Charitable Jba ihe people of Helena are, they can (hardly forgive Hannlvan for his flagrant touff of Vlgnouxs fly In the sixth Inning tot today's game. Otherwise Portland 'would have undoubtedly been shut out. The trouble all happened "with two men out, two on bases and the score S to 0 In favor of the locals. Then Hannlvan dropped an easy fly and allowed two run ners to score. Vlgneux scored on a hit by Muller, tying the score before thB side mas out. For three Innings neither side scored. but in the tenth, Peeples' error, followed by a clean hit and a wild pitch, gave the visitors two runs and the game. Four hits off Wlggs punctuated through out the 10 innings, and yet to lose is cer tainly a hard-luck story for the Sena tors. Eliminating the unpardonable error by Hannlvan, Portland did not have a look in for the game. Wlggs was a Gibraltar against the visitors, but despite his mas terly work in the box and the strenuous efforts of the other members of theeam, the gods were with the Webfooters, and It seemed to be ordained that the score should bo 5 to 3, after 10 Innings of hard and careful play on either side. When Portland went to bat In the first half of the tenth inning, the score stood S to 3. Van Buren flew out to Schmeer. Peeples fumbled Anderson's grounder and Andy then stole second. Weed beat out a slow infield hit, while Vlgneux sacrificed, scoring Anderson, and a wild pitch brought In Weed, placing Portland two to the good. In the Helena half, Holly and Sullivan singled, but the latter was doubled at second on Partridge's hit, and Slagle struck out. Helena scored twice, on a base on balls, a sacrifice, an error and two singles in the first, and once In the third on a dou ble and two singles. Sammy Vlgneux was presented a beautiful bouquet the first time he came to the bat, the gift of his Helena lady admirers. Sammy bowed acknowledgements, but flew out to Han nlvan. The score: HELENA.

Carlisle's Address Before the American Bar Association The Porto Rico Incident. SARATOGA, N. T., Aug. 2S. John G. Carlisle, of New York, ex-Secretary of the Treasury, delivered the annual- ad dress before the American Bar Associa tion today. He spoke on the power of the United States to acquire and govern territory, which, he said, was a question growing out of the acquisition of. ter ritory from Spain. Unless the Constitu tion is changed, which Is hardly prob able, said Mr. Carlisle, the law Is the same whether the territory Is located In the Eastern or Western Hemisphere. He next touched upon the limitation upon the power to acquire territory under the Constitution of the United States and referred to the power to declare war and to make treaties. Mr. Carlisle said, in addition, that the right of discovery Is acknowledged by International authorities. The power to acquire territory is derived from the same power as the right to declare war. Not only Is the power to acquire admitted, but also the right to govern Is admitted. "I do hot believe that the power to take people and to prescribe present rights and privileges," he said, "goes to the extent of depriving them of a safe conduct of affairs which concern them selves. The territory Is not property In the sense of depriving Its Inhabitants of the power of government. The govern ment In a territory, when ratified by a treaty, becomes de facto, although ad ministered by the military. The func tions of the latter, after the recognition of a territory as a part of the new owner, are merely to preserve' order, to protect the interests of the people, to see that they shall enjoy the liberties of subjects of the governing country. Wb.cn the treaty with Spain was ratified, Porto Rico and the Philippines became domestic. Those new possessions could not become domestic for one purpose and foreign for another. "It was held, however, that Porto Rico and. the Philippines did not become do mestic under the meaning of the revenue law's. The Constitution was supposed to be fiTTorce In Porto Rico when -it became a part of the United States. The trade with Porto Rico Is domestic trade and the authorities of New York have ruled that the regulations governing vessels trading In foreign trade did not apply to those trading with Porto Rico. "The Constitution does not expand or contract, but extends wherever our boun daries extend. As the territory of a country expands, so Is the Jurisdiction enlarged, or Is decreased If territory diminishes. The nature and source of Jurisdiction Is the same." FRATERNAL CONGRESS. Joseph A. LangflttEIccted President Other New Officers. DENVER, Aug. 25. Joseph A. Langfltt, of Pittsburg, Pa., past supreme regent of the Royal Arcanum, was today elected president of tho National Fraternal Con gress. Other officers were elected as fol lows: Secretary-treasurer .

The provision known as the "force bill," which required all of the orders to adopt the minimum scale. Is repealed, however, by a resolu tion previously adopted. Too Great a Sacrifice. Chicago Tribune. The commander of the troops called for volunteers. ' "I -want some one to lead a forlorn .. . .... . , . . hope." ne saio. "zonaer Daj.iery must ue taken at all hazards.- It will be a difficult and dangerous job, and few who engage In It will come back alive. Who will lead the men?" The officers looked at one another, but made no response. "What!"' exclaimed the commander. "Does a brave soldier fear to risk his life In the service of his country?" "It Isn't the fear of death that restrains us. General." replied one of the officers, holding his head proudly erect. "It's the fear that we may be unfortunate enough to live through It, be proclaimed heroes and then be abused, and ridiculed, and carica tured by the newspapers all the- rest of our days. We couldn't stand that. Gen eral!" Whereupon the commander ordered a general advance as being the safest thing for all oencerned. Telephone to Snperscde the Doer. London Mail. The dogs of St. Bernard, so long re nowned for their wonderful life-saving ser vice, are at least to take a second place to modern Invention. All the refuges on the mountain side, jays a message from Turin, are shortly to be connected by telephone with the principal hospital. The number of travelers, tourists, work men seeking employment, pilgrims who cross the St. Bernard at all times of the year, make this measure highly necessary. But it seems hard on the dogs' pride. GREATEST BOOK SALE HERE America the Best Customer for Eng land's Own Publication. New York Mall and Express. An Indication of the intellectual eager ernes3 of America Is found In a statement In one of the volumes of a new ediltlon of a popular cyclopedia of English pub lication. Fifty thousand sets of the pre ceding edition. It says, were sold In Great Britain Itself and 400.CCO in America. Per haps in that circumstance Is the explana tion of the fact, to which one reviewer, demurs, that In the third volume Jeffer son Davis gets two pages and Lord Duf ferin, despite his fame as a diplomat, only half a page. Biography, by the way, constitutes the most Interesting feature of the volume. The present edition differs from its pre decessors In that It opens Its pages to ac counts of the lives of men not yet dead. Thus It Is said of Mark Twain that "like Cervantes at times he reveals a depth of melancholy beneath his playful humor and, like Moliere always, he has a deep scorn and a burning detestation of all sorts of sham and pretense, a scorching hatred of humbug and hypocrisy." "John Oliver Hobbes'' writes the article on George Eliot, whom she credits with the posses sion of an irony and satire applicable "to little everyday affairs" as distinguished from men's humor, which is "for the uncommon situations, not the tea table." The scheme of the encyclopedia has be come more popular. This volume contains an article on "Cartoons," with some 11 lustrations from Du Maurler; an article by Mr. Walter Camp on "Baseball." an account of the contemporary stage, in which it Is maintained that with "The Second Mrs. Tanqueray" the English-acted drama ceased to be a mere insular prod uct. and will rank with the literature of Europe." and even a discussion as to the psychology of poster advertisements. There are numerous Indications In thp work that this is an age of progress. Such ia its first , article on "Chicago" which records a growth of population since the previous edition, from 500.000 to 1.698,o75. Another is the statement that when the Victorian era began the Biblical chronology was the accepted one, and the distinct ken of history reached no further back than the ancient Greeks, who got a fictitious glory as the originators of nearly every thing. Now. through the researches of two generations of archaeologists, the buried empires have been uncovered, the hushed civilizations have become vocal. and the Greek Is disclosed as the facile borrower, adapter and Inheritor, rather than the original creator of arts and In stltutlons. In the same period political economy has been revolutionized, and. as Professor Hewins remarks, "the economic man'' of Adam Smith has been dismissed as a monstrosity. A Hint to the Attorney-General. Sioux City Journal. In a heart-.to-heart talk to the farmers at Spokane, Jim Hill declared' that he hasn't many years to live, and If he is to accomplish all he has set out to do, things must move rapidly. This Is Inter preted as a gentle hint to Attorney-General Knox to clear the track. Reward for "Weak Effort. Boston Herald. The doctor of laws degree which the University of Chicago is to give President Roosevelt when he visits there In October may be called forth as a testimonial to his efforts to doctor our weak and failing antitrust laws during this Summer.
