'Voyage of Sunbeam." rIhe big man aboard the C. & A. steamship Micnvera this voyage is no: a big man physically. Lord Brassey is small in stature. His fame is solidly and lastingly established. He is known all ov?r the world for a final authority on naval matters, for one of the fore most sailors of any time, for a man of the most charming personalis and for one of active, broad, powerful and in cisive mentality. There is nothing haughty about this man of reputation and brains and title and high degree. When one approaches him for a chat he finds seats and rea "ily enters into conversation. There Is issued regular, y from press a book "Brassey c. Annual." This vol ume is locked for eagerly each year by the lu iicV-- of all Governments. It al ways tells all about navies. If any one at any time wants to know any thing about any navy, resort is at once had to this comprehensive and accur ate work. Lord Brassey has been com piling the annual so long that the main facts and figures of the work are "at the tips of his fingers." He amazes one with his remarkable grasp of the de tails of information on navies. Lohl Bras?ey, returning r.L Ui;.v from England, spent some time in the United States. He wanted to see how the American ships looked after the campaign against Spain. He speaks in glowing terms of the construction, of the ships of the United States, on their fitness for battle and on the bravery and skill of the men who handled and fought them. "All this," says Lord Brassey, earnestly, "was to be expected on the part of our cousins and is taken as matter of course. We expected them to battle gallantly. We knew they had the better ships and men and the wish that they would win was father to the sympathetic hope. The public men of the United States are elated over the fact that the war brought their polit ical factions closer together as a na tion and wiped out sectional lines. It did much more than that and should be given a broader view. It has welded together forever the bond of friend ship between - the United States and Great Britain and has settled once and for all that the English speaking peo ples are In a brotherhood whether or no treaties or documents or letters or protocols are signed to that effect in fact. So complete and thorough and absolute is the understanding between thja heads of the nations and the two peoples that no agreement of arbitra tion between the United States and Great Britain as a matter of record is necessary at all." In the opinion of Lord Brassey the feature of the fighting was the fear fully effective work of the cruisers both in Manila bay and off Santiago. "Both .the cruisers and the battleships did more than the expe. ,s thought they were capable of and they have been studied pretty carefully. It is marvel ous that through all the work of the navy not an American ship was found unprepared when called upon. That nothing should have gone amiss with any of the ships in the squadron that waited so long for Cervera is little short of a miracle. The landsman can not grasp the computation of what is involved in having a fighting ship ready for business on the notice of an instant for weeks. There are hun dreds upon hundreds of chances for ac cidents that might keep a ship out of action or delay her with an enemy in sight, but all of these myriad of chances seem to have been avoided somehow, and it must frankly be ad mitted that brains all along the line is what did it." Lord Brassey grows enthusiastic in commenting upon the performance of the Oregon. He says that what Cant Clarke did with this ship is unparal leled both for man and craft. .Nothing like it was ever before attempted and few naval men could be induced to be lieve in advance that anything of the sort could be accomplished. " It can readily be noticed in conversation that Lord Brassey is deeply impressed with the Oregon. The distinguished Brit isher speaks of the nicety with which calculations had been made in placing guns on the American ships. He has only highest praise for this factor. He is especially pleased with the work of the small guns, of which he has been a persistent advocate. Lord Brassy- speans with caution of torpedoes. He favors speed in vessels of all classes and is decided that future naval con struction in both the United States and his own country will be partial to fast cruisers and ships of the line and to Ihe Hying and wicked small craft. The auxiliary section of the Ameri can navy was in every way a surprise to Lord Brassey. He had thought, he ?aid. that a considerable number of commercial and pleasure craft could to used in warfare, but the number made available and their remarkably elfective service he granted as surpris ing. Ixjrd Brassey is a great admirer of" Lieut. Wainwright and the Glou cester. For four years now Lord Brassey has been Governor of Victoria. He is now on his way to his home and duties in that colony. He is an advocate of progress in every direction, is for im perial, federation and for subsidized cks'and mail lines. Lord Brassey is a famous yachtsman and has sailed around the world sev eral times in his own boat. The firsr Lady Brassey, however, is even better known that His Lordship in connection with the yacht Sunbeam. There have been two Sunbeams. The first is per petuated in Lady Brassey's entertain ing book "The Voyage of the Sun beam." In the story the start is made from England and many strange and out of the wav places are visited. In the second- Sunbeam Lord Brassey sailed to his post as Governor of Vic toria and was given a great reception in Melbourne. At whatever port the Sunbeam touches she is the center of attraction during her stay. She is barken tine, rigged, of .about 900 tons burthen; has steam auxiliary, rakish masts, is low in the water and painted white. The first Sunbeam was dis masted in a typhoon, but the passen gers and crew escaped w'ith their lives. The Sunbeam called here and the Islands receive considerable attention in Lady Brassey's book. MANUSCRIPT HOOK II AS HE EN LOST. Work of a Life, Almost A Ste ward .for a Writing. What is probably the most valuable piece of literary , property in these Islands has been lost. It is a manu script book and has been missing since Jn.--.1 Ju.,t. The work is a technical matise and dictionary of Micronesian languages. Rev. Hiram Bingham has been engaged upon the book many years. He is almost heartbroken over the fact that it cannot be found. The book could not be turned to profit by any finder. If sold the fact would be reported at once and return made to Rev. Mr. Bingham. In the whole world there would not be over half a dozen possible purchasers to be found. The author has always Intended to leave the work as one of the best ac complishments of his life. Scholars everywhere, and especially those inter ested in Polynesia, will mourn with the owner if the property is not recov ered. The police have been searching for the manuscript, but without avail. The situation now is that a reward of $50 will be paid for the return of the prop erty to Chester A. Doyle, who has been on the case, or to Marshal Brown or one of his deputies at the police sta tion. There will be no charges or prosecution. It is the verdict of the officers and others concerned that the property has simply been lost. A Mr. Christian, an English gentle man well known in the literary and scientific world, came here with let ters from many people and societies of note, including the Smithsonian at Washington. This book of Rev. Mr. Bingham's was loaned by the own er to Mr. Christian. It is established, on the word of Mr. Christian, verified by the police, that the book was en trusted to a hackraan for delivery to Professor Alexander for Rev. Mr. Bingham. At the Pacific Club, just be fore his departure from the country, Mr. Christian gave the book to a Jap boy of the house with instructions to send it by cab to Professor Alexander. The package was handed to a hack man. There is no further trace of it. Mr. Dole was given the case and has worked hard and earnestly, but has learned nothing more than here set out. The messenger either lost the package from his vehicle or set it aside for de livery later and forgot it. Mr. Christian, the authorities and Professor Alexander will be greatly relieved and Rev. Mr. Bingham will be delighted if the missing property is looked up and brought in without de lay. Today's Trophy Shoot. The shoot for the Foreign Office tro phy will take place from 1:30 to 5 this afternoon. Twenty-man teams of Companies B, D, F and G will compete. Indications are that the contest will be close and exciting. Capt. Paul Sniiih has been appointed to take charge of the range, but as he may be engaged elsewhere during the afternoon anoth er officer may be detailed. Companies G, F and B are the favorites in the match. ESTATE VALUED AT $10,000.00. John Smith left an estate valued at this amount.. The greater part was saved by buying goods at L. B.

Active Feeling Esterhazy In- tervlewed in London. t PARIS, Sept. 22. The situation here is generally admitted to be grave by both the press and the people. The conflict between civil and military au thorities is becoming acute. The sud den and unexpected action of Gen. Zurlinden, military governor of Paris, in prosecuting Col. l'icnuart on a charge of forgery and using forged documents, assumes a grave aspect on account of circumstances attending this intervention of military authority in the civil court. Now that the Dreyfus question has become a great national matter every proceeding in the affair has a state importance. Zurlinden's ignoring of this obvious fact is very significant. He comes forward as a defender of the army, the prosecutor of its supposed calumniators, and the resolute oppon ent of a revision of the case. From this appeal to the public in the line of the establishment of a dictatorship, there is no wide step. The Radical makes a bitter attack on the general's staff which it charges with aiming at the moral assassination of Picquart through a secret military trial. Henri Rochefort in his paper, the Intranse gant, declares that Picquart wav bribed by a syndicate or by Germany to save Dreyius. LONDON, Sept. 23 The Daily News says that Comte Esterhazy has been sojourning in London in the guise of an Italian count. He speaks . Italian fluently. The Daily News reporter caught him at Charing Cross as he was about to start for Paris, In the course of the interview, Esterhazy said he had passed the detectives detailed to watch him in Paris in his present dis guise and that nobody had recognized him. "But," he continued, "I distrust ed .even this. I told Gen. Pellieux after the suicide of Col. Henri that it would be impossible to stop things and that the movement would be formidable. The generals lost their heads. I wrote to M. Cavaignac a long letter acquaint ing him with the points of the affair. He refused to' see me. My ruin has been determined upon. 1 was thrown overboard and had nothing left but to go away and wait developments.' Comte Esterhazy proceeded to de clare that he had vainly tried to con vince Gen. Pellieux that the Henri document was a forgery, but that Gen. Pellieux had declined to listen to him. "There were," said Count Esterhazy, "but three persons who knew the truth of the matter Sanders, Henri and my self. The first two are dead, and I alone hold the secret." Comte Ester hazy complained bitterly of the treat ment of himself and Mine. Pays, who is in prison in Paris. He declares that the Judge D'Instruction had Mme. Pays brought from the Saint Lazar prison and offered her liberty if she would re veal all she knew about the generals. After a reference to other phases of the affair, Comte Esterhazy said: "I intend to publish a work that will throw light upon the unhealthy Drey fus story. M. Cavaignac made a mis take in persecuting me, but he struck at the same time his relation, Col. Du Paty Du Clam. I may mention that I already declined a pension offered by Gen. Billott." Comte Esterhazy affected a gay non chalance but as he was taking the train he said in a sharp, nervous tone, without pausing for a breath: "I don't know whether I shall make use of the documents in my possession. It will depend upon the march of events." MR. BAYARD'S CONDITION. DEDHAM, Mass., Sept. 20. The ravages of disease are gradually sap ping the life of former Ambassador Bayard, and he continually loses ground, although his wonderful consti tution makes a strong resistance.
