American Colleges in the Orient.

The Hon. William Walter Phelps, Oh
hisreturn from recent visit to the East,
gave 10 the government the following
testimony to the influence of American
education in developing among the ORR
entail nations high regard for our own
country and everything that bears its
name:
''Among she influences which have
produced sentiment so marked and so
fattering mustplace first the education
given by the American colleges and the
character and labors of the American
missionary. On the most conspicuous
site on the Bosphorus stands Robert
College, and ON rocky point, seen by
the mariner long before the minarets and
roofs OF the surrounding city of Beirut,
stands the Syrian Protestant College.
Both institutions are founded by Ameri-
can munifcence; and no youth who
seeks here liberal education, fails to
recognize that the privilege of library,
dormftory, lecture and classroom, ground
and hall is the unselfish gift of Western
philanthropy. The College of Beirut,
under the influence of great demand,
has gathered around itself the ordinary
departments of a university. These de-
partments, like the parent college, are
housed in stone, and the stately struct-
ures suggest that the learning, for which
they exist, has come to stay. It is diff
fcult to overestimate the influence
welded by the lawyer, the doctor, the
engineer, the teacher, the scholar, who
returns from these walls to his home in
Bulgaria, Syria, Arabia and Egypt. He
left it poor native boy; he returns to
WELD the power of education among the
illiterate; and never fails gratefully to
remember and eloquently to tell story
30 full of honor to America"

Shaving From House To House.

81 suppose I'm what would be called
an oscillating tonsoral artist" The
speaker was a well-dressed man of 80,
carrying in his hand little leather bag.
''Haven't you any shop?" asked the
reporter.
s'No; this is my shop" said the man,
holding up his little valise. Then he
opened it and showed its con-
tents which consisted of a dozen
razors, a number of brushes, and
other paraphernalia belonging to his
trade. ''Most of my customers live on
Walton, Spruce, and Chestnut streets, %

s'How much can you make in week?''
queried the reporter
'sIn winter I average $50 weak, but
in summer I don't make SO much, as
many of my customers go out of town. y
care there any BARRIERS in your branch
in any of the other large cities?"
sNo, I think not. am the only man
in this particular branch. I cater to the
aristocratic class, and I'm saving money
at it. It's my own idea, and as first

of North Dakota, who, in assembled
convention, have prayed not to be ad-
mitted as state until the vast territory
has first been divided. did very sensible
thing. The territory should be separated
by congress: The line proposed for the
division is the forty sixth parallel, which
splits the territory into two parts of
nearly equal size. It would, perhaps, be
still better to divide on the forty-tifth
parallel, leaving the northern fraction to
be IN time divided into two states. Each
OF the three would then be about as large
as Illinois.
