many rare relics of General Clay's
strenuous life. There are immense
vases and gorgeous rugs, divans and
chairs. all bought by General Clay in
ST. Petersburg when he was minister to
the court of st. James, and sent to his
wife at Whitehall. There are also bowie
knives and revolvers and guns of vari-
Gus descriptions that he used in the
army and in his various fights and
duels. Relic hunters from all parts of
the country are already inquiring for
these things, and when they are Of
fered for sale the competition for them
will be exceedingly keen. The house is
just as 1t was when General Clay died,
and nothing may be done until the le-
Eal battles In the courts result in the
final disposition Of the estate. The
mansion, altho in good repair on the
outside and we'll preserved within, is
too large for modern residence. and
IL: is doubtful If 1t is ever used as a
private residence. General Clay occu-
ried one room, and in this he died in
the midst of only strangers, his faithful
todyguard, Jim" Bowlin, who had
been with him for fourteen years, and
Joe Perkins. who for many years had
administered to his wants.

A French Womap's Feat.

Somewhere in the French city OF
Lyons is a little cocoa shop kept by a
woman who has won a record in the
Alps which veteran climbers may we'll
envy For years she has followed the
French Alpine troops with her basket.

vers with her walking stick as support
and her basket of cocoa as excuse.
Within few days this wonderful wom-
an has scaled mountin $500 feet high,
crossed another covered with snow, as
cended another to a height of $500
meters. climbed with the troops to the
top of Mount Gents. and finally left the
regiment at the summit of the Frejus,
a height of 200 meters. Soldier after
soldier fell out of the ranks, but the
cocoa woman marched on. up the Alps
and down the Alps.

1t was presented thru Dr. Theodore
Hertzle, president of the Zionist con-
gress, who, in his annual address re-
ferred to the sultans persistent refusal
to grant charter for the colonization
of Palestine. and of the failure of the
project to establish the Jews on the
Sinai peninsula, and laid England's Of
fer before the assembled delegates.
Among the prominent Jews in attend
ance are Max Nordau, Sir Francis
Monteiiore and Israel Zangwill.
Among the American delegates are
Prof. Richard Gottheill, Of Columbia
university, New York. and DR.. r. l..
Halpern and Leon Zolotkoff of Chicago.
Much to the regret of the friends Of
the Zionist movement, President Theo-
dore Herzl, in opening the congress
was not able to report definite pro-
gress in the negotiations with the sui
tan of Turkey for charter permitting
the Jews to resettle Palestine.
President Herzl reported in detail the
efforts made to further the Zionist

land on the borders of Palestine and
form colonies using part Of the funds
already accumulated for the purchase
OF a charter from the sultan.
The most important financial feature
of the Zionist movement is the Jewish

ago with capital stock of Sl0,OO0,oO0.

stock has been eagerly subscribed for
by Jews all over the world, and near
ly 1000 shares have been paid for.
the number of stockholders being APP
proximately 100000. The trust is well
managed and is already on a dividend
paying basis.
Another financial feature Of the
Zionist movement is the Jewish nation
al fund. This fund is being raised by
means of the sale OF stamps which
Zionists use to adorn their private
correspondence and stationery. A stamp
represents the respective coin of the
smallest denomination OF every coun-
try The administration of the fund
remains with the congress, the business
control is vested in the Jewesh Colon
lal trust. over 100000 has been rails

AS an Indispensable link in the chain
of these institutions, the Anglo-Pales-
tine company, limited. was founded
with capital of $25OO0O for the pur-
pose of developing Palestine industries
and to assist Jewish colonists in find
ing markets for their products. This
company recently opened its offices in
Jaffa and is doing we'll.
Ii is expected that the present con-

which will be made by the American

Reports OF victories by the insurgents
in Several Places.
Sofia, Aug 24.-From eastern Adj
rianople come reports of more fighting
which SO far appears to be resulting
chiefly in favor of the revolutionists.
Many villages have been burned and
their inhabitants have taken refuge
across the Bulgarian frontier. After
a :ong fight at Stoiloro the insurgents
defeated q detachment of Turkish
troops, which lost twenty killed and
wounded.
At Chanagasko, near Surovicovo the
insurgents are reported to have anlihi-
lated an entire Turkish regiment.
The Turks have bombarded and de-
stroyed the monastery of Constantine,
near Losengrad. where fifty insurgents
had fortified themselves. The villages
of Bakdgik, Konakara, Evren, Din cisco
and Brusheva, have all been burned and
their inhabitants have fed. The large
village of Drumbegle, near LoseLsrad,
has been burned by Bashi baZouks. The
villages of Buch, with 800 houses and
Rakoro, 200 houses situated in the villa
yet of Monastir, have also been burned
by Turkish troops. Two hundred wom-
en- and children from these villages are
now begging in the streets of Monastir
The Turkish government has organ
lied special court at Monastir to try
the captured insurgents. The tribunal
is composed of a Turkish president,
three other Turks, two Greeks and one
Albanian. 1t will partake of the char
acter Of a criminal court and not of a
court martial.

1t Is said that Vicar Fillingham, dur
ing his visit to New York, exhibited
more than ecclesiastical energy alone,
and was curious to see all sections of
the city. In many of his pereginations
he was accompanied by an old resident
who could explain everything OF inter
est. one day they came upon huge
poster adorning a wall upon which was
represented life-sized pictures of ex-
Governor Hill. Admiral Schley, Senator
Depew, Mayor Low and District Attor-

some special brand in ore hand and a

guished citizens mentioning their

The auditing committee of the
church actually admits that last year
it accepted Hammond's verbal state
nent of receipts and expenditures, as
he produced no books, but only mass
of express receipts, from when they
could get no idea of his accounts.
DR.. Hammond is absent in the coun-
try, but his wife has made Statement
Which is a sweeping denial of the
charges. with nothing specific in refu-
tation. She attributes the whole eX-
posture to Jealousy OF local preachers
who wish TO prevent her husband from
going as a delegate to the Los Angeles
conference.
Miss Gillette. matron OF the Metho-
dist Oriental Home, declares Hammond
has done good work at the Chinese
Mission College, but it IS a fact that
Hammond has paid no attention 20 the
application of DIR. Frederick Burk
president of the State Normal School,
who wished to use a room of the build
ing for Chinese public school. At the
outside 500 a month, it Is asserted,
has been spent by Hammond for three
years for this Chinese college. and he
has drawn $4,000 a year FOR its sup
por; from the church funds.
The manager of this Chinese mission,
who preceded Hammond. was DIR. Fred
erick Masters, a thorough Chinese
scholar, who accomplished great good
in Chinatown. and was respected even
by the heather. There is no record OF
any mission work done by Hammond.
Hammondis successors in the book
concern. a mixed commission OF
preachers and laymen, show, instead OF
a deficit of $4,000 a year q substantial!
profit and much larger circulation
They carry only $4,000. where Ham
mond carried $4,000. aud they cut of
flee expenses more than $4,000 a year.
Leading preachers who are calling
Hammond to account say 1t is not SO
much the money loss that stirs their
wrath. but the cynical contempt OF
Hammond for all demands made upon
him for an accounting ard his burning
Of the books, which alone could show
what he did with the church funds.
Hammond is determined to go as a
delegate to the Los Angeles conference,
but the other preachers declare they
will prevent him from securing this
kind of a vindication.

WRECKED CHURCH CONCERN.
Accounts of Dr.. Hammond Indicate a
SHORTAGE of $4,000.

San Francisco. Cal, Aug. 24.-1The
accounts Of DR.. j. ID. Hammond. ex-
manager of the Methodist Book Con-
Germ and the Chinese college here, are
likely to remain more or less of mys-
terry, as DR.. Hammond has burned all
his books. and SO far has confined him
self to verbal statements of his ex-
penditures.
The fact remains that $4,000 has
been spent on the book concern with
out line remaining to show VIII ere it
went and that $4,000 year has been
charged against the Chinese Mission
School, which all experts agree can be
managed we'll on $1,000.
