- REIT rsicannnameenciabanasna eee The Hevald--Review. By E. Kifey. MINNESOTA, GRAND RAPIDS - Prince Henry is the power behind the throne infinitely smaller except as to speech-making than the throne it- self. The greatest men are not always in the most exalted offices. It is often with men as with building stones; the they are, the harder it is to them to high positions. The clergyman who returned a check from Tammany hall for the poor of his church wrote an explanatory note in which he referred to Tammany in the most insulting words at his command. Perhaps he was right, but the poor who were thus robbed of fifty dollars may not think so; and if all the money were to be returned because of the filthy avenues through which all money goes all of us might starve to death. And, after all, is courtesy a lost art? The London Times says: “The ex- tension of orchard land in Great Brit- ain, which has been in continuous progress during recert years, has been further emphasized in 1897, the total area now amounting to 224,116 acres, or 15,166 acres more than in 1892, when the aggregate area was 208,950 acres. The three western counties of Devon, Somerset and Hereford alone—pre-em- inently our cider counties—contain 73,- THE NEWS RESUME DIGEST OF THE NEWS FROM ALL PARTS CF THE WORLD, A Comprehensive Review of the Important Happenings of the Past Week Culled From the Tel- esraph Reports—The Notable Events at Home and Abroad That Have Attracted Attention. Washington Talk. The senate committee on territories has authorized a favorable report on the house bill permanently locating the capital of the territory of New Mexico at Santa Fe. A memorial has been presented to the president by a delegation of New York business men, representing some of the well known and _ influential | firms asking that action be taken | looking to the re-establishment of peace in Cuba. The house committee on military af- ‘airs has reported favorably the bill to restore Maj. J. W. Wham to his rank and pay in the pay corps of the army. The report fully exonerates Maj. Wham of the charge on which he was court martialed.

The body was seattered that so much wheat has been exported as to leave no surplus at home. Ex- perts submit the following figures: Wheat crop raised in United States last year (government estimate, 530,000,000 bushels; left over from previous crop, 30,000,000 bushels; total available, 560,- 000,000 bushels; exported since July 1, 145,000,000 bushels; consumption to July 1, 1898 (government estimate), 340,- 000,000 bushels; seed, 60,000,000 bush- els; total, 545,000,000 bushels; balance left over, 15,000,000 bushels. Not less} than 12,000,000 bushels of wheat are now owned by Joseph Leiter, who de- clares that his wheat is worth not less than $1.25 a bushel. Alexander Porter Morse, writing in the Albany Law Journal, says regard- ing the submarine cables traversing the Atlantic between 60 and 40 degrees north latitude: “Eleven connect the Canadian provinces and the United States with the territory of Great Britain; two (one American, the other! Anglo-American) connect France. Of these seven are largely owned,operated or controlled by American capital. while all the others are under English control and management. There is but one direct submarine cable connect- ing the territory of the United States with the continent of Europe, and that is the cable owned and operated by the Compagnie Francais Cables Tele- graphiques, whose termini are Brest, France, and Cape Cod, on the coast of Massachusetts. All these cables be-! tween 60 and 40 degrees north latitude. | which unite the United States with Europe, except the French cable, are under American or English controi, and have their termini in the territury of Great Britain or the United States, Across the South Atlantic there are three cables, one American and twa English, whose termini are Pernam- buco, Brazil, and St. Louis, Africa, and near Lisbon, Portugal, with connecting English lines to England, one directiy traversing the high seas between Lis- bon and English territory and one touching at Vigo, Spain, at which point German cable company has recently made @ connection. The principal and most important submarine cables tra- versing or connecting the great oceans are owned and operated by private cor- porations or companies. They are in number 310, and their length in nauti- cal miles is 139,754. The length of cables owned or operated by state gov- ernments is, in nautical miles, 18,132.” It is only logical thet the tramp who starts out simply to enjoy idleness should gradually and @lmost insensibly degenerate into theft and thence to burglary. The dividing line between begging a living and stealing a living, and also between petty theft and petty burglary that always endangers the comfort of families and at times their lives is so narrow that the transition from the tramp to the burglar is hard- ly perceptible to himself, and the only way to halt the professional tramp is to punish to the utmost the crimes his salling logically leads him to commit, for 100 yards along the track.

A special dispatch from Berlin says a duel has taken place between Prince Frederick Hohenlohe-Waldenburg and Lieut. Schoitz, officers of the Hussars. Both were wounded. The Berlin newspapers report grow- ing dissatisfaction among the Euro- pean shareholders of the Canadian Pacific road:because of the latter’s ag- | gressive policy in rate matters against the Canadian and American lines. The North German Lloyn steamer Kaiser Wilhelm IIL., for Naples, and the French line steamer La Bretagne, which grounded off Sandy Hook, near Gedney channel during thick weather, proceeded to sea after a fe whours.

No Disposition on the Part of the Government to Protract the Closing of the Unpleasant Inci- dent — President Shows Little Personal Concern in the Matter— Will Not Pursue de Lome in Any Personal Spirit—The Affair Now Regarded ers Settled. Washington, Feb. 13.—The personal incident growing out of the publication of Senor Dupuy de Lome’s letter to Senor Canalejas may be regarded as settled. This has been brought about by the short telegram sent by Minister Woodford from Madrid, in which he States that the minister had resigned and his resignation had been accepted before’ he (Woodford) presented the request of the United States that he be, recalled. The officials here feel an’ interest in learning the details of the happenings in Madrid and are wait- ing for Mr. Woodford’s promised full report. But unless this should contain some statement that is not now expect- ed, there is no disposition on the part of the government to protract the clos. ing of this unpleasant incident, and it is not expected that any hing in the nature of a demand for an apology will be made. If a graceful disclaimer should come, that will be taken in the spirit in which it is made; otherwise the matter will be dropped and the re- lations between the state department and the Spanish Jlegation will run smoothly once more through the medi- um of Senor Du Bose, the fir: tary and now charge d'affair It can be said for the president that he shows little personal concern in the matter as it stands, and is not disposed to pursue Mr. De Lome in any person- al spirit, and with this spirit in the head of the administration, the end of | the affair may be said to have been reached. SENSATIONAL EVIDENCE. Col. Picquart Tesifies That Every- thing Was Done to Shield Ester- hazy. Paris, Feb. 13.—There were the usual crowds about court when the fifth day of the trial of M. Zola and M. Perreux commenced. M. Zola and Col. Pic- quart were greeted with hostile cries on their arrival. The court was thronged. . The proceedings opened with the re- call of Gen. Pellieux, who testified that Gen. Saussier, the former mili- tary governor of Paris, desired a pub- lic trial for Maj. Esterhazy, but Gen. Billot, the minister of war, ordered that the trial be secret. Nevertheless, the witness added, the court martial refused to keep the entire proceedings secret, therefore it was impossible to contend that Maj. Esterhazy was ac- quitted by order of the authorities. On Gen. Pellieux leaving the stand M. Zola rose and exclaimed: “There are several ways of serving Trance. You, general, made your campaigns; but I will bequeath to posterity the name of Emile Zola, and uosterity will be my judge.” Col. Piquart was then called and narrated how he had acquired frag- meats of a telegram in 1896 and con- cluded therefrom that Maj. Ester’ was corresponding with suspicious characters. He procured some of Maj. Esterhazy’s handwriting, which, com- pared with certain documents, led to the conclusion that Maj. Esterhazy was improperly using official papers. Col. Picquart’s evidence is of the highest importance and thus far is the great event of the trial. He gave it with passionless, pitiless completeness, covering the whole ground from the moment he was authorized to investi- gate the rising suspicion against Comte Esterhazy until he found himself a prisoner at Montvaloroen. ‘The im- pression it left was that everything had been done by Gen. Pelliux and Maj. Ravary to shelter Comte Ester- hazy from the consequences of glaring breaches of discipline and honor, while Col. Picquart was disowned, packed off to Tunis and eventually arrested. CHINA YIELDS. Demands of England and Germany Are Conceded. Peking, Feb. 13.—China has consent- ed to the British demand for a rail- way from Burmah to Yunnantand. She also agrees to indcimaify the kid- naped Frenchman. Germany has se- cured a concession for a railway from Kiao Chou to ¥Ychau as the price of the murdered sentry and is now casting about for somethipg else to demand. Next month the Chinese board of revenue will pay salaries, half in sycee and half in dollars, owing to the searci- ty of copper coin. This is the first oc- casion of of payment in doilars, but the precedent is likely to be followed, and will thus introduce an extensive use of coined money. A decree has been issued introducing political econ omy and practical science into Chinese competitive examinations, Herr Deitring, the commissioner of Chinese customs, entered the government ser- vice in Chang Tung province.

In addition, two tor- pedo boat destroyers are being com- pleted for Spain, the crews for which have arrived at Glasgow. * O’Brien has just received a letter from DIPHTHERIA IN WINNECONNE. How It Was Stamped Out, After the Modern Treatment Had Failed. “ ‘Thirty-three cases of diphtheria were reported at Winneconne, Wisconsin, and the schools were closed. Of the thirty-three cases twelve were subjected to so-called modern treat- ment; four of the twelve thus treated died, a death rate of 331-3 per cent. Mr. J. Ulrich, a resident of ae conne, had observed the marvelous success Muco-Solvent had met with and in his enthusiastic way induced many mothers to use it. His own family was one of the first infected, Muco-Solvent being used to the exclusion of every- thing else with splendid results. Compared with other treatments, its success was so very pronounced, that Muco-Solvent was generally adopted, with the result that by its use alone the other twenty-two cases recovered, not one proving fatal where Muco-Sol- vent was depended on. We recommend its presence in every home, for all throat troubles. In avert- ing developments of diphtheria, scarlet fever and croup, it is unequalled. Upon receipt of the price, $1 per bottle, the Muco-Solvent Company, 356 Dearborn street, Chicago, will express: it, charges paid. This makes a splen- did article for agents to introduce in their locality, as it is backed by over- whelming and convincing testimony. Forty-page book free.—Chicago Opin- ion, HAD A HARD FIGHT.

New York, Feb. 13.—Levi P Mor- ton’s seven-story office building with frontages on Nassau and Ann streets, and known as the Nassau chambers building, was completely destroyed by fire. The firemen had a hard battle, and for three hours there was every prospect of a great conflagration. Every fire company in the city from Fifty-ninth street to the Battery was called out, The Derby Desk company occupied both the Nassau and Ann stret sides and the basement of the building, where the fire originated, was occu- pied by the Herald Cycle company.
