Pensions Increased.

The Widows of Gen. Mower and Ad-
 miraI Lanman Benefited.
 The national House of Representatives re- gently passed some bills of interest to Con necticut people The first was the bill granting an increase of pension of from $50 to $50 month to Betsey A. Mower, widow of the late Gen. Joseph A. Mower, one of the most gallcnt men Connecticut gave to the armies of the nation. Gen. Mower was Sherman's right hand man, and old Tecumseh often said that he never failed to execute an order, no matter how hazardous or dif- icult the undertaking might be. The claim for an increase of pension to General Mowers widow was favorably reported to the last Congress, but the bill was never reached for action. Mrs. Mower resides with her two children in New London. The House also passed bill granting an increase of pension of from $50 to $50 a month to Mrs. Ann Cornelis Lsnman, widow of the late Admiral Lanman, U. s. N. Mrs. Lam man is living at Norwich. The report of the comm mmittee, after reciting Admiral Lanman's distinguished services in the navy of nearly half century and how he was placed on the retired list, continues; ''On the 2Oth of February, 1874, he received 8 telegram from Secretary of the Navy Robeson to re port at Washington, as witness. The order was received by him at 5 o'clock in the after noon, and he left for Washington the same evening. On that journey he contracted 8 very severe cold, and when he reached home he was scarcely able to walk. He immsdi- ately took to his bed, and grew worse until the 18th of March, 1874, when he died. The physician who attended him in his lsst sick ness swears that he died of pneumonia, con- tracted during his journey to Washington as above stated,''
 Bills were passed granting a pension to Elizabeth A. Barbour, widow of James D. Barbour, late hospital steward of the Twen- ty-first regiment, Connecticut Volunteers, and afterward assistant surgeon in the United States navy; and to James Roden, late pri- vate in the Twenty-sixth and Eighth Connec- ticut Infantry. Roden is now nearly blind.

SaIvtni's ssOthello."
From the National Review. ]

lHEOL4 tAo NaGlOnal Review.
 "Othello," as Salvini plays him, is an Arab
 of the Italian Renaissance In reposs his
 bearing is proud and serene, his gait is state. ly and dignifed, his gestures are large and
 tranquil. He has the energy and daring of the man of action and the soldier; but his emotional nature is altogether direct and simple. He loves "Desdemona' and he trusts '1ago" with all his heart and mind and strength. These tive affections are the rocks on which his soul is shipwrecked. Take him away from his battles, and they are all his life; and when, by means of the one, he is made his Rdversary's immense intellectual superiority aiding, to doubt of the other, his fall is complete and irreparable. Being an
 Oriental, he is in some sort a savage but
 being an Oriental, he is also perfect gentle man. He has the composure, the Eelf-re. spect, the lofty good breeding of his race.

Darfur on the east. Etymologically. Soudan simply means s'the black, and is 8 corrup tion of the Arabic name Balad-us Sudan
 "the country of the blacks''
 As employed, however, by the Egyptians,
 ''the Soudan" meant not the immense tract of Africa just described, but tract to the east of it, which comprises the countries. ex- .cept Abyssinia, on both sides of the Nile, south of the second cataract, which have, during the last sixty years, been formed into an English province bearing that name. The dependent province or empire-for, be 1t un- derstood the Soudan is not Egypt, any more than Algeria is France-comprises much of Nubia, all Sennaar, all Kordofan and all Oar fur.
 A report recently made to the British for eign office gave its length from north to south, or from Assouan to the Equator, at about sixteen hundred and fifty miles; but this makes it begin at the first and not at the second cataract of the Nile it's width, on the same authority, from Massowah, on the Red Sea, to the western limit Of the Darfur province, is from twelve hundred to fourteen hundred miles. It probably, therefore, does not fall far short, if at all, of the dimensions of India. It is inhabited by two totally dis tlnct races-the northern half by almost pure Arabs, most of them named tribes, profess ing some form of Mohammedism, and the southern half by negroes. who, though off cially chased among the Mussulmans, are really Pagans, and are. roughly speaking all sedentary and agricultural.
 Up to 1919 the Soudan was divided into number of petty kingdoms and chieftaincies but in that year Mohammed Ali, the then Khedive, sent his son Ismail to conquer the country. From that time to the present, the Egyptians had gone on extending the borders of their nominal sovereignty. but have nev- CT yet managed to obtain an undisturbed footing in any part of the vast territory they claim. The seat of the provincial govern ment is at Khsrtoum, at the confluence of the Blue and White Nile.
 Khartoum can be reached from Cairo, from which it is some fifteen hundred miles distant, by the Nile-ths railway stopping short at Assiout, less than three hundred miles from Cairo-but the quickest route is by the Red Sea from Suez to Suakim, which may be regarded as the seaport of the Sou dan, and thence by caravan route of about two hundred and seventy miles to Berber,
 where the Nile is touched, and from that point southward for about the same distance ! to Khartoum.
