is called Wekerle's "ecclesiastical-po- litical reform" He also displayed much skill in dealing with the Jewish disabilities bill, a measure which made him many friends in one quarter.
 Following these successes came a period of exhausting political activity and anxiety. The Rumanians resi- dent in Hungary agitated strongly against what they considered to be an Inequality, and not trusting the Pre- nlier tried to secure redress by per sonally approaching the king, thus ig noring the Government. This led to further antipathy. In July of 1893 a pan-Rumanian congress was held at Hermannstadt where a list of griev- ances was made out, and Wekerle unfortunately utilized this opportunity to prosecute sereval of the promoters of the congress for treason. In the following May 20 of the leaders were 1 sentenced to various terms of impris- onment. This was the beginning of the end. The King openly expressed his displeasure at Wekerle's action, also with his encouragement of the popular demonstrations held through out Hungary after Kossuth's death and in, December, 1894, his ministry was dismissed largely through the Catholic influence in Vienna.
 From this point Wekerle practically slipped out of the active political arena; he may, indeed, be said to have had F years vacation. Ten years of this have been spent in the domain of law, as head of the Supreme Court of Administration, court vested with administrative powers to annul all acts of unconstitutional governments. There is no English equivalent to this court.
 In personality he is commanding You not only see the Puritan but you feel it. In style, manner and appear ance he somewhat resembles Sir Ed ward Clarke. He looks strong and he is strong. One of the great weak nessess ow Hungarian lawyers IS that they are not fully conversant with their own laws. Wekerle is notable exception. Many decorations and honors have came his way. He has received the freedom of the city, the degree of L. L. D., and is now the president of the Nemzeti Casino.
 His task is not an easy one, but 1t is hoped that under his spell the coun- try may be lifted out of the finacial slough of despond it has, under three years of bad government, difted into.-- Budapest Correspondence of the Pail Mall Gazette.

HUNGARY's NEW PREMIER.
The Successful Career of Alexander
 Wekerie.

Wekerie.
 Alexander Wekerie, the, new Hun garian Premier has stepped from po- litical retirement to the highest plat form the State has to offer. The ca reer of this financier-lawyer has with few exceptions been one of continued success. O..
 He was born in 1S44, four years be- fore the Hungarian Revolution, and undoubtedly imbibed early some of the spirit of that stirring period. Pro- ceeding by the usual scholastic stages, he was eventually entered a student at the University of Budapest, and while still young member of the univer- sity he started a movement among the students resembling the Oxford union. Graduated with honors, he then spent some time abroad, where he studied law, but was fascinated by finance Almost unconsciously he appeared to drift into the state finance departments, where he speedily mas tered details and enjoyed promotion. He seemed to possess exceptional abil- ity, which the heads of departements were not slow to recognize. Perhaps the credit of first publicly recognized his worth belong to Koloman SzeI, who not only encouraged Wekerle, but substantially improved his position. Thus from under secretary he rose to Minister, and finally succeeded Sza- pary as Premier, a position to which he now succeeds once more.
 Judged from certain standpoints. his first tenure of the Premiership was successful Almost his first work as head of the Government was to lay be- fore the Diet a sweeping series of re- forms. There was a measure relat- ing to civil marriage followed by one dealing with civil registration and finally came a bill relating to the edu- cation of children of mixed marriages, All these suggested reforms reused the obstructionist spirit of certain classes in the State, and the first bill was promptly rejected by the House of Magnates. Wekerie throughout this persistent opposition displayed un- usual patience and eventually so wore down the antagonism that all his re- forms were carried. The whole scheme

the Amalgamated COpper-Uneasines
 Abroad--Russian Bonds Decline
 Gossip.
 The stock market was a waverning market yesterday with decline in the morning and a f1rmer tone later accom- panied by much dullness.
 Heaviness in the foreign markets due mainly to the unsettlement of Russian affairs, was the principal factor in our stock exchange dealings. The refusal of the czar, as outlined in the morning dispatches, to accept a policy of com promise which would conciliate the powerful elements of opposition to the present government was regarded as very serious on all the European bour- ses. Russian bonds broke very sharply
 Many in Wall street profess to be- leve were are in for very dull and dragging speculation throughout the summer. and that the generality of stocks can be bought back to still much better advantage during the course of the next few weeks.
 Stocks seemed to be offered freely enough when bid for, but were not forthcoming in any quantity on the de- cline, After the first half hour the trading fell once more into extreme dullness.
 If Secretary Shaw does not see to it that everything Is lovely at crop mov- ing time many people will be sadly dis appointed
 One or two of the specialties, notably American Tee securities and American Locomotive gave evidence of a short interest in difficulties. Otherwise the final movement accomplished no more than partial restoration of the early Bosses.
 Holders of bonds of the better class" said the bond man of a large Broad street house yesterday, show no desire to sell. They will not make even the most trifling concessions, but give evidence of possessing utmost con- fidence in the value of their possess sions."
 Great interest was manifested in the Copper dividend which will be acted
 
 upon, 1t Is expected, to-day. The belief was stronger yesterday than it has been that no change will be made No doubt the uncertainty of what will be done with this dividend, however, was an important incentive to the caution which the general trading showed yes- terday
 One way of accounting for the dull- ness of the market Is to say that the bears are afraid to sell, the bulls equal ly afraid to buy, while the Copper divi- dend remains in doubt.
 The room continued to guess what the Boston and Montana dividend had been, and what the Amalgamated Cop- per dividend to-day would be.
 IA favorable news item of the day was the declaration of a regular per cent. dividend by Illinois Central di- rectors, instead of the 1-2 and 1-2 ex- tra, as heretofore. This argues well for the future as far as the opinion of the directors are concerned.

FFlhc1paI ThOrne of Palmyra Plants
Campus to Vegetables.
Principal Thorne of the Palmyra high
school has adopted the unusual plan Of
cultIvating all sorts of vegetables and
grains on the school campus for the pur-
pose OF demonstrating to students the
principles which he is teaching them re-
Pardlng agriculture. It is doubtful wheth-
er another high school in Wisconsin has
taken on 50 much the appearance of an
agricultural experiment station. Mr..
Ihorne is interested in the teaching of ag-
rlculture in the rural, grade and high
schools of Wisconsin as a means of in
creasing the extent of knowledge of sci
entlhc farming and of swelling the yearly
crop report. He is an enthusiastic be-
lever in showing the children that there
are better ways of planting and cultivat-
ing crops than those employed by her
fathers and grandfathers. He believes
that the farmer should be as progressive
as any other man of business.

little Olive with a razor and wanted to
die herself. A search soon discovered the

The hot springs of Mexico have been
noted for a long time as a SUR
cure for skin diseases. Don Jose has
tried them all, to no effect. He even
journeyed to the wild interior Of the
Yaqm country, where the aborigines
look upon every white man as an enc
my. He took a company Of guards
along and enough Iaborers to build his
own hut. There he stayed for a year,
sleeping on the ground rolled up in a
blanket, but to no avail, though the
springs are tabled in Indian lore as be-
ing possessed Of qualities that will cure
anything.
Finally Don Jose came home discour-
aged. He tried to make up his mind
to the inevitable. Then he read Of some
wonderful cures Of skin diseases made
by European specialists. He resolved
to try one more last fight for life before
giving up forever.
But it is not easy for lepers to travel.
A poor leper would be sent to the near
est pesthOuse. 1t takes a rich leper to
cross frontiers and travel without let
or hindrance. Don Jose's millions
came to his rescue and did him some
good at last.
No railroad would let him have a
berth in a sleeping car, nor even a state
room. 1t is a far trip from Guaymas
to Europe, but even a leper can make
it If he has money.
So Don Jose hired a special train.
He took along his private car, which
he bought some time ago in order that
he might travel. In it are rooms for
his family and himself, a drawing
room, dining room and kitchen. This
and two baggage cars loaded with the
family effects made up the train.
His steamer for Europe sailed from
Vera Cruz. This is more than 1000
miles from Guaymas To reach Vera
Cruz the millionaire leper had to pass
through the United States. This took
a lot Of red tape
At Vera Cruz Don Jose found the
steamer waiting him which was to take
him and the family to Europe. He had
already made his terms with the COM
pany. He agreed to take an entire deck
Of cabins for himself. He agreed not
to leave his rooms during the voyage
and contracted to pay for new bedding,
upholstery, hangings, carpets and the
like, which were destroyed at the end
Of the voyage. He also paid for the fu-
migation Of the ship when he left it.
And all this voyage was builded upon
hope alone. But there are millions for
the man who can give me back my
life," says Don Jose hopefully.

career. How he managed both his
teaching and his study is remarkable.
But he finished college with his class
and with honor.
He desired to take up the study of
law but was again confronted with
the question of the lack of means. He
took class Of boys, whom he tutored
IN preparation for their collegiate work.
At the same time he worked at his
law books, studying eagerly. Soon af-
terward he accepted the prfncipalship
of an academy at North Pownal, Yer
mont but his intentions OF taking up
law as profession did not waver He
was at last admitted to the bar, and
soon afterward went to New York to
take up the practice.
Alone and unknown, it was a hard
struggle for the young lawyer. But
his earlier lessons of immediate work
for the sake of an end stood him In
good stead in these trying times, and
he came at last to the recognition by
the public of the powers, he knew to be
in himself.
