"The propagators of Christianity were

1000 years ago as are the Anarchists to-
day. The term Protestant IL its day was
as odious and repulsive as the term
anarchy is to-day. The idea of abolition
was received with the same criticism,
censure and condemnation.
"Now anarchism on its negative side is
q protest against the exercise Of human
authority over the natural and minute
liberty of many. IteXalts the individual
above collective society, and holds that
man as an individual is superior to the
institutions he has created, that the right
of the individual is supreme, and denies

there is very little true affection among
the EsquimauX, and even a mothers love
is an uncertain quantity. She never
fOndleS nor pets them. and when they
are ailing she neglects them just as a
brute does. AS soon as they are able to
sit alone they are put upon the fur COW
cred floor to take care of themselves,
and there they sit day after day, if the
expression may be allowed concerning
that latitude mutfied in their little seal
skin Jackets the fur side turned in, with
their little arms hugging their bodies to
keep warm. AS they spend their lives
in this constrained position their arms
become bent and deformed All the
women have the upper arm short and
crippled, but the boys, who live more
out of doors, escape the deformity.
The ESquimauX women have very in
doient as we'll as a very chilly time of
it. There is no sweeping. busting, cook
ing or washing to do. The bill of fare
consists entirely Of whale blubber, bear
meat and fish, and these articles are
eaten raw and frozen. The furniture
of an EsQuimau'S house is, as might
be expected. very simple. The walls
floor and seats of the hut are aiIof snow.
There is rug OF furS on the floor cush-
fur around the walls. The furs are
sewed with fish bones for needles and
reindeer sinews for thread. There are
few rude implements. all made of bone.
All working tools and hunting imple-
ments are made of the same material.
The flesh Of the reindeer, which is the
sole article of food in Lapland. cannot be
eaten in Greenland on account osits
coarseness. There is no outdoor occupa-
ton for the women. except that once in
a while a man will give his wife an air
ing, which she greatly needs, on his sled.
The only bed in the house is a large bag
made of fur into which the whole faEi-
ly creeps at bedtime and slumber until
they set tired. They go to bed when
they are sleepy and eat when hungry

But, strange to say, marriage IS not re-
garded as family tie. The slightest tie
of kindness is an enduring bond, but the
wife is treated as MISTRESS or servant,
from whom the man may separate when
ever he pleaseS. When the wife becomes
a mother, however, her position is more
assured The husband is always the
head of the family, and after him come
the sons, even if they are quite small,
because they are regarded as the future
of the family, who are to provide for
their parents in old age. AS long as the
parents live, therefore, the sons dwell
with them and contribute to their sup
port East Greenlanders often marry be-
fore they reach an adulta age, if they are in
condition to support a woman. No one
is permitted to marry any relation that
is as near as a cousin. Slillful hunters
frequently have two wives. This is not
often against the wish of the first wife,
who, i'll many cases, when she is unable
to prepare all the skins her husband
takes, demands that he shall take an
other wife. Sometimes man takes two
wives in order that he may have two
rowers to his boat. But Captain Holm
saw no instance in which a man had
more than two wives. The ESquimauX
family lives entirely on meat, and they
have no regular meals nor meal hours,

incaSCd in an iron shoe, While their arms
are in constant exercise in the throwing
of the harpoon. During the winter these
ESquimaX live in long houses made OF
stone and turf There is only one house
in each settlement, and one house often
contains as many as ten families These
houses are from twenty-fOur to fifty feet
i'm length according to the number of
families to be accommodated, and from
twelve to sixteen feet in width. They
are generally built on land sloping to-
ward the sea, and the front, where the
entrance opens for light are, generally
faces the ocean. The oldest man III the
house is regarded as the chief of
the household, provided he has been a
good hunter, or has son who is Skillful
in the chase. They consider it their first
duty to care for those who live in the
same house with them, and especially
their kindred. So long as they live to-
gether in the same house, each inmate
has his proper share of the food and
clothing, so that q sort of communism
exists This communism is of great
benefit to them, as otherwise they would
be without help in case OF accidents
while hunting. These EsquimauX are
subject to no determined law, but their
social life is based upon rules to which
they tacitly give legal character, and
the transgrcssion of which at least eX
poses them to the reprobation of their
comrades. Tn some respects their rules
impose upon them as great restraints as
are imposed by the laws OF civilized So
ciety. The average population OF each
house is thirty-tWO persons. The bulid-
ing is partly under ground, and the walls
are very thick The space within is di-
yided into compartments, something like
the stalls in a stable, one family occupy
ing each STALL In the spring time the
Esquimaux leave their turf and stone
huts and live in tents. The community
is then broken up, and only near
relatives live together. 1t some

height, weighs 40 pounds, and was born
on the east coast Of Greenland. She calls
herself an EsquimauX, but she is very
unlike the EsquimauX Indians on the
west coast Of the island, and belongs
really to separate race of people, which
numbers about 500 souls, and is rapidly
becoming extinct
The Danish historians say that this
race is the descendant of d Danish colony
founded at Angmagsalik, in $50, by Eric
the Red Miss Krarer saws that the ira
ditions of her country make its people
the descendants of the scandinavian
seamen who were wrecked on the coast
from time to time. and were never able
to escape. But however the colony
may have been. planted, the com
plexion and language of the peo-
pie demonstrate their Caucasian
origin. When the dirt is scraped off
their faces they are as fair as any Dane.
Several Scandinavian discoveries have
visited them in the interests Of history

made in 1929, Holm's in 1888, and Nor
denskiold's in 1888. Captain Holm has
only recently returned to Denmark, and
has made an elaborate and almost heart
rending report concerning Miss Krarer's
countrymen. He lived among them two
years, and took more than one census of
them They then numbered 54S, of
whom Alb inhabited the fiords around
Angmagsalik. They are much smaller
than Europeans, but larger than other
EsquimauX. One remarkable fact
concerning their physique is noted
by Captain Holm. Their arms
are of ordinary length and very
muscular, while their legs are short,
slender, and weak. Tho cause of this
physical development is obvious. The
men live by the harpoon They spend
their lives in diminutive boats, in which
their legs are as motionless and con-
strained as the foot of Chinese woman

ering of prominent society people. Just
as the last solemn words were being
spoken which were TO bind the beauti-
ful Miss Saunders to Mr. Harrison a
well known lawyer Of Omaha, one of the
guests and an intimate friend of the
Harrisons, without moments warning
dropped dead where he stood. The effect
of such sad affair may be imagined.
The scene of happiness was changed in a
moment to one of mourning. The bridal
wreaths and roses were trampled under
foot in the wild rush for assistance, and,
where but q few minutes before the
strains of the wedding march were re-

and the weeping of friends were heard.

John Rich, the son OF Christopher Rich,
tho manager of the theatre in Lincoln's
Inn Fields, London, was very illiterate
man, with strong dramatic instincts.
From his inability 10 speak upon the
stage he originated the silent harlequin,
AID by more dumb action could rival the
power and pathos Of the most accom-
plished tragedian.
Previous 10 this, and, indeed, for some
time afterward. harlequin was a speak
ing part, and David Garrick PLAYED him
as such in the theatre at Goodman Fields.
1t was in the year l717 that Rich ap-
peared in pantomine called Harlequin
Executed"
Jackson, in speaking of Rich's wonder
full abilities as a pantomimist, says: "On
his last revival of The Sorcerer' saw
him practice the Matching of harlequin
by the heat of the sun, IN order to point
it out to Miles, who. though excellent
in the line of dumb significance, found
it no easy matter to retain the lesson
Rich had taught him. This certainly
was a masterpiece in dumb show. From
Ilc nIst CiuPp1iS VI llIc egg, HiS IecelF-
ing of motion, his feeling of the ground,
his standing upright to his quick harle-
quin trip round the empty shell, through
the whole progression, every limb had
its tongue and every motion voice,
which spoke with most miraculous organ
to the understanding and sensation of
the observers"
The tight fitting spangled dresses which
are now worn by all harlequins were not
adopted until the present century Scot
tish Stage.
