Mr.. Calvert's only sister was wife of the

siderably older than her brother, and took
a matronly interest in him. When, there

his new duties, his sister determined to do
her best to aid him in procuring suitable
wife. Neither TO his sister nor to any one
else did Mr. Calvert communicate the fact
that his matrimonial projects were not
altogether voluntary.

THE HEBREW IDEAL.

The intelligence is given in our local
columns that a branch of the Hebrew
Society for colonization of Palestine has
been organized in Pittsburg. This shows
that even the modern and Amerioanized
Hebrews are still faithful to the traditional
dream of their race for the restoration of the
ancient kingdom, and its rehabilitation, with
all the glories of modern invention and COM
merce added to it.
There can hardly be any doubt that the
wealth and influence of the merchants and f.
out the world, would crown united effort for
the restoration of Jerusalem with a bril-
liant success. The race whose members
check European wars or permit Them to go on,
by tightening or loosening the purse strings,
would find it easy to furnish the funds and
command the protection of the powers for a
project so full of romance and combining so
much of the traditions of antiquity with the
triumphs of the Nineteenth century COM
merce. There is an irresistible attraction in
the thought of reversing the work of ancient
conquerors and restoring the distinction of
Titus by the power of modern wealth and
trade, that would enlist the sympathies of
civilization without regard to creed or race.
We do not think it likely that Jerusalem
would ever offer such attractions even to its
restorers. as to take the majority back there
for permanent residence. 1t might be made
a religious capital, like Rome for the
Catholics, or Mecca for the Moslems. But
the marts of Europe and America offer too
great attractions for the trading instincts of
the successful Hebrews, cultivated through
nineteen centuries of expatriation, for them
to accept the monotonous, if honorable and
romantic, retirement of life in their ancient
land.
Still the object is an ideal one, and places
the Hebraic hopes and purposes in their
finest light. The prosecution of the work
to successful issue will command uni
versal sympathy and admiration.

DID BELLAMY LOOK BACKWARD!

Looking Backward" by Mr.. Edward
Bellamy, has made more noise than any
novel of the year. A young woman calling
herself Vera Zarovitch is resolved that it
shall achieve, moreover, notoriety of no
pleasant sort. She charges Mr.. Bellamy
with having perpetrated an unheard of and
atrocious literary piracy. She says that he
has stolen the entire plot of his story, its
design, its plan, its purpose, its leading
characters, descriptions, etc., from serial
story published by her in the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette in 18S0-81, entitled
''The Narrative of Vera Zarovitch." To
support her charge she quotes number of
passages from Looking Backward" which
appear to have their counterparts in her
story. Before pretending to pass judgment
on the charge of plagiarism, wholesale or
retail, both books must be read-brief quo
tations from either will not suffice.
1t may be said, however, without preju-
dice that one of the principal claims for
Looking Backward" namely on the score
of novelty, must fall finally before the blast
from Cincinnati. Indeed the construction
OF ideal worlds on paper is by no means
new. 1t is as old as the world itself prob
ably. As to the similarity alleged to exist
between these two stories, we can readily
understand that it may exist and without
the least dishonesty upon Mr.. Bellamy's s
part, If two men draw upon their imagina-
ton for the enlargement of known facts in a
certain field it is more than likely that the
results will have certain characteristics in
common. In this case both authors started
from a platform socialistic in tendency, and
their imaginative products bore the impress
of this tendency. This naturally set up a
very distinct likeness. For the rest of their
imaginings they both seem to have under
taken simple magnifylng of the scientific
discoveries of to-day. OF course it may be
that Mr.. Bellamy is plagiarist, but it has
not been shown that he is yet to the salts
faction of anybody, as far as we know, ex-
eepting Vera Zarovitch herself.
Anyhow it is not great matter. Ten
years hence it will take deal of looking
backward to discover either of these visions.

plaintiff, in order to secure the fees, is not
stated, but it seems to be conceded that the
standard is low there as here.
The first remedy suggested is the abolition
of the fee system. This is plainly shown to
put premium on not only the practice re-
ferred to above, but upon the majority of the
others by which the lower courts can be
used for dishonest profit. Next it is urged
that the whole system of constsbles de-
pendent for their living on their activity in
bringing people into court on any pretext,
be supplanted by a trained, responsible and
organized force. Beyond this it is pointed
that the people should feel their response
bIlity by the selection of the best men to
take charge of the minor courts.
The last point is the strongest one, though
all are pertinent and valuable. The sub
jeet is one that calls for thorough discussion
and reform. In the meantime, very good
remedy is to promptly send every justice or
constable who prostitutes his legal power
for purposes of dishonesty, to the work
house or penitentiary.

BURDETTE'S LITTLE SPEECH.
The Humorist Gives Some sound Advice to
Sunday School Pupils.

The Humorist Gives Some sound Advice to
Sunday School Pupils.
From the Philadelphia Ledger.
The sixteenth anniversary of the Merton
Square Baptist SUNDAY School was celebrated
yesterday afternoon. Robert j. Burdette, who
has supplied the pulpit on Sunday evenings for
some time past at the chapel, in an address
said: ave are here to-day 16 years old. sweet
16, the sweetest and prettiest of all ages Some
people of the tender, pretty sex are best at
that age, and hold on to it wonderfully long,
but Sunday school is never at its best at that
age. Only few years ago, when meeting in
the old place, the school was baby and pre-,
cocious baby it was. 1 remember the day lit
tie boy dropped a lump of candy on the floor
and dog trying to eat it got its jaws stuck to-
gether. Age beauties, and this school will be
all the handsomer when it is 60 years old, and
still better, stronger and prettier when it cele-
brates its one hundredth anniversary, but I
don't think will come over on that occasion
The school is full of opportunities and the
children grasp them quicker than old people
Take, for instance, the old woman to whom a
man, working on a building on Broadway, had
given 16-foot plank to carry home. She
carried it, to the CONSERVATION of all passers-
by. A newsboy told her to break the plank
into kindling wood, and showed her how it
could be done by using the trucks and the
coaches He placed it on the curb, and the
vehicles ran over it, breaking it into small
pieces. Make use of everyone to advance the
interests of the school. Looking back on our
school history, and seeing what God hath
wrought, let us thank God that we can look
forward and take courage"
DR.. 81. A. Arnold, in brief address, presented
Mr.. Burdette with gold watch and chain on
behalf of the school. On the inner case of the
watch was inscribed, presented to Robert j.
Burdette by his Baptist friends of Merton
Square, as token of gratitude and esteem.
Oct. 6, 1889" Mr.. Burdette responded in brief
speech of thanks.
