Guglielmo Marconi was eating
luncheon in the Southern hotel today
when a fife and drum corps broke
loose in the street below. The face Of
the inventor. who is "a guest of the
managers of the Worlds fair, flushed
With pleasure, as did the faces Of the
other members Of his party. He ex-
claimed:
These Americans, they are enthu-
siastic. Here in st. Louis they welcome
me with the fife and drum. Is it not
honor, my friends? Should 1 not bo
proud?"
Hip, hip, hurrahlS
The sound r~everberated through the
great dining room. Each echo swept
the strings of Marconi's heart.
II must show them that 1 appreciate
this honor" he cried, and dashed to .
window. Their he added:
"The streets are full of men. They
are not soldiers, but they are in uniform
and are drawn up in military array
All! my friends, this is a proud day fOl

With hand at breast he bowed thrice
then let the curtains fall and returned
to the table. There was a suspicious
moisture in his eyes. Fortunately fol
the waiter who stood behind MarcODi's
chair, no one at the table saw him chew
the napkin, which should have beer

HUNGARIAN CRISIS SOLVED.
A Ministry Will be Formed Either
by Count Andrassy or NJ. Zell.

Vienna, September 20.-Count Heder-
vary. who placed his resignation as
Hungarian Premier in the hands of EN-
peror Francis Joseph, some time ago,
had audiences with the emperor both
yesterday and today, which, it is report
ed, have led to the solution Of the
Hungarian cabinet crisis, and a minis
try will be formed either by Count
Julius Andrassy or NJ. Kolomma $.
Zell. Should this news be confirmed it
will be due to the correct and patriotic
attitude Of Francis Kossuth and his
party. Kossuth declared resolutely
against anything in the shape or a
resolution and even forbade any street
demonstration on the anniversary OK
his father's birthday. 1t is understood
tina the official communication yester-
day explaining away the ~unfavorable
construction placed in Hungary on the
army order issued by the emperor, Sep
TENDER II, will be issued in the form or
an imperial autograph rescript address,
ed to Count Hedervary and this proof
that the emperor did not desire to rufhe
Hungarian susceptibilities will be en-
! phasized by another imperial visit to
Buda-Pesth as an Indication OF his
| continued confidence and good will.

Uncle Joseph on Castle Building.

Uncle Joseph Cannon would hardly
be called a rhapsodist or a visionary.
He is all that is hard-headed and MAJ
ter-of-fact and practical. One would
as soon conceive of his sitting down 20
indite sonnets to the moon as of giving
indulgence to idle day dreams. Yet
hearken to his advice to the members
Of the Hamilton club in his speech of
Saturday evening:
Young man, build castles in Spain.
You'll never live in their fairy walls,
but you'll try to live in them. You'll
build a cottage and make it a home;
you'll perhaps build q mansion and call
it a residence. but you'll never live in
your castle in Spain. Build them when
| young and build them ever afterWard;
tor in trying TO live in them you are
bringing good to yourself and the
world. 1 have been building them all
my life. and build them regularly, eve
now. l have never wed in them, bui
IN striving TO do so we do something OF
use to the home and the family. II
the aggregate the castle building IN
Spain makes civilization"
Coming from a practical man of at
fairs whose views of large issues as re-
vealed by his career in congress nave
been prosaic and utilitarian to the linn
it. this confession is not a little -e,
fTeshing to those who still have fail:
in the value of ideals. Like Emerson
he urges the young man to hitch hi:
wagon to a star. The young man, o..
ing thus advised. may we'll pause <
consider whether there is not some.
thing in the i~dea-whether it will ~
be we'll for him to plan boldly and da-
ingiy and let imagination lend wings L
effort.
Mr. Cannon probably would b,
among the first to censure the mer,
day dreamer and bid him go forth anC
hustle" The builder OF castles mus
be willing TO work for them. Unless
man make the effort. unless he sets be
fore him difficulties worthy Of his bes
e~ndeaVOr. how shall he yer know wha
J there is in him?-Chicago News.

OFF HAND
1t Has and Various states
men Frequently Incur Them.

Congressman cannon said to the
members of the Hamilton club: i am
no speech-maker," and gave them a
talk which did not touch politics.
craftsmanship, statesmen, or candl-
dates. but which pleased his audience
| greatly. Thus Mark Antony set out
by saying that he was no great Or
ator and then infamed his hearers
with his eloquence. The congressman
said:
never wrote a speech in my life, and
never but ice used one that another
man had written. I envy the man who
can sit down in cold blooc and achieve
a thought. then dress it-put clothes
on it. pants, coat, vest, shoes and col
lar. and turn it out in full attire, as
Minerva %sprouted from the brain OF
Jupiter.
stephen a. Douglas could not sit
down and write q speech, but he was
a man whom few of his compeers
cared to tackle in debate. Members
Of the house of representatives do not
| go out of their way to provoke a dis
| cussion with Mr.. Cannon. If he can
not think sitting down, with a pen IN
his hand, he can think on MS feet IN
the ~hurly-burly of the house. After
all. that is the more valuable accom-
! plishment of the two for the man who
/ wishes to be a leader of a legislative
body.
One advantage which the man who
writes his speech has is that ne can
| verify his quotations and dates. If
Congressman Cannon had written the
| one he made on Saturday he would not
have aid 1t was a beautiful senti-
ment the Master expressed when he
said let not him boast that putteth on
but he that putteth off the harness .
! That was not said by the Master, bu'
! by Ahab. king of Israel. No doub
! Mr.. CannOn's parents made him reaC
the Bible diligently when he was
. boy. but a chairman of the committee
on appropriations IS too busy a mar
I to continue steadily the studies of hi:
youth. 1t is not entirely safe for {
I man in public life to make a Bible
| quotation offhand, and yet it he does
make a slip there may be robody IL
the audience to note it. Probably Their
are few of the members of the Hami
| ton club who are thoroughly Informed
| about the history of Ahab and tn
wise and foolish things he said and did

Weak

one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when it was simple indiges-
ton. II Is a scientific fact that all cases of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to, but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of
the heart, and in he course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

TWO MORE RESERVATIONS.
Positions and One S~ecretaryship at

London, September 20.-Lord Balfour.
of Burleigh, secretary for Scotland, and
Arthur Ralph Douglass Elliott, finan-
cial secretary to the treasury. have
resigned and their designations have

was not in the cabinet. These two
designations make a total Of four a
can't cabinet positions and one secre-
taryship at Mr.. Balfour's disposition.
With the resignation of Lord Balfour
and Financial Secretary Elliott, both
strong free traders, it is understood
that the ministerial designations are
completed and apparently the Duke of
Devonshire has decided to emain in
the cabinet. It is practically certain
tina Austen Chamberlain, Lord Miner
and Mr.. Brodrick will take the Ex-
chequer, Colonies and India portfolios,
respectively, and the only surprise IN
the new appointments is likely to be
the nomination Of a strong man to
the war office to determine how far
the recommendations of the South At
rican war commission can be carried
out. Home Secretary Ackers-Douglass
started for Balmoral tonight, and he
probably will be involved in the re-
