Puritan Idea of a Gentleman.
Magazine of American History.

Magazine Oh American
In an address On the two hundred and
fiftieth anniversary of the settlement of
New Haven, William L. Kingsley says:
"The Pur1tans gave to the world lew
idea of what it is to be a gentle man.
With the views respecting manhood,
which they receive from the Bible, they
conceived new idea as TO what Is the
proper way to treat others. Polished
manners and a gracious department to
ones equals is not enough, according to
the Puritan idea. A man may smile and
smile and be a villain There should be
such delicacy of perception of the rights
and feelings of others as to lead a person
not only to avoid giving offense to any,
high or low, out the perception should be
mpanied by such a treatment of all
as reveals friendly feeling.
"Ihis idea of gentleman did not exist
before the time of tie Puritans. | do
not say that there were not persons who
had such character. But Shakespeare
uses the word gentleman more than five
hundred times, and not once TO designate
anything more than a person of high
social position. One of the most elo-
quent English essay lists OF modern times,
Rev. Charlea Kingsley, dignitary of the
Anglican church, says that Puritan and
not the cavalier conception of what a
British gentlemen should be is the one
accepted by the whole British nation at
this day"

Geological history brings before us,
says Archibald GeIkie, many facts we'll
calculated to impress our minds with
the great antiquity of our planet, and
with the marvellous chain of changes by
which the present order of things has
been brought about, We learn from il
that the mountains and valleys have not
coma suddenly inSo exis tence, such as we
now see them, put have been formed
gradually, by long series of processes
similar to those which are even now slow
Iy doing the same work. We discover
that every part of the land urder our
feet can yield up Its story, if we only
know how to question it. And, strangest
% all, we find that the race. of plants
and animals which now tenant land and
sea are not the first or original races, but
they were preceded by others, and again
by others still more remote. We see that
there has been apOn the earth a history of
living things, as well as of dead matter.
At the beginning of that wonderful his
tory we detect traces merely of Lowry
forms, like the foraminifera of the Allan
tic ooze. At the end we are brought fac
to face with man-thinging, working,
restless man, battling steadily with the
powers Of nature, and overcoming them
one by one, by Learnt ing how to obey the
laws which direct them.

Twenty Lives Lost by the Burning of a Steam
er on the Mississippi,
New ORLEANs.--The Oaachita steam
er John M. Hanna was burned near
Plaquemine, 100 miles from here, about
10 o'clock Tuesday morning, and twenty
lives were lost, including the chief engi-
neer of the boat. The Hanna was booked
to land at Plaquemine, and was but short
distance above that town when q negro
roustabout, who was standing near the
boilers, cried out that the boat was on
fire. The next moment the flames burst
from a big tier of cotton bales. The
promptest steps were taken to get the
boat in shore. She was loaded with cot
ton IN very dry condition. Many per-
sons persisted by leapiug overheard IS
the boat neared the shore. Three or four
were burned TO death.

FEW days ago the coal operators of
central Illinois made an agreement "for
a consideration" with the Northwestern
pool TO confine themselves to certain
limited territory In order that the opera
tors of neighboring states might the
better control output and prices for their
sections. The Ohio operators have been
hoIcing meetings at Columbus this week
for similar purpose-the regulation of
output and maintenance of uniform
prices throughout the state. The mem
bers of this organized monopoly control
an annual product of 100000 tons or
about tVo-tbirds Of the production of the
state. Whether the prices established
are reasonable or those of public plumber
ers cannot be said but the evidence is in
favor of the latter presumption. The ex-
actions of the ring have aroused the PEG
pie of Cincinnati, who are being urged
by the newspapers TO use gas for fuel or
anything to shake off the monopoly.
On this kind of coal the tariff tax is IS
cents ton, levied for the protection OF
just such combinations as this. The fe5
tival of ''Peace on earth, good will to
men" is inaugurated this year with the
formation Of a hour-miners' combina-
tion and several coal and other pools to
make bread, fuel and the necessaries or
life as dear as possible.

THE Atlanta Constitution, reviewing
the history of the Halves murder with its
conBs q uences at Birming ham, says that
there is little doubt of Hawes- guilt; that
Mayor Thompson was in er For in refus
ing TO call out the troops when riot was
threatened; that Sheriff Smith was right
in defending the jail-he might have fred
too soon, but if the mob had taken HAYES
without resistance, IL lives would have
been spared, but so lives might have been
lost hereafter and elsewhere, in retrieving
the lesson of his shameful surrender.
The memory of Sheriff Smith firing on
the Birmingham mob will restrain many
a mob in the future. Finally, "and most
Important" the crime of HAYES was not
the bottom cause of the riot; "there was
distrust of the process of law and the
sternness and promptness of the courts
In Birmingham. Fifty murders have
been committed in that city, and but one
man hanged" This is the old lesson of
many lynchings.
