Musteru Of Missing Zen.

Philadelphia Record: One of the best
men ever knew here-a man of sixty five
years, who loved his home and family
dearly, and had no reason for eccentricity-
slipped away one afternoon, went to Bos-
ton and then to Washington, and for two
years drove car there, remaining away
because he thought his wife would manage
his affairs better without him. lie never
intended to return but was seen by chance,
arrested as lunatic, and given his choice
to be confined in an asylum or to do his
duty as a man. He came back, and, after
two happy years at home, died in his wlfe's
arms. In an other case that / remember,
gentleman was supposed to have commit
suicide by jumping from steamboat.
His wife made no fuss, but kept the matter
quiet, because she never gave up the idea
that his suicide was sham, and for three
years she hunted him down, and finally
restored him to his home and business. A
third case of which had personal knowl-
edge was that of dry goods merchant
who was absent twenty years, and who re-
turned wealthy, made himself known to his
wife, who had been married in the mean
time, sought out his son and gave him
$4,000. and then went his way as he came.
He said he had left home because he want
ed to; had not married or cared for another
home, and liked the life of wanderer
much better than any domestic ties.
These Instances go to show that the case of
alleged mysterious disappearance may
sometimes be accounted for without any
necessity of presupposing robbery and
murder.

Taxation of ParsOnages.

To the Editor of the Globe:
l notice that correspondent of the
GLOBE, in to-day's issue, gives his ideas
on the question of taxing parsonages, and
after opposing the measure, winds up by
asking: ''Who does not say it is shame ?"
beg leave to say to your correspondent
that 1 and thousands of other tax payers
say it is not shame; but that it would be
a shame If they we're not taxed just as 9th
er persons residences are. Why, indeed,
should clergymen have such royal exemp
ton as this? Are they privileged class,
that they are above the law thus? Why do
they ask to evade their share of taxation
in this manner? The cottage of the poor
man is taxed, and he has to pay it, sick or
well, out of his meagre earnings. The
clergy usually have princely incomes.
Many of them in this state are paid from
$4,000 to $4,000 per annum, besides lar
ges5es from marriage fees, gifts and pres
ents, and exemption from many eXpendi-
lures which we non-clerical citizens have
to pay. They are abundantly able to pay
their taxes, and should be ashamed to shirl1
out OF them thus.
The question. is now largely agitated Of
making all church property bear its share
of taxation. This should be done, and
believe viii be done, in a very few years.
But whether done or not, there is no reason
why the residences of a pamPered and
luxurious class should be exempt from tax
alton, simply because they are CLERGY
men," This would be bad policy on their
part, even if it we're legal 1t would only
Increase and intensity The growing preju-
dice against them in the minds of large
class. My advice to these gentlemen is,
let well enough alone. DON'T agitate this
question too much, or your feudal privi-
Ieges may be curtailed, instead of being
increased. If all the citizens of this state
were believers in your religion, the exemp-
ton of your property might be fair
enough. But what right have you to tax
non-believers or non-members for the sup
port of your churches? We ask only equal
rights and equal justice for alI-and no
privileged classes. HUMAN RIGHTS.

The Ecuador Revolution.

PANAMA, Feb. 2.-Advices from Ecu ador
give particulars of the capture of Esmer-
aida, the leading port on the coast by the
revolutions. The attacking party had
thirteen killed and twenty-six wounded,
and the dictator lost forty killed and an
equal number wounded. The defeated
government troops have landed at Guaya-
Quill. People generally are highly elated
at the success of the revolution. A gov
eminent has already been nominated with
a supreme director at Fro and four min
listers. The new dictator will at once ex-
pel the Jesuits and establish restrictions
upon the clergy. Prior to abandoning
Esmeralda the dictator's troops plundered
the port and set fire to it in three places.
An American named Feros was among the
killed. Great excitement prevails, and
people are fleeing the town. 1t is the last
stronghold of the dictator. He was i'm
pressing men and horses and every thing
available to the military service.

speech. It is the parrot and not the
monkey that learns to talk. This has
struck the observant negro, who IS said
to have a theory that the monkey can
speak but will not do so, lest he should be
made to work. If the monkeys had ar
rived at this generalization, they would
soon find that even the muues must do
something in the complex organization of
civilized life. 1t is clear, however, that in
addition to the possession of certain physi
illogical and mental characteristics an ami
nal must be in close contact with man
before he can be expected to become ia
miliar with his speech. 1t is evident that
the animals that would appear most prom
ising for such an experiment are not avail
BILE for the purpose. They do not increase
in captivity, and hence the hereditary in
fuences of selective development
carried on for generations is
entirely absent. 1t is gravely
doubted by some whether the birds that
initiate the speech of man have any per-
ception whatever of the meaning of the
words they use. Do they employ their
phrases with definite purpose or intention,
or do they merely reproduce what they
hear, as a boy may initiate the quack of
duck or the grunt of a pig? The writer of
the article mentioned recites the case of a
parrot which always preferred the petition,
'Give Polly bit, if you please" when she
saw that food was being prepared, but did
not offer that observation at any other
time. He also mentioned magpie at
StoWmarket that knew and used with accu-
racy the names of several members of the
family. The Able Gras has two parrots
that use general phrases with strict appro-
priateness. When a supply of seeds is
given to Coco she cries, Here is something
good" If her companion screams she
says, 'come, Cocotte, don't scream:
sing" If her request is complied
with she patronizingly observes, You
sing well; oh, very well"' M.
Gras was giving some directions to his
housekeeper when Coco interjected, How;
don't you understand" Intelligent par
rots occasionally vary their phrases, and,
like children who are learning to talk,
never speak of themselves in the first per-
son. The child calls itself "Baby'' as the
parrot styles itself polly" The bird and
the child alike puzzle and blunder in con-
ming over a new phrase, and have especial
difficulty in mastering the final part Of the
sentence. Considering what an individual
bird can accomplish it would be rash to
limit the possibilities of that which might
be if generation after generation of clever
parrots were matched. perhaps" says
the writer, Gin these days of cram and of
the equal rights of animals we may in five
centuries have magpies in the fifth and
sixth standards, macaws preparing for the
examination of the science and art depart
ment, and cockatoos sweet bird graduates
taking their degree at the University of
London"

are never initiated or counte1Je:ted. THIS is es-
pecially true of family medicine, and it is
positive proof that the remedy initiated is OF tie
highest value. AS soon as it had been tested
and proved by the whole world that Hop Bltters
was the purest, best and most valuable family
medicine on earth, many limitations sprung MP
and began to steal the notices in which the press
and people of the country had expressed the
merits of H. B., and in every way trying
to induce suffering inyalids to use their stuff
instead, expecting to make money on the credit
and good name of II. 3. Many Others
started nostrums put up in similar style to Fl.
B., with variously devised names in which
the word ''Hop'' or "Hops'' were used in way
to induce people to believe they were the same as
Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or
cures, 10 matter what their style or name is, and
especially those with the word 'Hop'' or 'sHops''
in their name or in any way connected with
them or their name, are limitations or coun-
terfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of
them. Use nothing but genuine Hop Bitters,
with bunch or cluster of green Hops on the
white label. Trust nothing else. Druggists
and dealers are warned against dealing in imita-
tons or counterfeits.

clergy Kapiolani was in q nude state, pub
icly amounting herself with coconut oil,
while undergoing some heathen rite Of her
tabu creed. From this state of pagan deg
radiation the beautiful princess soon be-
came one of the most devout Christian
converts, glowing with pious zeal to
accomplish something which might
break thought the superstitions of
her people. Twenty-six thousand idols
had been destroyed by fire, by order of
King Liholiho and the high priest, Hew-
ahewa, and yet the degrading tabu re-
manned unbroken. 1t was time for some
other overt act to be thought of. In a state
of drunken frenzy Liholiho had broken
the tabu by eating with the women. A
brave act for young king, but not of suf-
ficient Importance to affect the tabu.
Kapiolani now came to the rescue, and,
with a moral heroism equal to any act of
her sex, she determined to brave Pele in
her own fiery stronghold of Kilauea, test
ing the divine power of her new found
God by defying the goddests and breaking
her tabu in the presence of
multitude News of her intended sac
rilege was proclaimed all over the island,
creating feeling of Transformation, not only
for the welfare of the princess, but lest the
very island should be destroyed. Many
came to plead that she would abandon the
rash act; and none were more terrified for
her safety than Naihe, her warrior hus-
band.
Followed by eighty of her terror-stricken
friends, Kapiolani walked hundred miles
through the mountain wilderness on her
pilgrimage of terror. Approaching the
seething crater, Kapiolani was met by
shriyelled old priestess of Pele, bearing
fiery malediction from Pele-hot from the
dread Hallman-man, (house of everlasting
fre)-in which Pele threatened not only
death to all corners but destruction of the
island.
The multitude stood appalled,, and
begged the princess to desist from her
rash act. But, quoting some new learned
passages from scripture to the Kahuna
calmly and resolutely to the crater's verge,
where the sea of molten lava ragged like
storm-lashed ocean demonstrating the
wrath of Pele. Gathering handful of
sacred ohelo berries, ever consecrated to
Pele, she ate them in derision of the tabu-
rite, instead of casting them into the
crater as peace offering to the goddess.
Gathering up stones, she threw them into
the fiery food instead of the accustomed
berries. Standing there in the presence of
the most awful natural phenomenon on
earth, confronting the most terrible con-
ception of a pagan deity, Kapiolani calmly
addressed the multitude as they stood APP
palled by their own fears:
Behold! my people, the gods of Ha-
wall are vain gods. Great is Jehovah, my
God. He kindles these fires. Fear not
Pele; she is powerless. Should I perish,
then fear her power. Should God pre-
serve me, then break your tabu, knowing
there is but one God, jehovah" In com
memoration of this brave act of Kapiolani
Ke Nui, (the great the kings present wife,
was named, and his royal order of Kapio-
lani was proclalmep for the "recompense
of distinguished merit to the state, for hu-
mainly, genius, science and art, services
rendered to ourselves or OUT successors"

Antn.als acquiring Human Speech.

A writer in the Journal of Science deals
with the interesting subject of the at
tempts of certain of the lower animals to
acquire human speech. At the outset the
observer is struck by the curious fact that
the most successful attempts of this nature
have been made not by the animals that
are usually held to rank nearest to human
ity, but by certain birds. M. A. Rouion
tells of a dog that can pronounce the words
ma maman. Considering the intelligence
of dogs, it is perhaps a matter of surprise
that such stories are not commoner. 1t
has been suggested that the cause may
be in the difference in structure of the vo-
cal organs. At all events the lower mann

Tbe Big Chicago FaiIure.

CLEvELAND, Feb. 2.-The failure of the
Union Iron & Steel company of Chicago
created a profound sensation here. The
Messrs. a. B. 81 Amasa Stone and other
Cleveland capitalists owned probably two
thirds of the stock and the greater part of
the sum owed for ore is due to the com
pany'5 having headquarters here. 1t was
known the company was embarrassed, but
the failure was unexpected, even by the
stockholders, who first learned of it through
the associated press dispatches. A prom
inent banker said today there was not an
iron nor coke company in the country but
pressed its contracts on the Union compa-
ny and that no establishment anywhere
had better credit. The iron and steel
works are regarded as among the best in
the world.
