IT WAS ONLY A THICK

BISMARCK'S FR1EXDS PLAWED THE REICHSTAG IXSl'L. Artist Whistler Said to Have Challenged .Novel lltt Moore," Who Ilel used t Fight Foreign News. LONDON. March 23.-The Berlin correspondent of the Times telegraphs that it scarcely needed Emperor William's dispatch to Prince Bismarck, in which His Majesty expressed his profound indignation at the refusal of the Reichstag to authorize Herr Von Levetzow, President of that body, to congratulate Prince' Bismarck, in the name of the house, on the approaching anniversary of his birth, to give a political character to this unedifying spectacle. It is difficult to avoid the impression that Prince Bismarck's admirers set the demonstration aroot with definite, though as yet veiled-, purpose, in the same manner that they used the cry for . religion, morality or sociality order to get rid of Chancellor Von Caprivl. If they had really wished a majority in the Reichstag there is reason to believe that they could have obtained it, but for a fortnight past the press of the old Cartel parties has surpassed itself in recriminations against the Center party and the Radicals, which slowly but surely excluded every possibility; of , an amicable compromise. ; o steps were taken to endeavor to obtain any courtesy - that could not be wrung from !4kt . V. . M ... . . . I 1 T xl ' . l 1 I . xkchi uy iuictr. CTtin, me opposition iiiusi bear a share of the blame. Tne conduct of the Centrists was scarcely worthy of x powerful party. It may be assumed that the Centrists were influenced bv the unvielding attitude of Herr Richter, the Radical kader. Many persons think that Herr Richter repeated his mistake of 1893 and carried his aespotism too far. As it is the Centrists and ltadicals, in the eyes of a large part of the country, have allowed' themselves to be driven by - the machinations of their enejnies to exhibit to the world a testimonium Jpaupertatis. It would be hazardous to ven ture tne conjecture as to tne nnai object of the members of the Cartel parties. Their clamor for the dissolution of the Reichstag is a fitting sequel to their conduct as a whole, : but, the correspondent says, he knows on excellent authority that there is no inclination in influential circles to listen to this questionable advice. The vote on the resolution was not equivalent to the government defeat.; Neither the government nor the Conservatives, who are crying the loudest, have anything to gain by l dissolution of the Reichstag. It is needless to remind the Conservatives of what their position would be in a general election with the government opposing Herr Kanltz's scheme for control of the grain trade. ' II . . . V 1 ' ... lklIVIWII I ." I . ' V . L. Villi A uu. al, Socialist and Catholic papers, the whole press admits that the Reichstag, by its action lowered its prestige. It is probable that the new president of the House will be a member of the Centralists, that is the clerical party. . A dispatch to the Times from Vienna says there is a , universal expression of unmitigated indignation at the action of the German Reichstag toward Prince Bismarck. The scorn ana anger manirested ny the press is almost excessive. ; The Times in an editorial says: "Saturday's vote injures none but the Reichstag itself. The Emperoiis telegram to Prince Bismarck expresses the real sentiment of the German people who have abundant means of voicing it." . The Paris correspondent of the Times notes that the press of that citv condemns the action of the Reichstag. The feeling among Frenchmen, he says. is indicated by the immense demand of Bismarckian literature. This feeling seems to be veering largely in Bismarck's favor, and it looks as if the animosity of the two nations was giving way to a prolonged truce. HOXOIt SOT AVENGED. Whistler CltallenKe Xovellst Moore, Who Will . Not Fight. PARIS, March 24. It has developed that a week ago James McN, Whistler, the impressionist artist, challenged Mr. George Moore, the novelist, to fight a duel. Mr. Moore was the intermediary in the now more or less famous dispute between Mr Whistler and Sir William Eden, growing -out oi tne reiusai oi ine rormer to aenver .a portrait ne naa painted or sir William s wife. Lady Isabel. Mr. Moore ignored the challenge, and Mr. Whistler has written to his seconds regretting his dealings with t what he terms "a runaway." k ' BIG. GALE IN ENGLAND. H. It.

The Lockout o( Textile Workers As- .." sumlnfc an Alarming; Aspect. PROVIDENCE, R. I., March 2i.-The operatives of the Atlantic mills of Olneyvllle held a mass meeting this afternoon and discussed the lockout. All the speeches were bitter agalnsfr the mill owners, and the- meeting lasted several hours, but it was decided to delay aggressive action, as It is expected that a general strike will be ordered by the district council of textile workers within a few days. The locked out operatives are in a state bordering on riot, and it is feared that the leaders cannot keep them under control until arrangements are perfected for calling a general strike of the 6.000 textile workers in the district. Threats against the mill property are freely made and the owners are becoming uneasy. A secret meeting of the district council was held last night, but the doings became public to-day. The committee decided that the manufacturers had broken their agreement with the operatives and the time had come when they should return to the old :$criedule of wages, the reduction of which the operatives accepted under protest in 3S93. The council also agreed to call a general strike as soon as they can decide on the nature of the demand to be made, a portion of the council favoring a return to the old schedule and the remainder a compromise preposition. - i Debs's Cne tiuf li To-Day. WASHINGTON. March 24.-The habeas Corpus case of Eugene V. Debs and others.

of the American Railway Union, who were engaged in the Chicago strike of last fiummer, will be argued in the United States Supreme Court on Monday. Debs and those associated with him contend that the United States Circuit Court had no jurisdictionwhile sitting as a court of equity to restrain them by injunction In proceeding with the strike, and ask for a writ of habeas corpus for their release. The Trouble Unsettled. NEW ORLEANS, March 24. All was quiet on the levee to-day. Governor Foster has ordered the troops off the levee, thus leaving the labor troubles unsettled. However, he will hold the militia in readiness in case of disorder.

FUNERAL OF SIXTY-OXE. Ceremonies at Evanston, Wyo., Over the Victims of a Mine Disaster. EVANSTON, Wyo., March 24.-Waltcr Miller, the last of the victims of the coal mine disaster at Red Canon on the 20th, was found last night. The sixty-one who met their death the same day were laid to rest to-day with most impressive ceremonies. There were thirty-two buried from the Mormon Church alone, where the services were conducted by Bishop Bowers, of Almy, assisted by Bishop Brown,1 of Evanston, and eminent dignitaries of the Mormon Church from Salt Lake, including Franklin D. Richards, church historian; John Henry Smith, one of the twelve apostles, and Seymour B. Young and Edward Stephenson, two of the seven presi-, dents. Bishop Cluff, of Coalville, also assisted. The church is the largest in Uintah county, but was insufficient to accommodate one-third of the people who attended. It was intended to carry the coffined bodies of the dead into the church, but after thirteen had been carried in it vas found that all of them would occupv so much room that there would not be space to seat the mourners and the bodies were moved out again and arranged in rows at the side of the church. Such a scene has rarely been witnessed anywhere and it required the utmost efforts of Bishop Cluff and Apostle Smith to hush by words of comfort and consolation, the sobs of widows, mothers and children, so that the exercises might proceed. All these were buried at the Alormon Cemetery at Red Canon. ' The Fins, too, were buried from their own chapel In their own burying ground. The Rev. Leppert conducted the servlcj3 for those of the Methodist faith, the Rev. Father Fitzgerald, of the Evanston Catholic Church, for those of his faith while the Rev. F. E. Beggs, of the Methodist Church, preached the funeral sermon at the opera house over the remains of Maltby, who was buried with Masonic honors. Fred Morgan was buried by the A, O. U. W.,i of which he and Mr. Maltby were members, carrying $2,000 insurance, the only two insured out of the whole sixty-one.' Contributions are coming in, freely, and it is hoped that none of the more than three hundred almost destitute people without means of support will be permitted to suffer for the necessities of life. ITALIAN BARK SUNK. Result of n. Collision with British . Steamer Storm King-. ; LONDON, March 24. The British steamer Storm King, Captain Crosby, from Antwerp for Boston, was in collision Saturday with the Italian bark Guiseppe, Captain Taro, from Savannah, Feb. 14, for Hamburg. The accident ' occurred off Dungeness during a heavy fog. The Guise ppe was so badly . damaged that she sank, but not until the steamer had rescued her crew. The bows of the Storm King were stove In, and it was necessary for her to come to anchor. It is expected that she will have to be partially discharged in order to make repairs. The bark Andara, Captain Adams, from Tacoma, Oct. 29, for Liverpool, Is aground near Barmouth, Wales. The American line steamer Berlin, Capt. Lewis, which arrived at Southampton from New York on Friday, and sailed on her return the same day, reported that on Friday, when off Eddystone light, she ran into and sank a Plymouth trawler. There was a dense fog at the time. Two of the traw-i ler's crew were rescued by the Berlin, but the other two are supposed to have been drowned. ' CAN'T KILL JOHN L. The Big: Fellow Will Be Out Again in a. Few Days. BOSTON, March 24. John l! Sullivan, who caught a severe cold last week, which threatened to develop pneumonia, was resting comfortably to-night and Dr.. Ordway, his physician, says if he can keep the big fellow indoors for a few days longer all danger will have passed. Sullivan has been confined to his room at the house of his sister, with whom he is at present making his home, for four days and on Friday night his -condition was considered serious. Good nursng and medical attendance, he says, has put him on his feet again. With the appearance e spring Sullivan discarded his overcoat an'i the day after the KilrainO'Donnell figh, at which he became greatly excited, he complained of feeling ill. Dr. Ordway was called in at the suggestion of Sullivan's sister, but he had to talk to the ex-champion three hours before he convinced him that he was sick enough to go to bed. Sullivan was able to sit up for four hours in bed to-day and says that he will get out into the sunshine in a ; day or two. Corbettls Sorry. NEW YORK. March 24. It was reported to-night that John L. Sullivan was dying in' Boston. . Champion James J. Corbett was seen and when told of the report he said: . - , "I can hardly believe it is true, for I had a telegram this afternoon saying that there was no danger of Sullivan's death. Poor John. He was his worst enemy. But -with all that he was the best man of his time. He was the greatest lighter in his time that ever lived. He was an older than I am and I am content to represent my time; let him have all the credit for his. The only trouble with Sullivan was that be did not know how to take care of himsel. If he had taken care of himself he would have been as good a man to-day as he ever was. I remember the night I knocked him out in New Orleans. I was glad to win, but when I saw Stullivan lying In the ring there, I felt awfully sorry for h'.m and the thought came into my mind that some day 1 would be In the same position myself. You can say that I am sorry for Sullivan's condition ; more than words can express." " BEAT WORLD'S RECORD. Allan Jones Wheels n, Quarter nt San Jose in 42 1-5 Second. SAN JOSE, Cal., March 24.

The watch has been identified by young Keller's father as that worn by his eon when he left home. An Old Church Anniversary. HIXGHAM. Mass.. March 24. The 150th anniversary of the foundation of the Second Parish Unitarian Church was. celebrated tonight in the meeting house which was erected in 1742, and which is one of the oldest churches in New England. Ex-Governor Ixng, Rev. Mlnott J. Savage, of Bostan, Rev. T. C. Billings, the pastor, and several other clergymen made addresses. An excellent use for checked crash Is in making kitchen aprons. We somehow have the idea if an apron is for the kitchen it must necessarily be of either dark gingham or calico, or something wholly unattractive. As a matter of fact, a neat person will not wear a kitchen apron after it is soiled and dark material keeps clean no longer than llghttt only conceals its unclean cpndltion longer. There is . no reason then why a kitchen apron should not be attractive as well as useful.

WABASH, Ind., March 24. There is a commotion in political circles in this county growing out of the peculiar methods of the County Commissioners in awarding bridge contracts, and Republicans as well as Democrats are condemning the course of the board In this particular. For several years a concern at Muncie, Ind., has had a practical monopoly of bridge construction In Wabash county. The law which requires that proposals sha'.l be invited for all bridges estimated to cost more than $500 each, has been studiously ignored and large sums have been paid for bridges purchased of, the Muncie establishment without competition. There are now outstanding about $20,000 of bridge wan-ants issued to this company and which were sold to local banks, and the proposition to award the contract to the same concern for a hew doubletrack bridge in this city, to cost $30,000, without a thorough examination of the one It was intended to replace and without soliciting bids, has aroused much indignation. The Democratic organ on Friday published a two-column article in which it boldly charged that the commissioners were receiving bribes from the Muncie concern and claims that one of the commissioners whose earthly possessions consist of fortythree acres of land, has, within two years paid off an $300 mortgage, having no other source of income. It is also alleged that drafts in sums varying from $50 to $100 drawn by the bridge company in favor of one of the board have been frequently cashed by him at a bank in the county. Republicans are demanding that the commissioners take immediate action to clear themselves of the accusations or resign. So far. the commissioners have paid no attention to the newspaper accusations.

MURDERED BY A MOD. Fate of a. Nonunion Glass Worker . from Dunkirk, Ind. TARENTUM, Pa., March 24. Kerney Sutton, a nonunion glass-worker from Dun--kirk, Ind., was murdered here last night by a mob.

Charles Mangum, a . wealthy young farmer appeared at the county clerk's office yesterday and throwing down a marriage license demanded back the money he had paid for it when he took it out on the 19th of last February for the purpose of marrying Miss Laura Halderman, aged eighteen. He explained that she had promised to marry him, had set the day and told him to procure the license, but that when he had subsequently presented himself to her with the document she had changed her mind for some reason unknown to him and refused to carry out her part of the contract. He had kept the license in the hope that she would retract, but as she gave no promise of doing so he wanted to return the license and get his money back. The license clerk explained that goods sold at that establishment jare never exchanged nor taken back. v Jeff Powell Captured. Special to the. Indianapolis Journal. LEBANON, Ind., March 24.

Another week of the Morrison ; will case has gone without the situation being changed in the least. The defense is introducing from five to six witnesses daily, and they are now hard at work preparing a hypothetical question to be propounded to their expert witnesses. It is not likely that the question will be asked for two or three weeks yet, but as the question must embrace much of the defendant's evidence, it is bei,ng prepared. . Jt will be no less in length than the question propounded by the plaintiffs to their experts, and which requires over three hours in the reading. General Harrison is expected to return tomorrow. ; South Bend Wife One of the Victims. MILWAUKEE, Wis., March 24. Mrs. Albert W. Peak, of South Bend, Ind., who was married here in 1892, began an inquiry through an attorney to get proof of her marriage, and it developed that Justice Harrington, now dead, had failed to record 150 certificates of marriages he had performed, and a doubt has arisen as to their legality. The weddings were performed in 1892, and during the world's fair when hundreds of people came to Milwaukee to be married. The justices and preachers are obliged to pay a small fee to record the marriages and it seems that a number of clergymen have also been neglectful of this duty. - Telephone Competition nt Richmond. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. RICHMOND, lnd., March 24. It now more than ever looks a3 if Richmond would have a telephone war in earnest. Since the Harrison people have been granted a franchise the Central Union Company has made some general reductions on the metallic circuit and lines to neighboring towns, and it is understood that they will attempt to head off all competition by cutting the price on long distance service and furnishing that almost exclusively. It is also stated on good authority that the Phoenix National Telephone Company, cf Indianapolis, w ill ask the city for a franchise. - Regarded with Suspicion. Special to the Indianapolis Journal.

Twenty little San Francisco children are -studying metaphysics. They are banded together for that avowed purpose under the name of the Spiritual Kindergarten, theonly one of its kind in the world, and the' organization of Mrs. Irene Plunkett, of this city. The object of the class of tiny seekers after knowledge is to not only increase their fund of wisdom in a general way, but to study ''spiritual law in the natural world" which phraseology the little creatures insist upon using, and which, perhaps, best explains their exalted motives. There are twenty of these little folks, ranging from five years old up, and since the inception of the idea, less than a year ago, the class has grown to its present proportions. The personnel of the Spiritual Kindergarten is Florence and Jennie Jackson, Arthur and Flora Davis. Edna Funke, Edna and Clara Morrow, Emma Schultz. Mercedes Burnham, Paul Plunkett and Stanley Dawson, also Flossie Davis, May Smith and others. They meet once a week at 518 Eddy, at the house of their teacher, Mrs. Plunkett, and there engage in the solemn consideration of subjects usually discussed by earnest women and bearded men with shaven upper lips speculations and assertions about the soul and their "being" and -the way to learn about the "higher life," and more that the uninitiated would not grasp. They are following out their plan rather simply now, owing to the smallness of the class, but in time hope to see their . kindergarten become an annex to the general kindergarten system in the city and elsewhere.' To the general system it will sustain the relation of advanced class. And It is advanced enough in all conscience enough so to make a chance hearer of their discourses actually ashamed of his ignorance. In fact, it would not do for a vain person to come into comparlsoa with these precocious little philosophers with , their high-sounding terms and their scrutinizing eyes. For they are taught to make the most of every faculty they have, and able to disconcert many a person who prides himself on some few fragments of knowledge. Sunday is the day generally chosen for a meeting of the baby metaphysicians, and they are never happier, so their parents say, than when they are studying the great subject. They prepare papers, which they read aloud to their fellow-members, and they recite poems and tell stories based on the facts they have learned throughout the week. They sometimes write essays and deliver "lectures," their teacher says, upon the animal kingdom, or upon moral subjects, following up their oral exercises with questions and answers on the somewhat ponderous problems in which they have chosen to interest themselves. Their lessons are conducted upon the lines of what the older 'classes learn, made plain through symbols and examinations suited to their years. Nuts, fruits, animals, pictures of the same, and moral attributes of the human beings are made the centers of interest, and from these are drawn all the subjects of their talks. They are to get the idea of the single purpose of the universe, in the. form of the .tree with its branches, leaves, and flowers, all taking their life from a common , center. They are shown the characteristics of birds and flowers and have their own human failings and virtues pointed out through this object lesson. Tney are taught a great many simple and beautiful truths in a very tender way, and they are growing wiser and better for it every day, their mothers say, although some of it may be incomprehensible to them. In fact, the study of truth is one of the terms of their sometimes strange jargon. But it is certain they are learning nothing harmful or useless from the pleasant-voiced little Spanish woman who takes them in charge and who is giving them mothering, unconsciously, as much as she is giving them metaphysics. They have cards and cards of seeds that they know the names of, and they cannot only do this, but they can draw some really moral lessons from the same thing, thus going a step higher than the same general system of child culture practiced in the public schools. And their , parents say they grow more loving and wise under this study of spiritual things, which they do not want confounded with soiritualism. They use no books, only pictures and oral lessons from the teacher, who draws a spiritual parallel from every stem, claw, root and bead of their school furnishings. The prodigy of the class is a little bit of a girl, one of the smallest members, who is -called the theosophlst, a young person of advanced views, and who informs you that "karma" is "cause and effect," and can illustrate her meaning, moreover. She insists that she is undergoing a reincarnation now and that she was once a man, "because she wants to ride a boy's bicycle all the time." She is a comical little creature, who evidently has profited somewhat by the method of drawing out the imagination and developing the individuality employed in the class to which she belongs. In spite of all this application to a somewhat obstruse - subject the little metaphysicians the youngest in the world are! healthy, normal boys and girls and just as fond of whispering and nudging and stepping on one another's toes as other children. They may be a little old-fashioned, but they are natural and unaffected. H17XTIXG TRUFFLES. A Form of Sport That Is Growing In FiiTor in England. Longman's Magazine. Were the Anti-sporting League to succeed in stopping the slaughter of all wild animals it is consoling for the sportsman to remember that there will yet remain at .least one out-of-door pastime that preserves the best features of his amusement, and to which the most virtuous philanthropist can take no exception. Instead of shooting pheasants or chasing the fox he may go out and hunt truffles. This amusement will provide him with abundant exercise among the autumn and winter woods, whose unequaled tints lend half their charm to ordinary open-air pastimes. It furnishes full opportunity for what hunting men call pretty hound work, even though the "hounds" are only half-bred poodles, and the sport demands a' wood-lore all its own. No bloodshed Is involved, and the conscience is untroubled by any thought of wounded bird or beast - creeping away afterwards to pine and die.' The very dogs are trained and worked exclusively by kindness. Surely, then, it is an Inocuous, most gentle and pleasing sport, well fitted to amuse those who love to be in the fields, and yet shrink from bloodshed. In a word, it is an ideal amusement for vegetarians. Within the past few years a number of amateurs have acquired truffle dogs for the sake of the amusement, and of these a considerable proportion, probably a majority, are ladles. But any one wishing to fcee how it is done ought, nevertheless, to go to a professional a man who, as a rule, is so dependent on a full bag that he does not view his calling as a diversion. No one could earn his entire livelihood from it. The season begins ostensibly in October and lasts till March; but ripe truffias are often found in September, and they begin to grow scarce after Christmas, so that it may be said to last about four months. In Dorset and Surrey there are men who earn a little by truffle hunting, but the most regular practitioners of the craft belong to Wiltshire. Tradition says that a Spaniard introduced the art to Winterelow about three centuries ago, and that village has ever since practically supplied the English truffle market. The Frenchman with his pig finds most of his truffles under the oak-shadows, but the Englishman "best ground is below the beach trees. Only under one species of oak the holly or everygreen variety do they grow in this country. Next to tie beech come the lime and cedar, and they are occasionally obtained in a hazel copse when the twigs are bare and the leaves rotting. The "hazel" truffle is scarce, but it is said to have a peculiarly fine flavor. No truffles grow under any coniferous tree other than the cedar, nor in any damp; sour soil. It is useless to seek them near reeds, rushes and ferns, or where gorse U

plentiful. In very light sandy ground they do not grow much larger than marbles, and they do not flourish in a strong clay or stiff loam. AMOXG LES MISERAHLES. Pathetic Scene of Youth and Old Age in a Public Hospital. Washington Post. ' From time to time some very sad scenes occur in the city hospitals, and especially In the free wards, for what combination of adversities can suggest more human misery than poverty and sickness? A pathetic scene was enacted the other day In the female free ward of the Garfield Hospital in which the principal actors were an old woman of nearly eighty years, bent with age and J disease, and pinched with poverty, and a little girl of two years. The little one, whose Hp was deformed by nature, had been placed In the ward some weeks ago to be prepared for the operation of splicing her lip. Prior to the operation she had become the pet of the doctors, nurses, and patients of the ward alike, and the light of the sick room. Her deformity made her ugly, but her face was kind and her case was touching to all from the fact the operation she was to endure was painful, and she was there in a free ward away from parents and relatives, among strangers, and too young to realize what she was there for. She never cried, nor even talked, but silently moved about the ward, when she was allowed to be out of bed. with a big scrap book, which was her only plaything, and made friends with all the patients. One day the nurse took her little hand and she was led to the operating room, willingly and unknowingly. When she awoke on her bed after the operation her face was sore and covered with plasters, and she cried , a little, but when the lip was trimmed up she grew better day by day and was soon allowed to be dressed and up again. Then she looked up her scrap book and renewed her welcome visits to the sick. No one came to see her, but she went from bed to bed through the ward and entertained the patients who also seemed to have no visitors as best she could by showing them the pictures in her scrapbook. One day the old patient above mentioned hobbled into the ward unattended by any one but the hospital attendant from the main door. She was placed in one of the white beds that line along the wall where she remained for several days, like all old patients, unnoticed as much as possible by any one. The little tot saw her as she rambled about the ward from bod to bed, as she had done since her arrival there, but the old woman was so drawn and wrinkled that she frightened her and for a long time she did not visit her bed as she did the others. As the days went by no one came to see the old woman and so the little one mustered up her book and crawled up on the old woman's bed. The old woman was too feeble to notice her and the little one was too young to know that she was not noticed, so she sat there for two hours and turned over the pictures to entertain the old woman. There was a vast space between their lives at?d yet they were both practically in the same position, one life was budding In a free ward and one life was fading in a free ward, and thus they both fell asleep. CHIVALRY FOR GIRLS. They, na Well -as Boys, Xeed Lessons in , Gentle Behavior. The Outlook. We have for generations trained our boys in a sense of the obligation of the strong to the weak, and therefore in chivalry toward women. Perhaps because we have supposed that nothing could be weaker than women, we have failed, I fear, to impress the same lesson on our girls. It is an idea which rarely occurs to a woman that in most of her dealings with men the advantage lies with her, and that, in case of small hostilities, her foe, despite superiority in bodily strength, Is bound hand and foot before her. The use of physical force in case of a disparity of strength has been so long and universally condemned that as against this a woman may rest secure in the protection afforded by her own weakness. But, if a man be in any sense : a gentleman, the habit which makes it Impossible to strike a woman literally, makes it as impossble metaphorically. In response to insults of manner and of speech his tongue is as completely tied as his hands would be if a woman Blapped him in the face. I have lately had occasion to compare the experiences of men and women who have taught in one cf our first colleges for women. Without exception, the women tell me that their treatment 4at the hands of their classes has been uniformly considerate and kind. Some of them were very young women, whose timidity and inexperience would have made them helpless under any other treatment. But the men, almost without exception, have gained their position with their class at the cost of weeks of humiliation; and, what is worse, the more finely organized and chivalrous the man - Is, the more prolonged and stinging is his trial. Yet college girls are presumably a picked class of women. In a certain large city bank is a special window for the transaction of business with women. And duty at that window is the, dread of all the employs not, as one of them told me, because of the unbusinesslike habits of women, but because, to use his boyish phrase, "they're always blowing you up, and because they're women you've got to take It." , Enough has been said and written of the unkindness of women to their own sex, so that any woman who fails in that respect sins against the light. But the women and glrl3 who are guilty of actual cruelty toward men are generally neither cruel nor cowardly. They have never appreciated their own strength and the obligation which strength entails. SITE OF CALVARY. Generally A reed that It Is the Knoll Outside of the Damascus Gate. New York Ledger. ' As regards the site of Calvary, it has now been generally agreed by those who fell that the traditional site stands In too central a position to answer to the New Testament requirements that the most probable situation is the knoll outside the Damascus Gate, which the Jews point out as the ancient place of execution. Christ suffered "without the gate" (Heb. xill, 12), and "nigh to the city" (John, xix, 20), where was a garden (verse 41) such as Josephus describes north of Jerusalem (5 Wars, ii, 2), having in it a new tomb. The site of crucifixion was conspicuous fromfome distance (Mark xv. 40; Luke xxiii. 49). and there is no doubt that the traditional site of execution, on Its high knoll, with a natural ampitheater of flat slopes to the west, is one peculiarly suited for a public spectacle.' Since this view was advocated in 1S7 ("Tent Work In Palestine"), on account of the tradition which was then for the first time published and compared with the account in the Mishnah (Sanhedrim vi, 1-4), on which it is founded, and since the discovery was subsequently accepted by General Gordon, it has become widely- popular In England and America; and It has been pointed out that the same site was advocated by Otto Thenlus in 1849 and Felix Howe in 1871; but these earlier writers knew nothing of the Jewish tradition connecter. with the spot, and their suggestions were, ' therefore, purely conjectural. - Gold In California. New York Evening Post. California is being literally squeezed for gold just now. Not only are the old diggings In Calaveras and a score of other counties worked over for the precious dust, but the vpry shore along the ocean In sight of San Francisco is being searched for It. The black sand undoubtedly contains particles of gold, but the problem hitherto has been to hit on a device that would separate or extract the minute grains from the mass of sand. A new machine, which is called the "amalgamator" it is the invention of a Boise miner does this. Two camps are already using the amalgamator within a few miles of Sutro Heights, and It is working so satisfactorily that all San Francisco has caught the new gold fever, and .it is said the whole ocean front for miles up and down will soon be dotted with mining "outfits." An expert reports that the sand pays $2.50 a ton. One party of eight men with an amalgamator extracted about $400 worth of gold in as many day's -labor, and another camp has done still better, having realized nearly $1,000 In two weeks. The amalgamator with which such results are obtained is an odd-looking contrivance built of wood, seven or eight feet long and scarcely more than two feet high. The sand Is fed Into a hopper, in a revolving cylinder, with a number of catch-pockets attached to it. Under the cylinder quicksilver attracts the gold, and leading away from it are plates of silver, over which the water and pulp sand are carried. The "pulp" sand is the detritus, or that from which the gold has been extracted. Only a small force of men is required to set up an amalgamatar camp; two to shovel and wheel the sand, two to look sfter the machine and one man to cook. Water for

washing the sand . is . vmPl up from the sea by an electrical engine. The whole outfit costs about $500.

Returned the Compliment. Gardiner Reporter-Journal. One seldom hears a story more piquantly flavored with the real old New England humor than that told about Uncle Gideon Goodwin, who, eighty years ago. was one of the characters of the town. At that time the Methodists used to gather at the houses to hold their prayer meetings, and as Gideon was a devout worshipper of that creed he was a regular attendant. On night the meeting was held at the house of Harlow Harden, and Gideon was there. In those days excitement ran high, end Just as- the enthusiasm of the. assemblage was wrought to the highest pitch. Uncle Harden, as he was always called, arose to his feet and, lifting up his h&nd, shouted In a voice full of fevor: "Glory to Gideon!" Hardly had the chorus of amens which this utterance called forth died away, when Goodwin, who thought that the praise was meant for him, and was bound to return the compliment. Jumped up and said: "Glory to you, too, Uucle Harden!" That broke up the meeting. The solemnity of the occasion, so throughly shaken, could not be restored and there was a speedy adjournment. . The Coming: Woman. New York Commercial Advertiser. An old New York clubman made a predlcI tlon the other night which astonished his ! hearers at a prominen. club up town. "I believe," said he. "that all the leading clubs will soon provide restaurants and parlors : for ladies, and I prophesy that in a few years, the women will go to the clubs to lounge at night Just as the men do now. The old fashion of calling upon one's friends at night has already died out, and nothing has taken its place. It used to be the rule that if I wanted to pay my respects to a friend's family I could call after dinner and spend an hour or two In that way. No one , does that now. If I want to make a family call now I must wait for an Invitation to dinner, and In my turn I invite to dinner those whom my wife and I are desirous of seeing. After dinner we spend that hour or two with our friends which we once enjoyed with them by calling upon them after a dinner at our own homes." Best He Could Do. Telegraph Age. A telegraph editor In a Boston newspaper ornce wrote a note of remonstrance to the telegraph operator, because the latter In his copy had entirely omitted the letters "f" and "k" . where they should have appeared. The operator replied to this note as follows: "Mr. Editor: Mistaques are liable to happen In the best of regulated phamliles, and to typewriters as well. 'It is, indeed, a very unphortunate affair, but the 'eph and 'cay phell out and are lost.

Logan. . ; Kipling m lie li. ' The Bookman. ' Rudyard Kipling's somewhat' saturnine reputation In Brattleboro society is offset by the description of one who saw him at a 'little hotel in Gloucester last summer. There he showed himself most modest. Ingenuous and companionable. He read some vijpublished jungle stories to the guests, and not only entertained, but gave himself up agreeablto entertainment. He was especially pleased by the performances in negro dialect of a Southern girl. One song, an almost incommunicable jargon, he got her to repeat, and the next day, when every one else had quite forgotten it, he surprised the company by singing the dltfy from beginning to end with a aly twinkle and thf drollest imitation. . The "Poorest Preacher. Christian Advocate. . ' ; Some one sent us a check for $5 "to ba given to the poorest preacher in the Northwest." We forwarded it to Rev. Dr. Huntington, of Nebraska, for designation, and after a time received from the ultimate re- ' clplent the following note: "l do not know how it came to me, but 1 think It. reached home when it got here, for it found mc without a cent. I thought I was the one it was intended for, and did not send It any furthr. Accept my thanks for the favor." Wbittler Theolojo. I am not a Unlversalist. for I believe in the rossibiltty of the perpetual loss of the oul that nerslstently turns away from God. in the next life as in this. But I do believe that the Divine love ami compaxfsion follow us in all worlds, and that the Heavenly Father will do the best that Is possible for every creature he has male. What that will be must be left to his Infinite wisdom and goodness. Schwler Still Alive. Christian H.
