King Edward, to day, Is suffering from a chill, which pre- mrmntA ViItw attonHInf n.rfa v's church ni- rade of the Aldcrshot garrison. The chill came as the iresult of the King's prolonged stay outdoors, last night, on the occasion Of the torchlight tattoo at Aldershot. The chill Is a slight one. accompanied by symp toms of lumbago. The weather last night was extremely cold, and it rained at Intervals before their Majesties left the brigade recreation ground. King Edward returned to his apartments chilled from the unwonted ex posure. These reports of his Majesty's ill ness have naturally caused apprehension, but there is apparently no reason to antici pate serious results. An authentic statement from Aldershot, this evening. Is to the effect that Kins Ed ward Is slightly Indisposed, but that his In :1h posit ion s not of a serious nature. Sir Francis Laking. physician in ordinary to his Majesty, was summoned to Aider shot early this morning. He prescribed for the King and recommended that to-day be spent In rerfect quiet. Queen Alexan dra and the other members of the royal party attended the service at church, but remained In the royal apartments for the rest of the day. It has been learned that the King arose this afternoon. This is considered a good reason for hoping that his Indisposition Is only temporary. The Court Circular to-night publishes the following official announcement: "King Edward was unable to leave his room to day, owing to an attack of lumbago, caused by a chill." Mnch netter Snnday Mht. LONDON, June IS. Sir Francis Laklng aas In attendance on his Majesty Sunday night, and found the King to be much bet ter. The latest expectation is that King Edward will be able to attend the review to-day. GRAM) PRIX DC PAniS. Won br De St. Alary" Klsll-Konrsan American Jockeys Lnck. PARIS, June 15. The Grand Frix de (Paris of 300,000 francs, distance about one 'mile and seven furlongs, was won by M. E. De St. Alary's chestnut filly Kizil-Kour-gaiu Camille Blanc's colt Retz and Baron Leonlno's colt Maximum ran a dead heat for second place, while M. E. De St. Alary's colt Arizona was fourth. Eleven horses ran and the race was won by a head. There were one and one-half lengths between Rets and Maximum and Arizona. R. S. Siever's Ally Sceptre, Randall up, was never dangerous and ran sixth. American Jockeys were not successful In the contest. Six had mounts, but not one of them even secured a place. Americans at Longchamps lost considerable money on the horses ridden by J. Reiff and Henry. The former Jockey was mounted on Log res, which was the third favorite at odds of S to 1, and which finished last. Through out the day, however, the American riders rode three winners, five seconds and two thirds. The racing began at 2 o'clock in the af rnoon. The Prix D'Armenonvllle was won by Llzette, J Reiff up; Jabot, ridden by Rlgby, was second, while Nivernais, rid den by Milton Henry, was third. The Frlx DIsphan. the next race, proved to be a contest between Exema, ridden by Thorpe, and Lemioche, Rigby up. The former won. The Prix de Castries was won by Kle phlte. Brunehaut. Reiff up, was second, and Kaleldscope third. The Prix Vaublanc was won by Mav ronero. ridden by Thorpe; Hecaldia. Reiff up. was second, and Beverly, Henry up, third. The Prix du Ouc d'Aoste was won by Lamoree; La Lorelei, ridden by Henry, was second; Mokattan third. The contest for the Grand Prix was the fourth in the series. . A shower came Just before It was run and resulted in the open ing of numberless umbrellas, but luckily the rain had ceased when the bell was rung for the start. In the preliminary canter Bceptre naturally monopolized the atten tions of the crowd, and the filly's almost faultless build and easy motion elicited the greatest admiration. Counting Sceptre, the other ten horses and their Jockeys were: Rftz, Stern; Maximum, Lane; Kizil-Kougan. Pratt; Arizona. Thorpe; Ollvares, Watkins; Kakalmeno, Maher; Rob Roy. Mclntyre; Astromee II. Henry; Lognes, Reiff: Bahr Yousouf. Rigby. The horses get off to a good start at the first attempt. Arizona made the running and followed by Kklmono. Lognes and Olivarez. On reaching the middle distance Retz took third place and Kizil-Kougan and Sceptre were together among the last horses which turned into the slope. Retz then drew up level with Arizona; Sceptre aUo made an effort to work up. but Rained little ground, and. falling behind, was prac tically out of the remainder of the race. The two leading horses turned together Into the home stretch and Stern whipped Retx ahead. It looked as though this horse would win. and the crowd began to cheer, when Kizil-Kougn suddenly burst from the group and went after Retz. The strug gle was a magnificent one, and the crowd watched it with intense interest. At this moment another surprise was given by Maximum, who rushed forward and seemed to be overtaking the two leaders. To see these three horses, their heads al mrut together, fly past the post was thrill ing, and the struggle railed forth the cheers of the crowd. Kizil-Kougan won by a short head. The cheering continued, althoueh the victory was not u 'popular on-. Hetz and Maximum run second: Arizona was fourth. Olivarez fifth and Sceptre sixth, a long distance behind Olivarez. The owner of Kizil-Kougan. M. E. de St. Alary, was summoned by President Loubet, i-w received fiom him the congratulations which are customary on this occasion. The Wtting was as follows: Kizil-Kougan, 12 to 1; Hetz. 5 to 4; Maximum, 5 to 1; Sceptre, 3 to 1. MAW BOERS COMB I.N. Enthnslastic Greeting for De Wet Work of Repatriation Committee. LONDON", June 16. Dispatches received here from South Africa, show that the sur renders of Boers are proceeding with the greatest good will. The total of those who have already surrendered numbers 16,500, and the British are extending every possi ble kindness to the men who come in. The appearance of General De Wet at the camp at Winburg was the signal for a great display of enthusiasm. When he ar rived at the camp General De Wet was at once surrounded by thousands of Boer men, women and children, who struggled and clamored to shake the hand of their hero. General Dc Wet mounted a table and de livered an address. He warmly applauded the stanch support that the women had given the burghers during the war, which, he said, had greatly encouraged the men in the field. Continuing, General De Wet recommended his hearers to be loyal to the new government and said: "Perhaps it Is. hard for you to hear this from my mouth, but God has decided thus. I fought until there was no more hope of upholding our cause, and, however bitter it may be, the time has now come to lay down our arms. As a Christian people God now demands that we be faithful to our new government. Let us submit to His de cision." Neither General De Wet nor General Steyn. former President of the old Orange Free State, was ever wounded during the war. General De Wet has not seen his wife for two years. The repatriation committee which has been formed to assist the Boers in return ing to their farms has a gigantic task be fore It. The concentration camps will be converted into supply depots to provide the returning burghers with the means to re build and restock their farms. The wives and families of the Boers will, if desired, be maintained at the expense of the govern ment while the burghers are preparing the farms for their reception. Two- thousand of the national scouts who fought on the British side during the war will immediate ly be disbanded and each scout wilpbe pro vided with a pony and enabled to return to his farm.

DATT0S WANT AMERICAN FLAGS THIS IS REGARDED AS A GOOD SIGN FROM MINDANAO. Civil Government for Snmar General Amnesty to Re Declared on July 1 Peace Prospects in Leyte. MANILA. June 15. Friendly natives In Manila say a report is current among their countrymen that the five soldiers of the Fifth Cavalry who were captured by the Insurgents on May j have been boloed to death near Teresa, in Morong province, Luzon. This report has not been confirmed by the American authorities of that dis trict. Twenty-five membeis of a band of in surgents who were captured while fighting with General Lukban In Samar took the oath of allegiance to the United States and were subsequently released. Four members of the band were killed in the engagement which resulted in the capture of their com panions. The twenty-five who have sworn allegiance have seen General Chaffee and have promised to give him all the assist ance In their power in the work of main taining the present peace conditions in Sa mar. A commission has been sent to Samar to appoint Senor Llorantes Governor of the Island and to. establish civil government there. It is expected that a general amnesty will be declared on July 1; this amnesty will result in the release of the Filipino prison ers now on the Island of Guam. The prospects in the Island of Leyte fcr a speedy termination of the armed re sistance there arc bright. Since the ports of the Island were clcsed, surrenders of In surgents to the native constabulary have taken place dally Henry C. Ide, the member of the Philip pine commission who was assigned to the department of finance and justice, has re ceived a petition from the printers in the employ of the government asking that their salaries be paid In gold or In some other established and nonfluctuating currency. In reply to this petition Mr. Ide said he thought that the conditions of which the printers complained probably would be re lieved. They are now paid in Mexican sil ver. The Chamber of Commerce has presented to General Chaffee a set of resolutions which express the regard with which Gen. Chaffee and the army in the Philippines are held by the business men of Manila. Hattos Want American Flags. MANILA, June 15. General Davis, the commander of the American forces on tho Island of Mindanao, has been informed by Datto Ade that two of the three Moros who murdered the American soldier named lewls were killed in the engagement at Hasan between Moros and Americans last May and that the other murderer has dis appeared. An American sentry belonging to the en gineers was badly cut with a bolo in the hands of a Moro while on duty near Vicana. Several dattos under the Sultan of Min danao have called on Col. Frank D. Bald win, of the Twenty-seventh Infantry, and have asked him for American flags. This action on the part of the dattos is con sidered equivalent to taking the oath of allegiance to the United States. Objected to the Jnilge. MANILA, June 15. When the criminal suit brought by Benito Legarda, a Filipino member of the civil commission, against the newspaper Freedom for having pub lished a libelous article from another news paper of Manila, came up for hearing last week, counsel for the editor of Freedom objected to Judge Rhode, before whom the suit was to be tried, on the ground that when Rhode was a private attorney he had addresed opprobrious epithets to the editor of the paper and had declared that he would not rest until he had landed him in Bilibld prison. Judge Rhode admitted having made this statement but said he thought he was capable of trying the case fairly. Gov. Tnft's Mission to Home. LONDON. June 1.

The remains of Hamlet Jarvis, jr., formerly a member of the Thirty-fifth Volunteer Infantry in the Philippines, who was murdered two years igo by insurgents, were buried here to-day. In October of 1?00 Jarvis was one of sev eral American soldiers who left Balinag as an escort to Jose Buencamlno, Fresidente of San Miguel de Mayumo'. The whole party was captured, taken into a swamp and assassinated with daggers. Subse quently two of the insurgent murderers, Timoto Dhalan and Manuel Gonzales, were executed for the crime, but they refused to tell where the bodies were hidden. Dr. Hamlet Jarvis, the father of young Jarvis, who lives near this city, undertook a search for the body of his son, employing scouts and spending a great deal of money to that end. A few months ago he succeeded In finding his son's skeleton in a swamp, and It was brought here for interment. The remains were buried with military honors by Company A, Fifth Maryland Regiment, of which young Jarvis was a member during the war with Spain.

TO SUCCEED DR. SWAIN DR. WILLIAM LOWE BRYAN PROB ABLY WILL BE CHOSEN. Dr. Strain's Announcement Consider able of a Surprise in Spite of Pre rlous Talk of the Matter. ADDRESSES TO THE STUDENTS BACCALAUREATE SERMONS AT WA BASH AND STATE UNIVERSITY. Address by Dr. J. P. D. John, of De l'auw-Dr. Knne on "Secret of Power" Other Colleges. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BLOOMINGTON, Ind., June 15. The an nouncement of Dr. Swain, last night, at the senior reception, that he had decided to accept the presidency of Swarthmore College came as a surprise, although it was known trat he was hesitating as to a de termination. Only a few days before he had made up his mind to remain with In diana, but on his return from Kansas, on Thursday, letters were received officially notifying him that the conditions he had made as to going had been complied with, and yesterday the Swarthmore trustees wired insisting on an Immediate reply. The result was the official announcement last night. The trustees of the university have not yet held a formal session and will not un til to-morrow morning at 9 o'clock, so a successor of Dr. Swain has In no way been formally considered, but It can be stated, with little or no doubt, that Dr. William Lowe Bryan probably will be the next president of the university. This conclu sion grows out of the almost unanimous consensus of faculty, students and alumni that he is the logical man for the place, and individually the trustees so express themselves. Dr. Bryan absolutely refuses to discuss his probable election, but it Is known that he is willing to accept the po sition, although he does not. court the honor and will In no way take any steps that will Influence his election. In 1893, when Dr. Swain was elected, overtures were made to Dr. Bryan as to his possible election, but he then absolutely refused to consider an acceptance, even if offered him. Now he simply says if the trustees see fit to select him and it is to the best interest of the institution he will accept. It now seems that the trustees will take such action before they adjourn on Wednesday. It is known that Dr. Swain regards him as just the man for the place. William Lowe Bryan Is a native Monroe county man and grew up here. He was born about three miles east of Blooming ton, made his way through school and col lege by working on the farm and teaching, and was graduated from Indiana Univer sity in 1SS4. He is about forty-four years old. and in 1SS9 he married Lothe Lowe, of Indianapolis. His parents were of Scottish descent, and his father was a preacher in the United Presbyterian Church, of which Dr. Bryan is a very devout member. At once after his graduation Dr. Bryan began teaching as an Instructor in Indiana University, which work he has kept up constantly since, with the exception of two years at different times in Europe and a year at Clark University, where he took his doctor of philosophy degree. He first taught English, but for a number of years has been at the head of the department of philology and also psychology and peda gogy. He is one of the most profound thinkers and best platform orators ever connected with the institution. He Is a man of democratic ways and always has been very popular. Soon after the election of Dr. Swain. Dr. Bryan was made vice president of the university, which position he now holds. He Is a man of firm convic tions, but is conservative and always has been the right-hand man of Dr. Swam. He has received a number of offers from other Institutions, but always preferred to stay here, even at less salary. His brother. Prof. Albert Bryan, was president of Vincennes University until a few years ago. when he was elected presi dent of the State Agricultural College of Washington, at Pullman in that State, and he aUo is a very successful educator. Sermon by Or. J. P. I). John. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. BLOOMINGTON. Ind.. June 15. A very large crowd attended the annual bacca laureate exercises of Indiana University at the gymnasium this afternoon. The ad dress was made by Dr. J. P. D. John, of De Pauw University, and Dr. Swain, presi dent of Indiana University, presided. Music was furnished by the college organization. Dr. John's subject was "The Domain ol Faith." He spoke in part as follows: "The domain of faith is as broad as the universe of all living beings. It underlies all the activities of men. It is the warrant of every movement in history, whether in dividual, social, political, national or cos mopolitan. It is frequently urged as an ob jection to the Christian religion that it retstt on faith, but instead of being a valid ob jection this is indeed its strongest claim to the support of intelligent men. for it is the basis on which everything human proceeds. "The processes of life show the validity, authorltv and universality of faith. Physi cal life "is pt-rpt-tuated by eating, drinking, breathing, slot ping, exercising and the like every act of which rests on faith. Take the common act of quenching our thirst. Whence came the water issuing from the earth? From the clouds, through air tainted with poison, over rocks on which the venomous reptile had sunned himself through poisonous germs and fetid remains In the soil, through vaults and caverns where disease breeds and death reigns through fields of verdure and fissures in the rock, at last leaping with joy through the crust of earth into the sunshine and air. Did we stop with microscope or spectro scope to look for an invisible messenger ol death? We slaked our thirst by faith in God and the uniformity of His law. "When a ray of light enters the eye the atoms of the invisible ether strike our retina with almost infinite velocity as they vibrate back and forth in their infinltessimal paths. The red wave makes 450 trillion vibrations a second between the molecules of our retina, setting them going at the same in conceivable speed, while the violet wave makes double that almost infinite number ot vibrations every second. Yet we do not hesitate to look at the rose or the violet lest our eye be shattered by this un paralleled bombardment. So we find faith in every step in the processes of living. II we must reason before we trust we shall die before we reach our conclusion. "It is equally true with the relations of life. While the act of living is faith in the superhuman, the relations of life show faith in the human. Suppose you should lose faith In your mother; what further ambi tion would you have in life? When faith in your mother dies with it dies faith in hu manity. If her love is not unselfish then all love is selfish. If she does not reign on the throne of your faith there are no thrones In the world worth stUving for. Let the husband lose faith in the wife, the wife in the husband, the brother and sister in each other; let suspicion and fear of infidelity creep into the inner circle of the home and the family will disappear as an institution among men. Oh, pure and holy was the faith that was born with your birth, that was developed in the nursery, that grew brighter by the fireside and the evening lamp, that kindled into hope and love, and that you would not suffer to be extinguished for a crown and a throne. "What is the bond that holds the com munity together? It is faith of man in man. True, we bar our doors at night, and why? Because some men are unworthy to be trusted. But these are the exception, not the rule. Suppose all were untrustworthy. Then must society disintegrate, and every individual stand alone for himself. But the majority of men have faith in the ma jority of their fellows. That is why men do not go armed, day and night, to defend themselves from deadly assault. ,And if more men had confidence in more of their fellows the bolts in our doors would be come needless devices. Men may, with impunity, open the doors and windows of their houses as widely as they open their hearts to their fellows. They may. with safety, expose their treasure as publicly as they show 'their faith in men. They may and will in the new civilization -throw away the key of their unlocked safety vaults when they thow away the key to their wide-open hearts. Strikes will disappear as faith appears. The restless ness of the unemployed will vanish when the employed show their faith in them. The anarchy of the hungry will disappear before the oncoming faith of the fed in the unfed. Society will become indissoluble when the faith of men in men becomes unusual and permanent. "The philosophies of life rest on faith. History is the basis of science, and both history and science are the foundation of philosophy. But history rests on faith. Who knows the past at first hand? Does the historian himself so know it? The historian recites facts to you, but who re cited them to him? And who recited them to his teacher and to his teacher's teacher back through the long line of men to the one who touched the original fact? For every fact in history that you accept you exercise faith not only in your historian, but in his faith in his historian back to the beginning. That is, you unequivocally declare your faith in faith. History deals directly with the fact; science deals with the manner of the fact, and must. tl.-?re-fore, doubly rest on faith that is, faiUi in history and faith in the uniformity anc? continuity of nature by which the manner of the fact becomes certain and permanent. It rests on induction, and induction in faith. Philosophy deals with the reason of the fact and the reason of the method ol the fact and is, therefore, trebly dependent on faith, for given the fact and its method philosophy stands dumb In the presence of the question. 'Why are the fact and its method what they are? "So, In the end, all knowledge rests on faith. It cannot, therefore, be an objec tion to the religion of Christ that it rests on the same foundation. On the contrary, it would be an Insuperable objection against any religion that would exclude this universal instinct of the soul." WABASH COLLEGE. Baccalnareate Sermon Preached by President W. P. Kane. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., June 15. This morning at the assembly hall of Wa bash College the annual baccalaureate sermon was delivered by President W. P. Kane. He had for his subject, "Four Se crets of Power in a Great Life," the text being, "Be ye followers of me even as I am also of Christ." I Cor. xl, 1. He said In part; "Few men In history have Impressed the world more largely or more lastingly than the apostle Paul. Rarely has a man left behind him so clear a revelation ofythe in ner fountains and sources of his power. I want to discuss with you four secrets of power in this great life. "The first, 1 think, was the power of a great vision; his conception of life, his ideals of what he wanted to be and what he believed he might be. No man's life is larger than his vision of possible at tainment. No matter what possibilities are bound up within him, they are circum scribed by his ideals. What was the dif ference between Jacob and Esau of old? In many respects Jacob was a less attrac tive man than his brother and in rending the narrative perhaps you have wondered why Jacob was chosen for a great destiny and Esau thrust aside as a profane person. Jacob's superiority was in his power of vision. With all his early faults he har bored visions of immense range and mag nitude, while Esau looked only at the past ing hour and the present nerd. "The second element of power in Paul's life was the power of a great purpose. He not only saw the range and possibilities of human living, but set himself purposely and unflinchingly toward their realization. Two things, particularly, characterize Paul's purpose In life and combine to make it a great purpose. It was definite and single. There were many things he might have done for he was a man of versatile talent. His motto was: 'This one thing 1 do. Men who are everything by fits and starts are. in the long run and in the wind-up nothing. It is not diffused elec tricity, but the thunderbolt that Is terrible. We cannot afford to sneer at the man of one idea. He represents the conquering force of the world to-day. Men are com ing more and more to devot themselves to a single pursuit and to a single phase of that pursuit. Paul would never have wrought the work he did but for his in flexible adhesion to his motto. "But Paul's purpose was more than defi nite; it was adequate as well. It was a purpose commensurate with the possibil ities and yearnings of his ureat nature. "Singleness of purpose may be a power to degrade as well as to uplift. There are criminals who give themselves as untir ingly to their pursuit as any honorable business man does to his calling. One of the most pathetic things In life is to watch the effect of an unworthy aim when it has gained its mastery and begin stealth ily but relentlessly to sap the affectlonal life, to deaden the sympathies, to narrow the range of Interest until the eye becomes cold and the heart stolid and the mind alert only in one direction, and the life almost isolated and unresponsive.

June 13.-The pres ence of 700 armed men sent by Governor Kimball to restore order had little influence except in the central part of this city, to day, where the soldiers formed an invinci ble guard, and this afternoon rioting broke out anew in the suburbs and spread to the neighboring city of Central Falls. The resumption of the electric service, which had been abandoned since Thursday, was the signal for demonstrations at. the points where neither soldiers nor police were stationed, and the character of the attacks grew worse until the traction com pany was forced to abandon the car serv ice. The disorders extended over so great an area that the troops available were unable to handle the situation, and it was said that before the usual car traffic can be resumed it will be necessary to place the city of Central Falls and parts of Cumber land, Lincoln and North Providence under military control. .To do this an increase in the number of troops will be necessary. It was demonstrated that the cars could not be operated In safety under present condi tions. The tracks were obstructed and cars were pelted with stones by the mob not only in the suburbs of this city, but in Central Falls. Missiles struck many of the employes, some of whom were injured, and rolling stock was dmaged. About 3,000 people gathered around one car In Central Falls, and their attitude was so threatening that a machine Jfcjn was loaded and two companies of marines wcie" ordered to charge the crowds. The car proceeded, but the line was later aban doned. The marines then marched through the city, and at another point the machine gun was made ready for action when it became apparent that an outburst was imminent. Mayor Fales, of Central Falls, not having requested military pro tection from the Governor, asked that the troops be withdrawn, and this was done after two hours of service. At a conference to-day between Governor Kimball, Mayor Fales and Brigadier Gen eral Tanner it was decided that the militia would not be sent to Central Falls until their services were requested. The militia unintentionally invaded Central Falls to quell a disturbance, and the conference was for the purpose of preventing a repeti tion. Commercial Telegraphers Union. CHICAGO, June 15.

Soft foul Men Will Give AH the Aid that Is Needed. WILKESBARRE. Pa.. June 13. Patrick Gilday, President of the central Pennsyl vania bituminous district of the United Mine Workers of America, who came here to consult President Mitchell on a matter local to his dlstrct. In a talk with a cor lespondent of the Associated Press to-day, gave an insight as to what the soft coal miners in his territory arc doing to help their brother workmen in the anthracite field. Mr. Gilday said there are 42.000 soft coal miners in his district, and every one of them is taking a deep Interest In the struggle now on in this region. On the see ond day of the strike Mr. Gilday sent out instructions to every check welghman and lit committeeman at the mines in his dis trict to prevent the shipment of soft coal into anthracite territory and thus far. he said, very little coal from his district has taken the place of anthracite. "There have been only four attempts by unionized mines to send soft coal to the anthracite markets." he said. "One order was intended for Mount Carmel. Pa., two for Philadelphia and one for New York. As soon as our men at the mines learned the Intended destination of the coal we requested the mine owner not to send it j.nd they complied with the request. Wi are not intrfc rins; with the normal ship ment of soft o?t I." President Gilday said he had no personal knowledge that the other bituminous presi dents were doing the same as himself, but he felt ure they were. There is some goft coal coming Into the anthracite market from central Pennsylvania, West Virginia and Virginia, but it is mostly of nonunion production. When asked regarding tne feeling In his territory as to a general strike to help the hard-coal miners Mr. Glld.iy said: "Our members will do whatever Presi dent Mitchell says. They can have our financial support, and if Mr. Mitchell tees fit to ask our men to lay down their picks they will do it promptly. I do not be lieve, however, there will be a general strike of the soft-coal miners, because the anthracite men are going to win without it." Asked as to how the miners expected 'O win. in view of the fact that they naV practically reached the limit of their re- sources in tnis region in pressing tne op erators, and the latter still stand out firm ly, he replied: 'Ry the slow destruction of mine property. By that I mean that if they do not give the men the hours and pay they ask for they will not consent to go into the mines and preserve the operations. The collieries will fill If the trlke Is not soon ended, and the min a will begin to squeeze r cave In. All the tlmbermen are out. and the timber which holds up the roofs of mines will soon begin to give way. These squeezes will COt thousands cf dol lars to repair and probably be the caus of the abandonment of many costly opera tions. When the Investors' pockets kxrta t
