An Indian chieftainess, usually known by the name of ‘Queen Esther.’ She is reputed to have been the granddaughter of Count de Frontenac, and became the wife of Eghobund, a chief of the Senecas. Owing to her strength of mind, she gained great influence among her people. She several times visited Philadelphia with the delegates of the Six Nations, and is said to have comported herself on such occasions with dignity and good manners. Despite some good qualities, however, she was at heart a savage, and in the Wyoming massacre of July, 1778, tomahawked more than a dozen helpless prisoners in revenge for the death of her son, who was killed the day before.

# The New International Encyclopædia/Kohlrausch, Friedrich

KOHLRAUSCH, kōl'roush, Friedrich (1840—). A German physicist, born at Rinteln, the son of Rudolf Hermann Arndt Kohlrausch. His education was obtained at Erlangen and Göttingen. In 1866 he became professor at Göttingen, and subsequently was appointed to chairs at Zurich(1870), Darmstadt (1871), Würzburg (1875), and Strassburg (1888). In 1895 he was appointed president of the Imperial Physico-Technical Institute (Reichsanstalt) at Charlottenburg, near Berlin, and under his direction the work of this bureau has been widely extended and developed. Professor Kohlrausch has a brilliant record as an experimental physicist and has devised new apparatus and methods for measurements. His researches have embraced all departments, but those dealing with electricity and magnetism are of special importance. He has investigated most thoroughly the subject of electrolysis and has brought out new methods for the absolute measurement of resistance. The elasticity of solids and various problems in light have also been investigated by him, and he is the author of Leitfaden der praktischen Physik, which, published in 1872, has been issued in many editions and translated into English, being considered the standard work on physical laboratory methods and measurements. A ninth edition, enlarged and revised, was published in 1901 with the title of Lehrbuch der praktischen Physik. A more elementary work based on the above, Kleiner Leitfaden der praktischen Physik, has also appeared. Professor Kohlrausch is besides the author of Ueber den absoluten Leitungswiderstand des Quecksilbers (1888), and of many papers contributed to the Annalen der Physik und Chemie, and other scientific journals.

# The New Exodus

By fire and cloud, across the desert sand, And through the parted waves, From their long bondage, with an outstretched hand, God led the Hebrew slaves!
Dead as the letter of the Pentateuch, As Egypt's statues cold, In the adytum of the sacred book Now stands that marvel old.
"Lo, God is great!" the simple Moslem says. We seek the ancient date, Turn the dry scroll, and make that living phrase A dead one: "God was great!"
And, like the Coptic monks by Mousa's wells, We dream of wonders past, Vague as the tales the wandering Arab tells, Each drowsier than the last.
O fools and blind! Above the Pyramids Stretches once more that hand, And tranced Egypt, from her stony lids, Flings back her veil of sand.
And morning-smitten Memnon, singing, wakes; And, listening by his Nile, O'er Ammon's grave and awful visage breaks A sweet and human smile.
Not, as before, with hail and fire, and call Of death for midnight graves, But in the stillness of the noonday, fall The fetters of the slaves.
No longer through the Red Sea, as of old, The bondmen walk dry shod; Through human hearts, by love of Him controlled, Runs now that path of God!
# The New Fiction

Little Blue-Fits has lost his wits, And doesn't know where to find them; Leave them alone and they'll come home, And leave their tales behind them.
The remarkable tales, with remarkable sales, And Bonnets and Bees in disorder; For the Bonnets we view are exceedingly Blue, And decidedly over the Border.
# The New Europe (The Slav Standpoint)/Foreword

FOREWORD.
This book has a long history. It was originally written more than a year ago in Russia, during the revolutionary disorders; my intention was to make clear to our soldiers the fundamental problems of the war. To our soldiers this book was dedicated.
I turned over the manuscript to a Russian publishing house, but I doubt that the book could have been published in Russia then. In the meantime I had to leave Russia for the West; on the journey through Siberia and across the Pacific I worked over a part of my manuscript into this book, which I now lay before the Anglo-Saxon public. I wrote without being able to consult the vast literature on the subject; only during the last revision of the manuscript could I make use of some American literature. But I repeat that my object was solely to discuss some of the fundamental problems raised by the war.

The chief object of this undertaking was the development of the fur trade with Russian America. In connection therewith the Government dispatched an embassy for the restoration of trade relations with Japan, in which purpose it was unsuccessful. The interesting geographical discoveries of Krusenstern made his voyage very important for the progress of geographical science. This voyage, in which he was the first Russian to circumnavigate the world, Krusenstern later described in his Journey Around the World (1810-12, with an atlas of 104 plates; English translation, 1813), which waa soon translated into all the principal languages of Europe.
