NUMBER 301.

In the somewhat confused discussion arising from the "Brownville affair" scant credit has been given to Mr. James Hampton Stewart, planter and cattle rafser of Uvalde County, Texas, who has offered work at from $25 to 30 a month and good hcme3 to. the discharged negro soldiers, excepting only the dozen held by the army authorities as suspects. While Mr. Stewart i3 doubtless simply seeking" to serve his own interests that makes his offer at this time f he 'more noteworthy, for it is a proof that honest industry will win a good living for the men despite their race and in the State where the prejudice of race is strong, and where the trouble occurred. Incidentally it shows also that an arbitrary discharge from the army "without honor" cannot deprive the men of the honor to which their actual fidelity in the service may entitle them from the people of the State in which they have been serving. New York Times.

According to the latest dispatches from St. Petersburg, the Russian Government has put In the form of a decree its grant of the right to peasants to abandon their respective shares in communal land, thus relieving them from responsibility for the communal taxes, and allowing them to become owners of land in fee. This would, of course, free the peasant who leaves thp commune to engage In work or trade elsewhere from the semi-bondage to which he has been subjected. The political purpose of the decree is plainly to estrange the peasants In the new Duma from the organized opponents of the Government. Whether it will do this or not depends largely on the spirit in which the decree, actually is applied, and also upon the measures taken to help peasants to avail i themselves bf the right of individual ownership. The leaders of the opposition are naturally disappointed in this new move of the Government, but if it is carried out fairly and effectively it will do much to preserve order and it will not in the long run hinder progress toward true liberty. The peasants know that it is a forced gift from the Czar, and they will not hesitate to employ the power of which they are thus made conscious New York Times.

TO TAKE ADVANCED STEP

IN RELIGIOUS EDUCATION

With the Opening of the New Sunday School Department in First English Lutheran Church, Better Instruction will be Given.

The Rev. E. G. Howard, pastor of the First English Lutheran church has given out the following statement: "With the opening of the new Sunday school department of the First Lutheran church, advanced steps will be taken in religious education. The Lutheraas have always stood for religious instruction and in harmony with their historical precedents, it Is proposed to give increased attention to this department of church work. Not only will the Sunday school be more thoroughly organized and equipIed and strengthened in every department, but catechetical instruction will receive special attention. The purpose of this phase of the work i3 to bring every candidate for membership Into h vital knowledge of the fundamental truths of the Christian religion-and to train them for intelligent Christian life and service. Classes for children under fifteen years of age will be organized on Saturday. Those having been under instruction last year meeting at' 9 a. m.. and'new scholars meeting at 10 a. m. "The rooms of the primary department now being in condition for use, the classes will meet in the same for the present. All children from 11 to 1," years of age will be welcomed. There is no special charge for such instruction. '"It is proposed to form a lecture class for adults immediately after the holidays, that all who desire to unite with the church at the Easter season may have an opportunity for necessary preparation."

joh r. stevexs. alcmg maQ who is digging "the ditch," Chief Engineer John F. Stevens, is an important personage at Panama during presidential visits or at any ether time. He can wield a big stick as effectively as even the president himself, as he has shown upon numerous occasions. He does not stand for red tape when there Is something that needs to be done on the spot. This was Illustrated about eighteen years ago, when Stevens had charge as an engineer of a railroad construction gang in the west. The work progressed satisfactorily until a fellow possessed of more enterprise than principle appeared upon the scene to profit by trading upon the rices of the laborers. He erected a rude shack and stocked It with vile whisky. The men, having no other

place in which to amuse themselves or I

spend their money, patronized the saloon so freely that the gang soon became demoralized. The saloon was not located on railroad land, so Stevens had no legal authority to rid himself of It, and expostulation with the proprietor, who was coining money faster than a government mint, was of no avail. Finally Engineer Sterens made a personal rislt to the saloon and engaged in conversation the proprietor. "When are you going to leave here?" demanded the railroad official. "When I get good and ready," was he surly response of the saloonlst. "I am going now," laconically retorted Stevens, and so saying he drew from bis pocket a mammoth dynamite

threw the missile of destruction behind the bar and ran. The saloon keeper decided that he was quite ready to go also and didn't argue the proposition. In thirty seconds the shack was blown from the face of the earth, and business was not resumed at the old 6tand.

It is unusual for an anthor to be successful in business, especially a woman author, but the clever yourg woman who wrote "Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch" Is an exception. It 15 five years since that popular story saw the light. She was then Miss Alice Caldwell Hegan, daughter of c leading Louisville family accustomed to keep

"open house" on the traditionally hospitable Kentucky plan. Her social duties left her comparatively little time for books or for indulging her aspirations for authorship, but she was considered one of the brightest members of a certain literary club in Louisville, and her

mks. gale Touifo amateur efforts led rice. to more serious work. Hence came the study of life among the simple folks of the forlorn and unbeautiful part of her own city which was destined to win for her so much popularity. It was a year after

the publication of this story and when she was about thirty-two years of age that she married Cale Young Rice, also an author, chiefly a writer of plays and poems. "Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage, Patch" brought in a good many dollars. Some of them went Into a lead mining venture In Illinois. Mrs. Rice recently disposed of part of her interest for $150,000 and with other members of her family still owns a large part of the capital stock of the

Saint Saens, Great Frenchman Now 71 Years Will be at Cincinnati This Month.

Thirty states have state railroad commissions, twenty of which have power to fix rates oa purely state traffic. Railroads running within three miles of a county seat in Oklahoma must build a line through the county seat and establish a station. A trolley company in Vermont whose cars fail to come to a full stop and display a signal at a grade railroad crossing is subject to a fine of $25 for each omission. j The Chinese appear to hare dropped all their objections to railway building and appear to be no longer alarmed lest the graves of ancestors be disturbed. The most important railway now building is that from Peking to south China, which will cover a distance of over 1,400 miles.

SCIENCE SIFTINGS.

The eminent French pianist and composer, Saint Saens, now 71 years old and who Is making his last tour, will spend six weeks in the United States and will play in music hall, Cincinnati, December 14 and 15. Probably a party of Richmond music

ians will go to Cincinnati to attend

the recital.

Charles W. Morse, once the Ice king, now the steamship king, is a financier who Is always surprising the public. His recent acquisition of the Clyde line of steamers. Including eight shfps, at a price said to be $9,000,000, makes him master of the coastwise steamship business on the Atlantic seaboard. Mr. Morse now controls nearly every line of coasting steamers from St. John, N.
