Manners Sch Those who had little have much and those who have much have little—that is the condition which the rapid transition of circumstances has developed in England, says a London special cable to the New York World. It is an important moment in the history of the race, for the English are changing manners. The men who have been taught to special money are being replaced by those who have been taught to make money, and it is one of the most cruel circumstances of the situation that many of the former are earning their livelihood by teaching the latter to live in luxury. These thoughts have been suggested by the following letter in a London newspaper. "Sir: I enclose my card, but not for publication. You will see by it that I am a younger son of Lord — who inherited a large estate in the midland counties, which has been in the possession of the family for several centuries. The extravagance of my father, agricultural depression, mismanagement and a large family needy, for him to sell the estate, together with all the contents of the house. The money he obtained through the sale was comparatively little, for the property was disposed The introduction of elands into the United States is likely to be attempted before long, the department of agriculture having given its approval to the idea. All that is needed is money, which congress will be asked to give. The animals, which are the largest of all antelopes, would be very valuable in the desert regions of the southwest as a source of meat supply. They require almost no water, are accustomed to forage for themselves and are quite tractable. The eland is nearly six feet high at the shoulders when full grown and weighs 1,600 pounds. It is not particularly swift, unlike most of its competitors, and it can overtake it by running. Its flesh is considered a delicacy. Commonly, it browses in herds in the waterless deserts of south Africa, to which it is native, its ability to get along for months together without water being a mystery. To some extent doublest it depends upon moisture derived from succulent plants such as wild watermelon. It has the two varieties of eland, one being redish in color and the Were the men who built the prehistoric structures at Zimbabwe in Africa of the same race as the Ateses and other native races that have left pyramids and monuments of various kinds throughout Central and South America? This speculation takes its rise from the uncovering at Umtail in Africa of an "arrarest" stone. An arrarest is a rude apparatus used in Mexico and in some parts of the United States for grinding, and, at the same time, amalgamating ores containing free gold and silver. It consists of a vertical axis with horizontal arms attached. To power huge masses of rock are fastened by chains and dragged over the ore, which is placed on a bed of flat stones, within a circular inclosure usually about twelve feet in diameter. The arrarest stone at Umtail was discovered by mining engineers in the region of the prehistoric gold mines. It is believed that the people who built the old temples and courts at Zimbabwe must have been the same as those who ground and amalgamated the metallic ores with those crude implements. It was one of the merits of the fecal system that it developed the legs of Princes and people alike. The Baron always set his castles on the summit of a hill, so that the capture by an enemy would be a difficult task. His retainers—ironically so called for the reason that he never allowed them to retain anything of value—built their huts on the slope of a hill outside of the castle walls, where they could hope for the protection their lord. The medicians were therefore a town that planted more or less abruptly, and its inhabitants continued going up or down hill, to the great development of their calves.

PAUL AND MINNEAPOLIS, MINN., SATURDAY, JUNE 3, 1905. WITH STANLEY ON THE CONGO WITH STANLEY ON THE CONGO The Great Battle of Aruwimi River. New Hamphire Man Who Accompanied the Great Explorer on His History-Making Expedition Tells of Some of the Incidents of the Long Journey Through the Dark Continent. John M. Carder of Meredith, N. H., now in middle life and working every day as a section man on the White Mountains division of the Boston & Maine railroad, was almost a quarter of a century since, a lieutenant of Henry M. Stanley on the Congo, and had a share, if only a minor one, in the history-making opening up of the continent by that intrepid explorer. Mr. Carder's story of his adventures was as follows: "I was born in Natick, R. L. and when but 14 ran away from home and went to sea on the whaler Sea Ranger from New Bedford. Then I was shipwrecked on Cape Horn, picked up by a vessel whose crew mutinied because the officers abused a cabin boy, and I was one of the crew that did time on St. Helena with a ball and chain attached to my leg for three months. When I was sent to Australia, I went to Australia, and there enlisted in the British navy. I served on the gunboat Victoria, Capt. John Holmes, along the east coast of Africa during the Zulu war. "I think it was in midsummer that Capt. Holmes, with some seventy-five men in launches, went up the river, past banana Point, well up toward the cataracts. Just what sent us there I do not remember; possibly the one that was the first traders. Stanley had gone up before that, and was making his way, build- The Great B ing roads, etc. Every schoolboy knows about it. A lot of supplies were to be sent up to him with an escort of natives, about twenty-five in all, and Capt. Holmes furloughed me to take charge of the party. I think it was September before we reached the Stanley party, and stayed on with them, June 12 following it. The Stanley didn't want me to leave him then; he wanted me to go on with his expedition, and I always been sorry since that I didn't. "Stanley was a great, a wonderful man. I slept in the same tent with him more than once. He was a good man to travel with. He would share anything he had with his men. He wouldn't eat white bread or any other delicacies and let you eat sweet potatoes and yams. He seldom used profane language. He talked little but enthusiastic. Our journey was partly on land and partly on water. Stanley had boats built for taking to pieces in going around the rapids. The men took turns on the boats and on shore. It was a tedious journey, for it was hard work pulling against the current. And it was still more difficult when we had to go by land. The traps were so thick and tall the sunshine never got through them, and the undergrowth was a tangled mass of low bushes overruned with weeds and vegetation. We had to cut these before we could get through them. "Stanley carried a large quantity of salt, a lot of copper, wire, knives, bright red calico, jewsharp and other goods, which he traded with the natives for provisions—goats, chickens, sweet potatoes, yams and cassava. I never saw any pigs; the natives say there is a devil in a pig. Some of our truck was given to the native chiefs a kind of tribute money for passing through the country. "No. I never saw the pigmies. Stanley was later on. We heard of the cannibal tribals, but it was not our luck to run up against them. They existed, though, for we had to watch all along, for fear some of our men would be picked off and eaten. "We did meet one caravan of slave traders. They were Arabs, the lead- ers, were, and bad fellows. They had burned a village some three days' march ahead of us and made prisoners of the people, killing the very young and the aged, and made beasts of burden of those able to walk. These they made carry palm oil, ivory and grain to the coast. The trading houses there take all that comes. There was lots of raiding in those days, and village burning. The old trails to the coast are marked by a line of human bones. "Well, we had a skirmish with that crowd. I think two of our bearers, natives, were killed, and several of the Arabs. We captured the lot, took their spoil and set the prisoners free. "One of the women prisoners told us an awful story, although I afterward heard it was a common sentence among the shaves. She had a child with her, which she carried in her arms, together with her load of goods. She had broken down on the march that very morning, and, it being a question as to leaving her load or the baby, the brute of an Arab overseer had left the baby by the roadside. We sent men back along the path for miles the way they had come, but the baby was gone. Either some animal had made off with it or the natives had found it. Most likely it was the animal. "Our natives were blazing mad, and it looked ugly for Mr. Arab, for the woman had pointed him out to the natives. The men wanted to kill the Arab at once, but Stanley objected, saying that they were not there to enforce capital punishment. The Arab disappeared on the night; I think some of the natives made away with him. We buried the dead of the party near the river, but the digging was hard, for the soil in some places is almost like iron, and it is my opinion that the natives threw the Attle of Aruwim Arab dead to the crocodiles. It was easier than digging graves. "On entering these native towns or villages our native guard put on great airs. They were their old British uniforms, tunic and trousers. When on the march they always took off and carried their trousers, but when we went into the villages it was always in state. No coat tails flapping in the breezes then. Those darkies were the envy of all the natives along the coast. "At Abuku we met one tribe which worshipped, instead of the native gilly-gilly, our idols, what the native interpreter said was 'white man's god'. This was a pile of stones on which was a board or plank with some kind of writing on it. Stanley, however, said it meant 'the unknown god'. "It was at Akamina, a place of some thirty large huts, the headquarters of King Jack," where we stopped for some days, that I was introduced to what the natives call rum, but which is a kind of beer. Stanley said he had seen the same stuff made on his Livingstone trip on the east coast. The natives take sweet potatoes, oranges and some kind of grain, mash them in a big trough, made by burning out a log, and then let it stuff ferment in about three hours of like syrup. Two or three drinks of this will make a man drunk for three days. It is the most intoxicating thing I know of, but leaves no headache. After once testing it, to dream about it sets a man 'hot'. "At Akamina, also, we were treated to an exhibition of the native methods of catching the big snakes, the boa-constrictors, which have a way of picking up men—at least the natives claim they do. We had seen some monstrous fellows wound around the trees or stretched out on the branches but had run across only a few of the venomous kind, and of course we were particularly interested in this 'catch', and in the way it was done. "It was early in the morning, perhaps 3 o'clock, but still daybreak, for down comes early and quickly down there. The night had been hot and close, and I had got off my cot and laid on the bare ground. Suddenly we heard a noise as if pandemonium Defective Page Says Stanley Was a Great Leader and Always Careful and Considerate of His Men-Cruelties Practiced by the Slave Hunters on Their Raids for Human Victims-Capturing a Big Snake. had been let loose; shouts rent the air, guns were discharged and temoms beaten. At first we thought the village had been attacked by a passing caravan, and we grabbed our rifles and rushed out of our tents; but we soon discovered that King Jack's subjects were only rejoicing over the capture of a big snake. "They had set a trap and caught him nicely. The village was surrounded by a wattled wall. At the base of this wall they put a hole in sufficiently large to add a hole sufficiently large to put the pet a goat, secured tied to prevent his escaping. On the inside they put another goat, likewise secured. The bo-conconstrictor, meandering around for an early breakfast, came upon the outside goat and proceeded to swallow him. Then, still unsatisfied, and smelling the other goat, wormed his head and part of his body through the hole, and made short work of the inside goat. His greediness was his finish, for the two animals still held their respective positions, although inside the snake; one was outside the hole and the other inside, and the reptile was a fixture, unable to move in either direction. In this plight the natives found him and proceeded to make a long and furious struggle with his long and furious struggles his tail smashed the walls and cut a wide swish in all directions. "When we were sure he was dead vimi River. FROM A SKETCH HARD JOB THE LONDON NEWS BY STANLEY. we measured him. He was thirty five feet long and from eighteen to twenty inches in thickness. Then the natives held a great pow-wow over the body and had a dance. Then they cut the snake up, and every one, old and young, paraded through the village with a piece stuck on the end of a long stick. They would repeat some kind of gibberish and then leap into the air, twirling the stick around their heads and yelling at the top of their voices. Killing a big snake like that meant that they were going to be victorious in some combat with their enemies. A snake insulted was one of the most exciting things that happened on the whole trip. "When I left, Stanley he was with the Ambooku's tribe at the Narrowes. I had gone much further than I intended, but it seems that I could have continued up the river with him, so Capt. Holmes told me when I finally reported for duty on the Victoria When I came to leave Stanley he shook hands with me warmly, and gave me a big bundle of letters and other mail to take back to the coast, which I did.

C. Mellen, 726 San Pedro avenue, celebrated the ninety-seventh anniversary of her birth. Mrs. Mellen's maiden name was Sarah Ann Hilton. She was born April 13, 1808, at Gloucester, Mass. She was twice married, her first and second husbands being brothers. The first was David Mellen and the second James Mellen. She lived in Cambridge, Mass. for many years, and came to San Antonio about eight years ago. As extraordinary as it may seem since that time she has visited Boston and Cambridge, making two trips, the last one about four years ago. Both times she stood the trip well, and returned feeling much improved and in better spirits for having visited the scenes of her earlier life. Her long life, has met many of the truly great men of this country and a number of famous foreigners. She twice met the Marquis de la Fayette, the first time at the ceremony of laying Mrs. Wilinfred E. Commeline, wife of Lieut. Col. C. E. Commeline, commanding the Royal Engineers in Bermuda, who has been visiting in New York, was the heroine a couple of years ago of an adventure that is still remembered in garrison circles at the British port of Plymouth. Mrs. Commeline was driving a dogcart near the town, when the Border regiment, under command of Lieut. Col. G. H. Ovens, commenced a marched march. As the hand approached the horse took fright and bolted down a crossroad, while the groom was hurled from his seat. Mrs. Commeline planted her little feet against the dashboard and pulled with all her might, but the frantic animal tore on at full speed down the long, straight country lane. The drivers of a couple of drays moving in opposite directions tried to make way by drawing their vehicles one to the left and the other to the right. Mrs. Commeline managed to steer the runaway through the narrow passage, but both wheels of the dog were hit and the latter pitched her out. She recovered her seat, however, and held firmly to the reins, though her arms were nearly Tom and Jerry are sixteen-year-old horses owned by a Jersey City lawyer who has a farm at New Brunswick, N. J. They are greatly attached to each other and are apparently miserable unless together. Jerry has been blind for several years and Tom has appointed himself his mate's guardian. They occupy adjoining stalls and spend hours rubbing noses. For a long time after Jerry lost his sight the stableman found the blind horse in his companion's stall every morning. He couldn't understand how he managed to untie the hatter, and told his employer that he guessed somebody was playing pranks in the stall. But the pranks continued so long that he was directed to solve the mystery. He hid in the hay, where he could get a full view of Tom and Jerry in their stalls, and waited developments. The part which a cavalry horse takes in a battle can never be filled by any machine, no matter what its capabilities. The horse seems, in the hour of battle at least, to take on characteristics which belong only to a being endowed with reason. He partakes of the hopes and fears of the conflict, the same as his rider does, but a month later the service he knows every call. As the column swings into line and waits the horse grows nervous with waiting, and if the wait be long will often tremble and sweat. As the call comes to advance the rider can feel him working at the bit with his tongue to get it between his teeth. As he moves out he will either try to get on faster or bolt. The lines will carry him forward, and the horse takes his ears, and one can feel his sudden resolve to brave the worst and have done with it as soon as possible. Dreaming of home.

Meanwhile the regiment had broken ranks and started in wild pursuit. Bandsmen who had dropped their instruments, privates with and without rifles, and officers, mounted and on foot, were streaming over the fields, jumping ditches, breaking through hedges and vaulting walls in the hope of heading off the road the truck took an upward turn, and the horse becoming exhausted. Mrs. Commelne was able to regain control of him and bring him to a stop. Col. Ovens, pale with excitement and concern, was the first to come up. "Are you hurt, Madam?" he asked anxiously, as he assisted the fair driver to alight. "No," gasped Mrs. Commelne, adding, as she saw the scattered segment approaching, "Is — my — hat — on straight?" The book of astonishment that spread over the colonel's face quickly gave place to one of admiratica and amusement. "Do you Madam," he exclaimed, with a bow and a smile, "you deserve the Victoria Cross!" They came at a late hour. Tom shoved his nose over into Jerry's staff and whimmed. Jerry poked his nose close up to Tom's ear, and the man in the bay was almost certain that he saw the horse with the good eyes smile. Then Tom turned his head around and looked all over the stables as if to learn if the coast was clear. A moment later he was tugging away with his teeth, and he didn't stop until his team mate was free. Old Jerry slowly backed out of his stall and crowded in alongside Tom, who greeted him with an unmistakable neigh of delight.

That the colorline is cutting a wonderful figure in this country can be inferred from the single fact that German and his cohorts propose to Afro-American disfranchisement the only issue in the impending campaign. But Maryland, my Maryland, is not the only section which is agitated by this troublesome question. California is stirred up by the same trouble to a frightened extent. A great number of people recently held in San Francisco, at which many able addresses were made. The sentiment of the convention may readily be inferred from a few extracts from these addresses which are given herewith. One fact which which involves a needed sensation was the statement that the laborer would do all of the work of building a house, which involves the employment of thirty-four different trades, employing only Japanese for, for a much less price than white laborers did the same; while the laborer did the work of the wages paid to white men. The chairman, in his meeting address paid his respects to members of our citizens who are invited to admire the Japanese on account of their military valor, and others who were carried away into a life process of illogical reasoning termed the universal brotherhood of man." Another speaker declared that "we will have to continue this fight until it is decided whether the Japanese or the Mongolian are to be the cities of the earth. A third declared that someone cannot come and mix with us, become blood of our blood and bone of our bone must be kept out." A fourth advocated the exclusion of Mongolian children from the schools of the state. A Jew who was present with the Japanese are not an important group. They, they can invent, but they ought to be kept out." It can readily be seen that this phase of the color-line trouble involves considerations not heretofore connected with it. It is an international matter that the importor has already called to the fact that China, indignant at our exclusion act, proposes to reallocate by boycotting American products. The loss of the Chinese markets for our cotton products would at once ban the Southern market; the factor; for China is by far our best customer. If to China, Japan be added, their retaliatory measures would be cataritous to the United States. As the white brother is already lamenting over the weight of his burdens, it is better not be rash in adding to it. MASSES MUST HAVE THE BALLOT. The Chicago Tribune is responsible for this: "There was a time when Americans looked on the ballot as a panacas for men to whom it was given had been in dense political ignorance they would suddenly become enlightened and would use the ballot intelligently." There have been experiences in this country which have taken popular belief in that theory." In the last sentence there is an evident allusion to the legislation of the reconstruction period; but what is implied is flatly contradicted by the history of those times. That legislation was not based upon any law that was forced by the exigencies of the situation. The emancipation proclamation rendered absolutely necessary the enactment of the Thirteenth Amendment; as Mr. Lincoln asserted, the country could not remain half slave and half free. But the Southern states, soon after the Thirteenth Amendment, once established a system of peonage, actually more atrocious than the preexistent system of slavery, whose regulations were devised by an ingenuity that was little less than internal. That fact rendered necessary the enactment of the Fifteenth Amendment. The Fifteenth Amendment rendered it possible to restore the states to their proper relations to the Federal government and prevented a resort to much harsher measures. This purpose, the Fifteenth Amendment, was the means of carrying out the pancasae for all lilies, but all history teaches that the masses must cast the ballot or the classes will establish a bureaucracy. The Charleston News and Courier reprints the address of Judge Brawley, on Memorial day, at Chester, S. C. it is an eloquent presentation of the sentiment which the South is endeavoring to impress as to the causes of slavery, and which the South fonds the right of secession and argues that the war was not fought for slavery, on the part of the North, nor against it upon the part of the North. But it seems to be a fact that the very authorities for this proposition quoted by the judge, prove the very contrary. One of these proofs is a quotation from the "Present Lincoln, as follows": "Have no intention, directly or indirectly to interfere with slavery in the states where it exists." Mr. Lincoln evidently supposed that slavery was the stumbling block, and Judge Brawley himself refers to the agitation in regard to slavery, and Judge Brawley does not if its actual cause. But the real cause of the war escaped the notice of the judge. By the adoption of the Constitution of the United States two elements as antagonistic as heat and cold, or fire and water, were yoked together. These were free labor and slavery. These were free labor and slavery, able that they did not do so earlier, was due to the talent and energy of many men of the highest order. But even these men could only delay the fifth act. It was bound to come. In the South, there are many planters who never suffer from scarcity of labor. They can get all the labor they need, without the least trouble. There is another class, much larger, which is always short and filling the newspaper. This class has the liability of Afro-American labor. Why is this? The reasons are purely personal. The planters of the first class treat their laborers decently, recognizing that they have some rights which a white man is bound to respect; the second class is the very opposite, and it is always short and always howling. The Afro-Americans have the second class spotted and will not work for Rabbi Messing, of Montgomery, Ala., recently made an address to the graduates of an Afro-American college, and got off the following tommy-rot under the head of wholesome advice: "Do not mix too much with the government; do not seek for snaps from the government; do not seek for snaps from the staff Tillman, Vardaman and other 'best friends' give out. In a republic every good citizen should take an active part in the government which is 'of, for and by the people.' Possibly the rabbi's reference to 'snaps' may have been inspired by the fear that the Afro-American might rake in the Jews had a chance to graft them. During the past year, 4,392 white and 5,393 Afro-Americans were granted license to teach in Mississippi. The fact is interesting as showing how much attention Mississippi pays to Gov. Vardaman's nonsense, and is thus a demonstration of the amount of influence he wields in his own state. The attempt to destroy the educational advantages of the Afro-American population, failed in Mississippi as it did in Arkansas, and thus a demonstration of the wastes of that effort. The states are not represented by such men as Jeff Davis and Vardaman. "From the union of the wretched lad of our towns with a tawdy slur," says Dr. Butler Hogan, "spring children who are bold, pert and dirty as a London sparrow, who are precocious in all the smart vices of a new century, in the old-fashioned virtues of truth, courtesy and reverence." If such be the outcome of the much vaunted western civilization among our brethren of the "superior" race, it may be doubted if much harm would be done by sweeping some of it They are having a high old time at Howard University, Washington, D. C., all on account of the color prejudices of President Rev. (?) John Gordon. He ought to resign or be removed, but should or not that of institution, or any other for that matter, if what is charged is true. --- That, "the devil takes care of his own" was again verified last week when old Ben Tillman was driven over an embankment and sustained a fracture. He would have been pleased to write an obituary, but must wait a little longer, we suppose. It is said that the Northern and Southern Baptists are to "get together.

Latham, with an account by Whitewalt Red. Two volumes. $v. Net. $1.50. By mail. $5.00. New York: G. H. Hawkins & Son. "A Political History of Slavery," by Wm. Henry Smith, is an account of the slavery question, from the early days of the 18th century, to the reconstruction period in the United States. There is an introduction by Whitewalt Red, with well-written care and which gives quite an extended criticism of these two very instructive vol- strategists Von Mokke. In reading certain chapters of this book on the basis of this very recent ingruces of the Revolution being enacted in Paris and elsewhere the events which led up to the white germany are thus described by author: "Bismack prepared the war, Napoléon II created it the greatest beggery on himself with a grimness. He sawn his thinned the country. They might have stopped it by its earliest gesture. M. Thiers contend and which gives quite an extended criticism of these two very instructive vol- Mr. Roid says: "This Political History comes from the inside as they occurred, from among familiar citizens, from the subjects, and from access to much unpublished information and Governor Brough, in the records of the state office held during a critical period, and in constant personal communication by a few people engaged in matters by a free people enlarged the bounds of freedom, to communities and Anglo-Saxon institutions—to Horace Chase and Seward, Stanton and Welles, first among legislators and cabinet ministers, superior of them all, and certainly the political of the list, Abram Linneau. In Chapter I, the author says: "If there is one thing clearly established in the men that formed the Constitution; who, recognizing that such an institution was inconsistent with the great principles of civil liberty for which the colonies had contended, was a public, refrained from inserting in that great charter a name so repulsive to free-perpetualism that we were moment of that day. There was no state government of that day. There was no state feeling that was injurious to society was in no sense dependent upon sectional lines, its ultimate extinction was gone. It was to be the rule. This came early north of Maryland, and it is not unreasonable that the protection of the African slave trade, emancipation would have followed in Delaware, Maryland, North Carolina, Kentucky and Opposition to the institution of slavery arose from religious convictions as to its sinfulness or from economic and social policies. The resistance of those who with Mr. Jefferson condemned it because of its destructive influence became as impotent as his, or succumbed to the violence of political forces; while that having its source in religious feelings played an important part in the creation of a third party. The Society of Friends led all other denominations in the employment the public prints as to whether Wm. Lloyd Garrison, Benjamin Lundy or Chas. of moral influence for the eradication of slavery, though there were not wanting outspoken utterances in the P.esbyterian, Baptist and Methodist churches at an early day, especially in Ohio. Kentucky and Tennessee. "Some years ago one who had been conspicuous among endeavors to the anti-slavery faithfulness of current history in dealing with the slave trade, and thereon a controversy sprang up in Osborne was entitled to be styled the first slave trader, but the writer who challenged "the truth of Osborne to be mentioned before either Lundy or Carrison, but strangely overlooked the claims of another whose career was Osborne, a friend, who was born in New York, to the life and career, exceedingly interested in the count of his early life and career, exceedingly interested in the history of 28 years of age he visited North Carolina, where he met the Negroes, who held and wrote an essay entitled "Considerations on the Keeping of Negroes, which was published, a wide circulation, which was published, a wide circulation, the work of emancipation. He traveled from colony to colony, preaching remonstration. The author discusses with painstaking detail the Negroes' Bill, the Respel of Missouri Compromise, "The Nomination of Lincoln, and in their discussion exhibits a knowledge, which could only result from the leading men of those stirring times." Vol. II opens with a chapter on "The Invasion of the United States," "In the history of nations wacky wriers are treated with scant respect. They become oppression; they imperial governments and invite orders to enter in; they are the Mr. Buchanan was brought face to face with the Union and overthrow the government, he construed the fundamental law to be executive.

By Daniel Walt Howe, author of the Puritan Republic, 8 vo. pp. 421. $1.50. Indianapolis: Dobsmerrill Co. The war of '61-5 will never cease—at least in the present generation, to be a perennial and never failing topic of absorbing interest. This is so, because it was a war of giants; because many of those giants still survive its vicissitudes; its "hair breadth escapes, and the imminent deadly breach"; its long and dreadful marches; its Gettysburg and Chickamaugas; because the finale of that conflict profoundly influenced the civilizations of the world; because its echoes still reverberate in all the various activities of American life. Because of these things the author's volume is interesting. It can be read with profit by any one and many incidents of the great strife which has hitherto remained unwritten, is brought forth by Mr. Howe. One of the most interesting chapters in the volume is one dealing with the region of the Commuion of the world of the group of Soldier. The author tells us, that nearly every important Confederate commander has a list of the most important black soldiers; that the matter is finally bated in the Confederate Senate, and the bill authorizing the enlistment of Negro members is the only list on which that of Senator Hunter. By that when the desperate circumstances of the Confederacy became so visible that the leaders were not in the field of the party, "cause," a draft order was issued to force the black soldier to fight under the Confidentiality flag, but that before it could be transferred to the Fischer in which he was held the flight of Jefferson Davis was at hand. This chapter is especially interesting at under its banner. The Commuion of the Commuion of 1871, interesting chapters in the book, "The Style is clear, uninvolved and natural," and the author has written instructively. HISTORY OF THE COMMUION OF THE HISTORY OF THE COMMUNE OF 1871. Translated from the French of Lissagaray by the author, the New York International Publishing Co. "History of the Commune of 1871," translated from the French of Lissagaray by the author, and published with one of those political convulsions which have no frequently shook France. The translator has performed the difficult art of preserving the peculiar epigrammatic and pointed style of all French. The author, which Lissagaray appears to be a master. The descriptive art of the author never lags from the opening to the closing of this book of extraordinary happenings. The Commune of 1871 was th. culmination of the revolt of 1871, the culmination of a criminal torpor that rested upon those in authority, and which followed swiftly upon the heels of the revolt. The author was under 90 armies under that erode of military strategists Von Moltke In reading certain chapters of this book one might easily imagine that the revivalation were again being enacted in Paris and elsewhere throughout the country. The events which led up to the war war Germany are thus described by the author. "Bismark prepared the war, Napoleon II, wanted it, the great bourgeois looked at it, the great Napoleon hopped on the earnest gesture. At the end, the content himself with a grimace. He saw in this war our certain rule: the war our treasure, the war our bible; he united the Left, the tiers-part, the journalists have made palpable to them the strength of opinion, have said to the Tullerles, to Paris if needs be, "War is impossible; we shall combat it as trea- "Poor France! will save thee? the humane, poor France! will save thee with the Empire." While the upper classes sell the nation for a few hours of rest, and the liberals demand that they be freed from the empire, a handful of men, without arms, unprotected, rise up against the still all-powerful men who form the bourgeois have gone men who form the bourgeois have gone men to the people, faithful children of the Revolution; on the other hand workmen unite for the study and conquest of the rights of labor. In vain the emperor, with their forces, to seduce the workmen." The author then follows up with a description of the terrific political struggle that has taken place in theinally burst forth is all the horrors of the Paris. Marselles, Toulouse and Narbonne, human slaughter houses, in this fictitious struggle which for mundness and unfortunate reasons, and counterparts in the history of the human family. Many new events—that is events which have been witnessed by many of that period are brought forward by the author, in his work which considered the history of the point is an achievement of no inconsiderable merit.

Dr. Abbott made the acquaintance of Dr. Abbott and gave him the mate friend of his from that time forward. He attended Dr. Beacher's church in New York and gave an outline of the character of the great preacher in a history book of the life of the preacher, a history book of the life of the character as he appeared to Dr. Abbott. The career of Beecher as an anti-slavery reformer, before and during the civil war period, was called to the public. Of the 1960s, the capital matter of the utmost value. Mr. Beecher's anti-slavery campaign in England and the United States, in London, was the first of that year from a season on the continent. His intention being to rest before sailing for New York. But fate ordered otherwise. The people who have been so well-planned in the aristocratic and moneyed class-in-law, overwhelmingly in favor of the country. In the fall of 1960, the American cause "was sure to invite every species of insult and indiginity. This sympathy for the South and the North was not as much as he had ever had, and he assumed all the living proportions, and rumors are afloat to the effect that the British government, in all probability would be forced by public interest, and the law of the country, as the other going forward in America in behalf of the South. Such was the state of feeling when the people reached England. The people of the United States were not as much as of course greatly alarmed over such a prospect. And after much trouble, per seuded Dr. Beecher to make a lecturing of the people who were in the state of the Federal cause. By this they hoped to counteract the work of agents of the Confederacy who were then seduously fan-like in the service of the people who were in the species and publications. Any other innovation would be weakened, but having pro-moteable, a courageous step of the mass blood-red. Insults of things and all the other annoyances which the British public consider perfectly legitimate to prevent an unpopular speaker's friend's proseute the campaign from being hegird. ANTISEMITISM *Bernard Demlem* by Bernard Lazarez. *Transformation* by John W. New York: International Publishers. Recent events in Russia have given us a new translation from the French, and its pages must have been written many times. The most painful interest to the Jewish question. The author is himself a Hebrew, and his pages are plied in the title to his book, but this circumstance does not seem to have hindered his ability to make opinions. The case is certainly stated in the book, and the author is attributed with fairness. The fault is found to be not all on the part of the Gentile author, who is charged with having brought trouble to his people by manifest short-trouble to his people by manifest short-trouble. The treatment given the subject is his histories between Jews and Gentiles are traced from the earliest times. Perhaps his histories between Jews and Gentiles learn how much of proselytising has been carried on reciprocally between the Hezekiah and the Israelites has resulted a greater race of race adult. The author does not believe racial distinctions whether these be founded upon the color of the skin. So long, however, as the opinion prevails that races are distinct part and inferiority on the other part and inferiority on the same part and Gentile as well as between black and white. There are too many illustrative histories of this country, and this book can be read with profit by many who are called upon to decide questions daily arising FORMS OF ENGLISH POETRY Johnson's Forms of English Poetry.

Equally suitable for young people and for general readers, this volume contains the essential principles of the construction of English verse, and its main divisions both by forms and by subject matter.

Mayor Dunne wrote himself down as a firm foe of the color line, and declared that so long as he was mayor of Chicago no man should be barred from the service of the city on account of his being an Afro-American. This came in response to complaints that Chief of Police O'Neill was swearing in as special policemen dozens of Afro-Americans in striking contrast to Sheriff Barrett's refusal to recognize Afro-Americans who applied for work as special deputy sheriffs. "We already have fifty or more on the police force," said Mayor Dunne when his attention was called to the policy of the chief who, at the time was administering the oath of office and distributing swabs and clubs to a security officer Afro-American men. If Afro-American men are good enough to be regular policemen, having passed the civil-service commission examination," continued the mayor, "they are good enough to serve as special officers now. We need them, too." SEEN AND HEARD IN MANY PLACES. Terrible tales were told not long ago about public and private wickedness in St. Louis, and it is not generally known that the condition of the city as there revealed by the magazines and newspapers—with some incidental help from various Missouri courts—has since changed vastly for the better. Such, however, is the case and now St. Louis and people who have been so extremely good that the difference between perfection and the state to which they have attained is almost too small to measure. We make this statement confidently, not because we have received any direct information to that effect, but because we notice that an association, composed of eighteen St. Louis clergymen, said to be "the best known ministers in town," have been moved to make a united attack upon the "at homes" which several well known families are accustomed to hold on Sunday evening. Now of course, if St. Louis were not in a state of almost excessive sanitation, if its officials were not all disinterested patrons and its citizens not As the Public Learn to Know Us Our Business Grows.

Learn to know us—We save you money. Do You Want to Save Money? WE FURISH THE WAY. C free from sizable faults and vices, this estimable band of eminent parsons would have something else to do before they tackled the Sunday evening receptions. Mind we are not defending their choice of a night for these functions. Whatever opinion we may have on that question, unless it happens to coincide with that of the St. Louis ministers, is probably worth less than theirs, except for our own private uses, but admitting for the sake of argument, that Sunday evening receptions are in some degree reprehensible, obviously they are not as reprehensible as any one of a dozen or more transgressions against law and morals that were until recently, according to common report, the commonplaces of St. Louis life, and naturally, if all those graver sins had not been abolished the ministers would now be fighting those long departures frmo rectitude, and not a short one, the atm of a scribe as well as a character—gatherings of friends for quiet conversation, with no other means of entertainment, provided. Fortunate indeed, is the city where the expert moralist can find nothing worse than this to战 against, and more fortunate the clergy that can win public attention for a "movement" for remedying an evil from which the public suffering and loss are as small as from this one. They have the milenium in plain sight. As I write I remember that my morning paper chronicled the fact that a band of Philadelphia ministers marched in body to the city hall to protest against the selling of the gas works to a lot of boodlers, and to ask the mayor to veto the work of the city council. Truly our ministers are a progressive lot, and the next procession of the gentlemen of the cloth will no doubt be headed by a brass band. ST PAUL. The Voice of the Negro. Mr. S. D.
