An Old Kentucky Earthquake Tells of Japanese Traits Just Between the Lovers VOL. 21. NO. 28. A young negro from Liberia, George H. Northam, is now visiting this country, from which his parents emigrated to the nego republic many years ago, spoke of an interesting phase of the trade in Liberia. "It is a curious fact that we buy very few clocks. They are regarded, I know, as an essential part of the furnishings of the home in all civilized countries. The comparatively small number of our people who have fairly good incomes have clocks in their houses. But most of the Liberians never think of purchasing a clock. The fact is, they have little use for clocks, and I think the reason will interest you. "You know, our country is only a few degrees north of the equator. The result is that for a good part of the year the sun rises at exactly 6 o'clock, or within a few minutes of it, and sets at 6 o'clock. Here are two points of time quite accurately fixed for us. "Then when the sun is directly overhead it is noon. Of course, the sun in its apparent movements between the tropes of Cancer and Capricorn varies a little in these positions, but only a little anywhere in the trop- This vivid description of an earthquake was written by Audobon, the naturalist. It occurred in the year 1812: "Traveling through the barrens of Kentucky in the month of November, I was jogging on one afternoon when I remarked a sudden and strange darkness rising from the western horizon. I had proceeded about a mile when I heard what I imagined to be the distant rumbling of a violent tornado, on which I spurred my steel, with a wish to gallop as fast as possible to a place of shelter; but it would not do; the animal was coming, and instead of going faster, so nearly stopped that I remarked he placed one foot after another on the ground with as much preceiving as if walking on a smooth surface of ice. I thought he had suddenly foundered, and, speaking to him, was on the point of dismounting and leading him, when he all of a sudden fell a greaining piteously, hung his head, spread out his four legs as if to save himself from falling, and stood stock still, continuing to groan. Traitors among the Japanese officers are not treated pleasantly when their misconduct is discovered. Bennet Burleigh in his new book on Japan tells of an instance. Two Japanese transports laden with men, stores and heavy siege artillery had been suddenly attacked by the Russian Vostok squadron with sunk the other escape with difficulty. Who had given information of the sailing ships? "The Japanese search to find out who had blabbed and ultimately traced it to a high official in Tokyo, one holding sea rank and engaged in the admiralty. A Russian check for a large sum was traced into his hands. He was confronted with it and his receipt signature thereon. Then he was led into a secluded room, where a number of his fellow officers had gathered. The stripped him maked him upon him and kicked him to death." The only practice of firing the same shells or even three times developed during the siege of Port Arthur. Mr. Burleigh says: "The Russians" If it wasn't for the children the woman would get a divorce. She has been deceived for ten years. That is the period of her married life. The courtship leading up to that nuptial contract covered two years. In that time the man and woman wrote many letters. The woman wrote 746 and the man 715. The day before the wedding the woman said: "Henry, have you kept all my letters?" "Every one," said Henry. "How sweet of you," murmured the woman. "Now, I'll tell you what will do. I have made two sofa pillows, one for you and one for me. Instead of stuffing them with cotton or feathers or swet balsam we will fill them with our old love letters and keep them forever and ever. Won't that be lovely?" Henry said he thought it would be. So the woman gave him his pillow cover. It was very pretty, also green, appropriate. He also green, embroidered in gold. It said, Of course, I will not kiss you, I- Oh, you must not kiss me, I guess you won't-t-you love me so? I am sure you've told a dozen-no, I tell you I will not permit You-no, so, he lays a "veep hit" there's all the same and-stop, now-well, You promise that you'll never tell I-oh, no, and I will not be so rude to me And be so rude to me You're sorry. Well, I'm glad to know You feel satisfied, so, we say, And so, sir, no; we shall not kiss And be good friends again. You miss It there, but I'm prodigial Of treasure which I had not thought Was worth so much until you brought His mind to my notice. Why. Were you to say? And when I, Might not be so sure; If you persist I'll run away; ics, and the most ignorant of our people soon become expert in determining the time for all positions of the sun. "I do not suppose there is a man or woman in Liberia who cannot tell the time in any part of the day with in fifteen minutes of the true time, and usually with a closer approximation. When the farmer is in the field he knows exactly when to go home to dinner, and his wife has the meal waiting for him as he reaches the house. "If he has an appointment at 3 p. m., and also has the habit of punctuality, he meets his engagement almost on the minute. Our farmers say they have not the slightest use for clocks. I presume Liberia is the only country with a tradition of civilization does not regard clocks as necessary in the business of life. "I am told that down in the Congo Free State the missionaries teach the natives to read the information that a cloak presents. This is very well as a matter of information, but the natives understand the relation of the sun to the time of day as well as we do, and I do not think a large number of clocks will ever be sold to them."—New York Sun. "I thought my horse was about to die, and would have sprung from his back had a minute more elapsed, but at that instant all the shrubs and trees began to move from their very roots, the ground rose and fell in successive turbines, and I became natural bewildered in my ideas, as I too plainly discovered that all this awful commotion in nature was the result of an earthquake. The fearful convulsion, however, lasted only a few minutes, and the heavens again brightened as quickly as they had become obscured; my horse had become natural position, raised his head and galloped off as if loose and frolicking without a rider. "Shock succeeded shock almost every day or night for several weeks, diminishing, however, so gradually as to dwindle away into more vibrations of the earth. Strange to say, I for one became so accustomed to the feeling as rattle as to play the few man-made objects. The earthquake produced more serious consequences in other places." supply of big-gun shells completely gave out, so continuous search was made for unexploded Japanese missiles. These, when found, we fired back from our guns and in some instances shells were found which had been twice fired at us by the Japanese. The fact that we was the gunner by the copper gas-check bands, as our rifling is in the opposite direction to that of the Japanese guns, the bands showing two marks of their twist and one of ours." Concerning the curious Japanese custom of carrying song birds when out for a walk the same author comments: "Yes, it seems ridiculous to see an oriental bearing a cage on either hand when he goes out for a ramble, with song birds for companions; no stick and no dog. The grandfathers we saw the first umbrella in London. It seems but yesterday that I saw a lovely blossoming tree in a Tokyo junk shop, kept there solely for the owner's private deletation." "From one I love." His pillow also was an ornate affair. As soon as the woman and her husband went to housekeeping she placed the two pillows side by side on the sofa. When they began to get dusty she packed them away in scented tissue paper and put them in a dark out and patted them and "Dear Henry." The last week she the woman remembered a certain poetic effusion she had one time written to Henry. She wished to see just how she had worded it, so she opened the soft pillow and looked for the letter. It was not there. none of her letters were there. Instead of stuffing his pillow with her loving epistles Henry, the wretch, had used old bills and business letters and circulars, because as he shamelessly admitted to axed the money he didn't want to take chances on being made to feel like a fool by having "all that tommyrot brought up against him when he reached the age of gray hairs and discretion."

Near the head of Black River Valley in Windsor county, VT, ten long miles from the nearest railway station at Ludlow, lies the hamlet of Plymouth Union. The most interesting inhabitant of Plymouth Union is "Aunt Esther" Damon, the last on the roll of Federal pensioners as a widow of a soldier of the Revolution. This fact alone would make her an object of national interest, but it is emphasized by the fact that she is a remarkable woman, especially when allowance is made for adverse conditions which have made her life a hard struggle from her earliest recollection. Only when her vital spark is flickering in the socket have it probably been reached which promise a measure of relief from the tension of bitter poverty. Possessing all her faculties, with a clear memory and keen perception, This Summer as a school-marine she deems herself happy and finds great cause for thankfulness in what for most people would be a barren old age devoid of everything calculated to make old age tolerable. The life history of "Aunt Esther" is not one which lends itself to romance. She was born in Plymouth township, not far from her present home, on the first day of August, 1814. She was one of a family of eight or nine, born to a heritage of poverty. Her father is remembered as a "stirring" man, who began life with nothing, married prematurely, and worked hard to provide for his family. In cutting timber to build them a house he was killed by the fall of a building, and lost all her resources and found it impossible to hold her family together. One by one they were "bound out" to to service, and were never reunited. At a tender age Esther was thus put to work, and remembers this period chiefly as one of neglect and ill-treatment. Time may have modified, but has not obliterated, the memory of the wrongs of her youth. She grew up a willful, headstrong, undisciplined girl, difficult to manage, no doubt, but with a strong character and right instincts. There is a tradition that she was "wild" but in a community still dominated by Puritan spirit and peculiarly intolerant views, of thought or action, the term would mean less than it might elsewhere. It is probable she resented the severe and unsympathetic guidance which may have been offered her, and decided to conquer the difficulties of life in her own way. By one kind of work or another, shift to live, and finally drifted to T- ship to live. IN THE SIERRA NEVADAS. Best Mountain Camping in the World to Be Found There. Stewart Edward White, author of "The Silent Place" and "The Blazed Trail," writes in the Country Calendar: "To my mind the best mountain camping is to be found in the Sierra Nevada of California. This for several reasons: In the first place, the climate is superb and an occasional midday thunder shower represents the summer precipitation. You need never carry a tent. You are not very vindictive. The main fruits are good. Feed is abundant. Fishing is fine. Game is easily procured. But, above all, the scenery is various and magnificent. The main system is about eight miles wide. From the lowest rounded foothills of sage-brush to the main crest of bare granite and glittering snow, you will find every sort and variety of country. Pine woods whose like I have never seen even in Michigan's best days; forests of the giant sequoias, many miles in extent; box canyons 4,000 feet sheer in depth; mountain meadows; glacial lakes; streams full of trout and a great unbroken solitude all your own. "The main country of country are districts, larger than an eastern state, almost unexplored, and trails rough enough to frighten a goat. You love your choice of every country you have ever visited. I could take you to places typically several of Arizona, Wyoming, the Black Hills, Montana—and all within a week's ride of one another. You can touch every gradation between snow and desert." House of Mrs. Damon in Plymouth Union, VT VINCENT MAYER Mrs Esther Summer Dagnon, son, which then had a charcoal blast furnace and was of something a center of activity. At a grotesquely named hamlet called Frog City she is said to have taught a district school for one or two terms. Her own education had been very limited, and teaching could not have offered her a successful career. By thus doing whatever came in her way, she managed to support herself until she was twenty-one years old, when she married. Her choice of a husband was not well considered. Nahh not whom she met, but a brief courtship, was a wilder seventy-five or seventy-six years old, with adult children and a record of good service as a soldier of the Revolution in sunday Massachusetts comands. He is traditionally remembered as an easy-going, honest, improvident man, and not inclined to be industrious. It is said that Esther Summer was misled as to his ability and willfulness to support her, and thought he had some property, whereas he had no money. Perhaps he was the owner of Temper. Their marriage was celebrated on the 6th of September, 1935. After her mother's death she did not feel equal to continuing this profitless and unsatisfactory enterprise, and returned to Plymouth Union to take up her residence with an old resident of that place, a Mrs. Snow, who had a house but no income. In that house she has lived for the past sixteen or seventeen years, and there she hopes and expects to remain for the rest of her life. During a period of many years she has been in receipt of a federal pension of $8 per month, and this meagre degree will not agree with the degree for the needs of both old women. Even with no charge for rent, an income of 40 cents a day was scant support for two, both old and too inform to do anything for themselves. A FOR THE MAN AT THE CASE. Elaborate System Intended to Ensure Correctness. Mr. W. A. Hewett, a corrector for the press, in an article on "Proof Reading" in the Printers' Register, gives a specimen of how the reading-boy deals with the productions of the Poet Laurate in the way of business: Double quotes You smallcaps must wake an' call me hurlycmy call my hurlycmy mother dearsm (sniff).

Dark Graduates Outnumber Light. No one could have attended the class day of Columbia College, New York, without being struck by the prevalence of dark young men. Out of 120 or so there were two with hair of fiery red and three with flaxen locks—five blonds in all. The were either decided dark, looking in their blubbish like young priests in Rome, or were darkish brown of hair and eyes. little help has been tendered from time to time by liberal friends, and the neighbors have been well disposed and would have relieved any actual suffering had they known it; but money is a scarce commodity in Plymouth Union, and a dollar looms large under all conditions. Curiously enough, Aunt Esther Damon is the one person in the village with a current reputation for liberality. Her friends describe her as characterized by an open-handed generosity which verges on indifference. She has always assisted in the work, and has given what she could ill spare for the support of the causes it fostered. Mrs. Damon has been confined to her bed for more than half a year, and during that time, when fatal pneumonia was resisted with great difficulty by the combined efforts of a faithful physician and a devoted nurse, she has lost to a great extent the use of her limbs. Like most old people, she suffers from defective circulation. Her gnarled and misshapen hands tell of rheumatism and chalky deposits in the joints. Her heart action is irregular, and is perhaps the gravest of her symptoms. With the exception of a slight deafness Mrs. Damon retains her facilities remarkably. She is perfectly consecutive, observant and gracious in manner. In speech she avoids the mannerisms of the locality, and her language is excellent of her enquiry. It is grammatical, and her words are well chosen. I am told she has a sense of humor and enjoys a contest of wits, from which she rarely comes off second best. From the first of April her pension is to be $24 per month, but she will not receive the first installment of this increase until the quarterly payment in July. It will not be sufficient to provide the comforts and luxuries which a very old person needs, especially in winter, when firewood is a large and constant item of expense; she will be lived upon a third of that amount it seems affluence. So likely was she to disburse her income in gifts and benefactions to persons she deemed more in need than herself that a guardian of her person and estate was appointed by the court, to be the treasurer and almoner of her pension money. For this purpose an estimable lady living near by, Mrs. Julia Taylor, was selected, and her appointment gives assurance that whatever funds are made for her pension will be wisely and lovingly admits feared.

Men and women are working in the fields, gray or mousetouched teams of oxen are drawing narrow, drays along the paths, there are stumps of pack ponies, here and there a Turtle riding on horseback, perched with short stirrups on a high Eastern saddle. The men are mostly in the jackets and wide drawers we have seen in Servia, with feet bare, or in sandals, bound up the leg with complicated patties of string; the women in red petcats, with white hoods and wimples. The land in this early summer, when the chestnuts and acacias are bending with blossom, and the shoots of maize and the tobacco plant, wears a prosperous, fertile look, and the people seem a sturdy, well-grown—you would almost say a contented—folk. But the Arnaud or Artofian soldier, with his rifle and loaded bandier and his ragged shoes, slouches along every station platform.” Here is his description of a street in Uskub: "My window looks out upon a street in the city." "Say, judge," said Jim Fury, after he had been sentenced to be hanged on the outskirts of camp for horse stealing, "if that's any technicalities in the law that I happen to think of I's pose I肌 take advantage of them, can't?" "Sartin, you肌, Jim, Jim, though I reckon you won't find many in your case." "Mebbe not, but will ye do me a favor?" "If I肌, Jim, I'm allus willin' to favor the condemned to a sartin pint." "Well, then, sentence me to be hung at 10 o'clock in the foenoo with a rope." "I'll do it. Just consider that the hour, and that ye are to be choked to death with a rope. I never heard of anybody hein' hung with anything else." There was much amusement after court adjourned about Jim Finding technicalities in the law, but his remarks were not fully understood until the next day. Then for the first time the boys began to look around, but after half an hour's hunt it was found that there wasn't an inch of rope in the camp. The nearest A story comes from the west that is good enough to be true. In the autumn of 1901, when the royal tourists, then known as the duke and duchess of York, were passing triumphantly through a loyal dominion, they came to a small town not far from the Rocky mountains, of which Alexander Guthrie was mayor. of the mayor and his wife, he it remarked, in the words of Mrs. Jean Blewit, "he was Scotch and so she was." There was a change in the plans of the royal party, and the mayor received word that they would arrive at 10 o'clock on Monday morning, instead of four hours later. Sunday afternoon was a period of "Sunday suit" with feelings of pride and anxiety, and assured his wife Margaret that her black silk would be the proper garb for the occasion. He arose bettles and saw that the station platform was properly decorated. But what was his horror to discover after 6 o'clock that Margaret was out in the back yard bending over a washub and prespiring with honest toll. When first I tried to chronicle the doings Jim the author of the Clamley Press Said: "Jot the items down, and set them out. That sirl my busy life. We'll show the work that Mudoyderick is very much alive." I scanned had bought a notebook and filled my fountain pen, when news arrived that Mrs. Cobb told him that she had said he guessed the culprit was the Chink. Then Silas Perg was raided. And though they found no rum, that he was full of fuss, and things began to him. The air was filled mostly fakes. Soon none denied that Eli Wood missed two fine quanghau rakes. On Your Knees, Court Said. Fourteen-year-old Joseph Porter of 65 Willow avenue, Hoboken, was arraigned before Recorder Stanton recently for running away from home. "I just happed a freight train to go up the road," he said. "I didn't know I had gone so far, and then I was afraid to go home." His mother told the recorder that Students Are Home. The Norwegian student singers reached Christiana from their American tour on July 4. They were received by twenty thousand people and conducted to the university, where the Norwegian and the American flags greeted them. The students sang "Ja, Vi Elsker" and "The Star-Spangled Banner," in which the big crowd joined heartily. What most Christians need is not more assurance of faith but more assets. $2.40 PER YEAR. street of Urkub, and even at this early hour it is full of movement. The oxwains of the peasants come creaking slowly down from the mountains. They are long and narrow and springless, and each is drawn by two bullocks. Some of the animals are sleek, and another is large, with the body that drag the country carts among the vine-clad slopes of Tuscany; some are wild-looking, buffalo-like creatures, with ragged heads, borne low in front of humping shoulders, and threatening curved horns. But they follow their peasant masters quietly enough, as they walk in front with a leading string." Another sight from his window is thus that of the women among the Christian peoples do their share of manual labor. Here are a dozen of them, who look like a sort of female navies. They are dressed in white cotton and wool, with wide divided skirts, and high boots upon their substantial legs; each bears an ax or a pointed heart-shaped shovel over her heart, shaped shovel over her weapon of war; they are broadly built and muscular, and with wide-treaded, manly strife. One soldier sees women who walk so well." town was twenty miles away, but Jim stopped any one from going there by saying: "Gentlemen, I was to be hung at 10 o'clock, and it's past the hour now. I was to be hung with a rope, but you haven't got any. I demand to be set aside." "And—and this is a technicality?" queried the judge with a blank face. "She be, sir—two of 'em, and I stand on both. Joe Thomas stole all the rope in camp last night and hid it, and if ye hang with anything else it'll be illegal." There was an awkward and entangled situation, and then the crowd began to back Jim up, and the judge saw that the points were well taken and said: "Jim, you're shorthy got the burgle on the crowd this time, and I'm gain' to turn loose and axe you to drink with us. That's plain law, jeas as I give you. Then the crowd is goin' to form in line and each one helps to boost you out of town. That's a technicality.

"Alexander Guthrie," said Margaret solemnly, "you're mayor of the town and may have to make a fool of yourself. But Monday's the day for the wash and it's going to be done, duke or no duke. Queen Victoria was a sensible body, and it's likely that the duches of York would think far more of a woman that did her week's wash at the proper time than she would if I were to put on my best gown at this hour of the morning. Now, off with you to the station!" Alexander departed in sadness, for he knew the quality of his wife's "queen." So it happened that when Prince George and Princess May stepped on the station platform at Clyde they were welcomed by a chief magistrate whose welcome had a subdued and chastened note. But from the rear platform of the departing train could be seen the broad back of Margaret Guthrie as she stood in the back yard hanging out the clothes of the household.

"The idea that the superior tribe could and had a right to control and guide the destinies of the weaker, led to the superior white race believing it had the right to control and govern the weaker race of the sons of Ham and slavery was dislocated at Vanderbilt Brewer's collegeized at Vanderbilt University, but the learned judge paid no attention to some other very interesting results, which we shall take the liberty to mention. That same idea led the "superior" race in Russia to skip out with great gaiety to control and govern the "inferior" race of Japan, with the result that "superior" race believed unmercifully deserved wallop. Again, that same idea led the "superior" race in the United States to conclude that it was ruined by Chinese cheap labor and it "went for the heaten Chinese." The result is that the Chinaman, ignorantly and obstinately refuses to be controlled and governed and guided by the "superior" race; for he has found out that he can force the mills of New England to suspend and can convert the Southern people to slavery. We think these results are worthy of attention even at Vanderbilt, and we are not alone in our opinion. --- Gov. Blanchard of Louisiana "spoke out in the meetin'" a few days ago and spoke like a man who means what he says: "There must not be any lynching in Louisiana while I am in Ohio." He had just come from Pointe Coupe parish, where he had been subpoenaed by the grand jury in a lynching case, and of an opportunity to appear before the grand jury, for the processes of court are matters which the highest officials of the state must obey as well as the private citizen. I know nothing about the lynching in question, and I am not sure of the spondence with the parish officials. "When I appeared before the grand jury I expressed my opinion on lynching most fully. I told the jury that lynching retarded immigration and otherwise injured people. I told them that the laws of the state must be enforced and upheld in every particular. They are ample to mete out justice in every case." It is just like the way all governors should feel about the barbarous practice. --- The Mississippi Supreme Court has just rendered a decision that street cars must have an actual screen or partition in order to separate the races, and not a mere sign. It moves the New York City marshal to issue a remark that the Jim Crow process "has been accepted with good grace by the Afro-Americans, that it is recognized by both races as the necessary solution of the problem." Of course the whites accept it for it puts the most degraded white man in a position where he can lord it over the cultured Afro-American, then no Afro-American of character or demeanor is considered as parish. We notice that the respectable self-respecting Afro-Americans of the South are not riding in Southern street cars to any great extent nowadays. It may sometimes be necessary to ride in a Jim Crow car on a steam railroad but it is never necessary for Jim Crow street car and any member of the race who does so is a funky who does not deserve the respect of his fellows. King Leopold of Belgium, an old scamp, who has become the richest monarch of Europe by plundering the Congo Free State, now proposes to spend a portion of his vast wealth in promoting enterprises for the benefit of his subjects, his own children excepted; which we think is a rare case. But we cannot help thinking that it would be much more honorable for him to return it to those from whom it was extorted. --- Dr. Lyman Abbott says that castle is one of the four great vices of the people of this country, yet he is doing as much if not more than any man in the country to promote castle. Dr. Lyman Abbott is one of the worst enemies the Afro-American has in America. Might Give Him a Chance A good story is related in Today of a man who, on a visit to Scotland, went to the kick on the "Sawbath." Feeling very drowsy he succumbed to the first sentence or so of the sermon. An elderly man, who had been watching with rising wrath the obviously "irrelecious" attitude of the stranger, bent forward, shoo' him and whispered in his ear: "Gle the mon a chance. Wait till he gets along a bit, and then it he's got going to sing to get sleep, but druna gang before he gets commenced."—Gentlewoman. One Who Has Suffered. Gossip is a humming bird with eagle wings and a voice like a foghorn. It can be heard from Dan to Beersheba and has caused more trouble than all the bedbugs, ticks, fleas, rattlesnakes, sharks, sore toes, cyclones, earthquakes, blizzard, smallpox, yellow fever, gout and indigestion that this great United States have known or caused the units ship up shop and begins the lullabies. In other words, it has got war and hell both backed up in the corner yelling for ice water.—Guerneau, Wyo. Gazette Lord Bacon's View of "Hope." In "Aubrey's Lives." this quaint story is told of Lord Bacon: "His lordship, being in the garden looking on fishers as they were throwing their nets, asked them what they would take for their cast; they answered so much; his lordship would offer them not more than so much. They drew up their net, and it were only two or three, and told them it had been better for them to have taken his offer. They replied they hoped for a better draught, but, said his lordship, "Hope is a good breakfast but an ill supper." Wooden Leg's Many Abuses. A wooden leg can play a thousand parts. It is a hammer, as well as a club; a cricket bat on occasions; a hod for bricks; a camp stool; a support for the drowning; a jury mast for the ship-wrecked; a flagstaff for a retired sailor; a soup ladle; a conductor's baton. It may be made hollow and filled with water, ink, penmichael, testimone, stinkey. No man with a wooon log is ever wholly destitute; he has his leg—London Punch. Life's Dying Light. Dear heart, the light is dying; let us go And dread the night there, "neath the flow- ers and snow" Life for a little space was sweet to go; But now the light is dying—let us go! We have known Love's morning—and the Falls now where we shall neither reap nor sow; We have been each other—for God willed it go; Dear heart, the light is dying, let us go! —Atlanta's Constitution. THE BOOK WORLD A POLITICAL HISTORY OF SLAVERY. Political History of Slavery. By William Smith. With an introduction by Whitelaw Reed. Two volumes. $v.o. Net. Price. $4.00. New York. G. P. Putnam's Sons. "A Political History of Slavery," by William Henry Smith, and deserved量 of the controversy over the slavery question, from the early days of the 18th century to the close of the Reconstruction strategists Von Molikke. In recent certain chapters of this book one rightly notice that the revolting creatures of the Revolution were a being enslaved by Britain and elsewhere throughout the country. The events which led up to the white Germany are thus described by author: "Bismark prepared the war. Napoleon III wanted the great bourgeois loco on the Thames image glopped by "Opposition to the institution of slavery arose from religious convictions as to its sinfulness or from economic and social reasons with Mr. Jefferson condemned it because it impotent as his, or succumbed to the violence of political forces; that while that hawk was an important part in the creation of a third party. The Society of Friends led ad litorum, denominationals, as to whether Lloyd Garvin, Benjamin Lundy or Chas of moral influence for the eradication of slavery, was as to whether outspoken utterances in the P-osyterian Baptist and Methodist churches at an early time occurred in Ohio, Kentucky and Tennessee. CIVIL WAR TIMES Civil War Times. By Daniel Walt Howe, author of the Puritan Republic. $1.50. Indianapolis: Dobbs-Merrill Co. The war of '61 will never cease—at least for the Puritan Republic and never failing topic of absorbing interest. This is so. because it causes those giants still survive its viciousitudes; its hair breadth changes, and the immature ones still survive their ful marches; its Getsyburg and Chickamauga; because the finale of that omnivorous world is the world of the world; because its echoes still reverberate in all the various activities of the world; because of these things the author's writings with profit: by any one and many incidents of the great strife which has hitherto remained unwritten, is brought forth 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 enactment of the criminal for that rested upon those in authority, and which followed swiftly upon the heels of the criminals. The author wrote the bullets under that truce of military strategists Von Moltke The author then follows up with a description of the contested factions which finally burst forth in all the horrors of the Paris, Marseilles, Toulouse and Narbonne were soon to be converted into veritable struggle which for madness and unchecked violence finds few counterparts in the history of the human family.

It is a work of art, and the pages must have been written many years ago, but the most painful interest to the Jewish question. The author is himself a Hebrew, and he is the author of the plied in the title to his book, but this book has been written in the form of his opinions. The case is certainly stated with great candor, and the blame is disgusted. The book is a world, but the Israelite himself is engaged with having brought much of the trouble to his people by manifest shortness. The treatment given the subject is historical, and the relationships between Jews and Gentiles are traced from the earliest times. Perhaps the treatment has been learned how much of proselytizing has been carried on reciprocally between the Hezekiah and the Israelites, and has resulted a greater mixture of race and culture. The author does not believe in race distinctions whether these be founded upon language, shape, the color or color of the skin. The opinion prevails that races are distinct part and inferiority on the other part and inferiority on the same part and inferiority on the same part and Gentile as well as between black and white.

Nothing is farther from the truth, so far as this house is concerned. For 22 years we have catered to the wants of the people of the Northwest and never a dissatisfied customer. The goods we carry are made by the VERY BEST MANUFACTURERS in America, and the only difference in this house and others which claim to be excusive and high-class is that we make good furniture easy for the man of modest means, while the so-called exclusive houses shut him off entirely by making him pay cash. Again, it is thought by some that an installment house asks higher prices than those which sell for cash. This is another "visionary theory," which is so far from the truth as to be ridiculous. One visit here will explode it. We sell at lower prices than any exclusive house, and WE GIVE YOU CREDIT BECAUSE WE KNOW YOU NEED IT, and because we can sell twice as much merchandise that way as we can for cash. Sixth and Minnesota——THE HOME·FURNISHERS——St. Paul, Minn. The Colonade Dancing Academy had a splendid crowd on last Wednesday evening and all enjoyed themselves. The Colonade music by Prof. Jacquette Mason and Armant's orchestra, gave the usual satisfaction. Armant's orchestra will be present at all the assemblies of the Colonade Dancing Academy, corner of University and Farrington Aves. Be sure to attend next Wednesday evening. Arthur Winstead, principal. The Colonade Dancing Academy seems to be pleasing the public imensely as the number of patrons is constantly on the increase. The hall is a large hall with a fine floor and nothing is as snug as can be. Depite all counter attractions every Wednesday night the usual large and highly pleased crowd is present. Principal Winstead is constantly on the lookout to please his patrons and especial attention is paid to beginners.

DON'T MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY. THE ELK EXPRESS CO. Has Moved to Larger and Better Quarters The Elk Express Co. is growing and spreading out now that spring is here. The company has leased the building on the corner of St. Peter and Ninth streets. No. 467 St. Peter for its office and storage. There has also been added to the present equipment one large stake wagon and two small ones. The company is now prepared to move any one as quickly as any other firm in the business and at as low rates. Only competent men are employed to handle the goods. All Wed Without Permission. A wealthy Australian squatter, in order to protect his six daughters from fortune hunters, left his property to them in equal shares, but decreed that if either married without the consent of the trustees she should forfeit her share to her sisters. Recently, when the case came up at Sydney, it was found that the six sisters had all married without permission and thus each had forfeited her share in the property to her sisters, a state of affairs which the ladies doubtless considered highly satisfactory. Problem or rebuys. Now here is a new view. A writer in the Cornhill Magazine says that the great problem of the day is not how we shall succeed in trade, but how we shall keep our souls alive; the problem of education not to teach a boy to earn his living but to show him how he may avoid spoiling himself while he earns his living. This is worth considering, anyway. The deceived wife may feel that there is no balm in Glead, but alimony is a pretty good substitute. When you come to say goodbye to old sins, it is unwise to hold a farewell meeting. When a man is complimented, he may not swallow it all, but he thinks there is something in it—Atchison Globe.

Peyton, Eva and Caroline, entertained at their home, 662 Willard street, Thursday of last week, the following named party: Mr. and Mrs. F. L. M. Ghee, Mrs. V. D. T. Turner, Misses Mabel Mason, Hattie Loomis, Ruth McGhee, Messrs. Franc D. Glenn and James Howard. Through an invitation extended to the Misses Lindsay, the party was shown through Mr. and Mrs. Atwood's private gymnasium including a reception room, ball room, swimming pool, astronomical observatory tower, and curios from parts of the beautiful campus of the party. The couple ride through the most beautiful part of the city to the state prison where the warden furnished a special guide who showed them all the various departments of the prison including the hospital and the chapel where the prison orchestra gave a little concert in honor of the visitors. The party, after a very entertaining visit at the prison, returned to the home of their hostesses where lunchon was served and boarded a latetrain for St. Paul, having spent a most enjoyable time.

One of the very best song recitals ever heard at Bethesda Baptist church was that given by Franc D. Glem of Oberlin, Ohio, last Monday evening. Mr. Glenn soon sang his way into the hearts of the large audience that completely filled the church. He has a voice of rare quality and sweetness which he uses to good advantage. He was assisted by Miss Mayme Weir. Prof. Armant, L. C. Mason and Prof. Weir. ALL "GENTLEMEN" IN AMERICA. Man's Own Fault if He Does Not Deserve the Title. Neither a poor man nor a rich man is or can be "a get. gel. man" in America, in the sense of the terms as used in a monarchical country or under an aristocratic system of society, says the New York Sun. The word "gentleman" is unknown in our law. In the sense of expressing moral qualities, the only sense in which it can be used here, the term "gentleman" applies, of course, to every man entitled intrinsically to receive it as a designation of courtesy; but even in that usage it is a term so vague and indefinable that it is not worth talking about. It may be said, however, never to apply properly to any American who boasts of being a "gentleman" because of any accident of his mere material circumstances, or to any American who is troubled in mind lest, on account of them, he should not receive the title. If anybody in America is not a gentleman it is als own fault. And the Earth Is Flat. And now, a distinguished woman rises in meeting to remark that the scientists don't know what they're talking about, and that the earth's perfectly flat. And Brother Dickey makes this comment: "Ef it's a 'ooman sez de earth's flat, don't dispute de question wid her—ef you don't want ter git flattened out yo'self, besides, tacklin' dese big worl-problems keeps 'um mo' quieter warthey lives at. Flat or roun'—le'm have de worl', en de sun, en de 1a0on en stars, des lak desy wants um. Amen!" In the Matter of the application of Emmia J. Omitead to register the title to the following described real estate, situated in Ramsey County Municipality, to block fourteen of Mackubin and Marshall's addition to the city of St. Paul, according to the plat thereof on file and of record in the office of register of deeds in and for said county.
