over his life. She whom he adores turns from him to give her love to the Prus sian officer whose Greek beauty had been the model for his first picture Going back to work under the shadow of this deep sorrow, he looks upon the face of Christ upon his easel, and sees that once more he has failed. There is the beautiful face irradiating love, but there is not upon it the refining touch of sorrow that must have been in the face of Him who was "a man of sorrow and acquainted with grief" There was this wanting. He must set to work again, and paint only the beauty of the Divine Perfection, and the love that em- braced all mankind, but the Sorrow of the Man God who suffered for. our sins. The author, Hjalmer Hjorth Boyesen, thinks he has given the best work of his life in this singular story.
 The May Arena, which closes the third volume of this phenomenally brilliant and successful review, contains a re- markedly fine picture of the Rev. Minot J. Savage, made from recent photo- graph of tine great liberal divine. In this issue Mir. Savage appears in de- bate with Julian Hawthorne on the sub ject ''Is Spirltualism Worth Investigat- ing" An admirable picture of Julian Hawthorne and one of Professor Abram s. Isaacs, are also features of the May Arena. Probably the four papers which will attract most attention outside of the Hawthorne-Savage debate in this issue are those by c. Wood Davis on "The Wheat Supply of Europe and America;" Professor Emil Blum on Russia of Today" E. P. Prowell's critical study of the political life of Thomas Jefferson and the editors paper on "Is Socialism Desired ?"
 In the Oreriand Monthly for May and June will be published series of histor- ical papers more important than have been printed for long time. They are se- lected from the private papers of the late Senator Gwin, and tell, in original doc uments, the story of his famous attempt to persuade the Emperors Napoleon III. and Maximilian to adopt his scheme of bringing mining population into So- nora and Chihuahua under the protec- tion of the French troops. The papers are memorials and private letters to the
 anu to otlCt publiS hlChy anu letters the Senator wrote to his wife and daughter, giving his impressions of the Emperors and the court life in which he moved. He tells them that he finds a blunt American frankness is the best way to deal with Emperors, after all.
 The other exciting cause of the mob was the belief that the men who were killed were members of the Mafia, se cret society bound by the most rigid oaths and using murder as a means of maintaining it's discipline and carrying out its decrees. Of the existence of such society no reasonable man can, l think, have any doubt. That it has, as rule, confined its operations to the people who brought it here is, think, equally beyond question. But there is nothing to keep it necessarily within such bounds. It is anything but self limited, and in a political soil like that of New Orleans it was pretty sure to ex- tend. Now, if there is one thing more hateful to Americans than another, it is secret, oath-bound societies which em- ploy assassination as recognized means for carrying out their objects. The killing of the eleven prisoners had in it no race feeling whatever. There has been no hostility to the Italians in America, as such. On the contrary, they have been generally regarded hitherto as an industrious people, prone to fierce quarrels among themselves, but, in the main, thrifty, hardworking and well behaved. The men were not killed in the New Orleans prison because they were Italians, but because they were be- lleved to be members of secret-assas- sination society responsible for brutal murder. There was a further popular belief that this society was not only res- ponsible for the murder of the chief of police, but that 1t was extending its operations, that it was controlling juries by terror, and that it would gradually bring the Government of the city and the State under it's control. This belief, no doubt, was exaggerated, but it was certainly not without foundation. We have therefore, three facts here of the grayest import. First, an outbreak of lawlessness which resulted in the death of eleven men: second, belief that iuries could not be depended upon to administer justice and protect the lives of the citizens; third, the existence of secret society which was ready to use both money and murder to accomplish it's objects, even to the point of pervert- ing the administration of the law. It is my purpose to deal only with the last phase of this question. 1 believe that, whatever the proximate causes of the shocking event at New Orleans may have been, the underlying cause, and the one with which alone the people of the United States can deal, is to be found in the utter crrelessness with which we treat immigration to this country.-From "Lynch Law and Un- restricted Immigration" by he Hon.
