ANOTHER English poet, Mr.. Gerald Massey,
has dropped out of poetry long enough to come
over and teach Americans a few things He has
four lectures, the light and airy titles of which
are follows:
oman in search of his soul during fifty thon-
sand years, as witnessed by the evidence of
bones and caves, ana how he finds it, The
nOn-historic nature of the fan of man, and what
il siQnified as astronomical myth0S and physio-
logical fables tine UNCONSTITUTIONAL nature of
the cauonica Gospels demonstrated by means
of the mythos now for the first time completely
recovered from the sacred books of Egynt,' and
why God does not kin the devil or the nature
of evil according to the doctrine of develop
ment.'
Mr.. Massey says his lectures are scientific,
arcbnologic and revolutionary but qualities
this somewhat alarming statement by the asser-
ton that he says nothing antagOnistic Chris
tlanity The last lecture of the series will per-
haps prove the most popular. 1t is doubtful if
the American public, particularly the gious
portion, really want the devil to be killed. but
they will dock to hear the man who can success
fully demonstrate why it isn't done Mr.. Massey
will undoubtedly gather enough shekes, while
over mere, to enable him to engage in the unre-
munerative poetry business once more.

THE ex-Rev H. o. Hoffman, of Bloomington,
Ill, the alleged seducer of zetta Robinson, has
addressed the following bombastic letter to
John Swinton, editor of q SOcastc paper in
New York:

upon the trumpet which has the clear ring OF

Fail ofa building Wall.

The south wall of the two story building at
the southwest corner of New Jersey avenue
and G streets fell in yesterday morning at
about IL o'clock. The front of the lower
story was used as a restaurant by John Con-
nors by whom the building was owned. The
other portion was occupied by Mr.. Mary Duffy
as residence. The barkeeper states that he
heard the wall cracking and went out to look at
IL and while out the crash came. A Miss Duffy
who is employed at night in the government
printing Office, was asleep in the upper story,
hut was awakened aud gotten out without in.
Jury, The caving in probably occurred on
account of the settling of the ground, as a
cellar had been dug ON the next lot and nc
precautions TO support this wall had been
taken. Fortunately no one was working in
the excavated cellar or serious consequences
would have resulted,
