A Democratic Prince.

Mrs. Gen. LOGAN has been taking OBJ
servations over the water; and among
the lions she, of course, took in the
Prince of Wales. She is quoted as find
ing him quite commonplace sort of
fellow, very much like the average poll
tician she had seen so much of. He
probably does not size up very large by
the side of GLADSTONE and the real
statesmen, but he is as bright and SEN
sible as one with the disadvantages Of
his birth and life could be expected to
be. CAMERON attributed his success to
starting, like most notable Americans,
with an empty pocket. The prince has
probably been success in emptying
his pockets, but their replenishing
induced no sweat on his manly brow.
But, since he abandoned wild oat-sow-
ing as business, and looked down into
the bottomless chasm, he has straight
ened up. and makes nice little speeches
to "my countrymen," not subjects"
He mingles about, and exhibits interest
in popular matters. The people are
easily taken with such attention, and
the prince is now very popular. He
would run well on any ticket. The in
dications are that he will make one of
the most popular rulers England has
ever had, if he ever gets chance.

Possessed of a Devil.

In popular parlance, it is not uncom-
mon to speak of person as being pos
sessed of the devil, but the sort of
demoniac possession that is referred to
in the times of Christ and the apostles
is supposed to be manifestation not
known IN modern times. A woman
died at Cleveland, O., the past week,
who had for eighteen years labored
under the impression that her body was
the dwelling of a demon. The evil
possession made strange noises, spoke
languages unknown to her and made
things generally uncomfortable for her
and her family. destroying her peace of
mind and allowing little sleep. Preach
ers had prayed with her and doctors
employed their skill, all to no effect.
Her sufferings finally so exhausted her
vitality as to cause death. The de mon,
for a few short periods before her
death, yielded to entreaty and ceased
his troubling, but returned to his work
again. 1t would have been good
occasion for the Christion scientists,
but the woman was poor and their
tariffs are high.

That Wonderful Elixir.

The uniformity of the reported effects
of the experiments of scientists who are
injecting renewed vigor into the worn
and dilapidated systems, in the essence
of animal vitality, presume either re-
markably diffused imagination, or a
wonderful reality in the BROwN-SE-
GUARD discovery. If this could be COM
bined with Muldoonism, there might be
a marvellous advance in display OF phys
zeal power and manly proves. Null
doom took SULLIVAN after his debauch-
cry had made him physical wreck.
Disease added had made him 'as weak
as Kitten" and it was asserted that he
would never be fit to enter the ring
again. MULDooN took him and rigidly
enforced his sanitary and training sys-
tenn. He treated him as machine, and
in few weeks he had the machine in
the most splendid order. Had DR..
HAMMOND come along then to add the
further stimulus of lamb or calf eS-
sence. such an exhibition might have
been had as to take the pith out Of old
SAMPSON. If BLAINE, for instance,
should take this double treatment. he
might be able to knock out CLEVELAND
in the next bout.

SUNDAY CHATTER.

It is probably an evidence of mental,
if not moral strength. where men are
able to separate their thinking from
their acting. This is by no means in
frequent. however. Not that there is
necessary antagonism between the two.
For Illustration, among the notable pull
pit oracles that have visited this section
of late years, two drew large audiences
and lifted the popular life as reached
into high and sweet roamings among
the things that make all akin and like
the Master. A young man of this city,
who was lifted by the eloquent speech
of one to the nights of enthusiasm, had
occasion little later to sit by his side
at dinner table as a stranger, and pre-
Sumed to address casual and pleasant
remark to the distinguished gentleman,
but was astounded with coarse and
brutal rebuff. The young man apollo
gized for his presumption, and said he
was mistaken. He had supposed he
was speaking to gentleman. The st.
Paul man believes in the duality Of
preaching and practice in this instance.
In the case of the other party, who is
still more fervid in his Christ spirit, a
lady said she would not go to hear him,
because of personal knowledge. She
had lived in the same house with him a
year, and saw no suggestion of the
courtesy of Christian gentleman. He
had no kind words for the young men
whose welfare was so largely his pub

DIVORCES,

If there is any place in the world
where questions relating to marriage
and divorce should be discussed, Chi
cago is that place. 1t is an encouraging
sign that there is prospect for a
great moral reformation in the wicked
est city of the continent, when learned
judge who descends from the bench to
the rostrum to uphold the divorce sys-
TEN on Scriptural grounds is assailed
by the entire press of the city for his
profanity. This is the first instance
Chicago official recognized the Bible as
authority, and the profound knowledge
of the Scriptures displayed by the news
paper critics who sailed into the judge
was revelation to the outside world.
If is curious fact, however, that Judge
HORTON. who is a professedly Chris
tian man, as he is unquestionably
learned jurist, should so have per-
verted the text of Holy Writ as
to have deduced therefrom an
argument supporting divorce. He did
it, however, as only Chicago man
would have had the temerity to have
done. by saying that the inspired writ
ers did not have correct knowledge of
the use Of language, and consequently
said the opposite of what was meant.
He even goes so far as to critlcise Moses
for permitting every man to be his own
divorce court instead of establishing
special divorce tribunals, as they do in
Chicago. After all, this criticism is not

Base Ball and Tennis.

A writer in prominent New York
paper discusses the relative merits of
base ball and lawn tennis, and says of
the national game that lit is tame and
insignificant, either as form of physi-
cal training or as an amusement, COM
pared with the game of tennis" Of
course he never played base ball, and
will be regarded by the devotees of that
athletic exercise as a simpering dude.
The base ball enthusiast looks upon
tennis as sort of light, effeminate af-
fair, nicely suited to delicate females
and delicate young men, but not as in
volying any of the sturdy and manly
qualities of the base baller. But both
games have positive qualities adapted
to the tastes of participants. Tennis
seems to have the advantage of not
being a profession, but an innocuous,
genteel recreation with small perils to
life, limb or pockets. Those who want
to put up money on results are not at
tracted by it. 1t does not stir the blood
so as to endanger the system.

around for easier and more salutary de-
vices for disposing of those who have
killed somebody, none seem to have
thought of the method used with the
first murderer of whom there is record.
He had the stamp of his crime put upon
him and was sent away to roam the
lands of all nations as tramp and vag-
abond, the word murderer tattooed on
his forehead so that it could not be eff
faced or covered by his hat. If that
were possible now, it would be far
greater restraint than the fear Of death.
The wretched man would be excluded
from human association and driven to
suicide or the wilds with the beasts. 1t

MINNESOTA AUTHORS.

Last week we reviewed a book written by
Minnesota lady. This week two more am
bilious Minnesotians present their claims to
literary distinction with handsomely appear

VALUABLE BOOK.
The publishing house of +. II. Revell, OF
Chicago, has just brought out most interest
ing work from the pen of Rev. Nathaniel
West, D. D., of this city. The title Of the
book is Studies in Eschatology-The Thou
sand Years of Both Testaments." 1t con-
tains supplementary discussions upon SYM
bolical numbers, the development of proph-
ecy and its Interpretation concerning Israel,
the nations, the church and the Kingdoms, as
seen in the Ap0calypses of Isaiah, Ezekiel,
Daniel. Christ and John.
1t is without doubt the most searching
study in esehatology that has been published
in this century. The volume is the result OF
MANY years of careful study, and will attract
much attention. not only on account of tie
subject treated of, but also on account OF the
pleasant and agl cable style OF the author.
1t is full Of interest to the Bible student and
riyets the attention from the opening to the
closing pages. u

Bacon has succeeded in telling these legends
with grace and poetic beauty that adds TO

A Growing Country.

Figures may not Intentionally lie, but
they become vehicles of alarming es-
arrangement from facts at times. Some
one has figured up that the population
of the United States will at the rates of
multiplying going on in 1890 reach the
immense total of 915, 100000 The CEN
fury following the increase would bring
up an aggregate several times greater
than the population of the world since
the creation. Then, in addition, the
physical scientists are discovering proc
esses to prolong and renew life, so that
by that time it will no doubt be common
for people to live 100 or more years.
There have been similar speculations
and forebodings since the time of DR..
Nautilus, who wanted to limit the
growth of population. Still, somehow,
outside of China and few other locali-
ties where the human stock is not ap-
praised high. there has been very little
crowding. There need be no worry just

TOPICAL TALK.

"OH, THE untrustworthiness of our
business men," was
The Army the remark of cynical
gentleman yesterday,
of Trust while discussing the
Minneapolis forgery
Bearers. case. This accusation
against the business
men of the times was unjust. Trust
Worthiness is the rule, untrustwOrthi-
ness the exception. The occasional
failures and derelictlons of those to
whom money is confded are all re-
ported, while the great army Of trust
bearers who are faithful to duty and to
their employers are never spoken of.
Hence the false impression gets abroad
that the trust-bearing capacities of our
people are not up to the proper stand
ard. In recent article in the North
American Review, Prof. SHALEB I'M
dertakes to show that the sense of honor
in Americans is still as strong, or even
stronger, than it was in the primitive
times. TO prove that there has been no
diminution in the measure of fidelity to
trust among our people, Prof. SHALER
recalls an episode in the business career
of JOHN HANCOCK, the patriot whose
signature to the Declaration of indie
pendence is the most conspicuous feat
ure of the immortal document. When
the colonies revolted from Great Brit
ain, Mr.. HANCOCK was treasurer of
Harvard college, and had in his hands
the funds of the institution. The rec
ords seem to show that for nearly
twenty years HANCOCK appropriated to
his own use the money of the college
intrusted to his keeping. In any col
legiate institution in America to-day
such a maIfeasance would lead
to the immediate prosecution of
the offender. But HANCOCK went
about his affairs, paying little or
no attention to the pleadings of the
corporation for a restitution of the
money, of which the college stood in
sore need. Instead of being prosecu-
ted, he was elected to many distin-
guished offices, holding for term the
place of governor of the commonwealth,
and finally, IN somewhat contempt
nous way. settled his accounts with
the college trustees. Thus it would
seem that the trust-maintaining power

Intemperance Decreasing.

The report recently issued by the
bureau of statistics, as has been noted,
shows that the relative consumption of
distilled liquors in this country is stead
lily decreasing. 1t is hardly more than
half what it was a half-century ago.
That this is to any considerable extent
attributable to temperance legislation
would be difficult to sustain by accepted
facts or figures, although some may
take that view. But there would be no
such legislation if there were not an in
crease of temperance sentiment. Aside
from any legal constraintS or impulses,
it is evident that the number of people
who do not use lntoxicants is growing
absolutely and relatively. Still more
notable is the disuSe of liquors to ex-
cess. The time can be remembered by
many still living when there could be
spiration that flows. 1nebriety was
geniality. There was no public
eye that looked sternly upon
the melloWness that came into
the ordinary comminglings of life. An
instance is recalled where preacher
in the pulpit was too full for coherent
utterance. DANIEL WEBSTER lost lit
tie in public estimation by his fondness
for brandy. Now it is not fashionable
to set out bottle for the guest, and the
man who is seen under the influence of
liquor loses caste. People who drink
themselves look with cOntemptuOuS
pity upon the fellow who "can't stop
when he has got enough" Society
gives little liberation to the young man
who wears the marks of dissipation,
and business opportunities are scanty
and meager. Responsible positions
leave the possession of those who be-
come addicted to drink. The induce
ments to sobriety are greater than in
the 'good old times" recalled by those
who look back only. Milder beverages
are being substituted very generally for
strong drinks by those who do not en-
tirely abstain, and the country is be-
coming more temperate and rational.
