Utilizing the Wastes.

Compulsory education is not enough, be-
cause education in the home atmosphere OF
vice will only give impetus and sharpen
these intellects to rise TO giant wickedness.
They must be taken away from their envi-
ronment. The malaria of crime can only
be checked and cured by change of local
ity. The state and even national govern
ment must become godfather to these fore
doomed reproductions of vicious life. Patri-
otsm and fatherhood are so nearly allied in
our ways of thinking and feeling that we
are not shocked at the governments becom-
ing guardian to this vagrant form of life.
We have an example OF its benefcence at
Carlisle Barracks, in its care and culture OF
the childhood of savages. We wonder that
we had not thought of it long ago. 1t lay
like Jewel in the bosom of Christianity
from the beginning. Now this is what we
need for the wastes of our great cities. Let
the hand of the government lift them from
the slums, and soon there will be no more
places in our great cities where virtue and
charity dare not make pilgrimages unless
guarded by the police. In Sweden the waits
and street Arabs, and neglected children art
rescued by the government as its own, on
the ground that the parents have lost theiI
right by their neglect. These are educated
at government expense. When an intelli
gent American asked in wonder how the
government of Sweden could afford to edu
cate so many, he was as quickly told thai
the government could far less afford not Il
educate them. The form of our govern
ment, with suffrage almost universal, mus
not permit ignorance and crime to exist, o.
they will, like blind Samson, pull down thu
pillars where our institutions rest.-Presby

and prolonged into six blunt hooks which
much resemble the partly closed fingers of
the human hand. In picking up the cable
in deep water, the Nina, after reaching the
waters near the break, let's out her rope and
grapnel, then takes course at right angles
to the cable and at some distance from the
fracture, so that the broken end may not
slip through the grapnel. The grapnel rope
is attached TO a dynamometer, which ex-
actly measures the strain OH the rope, and
shows unerringly when the cable has been
caught II the grapnel fouls q rock the
strain rises very suddenly TO high point Z;
but the exact weight of the cable being
known, the dynamometer signals by the
steady rate OF increase its hold on the cable
far below. The ease and certainty with
which cables are picked up in these days, is
amazing. A while ago one of the lines of
of the Anglo-American company was caught
without trouble at depth of two and a
quarter miles near the middle of the At
lantic Captain Trott Of the Nina, who
has won great fame for his skill and in.
genuity in cable matters, but recently
picked up the French cable one hundred
eighty miles off st. Pierre, and in four hours
from the time the grapnel was let go had
the cable spliced and in working condition.
The splicing is work Of great delicacy
and skill, and when accomplished by trained
fingers the "spliced part can scarcely be
distinguished from the main cord. So rapid
has been the improvement in perfecting the
modern cable that the resistance to the
electric current has been reduced to one
quarter what it was twenty years ago, while
the duplex system of sending and receiving
messages doubles the capacity Of every new
cable laid.

A Notable Anniversary.

A few days since Sweden celebrated the two

Adolphus, won great victory over Wallen.

ished in the arms of victory. Though the
battle was fought on German soil aud was
victory over the greatest German captain
of that age of blood, all Protestant Ger.
many has looked upon the victory as one of
their own. The great Swede invaded Ger.
many, not for conquest, but to deliver the
Protestant states from the terrible load OF
Catholic oppression. The thirty years war
was religious conflict. The Swedes may
well regard Gustavus Adolphus with pecu.
liar pride as a national hero, and the Ger.
mans as the greatest Protestant lberator
His life was one of warfare, and he brough,
to it the qualities of great soldier, irwin.
chile courage, remarkable skill, and new and
superior methods of fighting, besides the re-
lgious impulse, amounting almost to fanat
icism, which inspired him and his armies
He inherited the throne in 1911, and with il
war with the Poles and Russians, beside:
long-standing hostility with Denmark
He soon drove out the Russians, humiliateG
the Poles and, at a later period, entered
Germany as the champion OF the Protestant
states and grappled with Austria. After {
series of splendid successes he ended bi
life, but not his work, on the field of Lut

The Fruits OF French Atheism.

The influence of the government since NJ,
Gambetta became leading man in France
has been in the direction Of simple and un-
qualified atheism. 1t has fostered mis-
chievous tendencies already at work in the
minds of the French people. 1t has stigma
tized faith of every kind as an outworn
reminiscence of dead past. The only re-
suit eau be anarchy of the worst sort. As
Victor Hugo said in lSiS; When Lazarus
comes TO believe that there is no other and
better world for the redress Of the Unequal
tiles of this he will cease to lie at the rich
mans gate; he will force his way into the
rich mans house, with pike in his hand.
1t is a very low view Of religion to regard 1t
as an adjunct of the police it never will
have any power over those who value il
only as a pillar of social order, But after
all, society needs the background of the in
finite to insure its stability, and the govern
ment which helps men to regard themselves
merely as clever kind of beasts, and des
tined to perish as the beasts do, is beating
down the barriers of its own safety, and
and bringing in the floods to its own de
struction.-7he american.

Gladstone.

The seat of Mr.. Gladstone was never 80
firm as at present Though resting on the
popular will he enjoys a more absolute con-
troll of Britain than Bismark does of Ger
many. Though the most radical ruler that
England has ever had and the author of
changes that have been little less than revo-
lutionary, his administration, both at home
and abroad, has been a splendid success
In the face of the most formidable Irish
movement that has been known since the
days of O'Connell, he has succeeded in sup
pressing lawlessness bringing order out of
chaos, disarming or converting the land
league, satisfying Irish discomfort, and
bringing over the most trusted Irish lead.
ers to support of his policy. The Irish
land act has destroyed landlord despotism,
and for the first time within the period of
modern history the Irish have chance for
prosperity in Ireland. Mr.. Gladstone has
ruled the restless island with firm hand,
but shown that he was its real friend by
such legislation as the disestablishment Of
the Irish church, and the land bill. In ad-
dition he proposes, whenever plan is
agreed upon that fully maintains the union
of Ireland with the empire and supports
the supremacy of the British government,
to grant the Irish local self-government
like that OF the American states. In addi-
tion to the complete triumph of his Irish
policy, the rigor and success of his foreign
administration has wonderfully aroused
British enthusiasm. The effect of these
united causes is that the opposition in par.
Lament is powerless and Mr.. Gladstone is
able to move on resistlessly to effect the
changes that he has long purposed. The
"Cloture" bill, regulating proceedings in
parliament, and repeating the cumbersome
and obstructive methods of centuries, has
reached its last stages, and its passage will
render it possible for the administration to
move forward in spite of factious minor.
ity. If Mr.. Gladstone had ten years more
of vigor he would complete the work he has
already effected in part, of making new
England, but the scepter must soon fall
from his aged grasp, and it is currently re
ported that he intends to retire from public
| life at the close of this winters session ot
parliament. He could never resign his off
ces at better time for his own fame

At last they have met again
Not on the field Of the slain,
Not where the fight is won
Under burning sun;
But away from the toll and strife
They have met in the world Of life,
And they walk by the tranquil river
Together forever and ever.
For twenty-five long years
She has looked through her widows tears,
Back to the stirring past,
When she shook at the trumpets blast
And knew that for veal or woe
Her dearest needs must 20,
For he stayed not for love or beauty,
Loyal alone to his duty.
What days did she live through then
On the lips Of a thousand men
Was the name that was dearest TO her;
And amid the rush and the stir
How proudly her heart would beat
As she heard in the crowded street
OF Havelock's saints " and their deeds,
And knew for his country's needs
lie stood mid the shot and the rattle
OF the terrible field Of battle.
Did her cheek flush red as abe heard
How the heart Of the queen was stirred
Did she lift her head the higher,
when he in the thick Of the hre,
Victorious ever, went on
TIL fight after fight was wont
Did the women think Of her
When they hailed him Dellverer2
Did she know how the mothers blessed him
And the little ones caressed him2
And how strong he was to save,
How noble, true and brave7
Alas as they praised hts name
Growing his head with fame,
Swiftly the message sped
1.-THE hero you love Ia dead"
The shouts were loud in the air
AZ they raised in the public square
The memorial Of him;
But the widows eyes were dim,
And the years were long to wait
Now at last at the open gate
She has seen her own again
And forgotten the parting pain,
And she finds that his honors are
Not for his might In war,
Not that he used a sword,
But that he served his Lord.
And away from the noise and strife
They are living glad new life,
And their peace shall flow as river
In heaven forever and ever.
