All the survivors were in good health and had spent the few months laboring on the Cassiar Central Railway, and have enough money with which to reach the States.

Vice President Star Not De Able Attend the Senate This "Winter. to NEW YORK, Sept. 24. The Press says: It Is possible that Vice President Hobart may be unable to be president of the next session oZ the United States Senate. More than that, it Ls now recognized as a serious probability that he will not be in physical condition to accept a renomlnation as the running mate of President McKInley in the next campaign. The disease from which Mr. Hobart suffers is kidney trouble, not acute, but of a form requiring absolute rest, lor a long time. The fact has been known to his friends but this is the first announcement that his illness ls so serious as to threaten an actual withdrawal from the duties of his public position. This illness began with an -attack of the grip in Georgia last spring. lie returned thence to Washington, where he suffered a relapse, being connned to his house for several weeks. Then he went to Long liranch and recovered sufficiently to Join his friend, the President, during a part of his outing at .Lake Champlaln. Since his return last Tuesday to his home In Paterson, Carroll Hall, the Vice President has not visited his office in the savings bank, building. It Is said that he can make no effort without exhaustion. His private secretary says: "The trouble with Mr. Hobart is that as soon as he feels strong enough to work he pitches in so hard that he makes himself 111 again." It is now nearly six months since the Vice President, despite long periods of rest, has been able to devote time continuously to business. Civic Duty of Dank. New York Financier. A few weeks since the Financier, in an editorial under the above heading, called the attention of the banklrg ani commercial interests of New York to the great Injury which was being done the city through the Increasing use of soft coaJ as a fuel. It was pointed out that anything fL.t made the city less attractive from a visiting or residential standpoint had a direct bearing on these interests and that a fa.'l in the price of property endangered eveiy mortgage obligation held by financial institutions or individuals. We are pleased to note that the article has been appreciated at its worth, and that the Merchants Association, which Includes on Its membership rolls practically every bank in the city, has taken up in earnest the right against the sott coal nuisance. There is no necessity for turning bituminous coal in any city on the Atlantic seaboard, and especially Is its use in New York an expensive economy. We hope that the Merchants' Association will continue the tight until the nuisance is entirely abated, both on land and water. New York is the show place of America, and It cannot Jeopardize Its eminent position in this particular. The few thousands saved individual consumer of coal are nothing, compared to the millions of dollars which are brought to the city toy visitors and those who are attracted as permanent residents. The large Insurance companies, holding as they do, mortgages running into millions of dollars, ought to foe interested above all others in aiding this crusade against a rapidly growing and Insidious evil.

Jasper County's Asphaltum Beds. Rensselaer Republican.

That a company organized mainly to operate in this Immediate section of Indiana should name that comparatively unusual substance, asphaltum, as one of the two principal minerals to be mined no doubt seemed strange to most of our readers. But now the Lafayette papers state that the company is not only about to put down numerous wells for oil in and adjoining Jasper county, but they state also that the company is preparing to work extensive deposits of asphaltum in Jasper and White counties. The existence of extensive beds of a black, inflammable, partly coal-like substance in the eastern part of Hanging urove township has long been known, and the Republican has described samples of the substance: It covers large tracts of country, is from one to several feet below the surface and several feet in thickness.

CONDITION OF DREYFUS

EXCITEMENT OP MEETING I1IS CHILDREN HAS CAUSED REACTION, And It May Be Necessary to Send Him to Malta to Regain Ills Strength Scenes at Vlllamurie. LONDON, Sept. 25. The Paris correspondent of the Standard says: "The excitement of meeting his children has produced a serious reaction In the condition of Dreyfus, and it is feared that it may be necessary to send him to Malta or Madeira-" PARIS, Sept. 23.-The Petit Bleu this morning denies the reports in circulation regarding the health of Dreyfus, which, the paper says, despite rumors to the contrary, is improving. DREYFUS AXD HIS CHILDREN. Family Rennlon in a Country Place Close to Carpentras. NEW YORK, Sept. 24. A copyrighted dispatch to the Journal from Carpentras, France, says: Alfred Dreyfus's cup of happiness, was filled to the brim to-day. He sleeps to-night, exhausted with the emotions of the day, but it is a restful sleep, that marks the turning of the tide of suffering toward convalescence in both mind and body. It Ls. almost a sacrilege to lay bare to the world the scenes of the family reunion in charming Villamarle this afternoon when Dreyfus clasped In his arms his two young children, whom he had riot seen for five years. The little ones came from Paris in charge of a relative. Their arrival made complete the happy family reunion. It was a charming picture that "was presented to the privileged callers. They saw Dreyfus seated on a large wicker chair In a glass-Inclosed shelter in front of the house, his children at his knees, and Mme. Dreyfus by his side, while gathered around him were stanch, faithful Mathleu Dreyfus and various other members of the Valabregue and Hadamar families. The autumn weather was mellowed by the soft breezes of southern France. The sun poured down brightest rays that made the whole country radiant with natural beauty. It seemed to instill new life into the martyr and added to the emotional joys of the day. It caused him to exclaim: "Is it true? It seems as though I were In a dream." Dreyfus to-day. for the first time since 1804, enjoys the full happiness of domestic life. He made the acquaintance of his own daughter, for when he was thrown into prison she was a baby a tew months old. Now she Is a bright child, overjoyed at seeing her father, whom she had keen told was away on a long Journey. During the years of Dreyfus's imprisonment the true facts were kept from the children. They know nothing of the Isle du Diable, the Rennes trial or the pardon. It his been a problem for the parents how to break the news to them, for they must know eventually. The boy Is eight years old. bright and observing, his mind developed sutticlentlv to comprehend so terrible a story. His father's martyrdom may be un folded gradually to him. To-day he saw and heard things at Villamarle which par tlally revealed to him that his father has been suffering some great torture. Villamarle Is a country place about a mile rrom here. This town is typical or soutnern France. It is hundreds of years old. picturesque and sleepy and - outside the rush of the world. It lies west of the main railway line from Paris to Marseilles. The nearest city ls Avignon, twenty miles dis tant. while Marseilles and the Mediterran can are wlthnl a ftw hours' travel. All about are other villages with white houses and flat roofs. Occasionally the ruins of ancient walls and fortified gateways of some old castles are seen. The fields are filled with vines and olive, fig and lemon trees. It ls the garden of France. Villamarle ls a small estate of perhaps twenty-five acres, covered with trees and gardens of flowers. If Is the country place of Dreyfus's sister, Mme. Valabregue, where she usually spends the summer. Since the condemnation of Dreyfus she has remained there continuously in the strictest privacy, receiving nobody, going nowhere. The estate was not evert kept in goocf order. The gardens and lawns' showed signs of neglect. All were in mourning for Dreyfus: Since his return all has been changed. Villamarle has been restored to a charming resort. The house, which stands near the road, is old-fashioned, built of stone and two stories high, with many large rooms and long windows extending from the floor to the celling. On the ground floor are the salon, dining room and smoking room, all somberly furnished. Dreyfus has a front corner bedroom, facing the east and south, where the morning sun pours In. From the numerous and beautiful retreats offered to Dreyfus by relatives and friends. he chose this charming villa of his sister, and selected it even In preference to the gorgeous home proffered by the Prince of Monaco. One reason why Dreyfus went to Villamarle. is his great affection for his sister, who is twelve years older than he. She always was proud of his accomplishments and instilled the precepts of integrity and honor in his mind early in life. Tha second reason was the unusual sympathy expressed by the people in this region. "Vive 1'Armee" rarely ls heard about Carpentras. In Villamarle to-day were Dreyfus, his wife and two children. Mme. Valabregue, her son, Mathleu Dreyfus and his wife. M. Kahn and his wife, the latter Dreyfus's sister, and Mme. Hadamar, his mother-In-law. Great seclusion ls maintained. Visitors are stopped at the gate by a strongly armed servant. Very few persons outside the family have seen Dreyfus, and then only for a few minutes. The excitement which kept him up the first day after his release now has passed away. He is quite weak and needs careiui attention and nursing. His wife never leaves mm. How Did Jonannt Votef PARIS, Sept. 24.The Petit Bleu asserts that Colonel Jouaust, president of the liennes court-martial, voted for the acquittal of Dreyfus. ANOTHER CHICAGO SCHEME It Is Now Proposed to Orsjanlce a Na tional Civic Federation. CHICAGO, Sept. 24. The executive com mlttee of the Civic Federation of Chicago has authorized its president, Franklin H. Head, to appoint a committee of twenty-five to organize a national civic federation. This is to be composed of men representing dif ferent sections of the country and different phases of social, economic and political questions of the day. The object of such an organization is stated to be to provide for a thorough discuFPion arid consideration of questions of national Import affecting either the foreign or domestic policy of the United States; to aid In the crystallization of the most enlightened public sentiment in the country in respect thereto; and to promote necessary legislation in accordance there with. The leaders of the Chicago federation have contemplated this move for wme time. deeming it essential if a national work were to becoma anything more than educational. In January, 1S0S. the Chicago Civic Federa tion called a national conference on primary elections and municipal reform, which was held In New York, and was attended by representatives of over forty of the largest cities of the United States. The Impetus given by this conference to primary election reform agitation resulted in both New York and Illinois securing new laws at the ionowing sessions or their respective Legis latures. But beyond this and the publics tlon and distribution of Droceedinea. the Chicago federation has found it impractica ble to go. in August, lwis. it called at Sara toga a national conference on the foreign pollcj of the United States, which, after two days of animated debate by leading men or an parties, unanimously agreed on some broad general principles which called for further effort to render it of permanent value to the country. This work could not be followed up by the Chicago organization. Thf four days' trust conference, recently held in Chicago, was not expected to agree on general principles, but it - was believed the free discussion by representatives of so many schools of thought would furnish material and a basis for more thorough work hereafter. It ls to make it nossible to follow .up the practical lines suggested by the con ference cnat tne national civic federation is projected. Mangled by a Theatrical Train. JEFFERSON VI LLE.

SaTed CHICAGO, Sept. 24. During a severe wind and rainstorm this evening the steam barge Cleveland, lumber laden, sank In the harbor, near the mouth of the Chicago river. Captain Henry Davis and a crew of eleven men were rescued by tugs, with considerable difficulty. The Cleveland left Frankfort, Mich., Saturday, bound for Chi cago, with two hundred thousand feet of lumber. Tho boat sprung a leak off Waukegan, and owing to her water-logged con dition, was driven on a reef while attempt ing to reach the Inner harbor here. After the crew was rescued, tugs dragged the half-sunken vessel into the inner harbor. The Cleveland was built thirty years ago. The life-saving crews of Jackson Park, Chicago and Kvanston were summoned on a dozen different errands to rescue pleasure seekers on yachts reported to be in dis tress. Many boats had rough experiences and two were missing late at night. A score of small sailing craft In the Inner basin suffered severely after their owners had abandoned them, several being over turned by the violence of the wind. The yachts Prairie and June, which left on cruises early in the day, had not returned to their moorings up to midnight. The form er is a stanch craft and is supposed to have found shelter on the Michigan shore. Fears are entertained that the June, which ls less seaworthy, may have foundered. Some anxiety ls also felt for the tug Dorr, from Michigan City, with two scows in tow. Yachts Cnpnlzed. TOLEDO, O., Sept. 24.

Two Priests from Japan Open Mis'Ion In San Francisco. SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 24. Two Bud dhist priests from Japan, Dr. Shuye Sonoda and Rev. Kakuryo Nlshljama, have arrived In this city and are about to open a mis sion for the conversion of their fellow-coun trymen. Services will be held weekly, and printed tracts which compare the merits and beauties of the Buddhist faith with the nev.er doctrines of Christianity will be dis tributed freely. They will teach that God is not the creator, but the created; not a real existence, but a figment of tha universe, and that pure Buddhism is a better moral guide than Christianity. After the mission among the Japanese residents shall have been fairly established, the priests will turn their attention to the white people. Our primary object is to instruct the Japanese wno are here," said Dr. Sonoda, 'but that ls not our goal. It is onlv a pre liminary step, which we snail follow with pamphlets among Americans, aettlng forth tne meaning or Buddhism. We believe that we are governed only by the law and not by any personified God. We have within us the highest guidance, the Kharma. God is not a real existence, but a figment of tne human imagination. nation. I firmly believe isuddhlsm ls a uciici mux fcuiuc man Christianity. Our plan here is nrst to establish a church, then an evening school for our own people, and. as we become more proficient in Kngllsh, to communicate with those among Americans who wish to investigate Buddhism."

LOS ANGELES, Cal., Spt. 24. Official re ports of two battles between Mexicans and Yaquls.have Just been received here. Oen. Luis Torres had declared the campaign sus pended until October, but the Yaquis were not consulted on that point. Lorenzo Torres .lso appears to have made different ar rangements. On Sept 14 Lorenzo Torres crossed the river to Vlcam, a town supposed to have been captured by Luis Torres in August, and found the Indians. They attacked his rear guard and a running fight ensued. The reports say the Indians were dispersed with nine killed. The Mexican loss was five killed and nine wounded, among the latter Lieutenant Colonel Navarro, of the eleventh battalion, one of the best officers on the Mexican side. The report of a battle on the 18th comes from another source, also official, and its statements of the number of killed may be accepted. According to this report, the forces under Colonel Harnadez, number not stated, encountered one thousand Indians near Lake Zaqueca, a small lagoon between Torin and Potam. The Indians retired from the open field and sought cover in the thick woods, where the combat raged for more than two hours, beginning at 6 o'clock in the morning. The report says the Indians were defeated and dispersed, leaving on the r.em eignty-seven dead. The Mexican losses are stated as fourteen soldiers killed and thirty-six wounded. Major Ruiz, of the National Guard, was mortally wounded, and Julian Espinosi. captain of the Yaauis. who are friendly to the Mexicans, and Teleblates, a lieutenant in the ten years' war. were Kiuea. An interesting feature of the reports ls the statement that several of the lnhabitans of river towns, who were taken prisoners py tne xaquis in July, nave been released and have returned to headquarters. Heretofore the Mexicans have represented the Yaquis as invariably torturing and killing an prisoners. Factory Bolldinjrs Darned. CHICAGO. Sept. 24.

Antiquarians have this imam 1;camaa Ka Ktif Irtf nr In Wrllrh thA celebrated utchtield Law School was held . . . . . , . .. and have nhotocranhed it. It is now a tum ble-down building and has been shunted to the outskirts of the place. For years it has be;n tenanted by families of colored people. All accounts agree that this was America's first law school, and a recent Connecticut writer unon historical matters alludes to It as "the Litchfield Law School, now the Yala law School. Chief Justice Andrews vpr iirvn not mk thl claim. II howe fays that upon the abandonment of the Litchfield school the Yale Law School was started, but not until two years had elapsed. But the Litchfield Law School was a famous institution, and it did more than anything else to bring this quarter of the State into the prominence it has since maintained. It was established by Chief Justice Reeve about the close of the revolu tion and in 17VS the Hon. James Gould. LL. D., became associated with. him. The latter continued the school until forced to close It because of his ill health In 1S22. Tapping Reeve loved the law as a science and studied it philosophically. He considered It as the practical application of re ligious principles to the business affairs or life, and hence was. perhaps, somewhat different from some of the legal practition ers or our time. At the age or etgnty was a man venerable In character and ap pearance, and he descanted to his student with glowing eloquence upon the sacredness ana majesty or law. His lecture room ls now a part of the Dankls house on Weal street. It is Judge Gould's lecture room, which was the latter's own office, which has Just been photographed. Judge Reeve was the first eminent lawyer In this country who dared to arraign the common law of England for its severity and refined cruelty in cutting off the natural rights of married women and placing their property as wen as their persons at the mercy of their husbands, who might squander their possessions or board them up at their pleasure, ' James Gould s "Headings" Is one of the rnot condensed and critical pieces of com position to be round in our language and for cleanness and logical precision It is declared by astute lawyers to be rarely equaled. He was a polished, finished lawyer before the bar and never spoke In the most important case over an hour. "lie could," said Gideon II. Holllster. "shoot a quiver full of shafts within the circle of tne target with such certainty and force that they could all be found and counted when the contest was over. As a Judge his opinions are unsurpassed." Un day a prosperous old farmer nitkd Judge Reeve to draw up his will. The far mer naa tne oia time notions of the croDerty rights of women. His unmarried daughters had for years helped him to accumulate his property, but when it came io maKing nis will the father had n thought Of them, but wished tr Imva nil he had to his sons. When Judge Reeve found this out he exclaimed: "I won't oraw up any such will, and If I were n. daughter of yours I'd dance on your grave Deiore you a be in it a month." This story is toia by J.

Lincoln and tho Asjralnaldlsta. Philadelphia Press. When Abraham Lincoln was trylnj o save the Union a little band of snarling critics was barking at his heels and trying to create a public sentiment against him. Tha popular name for these men was "copperheads." If they had succeeded in their purpose, every one is willing now to admit, it would have proved disastrous to the country and to humanity. The patience of the martyr President was tried by this situation, but it was only on rare occasions that he gave evidence of It. But at one time, when he was explaining why he saved a young deserter from being shot, he gave expression to hi feelings toward these copjerheads in the following language. Said he: "Must I shoot a simple-minded soldier boy who deserts, while I must not touch a hair of a wily agitator who induces him to desert. This ls not the less injurious by getting a father, or brother, or friend Into a public meeting and there working upon his feelings until ho Is persuaded to write the soldier boy that he Is Ashling in a bad cause, for a wicked administration of a contemptible government, too weak to arrest and punish him if he shall desert. I think that in such a case to silence the agitator and save the boy is not'only constitutional, but withal a great mercy.' There are men now who call themselves anti-lmperiallsts, but who are more appropriately known as Aguinaldists. Some of them have the assurance to invoke the name of Lincoln in support of their caue. The above quotation proves how widely Abraham Lincoln would differ from the Aguinaldists of to-day if he were living, and how he would brand with his fine scorn, their unpatriotic attitude.
