Shortly before seven o'clock last
evening word was brought to tho police
station requesting that officers be sent
down to boarding house on French
street, below Third, to arrest man
who was crazy with RIM. Two officers
were detailed to 60 down and bring the
man up. They found him In the
house, acting in wild manner. They
brought him up French street about q
square without much trouble, when all
of q sudden he let on to be sick, and
raved like a maniac. A wheelbarrow
was procured and he was placed upon
it. He soon recovered from his sudden
illness, jumped up and started to run,
but the officers grabbed him. He was
. tough customer, however, and the
aid of several citizens was called,
whereupon he commenced to bite, aud
was as savage as rabid dog. With
the combined effort Of six men he was
lodged in the cells. He was brought
up for a hearing this morning on the
charge of being drunk and di.orderly.
He was deaf and dumb, but signed his
name George w. Robinson. He il an
old gray. haired man of respectable ap-
pearanoe. A number of letters were
found upon his person, which were got
up In good style, for the purpose OF vic
They were arranged In the shape of a
subscription list, with an appropriate
heading on each. One of tho letters
was addressed TO the General foreman,

road shops, presenting II pitiful tale,
stating that he was u machnist by
trade, had been injured on the Central
Vermont Railroad several years ago;

stated that they were in want, and If he
could not procure work, would they aid
him by presenting his statement before
the work:ngmen in order that they
would contribute money to enable HIM
to go to Cincinnati, Ohio. He also had
9th papers addressed to different
branches of business, claiming a differ
cnt trade in each letter AnoUg the
trades that he is most familiar with is
that of a machinist, engineer, pudler,
and heater, educated man and clerk,

business. This morning he addressed

ging to be let of, A boy, about fifteen
years Of age, claiming TO be his son,
acted as spokesman for his father. II
appears from the boys statement tha,

The Trouble in Egypt.

The explanation of the emeute in Egypt
limited at in last weeks Christian U1aio7, il con.
frmed by later advices The Immediate pro.
vocation was the decision of Riaz Pacha. the
President of the Council, an Office in Egvpt an.
swering to that of Prime Minister in England,
to transfer one of the native regiments to AL
exandria. The troops. therefore, demanded the
dismissal of the ministry asserting that Egypt
was sold to England an assertion not far from
the truth. Report has it that the leader of the
instruction has sent detachment to close the
Suez Canal against English war vessels and
given notice that the first attempt to occupy the
country by foreign troops will be signal for a
general massacre of all the foreign Christians
but it is not safe at such time to believe ali
reports. For some years France and England
have practically controlled all expenditures and
taxation in Egypt, through Board of Control
consisting of one French and one English official
The finances of the government have been ad
ministered, the revenues collected. the taxes
approved, the accounts kept, and all important
pecuniary engagements controlled by the foreign
Board, who, 1T Is hardly necessary to add. have
managed the finances of Egypt not in the in
terest of the Egyptians but in that of the for
eign bond holders. This meeting is a natural
uprising of a native soldery who refuse to allow
themselves longer to be used as instruments for
ro6bing their own land to pay French and Eng
llsh capitalists 1t is an emeute by overtaxed
labor against foreign capital. There are rumors,
which, however, we do not credit that French
agents have stirred up the instruction, hoping
to make it an occasion for assuming a sole pro.
tectorate. Turkey, it is reported, refuses to in
terfere she has all she can do to take care of her
own interests. Possibly combined occupation
by France and England will be the result. in
which case a natural sequence to the underlined
and unpublished treaty between the three re-
presentatives of absolutism-the Emperors of
Russia, Germany and Austria-would be an
alliance between the two great free governments
OF Europe, France, and England. For the time
being the Egyptian army IS in absolute control
Of Egypt, and The Kbedve is practically pri-
soner in his own palace Christian Union.

The Pope's Dilemma

The London Saturday r euietO has the follow
ing on the present unhappy predicament and
waning fortunes of the Pope:
while the Pope was still reigning SOW.
erelgn, otficlous Protestant advisers not unfre-
quently assured him that his influence over the
faithful would be increased by resignation of
his secular prerogative. Since he has been
forced to submit to the result of their con-
descending counsels he has found, as more
sagacious observers anticipated, that his spiri.
tual authority collapses almost as rapidly as his
temporal power. Austria is united in close al.
lance with the prosecuting Government of Ber
lin; the Subalpine King, as Plus TX. with
feminine spite, delighted to call him, holds his
court on the left bank of the Tiber. Spain has
formally disclaimed any purpose of defending
which used to be called the eldest born Of the
Church. the clergy have lost all political power.
1t would be suicidal mistake to renounce the
security OF the treaty or statute which is known
as the Law OF Guarantees 1t is true that the
Italian Government has culpably neglected to
afford the protection which was due on the oc-
casion OF the late funeral procession; but it
would be poor revenge to resign the RIGHTS
which are acknowledged, though thew have
been unduly withheld. Within his own palace
and its precincts the Pope is still nominafly in
dependent and sovereign. Elsewhere he would
be a subject or a resident foreigner, with no
claim to rank or pre- eminence except by the
courtesy of the local authorities. 1t is doubtful
whether the large revenue which the Pope de-
rlves from the contributions of the faithful
would be forthcoming if Catholic liberality
were required to flow in unaccustomed chan
nels. In the so-called ages of faith the Popes
who resided at Avignon, though in their own
territory. were regarded with diminished rever-
ence. There is now no possibility of acquiring
Papal appanage on either side of the Alps
and Pope cannot afford to subsde into the
rank Of a private person."

ought to be9 Are we holy people? If
not (and perhaps not), how can we expect
God to listen to our cry the moment we
get into difficulty?
But even the prayers of the righteous
are not always specifically answered.
Paul tells us: " For this thing 1 besought
the Lord thrice, that it might depart from
me. And he said unto me, NV grace is
sufficient for thee"
Did Paul say, "This is a severe trial
