A WORD FOR THE IMMIGRANT.

A writer in the st. Louis. Globe
Democrat says: A strong feeling il
being aroused against what's called
indiscriminate immigration. We
are frequently confronted with start.
ling statistics showing the immense
number Of ignorant and debased
Irish, Germans, Swedes, Poles and
Scandinavians that are poured into
our land through the open gate OF
Castle Garden. We are called on
to contemplate the very serious
consequences to our national char
acter and institutions of such unre-
stricted and undesirable additions
to our population. No doubt this
describes a real danger. Beecher
used to say: "The greatest danger
in the world to a man is being born !;
after that pretty much all dangers
are alike" This is as true of ma
ton as it is of a man. Beyond
question the presence in our midst
OF the vast mass of unassimilated
human nature is dangerous. But
it is one of the most conspil lous
sources of our national greatness.
1t always sounds little queer to
hear the average American talking
about foreigners, when there is no
more composite creature in the
world than the American citizen.
The typical American is the splen-
did product of perhaps half score
of races. Pc Fps his grandfather
was a ma. niumnt Scandinavian
peasent, and e Folgrandmother a
wholesome E looks 0lkmaid. He
has dash of u;n fror caution and
and strain Of French ferceness,
and the reason why his daughter is
the handsomest woman in the world
is because into her exquisite frame
and intelligent brain has passed
the blood of a half-score of races
which flowed through that same
despised gate of Castle Garden
No, this newer native Americanism
is retrograde movement in Ameri-
can politics. We are big enough |
and strong enough and wise enough
and rich enough to deal with all
the ignorant masses of people that
seek refuge in this land. The
Irishman is disposed to be little
restive, and he exhibits an imma-
:ure interest in our political affairs
which is sometimes troublesome.
But his eagerness to vote the day
after he lands is whitening rebuke
% those people who never use
he ballot at all. His son is very
lpt to become a native American
'ugilist, alternately filled with burn
ng patriotism and inferior whisky.
But the grandson becomes a splen-
lid citizen. A wise and witty
'reacher once said: "No matter
low many trees the elephant eats, 1
le never turns into tree. The trees
lways turn into elephant" No {
natter how many nations we may
bsorb, they will all turn into /
americans. /,

and I say again that we. do no
know, we cannot say, whether dealt
is a wall or a door; the beginning
or the end; the spreading of pin
mons to soar, or the folding foreve
of wings; the rise or the set of
sun, or an endless life that bring
rapture and love to every one. BIOL
Ingersoll.
Well, if you don't know anythin.
about these things, why are yol
forever talking about them? Why
do you set up as a teacher wher
you publicly confess that you know
nothing whatever about the things
you propose to teach?
You are a good woyd painter
Bob-more words than 1ogic-you
round up your sentences vol ano
your speeches and lectures lersi as
smooth as oil, but when we come
to pan them all down, there is dew
lish little bedrock, or death-bed
consolation in your doctrine, what
ever it is. There is no comfort fol
the soul, Bob, in your uncertain
position regarding the dark beyond
which we must all face sooner OF
later. Your mission in life seems
to be to pull down the great moral
pillars of society, rather than to
build them up and fortify them.
Say what we may, or think what
we may in the abstract, all Chris
tian organizations are so many bal
ance-wheels in the great worlds
civilization. If nothing more, they
elevate the moral side Of men and
women, while exerting a restraining
influence over the evil that may be
in them. Your religion" Bob,
doesn't do even this much. AS
matter of fact, it doesn't do any,
thing, and doesn't propose to do
anything. You take away and give
nothing in return. That is robbery
of both society and the soul.
And now, coming right down to
cases." Bob, and we are not much
of a religionist in the denomira-
tional sense, if we could double dis
count you in the forum of infdelity,
we would not 60 forth and preach"
as you do, for all the wealth of the
Comstock lode We wouldn't be
guilty of disturbing, uprooting and
pulling the faith Of a blissful i'm
mortality out of one faithful Chris
tian soul to be President of the
United States, particularly if we
lad not something better to offer
n the place of it.
Faith in future existence and |
ife, where all is perpetual joy and
happiness, is great thing to lean
lpon in the eleventh hour, as you
nay realize to your sorrow, Bob,
vhen you strike the home-stretch
md are about passing under the
wire of everlasting oblivion. And
We may say further and frankly to
'ou, Bob, that the man who will
deliberately, and "for revenue only"
ear away and break down and
mash UP these last sad comforts
# the faithful, commits sins against
humanity for which he should go
traight to hell, if there be hell.

A Monster Magnet.

One of our leading army engin.
eers has brought before the engineer
classes Of late an experiment of SO
startling a nature in its inception
as to promise wonderful results. 1t
is monster magnet made Of two
Rodman guns, which are connected
at the breech. Around the magnet
thus formed is wound about twenty
miles of submarine cable. The ca
BILE is some that has been used in
the torpedo service. It's wound and
fastened in substantial manner,
making permanent magnet. When
electricity is applied some strange
results take place. For instance, a
bar of railroad iron thirty feet long,
if placed in the open cannon's
mouth, cannot be drawn out by as
many men as can grasp it. Another
instance of the strength of this big
magnet was illustrated recently with
a 35O-pound cannon ball. The shot
was placed in the mouth of the
cannon on the negative side. On
reversing the electrical current it
fell from it's position, but was at
tracted to the opposite cannon and
clung to it's side. The positive cur
rent was then reversed alternately
with the negative, and the heavy
cannon ball played between the two
cannon like q tack between the
poles of toy magnet. Before many
days there will be a public exhibit
tian of this remarkable magnet.
