Crime in HeligOland.

That there is practically no such thing
as crime in HeligOland we have all heard,
but it has been reserved for writer in
Blackwood to tell us why this is. 1t is, we
learn the inevitable result of living upon
so small an island. Even conduct of any
serious improper kind is practically impossi.
BILE where everybody knows everybody else's
doings and position, since for those who
transgress the rules of social decOrum there
is but one course open. This is self-banish
ment and to leave Heligoland forever is to its
sons more bitter than death. AS to crime of
the graver sort every would be criminal
knows that he cannot possibly escape from
this tiny speck in the North sea except with
the cOnnivance of the whole population. Last
year two housebreakers from Hamburg vent
ured to come across on professional visit.
They had a highly successful evenings work.
Every door stood open. They had only to
watch when no one was by, step boldly in
and carry away what they cared for. They
got altogether very handsome booty. But
they had forgotten one important detail
there was no steamer leaving HeligOland
the following day till o'clock. Long ere
then the thefts had been discovered, the
robbers lodged in prison and the stolen
property restored to its owners. So the
Heligolanders are honest. whether they like
it or n0t.-Sslected.

What Success Is,

Does the attainment of wealth constitute
success in life? and if not. what does2 The
above questions were prompted by the re-
marks made by Chaplain j. h. Albert a
few weeks past.
The first question we must answer en-
phatically. no. The answer to the second
question cannot be given with the same
terseness. What does constitute success in
life? In order to be successful in life it
does not become necessary to follow the
ideas expounded by various individuals,
for many of them endeavor to point out a
path over which they have not travelled,
and thus. they become but poor guides for
those who strive to reach the goal of sue
cess.
The pursuit of wealth has more effect
upon the failures of life than all other
causes combined. Every young man begin
ming the battle of life has some desires to be
gratified. some task to be fulfilled, some
restingplace for his ambition. Almost all
young men add riches to their desires. and
thus burden themselves with the proverbial
straw that breaks the camel's back; for in
their mad race for wealth they lose all other
desires. and thereby achieve failure. when,
had they but pursued their first desires they
would have gained success.

Are all Men Created Equal


The words of the immortal Declaration
of Independence do not express glittering
generalities. but everlasting verities.
Among these-''We hold these truths to be
self evident. that all men are created
equal" Jefferson did not mean that all
men are created equal in intellectual en-
downment. that they are ushered at birth
into equally favorable surroundings, that
they are born to an equally good heredity.
But all men are born equal in right; every
one has right to all he can earn and to
every use he can make of his opportunities.
No one may under any guse or pretence,
deprive him of his right to earn, and to hold
what he has earned. No one may stand in
the way of his winning any degree of ad.
vancement, or of his acquiring knowledge,
OF his holding his own views, and of his
communicating them to others. if they are
willing to listen.
Every man is born to an equality of right
under the law. The law should guarantee
to him. not merely the abstract possession
of his rights. but the exercise of them.
Every one is born to such all equality of
right that if he be in any way injured or
endangered. the whole machinery of sOci-
vindicate him. The legal rights of the
meanest and humblest, the most ignorant.
should be as jealousy guarded by the laws
as though the blue blood of generations
flowed in his veins. And the same armed
hand of justice that should protect him
from injury should visit punishment upon
the aggreSsOr. however low or high his sta
tiOn. This is the fundamental principle of
all law, and there can be no purity and
justice without it.
Politically, every man is born to such
rights as the constitution and laws of his
country afford him; and he should exercise
those rights as an Independent and intel
ligent citizen, and not as the slave of po-
litical party or Oligarchy.
Social equality is matter that cannot be
determined by statutory law; it is matter
which must and will take care of itself.
No man can or ought to be compelled, or
forbidden, to invite any one to his house as
guest, or to 60 to the house of any one
else as guest.
In the light of Christ's gospel and Christs
example, the weak, the ignorant. the Op.
pressed. the prisoner have a peculiar claim
upon the wise, the strong. the superior.
The spirit of the devil says, "Help the
strong and crush the weak and unfOrtu-
nate;" the spirit of Christ says. ''Help the
weak, raise the fallen, heal the sick:" I'VE
that are strong ought to bear the infirmitieS
of the weak" these intirmities are cOnsid-
cred in the light of a burden. The strong
are commanded to put their shoulder and
raise the load that would otherwise crush
the weak; and the weaker any one is, the
more claim he has. according to the morals
of the Man of Calvery. upon the wise and
strong. "CEsAR."
