ENGLAND'S WAVE OF ALARM
In Any Other Country These Condi
tions Would lie Prelude to
a Revolution.
(Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Co.)
LONDON, Oct. 12. (Now York World Ca
blegram Special Telegram.) In any coun
try whoso constitutional traditions were
loss deeply rooted than Britain's, what Is
now transpiring hero woutd be a certain
proludo to revolution. Kvldcnccs aro ac
cumulating on nil hands of a great wave
of, public alarm at the Incalculable danger
to the empire arising from tho paralysis
which has ovortalccn England in its at
tempt to subdue or exterminate tho Boers.
There Is flcrco public indignation at the
Inconceivable levity nnd Ignorance with
which it has boen conducted.
Tho opening of tho third year's campaign
Is signalized by tho publication In both
tho lingo and the nntl-war press of retro
spects of the government's war, tho record
fully Justifying tho gloomiest apprehen
sions.
It was estimated that the cost of the
war would be $00,000,000, with a field torco
of 47,000 men, which Parliament was as
sured would complete tho conquest of the
republics In three months. Today, when
prospect of conquest was never less cer
tain, It has cost J700.000.000. besides 18.000
lives, tho aggregate of casualties being
75,000.
Since Lord Roberts declared tho war
over On the evo of tho general election
last September it has cost $350,000,000 in
money, 8.000 Uvea and 27,000 other cas
ualties. Paul Krugcr's historic pledge to
the world that tho price England would
have to pay would stagger humanity Is
now on everybody's lips.
It wns Jeered at when originally pub
lished in theso dispatches, but at the
height of this present supremo crisis tho
public In dismayed by the Intemperate, un
disciplined outburst against critics by
General Duller, demonstrating tho demor
alization which has been produced in the
army by the stress of this Ignominious
campaign. Meantime tho ministers are
doing nothing or worse.
War Secretary Broderick, broken by tho
comblnc1 weight of domestic bereavement
and tho opprrsslvo responsibilities ot a
post ho was nover fitted to occupy, feebly
attcmpta to storm the swelling torrents
of public obloquy by throwing the rcspon.
sibtllty on tho generals. Tho proclaiming
of martial law throughout Capo Colony is
tho crowning blunder of the British policy.
It Is known here that tho capo premier
warned both tho imperial government and
Lord Kitchener that it lnovltably would
mean tho ultimate loss of South Africa,
but tho government gave Lord Kitchener
absoluto discretion, and he, rendered reck
less by tho hopeless entanglements of tho
desperate situation, refused to listen to
reason and insisted on having his will
obeyed. An iron curtain of rigorous mili
tary censorship has now been drawn ovor
the South African conflagration.

CASTELLANE'S BOAR HUNT
Society Women Take Part In a Morel
Affair In Honor of nnaalan
Grand Dnke.
. -. - i ' " ; r ' S- Mfi
(Copyright, 1901, by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS, Oct. 12. (Now York World Cable
gramSpecial Telegram.) The boar hunt
given on Thursday by Count Hon I de Castel
lane In honor of the Russian Grand Duke
Boris was a splendid nnd novel affair,' fully
worthy ot tho royal visitor for whose en
tertainment It was planned. The hunt took
place at the chatteau Dumarals, on an
estate tecently acquired by tho Castcllanes,
and was tho final of a series of meets given
in honor of the Russian guest.
A toterlo of colebrated society women
took part In tho hunt. The newest countess
(Stanislas) De Castellane, who wns Mlsa
Terry, was thrown from hor horso whllo
topping a high hedge. Though Jarred, she
was not hurt and, remounting her hunter,
sho continued In the chnso, notwithstand
ing that sho was hopelessly outdistanced.
Among tho other women who took an
active part in tho sport wero Mrs. Arthur
Paget, Mrs. Prank Gardiner and Ducheis
de la Rochefoucauld, formerly Mlsa Mitch
ell. The countess Anna followed the sports
men In an automobile and Miss Muriel Wil
son was alto satisfied to view the fun from
a motor carriage.
Count Bonl acted as master ot the
hounds. His pack early rounded up an
old solitary boar, which showed a fierce
spirit and provided an exciting chaso over
some most difficult ground. Count Bonl,
Grand Duke Boris, Count Jean de Castel
lane, Marquis do Dion, Count Rodellec and
Henry Rldgeway swam their horses across
a deep and rapid river at the Imminent risk
of tholr lives. All of the others preferred
to go around by way of a brldgo. Mrs.
I'DKot, Mrs. Gardiner nnd the duchess De la
Kouchefoucauld wero In at the denth, which
was a fine sight from the point of view nf
the sportsman, for tho grand old boar made
a magnificent light nnd had ripped six dogs
before the huntora could got at him with
their knives.
The grand duke and Count Bonl dis
mounted hurriedly to nave the pack, which
the boar wan destroying', and succeeded in
knifing the fierce old fellow after a display
of pluck and dexterity highly entertaining
to those who watched them. A hunting
luncheon was served In the forest, at which
a distinguished company of forty guests
sat down, and, in addition, sixty mounted
keepers in livery and a superb band of
hunting horn players. The band had played
throughout the hunt, rendering sovcral
airs descriptive of the various stages of
the chase. Massenet contributed two pieces
which he had written especially for the
event, one entitled "Tho First Sight
Whoop" and the other "The Death Malloo."
Tho music has been copyrighted for the
sole use ot the houso of Do Castellane.

Tho Norwich Union Insurance company,

other companies quickly followed, for It Is
known how close tho Rothschild famllv
stands to royalty and how exhaustive are
its sources of information.
Tho World's London bureau has had In

(Copyright, 1901. by Press Publishing Co.)
PARIS, Oct. 12. (New York World Cable

ralmer, fiancee of Senator C'hauncey M.
Depev, lives with h?vuother In a fashion-
nblo apartment hr.flpjn the Hue Galilee,
Just opposite Coufj Tile Sers, Mr. Dcpow's
niece. Tho Palr.& ' occupy the third story,
which is nrtls'-'s'y and costly furnished,
tnougn not ; ,rcai luxury.
When thri-'1 respondent of tho World
wns ushcrf-' ' .to Miss Palmer's study tho
first tblr - ilch greeted his eye was a
large p'" ,raph of Senator Depow upon
a dalnt ,' .lo desk near tho window. Stand
ing p , it Dcpow's portrait wns a tiny
one ot '4',ls fiancee. Mlia ralmer hud left
open a novel sho was In the. course of read
ing, "Tristram of Blent," by Anthony Hope.
When abo entered nnd noticed her caller's
eyo on the book sho Jokingly exclaimed: "I
hope you won't reveal that 1 am reading
such frivolous stuff."
Tho senator's brldo Is n very pretty
blonde, rather tall ond'lltho, with a charm
ing touch of timidity, which somotlmes
makes her seem embarrassed. Sho speaks
English with a slight French accent dls-
ccrnable. Sho was educated hero entirely.
Miss Palmer wns drc6scd tastefully, not
like a French girl, but with a rather rigid
Anglo-Saxon trlmnefs. Her hnlr, too, wna
colled Into a tight treas at the back of her
head. Miss Palmer told the Interviewer
that sho would gladly tell the exact date of
tho wedding, but it was undecided. Sho
expects tho senator hero In December and
their niarrlogo will bo celebrated heartily
on this side, not in America, bb reported.
Tho senator nnd his brldo probably will
not return to America beforo tho first of
spring. As Miss Palmer left America when
she wns a little girl, sho remembers noth
ing whatever about it and thinks It might
bo a good plan to take a trip through tho
south and west of tho United States.
"I'lcaso deny," sho said, "tho report that
the senator and I mot by chanco In tho
waiting room of tho law oirtccs of Ooudcrt
Bros, here last year. I havo known tho
senator six or seven years. Wo met and
grow acquainted In tho usual social way."
Mlsa Palmor looks about 2j years old.
though oven closo friends disagree, as to
her age, some saying sho Is quite 32. Sen
ator and Mrs. Depow will settle la Wash
ington. Miss Palmer admits that sho looks
eagerly forward to Interesting social and
Intellectual Intercourse thero from reports
sho haa rccelvod. Sho believes that Wash
ington Is much pleasnnter than Now York.
In which city alio wna born. "Mother will
not leave her Paris home, so naturully wo
shall ourselves spend a great deal of our
tlrao nn this side," said the bride-elect.
Comparatively few members of tho Ameri
can colony know Miss Palmer, who is most
fastidious In tho choice ot her friends, and
prefers tho Intellectual act to tho wealthv.
Tho Palmers themselves ore not wealthy.
Just nicely able to lead a refined life. Miss
Palmer'a reputation Is that of a learned
woman given more to music nnd the ntudv
of social, problems than to frivolous so
clety.In conversation jiho neVbr .'hesi
tates to.'ahoV 6rcQ!6ftnri Veroplnlons
are very set. In calm argument she H ever
ready. Her closest acqUaln'tnnccd sar ahe
shows a decided socialistic Inclination and
la Interested In many charltablo pursuits,
but in no regular organized charities,
wherein sho finds too much nonsenso and
red tape.
During the exposition Mr. Dcpew escorted
Miss and Mrs. Palmer almost dallv throush
the grounds, always taking luncheon In one
ot tho many exotic restaurants. It Is be
lieved that a definite understanding was
reached during that porlod, though once
when tho wlfo ot Ambassador Porter gen
erally chaffed, Senator Depow upon his un
flagging nttentlon shown to Miss Palmer,
hinting nt posslblo marriage, tho senator
answered with undisguised sadness. "I am
too old, and feol othcrwlso unworthy. Sho
Is tho most admirable young woman I over
met, and It would bo almost Irreverent on
my part to proposo marriage to her."
The engagement la tho solo tonic here.
where Mr. Dopew Is a great favorite.

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 12,-(Spcclal Tolo
gram.) Through superior weight tha
Gopher glanta from the University of Min
ncfota administered declalvo defeat to tho
Nebraska 'varsity, foot ball team on North
rop Hold this afternoon 19 to 0. Out
weighed twenty-ilvo pounds to a man, tho
plucky Cornhuskers strovo desperately to
make, headway against their towering op
ponents, or to check their furious on
slaughts. For a tlmo they succeeded, but
in tho end weight told, nnd as ono man
after another of tho Ncbrnskans was car
ried helpless from tho field tho gradual
weakening of their gamo showed that their
strength was ebbing away.
Such a crowd nn nover beforo graced a
foot ball field in Mlnncsotn thronged around
tho university gridiron. Tho visitors came
hundreds stronger than hnd been expected
and thoro wns neither seating cnpaclty nt
tho grounds for tho crowd nor adequate
street car transportation fncllltles. At
noon the gates wero opened and by tho
tlmo tho game wns called, at 2:15 o'clock.
12,000 noisy partisans lined tho field. From
thou on for two hours tho sceno wns ono
of continuous and frantic uproar.
Tho Nobraskaus loft considerable money
In Minneapolis, though not sufficient to
cancel tho enormous losses, of tho Mlnne
Botnns through their reckless betting at tho
Thnnksglvlng gamo In Lincoln last year.
All monoy that Nebraska would not score
was snappod up rapidly nnd thoro was ron-
aiuerablo oven betting that tbo Gophers
would scoro twclvo points moro than their
opponents On tho geuornl outcome tho
odds stood 4 to 1. Not a slnglo bet nas
won by a Nobraskan, so far an known.
Hnrly Play Misleading.
Three touchdowns, two goals nnd a safety
gave Minnesota Its score. Of this twclvo
points wero secured In tho second half. Tho
entire early portion of tho game was mis
leading as, to tho final result. It was not
till two minutes before the end of tho first
hnlt that Minnesota mado Its first touch
down, and at that tlmo tho Gophers' sup
porters wero feeling downcnBt. Thoy had
confidently expected a touchdown within
flvo minutes, and when they saw Nebraska
force their favorites to kick flvo times In
tho first half hour of piny they woro ap
palled for tho time. Looking almost dlmln-
utlvo besldo their stalwart antagonists, the
fast-playing Nubrnskans worked wonders
during that first half.
Minnesota won tho kick-off and Nobraskn
kicked back. Tho Cornhunkors then nulckly
took thn ball from tho Gophers on tho
downs nnd rushed It relentlessly down tho
held by straight foot ball plays through tho
lino and past the ends. Tho play of tho
NobrnsknnH was marvelnusly fust and for
n time effective, though tho gains wero
nover extensive
During tho florco charging nttack Coach
Phil King of tho Wisconsin Bndgers nnd
A. O. Knlnpn of Iowa wore on their knees
at tho Hldcllncs, straining to got every
fenturo of tho strangcra' play. But the
paco was too hot to last. Tho Mtnncsotans
recovered from their first unwlcldlness
nnd scattered tha light Interference of the
Cornhuskers like chaff, taking tho ball on
downa and kicking it away back to a safe
placo In Nebraska torrttory. From that
tlmo tho game wa played largely tn the
visitor' half of the field, as not till the
last few minutes of tho gamo could tho
Cornhuskers get tho ball again near their
opponenta' goal. Then tho whistle blew to
end tho gamo, when they were still twenty
yards away.
Weight null Klcklnic Ilxcel.
In overy part of tho gnino tho great
weight of the Mlnncsotans told. Aside
from that, thoy excelled tho Nobraskana
In only ono feature, kicking, nnd In that
a fatal weakness wns exposed tn tho vis
itors' team. For two years Nebraska has
not had a good kicker and the Cornhuskers
learned onco again today tho bitter lesson
of how nacessary to success Is such an
adjunct to a team. Tlmo and again ktcka
wero exchanged, and always for a big loss.
Whenever tho Gophers were compelled to
punt, Knowlton sent the pigskin away down
thn field. Nebraska would thon run the
ball till held, and on the return kick was
unable at any time to cover more than
twenty-flvo yards.
This worked to tho visitors' great dis
advantage, for after being held a few times
for downs and losing tho ball, Minnesota
began tho practlco of kicking, and that
kept thn oval always toward Nebraska's
end nf tho field. Nebraska could not have
won, however, oven with an O'Dea behind
tho line, but a largo portion of tho nine
teen points could havo been prevented.
Rodgorn, tho much-vaunted Indian end,
wnH by no means a star for Minnesota,
Ho mlsBcd four different trials at a drop
kick for goal, all at short rango. At run
ning tho ball ho was good, but was not
thn boasted tower of strongth on the de
fense, Nebraska's longest end run was
mado around him. Chief credlf for ad
vancing the ball Is dun to Knowlton, La
Fans, Kvans, Fee and Murphy of the Go
phers, On the defonso, Flynn and Auns
of tho line nnd Knowlton ot tho backs were
supreme.
Nebraska's Captain Westover and Quar
terback Drain wore thn stars. The former
won tho admiration of tho crowd by tho
way In which ho handled Fco, whom tha
Mlnnesotana claim Is tho greatest tacklo
In the west. Though badly hurt ones, be
ployed tho entire game. Drain waa a little
wonder on defense. Ills tackling stood out
beyond that ot any roan on his team. It
was always suro, and the demolition of the
Nebraska lino by tho tackleback play of the
Gophers left him many times tho only ob
stacle hetween tho goal and tho huge Min
nesota bucks. Drain also played his po
sition at quarter without a fumble.
