PRIVILEGES OF PEERS.
Modern NOblemeD Have More Privilege

Modern NOblemeD Have More Privileges
in Theory Than in Reality.
Theoretically peer has many priv
heges; practically he has very few.
The word peer must be understood to
include Dukes, Marquises, Earls, Wis
counts and Barons; though it is gen.
orally understood to include all per-
sons entitled to the prefix of Duke or
Lord. In common parlance, these are
the two prefXes of English nobility.
The title of the present Prime Minis
ter is the Marquis of Salisbury, but
nine times out of ten he is referred to
as Lord Salisbury. That nobleman's
old rival, the Earl OF Derby, is gen.
orally spoken of as Lord Derby, and
for every man who speaks of Viscount
WOlseley there are at least a score
who apply to the hero of Tel ell
Keber the shorter and more popular
prefix Lord" Lord Tennyson is fire.
quently spoken of, but the poet laureate
is really Baron and his correct title,
to be punctiliously accurate is Alfred,
Baron Tennyson. In other words, al
most every peer with lower prestige
than Duke is Familiarity spoken of
as Lord, y a striking evidence of the
growing carelessness of the public as
to titles; and it is needless to add that
peers themselves are much too Jealous
of their privileges and titles to be
guilty of such a disregard of discrim-
inatiOn.
The only persons who, to be strictly
according to Burke, should be ad-
dressed as Lord" are the younger sons
of peers who are entitled to the prefix
before both Christian and sur
name. Thus, by courtesy, a young
er brother of the present Duke of
Marlborough is known as Lord Ran
dolph Churchill, and the son of the
Duke of Devonshire who was muir
dered in Phoenix Park, was Lord
Frederick Caveudish. The personal

Easing the conclusion on results of ex-
perience in building many miles of
post-andwire fence, and explains his
position and practice as follows;
"a hole is dug in the ground with
an upright back to it two and a half
feet deep, with slanting front, the
bottom space as nearly the size of the
post-butt as it is possible, with long
handled spade, so the worker may
stand upright in his work. The post
now being let down is solid in the bot
tom, the earth filled in to the sur
face and by the settlers foot is tamped
tightly on the top, set upright and
found to be firm enough for all pur-
poses beyond the corner or gate posts.
This saves the tamping usually
done, so much of which is useless hard
word. In winter here the earth is
frozen to the bottom of the post In
spring it is thawed again into wet
mud. both tamped and loose setting,

1t Is Incumbent on All Good MOslems to
Perform 1t Once At Least.
Every year thousands upon thou-
sands of pious believers in the name
of Mohammed desert their homesteads
and wend their way, both by land and
by sea, toward the country that saw
the birth of their religion and wit
messed the miraculous deeds of their
arch-prophet. From China, India and
Persia; from every quarter of the
Turkish Empire; from Egypt, Tripoli
Tunis, Algiers and Morocco; from
Zanzibar and Senegal; from Kurdistan
and Afghanistan; from the Soudan
and the great Sahara, and from many
other places whose existence we Euro
peans are but dimly conscious of,
they throng-mostly poor, ignorant
and dirty, but devout and deter
mined in their purpose. They are
pilgrims to the holy cities of Arabia.
Mecca and Medina, and to reach them
they starve themselves for years to
save up sufficient money to defray their
expenses and endure horrible priva-
tions by the way. They commit them
selves to the mercies of the vast and
awe-inspiring sea, dreaded by all true
Easterns. They risk being robbed by
the Bedouins or killed by the heat
and all with an amount of phlegm and
good humOr that is almost sublime.
Whatever happens to them they care
not. God will provide for them, and
should they die on their way out they
will be received all the more readily
into the mansions and the arms of the
voluptuOus houris already provided for
each one of them by their much-be-
loved prophet in the seven-storied
paradise of Islm. Last year Q888)
the Great Hadi, or principal day,
when all the pilgrims have to unite
in worship at Mecca, took place
on Friday, August IL. 1t usual
ly occurs about this time, but
the exact date varies, and is fixed an
nually by the religious authorities
at Mecca. 1t is incumbent on all good
Moslems to perform this pilgrimage at
least once, if they can afford it. Many
perform it several times, and some
make a business of it and hire them
selves out as substitutes for others, for
pilgrimage by proxy is considered to
be as effective as one performed in per-
son, provided that the person in whose
behalf it is performed be dead. No
one can hire a substitute during his
lifetime, but he may leave provision
to that effect in his will. This pill
grimage must not be considered in the
light of penance, after which the
Hadji is to receive a plenary indul-
gence for past sins. 1t is an ordinance
of the religion of Islam, as the same
nature of our Eucharist, whereby the
believer is supposed to be brought into
closer communion for the time-being
with the Deity.-Cornhill Magazine.
