CHICAGO, Jan. 27.-Arthur R. Barnard, teller of Zion City Bank, the private financial institution established by John Alexander Dowie four years ago, has disappeared. His father, C. J. Barnard, cashier of the bank, reported his disappearance at the Enelewood nolire station ln.rt.iv, 11 is of the belief that his son has been kid naped and Is held for ransom, a belief which is shared by Mr. Dowie and several members of his church. The kidnaping theory is not entertained so strongly by the police. They think it is more probable that young Barnard has been held up by robbers and possibly Injured seriously, if not fatally. The senior Barnard reported to the police that his son had a small sum of money with him when he left his home on Saturday evening. Still another theory of young Barnard's disappearance is based on the fact that he was shot a year ago, while resisting highwaymen. Both robbers were convicted and sent to prison. It Is thought that one of these men may have regained his liberty and waylaid Barnard for revenge. Barnard's acoounts at the bank are in perfect order. First Issue of the Workman. Omaha Bee.

One of the forms was made up entirely of nonpareil tabular work figures and statisticsa form that had taken two men four days to set up. The printers hurried it upon the press. With my watch in hand I waited until the devil had planed the type down and then gave directions to turn on the steam. "The engine started with a jerk. There was a crash and a rattling noiso like hall on a tin roof. A kind of falntness stole over me as I threw off the power belt,' and when I went back behind the press to see what the trouble was there lay the nonpareil form piled up in the pit beneath like a dollar's worth of Russian oats. . "The devil had forgotten to screw up the clamps on the form. "Well, some one got a scoopshovel and we filled up the chase with a lot of old plate matter a love story and an article on how to make a self-opening gate." Obituary. CLEVELAND, Jan. 27.

BUFFETED BY BIG SEAS
LA GASCOGXE LOST TWO LIFEBOATS AM) AVAS BADLY BATTEIICD. Passengers Terrorized hy the GnleTrouble UreniiiK for the Muritlrue Congress Steamship Movement. NEW YORK, Jan. 27. The French liner La Gascogne arrived in port, to-day, with two of her life boats smashed, the rails on her starboard quarter twisted and broken, and her four hundred steerage passengers not yet recovered from the fright occasioned by the battering the ship received from two terrific seas. The saloon passengers suffered a moment of terror which will cause them to remember the voyage. When La Gascogne left Havre she had not been headed westward many hours when the first of the bad weather developed. It came In the shape of gale3 from many points of the compass, which lasted for thirty-five hours. The first of the gale, during which a great sea swept across the liner, was encountered early Friday morning. In a short time after It began to blow, itg strength had so increased in fury that the vessel was badly rolled and pitched in making her way through the high waves. A little before 3 o'clock a sea swept across the port siue forward. Life boat No. 1 was caught by the wave and the boat tackle of the davits was. snapped. The gale finally abated, but the following day a second storm arose. A heavy sea struck the ship on the starboard quarter, catching life boat No. 2, wrecking and rendering it useless, smashing the chocks breaking the davits flush with the deck, twisting all the railings on the starboard side out of shape, and knocking a hole about four feet square through the turtle deck. The water poured down through this onto the spar deck, making a fearful roar and driving the steerage passengers almost frantic. Shortly afterwards the weather abated and La Gascogne had smooth sailing into port. STItCWX WITH WnKCKACiC Vancouver Coant a Graveyard for Shipping Cutter Will Investigate. TACOMA. Wash., Jan. 27.

When told of the death of Queen Victoria he said: "Her history is unique and her Influence does not die with her, but will last for generations. This influence is very farreaching and it should have the result of vnltlng all the English-speaking nations and peoples in the closest bond of fraternity and friendship. Indeed, I think It will have this result, and bring especially Americans, Canadians and Englishmen into a closer and warmer friendship. "If the United States would only be a little more generous, an arrangement might be arrived at by which the United States, England ahd Canada could join In buildins an international Nlcaraguan canal Without forts and without soldiers. The absence of forts and soldiers on an international canal In Nicaragua would be the best possible guarantee of peace. In case it were threatened by foreign nations the combined fleets of England and the United States would insure its defense."

We Americans are not lowers of kings and queens. But, despite this well-founded prejudice of a sovereign peoV
pie, the tribute of unstinted admiration has been yielded by all of us to this fine life, to this luminous example, to this honrt of gold, and. clasping hands with Qr old motherland. Ameiica. too. stands with bowed head besides this bier, a sharer in the universal grief."

British Sovereign Does More Than Rrlgn as a. Figurehead. Kansas City Star. The declaration that the King of England reigns but does not rule has produced a wrong impression in many quarters. It has frequently been assumed that Victoria was a mere figurehead for the actual government. It Is true that the crown has not vetoed an act of Parliament since the days of William III, 200 years ago. 'But that does not mean that the head of the monarchy Is without Influence in the government. The predecessors of the Queen ventured to retain favorite ministers in the face of adverse votes in the Commons. Victoria did not go so far as that, but her intimate acquaintance with the affairs of the realm, her wonderful memory, her good sense and her womanly tact combined to make her a most powerful forco in the government. As time passed and statesmen came and went, the Queen, remaining the same, had the advantage of unrivaled experience in dealing with all manner of questions. Even the venerable Lord Salisbury was a youth In public affairs compared with his sovereign. As a girl, Victoria showed that she would not allow what she believed to be her constitutional prerogatives to be encroached upon. Her firmness was exhibited two years after her accession In what was known as the "bedchamber conspiracy." The Whig ministry of Lord Melbourne had. been defeated and had resigned. The young Queen, then only twenty years old. summoned Sir Robert Peel, already a famous statesman, thirty-one years her senior, to head the new ministry. He found the women in attendance on the sovereign were strong Whigs, and insisted that they bs replaced with others more in sympathy with the administration. The Queen replied that she could not "consent to a course which she conceived to be contrary to usage and repugnant to her feelings." Consequently Peel refused to retain the premiership and Lord Melbourne was forced to resume office. Eleven years later Victoria again engaged in a conflict with a Minister this time with the brilliant Lord Palmerston. A man of quick action, he disliked delay, and chafed at the necessity of securing the Queen's approval for the dispatches which he sent as foreign minister. She warned him repeatedly, and he promised to do better, but the trouble continued. His sovereign found she frequently knew of some important dispatch only when it had been already sent, and could not be recalled. Victoria finally drew up a vigorous memorandum on the subject and sent it to Palmerston through her prime minister, Lord John Russell. This brought the foreign minister to terms. Another occasion, when the Queen entered on a contest with her cabinet, was on the return of the Liberals to power in 1SSQ. Mr. Gladstone on the issue of antianexatlon, had a majority of more than 100 in Commons. His policy Involved the evacuation of Candahar, recently captured by Lord Roberts. When the speech from the throne was read to Victoria she protested against the paragraph announcing the plan for evacuation. A long argument followed, lasting for several days, and it was only when the chiefs of the cabinet called upon her in a body a few hours before time for reading the speech that she was made to feel the necessity of giving a reluctant assent. In 1S92. when the Liberals again swept the country, she tried to avoid making Mr. Gladstone premier, on account of her dislike for him. She had to yield simply because no other Liberal would take the office. An occasion when she had better success In Influencing the ministry was during the controversy with the United States over the Trent affair. The note to Washington, prepared by Lord Palmerston. was so insulting that war would probably have followed its sending. The Queen had it modified until the language should give no grounds for offense. Under present conditions the Influence of the sovereign of England depends largely on his personal ability. It Is safe to predict that King Edward VII will have as much power in directing the government as he shows fitness for. It will probably bo years before his Influence can equal that of his mother.

LIVE ON THE RAILROAD P. II. DIDLKY AXD HIS WIPE IX THUIR D YX AG It A 11 1 CAIt. Have Traveled 200,000 Mllf s In Twenty-One Years The Only Car of It Kind In the Whole World. New York Herald. Poor Jo's plaint In "Bleak House," "They always want me to move on, move on!" comes Irresistibly to mind when one considers the dynagraph car. For more than twenty-one years Dr. P. II. Dudley, Its Inventor, and his wife häve "moved on" and on in this curious marvel of mechanism. Three hundred thousand miles, or twelve times the circumference of the earth, have been traversed, but, unlike poor Jo, the moving has not been without its compensations, pecuniary and otherwise. For be it known the dynagraph car is the one contrivance extant for ascertaining with true scientific accuracy the precise condition of a railway's roadbed, ties, rails, Joints, bridges and the like. Consequently the superintendents of construction and repairs, the general managers and the directors of all the chief roads In Canada and the United States are largely dependent upon the ability and fidelity of the man who contrived and maintains this curious vehicle. Mrs. Dudley, who has always accompanied her husband, is a woman of culture and refinement. Their peregrinations have enabled her to see all parts of this continent and she has absorbed a vast store of knowledge without being in the least pedantic. She is a musician and has her piano right at hand always. She and her husband are omniverous readers, and their car contains not only a working and reference library pf standard volumes and textbooks, but the newest publications and magazines ad IJbitum. Mrs. Dudley has written a couple of booksf too, but so modest is she about her literary achievements that they have been irinted only for private circulation. The Dudley dynagraph car and track Indicator Is one of the most curious and expensive cars In the world. At the present time It Is standing on a side track in the Grand Central yards at Forty-seventh street and Madison avenue. One end of the car is devoted to the Intricate and delicate machinery that records the condition of the tracks and the roadbed while the other end is devoted to the living apartments. Under the floor provisions, coal and ice are stored for a trip. The whole structure is very sensitive and so delicately balanced that If a caller steps on the platforms anyone inside will instantly feel the vibrations. The shaft, which extends down through the floor, connects the dynograph gearing with the wheels of the car. thus regulating the speed of tho recording instruments. When at work the car is drawn at the rate of twenty-five miles, an hour. At this speed the many neerfle pens vhat play on the surface of the roll of paper as it passes through the machine draw the record in red Ink. This machinery does mechanically what a man falls to do, that Is, it finds where the track is out of surface. The instant the Dudley car passes over a defective spot wehere the deflection is more than three-thirty-seconds of an inch from the true plane it instantly paints the side of the rail a bright blue. Subsequently, when the section boss passes along he can have the track properly surfaced. During the many years that Dr. Dudley has been at work he has made thousands of rolls of especially prepared paper records for the various railroad companies, so that reference can be made yearly to the condition of the bed and rails. The 8trenomatograph, another one of Dr. Dudley's inventions, will record the extension or contraction of rails.. It will accurately measure the spring in a rail between ties as the engine and cars pass over It. The record is made on a narrow strip of phosphor bronze, measured by microscopic gauges. To test the elasticity of steel rails practically, it is necessary to do It with a long rail and weights, but Dr. Dudley has a specially made instrument for this purpose. Ry this practical test It is possible to figure the elasticity down to marvelous minuteness by means of the strenomatograph and a microscope made especially for the work. The question of weights In rails Is a very serious one for railroad companies, meaning a great saving or loss in the yearly record. Dr. Dudley advocates the use of the 100-pound rail in all cases of heavy traffic, because with them the greatest saving is had in rolling stock and the diminished liability to accidents. The cost of equipping a trunk line Is so tremendous that even the New York Central has only about onequarter of Its passenger service lines laid with the 100-pound rails, but it is the opinion of engineers that it Is the only rail to use for long life, service and safety. Apart from these track recording Instruments Dr. Dudley has invented appliances to test the life of railroad ties, their condition and elasticity under pressure, as well as the vibrations of roadbeds and bridges. This Is second in Importance only to knowledge of the Ftate of the rails. The lay mind may not know It, but photography plays an Important part in railroading. Dr. Dudley has a very fine instrument, fitted with Goer double anlstlgmaJ len?es, that will record in the l-1.000th of a second. Photographs taken by this instrument from the rear of the Empire State express are particularly interesting. The light reflected from the frozen river and the snow on the ground ha helpetl to lend brllllancy to the picture, but many photographs taken In the summer time have been quite as good. During the many years Dr. Dudley has been employed In track Inspection he has accumulated records and teats for everything pertaining to railroads, so that his car Ij a wonderful machine shop, laboratory and scientific storehouse. Hut the living end of the car, which Is divided Into compartment?, is quite as interesting. The Juxtaposition of domestic life and business occupation is certainly unique and Ingenious. Space is naturally restricted, but the Dudleys have more home comforts than the average Harlem flat dweller. Mrs. Dudley is an accomplished musician, and the strains of music often come from this car when on a siding in out of the way places, where music is hardly expected. Against the wall of one room a bookcase is hung. The double bed in the daytime is banked up with sofa pillows, and is an Inviting retreat for callers, although there are several very comfortable rocking chairs in the saloon, as well as a large center table, which serves as dining table, a receptacle far

While it is generally near some habitation, there are times when many days are spent in the wilderness, especially when records are being made of tracks through the mountain regions, but wherever it goes Dr. and Mrs. Dudley are its sole occupants. Dr. Dudley has read papers before the leading engineering bodies of this country and Europe at international conventions and other gatherings of railroad men and scientists, and is everywhere regarded as an expert on friction, elasticity, factors of safety, durability of rails, ties and Joints. His car Is the only machine of Its kind in existence. Innumerable patents cover the scores of devices he has thought out and constructed with his own hands. He served a practical apprenticeship as an engineer and rallmaker. He has no children, nor any assistant, and one wonders whence a successor will come when he has "moved on" for the final Journey of all mankind. UK I.Alt;iIS I, A ST. Marconi, the Hlectrlclun, a Practical VounK Mnn. , New Orleans Times Democrat. "It Is very seldom that any great invention becomes a source of immediate profit to the Inventor," remarked a well-known New Orleans electrician yesterday. "One of the most striking exceptions on record is the Marconi wireless telegraphic apparatus, and its history is a capital Illustration of the desirability of having a little practical business sense mixed up with pure genius. Marconi is a shrewd, clear-headed young Italian of about twenty-six, and when he first announced his discovery, several years ago, the scientists of the world were inclined to make light of it and to regard the whole thing as a Joke. This boy seems to be unaware that Hertz and others experimented with the same kind of electrical vibrations, fully a quarter century ago. they said. 'There is absolutely nothing new about this wireless telegraphy of his; the only thing he has done has been to make a few trifling changes in the apparatus.' This chorus of pooh-poohs and depreciation was so loud and persistent at the outset." continued the electrician, "that poor Marconi was practically snowed under, as far as the general public was concerned, and there was a considerable period when little or nothing was printed in regard to him. Meanwhile he was industriously working on his apparatus, and finally it dawned upon his critics that the few trifling changes' which they had referred to so contemptuously were the very things that differentiated the entirety impractical labaratory toys of Hertz and others from a real and effective pystera of noiseless telegraphy. Then they made the additional discovery that, while they wen laughing at him, this sagacious young Italian had been quietly taking out patents on every detail of the plant, and had the process fully protected in every civilized country in the world. That raised a grand howl, for it was Immediately claimed that many of the points covered by Marconl' patents were not original with him; but h had fortified himself with the beet le?al advice before he made his applications, and when the matter got into court later on h was sustained in every instance. Uy that time, of course, there were a dozen different inventora with systems of telegraphing without wire, but every one of them was obliged to pay Marconi a good stiff royalty for the right to manufacture his apparatus. So, in addition to the revenue which In derives from the installations of his own system, he takes toll from everybody eise'. Wireless telegraphic instruments are belns installed on the shijs of nearly all the navies of the world, and tho Invention has bten a great commercial success. I read the other day In a Kuropean technical Journal that Marconi had already cleared fully a quarter million dollars in cash and would probably doubl that amount within the next year or two. I, for one, am very glad to hear it. Such a combination of the practical and theoretical Is very rare and deEtrves Its reward. If Marconi hadn't Jumped In and patented everything insight while the other fellows were laughing at him. 1 doubt whether he would have made enough out of the scheme to have paid for his wir and acid."
