FATHER, JOHN BROWNS FRIEND
Franklin Hamilton Told Good Sized Au-
dience in Address in Barre.

Before a good sized audience last even-
ing in the Hedding Methodist church,
Franklin Hamilton. d. d., L. d., chan
cellor the American university of
Washington. ID. c., gave lecture on
John Brown of 0sawatomie, which
made the blood of every true Northerner
boil with love for that noted liberator.
The speaker went on TO tell of the
Southern hatred OF John Brown, of how
John Browns mission was not realized
until fifty years later, as predicted by
Wendell Phillips. He told OF great bat
ties between the blue and the gray, of
the touching scenes of home leaving and
returning. The last moments of Brown
were very sad. not only for the white
but for the negroes. who dearly loved
one who was helping to free them. The
speaker brought his remarks to a fitting
close by recitug a verse of that old
sweet war song, John Browns body lies
q mouldering in the grave"
The noted orator was given very close
attention throughout all his lecture, and
il is needless to say that all were pleased
with il. rs noted from the rounds of APP
plause following. Mr.. Hamilton shows
talent as a speaker and his
of the subject made il doubly
as his father was one of
John Browns near friends. The speaker
was introduced by c. : Andrews.

Senator Blanchard of Windsor opposed

Lieutenant Governor Howe said the

THE REPLY DELIVERED.
1t Displays Spirit of Compromise Of
Trouble.

Constantinople, Jan. 3o.--In reply te
the note handed to it by representa-
tives of the European powers, the Turk
ish government displays a spirit of com
promise. The response was presented
to-day by Mahmoud Shefket Pasha
grand vizier, to Margraye Johann Won
Pallavicini, the Austrian ambassador to
Turkey and dean Of the diplomatic corps
in Constantinople.
The Porte stipulates for the retention
by Turkey of those quarters at the fort
ress of Adrianople in which the holy
shrines are situated, and proposes to
leave in the hands of the powers the
disposal Of the land on the right bank
OF the Martha river, which runs through
Adrianople, and consents to the dismant-
ling of the Notifications of that city.
The document insists on the main
tenance of Turkish sovereignty over the
islands Of the 4Egean sea, because Of
their proximity to the Turkish main
land, but it intimates the readiness Of
the Ottoman government to leave the
settlement Of the insnlar regime to the
powers,

WOULD LET PROFESSIONALS IN.
An English Club Takes Up the Thorpe
Incident.

! London. Jan 30.-At the annual dinner
of the South London Harriers' club last
night, President Willis. who said that
the club was the pioneer In international
athletics, made the startling proposal
that the next Olympic games should be
open to both amateurs and professionals.
Without any direct reference to the
Thorpe incident, he contended that the
line between professionalism and anna
teurism was less sharply drawn in other
countries than in England and that
therefore England was not in the same
position to compete as other countries. He
argued that until the professional and
the best athletes any country was able
to produce Were brought together Eng
lands position as the premier athletic
country of the world could never again
be attained.
Sporting Life, commenting on the
Thorpe incident completely exonerates
the Amateur Athletic union of the Unit
ed States and thinks that its ample
apology should be accepted in the spirit
in which it was offered. 1t adds, how
ever, that it was high time for the inter
national Olympic committee to endeayor
to evolve code of honor for the anna
teur, as there were many competitors,
not Americans only, whose status would
not bear strong light.
Captain Jones, acting secretary of the
British Olympic association, in an in
terview considers the American commit
tee guiltless in the Thorpe affair, and
that the Americans are behaving ex-
tremely well in trying position.

these would carry enormous weight in
