
street, overlooking the railway station,
descends at an angle of fortyfve de-
grees to an elevated platform.
Cars from the top only start down
the incline after giving the bell signal,
but before the way was cleared and
this had been given. a train appeared
at the approach to the descent heavily
laden with passengers, hurrying to
catch outgoing railway trains at the
depot. The gripman had lost control
of the car and in an instant eighty
passengers were hurled down the hill
side at lightning speed. A panic en-
sued and many in their fright jumped
from the sides of the cars, turning over
and over as they struck the trestle-
work. At the bottom Of the incline at
the same moment three score men and
women were stricken with terror as
they caught glimpse of the train
dashing toward them In wild
scramble to escape many were tramphed

The Chinese lay stress on the
amount of gall a man has and not on
the amount of heart. Thus we read of
Hou King, who was Governor of Ho-
nan in the sixth century, that he once
captured a rebel named Ii Cheh,
brought him into the market, chopped
off his hands and his feet, ripped up
his heart and his belly and cut out his
vitals. The victim, however, con-
tinued to jest, with his features I'M
distorted and his countenance un-
changed. His gall bladder was then
seen to have the capacity of a pint
measure, which completely accounted
for his stoicism. In 1915, when the
armies of the Manchus were gradually
overrunning China, one WI Han Chao
made head against them in Anhui. But
he finally fell into their hands. The
historian records that his gall was
three inches long.-Shanghai Mercury.

Value of Oil as Steamship Fuel.

Much thought has recently been
given to the use of oil as fuel, and it
has just been employed on the Brit
ish steamer Enterprise with satisfac-
tory results. A steel vessel, built at
Newcastle-on-Tyne, the Enterprise,
has carrying capacity of 1000 tons.
With coal as fuel her speed has never
exceeded an average of eight or nine
knots an hour, but she has just fin
ished voyage of 1000 miles from
Hawaii to San Francisco, burning oil,
and has succeeded in steaming an
average of ten knots an hour. It was
demonstrated that in substituting oil
for coal the ship made a saving of 40
per cent in the weight of fuel and of
SO per cent in the space devoted to
its storage. There was also a slight
saving in cost of fuel and operation
of the shin.

"I'm from the country" he said,
addressing nobody in particular and
apropos OF nothing, land want to
tell you people that we are only a
lot of rocks. Did you ever watch a
colony of rocks build their nests in
the spring."
Everybody looked refectively away.
''Well, I'll tell you. First a rock
picks up a stick and puts it in his
nest, then goes away after another
one. When he's gone another rock
flies to his nest and steals the stick.
When he gets back he puts down
the second stick, for still another
rock to steal, and starts after the
first stick. He doesn't find it, and
when he gets back to his nest he
finds the second stick gone, and he
starts after that, scolding and swear
ing in rock fashion as hard as he can.
''By this time the other thieves have
been robbed, too, and it only takes
about three sticks to go around the
community and get the whole blessed
colony pow-wowing. Now, amt that
human nature?''
