AN OUTLINE OF THEsaTORY.

DR.. e. ). DILLoMsSa5 by Tolstoi's au-
thority, has sssssiated the novel from the
letter addressed to my London office:
ttTharsen OF the story is in brief as follows:
It begins with q conversation between the guests
fysho were staying at the house OF rich man.
They all agreed that life as they were leading it
was miserable; they all decided that a radical
change il their mode OF living necessity
from any and every point of view, principally,
however, from the moral standpoint. A young
was the first who decided to effect the
change in himself, but his friends dissuaded
him on the ground of his youth. middle aged
man followed suit, but he dissuaded be-
cIuse of his obligations to his wife, etc. An
old man next declares his intention OF reform
ing, but all cry out against such folly. as he has
already contracted habits and acquired tastes
which are q second nature and cannot be
changed. Then follow some reflections of the
author and the prelude is ended.
''This is but the Northumberland gives the
key mole of the story, which is supposed to
take place during the reign OF the Emperor Ira
gan in Kilrkis, Cilicia. The dramatis per-
soma two young students. Pamphilius and
Julius, their parents and wise old Pagan doc
tor.
their studies and Pamphilius returning home
becomes Christian. Julius in after years Wis
Its him, discusses the problem OF life with him,
reasons against Christianity, is almost con-
WINGED tn It he should embrace its tenents, but
meeting with Use doctor IS induced to put it
off till he grows wiser and older. He might re-
pent of a resolution taken before he thoroughly
understood its import. Years pass away, he
marries. Then comes g description of his mar
ried life. which is that of most married lives to-
day. His love evaporates and his happiness
too. He again sees his friend Pamphilius,
again discusses the same questions; his OBJ
jections are removed and he seriously thinks OF
becoming Christian, but the wise doctor meets
him again and he again defers it on the ground
of the duty he has contracted to his wife and
children, whom it would be immoral to
abandon.
Years pass away, his wife dies. He sees
Pamphiius, discusses the same questions, the
same things are repeated. At last, old man,
he is insulted by his own children, who, be-
lieying him dead, celebrate the event with
banquet. He then leaves everything in anger
and goes over TO the new sect, in spite OF the
exhortations OF the dying doctor to be courage
Gus and bear his misfortunes ike man. Here
he falls into des pair at the thought that he has
brought to Chr istianity the ruins Of a life. But
he is comforted and treasured by his new breth-
rem.
1T cannot be published in Russia, because
the Censor there will not allow any remarks o5
Tolstoi's, good or bad on Christianity, to ap-
pear; nor any Of his views on social questions
to be published

THE NEED OF HOTELS.

Hotels attract or repel strangers.
Texas is filed with people prospecting
for homes or investment. Fort Wort h
is the entrepot of all the western half of
the state, made so by virtue of its rail-
road facilities and Is naturally the best
hotel town in Texas. Fort Worth should
have the finest hotels in the state and
ample hotel Accommodations. Hotel
population spends money, and every
dollar thus expended in @ town is new
blood to the trade system. The hotel
population of Fort Worth ought to be ten
times larger than 1t Is and would be ten
times larger if Fort Worth had the hotels
to accommodate the people who would
make this city headquarters. The
hotels of this city were erected to meet
its needs years ago, and they are made
quate now.

Senator Faulkner
Thinks that the Tariff and Force Bills
Nay Beth Pass.
IspeciGl 10 the Wheeling Register. !


CHARLESTON, w. Va, July 21.-
Senator Faulkner was in the city to-
night, returning from Winfield where
he spoke to-day, to Washington,
where he will speak on the tariff bill
in the Senate. In conversation to-
night with Register correspondent
and others he got on the subject of
the tariff bill and told number of
amusing anecdotes about McKinley's
troubles in getting his bill fixed up,
especially about the section on hides,
which was changed four times. The
committee had determined to put a
duty on hides and in his report, Nc
Kinley wrote a long argument on the
necessity for putting high tariff on
hides. Then they changed the sec
ton and reported hides on the free
list, but forgot to change the argu-
ment in his report, so the report was
made advocating high tariff on hides
and showing its necessity, while in
the schedule accompanying the re-
port, hides were put on the free list.
"What do you think about the tar
lift bill, Senator; will it pass?'
Eyes, 1 don't believe the Repub-
licans in Congress will, at this stage
of the proceedings, dare not to pass
it. They have carried it so far and
will probably pass it,
elbow about the Force bill; will
they pass that, too?''
"Well, I'm not so sure about that.
If the Senate passes the bill at all, it
will be vita the clause about the re-
turning board left out. In that case
or if any change is made in the bill,
it will have to be returned to the
House and referred to conference
committee, and before they can dis
pose of it, we hope to be able to eff
feet an adjournment. Still it is pos
sible they may rush it through The
Senator made many friends in his
short stay here, and leaves tonight
for his duties in the Senate.
