MILES AND THE PRESIDENCY
A story of the Generals Ambition
Recalled by His Retiremens.

A story of the Generals Ambition
Recalled by His Retirement.
Apropcs Of the retirement of General
Nelson A. Miles from the command Of
the United States army, an interview is
recalled which occurred some years
ago, in which the general told story to
illustrate his attitude on the question
OF being candidate for the presidency.
He was then stationed on western
frontier, and was approached by the
representative of an eastern paper, who
said:
''They say in the east that you are
aiming for the presidency"
do they?'' the general replied
"Well, we won't take much time for
an interview on that subject. The
thing reminds me of an experience
that scout had in the old days when
we were fighting the Cheyennes In
1875. That scout was a clubfooted
. Frenchman, a plucky, good fellow too,
he had to make his way from Fort
Keough to a cantonment on the Mis-
souri,, and the Cheyennes were after
him. They pushed him like Satan, and
after time his horse gave out, and he
had to hoof it. Well, it was rough,
bad country, and his poor ciubfeet
slipped and stumbled and slid so that
his trail must have been something
awful to contemplate. An Indian can
read marks in the ground as well as
you and I can read a book, but they
had never logged clubfoot before.
He got into the cantonment all right,
and pretty soon the Cheyennes came
along. They pointed to the trail and
asked our people to look at them. we
can't make out which way that fellow
was going said they. Now, that's the
case with these people who busy them
selves about me-. They don't know any
thing about me, and they can't find
OUT
After a pause General Miles turned
his head and spoke few words over
his shoulder. My only ambition is to
command brave men," said he, land

THE POSTAL SERVICE.
A High Standard of Devotion to Duty
 Is Maintained.

One clerk was busy throwing mail in a combination smoker and baggage car when suddenly without an instant's s warning he felt the car leap from the track and heard terrific crash. When he regained consciousness, the wreck pre- scented this chaotic conditions: The two forward cars had been plunged down a 70-foot embankment. The combination car lande in the upright position, with the rear trucks on the roof every seat in the smoking compartment being utterly de- molished, while on the floor of the mall compartment was a huge angular stone weighing not less than half a ton. How the mail clerk escaped unhurt will always be a mystery, says the Worlds Work.
 There Is probably no department of the government service in which a higher standard of devotion to duty Is main- taiped than in this. During heavy freshet on the Susquehanna river in 1890 all bridges were swept away and the railroad tracks along the banks practi- caly destroyed. Four mail clerks re- mained in their car until the water, rising and flowing through the doors, compelled them to take to an improvised raft which consisted of pieces of floating sidewalks and other debris of the inundaton lashed together. On this frail craft they put their pouches and, carefully propelling by poles along with the current, gained the postoffice, a mile away. They found this abandoned with s feet of water in the street at that point. They were all most exhausted and their condition was precarious. Finally, however they were rescued by boats and taken into houses through the second story windows. The letter mail was all intact and In fairly good condition.
 Some time ago the run on a western road was short" clerk because of sick ness. An official of the service happened to be on the train and volunteered his services. For fifteen hours he stuck to his work at the letter case. In the jour ney of more than 300 miles he had only a sandwich or two for food and stood on his feet without relief. There are other instances on record where entire crews have stood to the work without food for twenty-four hours.

TRIBUNAL THAT IS TO
 PASS ON THE DISPUTE

As it has been practically determined that the Venezuela dispute shall be re- ferred to The Hague tribunal, the con- stitution of that tribunal and it's methods of procedure are matters of general inter- est. The convention by which the tribu- nal was instituted provided for its or ganization, method of procedure ard rules of conduct.
 The powers which have recourse to arbitration sign a special act, which i'm plies the undertaking of the parties to submit Loyalty to the award.
 Each of the signatory powers has se- lected Judges, who are permanent mem- bers of the arbitration court and appoint ed for a term of six years The arbitra- tors who will form the tribunal for the determination of the matters referred to the permanent court are chosen by the parties to the controversy through the agency of the permanent council, which is composed of the diplomatic body at The Hague. If the parties fail to agree on the composition of the arbitration tri- bunal, each party appoints two arbitra tors, and these two choose an umpire.
 The tribunal of arbitration assemblies on the date fixed by the parties The right to appoint delegates or special agents to attend for the purpose of serv- ing as intermediates Is accorded to each party. There Is also given the right to retain counsel, who may present orally all the arguments they think expedient
 Unless there be an agreement to the contrary, the acceptance of mediation cannot have the effect of interrupting or delaying or hindering mobilization or other measures, for the preparation of war and hostlities are not interrupted by the acceptance of mediation unless there be an agreement.
 The deliberations of the tribunal take place in private, and every decision is by a majority. The award given must be ac- companied by statement or reason drawn up in writing and signed by each member of the board. Minority members may record their dissent when signing. The award duly pronounced and notified to the agents of the parties at variance puts an end to the dispute definitely, and without appeal although application may be made for revision.
 The tribunal has its ordinary seat at The Hague, and except in cases of neces- sity the place of session can be altered only with the assent of the parties to the controversy.
 Venezuela was not one of the signatory powers. but the convention provided that the jurisdiction of the tribunal may, within conditions laid down in the reg'i- lations, be extended to disputes between non-signatory powers or between sigma tory and non-signatory powers, if tho parties are agreed on recourse to the highest tribunal.

Only One Surviving Worshiper.

The little orthodox Friends meeting house at Woodstown, N. J., has only one surviving worshiper, Miss Pricilla Lippin- colt. an old woman, who twice a week, carefully arrayed in the garb of that sect, goes alone to the building and frequently sits an hour on first day" in the cush- toned pew which she has occupied for fifty years. Sometimes she sits In silence; at others, when the spirit moves, she speaks, with the long since emptied benches as her only earthly audience. The orthodox Quakers, once so numer- ous, built the meeting house, but all save Miss Lippincott have died. joined other meetings, or united with the Hick- sites. If Miss Lippincott should fail to hold services in the little meeting house it would revert to the heirs of the orig final owner of the land, but so long as services continue to be held there 1t can not be disturbed, and therefore she never fails to be at the door with the big brass key at the hour for service on the first or fifth day.

 in New York city A man may have been even a president of the United States or governor of the state, and he can meander day in and day out down Broadway, from Longacre square to the Battery, without once being recognized in the "madding crowd" Only short time ago a friend stood right in front or the Fifth Avenue hotel chatting with man whom he had greeted as ne was passing. "I suppose you know 10 whom I was talking" he remarked to friend. The friend-who, by the way, was one , of New Yorl1s leading politicians-said that the face was somewhat familiar to him. "Pve an idea said he, I've seen that man down on the Stock Exchange very often. He's a broker, I think. Alas, poor Yorick!

 One of the most striking illustrations of this sinking out of mind of once fla nous men-famous as leading lights in the city itself-was given when President Roosevelt was here g. short time ago.
