Schurz has a hard time of IL. He not

We should certainly be more inclined to

VINO was always willing to sacrifice his
principles to maintain his party allegi-
ance, and though the Secretary's indie
pendence In politics might very well dis
qualify him from participating in a
primary convention Of FOUNDERS and ro-

would care to provoke an open contest

ness to sneer at Mr.. Schurz on accoun
OF his foreign birth and his participation
In an unsuccessful though noble revolu

contempt, and the authors well deserved

A IsevOlutiOnizing Threat.

/ have heard the story as applied loose
ly, but as Jenkinson's father-in-law tells
it, has more of point and pith than in the
other cases. Jenkinson was the man
who entered the complaint. He was a
young merchant, and had marriad the
daughter of an old merchant, and said
daughter was inclined TO be headstrong
and independent, plainly giving her
liege lord to understand THAT she should
be her own mistress and do as she pleas
ed.
Jenkinson regarded this as an outrage,
and in the plentitude of his Indignation
he betook himself to his wife's father,
and there entered complaint, deep and
bitter, against the fair recusant, and, un-
fortunately. in his laundering he more
than half intimated that the girl had not
been brought up as she ought to have
been. But the old man betrayed no Ill
| feeling toward his son-in- law.

Funeral Fees.

MINISTERS who are engaged to at
tend funeral services should lie COM
pensated. Oftentimes the journey from
the residence or church to the grave
occupies several hours of valuable
time. Pastors should not be expected
to give time and toll in this depart
ment of professional service gratuit-
ously. If it is right to pay a marriage
fee. it is equally SO to pay a funeral
fee. Both forms of service are extra;
and if either should be more generous.
ly rewarded than the other, surely the
one which requires most thought, time
and exposure should claim the prefer
cnce. Of course there should be no
formal charge; in some few instances
the family which is bereaved may be
too poor to pay for ministerial attend
anoe. In such case, no true pastor
would even think of compensation, or
accept it, if proffered. But ordinarily,
we suggest the propriety and justice Of
paying the minister reasonable fee for
his services, just as the undertaken is
paid. 1t often occurs that pastors
are asked to venture through inclem-
ent weather long distances, to the neg
lect of other important duties, and to
the forfeiture of opportunities to Sc
cure needed temporal helps, to con-
duct q funeral service, and are per-
mitted to 60 home weary and unre-
warded. 1t is wrong. Methodist Re-

An Imperial Nimrod.

THE Cologne Gazette, in one Of its
last numbers, contains curious sum-
mary of the achievements of the Ger
man Emperor in the hunting-field. 1t
seems that since the year 1919, when,
ut the age of twenty-five, the Emperor,
then Prince William of Prussia, began
hunting, he kept . schiessliste, in which
he entered an accurate account of the
head of game killed by his own hand.
The list, a formidable one, commences
with bison or aurochs, a now almost
extinct animal, killed in 1919. when
hunting in the extensive domains of the
Prince of Plesz. Next comes 2 bears,
8 wolves, 779 large and 629 small boars.
II chamois, 23O stays, 278 red deer.
845 fallow deer and las does. Of
smaller game His Majesty killed 2,9O8
hares, 33 rabbits. 80 foxes, IL badgers,
go pheasants and 162 cartridges. The
total number of head Of game falling
under the gun of the German Emperor
from the commencement of 1919 till the
end of 1877 sums up at {, 1896, or roundly
1000, being at the rate of about 12O per
annum. His Majesty's long career as
sportsman, extending over very nearly
three-score years, passed not entirely
without accidents. The most serious
of these was one that happened on the
10th of December, 1919, when Prince
William, in the act of loading his gun,
while hunting with Herr Won Wulknitz
at Lanken. received q shot in the right
hand, which necessitated the amputa-
ton of the greater part Of the forefin-
ger. The spot where this accident hap
Pened is marked by three trees, planted

A Montreal CAM dispatch of the
3Oth says as section of Young Britons were
proceeding out to the western suburbs on the
morning of that day, they were attacked with
pistols by some 800 or 400 Catholic Unionist
Over 100 shots were fired, resulting in the
death of one man and serious injury to three
others
At Memphis, Tenn, on the morning
of the LIST, the tow-boat Warner, with six
barges in tow, exploded her boilers. Three
persons were killed and about dozen more
or less seriously injured.
One of the late John Morrissey's
most intimate friends and advisers stated, on
the I'd, that the entire property of the de-
ceased would realize but little over 1000,
If that much, and that the estate would not
be able to settle up the debts against it.
Minneapolis dispatches of the Sd say
the number of lives lost by the mill disaster in
that city was believed to be sixteen. The re-
mains Of seven bodies had been recovered, and
only three of them were identified. Six -four
ing mills were q mass Of ruins, and large
amount of lumber, planning mill, an elevator,
$1,000 bushels of wheat, number of railroad
cars, and several small machine shops and
other buildings were also destroyed. The
money loss was thought to be about 81 ,0OO, 900;
insurance, s550,OOO.
The Sinclair Wooden Mills, at South
Chicago, were burned, on the night of the 4th.
Loss, about $15O,OOO. About $50 persons were
thrown out Of employment.
A special from Turkish

Production and Competition Il Opium.

OPIUM is the juice of the poppy. and,
as there are many varieties of the pop
nv. SO. too, are there many kinds Of
opium; the mode Of collecting the juice
is, however, always the same. In
Egypt, Syria and India, the three coun-
tries which produce opium, number
of semicircular incisions are made in
the capsule of the poppy, and the juice
which exudes is carefully gathered.
This juice, on being dried in the sun,
becomes of q dark color, thickens and
forms a brown, firm paste; this is
opium. Laudanum is . solution of
opium in alcohol and water. Both
opium and laudanum are to be regard
ed as q mixture Of several similar but
not identical substances. Since the
time of Derosne (18O4) and Robiquet

morphine, chemists have very careiuly

The first literary effort of Flavusi
Josephus Cook has been made public
by his old teacher. 1t takes up the
subject of 1.-THE Cow" and discusses it
as follows: 1.-THE COW is good animal.
She has two horns, and two eyes, and
gives milk which is good to eat. She
has four legs and eats grass and hay.
Some cows are red, and they have long
tails.' There is very little to be said
by way of criticism Of the production,
except that it bears evidence of the
writer's immaturity. His Information
is correct, but his way Of putting it be-
trays the fact that it was written be-
fore he had become erudite and cOmpe-
tent to address q Boston audience ac-
ceptably. Doubtless he meant to say
that the female of the bovine genius is
a beneficent mammal; that this rumi-
nant quadruped is possessed Of corneous
protuberances, projecting from the Oc-
ciput, that her vision is binocular, and
that she yields an edible and nutritious
tactical oxidation; that she is quadru-
pedal and herbivorous, assimilating her
food in both the succulent and exsic-
Gated state; that some Of them chrOmat-
ically correspond to the seventh color

dowed with caudal appendages of ex-
aggerated longitudinality.- Worcester
