ceeds blizzard and there has been scarcely
week during the last two months when
that region has not been visited by storm

stop entirely railroad traffic. BY the storm
of last Sunday the town of Reville Da-

account of the failure of coal, people have
been compelled to in some instances to
use their furniture for fuel.

The act of the Emperor Frederick in
creating contingent regency in favor of
his son is evidently continuation of the
policy initiated by his father, and planned
by Prince Bismarck, to give stability to
the machinery of state. It's bearing on
the reports which represent Prince Viii
liam as most untilial son is also obvious.
1t would seem to be improbable that the
emperor would thus recognize son who
had shown Impotence forhis fathers death
and positively insulted his own mother.
IL cannot be long before the crown prince
will be called npon to assume the power
thus delegated TO him. and it will then
soon be known whether he is for peace or
war in Europe.

s3,0O0,0OO. One way to dispose of it would
be to import some "honest' Kentucky

The French politicians are never willing
TO let well enough alone. The cabinet
that has been forced to resign was doing
its work well, and the country was peace
full with no signs of popular discomfort
anywhere. But the politicians were not
satisfied. The Chamber of Deputies II
divided into number of factions, who are
willing to combine just long enough to
overthrow the government of the day, and
then they go at each others threats again
France would be more prosperous conn

tainty which affects every kind of indus

Following closely on the heels of Jay
Gould's Atlanta William X. Vanderbilt's
Alva anchored off the coast of Georgia
Friday morning The trip was to have
lasted three years but owing perhaps to
the magnetic influence of the new $4,000
cook or for some other reason the party
have come home two years ahead of the
time appointed when the cruise began
The Alva was built and finished without
regard to cost, and her running expenses
aggregated $4,000 or $4,000 per month
The crew were supplied with gilt-edged
bootjacks and it is generally understood
that each jolly tar had his own valet and
privat1secretary. But the owner seems
to have tired of his floating palace a good
deal sooner than he expected to. He prob
ably feels as if he could afford to change
his mind occasionally.

A Philadelphia lady accidently left her
visiting list in dry goods store. 1t was
found to comprise hundred or more
names of the Quaker city's bellies and
beauX, accompanied by such explanatory
notes as "horrid and vulgar" does moth

room, " Every well, d" "rich, but disagree
able" "pretty, but poor" 'conceited,"
'plebeian," 'pretentious and pushing"
Clever, but fast, " "blue- blooded pauper,"
lawfully queer" "a dreadful tongue"
etc, etc. OF course these left handed
got round in time to the per-
sons described; and Mrs - lives to
mourn that she did not confne herself to
the old method of spoken detracton.

The example of the young woman in
New York State, who ran for a school
office and conducted her own canvass, is
said to be quite catching and it is asserted
that feminine political "work" is likely
to be a feature of the coming presidential
campaign. 1t is even proposed to form
clubs of drilled and uniformed young
ladies who shall carry torches and parade
the streets, with banners bearing perhaps
the likeness of Mrs. Cleveland. AS this
however, is method which might work
in two ways, it is not likely to be adopted.

The river and harbor bill which the
House Committee has just reported, is the
largest ever presented to Congress. It's
total amount is $l9,432, 1888 This is an
enormous sum of money and it is likely to
be increased by amendments in the House
and Senate. 1t should he remembered,
however, that no river and harbor bill was
passed at the last session. A good deal is
said abont og-roling and jobbery in con
nection with this bill every year, and there
mas been far too much foundation for
TINS unshvOry comment. The sum could
be honestly and iudiciously spent, with
out jobbery, in improving our Waterways
and in henefttiug commerce. 1t would
be good way in which to spend portion
OF the surplus. The trouble with this bill
probably is that il is crammed with need
less appropriations, introduced tor polit-
zeal effect and designed 70 help the demo
craticparty.
Mrs. Cleveland has favored the world
with her opinions in regard to the way IN
which newspapers should be conducted
She is quoted as saying that the standard
of the press in gene al does not reflect the
better and upward tendencies of our ma
tloual tastes She thinks that It's most
desperate energies are expended in nara
lions of crime and human weaknesses in
stead of applauding the nobler events in
the worlds every day record. Mrs. Cleve-
lands newspaper reading is probably
confined to the democratic press and
1t Is therefore not strange that she enter
talns suchopinons. She is certainly to be
commended for her effort to elevate the
tone of these organs. Her suggestion that
the women of the country should discrim-
mate as between newspapers fit to come
into the domestic circle and those which
are not" is very proper one. 1t would
he well If all parents and guardians would
heed this suggestion from "the first lady
of the land"

What is Likely to Happen in
the Next Century,

From the North American Review.
The civilization of the future will,
however, respectfully decline Mr.. Rus
kin's plan for regaining Arcadia by
the substitution OF moonshine and
manual labor for gaslight and steam
engines. Labor-saving machinery
has come to stay, and if steam shall
not monopollze the rough work of the
next century it is only because it will
share it's functions with it's twin giant
of electricity. We shall have steam
quarries and steam-diggine machines
and the speed OF travel is destined to
surpass the achievements of the pre-
sent age by lust as much as modern
express train surpasses a medieval
mail coach.
The coming American autocrat of
the breakfast table will growl at the
delay OF the morning mail per night
boat from Europe. Excursion trains
leaving Boston after breakfast will
avoid the night fogs OF the Cordilleras
by reaching the City OF Mexico in
time for supper. The competition OF
rail and ocean routes with balloon
bee lines will make travel cheap
enough to fam;harize our tourists
with every zone of their continent,
and climatic epicures will probably
contrive to enjoy perpetual summer.
by converting their July picnics in the
Yellowstone Park and their New
Years symposium in Valparaiso.

Officers

Our volunteer soldiers had, for the

the time OF their enlistment and were

given by different officers when they
undertook for the first time to get
their m en- into marching order. They
have the merit of being ineligible,
though not exactly regular:

a Rare Biblical Library,
from the Philadelphia Ledger.


The American Philosophical So
ciety's Committee on History preced-
ed the formation of the Historical
Society of Pennsylvania. 1t was in
dustrious, and the result is the col
lection OF certain rare books and
pamphlets of historical value, which
would scarcely be expected in a sclen-
tihc library.
In the division, spiritual science,
is included religious books. OF these
the most important and unique are
Bibles and testaments, a variety Of
literature unusual in the collections
OF societies unless they might be con-
sidered as aids to the study of philol-
ogy. 1t Is O. polyglot collection, too,
and can scarcely be surpassed any
where by the diversity OF dialects and
tongue in which the Scriptures are
printed. OfTestaments there are cop
les in the languages of Malay, Siam,
Turkey, Java and the East Indies,
including the various dialects of Ben
gal, Hindoostan, North Africa
(Berber), Arabia, Armenia and Chi
nese. These Eastern tongues are at
least contested with by translation in
the Chippewa, Ojibway, Hawaiian and
Esquimaux languages. The Bibles
are Of rare editions and early i'm.
prints, comprising one in Latin, print
ed in 1924; in French, the Etienne,
1867; Spanish, 1869; Dutch, 1891;
German, 1903; Latin, 1927; Vulgate,
1880; French, 1899; Luther's trans

Ills; Erse or Gaelic, l7O7; Italian,
l712; Syriac, ills; Polish, 1741,
and Hebrew, 1882. These, with the
English translations OF later dates,
make up a biblical library which it
would be hard to match and not easy
to surpass.
