Helping southern colleges.

Not the least noticeable among the many
evidences of increasing prosperity in the
south is the fact that the southern people
are making donations ami bequests to
southern educational institutions. It is
true that these donations and requests are
not very large. NOR are they very numer-
Gus. but they are hardly less gratifying on
that account 1t cannot reasonably be ex-
pected that at present they will be either
very large or very numerous The south
was left by the war in a state Of bank
ruptcy, and for awhile it was about as
much as her people could do to pro-
vide themselves with the necessaries of
life, but by hard work and business sagac-
ity many of them have restored their
fortunes, and there is no doubt that there is
less actual want in the south than in any
other part Of the country. With the gradual
restoration to prosperity there has cropped
out a very decided interest in southern
educational work The different states
have made as large appropriations for the
public schools as they could afford, and, as
has been said, individuals are helping the
cause OF higher education by liberal gifts
or money. Roanoke college. in Virginia,
Tor instance, has received eight requests
since the war, and six of them were from
native Virginians. Donations have been
made to Georgia colleges, and similar insti-
buttons in nearly all of the southern states
have been benefited in like manner
The increasing disposition to help these
educational institutions should be encour-
aged. The southern colleges, as rule, are
not very well equipped, and while most of
them have teachers of the highest order of
ability, the pay of the teachers is not
as great as it should be, and only the devo-
tlon OF many of them to the institutions
with which they are connected induces
them to remain in their present positions.
As the wealth of the South increases, how
ever, the requests and donations will be
larger and more frequent, and it is not at
all unreasonable to expect that before many
years nearly all of the Southern colleges
will be provided with money sufficient to
meet their needs.

A Good Word for Russia.

Nathaniel Paige, aresident of w Washington,
ID. c., scholar and a traveller, in a recent
interview, published in the New York Mail
and Cypress. says a good word for Russia.
He has visited Russia. and has talked with
her statesmen and also her nihilists, and be
has no hesitation in saying that Mr.. George
KEENAN,. whose articles in the Century
Magazine on Russian prisons and Siberian
exiles have attracted great deal of atten-
ton, takes very narrow view of Russian
affairs. According to Mr.. Page, Mr.. Ken
nan has picked out the blemishes in Russia
and enlarged upon them until he has created
widespread impression that the Russians
are little better than barbarians, and the Rus.
sian officials are monsters of cruelty and in
humanity.
Mr.. KEENAN,, so Mr.. Paige thinks, is
inspired by a feeling of hostility to Russia,
and in his article on the Russian prison
system has brought out in strong light only
those things which are discreditable to the
Russian government. He has failed to
notice those things which show the true
character of the czar's government.
Mr.. Paige says that the crimes for which
people in Russia are exiled would be
punished by hanging in this country. The
general impression about Siberia he declares
to be incorrect. The portions of it to which
the great majority of the exiles are sent are
not cold and bleak and sterile They have
a climate somewhat similar to that of North
and South Carolina, and the soil is exceed
ingly rich.
According to Mr.. Paige, the nihilists have
to be suppressed with strong hand. To
deal with them leniently Id be to en-
danger the existence of the government.
They say that they are striving for constitu-
tional government. They are striving for
nothing of the sort. If they could have
their way they would bring about condi-
tion of anarchy from which the whole Rus
sian people would suffer-
The fact must not be overlooked, says
Mr.. Paige, that Russia is a young country.
and in the comparatively brief period Of
200 years she has accomplished wonders
She has liberated millions of serfs and is
now engaged in lifting them up-that is,
preparing them for a freer government
Russia is not yet ready for constitutional
government. The government she has is
perhaps the only kind that is suited to her
condition. 1t is a strong government, a
government of force, but no other kind
could keep the nation, in its present stage
of development, intact.
1t is mistake, Mr.. Paige says, to think
that Russia is progressive. She is one
of the most progressive nations of Europe,
and her advancement will compare favor
ably with that of any other. Mr.. KEENAN,
has given only the views of the nihilists,
who are chiefly young students, who have
obtained all sorts of queer and impractica-
BILE ideas from their German professors,
who, as a rule. are atheists. MIR. Paige be-
lieves, apparently, that if a foreigner should
obtain his impressions of this country from
anarchists in Chicago and other cities, and
should put them in print, they would not
differ greatly from the impressions which
Mr.. KEENAN, appears to have of Russia.

The Girl 7 hey Say Stanley is to Wed.

The Girl hey Say Stanley is to Wed.
Hugh Capper, an artist of Detroit, says
the Cleveland Leader went to the same
school with Miss Dorothy Tenant, said by
cable dispatch to be engaged to Henry
M. Stanley. They attended the Slade school Of
art at University College, London. Mr.. Capper
said to-day: ''She ives tall, lovely girl of 10
or 20. and her very large eyes attracted the at
tention more than any other feature. She was
one of the few lady pupils to whom our pro-
fessor, NJ. A. Legros, took fancy because she
was so earnest and persevering in conquering
the difficulties of her chosen profession She
attacked her work with the determination of a
man, and not in the half-hearted. nibbling way
that most women approach the profession of
art. Her easel was often quite close to mine
and was always struck with the boldness and
character of her work. She was a very charm
ing girl, and universally liked by everybody in
the school. Among her other charms, Miss
Tenant possessed a most wonderful complex
ion, and sat for one of Sir John E. Millais's
single figure pictures. Her complexion was
probably what the great English portrait painter
wanted, as otherwise the picture was not much
of a success"
