One of the greatest of thfcse benefits, he said, was that the display of the latent powers of the empire had dlssl-| pated the notion which had spread throughout the world that Great Britain's star had set, that she would nev%r fight again and that any adversary only needed to press boldly enough to tfbmpel her to yield. Now It was seen that she conld copy the brilliant examples of the past. The empire was undoubtedly safer and the cause of peace more secure.

If it had not been encountered now, would have strengthened and grown more dangerous. The British thereby had learned a lesson regarding home rule for Ireland. When they had fought in the past against Irish home rule they had not realised what sort of a light could be maintained by a hostile government against its suzerain, no matter how overwhelming the power of the suzerain.It Is supposed that most of the missing deckhands who were on the lcrtver deck were washed down the river. The boat lies down about 100 feet from the Illinois shore, the fore part of the hurricane deck being under water. She appears to be a total wreck.

FraacUco, Topcka, May 14.—Governor Stanley has received a letter written by Foreign Minister Lansdowne, at the request of King Edward VII, thanking the Kansas legislature for their resolution of sympathy at the, death ot Queen Victoria. This Is tlie third communication the legislators have received from King Edward since they passed their resolution of sympathy. In the first they were thanked for their "sympathy and loyalty." They objected to this phraseology, which placed them In the attitude of lDeiug loyal to the British throne, and the king's letter was expunged from the record. The king heard of this action and Immediately expressed his regrets to Embassador Joseph H. Choate, explaining that a subordinate had sent out the wrong letter of thanks to the Kansas legislature.

When their representative was asked yesterday who was buying the big blocks of Union Pacific, he said: "I think that this will be one of the best methods of presenting the questions of school life, and If the students enter into this work with the right spirit the stage will be a good place to solve the problem. I think the play can be adapted to the situation at Washburn, and with the co-operation of the students the presentation will be successful." If the home rule Mil at 1893 had been passed and an Irish government bad been established at Dublin, it was not very extravagant to aBBume, In view of the exhibitions in the house of commous and elsewhere, that it would have been a hostile government. What, then, would have been Great Britain's position If she had not only to meet the South African republics, but concurrently a hostile Ireland? There were good reasons before for resisting home rule, bjlt atcce the South African experiences bad taught the power and capacity tf modern instruments of war his heaters knew that If they allowed hostile Irish leaders unlimited scope to mnk« warlike preparations they would have If engaged in war with any other power also to begin again the task of coAiiuerlug Ireland.
