DIR. HARRISON, chaplain of the House
of Representatives, has been writing
series of keen and delightful letters
on European travel to the Atlanta
Constitution. From Florence he writes:
There are rumors and stories of troubles
not q Few In the Italian air. One report Is,
that n serious riot occurred ut Rome few
evening ago. and that the people OF that
Pope must change his place of residence.
One Italian paper picked up asks the per-
nnent tn tent question = II papa goes to Fr'nee
publics" The Italian government appears
TO be eminently wise and conservative,
but pressure may be brought to bear which
the mild and rather indolent King Hum
bert may find impossible to resist. One
thing Is evident here, the growth of n
strong and bitter national feeling against
the French.
The antipathy felt by the Italian masses
toward the French is sort of family heir
loom, and will probably never be healed
From the days Of Charlemagne down to our
time, the Popes have crawled behind the
protection of the Fleur-de.L Lis when at
tackled, and Italy fails to appreciate this
guardianship.
THE HOLY MAN of Kairwan, the sacred
city Of North Africa, Is Marabout of ap-
proved sanctity. He bears the effective
name Of 81 Ahmed el Hadi, but in previous
states Of existence he has been Trappist, a
Carthusian, and Mormon of Salt Lake.
He declares that in Islam he has at length
realized the ideal that he has sought so
long, and now rests in the blcssedness of
perfect peace. He is, however, regular
radical, and publicly proclaims And upbraids
the laxity of the Mohammedan officials.

Heroes of the Plains.

In American history there are no more in
teresting figures than the Heroes OF the Dor
der Bold, & .shing, adventurous and patri-
otto; loyal to friends, to country and to the
interests Of society, their work was singular
ly effective in the advancement OF western
civilization. With seeming recklessness,
their efforts were in the interests of law and
order. and the people owe them a debt of
gratitude they do not forget. Their page in
history is as fascinating as it is honorable,
and there is a peculiar pleasure in reading
the narrative of their wonderful exploits
Among those whose careers were singularly
adventurous, are Kit Carson, Wild Bill,
Buffalo Bill, Capt Payne, Texas Jack, Cali
fornia Joe, Capt. Jack and others whose
achievements have made them justly and
widely famous. They have warm place in
the hearts OF the people, and prominent
one in their admiration. 1t is appropriate
that their achievements should be recorded !,
and we note with pleasure the Forthcoming
of new book from the press of N. ID: Thomp-
son 4 Co, st. Louis, Mo-, called "THE He
RoEs OF THE PLAINS" covering the ground of
