which la subject to a duty of $20 per
ton under paragraph 326, act of July
34, 1897, Is being admitted to free en-

Of the saveral causes of fear, that of
thunder and lightning is said by Presi-
dent Stanley Hall to be the most com-
mon, because of the supposed helpless-
ness of humanity to avert or neutralise
a stroke of lightning. Yet this Is not
always the case. During the civil war
Col. Rutherford B. Hayes and a little
squad of men were reconnolterlng in.
the mountains of West Virginia, when
a severe thunder storm broke over
them and they took shelter under a
clump of trees. With a singV bolt,
five of the men fell senseless and were
mourned by their companions as dead.
Col. Hayes detailed two men to each
of the unconscious soldiers, and him-
self demonstrated the methods used
in resuscitating the drowned. After
ten minutes of ineffectual effort, the
soldiers declared it folly to try longer:
the men were dead. The colonel or-
dered no relaxing of work. In twenty
mlnu(ea two of the men showed sign*
of Ufa; in forty minutes two others,
snd after an hour and a half the breath
of the fifth came with a faint flutter,
and all were saved. "Make a point of
telling this experience." President
Hayea used to say; "it may save other
lives."

THE PEACE JUBILEE.
MR. MKINLEY IN CHICAGO.
Imim*ms« (lathering ai Ike Auditorium

Uvatlea la Ifce I'reeldeal.
Since the Ideal of one generation la
the working factor of the next, the
public achool teacher becomes a rank-
ing officer in the ship of state. Of the
twenty thousand teachers gathered at
the recent convention in Washington,
even tho moat lrresponalble exerts a
profound Influence upon our future ctt-
iaenahip. A little boy lately came to
Mrs. Mary A. Llvermore with a ques-
tion, listened to her answer, and then
Bald, gravely: "Well, grandmamma, I
will ask MIbs Brown tomorrow If what
you say Ib true." The fact that Miss
Brown was the little eighteen-year-
old teacher of a primary Bchool makes
comment upon the character and in
fluence of the teacher superfluous.
An eminent authority says we ought
to have a standing army of one hun-
dred and fifty thousand men. That
would be lmperlallam indeed. What-
ever the peace results of this war. It
would be a misfortune to have that
expensive show and parade fastened
upon us year by year. There is no ne-
cesslty for It, and it smacks too much
of the foreign systems which ignore
the taxpayer in behalf of the soldier.
We can get up a larger army within a
brief space of time than any other na-
tion, and the delays of discipline and
organisation would be less expensive
and destructive than a continual army
tax and an utterly uBelesB display of
military power.

ALGER SAYS ALL MAY SPEAK.
Chicago, Oct. I•!.-The national petit*
Jubilee of Chicago was toulttht inaug-
urated with a thuiikajtlvlug Hcrvkc at
I lie Auditorium.
rrcaldciit McKlnlcy attended and tin*
tcucd to addrc afM by n .IcwInIi rabbi,
a Komuu Catholic prletd, u I'resbytor-
Iriii ■'iei'gyiuau ami ii noted colored
orator. The nppluiiNe for the Presi-
dent waa terrlllc, and at one time lie
WHS coiii|iellcd to rise III Ilia box iiml
respond to the frantic cheering of the
audience.
The service, however, was a religious
character, ami at times the solemn al-
ienee of -the vast assemblage was
much more eloquent than could hare
been the wildest applause.
The President rested during a great
part of the day at (lie residence of Cap-
tain Lafayette Mi-Wllllams, his reta-
il ve, where lie is being entertained. He
did uot attend church In the morning.
For a short time In the afternoon he
was tiikcu for a drive in company with
Mrs. McKlnlcy, Captaiu McWIIIIams
ami Mrs. McWIIIIams.
The party was driven to the Audi-
torium at 8 o'clock and all nlong the
way people lined the streets to watch
the pHsmigc of the President's carriage.
Easily 1:.\<mki people were within tho
grcnt Auditorium and probably as
many more were on the outside un-
able to obtain admittance.
The President was seated In a box
on the left side of tho Auditorium and
with him were Alexander II. ltevcll,
President Wllllnm II. Harper of the
University of Chicago, Captain McWII-
IIams iiud Secretaries Porter and C'or-
telyou. Among the occupants of the
other boxes were James McKlnley. the
President's nephew; Secretary Wilson
and MIhm Wilson, Secretary and Mrs.
Gage, Secretary Bliss, Assistant Sec-
retary Melklcjolm and Postmaster .Gor-
don.
Elaborate music had been prepared
for the meeting under the direction of
Henry B. Honey. Hev. Dr. Henry W.
Thomas, pastor of tho Peoples Church,
was chairman of the meeting. Bishop
Samuel Fallows led In the recital of
the Lord's prayer, and Hev. Dr. Jen-
kin Lloyd Jones In the responsive read-
ing.
The first address was by Itabbl Kmil
G. Illrsch. who brought out ti great
burst of enthusiasm by a reference to
President McKlnley. I)r. Hirsch said:
"We are proud that when war was
Imminent the affairs of the nation
were in the hands of a man"—(here
Dr. Hirsch's voice wits drowned by a
great wnve of applause.) When he
could be heard the speaker finished
his sentence—"ft true American, one
who loves pence, a worshiper of the
Prince of Peace."
Loud cheers followed Dr. Hirsch's
Btntoment of his sentiments In refer-
ence to territorial acquisition, when
he said:
"Constitutionalism, not colonial de-
pendence, must be the watchword of
the war in regard to the countries'
deliverance from the Spanish rule."
Rev. Dr. Thomas P. Hodnett, a Cath-
olic clergyman, caught the fancy and
applause of the audience by repeated
reference to Dewey, Sampson, Schley
and the Hough Riders, and when he
pientloned President McKlnley by
name the people became so demonstra-
tive that the President was compelled
to rise in his box and bow his ac-
knowledgments. At tho conclusion of
his address Dr. Hodnett aroused much
enthusiasm by a philippic against the
"growing Influence of monopoly and
the cohesive power of unjust corpora-
tions."
One of the most stirring speeches of
the evening was made by Hev. Dr.
John Henry Barrows, who took a firm
stand in favor of the retention of the
Philippines, which sentiment appeared
to meet entirely the approbation of the
audience.
Booker T. Washington was the last
speaker. He said in part:
"This country has been most fortu-
nate in her victories. She has twice
measured arms with England and lias
won. She has met the spirit of rebel-
lion within her own borders and was
victorious. She lias met the proud
Spaniard and he lies prostrate at her
feet. All this Is well; it is magnifi-
cent. But lien; remains one other vic-
tory for Americans to win—a victory
as far-reaching and important as any
that has occupied our army and navy.
We have succeeded iu every conflict
except in the effort to conquer our-
selves in the blotting out of racial preju-
dices.
"We can celebrate the era of peace
in no more effectual way than by a
firm resolve on the part of the North-
ern men and Southern men. black men
and white men. that the trenches
which we together dug aroifhd Santi-
ago shall be the eternal burial place
of all that which separates us in our
business and civil relations. Let us l e
as generous in peace as we have been
brave in Iwttle.
"Until we thus conquer ourselves. I
make no empty statement when I say
we shall have, especially in the south-
ern part of our country, a cancer
jrnawini: at the heart of this republic
that shall one day prove as dangerous
as au attack of an army from without
or within.
'In this presence and on this aus-
picious occasion I want to present the
<leep gratitude of nearly ten millions
of my |>oople to our wise, patient ami
brave chief executive for the generous
manner in which my race has been
recognised during this conflict—a recog-
nition tli.it has done more to blot out
sectional and racial lines than any
event since the dawn of our free-
dom."
When Mr. Washington had given ex-
pression to these words the must inter-
esting feature of the evening took
place. The andicnce rose and ebeered
to the e 'h«. while President McWill-
ie t. standing in ilia box. leknowielinl
l y repeated l«w the compliment of

To morrow for Ibr most part of tltc

BREACH IN CUBAN REPUBLIC.
President Miao and General Gomes Said
to He at Oat*.
New York, Oct. 17.—A dispatch to
Ihe World from Havana says: It is
generally believed that a serious
breach has taken place between tho
executive department of the Cuban re-
public aud tlte leaders of the military
force.
Word lias been received that General
Wood has received through Colonel
Hay u communication from President
Maso advising that nothing bo done
by Americans that can iu any way bo
construed as recognizing the Cuban
government. Maso has been joined by
his colleagues lu declaring that the
time has arrived for disbauding the
Cuban forces.
This course will be vigorously com-
batted by General Gomez. General
Juan Ducasse, one of the closest ad-
visers of General Gomez, arrived In
Havana to-nlglit to consult with op-
ponents of President Maso and nil
those who favor a Cuban republic aud
oppose further American intervention.
General Ducasse declares that Gomez
will lead the Insurgents back into the
field before he will submit to disarm-
ing them while American aud Spanish
soldiers remain in Cuba.
LIBERIA ASKS PROTECTORATE.
United States Requested to Quard Repub-
lic From Karopean Encroachments.
Pittsburg, Oct. 17.—Bishop Joseph C.
Hartzell of the Methodist Episcopal
church, whose bishopric is in Africa
and 'who will attend the meeting iu
this city of the Phi Gamma Deltl fra-
ternity, stated to-night that he had been
commissioned by the negro republic of
Liberia to go to Washington and ask
that the republic be taken under the
sheltering wing of the United States.
Threatened Inroads upon its territory
by the Germans, French aud English
have prompted the government to seek
the shadow of the stars and stripes.
"1 am on the way to see Secretary
Hay," he said, "as the special repre-
sentative of the republic of Liberia, to
secure a protectorate, either quasi or
actual. What they want America to
do is to say to the European powers
in Africa: 'We have an interest in Li-
beria: this country belongs to us.'
Whether au actual protectorate cau be
established or not will depend upon
how far the Liberian government is
willing to go, assuming that the United
States answers favorably."
TRANSPORTS FROM MANILA.
The Pennsylvania Ilrlngj Sick Soldier*
From Philippines.
Sau Francisco, Oct. 1«.—'The trans-
port Pennsylvania, which arrived thin
morning from Manila via the Ladronu
islauds and Honolulu, brought thirteen
sick soldiers from Manila and sixteen
from Honolulu.
Among the latter were Clement At-
kins, .lames Dent, Joel Holmes. Wal-
lace Phillips and H. N. Bullock, all
of the New York volunteers. These
men were at once removed to the di-
vision hospital. Phillips ami Bullock
became demented at Honolulu and Bul-
lock was so violent to-day that he was
put iu a straight jacket.
The Pennsylvania brings no news
of importance. She will be fumi-
gated and docked to-morrow. The
transport Zealamlia was docked to-day
and will soon be In readiness for fur-
ther service. The troops assigned to
the transport Senator will go on board
to-uiorrow and the vessel will sail for
Malina on Tuesday.
Plot* IXniiibert.
Loudon, Oct. 7.—The Alexandria cor-
respondent of the Daily Mail, tele-
graphing regarding the anarchist plot
agaiust Emperor William which was
discovered on Friday, says:
"The plot against the Kaiser is hour-
ly proving more important, each ar-
rest disclosing new ramifications. The
documents found disclose a well ma
tured plot to kill Kiug llumltcn.
"Fifteen persona, all Italians, have
been arrested. The original plan wa>
to throw a Iwmb of gun cotton and
fulminate of mercury on Emperor
William's carriage in a narrow street
of Cairo.
"When the Egyptian trip was aban
dotted elaborate arrangements were
made by conspirators to send confed-
erate* to Jerusalem to carry out the
plot during tlte dedicarkm of the Gor-
man Church of thir Kedeemer."

Paddock of the Ktuio land hoard re-
turned yesterday from Iwimar, where
the party, lu company with Plait Hon-
ors aud W, M. Wiley, made an ii*
►portion of the properties of the Great
Plains Water Company. The object of
the trip was to report upon the advis-
ability of selling to the ti rent Plains
company 8,urn acres of slate school
land for which the company has ap-
plied. Speaking of the result "f his
observations, the governor said last
evening:
"I was ntfvcr more surprised In my
life. The Great Plains coliipnny Is the
largest organization of the Mud ill
Colorado, If uot In tlie United Stales.
The company litis been for some time
expending large sums of money III the
valley of the Arkansas, nml It Is a
revelation to talk with farmers who
have located upon laud under canals
of tho Croat Plains system. The fann-
ers seem to me like school lioys who
have Just gained a victory In a foot
ball contest. They are the happiest
set of people I have ever seen. Ev-
erything with I hem Is prosperous.
They have been liberally treated by
the company, and tlie future looks
cloudless.
"Yes," said the governor, "I nm iu
favor of selling the laud to the Great
Plains company. It is worth nothing
at all to the state without water for
it. and as the company offers $:i.50 au
acre, I aili iu favor of accepting the
proposition. I nm In favor of this
plan for several reasons, one of which
is 1 localise . the company is a great

If the state does not part with tills
tract of land, which really ought
never to have been selected by the
state in tlint locality, the ooiupafiy
will go across the line in the state of
Kansas and carry out a large series
of Improvements there instead of ex-
tending in Colorado. While I do not
want to be selfish, it appears good
principle to do what we can for our
own people when it is in our power."
Tho governor says the system of
five reservoirs which nature has con-
structed for use in the region of La-
mar is on the same general plan as
the system of great lakes in the north-
ern border of the United States. Tlio
reservoirs have a combined shore line
of more than sixty miles, and when
they are filled with water will be the
largest body of water between the
Mississippi river and Salt lake. Tho
reservoirs will float steamships and
form a center of health resorts aud
hunting preserves such ns are now tin-
known in the West. Tlio svstcm is
fifteen or twenty miles north of the
Arkansas river, and tho climate and
products of the region elicit the high-
est admiration from visitors. The res-
ervoirs are connected with the river
by canals through which it is proposed
to let the flood waters of the Arkansas
find their way in the spring. One of
the reservoirs is now partly filled with
water.
The school land was selected in the
region a number of years ago when
the "rain belt" was pointed out as tho
most promising district of the state.

bank exceeding $300,000 now stands to
the credit of the Transmississippi Ex-

There are fifteen days remaining. All
railroads in this territory have made
a half cent a mile rate for the last
week of the fair. To-morrow, the 17th,
is Odd Fellows' Day. The committee
is confident of 25,000 members of the

Greatest Infantry Charge In History.
Lieutenant Hobson, in his recent ad-

mentioned, among other things, a spec-
tacle which, from a proscenium window
in prison, he had beheld, and which it had
been authoritatively stated could not be
performed. The prelude lasted twenty
days. During that period he watched the
Spaniards fortifying Santiago. He saw
them fetch guns from their ships and
place them there. And then, just as
though our troops had waited until every-
thing was ready for their reception, he
Raw the unsupported infantry advance, he
heard the singing of the bullets, the bang-
ing of the guns, and through it ail,
through the flanking artillery, through
the tearing shrapnel, through the streams
of fire, through the red and white of the
tarnished dawn, he saw the advance con-
tinue, the flight of the foe, the rush of the
infantry, the dash up the hill, the cap-
ture of the fortifications, the feat which
experts had decided could never be per-
formed. Nor could it before. Nor can it
be duplicated now. To find anything re-
sembling It one has to go back to the re-
moteness of the fighting '50s and the Bal-

It is a good policy in undertaking a new
enterprise, to fully estimate the possible
cost. The government has over-estimated
the cost of the war with Spain, and has
