MATTHEW ARNOLD AND CULTURE.

The much abused name of culture
rings rather false in our ears. and the
fear of seeming priggish checks i. 81
it rises to our lips. The name mat
tiers little, however, for the idea il
excellent, and the thing is still bet
ter. / shall not 60 so ia as to gay of
Mr.. Arnold that he invented it; bu!
be made it more definite than it had
bsen before-he vivified and lighted
it up. We like to-day to see princi-
Piles and convictions embodied In per-
sons. represented by certain literary
or political face. There are so many
abroad, all appealing to us and press
ing towards us, that these salient in
CO nations help US to discriminate
and save us much confusion. Ii is
Mr.. Arnold, therefore, that We think
of when We figure to ourselves the
bsst knowledge OF what is being done
IN the world, the best appreciation OF
literature and life. Il is In America
especially that he will have had tie
responsibility of appearing as the
cultivated man-it is in this capacity
that he will haze been atten'ively
listened 10. The curiosity with regard
to culture is extreme in that country;
il thsre is in some quarters consld-
erabls uncertainty as to what 1t may
consist OF. there everywhere great

THE EVE OF THE FRANCO.GERMAN
WAR.

DO not know how the Palace of
ST. Cloud looks now, but when l
saw it last it was a CHASTITY fire.
blackened wreck. A German pique:
OF infantry men were quarterei in
the roofess salon, where they had
built themselves q shelter OF a kind
of scorched tapes ries and singed
carpet scraps. Il troop of Uhisn
recruits were practicing the mGnegs
on the little bend borderad by the
stresm-s spot that had been the
Empress's flower garden. Six
months earlier who, in the wildes
speculation of fancy, could have
imagined the possibility OF such a
fate as this for the beautiful chat
eau? There was the gaunt frame
work of a bow window whose out
look Was up the Seine in the direc-
ton of Paris; this was the chief
window, [ was told, of the room
that had been the private buieau-
the "study" as we should perhaps
call it-of the Emperor Nap 2'eon.
at that window he sat Lite on Jbe
afternoon of July 10th, 1870. 1t
was fair scene that lay Lef0ge
him. On the lawn close under h
eye was the toy railroad track that
had been one Of the rare playthings
of his boy. But it was hardly a
time for adm ring scenery or thick-
ins about toys. The dreamy-eyed
man with his head on his chest had
more serious food for reflection.
War had been declared. The Her-
mans were modelling like clock
work; the French were trying 70
mobilize, and finding that the ats
tempt produced chaos. Olivier had
proclaimed his lightness Of heart in
taking.the arbitrament of war. It
was in the council chamber next
door where LIE Bout had pro-
claimed the army ready to the last

never a stupid man. His intslli-
gence was 80 keen as to impair his
happiness. Had he been a duller
man, he would have had q much
better time Of his spell Of EN-.
pire. He saw him poised
between the all but certainty of
a revolution and the all but
desperate chances of a war, In the
one direction there was no hope; in
the other he could not but realize
there was only forlorn hope. For

THE COAL MINE ACCIDENT.
The bodies of Mel can and his SOD,
who were victims in the Utah Cen
trail coal mine disaster last New
Yesfs eve, were rescued with much
difficulty on Wednesday AS the
mine was, anf still is on fire, a great
risk was run in getting the bodies
out, as all openings had to be clio ed
while the rescuing party were
searching the tunnels and chambers
in the mine. In order to do this q
canvass covering or door was placed
over the openings, that the search
ers could make their entrance and
exit az speedily as possible.
The first party to enter was under
the direction of Supt. W. G. Sharp,
and included son and brother of the
men who persisted and who were ex-
tremely anxious to enter and had
expressed himaelf to the effect that
be thought effort enough had not
been made to get his father and
brother out.
Upon entering the mine candles
were lit but the gas and foul air
were so strong that the lights would
not burn and they were compelled
to search in the dark. The search
had no; gone on long when young
Mclean was overcome with ex.
haustiOn and by mere chance was
discovered by the others just in time
to be taken out alive. Upon reach
ing the entrance all of the party
ware nearly sufocated. A second
party soon entered, and after care>
full hunting and feeling around
discovered the bodies of the two
men in one of the cells, and after
much labor succeeded in reaching
the surface. The men had no doubt
entered the cell to escape the fire,
and there suffocated. The bodies
were in a very good state Of preser>
walton, considering the long time
they had been there. On Thursday
superintendent John Sharp went
to Provo, and funeral services were
held over the remains, and they
were buried In Provo emetery. All
possible efforts had been made to
get the bodies out before, but the
extremely bad condition Of the
mine prevented it.
The mine is yet on fire, and there
is no telling when it will be smoth-
cred.

Battle with an Alligator.

Robert Carroll, a trapper and hun
ter, while trapping for offers on West
Choctawpatchie River, in Alabama, hal
a terrible fight with an alligator.
Seeing the water agitated in hole
near the river, and supposing that offers
were fishing therein, he mounted pole
on a tussock just above the waters edge.
His steel traps were in a sack sus-
pended from his neck. His only
weapon was his Ratchet. He sat on the
pole, with a mass Of vines at his back
He held his weapon ready to strike an
otter, should one arise.
Soon he saw young alligator near
him. He caught il up and it uttered a
cry. In an instant there was q terrible
splash Of water, and a huge alligator,
with distended mouth and glittering
teeth, rushed for him With little hope
of escape he fell back upon the vines,
and as he did so kicked the pole from
under his feet.
The terrible jaws closed on the pole
and crushed it. Carroll tried to inter
pose the traps but vine had caught
them and partly held him down. Seiz-
ing his Ratchet he struck into the open
mouth of his assailant. 1t closed on the
weapon, and with great difficulty he
saved the Ratchet Getting free from
his traps he dealt the alligator fatal
blow on the skull as it made the next
charge.
He secured the skin and such teeth
as had not been destroyed in the fight.
The length Of the alligator was about
nine and a half feet. The hole was ita
den. Alligators rarely attack human
beings.-AbbieUiile, (ALa) CORES

ParaIyzIug n Minstrel show.

A very fair and decidedly intelligent
audience assembled. After q painful
overture and song by Young fellow
who seemed to express him through Il
clogged and difficult quill, one of the
end men said:
"Alr. Rice, eff You wuz-ef you wuz
comm down the street an putty girl
wuz ter kiss you, what would you do?"
why, I'd kiss her back"
No you wouldn't" yelled a man in
the audience, you'd kiss her mouth.

"Mr Rice, SAID another end man,
what would you call a man from En-
gland?"
I'D call him an Englishman."
9Th, huh. What would you call q
man from Ireland ~
I'D call him an Irishman."
"Uh, huh. What would you call a
man from Michigan ?"
I'D call him a Michigander.
The audience groaned and man
called; Say, don't give us that old
Michigeese business"
Thus discouraged at joking, for old

"Oh, hold on, cried man in the

! Astonished at an audience that had
/ ever before seen a minstrel show, the
manager at last decided to make a ia
vorable impression by introducing
something sensational, so he put on
the old ghost trick where a fellow with
a sheet around him comes in. The
white man and negro had sat down to-
gether and the white man had begun
the song about the old iiwbone, when
/ a loud-mouthed man, sitting near the
door. exclaimed:
/ "Boom, COO, coo-hoo, hoo and Just

! jumped and said Goo, coo, hoo, hoo,
and the audience groaned. The thrill
ing ghost scene was a failure, and the
manager, Think g to capture the house
with quartet, sent out a fellow who
| looked like an unwashed railroad sec
ton boss, a short fellow with a high
water jacket and two emblems Of igno-
rance and vocal incapacity. When they
began, the audience, almost to man,
arose and left the house.

Sudden conversions.

Now and then man who has been
a gross drinker is converted by some
electrical experience. Men seeing these
wonderful transitions from midnight to
midday are fascinated by them, and
they have an idea that if man has
been very wicked the power of Gods
spirit will come on him and you will
see him turned in an instant to an ar
dent Christian. They say: What a
splendid contrast" | don't think a
man who has been wallowing for thirty
years is very apt to fly the next thirty
years. A mar who has crept on his
belly like worm will hardly be trans
formed into butterfly, and if he is he
will not be much more than a butter
fly. / don't believe the highest form
of spiritual excellence ever comes from
the lower practices Of men violative Of
the laws of morality. 1t is worth a
mans while to be moral, even if he is
not going to be Christian.
You may ask, viii it save him ?
Will morality save men ?" That leads
me to say vou must not suppose that
morality is a substitute for the higher
form of religion. If / plant a holly
hook and it comes up in stalk and leaf
it is pleasing so far, but if it is cut of
before blossoming it is good only SO
far. You have lost the very end for
which you planted it.
Morality counts for something so far
as it goes. It is, like the spoiled flower,
a process baked, imperfect, The spir-
itual has not blossomed. Preparation
for what fits you TO live in this life
is we'll, but when it comes to the
question OF the great beyond can you
speak that language? Have you got
that money which passes current there
The ship wants to anchor, and the line
comes within twenty feet Of the bottom
What is it good fors 1t doesn't reacl
