The New York papers havo for pome time past b'eerl teemlnR with adver tisements of vnnloiw Yukon Rold com panies repre?eptlnB required .capital reaching Into the millions. The ad vertisements are' written in a manner Intended to captivate the capitalist of every degree and stock in most of the companies Is offered at a dollar a fehare. It Is probnfile that the flamlnR adver tisements which appeared in the New York Sunday papers two days ago will cause thousands of dollars to pour Into the ensh. boxes of the various Klondike syndicates that' have recently been born in the vicinity of AVnll street, as no sum, however small, will be refused. When a capitalist loans money at home he usually wants llrst mortgage; Judgment notes: Insurance policies and quit claim deeds from prospective lieits'as securitybut if attracted bythe features of a far away mining scheme he is ulUIng to cheerfully part with good money with nothing in return save a stock certificate which In many Instances popf-esses value only accord ing to the. quality of the paper upon which It ls'printed. It Is possible that the purchasers of Klondike mining stock, that Is la sued from any locality save Klondike, may receive large dividends from the investment. The experience, of stock buyers of thfipffsf, however, tends to cast shadowJ-tiyxfn&ho: rosy dreams of the speculatoi. An exchange remarked recently. In giving advice to ambitious residents who were anxious to seek fortunes In Alaska, that "the distance between-Sfinvtltim hml Klondike is twice ok'Vj)MgiovStiSirn trip." This may be'ttRDttji fo"cn pi fill flint Is Invest ed In Klondike fatocks.- Parties with, money to invest will do well to hesi tate before they pour It Into the treas ury of any western land or mining In stitution.

Of course it lsr ridiculous, when looked at In a humorous mood. Hut, then, so Is the view which most persons take of the funcUOris'ora sch'opl teacher In the primary and' Intermediate grades. When a man gets sufficient learning and sufficient culture to fill a chair in one of our big universities the Ameri can people know enough to pay hlin a siilary on which ho can live in comfort If moderately economical, and they de fer to him as one of the truly valuable end estimable workers of the day. In fact, there is as a rule nothing too good for a coife& p'rofessor'. He can be, If he wishes To be, a social pet, a much sought companlonjof other foremost inn andsT "big buij" generally.

Why should there be "five or six hun. dred dollar a year" teachers7 Is not n, teacher's work fully as Important as that of a base ball pitcher, who gets two to throe thousand a year, or the horse Jockey, who often receives a con gressman's pay7 Is there anywhere In the whole list of the public eervlco a place more vitally Important, to both the Individual and the state, than the teacher's place? If ho, we have never discovered It. And the very fact that the American peoplo are willing to let that place be filled by "five or six hun dred dollar" talent, or that they are so niggardly as to refuse to pay more than this paltry wage to talent equal to the task, shows conclusively, in our opin ion, that tho average citizen does not yet appreciate tho significance of tho school room or estimate with even ap proximate Justice tho part which it ought to and must play in tho develop ment of civilization. Kept captive for months in a Ha vana prison, the daughter of President CIsmetos, of the Cuban republic, Is now on trial for treason, with a sent ence awaiting her of banishment to Spain's North African hell-hole, Ceuta. And this Is Spanish chivalry and Span ish warfare! And yet Spain thinks Americans will not Interfere! Certainly a Curious Case. A murder case of peculiar details Is attracting attention In Indiana. Rev. William K. Hlnshaw was a clergyman residing near Indianapolis. One morn ing he was found lying In the road In front of his house, with two bullet holes' nnd seventeen knife cuts In his body. Nearby lay his wife, uncon scious and dying from a bullet In her brain. He said ho had been awakened the night before by a pistol shot nnd by a scream from his wife, who ex claimed that she had been Bhot. Two burglars were In the room. He grap pled the larger one and his wife the other. In the struggle the burglars prevailed, preacher and wife were dragged out Into the roadway and left for dead. This story was not believed for sev eral reasons. When Mrs. Hlnshaw re ceived her death wound the pistol was held so close to the side of her head that the powder was driven Into her temple, her gown was scorched, and the pillow was stained .with blood. IJloodstalns were also on her husband's trousers when they were found In the yard. .Ir. Hlnshaw said the two burg lars ran east from the house after ho fell In the road, but his pistol, with three chambers empty, and his razor were found west of the house and In a position where the robbers could not have thrown them unless they had re turned to the yard after the struggle. Furthermore, the wound received by Mrs. Hlnshaw was In the temple, and. If received as her husband stated, the murderer would have been compelled to lean over the husband and press the pistol against the wife's head. She was asleep when tho shot was fired, and her"denth.yas not necessary either to the safety of the alleged burglars or to their securing the coveted booty. Brain experts testified that she could not have spoken or moved after receiv ing the wound, for Its Immediate effect was to paralyze ever motor center nnd produce Instantaneous unconscious ness. The burned pillow case and gown nnd the particles of powder driv en Into her temple by the shot demon strated beyond doubt that she was killed while lying In bed. Then, too, every knife cut that appeared upon tho arms and body of the minister bore unmlstnkeablo evidence of being self inflicted, for on tho arms the cuts were Inside, nnd not on the outside muscle, as would be the case If received In warding off blows by another, and those on the left breast began near the shoulder and circled nrourtd upon the abdomen, while those on the right be gan and ended the same way, showjng conclusively, according to the prose cution, that the first were made with the left hand of Hlnshaw himself. Lastly it was shown that Hlnshaw had been unfaithful to his wife, that she had remonstrated with him for It and that ho therefore had a motive for putting her out of his wny. On this evidence Hlnshaw was convicted of murder in tho second degree and sen tenced for life Imprisonment, a sen tence he is is now serving. But hero comes in the second chap ter In this curious cose. A convict at Michigan City, one Noah Bnney, swears that he and two other burglars, named Whitney and Van Tnssel, en tered tho Hlnshaw house and that while he was disposing of Hlnshaw's razor and pistol Hlnshaw engaged In a struggle with Whitney, during which the preacher was shot and gashed. In the meantime, the third burglar, Van Tassel, had shot Mrs. Hlnshaw. This story appears the more probable. That a would-be murderer. In order to avert suspicion would convert himself into a series of human remnants seems on the surface somewhat dubious. But If Hlnshaw has been sentenced and Imprisoned unjustly, what a grievance he wi.ll have, and Justly, against thoso who put faith in purely circumstan tial evidence. A Choctaw Indian, condemned to death by three Judges of his trlbo for killing a relative, Is on a tour with an Indian ball team of which ho Is tho star membcr and which played In Kansas City Saturday. The condemned man, Tonaka, who is six feet tall and a fine looking speclman of his race, is on parole nnd will return to his trlbo to be shot at tho end of the ball season. If tho Judges really desired to have tho murderer executed they should have assigned him to tho Eastern Leaguo as an umpire and allowed the bleach ers to carry out the sentence accord ing to the dictates of their own feel ings. Tho New York Sun recently stated that few of Buffalo Bill's Wild West United States cavalrymen were ever in tho United States Cavalry. Nate Sauls bury hastens to correct this Impression. He declares that every man but one In the cavalry detachment wac in the army March 1 last, nearly alt as mem bers of the Blxth Cavalry. The same Is- true of the artillerymen with the combination, Evidently tho United Stntcs cavalry Is to bo congratulated upon losing them, it their manocuvers with tho Wild West show were the best that they could do. The Toronto World Intimates that If the United States doesn't soon ceaso from enacting protective tariffs Eng land may In retaliation Impose a ten per cent, discriminatory duty on Amer ican wheat nnd corn. "Canada," says the World, "can easily grow nil tho wheat required by Great Britain nnd she can supply it as cheapty as tho United States. A 10 per cent, discrim inatory duty against tho United States would benefit Canada, Oreat Britain nnd the whole Empire, nnd It would at tho same time teach tho United States a much-needed lesson." If England can stand It to risk such an experiment In view of tho experience attending her first Corn Laws, tho United States can. Ex-Governor Flower has come to be regarded as a man whoBo opinions It, will be safe to adopt In. tho matter of stocks. There Is n fair sized army composed of men who follow implicitly tho tips given In tho course of his or dinary conversation. The latest an nouncement from this oracle is that In tho case of wheat the bull market Is still Intact and will be ns long as this export is going on and that the inter est has really but Just begun, for the advance will continue. Let us for tho former's sake hope ho is correct. Experiments recently but quietly made to test the practicability of talk ing tolephonlcally by cable from New York to Southampton have, It Is an nounced, ended dlscouraglngly. Vocal sounds can be transmitted but the cost would range from $30 to $100 a min ute. Consequently the American people will have to be content with the more economical pastlmo of talking through their hats. Altgeld has been heard from again. He ailses to remark that the country is worse off than ever, save In an acclr dental wheat boom, and even the grow ers of wheat ought, he thinks, to got two fifty-cent dollars where they now get one hundred-cent one. Wo suspect that Altgeld Is biased. Seven railroads traversing the west ern and northwestern wheat belt have ordered 00,000 empty cars for uso In moving the 1S97 wheat crop and yet a enr famine Is feared. Those cars in motion side-track many a Popocrat. Senor Sagasta'e discovery that the United States Is not going to take any decided Innd in the Cuban game had better be held subject to revision. According to the New York Evening Post, the American people are "relaps ing Into barbarism." The Post editor evidently needs a change of air. Th? History o! the Cod? of Honor Apropos of tho ridiculous duel between the count of Turin nnd Prlnco Henry of Orleans, In which the count, resenting Henry's printed animadversions on Italy, pinked him on the shoulder and ran him through tho bowels, the Springfield Re publican says: Tho duel In Europe will undoubtedly bo Inherited by the 20th cen tury. In which It may survlvo for a con siderable period. According to the pres ent outlook it may flourish In Latin and German countries for a full hundred years after Its disappearance as a society function in the Anglo-Saxon nations. In Germany tho "nfCalr of honor" at the present day Is very common, so much so that under the baneful Influence of tho kaiser's extreme militarism tho army of ficers aro grown accustomed to pierce with their swords on tho spot, without tho formality of a challenge or the con cession of an adequate defense, such un happy civilians as may rufllo their feathers or Jostle their spurs and ban gles. In France, notwithstanding the spread of republican Ideas, the duel, to quoto the celebrated remark of La Bruy ere, Is still "the triumph of fashion of vanity." c In nn articlo on "Tho Duels of AH Na tions," In the Cornhlll magazine some months ngo, James Pcmberton-Grund, who himself onco fought n French vis count, and Is nn expert on the duel's his tory, declared that the surest way to the favor of society women, and conversely to that of the mob, In France Is even now through tho duel. And It will not disap pear, ho asserts, until the French women crush It with their disapproval. So there is nothing btrango In Prlnco Henry's readiness to light hecauso of his reflec tions upon the Italian army in its dis astrous Abyssinian cnmpalgn. The duel is still tho fashion, and It rests on vanity, not requiring special courago as ordln arlly fought. Death is not sure to result from It. and, on tho other hand, the sur vivor, If he happens to havo given a dra matic account of .himself, becomes n sort of hero In both the salons of tho aristo cracy and tho music halls of the popu lace. As Americans we can only suggest that kinctoscope. pictures of the modern encounter would make It more complete and up to date. c Tho duel, Indeed, seems to suit tho gen ius of the French people. French laws today do not forbid It. and the man who kills his adversary In a fair encounter, according to tho code, is as sure of ac quittal as thu southerner who might help to lynch a negro. The French havo never mado much of athletic sports, s.nd tho old Anglo-Saxon fisticuffs, tho parent of modern pugilism in England and tho United States, never found favor with them In tho settling of insults or quar rels between man and man. They ad mlro tho person skilled in tho rapier or tho pistol much moro than tho athlete and boxer. "A blow Is not on answer to u blow," says tho duel code prepared by that great authority, the marquis of ChateauviUard. nor Is tho apology, oven, accounted sufficient satisfaction for one who has been struck by another. And all this Is true today In France, although Cardinal Richelieu. 2ia centuries ago, nf tcr his brother had be'en killed In a duel, used nil his power to stamp out tho prac tice. Before tho cardinal came to Issuo his edicts 0,000 Frenchmen wero killed In duels between 15S9 and 1C07, or about one Frenchman a day for tho period. Several noblemen were hanged by Richelieu's or ders, but oil his severity availed nothing. Tho duel remains even now, nnd It Is a singular and striking evidence of a fun damental difference between tho Anglo Saxon ond tho continental character, Moro sentimental, romantlo nnd passion nto than tho Englishman, tho continental retains the duel, whllo tho moro Intense ly practical mind of thn Anglo-Saxon has some tlmo since cast It aside as utterly Irrational and Idiotic, nnd especially un businesslike. When tho Englishman ceased being a mere cavalier ond set out to capture tho world's commerco and ex changes, he put aside tho follies of youth, tho duel among them. o Yet stories of duels aro among the most popular and Interesting reading to bo found In all literatures. The writer In tho Cornhlll tells a number of them. Such was tho French Idea of "honor" at tho tlmo that when a certain Parisian editor In 1834 cut tho price of his paper one half, thus Increeslng greatly Its circula tion, ho had to fight four duels with rival editors who disapproved of his business enterprise. Another Illustration of ,tho modern Idea of "honor" eamo In 1872 or 1873 when tho editor of tho Unulols, In describing a certain ball, referred in a generic way to the "eternal sub-lleuteii-ant who plows up with 'his spurs tho laces on tho women's flounces.' " When this editor rcachHl his ofllco tho next day he found twenty-trven challenges on his desk, one of wr.lch ho accepted. Dis abling his antagonist, he was Immediate ly Insulted by another sub-lieutenant, and In this encounter tho editor was killed. These military youngsters had evidently determined to havo his life If it required twenty-seven duels, and that, of course, was nothing short of downright murder. Tho "honor" of tho modern duelist Is very low at tho' best, for many cases aro on record In which ono of the parties pursued unfair tactics In order to save his own life, o Ono of tho most interesting points brought out In nny study of dueling Is that, except In extreme cases, tho tjpl cal duelist generally hesitates to face certain death. This Is apt to take all his courago away, and render a settlement easy. A Scottish officer in Jamaica was challenged by a Creole duelist of gr?at reputation, and In accepting ho stipulated that they should both stand in an open grave, large enough for two to be burled In, and taking the ends of a handkerchief flro their pistols ncrors It. Preparations began, but tho noted Crcolo swooned be fore tho crisis came and tho duel was olt. Tho story Is also told of an apothecary who took all tho spunk out or his chal lenger by preparing two pills of similar appearance, ono harmless and tho other deadly poison, ond stipulated that each combatant Bhould draw ono by chanco from a hnt and each swallow the pill ho drew, on tho spot. It was too prosaic n piece of business for the professional duelist, yet It called for genuine courage. o No better or moro mousing duel story, however, can bo found than the ono very recently told In n southern paper In this country of Colonel William Fltzhugh, tho Virginian of tho later colonial and tho Revolutionary periods. Here again ono meets tho superior hard-headedness of tho unromantlc Anglo-Saxon. Having the choice of weapons, Colonel Fltzhugh, who was a man of undoubted courage, ap peared on the dueling ground with a pot of boiling pea f-oup and two squirt guns, ono of which the amazed challenger was Invited to take. The parties were to faco each other across tho pot and keep squirting the hot soup at each other until the "honor" of all conrcrned was satis fied. Tho burlesque was eo clever and audacious that tho duel was promptly declared off. Yet, of course, only a man of Colonel Fitzhugh's record In war and peace could have done such a thing in thoso days even In America. WANTS TO KNOW. Editor Wllkes-Barro Leader. Dear Sir Since landing in this country about eight years ago I have been ex tremely and Intensely Interested In what you Americans denominate tho national game," viz. base ball. I havo never at tended a game since arriving here, conse quently my knowledge of the game is de rived solely from what I havo gleaned fiom your enterprising Journals. Or, in other words, I might say that my knowl edge of your national game exists ex clusively In tho abstract. I read the other morning In one of your papers where a player yclept Bassett "was In for a couplo of strikes, but plngl nnd a safo slap for Oddle's swift Just gave Dixon occasion to escapo In from second, and that Coogan popped for an arch and Jack McMahon shook tho popper for this kernel and the side changed." Whether or not this means that Bassett hit tho ball In tho E Tlurlbus Erin and Dixon took advantngo of tho Unum Go Bragh when Oddlo perforated tho thorax of tho ball and dlsentergrated Its vermi form appendix by producing syncope around the coast of Its cerebrum, I know not, and I ask you as a humano man and as one whose vlrtuo yet remains un impaired to explain. I ask you again, my friend: when Coog an popped for nn arch did they make him a gravo where the sunbeams rest, or was ho In a moribund, passive, quiescent state, or was ho violently nctlvo? Was there a crater to the volcano after tho eruption? When Jack McMahon shook the popper for tho kernel, did tho popper or the kernel respond first? Where was tho ball at the time and were the players still playing? When "Lyons was a back slider under Dlgglns to a successful point," were tho base ball players still playing? Has tho base ball reporter's epitaph yet been written? Yours respectfully. Miles McAndrcw. SPAIN IS HANK11UPT. Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. It has been denied that Secretary Sher man made tho remark attributed to him about Spain's desperate financial situa tion, but If ho mado It ho spoko the truth. An official statement has been mado by tho Madrid government, showing that Spain's total debt Is $1,703,000,000, that the annual Interest charge Is $70,000,000, that to this must bo added accumulated In terest amounting to $19,000,000 on obliga tions Incurred in the Cuban war, and that tho total Spanish revenue Is $150,000,000. This revenue is llablo to be diminished at any time, but even if It be maintained at $150,000,000. it is barely sufficient to pay annual Interest charges and tho ex pense of carrying on the war in Cuba, thus leaving nothing for the ordinary cost of running tho Spanish government. This public confession of bankruptcy clearly shows Spain's hopeless financial condition. Is It Intended to prepare pub lic sentiment nt homo for an abandon ment of tho btruggle In Cuba? m In tlio Swim. From tho Boston Courier. "Bill, why do they speak of you as a flshy fellow, I wonder?"
