soldier who wrought more practical good
in India and Britain by.his clever engineer
ING schemes. road making. fortifca-
ton building. railway planning, than
his sef-advertising messmates ever
did with their swords, pens and
laws combined 4 modest man-marvel of
marvels in a marvellous age. One who was
happier in the quiet doing OF good work
than in hearing il trumpeted about after
wards. He did splendid. solid. daring sol
der work AT the relief of Lucknow, at the
capture of Tantia Topec, of Gwalioe, at the
seige of Pekin. and at the sacking OF the
Summer Palace. In the thick of the fight
his field-glass was shot out of his grasp,
his vest ripped open by bullets and his body
received three other shots. He led the I'M
nrecedented expedition across the rocky
/ highlands of Abyssinia 10 rescue a handful
of missionaries from King Theodore $
chains. Loaded with hOnors. every one OF
which he had as really earned by personal
service as ever a workman earned wages,
I ord Napier remained the most modest of
them all. and richly has he deserved the
/ last honor of repOsing his bones alongside
Nelson and Wellington beneath the dome

Ihefe are as many Scll-llituc HicI to-uds
in the English House of Lords pro
portionally, as in the House of Com
mons. So far from it being true that
the sporting or younger peers legislate for
the country, the fact is they never attend.
The share of work done in the upper house
is entirely done by peers who owe their
position to their brains and the prolonged
experience of Woodworking life. more
than the members Of the Commons
do to their public achievements.

Gladstone. radical reformer though
he is. created no fewer tnan
seventv-four peers while he was premier
.ords Beaconsfield and Salisbury together
having made only sixty-four; and as Tory
peers are supposed to be as rich as Ameri-
can Senators. it may be stated that where
as the average rent-roll of the sixteen mem
bers of the Gladstone Cabinet, OF whom
eight were peers, averaged 81 300 year,
those of the sixteen members of the Sails
bury Cabinet, of whom also eight are peers,
average only sl2, 500 year.
Next to the resignation OF Prlncn BIS
marck and the appointment OF General
Caprivi as his successor in the Chancel-
lorate. no subject has so much occupied the
public mind during the past few weeks as
the International Labor conference now IN
session here. 1t was opened on March ID,
in the large hall of the Congress at the
Reichskanz Palace in the Wilhelmstrasse
rather unceremoniously; for beyond a
speech by Minister Baron Won Berlepsch
welcoming the delegates in the name OF the
Emperor. there were no formalities.
Baron Won Berlepsch, who guides the de-
alterations of this notable body. is the re-
cent appointee for Minister of State. For
many years he was in Office in the Rhine
Province. where he had ample opportunl-
ties to familiarize himself with the labor
question and more particularly with regard
to the condition Of miners and lronworkers.

He is an able. energetic man, in the prime
of life and with remarkable 0ratOrical tai
ent. His wife is the daughter of Baron
Tiele Winkler. one Of the richest coal mine
proprietors in Upper Silesi and Baron Ber-
lepsch has made a special study OF the min
ing affairs of that district, which has been
very valuable to him in the present emer-
gency.
Among the ten men who compose the
German delegation is one who would any
where be regarded as commanding in an
intellectual sense. He is the Furstbishop
of Breslau. his Eminence Kopp the cleric
through whose skilfull intOrmediation peace
was made between Germany and the Vati-
can. He still stands as the pacific infiu-
ence between them. Bishop Kopp is the
son of "A small farmer in Hanover, native
of Hildesheim, and is still comparatively
young He is the leading spirit among the
the German Catholic clergy, and is regard
ed as a good patriot and warm advocate
of the labor interest.
4 practical figure in the Conference is
that of Commencement Heyl. of Worms.
He is large employer of labor and the
owner of extensive leather factories there.
and il is on record that under his manage
ment there have been no disturbances
among his workmen and no strikes. His
men are well cared for, and he is spe-
ciallv SOLICITORS that they should not come
in contact with Socalistic societies, of which
he is a good hater Another large employer
of labor is Herr Koeth, of Alsace, the pro
prietor of one Of the most extensive cot
ton factories in that district and the
special representative Of the Alsatian pop
ulation. whose condition he thoroughly un-
derstands The other members of the Ger
man delegation are mainly government
clerks employed in mining affairs or in the
manufacturing districts. These furnishall
the necessary data and statistics to the
Conference. The secretary TO the German
delegation is Gegationsrath Kayser who is
famous for his requirements as a linguist

4 dispatch from Peloskey, Mich. says;
H. G.. Peister, boot and shoe merchant,
received Wednesday three cases of shoes
from Georgetown. Mass. One of the cases
was somewhat broken, and when the dozen
shoe boxes were taken out. in seven of them
one pound cartridges of dynamite We're
found packed with the shoes II was at
first supposed TO be an April fool Joke, but
an examination showed that the cartridges
were of high explosive power One was
exploded. and the violence of the conclusion
indicated that the seven We're sufficient to
blow a whole block sky high. II is supposed
that the dynamite was packed in the box
with the intention of blowing up some de
pot or wrecking a train The box showed
plainly that il had been opened before II
was received here Fortunately the cart
ridges were frozen and did not thaw out
during the transit, the plot being thus
thwarted."

counter At Is o'clock another clerk came
on watch and Wakely went to him saying
MY names Wakely. Guess I'll re-
main"
"Thank you, Mr. Wakely. Let's see,

The man seemed dumbfounded AT some

the past few weeks worthy a glance. BY
virtue of her rank. precedence belongs to
the Viscountess Kingsland. who died the
other day in her eighty-siXth year. Poor
lady. What commentary on the 1aDled
luxury of aristOcracy was her titularly en-
nobled life. So lowly in her high estate
that the Jenkinses long ago dropped her out
of their courtly chronicles; and YOU do not
find fully set forth all the fine story OF her
birth in the ermine or her lucky leap into

ping-stone which raised her into her pauper
nobility
She was the widow of the sixth Viscount
/ Kingsland who died in 1888. and with ms
death the title expired. Kingsland Is one
of the populous suburbs Of London, and II.
| as is presumable. some portion OF the lana

have been among the richest danes Of
England But whatever her property was
she lost it by the fraud of her trustee
nearly half a century ago. Fine words
