HARWARD COLLEGE LIBRARY NOV 3 1913 CAMBRIDGE REV. DR. DAVIS PASSES AWAY. The funeral of Rev. D. Webster Davis, A. M. D. D., minister, post- orator and author took, place last Tuesday afternoon 2:30 P. M. at the First Baptist Church. Never in the history of the church has there been such a crowd of people, all struggling for admittance to witness the last rites over one of the most prominent and influential colored men the South had ever produced. Even after the church had been filled the streets were still blocked with this solid wall of humanity, while the adjoining yards were crowded with crowds of people who had only the hope of seeing the funeral cortege pass in. It was necessary to invoke the aid of the police to secure an open space to permit the entrance of the corpse and the mourners, although at no time was there any semblance of disorder. MANY VISITORS The ministers of the city and those who had come from other cities were grouped on the main floor of the church auditorium. Many white friends were present. Then some one sang the well-known hymn, "Nearer My God To Thee!" This concluded, the choir sang in tremulous tones "Steal Away." Just then the centre chandeliers were lighted as the electric switch was thrown in. It is well nigh impossible to name the prominent persons present. They were mixed in indiscriminately. The REV. D. WEBSTER DAVIS, D. D. members of the Richmond, Va. City School Board were present led by Dr. J. A. C. Chandler. Rev. Evans Payne, D. D. notified all present to be careful to keep the miscell clear and not to engage in loud talking. REV. DR. BINGA IN CHARGE. Rev. A. Blinga, D. D. conducted the exercises. Rev. Z. D. Lewis, D. D. linel hymn 675. Owing to Rev. Dr. W. T. Johnson's illness he was unable to be present. He has been under the care of a physician for some time. The Scriptures were read by Rev. Dr. Evans Payne. Rev. A. A. Galvin, President of the Virginia Baptist State Convention was present. Rev. Dr. S. A. Moes was also present. Rev. J. B. Simpson of Virginia Union University offered prayer. Junkins' Quartette rendered a selection, entitled "Shall We Meet Beyond the River?" THE FUNERAL EULOGY Rev. Dr. Blinga said that all had not to do honor to one who was entitled to high honor. "If To live in hearts we leave behind is not to do; then Dr. Davia is not dead. He had few equals in this world. He was exemplary as a preacher, instructive and inspiring. As a poet, he evinced a very fertile imagination, as a historian he was reliable and accurate. As an orator he was fluent and felicitous. Dr. Davia belonged to humanity and he furnished happiness to all races. He left to his family a valuable legacy in an unstained record." He called upon Rev. Dr. W. H. Brooks, pastor of the Nineteenth St. Baptist Church of Washington, D. C. to offer prayer. The services were concluded by singing, "Come To Me All You That Labor." The Euterne Quartetto sang, "Jones Is Mine." Benediction was announced by Rev. Dr. E. Watts of Peterburg, Va. THE PALL BEARERS. The pall-bearers were: Active—George St. Julien Steph- am, A. V. Norrell, B. A. Graves, Em- met Burke, Nelson Williams, Jr. George W. Lewis, D. R. Cross, S. W. Robinson. Honorary—Rev. J. A. Hower, Rev. Scott C. Burrell, Armstead Walker, William C. H. Hughes, William Miller, E. J. Cunningham, Henry Harris, Colo- Howlett, Frank Gibson, S. S. Baker, Rev. J. E. Jones, A. M. Rev. W. A. Mitchell, B. D. Hulcs. MR. STEPHENS' MANAGEMENT. The funeral designs were numerous and costly. The vacant chair-from the Second Baptist Church, South Richmond, of which he was pastor was especially noticeable. The music by the First Baptist Church choir was under the management of Mrs. Rosa K. Jones, leader, Mrs. Nannie Cobb, organist. The arrangements for the funeral were made by Mr. George St. Julien Stephens, who had been the fallen leader's friend of a lifetime. The casket was covered with fine black cloth and fitted with dark oxidized handles. The rolling vehicle was used to convey the body from the front door of the church to the front of the rostrum. Interment was in Greenwood. Funeral Director W. I. Johnson officiated. The organizations participating were: Social Lodge, No. 6, Ancient, Free and Accepted Masons; Mount Olivet Council; Templars; Rescue Council, Independent Order of St Luke; Planet Lodge, No. 23, Knights of Pythian; the Dunbar Literary and Historical Society; the Baptist Ministers' Conference; the Board of Directors of the Young Men's Christian Association and the Doxon Board of the Second Baptist Church, South Richmond. ILLNESS OF YEARS. Rev. Dr. Travis was in his prime. He had been sick for several years. He decided to go to Hot Springs, Ark, and kind friends under the leadership of Rev. Charles Hannigan raised a substantial amount to defray his expense there. As to the benefit derived from the trip some of his friends differ. He had high hopes himself, however, which were blasted by the attacks which undermined his strength. He was transferred from Baker School as a teacher to Navy Hill School in order that he might be near his home, but he was never able to enter upon his duties. He was seen upon the streets of the city on Wednesday preceding his death. He was always cheerful. The attack which ended his life came on him Friday night, 24th inst. He fell asleep and did not awake again, passing away Saturday morning as peacefully as a child. He leaves a wife and three children to mourn their loss. Churchen Vacant Here. The Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church, Mt. Carmel Baptist Church and the Second Baptist Church of South Rich mond are vacant. Persistent reports are to the effect that Rev. R. V. Peyton has reconsidered his announcement that he would not over again return here to accept the pastorate of the Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church and he is expected to enter upon his duties there about January 1st, 1914. Rev.

Beal vs the United States, involving the validity of the "grandfather clause" of the Oklahoma constitution. Former Senator Joseph W. Bailey of Texas present the case for Quinn and Beal and Solicitor General Davis for the United States. Mr. Bailey argued that the court should look to the letter of the law, rather than to the manner of its enforcement, in order to determine its constitutionality. He contended that as a matter of fact, the "grandfather clause" did not discriminate against the Negro voters of Oklahoma, except those who may be unable to read or write any portion of the state constitution. This, he declared, should and in his judgment would inspire in the Negro citizens a desire to learn to read and write, thus elevating the citizenship of the state. For a time it looked as if the former senator would concede that the law was unfairly enforced, but he cleared up this point by declaring emphatically that no such question had been raised. However, the burden of his contention was that the highest court should interpret the law itself, independent of any other consideration. Solicitor General Davis emphasized his contention that the "grandfather clause" had been adroitly drafted in order to prohibit practically all illiterate Negroes from voting, while it permitted most illiterate whites to cast their ballots. He insisted that the law was clearly in violation of the fifteenth amendment to the federal constitution. "While the fifteenth amendment did not confer the right of suffrage upon any one," he said "it did confer upon citizens of the United States from and after the date of its ratification the right not to be discriminated against in the exercise of the elective franchise on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude." Referring to the record, Mr. Davis said that there was "substantial evidence that the-defendants willfully and corruptly conspired together to injure, oppress and intimidate some of these Negro citizens named in the indictment." An Appeal For Help. Mr. J. W. Foy of Bumpass, Va. had the misfortune to lose his home. Fire totally destroyed the house and its contents, the estimated cost of which is $1800.00. He is an honest, hardworking business man and worthy of whatever contributions, large or small, you may be able to give. With his family of six children he is without a home. Anything that you may have to give will be gladly received by addressing him at Bumpass, Va. Editor Mitchell Travels. A Southerner's Greeting—A North erner's Criticism—The Theatrical Play—A Trip Down the Harbor. I awoke Wednesday morning, October 8th, 1913 in my room in Young's Hotel, Boston to find the skies still dark and lowering. The rainy, misty, foggy weather was still in evidence and tended to mar the pleasures of the American Bankers' Association. The main body of that great financial organization which meant the meeting of all of the sections was scheduled to take place that morning at Symphony Hall at 9:30 o'clock. I hastened to the meeting place. The white ushers were scrutinizing closely every one who entered. POLICE OFFICERS THERE. TOO. Police officers stood on the outside. Ladies and guests of the bankers were politely sent to the galleries. I entered the Hall. It was magnificently decorated with palms, ferns and green foliage. Even the galleries were similarly treated. Away up on both sides were niche in the side walls in which were placed statues of the Grecian and Roman mythology. Bankers from all sections were filing in. The banners of the respective states were to be seen and each member sought a raiding place under his state's insignia. THE MEETING BEGINS. It was after 10 o'clock when President Reynolds called the meeting to order and all arose when Rev. George A. Gordon, pastor of the Old South Church offered prayer. When we resumed our soots again, the address of welcome was delivered by His Honor, John F. Fitzgerald, Mayor of Boston. His remarks were brief and felicitous. Thomas P. Beal, Eag, President of the Boston Clearing House followed with timely remarks. Mr. Reynolds was Vice-President and became acting President by virtue of the death of President Charles Henry Hutting. He is a pleasing speaker and a good presiding officer. His annual address was replete with information. The membership of the Association is now 14,100 a gain of 777 in one year. The annual income of the Association as estimated for 1512 will be $226,164. REPORTS MADE General Secretary Fred E. Farnsworth made an excellent report and he succeeded in winning confluences from all sections of the country. The report of the Treasurer, Mr. J. Pletcher Farrell of Chicago was read. The reports of the other officers and Committees were submitted. A downright sensation was caused when Hop, E. J. Hill of Connecticut addressed the Association in support of a resolution to endorse the work of the Currency Commission and the action of the Chicago Conference. He discussed fundamental principles and elicited hearty applause as he proceeded to show the fallacy of the administration's policy in dealing with the currency measures. A VOICE FROM ARKANSAS. Hon. Thomas C. McNeel of Arkansas secured the floor and proceeded to defend the Administration. His remarks elicited much comment and many interruptions, but the President finally secured him a silent hearing. The amusing part of it was that when it came to a vote, after a slight amendment in recognition of anything that the Administration might do towards enacting proper legislation, he voted for the original resolution which practically condemned the administration's policy on the currency bill. ABLE SPEAKERS. Then followed Hon. Fostus J. Wade of St. Louis, Mo. one of the ablest financiers in this country. He took issue with Mr. McRae and made the point that he had not read the Currency Commission's report. He was followed by Mr. A. J. Frame of Wisconsin, who is an authority on finance. He, too, opposed the currency bill, of the Wilson administration. Mr. Joseph H. O'Nell of Massachusetts spoked and offered a compromise resolution. The matter went over to the afternoon session. Jumpeon had prepared just across the street at the large Horticultural Hall. Here I was in the midst of more than four thousand of the wealthiest men of the republic. Here were millionaires and multi-millionaires. In the galleries above, their wives and relatives looked down upon this scene of transcendant beauty. RACE CONDITIONS FORGOTTEN. No one stared at me. I was "lost in the shuffle" so to speak so far my attracting any undue attention was concerned. My presence there was taken as a matter of fact and the gentlemen in the Virginia delegation treated me just as friendly as they would have done in the streets of Richmond city. The importance of the financial subjects under discussion, my abortion in the purpose for which I had come to learn all that I could caused me to forget my humble origin, my race and my color. I remember bereed only that I was a Virginian and a banker and I applauded as voef- (Continued on Fifth page) Concert and Lecture A Grand Concert and Lecture will be given in Van De Vyger College, North First St. Tuesday, November 4 at eight P.M. Local talent will supply the music for the concert, which will be of a high order. The lecture will be delivered by Rev. James B. Albert and the subject will be "A Trip to Panama and the Caribbean Sea." Father Albert only recently returned from the tropics and is well fitted to speak of conditions there. The proceeds of the lecture and concert will be for the benefit of Van De Vyger College. It is expected that the colored people of this section will attend this entertainment in large numbers and thus show their appreciation of the work being done by Van De Vyger College for the education and uplift of the colored race. The above is from the latest photograph of T. Thomas Fortune, the veteran editor of New York, who will lecture in Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina in November under the management of Mr. P. R. Young, editor of the Norfolk Journal and Guide. His subject will be "The Black Man's Burden." FIRST TO BE ADMITTED Pasadena, Cal., Oct. 23, Miss Margie L. Danley, the daughter of Rev. and Mrs. S. B. Danley has been admitted to Sayer's Pasadena, Cal. Business College, the first of her race to be admitted in this city. She was admitted as colored and not under any foreign nationality as they have had to do in other cities of the state. Dr. Johnson Sick Again. Rev. W. T. Johnson, D. D., pastor of the First Baptist Church, who had practically recovered under the treatment of Dr. O. B. H. Bowser is again at home in bed under treatment. His Madame reports that he is improving. —Mr. A. L. Scott, Clinton Forge, Va. was in the city this week. —John H. Myors, Esq. of Washington, D. C. who is practicing law in that city was here this week on business. —Rev. E. J. Smith of Augusta, Ga. and recently of Richmond, Va. is pursuing his ministerial studies this Winter in Washington, D. C. —Mrs. W. R. Ransom and Mrs. Virdis May Ransom have returned home to Macon, N. C., after an extended visit to Philadelphia with her sons. —Rev. A. A. Galvin, D. D., pastor of the Loyal St. Baptist Church, and Rev. S. A. Moses, D. D., pastor of the High St. Baptist Church, Danville Va. were here to attend the funeral of Rev. D. W. Davis. Had the Small-Pox. Celia Heckman, an eighteen-year-old colord servant, was moved last Sunday from the home of Rev. Edward L. Pell, D. D., 1908 Floyd Avenue to the Smallpox Hospital. Mrs. Pell reported to the Health Department yesterday that the girl had a suspicious eruption, and prompt investigation was made by City Medical Inspector B. E. Summers and Dr. W. H. West. It was a certain that she had been employed as a servant there for some time. About five weeks ago she went to King William County on a visit, and evidently caught the infection there. She returned to Richmond thirteen days ago. All of the members of Dr. Pell's household had been previously vaccinated, and, as a further precaution, were revaccinated, so that no serious apprehension is felt in that locality. It develops, however, that the heckman girl has roomed at the Colored Young Woman's Christian Association. 22 West Leigh street. Seven colored women living in that building were, at once vaccinated, four of whom had never been vaccinated. One of these, a shaker of the victim, slept in the room with her. Persons in the neighborhood were vaccinated. Home Coming Day at Fifth Street Richmond, Va., Oct. 28, 1913 To the members and friends of the Fifth Street Baptist Church. Greeting: Since we have designated the second Sunday in November (Nov. 9th, 1913) as a great "Home Coming Day," therefore we are calling upon all of our members far and near to be represented on this great day either in person or sending a donation to help in this wonderful effort. Not only are we urging the membership to be present or send a donation, but we are cordially inviting all friends of our church to be present on that day: Done by order of the Fifth Street Baptist Church. REV. S. C. MANTEL, D. D. Pastor 215 E. Clay St. City. 20 Missouri and the Supreme Chancellor. (St. Louis, Mo. Argus). In his address before a large number of Pythians in this city, Supreme Chancellor S. W. Green showed how little he knew about the rights of the Grand Lodges of the several states. His threat to "shoot" them in line with a policy that is unfair and unjust will meet with opposition. Unjust laws, unjust taxation is a thing of the past with all thinking people. While we think the Supreme Chancellor means well, unfortunately he is surrounded by ill advisers. Already many of the States are opposing this unjust taxation to pay high salaries, and any attempt on the part of the Supreme Officers to enforce this will mean a disruption of the Order. Missouri has always been opposed to such taxation. --- Leesburg (Va.) News Items. Mrs. Garner Diars left for Washington Friday where she spent some time with Mr. Diars, returning on Sunday eve. Mr. Robert White and Mr. Charles Norris of Stofflin, Va. were the visitors at the Surfist Church Sunday. We were glad to see them. Rev. Dr. Tyler was at his post as usual Sunday morning. He took for a subject, Coming Back to God, Isa. 15th chapter, 15th verse. At eight o'clock he was at his post and took for a text, Romans, 6:23- For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Subject, Going Beyond This Life. He talked as never before. The meetings will continue this week and next. Mrs. Charles Bryant is confined to her bed. Mrs. Mallinda Bentley is on the sick list this week. Mrs. William Roberts is much improved. Mr. Leroy Veney of Washington was in town on Saturday. Unity Lodge, No. 24, Belights of Pythian Celebrates Anniversary. Unity Lodge, No. 24, K. of P. celebrated its 17th Anniversary, Friday night, October 24th at Pythian Castle. After the transaction of routine business, Chancellor Commander Christopher Foster made his annual report. It was a gem. Sir W. Van Jackson. M. of P. gave the history of the Lodge in a manner that was pleasing to all. The annual report was read by Sir Moses Whitlock, K. of R. and S. It showed the Lodge to be in a very strong financial and numerical condition. Col. Rosem C. Mitchell was presented and made an address. After the exercises the members enjoyed a repeat which had been prepared by the following committee: Sir Fred R. H. McKensie, Chris Foster W. Van Jackson, William Cryama and Sir Strana. Farmville. (Va.) News Farmville, Va. October 27...In the last week's issue we spoke of the revival at First Baptist Church, Rev. R. G. Adams, pastor, conjured by Rev. Paul Monroe of Danyville, Va. We promised to give the result of the meeting in this week's paper. Just before attempting to mail our letter we learned that the unknown, yet suspected stranger Mr. Rambler has returned to our town and of course, meddling as usual into what is called by some, other people's business. We didn't want him to write up our revival. When success comes to a great cause the promoters like to have the honor of giving it to the world and of course, it is perfectly natural for them to give the bright side and often is a part of the truth. Mr. Rambler will give the whole truth. Somehow we found out through some one of his friends just what he said. We will tell you after we shall have given our idion of this great revival. Farmville was stirred by the gospel preached as never before during the pastorate of Rev. Adams and it is now believed that the turning point in the history of the Church and the betterment of the community is not far off and that stranger spoken of in The PLANET two years ago, known as Mr. Rambler who has been coming here meddling into our affairs is about to prove to be a blooming in disguise. We have not been liking so much plain truth, most especially that which exposed the sins of our everyday life. If we did not allow the preachers to do it, certainly we would not allow a stranger to come here and speak against officers of the Church drinking whiskey, members living double lives, dancing and gambling. This was our main objection to Mr. Rambler, but now some of us want to acknowledge he is right and we intend to stand by the right. Now, here is what 'Mr. Rambler said concerning our revival. He said "The Church is composed of three classes of members; the 'old regulars,' the some-timers and the 'don'tmores.' The old regulars were at their post every night. A large number of the sometimers locked hands with the old regulars and pushed their vultim. The result was the Church received thirty odd on Sunday and many more to come. "The do-nothings, many of them, would not even come to the house of God, others and stood around the door and peeped in at the windows, while the servants of God, through Him, fought well." Rev. Monroe returned to Danville with many well wishes. Rev. P. M. Robinson prosecated at night. We want a live agent to take the agency of The PLANET here. There is money in it. The Cumberland and Prince Edward Sunday School Union met Sunday, October 12th at Green Creek Church. Mr. Anthony Mason and Miss Evelyn Hairson were sent as delegates from the First Baptist Sunday School. Mr. A. F. Lancaster, Superintendent, was present and gave a very interesting talk, also Mr. P. H. Hilton, President of the Union gave a very helpful talk on the explanation of the lesson. Many Sunday Schools were represented at the Union. Will Enter Soldiers' Home Mr. D. J. Chavers who has been a familiar figure at the Mechanics' Savings Bank for several years has decided to enter the Soldiers' Home at Hampton, Va. He has been indisposed for some time and he finally decided to take this course. He will leave next Monday for his new home, followed by the best wishes of the many friends he leaves behind. FOOTBALL! The Olympia Athletics will play the third game of the season when they line up against the strong St. Paul Normal and Industrial School team from Lawrenceville, Va., in Broad Street Park Tuesday afternoon, November 4th at 3:30. The Olympia team is in prime condition although they have quite a number of new players that have not been seen in action this season.

A PACKAGE FOR MARK TWAIN. It Came to the Great Humorist Just Before a Christmas. In the winter of 1833, when Mark Twain was in financial difficulties and his family was in Europe, the great humorist went to live temporarily at the Player's club in New York. Just before Christmas a member named Scott said one day: "Mr. Clemens, you have an extra overcant hanging in the costroom. I've got to attend my uncle's funeral and it's raining very hard. I'd like to wear it." The coat was an old one, in the pockets of which Clemens kept a melancholy assortment of pipes, soiled handkerchiefs, neckties, letters, and what not. "Scott," he said, "if you won't lose anything out of the pockets of that coat you may wear it." An hour or two later Clemens found a notice in his mail box that a package for him was in the office. He called for it and found a neat bundle which somehow had a Christmas look. He carried it up to the reading room with a showy air. "Now, boys," he said, "you may make all the fun of Christmas you like; but it's pretty nice, after all, to be remembered." They gathered around and he undid the package. It was filled with the pipes, soiled handkerchiefs and other articles from the old overcoat. Scott had taken special precautions against losing them. Mark Twain regarded them in silence, then he drew. "Well, hang Scott. I hope his uncle's funeral will be a flat failure."—Bookman. Two Houses. A man with knowledge, but without energy, is a house furnished, but not inhabited; a man with energy, but no knowledge is a house dwelt in, but unfurnished—John Sterling. Another Glass. The seventeenth century puritan preachers talked for two hours or more not "by the clock," but by the hour glass. At least one of them turned the glass to humorous account. He found bjmself no further than the middle of the sermon when the sands had run out. "Drunkenness" was his subject, and, reversing the horologue, "Let's have another glass," said he. The Right Way to Do It. Ellhu Root tells a story about himself and his officiate to correct the manners of his office boy. One morning the young autocrat came into the office and, toasting his cap at a hook, exclaimed: "Say, Mr. Root, there's a ball game down at the park today, and I want to go down." Now, the great lawyer was willing that the boy should go, but thought he would tough him a little lesson in good C. M. M. "PLEASE SIR, THERE IS A DALL GAME TODAY." "James," he said, "that isn't the way to ask a favor. Now, you sit down in my chair and I'll show you how to do it properly." The boy took the office chair, and his employer picked up his cap and stepped outside. He then opened the door softly and, holding the cap in his hand, said quietly to the small boy in the big chair: "Please, sir, there is a ball game at the park today; if you can spare me I would like to get away for the afternoon." In a flash the boy responded: "Why, certainly, Jimmie; and here is 50 cents to pay your way in." His Greatest Need. An old darky was encountered by an expedition sent by Uncle Sam for the relief of sufferers by the Mississippi floods. Uncle Eph was in a dislipidated looking skiff or dugout, which he was having considerable trouble to keep afloat. He was bury padding with one hand and bailing out his craft with the other when the relief boat came within hailing distance of him. The captain of the relief boat called to him: "Hello there, uncle! What do you want?" "Nothing but wings, boss," was the answer. Gave Him a Hint One day, shortly after George M. Coban began an engagement in Chicago, and before the attaches of the theater there had become used to seeing him at close range, the famous authoractor encountered an old colored woman industriously scrubbing the marble floor of the foyer, chanting the while a doleful dirge like air. "Auntie," commented the comedian, "that's a mournful tune you're singing." "Yns. air," she answered. "I know it's a mournful, but by singin' dat chune an' mindin' mah own business I suspect to sit to beheen." THE BROSSOND PLANET, MICHIGAN, VIRGINIA.

"Well," applauded Miss Pepprey, "I guess it is heat to be perfectly frank with a fellow like that."—Philadelphia Press. Light From Meteors The trains of light left by meteors are often visible for several seconds after the meteor has vanished. Occasionally, they remain visible several minutes and in a few rare cases they have been seen for more than an hour. In the case of those that last a long time they are seen to waver, become deformed like smoke blown by the wind and finally to dissipate. Right Up to Date. "Is the young man all right who is going to marry your daughter?" I "have every reason to believe so.

YOUR APPOINTED WORK. I am glad to think I am not bound to make the world go round. But only to discover and to do. With cheerful heart, the work that God appoints. —Jean Ingelow. 8am Weller. It was Sam Weller who made Dickens famous. "Tickwick Papers" were a complete failure financially until this unique character was introduced. The press was all but unanimous in praising Samvel as an entirely original character whom none but a great genius could have created. Dickens received over $10,000 for "Tickwick Papers" and at the age of twenty-six he was incomparably the most popular author of his day in England.—London Standard. Last Reason's Implments. Farmers often complain that most of the profits from the wheat crop are eaten up by the purchase of new machinery. On some farms this cannot be wondered at, the owners being so careless with their implements. Even now the harvesters that took off some of the crops last season are still standing in a corner of the puddock, exposed to the weather - Australian Farm Journal You will receive courteous attention and your patronage is earnestly solicited.

"We shall be delighted," said a French journalist, interviewing George Bornard Shaw, "to know your opinion on the modern French literature and drama." "I dare say you would," was the reply. "My terms for a comprehensive answer to this modern question are 1,000,000 frames." So far as we know, the French interviewer never cared to give such a sum even in exchange for Mr. Bernard Shaw's literary opinion.—T. P.'s London Weekly. Unarmous. The British Weekly tells a good story of the late poet Laurence, Mr. Alfred Austin. He had been talking a good deal about himself after a dinner, as was his wont, to the annoyance of the other guests, and at last he said, "Lady —, is it time for the poet laureate to go to bed?" And every one in the room said "Yea." TIME TO HOLD FAST. When you get into a tight place and everything goes against you until it seems that you cannot hold on a minute longer, never give up then, for that is just the place and the time that the tide will turn.—Harriet Beecher Stowe. Didn't Like the World Didn't like the Word. "Monstère," said Mirabeau, secretary to him one day, "what you require is impossible." "Impossible!" cried Mirabeau, starting from his chair.
