pleasures above recorded certain chron-
ic ers Of highly productive genius have
already provided him with the following
additional dividends upon his modest in
vestment at the Princeton station
He held here in New York secret con-
ferenoes, prolonged for hours, with other
eminent Democrats now engaged In re-
organizing their party;
He formulated new issues and e'abor-
ated in minute detail specific plan OF
campaign for the Democracy in the next
national election;
On the strength Of his unique position
in the Democracy he assumed personal
charge of its affairs;
He revised the speech which Mr.. Ed
WARD NJ. SHEPARD expects to deliver
tomorrow night at Tulane University,
and likewise another speech which the
same orator has prepared for next Mon
day night at the Iroquois Club in Chicago;
and he gave SHEPARD careful instruc-
tions and much wise advice as to the
policy to be observed in his casual inter-
course with the Southern and Western
Democrats;
He devoted hours, in cooperation with
his associates and disciples, to an ex-
haustive review of President RoosE-
vELT's record during the past eighteen
months, particularly with reference to
the trust issue, the race question and the
question o. the adequate propagation of
the human species; and with unerring
instinct and ripe wisdom he pointed out
such mistakes OF Mr.. RoosEvELT's as
may be turned to good account by the
Democracy in the coming campaign;
Incidentally, while in the Wall Street
region, he arranged for restoration of
the confidence Of the financial and COM
mercial interests, temporarily alenated
from the Democracy during the period
when Organism was fragrant;
Although unable to see Mr.. WHITNEY.
who was unavoidably detained from all
the several conferences, Mr.. CLEVELAND
sent by a trusty messenger the plan of
campaign and the working drawings and
battle maps. and secured for the same
the o. X. of the great Foo'killer
He declined six times the Democratic
nomination for President; but accepted
four times the post Of Advisory Manager
Of the party.
This ia certainly a generous return
for Mr.. CLEvELAND's two dollars and
fifteen cents. Knowing his temper I'M
der molestation in his domestic and
academic pursuits, we fear il is trifie
too generous. 1t will make the ex-
President want to disguise himself az a

time he comes to New York to dine with

The region to be covered on these trips
Ii. in some respects. the most attractive
In lower California, and the promoters
Of the plan confidently believe that large
number Of people will be eager to embrace
the opportunity to ride in the big, swiftly
moving cars, from which they may obtain
an excellent view of the surrounding
country. The automobilists have taken
pains to emphasize the fact that the runs
in question are, in no sense, to be made
for their own profit, directly. The CHIEF
benefit which they expect TO derive from
them will accrue from impressing upon
the tourists and their friends the great
need OF improving the roads in that part
Of the State, and also from securing by this
means legislative appropriations for road
making.
Owners of automobiles who are willing
to give their time and In a measure. sacrifice
their machines to accomplish the purpose
described, deserve to succeed.

St. CHESS, Cripplegate, IL among the
most notable churches in London, archi-
tecturally and historically. II was one OF
the few buildings spared in the City at the
time Of the Great Fire, and dates back to the
end of the thirteenth century, while HENRY
VIII. was alive. when it was restored. The
fire of 1897, which burned the yicarage, again
spared the church. In it OLIVER CROMWELL
was married, and in il are buried WORTHLESS
like GEORGE Fox, the first Quaker, who
wrote the Book of Martyrs" and Sir MAR
TIN FRoBIsHER. the explorer. But to all En-
glishmen and Americans it is known as the
church under whose shadow JOHN MILTON
wrote Paradise Lost and within which
his body lies to-day.
For great many years st, Giles's had been
hidden away from sight, like other London
churches, by high buildings built upon the
church land. and entrance was through an
obscure archway passing through the block,
Recently the inclosing buildings have been
torn down to make room for other and
higher ones, and Londoners have been able
to sec for the first time in centuries the
tower and west front of the old church.
An effort " being made by English lovers
Of MILTON to buy the land in front OF the
church. so that il may be kept as an open
space and be adorned with a worthy monu-
ment to the poet and ii is hoped that Ameri-
can admirers of john MILTON will also
come to their aid.
