DID NOT CONSENT.
Mcaarr. Wrlgley, I’cllcw and Wll-
llamn called at the Telegraph office
last night to make an explanation us
to their connection with the cutting
down of tho trees. Some of the prop
erty holders on 'that street stem to
have an Idea that these gentlemen
consented to allow thtf park demolish
ed. but -this Is not true, nnd -It would
be dlfhdult to itnd men more Indig
nant over what has been done.
These gentlemen did consent to an
arrangement whereby the middle raw
of old trees were to bo cut down to
ollow a thirty-foot street cut. Thb
would havo left twu rows of trees
standing on each side, giving two
parks Instead of one as formerly. Tho
sldee^a was not to be changed and
only t ;toldest trees to bo removed In
order lo make wuy for tho thirty-foot
road above described. Capl. Wilcox's
plans, they *»y, called -f.rr a rrt-foot
street, which would necessitate the
rutting down of three row4 of trees,
'w same cut down Suturday morning.
Tho gentlemen supposed that Capt.
Wltcov's plans lmd been abandoned, ns
they heard no more of the matter un
til they rose Saturday morning to see
their beautiful park demolished.
It Is stated that the trees wore cut
down between t itnd e o’clock tin tho
morning and lira; ninety-five men
were u. work. The men wore llrat
nrtdn to chop around nit of the trees

MANY
NAVAL CHANGES.
Secretary Herbert Will Find Trouble
* In Fillhig the Places. ■
Washington. Oct. 27 Secretary
Herbert spent an hour with tho presi
dent this morning endeavoring to set
tle a problem which has worried the
naval authorities for several months
and which must be disposed of prompt
ly. Four Important commands are to
be Oiled—the superintendents of the
naval academy, the commandcr-ln-
chief of the South Atlantic station and
the commandant of tho New’ York
uavy yard. th» latter becoming vacant
November 10 by the retirement of Ad
miral Uherardl. Ordinarily these de
tails would not oause so much con
cern, but at present they involve most
of the higher officers of tht navy nnd
numerous changes are likely to result.
Admiral Walker, It U understood. Is
not anxious to accept either of the
four duties, yet his desires seriously
complicate 'the problem. If he could
be assigned to the naval academy the
matter would be simplified, but ho
Wishes to succeed Admiral Greer, as
dtalnMfea of the lighthouse board, next
February. Commodore Selfrtdge has
been slated against his will for the
command of the South Atlantic, which
would leave the presidency of the In
spection board temporarily for Ad
miral Walker. Commodore Slcord, now
commanding the Portsmouth Now
Yard, expects to get the New York
navy yard or the naval academy. Capl.
J. W. Phillips, who commanded the
cruiser New York In Brasil, wants the
Naval Observatory, and Commodore
Norton, Capt. Bruce, Dipt. McNair
and a number of prominent oHlcers aro
candidates for the places.
Secretary Herbert said this morn
ing that he had not yet decided upon
any of the detail*.

THE AMERICAN BUSINESS MEN.
Boorfct, the French Writer, Denominate*
'Ihrm the Modern lierocft*
In his remarkable work, VOutre Mer,”
M. Bonrget, tho noted French writer,
euro* up his comments on the American
It ; In- ifj:iri r.s follows:
Those manipulators of dollars are defi
nitely the modern heroes, in whom th*
force of attack and rcsistanco is analogous,
under forms far moro different to the at
tack and resistance of one of the troopers
of the emperor. They die of it, after hav
ing lived upon it, and after having lived
on that alone. It is tho greatness, it is tho
bourne of this civilization. The intellec
tual life Is in tho background—in the back
ground the sentimental life, in the back-
. - . <1 ri the rfiJifiouH life. Tho velun-
tary life consumes all tho sap of the indi
viduality. It sometimes seems, so over
done does it appear, to work In a vacuum
and without nim.
The Americans often permit themselves
the Justified pleasantry of saying that if
one puts the whole of Franco into tho cen
ter of Texas there would still be a great
deal of Texas around it. It is well to add
that this enormous Texas has not moro
than 8,000,000 Inhabitants. Florida has
not 400,000, and It takes 14 hours In the
train to come up from Lake Worth to
Jacksonville. Thirty states out of 40 are
In analogourconditions. That is tho se
cret of this civilization'. It haa not passed
the period of conquest. Its prodigious
originality resides in this—that tho con
queror haa attained with tho first stroke
the refinement of tho most advanced civili
sation. No similar phenomenon baa ever
It n Hw:n. It will nev^r he seen again. It
is therefore that the leaders of that con
quest of a unique order, the business men,
do not resemble our exchange men, nor
industrial people, our manufacturers or
our engineers any more than Chicago re
sembles Paris or Minneapolis Florence.
I prefer tho towns of old Europe, but I
admire the business men of tho new world.
Now the work done by them with strokes
of Improvi-rd will aro not worth the work
which centuries have elaborated with us,
but the actual constructors of this country
are samples of a moro vigorous humanity.

TRIPTOLOGY.
Some Instances of tho Habit Among Per
sons of Distinction.
Horace Walpole humorously described
as “triptology'* Gcorgodll's habit of ro-
poatlng threo times any remark he might
make. It was emphatic thinking aloud,
and tho author of “Gossip of tho Cen
tury” gives this instance of tho “ triptolog-
Icnl” habit. Tho king was very fond of
tho Weld family and frequently staid at
Lulworth castle, their family seat. One
evening he ottonded a ball thorc, and the
daughter of tho honso, a handsome wom
an, danced so gracefully that tho king ex
pressed aloud his admiration in tho char
acteristic foirn:
“Fino woman, fine woman, flno wom
an 1 Dances well, dances well, dances
well!”
Tho habit ran In tho royal family, and
hlg son, tho Duko of Cambridge, inherited
it. Tho duko attended church on Sunday
mornings and would express in nn audible
tone and with threefold repetition his ap
probation of tho service and opinion of tho
6ermon. On onq occasion tho officiating
clergyman pronounced the exhortation,
“Let us pray. u
“Aye, to bo sure. Why not? Let ns
pray, let us pray, lot us pray,” repeated
the duko from his pew.
On another occasion, while tho Ten
Commandments wero being read, tho duko
thus emphatically Indorsed the eighth:
“Steal! No, of course not! Mustn’t
steal, mustn’t steal, mustn’t steal J”
William IV did not inherit his father’s
“trlptology,” but when any question was
brought before him on which ho wa3 not
preparod to express an opinion ho would
say, “That’s another matter.”
On his deathbed, watching through an
open window tho eun sinking below tho
horizon, ho said reflectively to the arch-
lii-Lnp of Canterbury, who stood near:
“Ah, my friend, I shall not soe another
sunset.”
“Wo don’t know that, sire,” answered
tho prelate, “and I pray heartily that yonr
majesty may see many more.”
“That’s another matter,” replied tho
king.
Didn’t Want Her Lopsided*
Down in Mississippi not so very long
ago there was a young darky who boro
tho classic namo of Sciplo and was tho
happy possessor of two mules who rejoiced
in tho appellations Sam Jones and Mary,
and 60 dearly did ho cherish tho brutes
that ono day when ho met a girl named
Mary ho fell ln lovo with tho dusky maid
en for no other reason, as ho admitted,
than that sho boro tho 6ame cognomon as
tho off mule, and tlioy decided to wed.
Scipio wanted to dn the thing up right
and glvo tho bride a present, 60 he went
ono day to thellttlo country storo, and aft
er examining tho entire stock ho purchased
two hoopskirts and took them back to tho
girl. She was delighted, but pretty soon
sho said:
“Look hcab, Scipio, what fur d’you get
two or deso heah hupcs fur?”
“Why, honey,” responded Scipio, “I
didn’t want’cher t* look lopsldod.”
“Whu’s ’at? Lopsided? Humph I”
“Shoh, honey. I got one fur the right
laig an ono fur de lof’.”
“Well, yeb shoh did get ’em big
enough,” was Mary’s reply. Anil tho con
troversy ended.—St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
The Power of Rapid*.
One ovcnlng some of the men ran
down from their oamp to tell us that a
York boat was coming down tho main
channel. Hero tho rapids are as fierce as
those of Niagara, and no boat has over
boen known to comedown safely. I do not
know when I have scon anything that go
strongly impressed mo. It was a largo
black boat, carried off by the floods above,
with a capacity for perhaps eight tons of
cargo and a dozen men. We could sco her
coming afar off, hurrying down, riding
tho smaller rapids so well that wo thought
sho might poGsiblyrun the larger ones.
But as she {•truck tho great masses of surf
tho first Mow made a large holo in her
side, showing the black ribs. At the sec
ond ebo plunged and turned ovor. At tho
third tho fragmentsof tho hull floated up-
sldo down on the water, and then she
►wept past us, a confused mais of splin
tered timbers.—“A Woman In tho Mac

Why He Objected.
Sister—How do you like the young
woman from Boston?
Brother—Ob, very well. Only she uses
6uch big words. I gave her a flower, and
sho wouldn’t call It by anything but its
scientific name.
Sister—But you always liked botany.
Brother—It wasn't her botany I objoofc-
ed to. It was her ha ighty culture.—

EREAT' RUH 01 STOYES.
At no time haa the housewife had such an opportunity of getting the finest and
best stove or range made at less price than she has had to pay for an inferior
one. We have a largo F*t of •'Charter Oak stoves and ranges that must be sold
out, and we sell them at actual cost. ’There is no one who does not concede that
the Wire Gauze Door Charter Oak la the best. The shrinkage of meats roasted In
a close oven is from 35 to 40 per cent. All meats contain 75 per. cent, of water and
only 25 pef cent of solid matter and the loss that is made In the roasting Is mado
in the evaporation of the i.ilces—which is the vital part of the meat. A ten-pound
sirloin, medium or well done. If roasted in a solid oven door stove will be reduced
to six pounds and four ounces of roasted meat, showing a loss of three pounds
and twelve ounces of juice. While the loss Is 37H per cent, of the total weight It
shows the enormous loss of 50 per cent. Of the juices.
When « Charter Oak WJre Gauze Door Stove or Range Is used in roasting a
sirloin, medium or well done, it will be reduced to nine pounds and eight ouncea
of roasted meat, showing a loss of only eight ounces of Juice. While this loss la
5 per cent of the weight, It shows the very small loss of but t per cent, of juice.
"The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world;” also the pocketboolc. The
wife and mother is consulted about tho buying In every family. This Is as It
should be. for no one takes such a wise, unselfish Interest in everything connected
with the house. The choice of the cookln* stove or range certainly should bo left
to her, and in every case where a woman is familiar with the Charter Oak she se
lects It, because she knows It will do perfect work and effect a saving In time, la
bor and fuel, and will outlast any others. Furnish your cook with a Charter Oak
and you will prevent any excuse for a late meal or a poorly cooked meal. Read
the following dialogue between the lady of tho house and her cook:
Lady of the House—Do you still like our Charter Oak os well as when we first
got It?
Aunt Caroline—Oh, every bit and grain as well, ma’am.
Lady of the House—I am expecting some friends to visit us 'during tho Dixie
Fair and I wont you to do your very best cooking.
Aunt Caroline—Indeed I will, ma’am. There’s no trouble to cook nice with that
stove. The Wire Gauze Oven Dodrs makes ft so much easier than stov-ts I have
been tat to, and 1 have so much more time to make every thing just right. Just
look at dat roll. De Boss hla self will be all smiles when he Jumps off de elecln-
trlsh car and gets a whiff of it. You know he loves them better than anything
any how. I never have bad luck with bread, biscuits and cake now.
Lady of the House—Why, how do you explain It?
Aunt Caroline—Well, ma’am, I don’t havo to watch everything so close for fear
It will burn up. You know how careful you liavo to be with a baked custard; It Is
so apt to burn on top before tt Is baked through. The Charter Oak bakes It per
fectly without any danger of burning. And then In roasting a turkey I don't have
to keep on basting it every five minutes, it roasts perfectly brown without It and
without drying it up like tight ovens do. And you kno^r how crisp my biscuits is
Charter Oak Stove. Yes. ma’am, let your kinfolks come on and I'll keep them
busy while dey are at your table, and when they go down to the Dixon’s Fair they
won’t hab to be hunting up dem boots what I hear all tho chllluns talk so much
Besides the Charter Oak we have a great many different kinds of stoves which
come cheaper than the Charter Oak. We will also sell them at cost. So if you
call and see our stock you will find exactly what you want in both.
