DELAY ON TEMPLE OF PEACE.
Explanation Given by the Minister
From fhe Netherlands

Jonkheer r. de Marees van Swinderen,
minister from the Netherlands, called upon
Secretary Hay yesterday to say farewell, az
he is about to leave Washington for Hol-
land to make some arrangement OF his
private affairs there before returning to
his post here to be married to Miss Glover,
daughter of Mr.. c c. Glover of this city
He introduced as the charge of the mis-
sion during his absence Mr.. du Tuyll, the
new secretary of the legation.
The minister assured Secretary Hay that
in his judgment the Dutch government VIII
be very glad to have accepted by the pow
ers the Secretary's suggestion that the sec
ond peace conference be held at The Hague,
and he was sure that every courtesy and
opportunity would be extended to make
the meeting a success. Perhaps the first
stone of the new Temple of Peace, which
will be the home of the permanent Hague
tribunal and the meeting place of future
peace conferences, will be laid by the time
the second conference assemblies. But
the minister explained that Dutch people
are very thorough in their methods and
cautious and desire to make sure that they
have chosen the very best site for a work
of that magnitude and that accounts for
what has been described as undue delay in
carrying out the terms of Mr.. Carnegie
gift 1t will be necessary to obtain a very
large piece of ground in some beautiful
locality for the building, and IL is the in
tention 70 invite the submission of plans
from the d.chitectS of the world and eSpe-
cially from American achtects.

HOW TT WAS COINED.
Tracing the Origin of Secretary Hays
Recent Remarkable Phrase.

Fortutous concourse Of unrelated
prejudices,' the remarkable phrase APP
piled by Secretary Hay In his Carnegie
Hall speech to the democratic party" said
literary man today, might almost be
described as free adaptation of phrase
so old that 1t has become classic. Prob
ably the first person to develop the idea,
though in a negative sense, was the ia
nous English judge, Sir Matthew Hale of
Shakespeares time. Contending that man
was not merely the creature of luck, he
declared that man was not the 'fortuitous
concourse of particles of matter 1t was
about 1850 when practically the same idea
was expressed by Richard Bentley when
he said that nature was not a fortuitous
concourse of atoms But the last time this
idea was preached publicly was by Lord
John Russell when he used II in posi-
tive sense declaring that a hostile mi
nority in the parliament was a fortuitous
concourse of unrelated elements which
brought it very close to Secretary Hays
last utterance."

ST. Louis. A. Roy Knabenshue of Toledo in
command of Thomas S. Baldwin's airship,
California Arrow, yesterday returned to the
place from which he started, covering three
and half miles. part of the way against
an eight-mile wind. Knabenshue started
from the aeronautic course at 1881 pm.
and returned at 4:05 pm. On the return
trip the airship sailed slowly over the exact
spot from which 1t had risen twenty-cight
minutes previously, and glided about 100
feet farther west, where ii settled grace
fully to the ground. The descent of the
Arrow was the signal for great demon
stration. Dozens of eager hands were up
stretched to grasp the frame of the flying
machine, which, with its navigator, was
carried around the course on the shoulders
of shouting men.

Mrs. Potter made in her amateur per-
forrnances. 1t was believed by many
that with her husband and society at
her feet she would have been satisfied.
But she wanted public applause. Sh~
visited the stage managers and sought
to place herself in the brilliant glare
of the footlights. In 1886, just ten
years after her marriage. Mrs. Potter
arranged to make her first appear
ance in London. Everybody remem-
bers the excitement it caused, the
horror of her husband and his family,
the imperative cablegrams from her
relatives and friends the stubbornness
of the young wife, her final appear
ance and-its dismal failure.
Unruff1ed by her failure, she deter
mined to stick to the stage. Since then
she has had some triumphs and many
failures, some ridicule. some admira-
ton, some good plays and some bad
ones. She has been constantly in the
glare of footlights, has travelled the
world over and has made and lost
fortunes. Little remains for her on the
stage, for the very youth and vivacity
on which her fame was built her
beauty itself, is gone. All the gilt is
wiped off her prize. After she had
been on the stage ten years James
Brown Potter brought an action for
divorce Since then their daughter
has married and he is now beginning
new life with a new and beautiful
wife.
