Stiles. the greatest of the Yale mathe-
maticians of his time. He. indeed,

Kansas, and an electric power line to
furnish power to all the cities in the

tions:

BILE and is most heartily indorsed and
recommended to the people of the Ar
kansas valley as worthy of their sup
port and Endorsement, and we earn
estly ask for their cooperation to
carry through this project. 1t is fur
ther
Resolved, That each representative
take up this matter in his own section
and call a meeting Of those whom he
believes would be interested in an en-
terprise of this kind and in the devel-
opment of the country, and lay this
matter before them and upon invita-
tion Of the different representatives,
Mr.. Hulitt will visit the different Sec
tions on an itinerary arranged before
hand and discuss the matter in detail
with them. present the working plans
of this project. and that a meeting be
called within thirty days from date
to organize this into a regular work
ing company"

by the fanatical natives. Lord Gro

variability. He says: "Impulsive

Lord Cromer says, also: "One of
the leading features of Gen. Gordon j
strange character was his total alb

to fits of ungovernable and often of
most unreasonable passion. He
formed rapid opinions without delib-

Gen. Gordon's courage is warmly
praised by Lord Cromer, who says fur
ther: Many a man before Gen. Cor

of duty. Many man, too, has striven
to regard death as g ld relief from
pain, sorrow and suffering. But no
soldier about to lead a forlorn hope,
no Christian martyr tied to the stake
or thrown to the wild beasts of ancient
Rome. ever faced death with more un-
concern than Gen. Gordon

Only One AeropIane.

Washington.-From present indica
tions it looks as if the Wright brothers
would be the only contractors to build
a heavier than air flying machine for
the signal corps and that instead OF
having three aeroplanes this year only
one will be completed.
A. NJ. Herring of New York has not
signed his contract with the signal
corps, although his offer was accepted
by the government. 1t is said he may
not be able to fulfill his expectations
and may withdraw.
]. F. Scott of Chicago, who offered
TO build flying machine for $1,000,
has now announced his intention of not
keeping to his promise, on the ground
that the work will be much more ex
pensive than he imagined.
This leaves the Wright brothers
alone in the field. as they have signed
and have already begun work under
War Department.
The machine they are to build will
cost $25,O00, is guaranteed to remain
in the air at least one hour. carry two
persons of a combined weight of $50
pounds and have a speed of thirty-six
miles an hour.
The Wright brothers machine must
pass severe tests before it is accepted.
The trial fight of this machine will
take place at Fort Myer, Virginia, not
later than August 1st next. 1t is be-
lieved that the machine may be COM
pleted before that date. which will be
gratifying to the government.

Church and State.

A young curate, who was showing
an American girl through an old Eng.

ton Of handsome lectern. The
Bible rested on the outspread wings
OF a powerful wrought bronze eagle.
At the base of the lecturn, another
symbol OF the Gospel was presented In
the form of great lion.
The clergyman yielded to the
temptation to banter the fair visitor
bit.
I'VE have lion to watch the eagle" "
he remarked.
YES" flashed the answer, but the
eagle stays on top."-Harper's Mag.
