The Measure of Success. In a recent contribution to the Phila delphia Saturday Evening Post Maurici Thompson gives utterance to some sound sentiment and philosophy re garding our social and business life. He says: "Americans have been described by foreigners, and by sincere home-bred critics as well, with great show of jus tice and frankness, as worshipers of the money god. On the surface of out life, both domestic and national, we dc expose a great area devoted to sordid aspiration. And, after all, there may be less evil in this fact than a hasty judgment would comprehend. To a de gree, financial success is a just measure of superior intelligence and character. It is indisputable that the periods ol highest, civilization have always been strongly marked by aggregations ol wealth. We are apt, in our despair at the thought that we can never be rich, to make the sweeping charge of un righteousness, and even brutality, against those whom the god of gain has highly favored. Do you wish you were rich? If you do, what right have you to arraign the man who has wished the same thing and had it come true? Speaking of American humor, what would be more delightful in that line than the recent financial success of the man who a few years ago headed a so salled army of tramps and marched in to Washington? A shrewd negro ex pressed a sound philosophy when, just after the revival of prosperity in the south, he said: "lie po' white man done grab what de rich white man use ter hoi' fas'. I tell yo\ w'en de bottom rail git on de top o' de fence dey's somefin' a gwine ter happen!" Money is not happiness, nor is financial success the whole of life. A very little observation shows that our existence here gathers such enjoyment as it is capable of real izing from sources not controllable by the purchasing power of money. The laws of health, for example, are more important than the secrets of trade in the race for a true goal of human suc cess. Of what avail would millions of money have been to Keats when he be gan to .die at 20? The flawless health of Gladstone at 80 made his voice a na tion's trumpet blast. Bismarck's sound nerve centers were more to Germany than the gold of all the banks. A sound body, with a sound character imbuing it, will command success when a na tion's overflowing treasury may be wasted in vain against the tide of ca lamity. In a word, success comes of health. Not mere physical equilibrium, but that higher health which insures contentment based upon justice, char ity and righteous regard for life, is the sine qua lion. A healthy soul in a pure physique will find its way to such suc cess as may well be envied. Again turn ing to Gladstone for lofty example, we see how the currents of his moral aspi ration and his political ambition ran together through a long, beautiful and powerful career. Weakness of char acter makes even religion a reflection from insipidity; force of character ad vances every object that it touches. 11l directed, it plunge* its bearer, and mayhap a nation with him, into the whirlpool of evil; well directed, it brings the true success, which may be but a happy life on a remote farm, or a long series of public triumphs for the lasting good of mankind. And as phys ical health has a strong influence upon character, it should be assiduously guarded in our homes and schools equally with moral health, which also gives efficiency to the whole human or ganism. The measure of success is but the measure of a well-lived life." When Sarah Norlin returned from her vacation recently Charles Eckstroni met her at the station in Topeka, Kan., and shook her hand so vigorously that Sarah fell and broke her leg, reports a local exchange. Eekstrom paid her doe tor's bill, and thought the matter was settled finally until he got notice that Miss Norlin had entered suit for s.'!,oot damages. The case was called and Eek strom testified that his violent hand shake was merely an extfberant expres sion of his joy at seeing Miss Norlin again, and that lie meant no harm. The jury thought that Eekstrom had done about the right thing when he paid the girl's doctor bill, and rendered judg ment in bin favor AFTER ONE YEAR. Dons Comment Officially on the Santiago Sioge. Supreme Council of War Kiunrratca (jieu. Torn I and Ilia Ofllccra lor Failiiij: to Hold I lie I II) and Ueli rllK-a lli<* lllmrr» of If* Urli'iidrn. Washington, Oct. 30.—The bureau of naval intelligence was made public an interesting' document published in theotlu ial organof the minister of war at Madrid and containing- the sentence of the supreme council in the proceed ings instituted because of the capitula tion of Santiago in the summer of lb<Jß. The defendants named in tin- proceed ings are Jose Toral Velasquez, general of division and the successor of (Jen. Linares in command of the Fourth army corps of Cuba; Gen. Mesa, chief of the brigade of Guantanamo; Lieut. Col. Velarde, military commander of Baracoa; Lieut. Col. Alegria, com mander of Sagua Pe Tanamo; Capt. Hidalgo, commander of Alto Songo; Capt. Garcia, commander of San Louis; Capt. Martinez, commander of Palma Soriano, and Capt. Clemente Peyro, commander at El Cristo. The defendants named, besides (ien. Toral, are the commanders of the outlying posts which were included in the ca lculation of Santiago. The most interesting feature of the report is the fact that the court lays great stress upon the importance of the American naval forces and de clares that without their eo-operation it would have been impossible for the American forces to have compelled the surrender of Santiago. The sentence of the court concludes by vindicating (ien. Toral from any censure for the surrender of the city, stating that ho had "used every means of defense re* quired by the laws of honor and duty as attested by the brilliant battles sus tained from June 22 to the day of capitulation and the many casualties in generals, commanders, officers and privates during said battles. Ihe other defendants are exonerated, hav ing acted under the instruct ions of their commanding general, who In turn had the sanction of his home gov ernment for each step taken. l'efore reaching this conclusion, however, the court goes into what may be characterized as a brief but com prehensive history of the whole Cuban campaign from the Spanish stand point, the various reverses met with from time to time being cited as ex planations of the final surrender of the cit.\. which was pointed out as be ing inevitable from the time the Amer ican squadron blockaded the liarbol and cut otV all hope of outside assist- Rnce. It is declared that during the bom bardment of Santiago on May :JL about 100 shots were fired by Spanish lat teries and the Colon in a space of 45 minutes. The lact, that the Colon aided this bombardment is new. In ferring to the sinking of the Merrlmao in the channel at the month nf the harbor, the court declares that she was sunk by the combiner! lire of the Reina Mercedes and the water bat teries, a statement not in agreement with Lieut, liobson's view of the affair on board the Merrimac. Of the bombardment by the Amer ican squadron on June C> the court says that over 2,000 projectiles were discharged by the hostile fleet, result ing in serious injuries to the Keina Mercedes and the garrison quarters at the Morro. It says, however, that no guns were dismounted by this bom bardment. '"One chief was killed, however, and eight men killed, two chiefs, five officers and r><> men wound ed." This is rather a larger casualty list than was credited to this bombard ment at the time. Following the loss of San Juan and Caney the court declares that the water supply was cut ofl' and that the military force surviving the two days' lighting of July 1 and 2 wan entirely inadequate to defend the protective works around the city. The total force available is placed officially at 7,000 infantry and 1,000 guerillas. The remainder of the forces were garri soning the Morro, and the bat teries at Soeapa and Punta Gorda Referring to garrison stores the court says that at the time of the sur render all that was left to the army was a million Spanish cartridges. These would not have lasted for more than two attacks on the part of the enemy. The Argentine Mauser am munition, of which there was a con siderable supply, could not be utilized for want of weapons of that t;, pe. not could the Remington ammunition, these weapons being in the hands of the irregular forces only. The provisions in the city at. the time of the surrender consisted only of rice, salt, oil, coffee, sugar and brandy, and of these only about ten days remained. There were over 1,700 sick in the hospitals who had to be fed, to say nothing of the soldiers who spent day and night in trenches after tliree years of campaign, in. • last three months of which they sel dom had meat to eat and vere bften reduced to the rations mentioned above." In addition to the decree of the court, exonerating the above-named de fendants there are two supplemental decrees directing the captain general of New Castile to take steps to li\ the responsibility for the fact that there were not sufficient war materials in the city to provision Santiago at the time of the outbreak of the war. .tlartin Say* "Keep flip l»hnd«." Topcka, Kan., Oct. .'io.—Kx-United States Senator John Martin, a demo cratic leader, said yesterday in the course of an interview: "Many of us may not be in harmony with the na tional administration regarding the disposition of the Philippines, but in the defense of the flag in the inland we all have a patriotic duty to perform Our authority practically has been es tablished in the Philippines and no right-thinking citizen will demand that our military forces be withdrawn. It would never do to haul <ilo\»n the flag." CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1899. MARCONI'S INVENTION. Teat* of UlrclrtN Trlrjrapli)' Tlail* by Naval tlfllceri Prove Saliafaetorjr A Demrlptlon ol (lie Method. New York, Nov. 2. —The cruiser New York and the battleship Massachusetts returned last night to their anchorage in the North river after being em ployed for three days in evolutions fur the purpose of demonstrating 1 the working of the Marconi system' of wireless telegraphy under varioub practical conditions. The operations were under the direction of a board of three natal officers appointed for the purpose. Mr. Mareont was handi capped by incompetent instruments which had been brought to the United States simply to neport the interna tional yacht race, and was unable to give the government as thorough a demonstration of the capabilities of the apparatus as he would have wished, the request from the navy de partment for a government fl-st hav ing been made too late to permit a change of plans without interfering with his contract. Hut the result of the working of the three sets of in struments employed in the tests of the past three days was to show the government board that there is a prac tical utility in the system, which would be of inestimable value to naval vessels during evolutions "I any kind, and especially when on scouting duty. The members of the government board will be obliged to call attention to 1 lie fact that during these tests it was possible for any instrument lo ented within the circumscribed radius of transmission to destroy the effect iveness of other instruments at any time. While the Massachusetts, for instance, was telegraphing to the New York, the operator at JNavesink sent a message at the same time and the result on the receiving side of the New York's set was a mass of unreadable characters, caused by two series of electrical impulses reaching the in strument at the same time. This' was dene deVberately. Mr. Marconi said he could prevent this in terference on the part Of a third sta tion. but that he would not demon strate it during these tesls, because he had not yet received his patents for that feature. Mr. Marconi allowed a representa tive of the press to inspect his instru ments. The method of transmitting sii-d receiving messages by his syslcm, as now \i« d. may be explained as fol lows. \ wire runs froirt the earth, or water when aboard ship, to the in strument and thence t<- the top of a mast. A powerful ::!>ern'iting cur rent is made tr. Ho*,- up the wire by means of an induct-on coil, which is made alive by closing n key. similar to an ordinary Morse telegraph set, except that it is much larger. While the key is closed the rapid alternating currents pass up the wire and set in motion electrical wa''es in all direc tions. A rapid openi J*g and closing of the kev produces a del, and a dasli is made b\ holding- ti e key down a loncer period. The'- the characters of the Morse alphabet are made and anv telegraph operator can read what is sent or received. When an instrument is not in use for transmission, a switch disconnects the key and attaches a receiver wlicli is likewise connected with the mast or the earth. The electrical impulses sent out by Any otliej" station are caught b\ the wire at the mast and conveyed to the receive*, where tiicy magneti/e in an extrenely slight de gree a small bar, cno-igh to cause minute metal tilings nesr by to clus ter about it. This closes anolher cir cuit, which works a recording instru ment like the old fashioned telegraph register and sets a siunll hammer, calked the tapper, t*> thumping against the glass tube which holds the bar and filings. Ar soon as the sending operator releases his key and stops the electrical im| ulses from flowing from his wire, tie attraction of the bar for the tilings ceases and the thumping of the tapper causes tliem to fall back into pTa<r\ This opens the other circuit mentioned and the marker 011 the register drops back from the paper and at thr same time the tapper stops. 'I he sh Tt and sus tained impulses from the sender thus cause do!- and dashes to be marked 011 the paper by the register through the delicate but exact work of the coherer. THEY DESIRE PEACE. Native ( liiof* in the placid ol tlin daiitio OffeV to Submit to American IK ulo. Washington, Nov. 2.—Mail advices to the war department indicate import ant negotiations in the Mohammedan section of the Philippine arc hipelago outside of the much discussed terri tory of Sulu. Through the efforts of Mr. Kngelsk- JoTin, a gentleman of Norwegian birth who en joys the confidence of the lu galo chiefs in Mindarmo, overtures i-t peace have been made to (icn. Otis at Manila Mindanao is almost equal in area to Luzon, being one of the two great islands of the Philippines. The Mohammedans there number 1.10,000 and Spain has maintained little more than nominal sovereignty. f*iiTrt\ ol these chiefs held a conference with Mr. Kngclskjohn at Samboa and drew up a form of treaty proposing terms of peace. They have suffered great ly from the inroads of the Moro.s and offer to submit to the authority of the United States on the sole condition that sufficient American garrisons be established in the island to protect them. These proposals were submit ted to Gen. Otis, on lhe arrival of Mr. Kivelsk jolin. but what action has been taken is not yet. known. All Helons to I ode Sam. Washington. Nov. 2. —The positive statement is made here by authority that Spain does not retain possession of a single island in the. Philippine archipelago. This is culled forth by tjie declaration in the Spanish eortes of Count D'Almenas .luit through ig norance the American peace commis sioners had allowed three islands at the northern extremity of the archi pelago to remain under Spanish con trol through their definition in tin treaty of the boundary of the group. There is stated to he no doubt as to the sufficiency of the treaty clause t' cede the entire archipelago. UNDER FALLING WALLS.

Unidentified woman, said to have been caught by the portion of the Leonard building wall thai fell into the street. Williams. employe of the Leon ard Seed Co. Several persons had narrow escapes from death and two were injured. The cause of the collapse is un known, some claiming that there was an explosion in the store of S. F. Leon ard. dealer in seeds, others saying that the walls fell without apparent cause. The generally accepted theory is that there was an explosion of dust in the seed store. The crash came with less than one nunute's warning and Mr. Leonard, wlio nolieed the walls of the building shift slightly, called to his employes to run for their lives and they all rushed for the street, the last of them getting through the doorway Just in time. After reaching the street the women employes, of Leonard rushed into the home of Mrs. Agnes Whelan, 135 Lake street. Mrs. Whelan, how ever, noticed that the house was in danger and refused to allow the wo men to remain. Less than half a minute later the east wall fell and the house, together with the adjoining one, was buried beneath the ruins. Adjoining Mrs Whelan's house and next to the seed building stooil a two story frame structure occupied by Kelso Bros., dealers in paper. A num ber of young girls and two men were at work at the time and a panic fol lowed in their efforts to escape. The two men smashed the windows and in that way rescued the girls. FUNSTON VS. IRELAND. KanauM (General liitttructa III* Attor iie}* 10 Sue the .Archbishop lor Al lotted Criminal l.ibol. Albuquerque, N. M„ Nov. 2. —Gen. Frederick Funston, who is en route home with the mustered out T*vi>n tieth Kansas regiment, has wired his Topeka attorneys to bring proceed ings against Archbishop Ireland, of St. Paul, for criminal libel because of statements attributed to the arch bishop in a recent interview. Gen. Funston also instructed his lawyers to begin criminal and civil prosecu tions against the Monitor, a Catholic paper of San Francisco, which tirst printed the story. 111 a recent interview in Chicago, Archbishop Ireland was quoted as. say ing that Funston had been charged with looting Catholic churches in the Philippines. The charges alleged to have been referred to by the arch bishop were made by the editor of the Monitor, soon after the landing of the Kansas troops in San Francisco. The Monitor stated, it is said, that Fun ston had taken two magnificent chal ices from a certain Catholic church in the Philippines and had sent them home to his wife. Archbishop Ire land. in his Chicago interview, was quoted as calling upon Funston to deny the truth of the article and sue the editor of the Monitor for libel, or the public would be obliged, against its will, to believe him guilty of the criminal acts of which he has been accused. St. Paul. Nov. 2. —Archbishop Ire land appeared somewhat surprised when he heard that Gen. Funston was reported as about to sue him for libel on account of statements attributed to him in a Chicago interview. He said he had made no charges agains Gen. Funston. but had in conversa tion expressed the opinion that, the statements of the San Francisco pa per charging the general with having taken a priest's robe from a Philip pine church, should be denied by 'Jen. Funston at once, lest a failure to deny led to a wrong impression. The arch bishop admitted the substantial accu racy of the Chicago interview..but de nied that he had made any libelous statements.

"THE FIGHTING TWENTIETH." Kamai Soldier* Who Srrriil In (he I*htllp|>in<-« are t.lven a t.rnii«l He eepllon on Their Keturn to Ti>|>rUa. Topeka, Kan., Nov. 3. —Returning warriors never received a more royal welcome than that accorded Thursday to the soldiers of '"Kansas' Famous Fighting Twentieth" on its arrival from San Francisco. Gen. Funston came in for the lion's share of atten tion shown to the officers and the "lit tle hero of Manila" was literally taken off his feet by his admirers in their eagerness to display their regard for him. At every station cheering crowds met the soldiers and greeted them in unstinted fashion. Snow in the mountains delayed the trains and it was afternoon before the first reacTied Topeka. The three otTi er sections followed closely, the last squad of soldiers being landed short ly before 4 o'clock. So many thousand people were on the platform and the railroad tracks that the train had to fairly crawl into the depot. Whistles screeched, can non boomed, do/ens of bands played and the cheers were almost deafening. From every window leaned soldiers waving hats and veiling. They leaped from the car steps before the train stopped and fell into the arms of friends, who grasped and hugged them as they passed them onto the eager relatives and sweethearts. Fathers and mothers pushed through the crowd in a frantic endeavor to find "their boy." Many affecting scenes were enacted. Gen. and Mrs. Funston were in the rear Pullman of the lirst section. When the train came to a stop there was a rush to get to them and it took half a dozen strong men to keep the people off the car 'platform. A woman spied Mrs. Funston at a window and pushed her baby up to be kissed by the general's wife. Mrs. Funston complied promptly, and Immediately dozens of mothers reached forward with their babies to be kissed. Fun ston was hardly off the car before he was half dragged, half carried up stairs into the dining room. Solid blocks of people filled every street leading to the depot and the city was taxed to its utmost to care for it« guests. It seemed as if the whole state of Kansas had come to town and it is estimated that 60,000 outsiders were here. Tons of bunt ing had been used in decorating the buildings, and electrical and other decorations were iiskl with a lavish hand. It was after 4 o'clock when the pa rade to the city began. A guard of honor for the. boys of the Twentieth was the civil war veterans, members of the National guard and many civic organizations. There were 32 bands in the parade, the performers -1111111- berinsr nearly 1,000 musicians. The entire parade line of over two miles was a mass of cheering humanity. Gen. Funston, with his wife, rode in the carriage of honor, while Col. Met onlf 011 a white charger and Lieut. Col. Little on a prancing black, took their appointed stations at the head of the regiment. All received ovations at every point along the line. At the state house Chief Justice Dosfer, in a brief speech, introduced Gen. J". K. Hudson, who on behalf of the peopTe of Kansas presented the beautiful sl,- 000 sword to Gen. Funston. In a short speech of acceptance Gen. Funston said lie predicted that in one vear's time the island of Luzon will be as quiet as Massachusetts. "1 return to Manila," sair he,"and unless 1 get sick or disabled. I will not return till the war is over." FOR CRIMINAL LIBEL. Several Lahor Lradrra are Indicted by the lirand Jury at Chicago. Chicago, Nov. 3.—George W.
