THE KICKAPOOS.
Efforts to Purchase Their Lands
Not Successful.

NOC SucCeSSIui.
ST. LOUIS, Jan. 2.-Advices from the
Indian Territory say that though the
efforts of the United States commission
which visited the Kickapoos to nego-
tiate for the purchase of their lands
were not successful they were not en-
tirely barren of good results. Yester-
day the chief of the tribe, Chiquon-Ko-
Oh-Ko, gave the attitude of the tribe CD
the allotment question. Recently an offer
of a little money and more ponies has
turned the tide IN favor of the allotment
proposition, which would place them
on equal footing with the Sac and Fox
tribes. The proposition they will ac-
cept will give to each head of family
160 acres of land, to the wife eighty, and
to the minor children forty, the residue
land to be sold at $1.25 per acre, and the
proceeds placed to their credit. with
which they desire to build school
house and stock their farms. The chief
is in hopes that the negotiations will be
closed on that basis, and that congress
will ratify the agreement.

FOG IN NEW YORK.
Serious Disaster on an Elevated
Railway.

Railway.
NEW YORK, Jan. AIT 9:30 o'clock
this morning collision occurred on
the elevated railroad at Eighth avenue
and One Hundred and Fifty-ffth street.
The train drawn by Engine No. 265 ran
into the rear car of the train ahead dur
ing the fog, it was supposed. Dewitt
Kemner, fremen of 265, had both his
legs and right arm injured. He was re-
moved to the Manhattan hospital. 1t is
feared that the injured man will lose
his legs and arm. No other damage has
been reported. The fog has been grow
ing denser every hour, and navigation
on the rivers is this afternoon almost
impossible. The elevated railroads are
running little more than half their
usual number of trains, and these go
creeping along at hardly horse car
pace. Two more collisions are reported
this afternoon. but beyond the smashing
of two engines and half doze cars no
damage was done.

battle OF White Clay creek. The troops

the school. At the end of this valley is
a narrow canon, not over seventy-fve
feet wide and 800 yards long, opening
into small, circular park. 1t was the
object of the Indians to draw them into

lie at the roots of the Christian life are sp- prehended, and the feeling of them Is often genuine when the definition of them Is in adequate When the church Is seen to be the constant inspirer of human progress, there will be no skeptics but thoss to whom human progress is indifferent. The best thing that Christians can do for the faith of mankind is toexhibit the real power of Christ and of his spirit as redeeming influence in the whole wide field of humxn life. It is impossible for thoss who take a narrow view of Christianity to be frank ly h opeful. They see that the secular fields of human activity are winning upon men more and more, while Christianity, considered merely as system of worship, doctrine and benefcsnce, is barely holding its ground"
 In view of such conception of Chris tianity, we may, and in fact must, ask ourselves this radically significant ques- don: Does not the tendency noted by Dr. Todd, to wrongly make devotion of life in imitation of Christ secondary, and to rest in that worship of Christ which is a mere attitude of mind towards an ideal concep- ton, go back to Paul and the first disci- pleship generally, constituting their de- parture from the genuine teaching of Christ, and thus making the Christianity
 
 dogmatic faith, an obstructive scaffolding to be removed, that the real Christianity of Christ, based in perfectly pure natural religion, and built to the height of univer- sal supernaturalism, may be made mani fiesta religion primarily of love to man, and completed by trust in God; religion of service, and not religion of salvationi
 An adequate learning will show that the Bible idea and the dogmatic conception of faith are of the Jew mind and not of Christ, and that the dogmatic system of fall, atonement, salvation on devised plan, etc., are survival of the primitive hea- thenism of the early Hebrews, which the masters of Hebrew wisdom had outgrown when they concurred in saying that their whole scripture was summed up in "What doth the Lord require of thee but to do justly, to love mercy and to walk humbly with thy Godin More sig ni6eantly still, adequate scholarship clear ly brings out the fact that when Paul cited Habakkuk's ''The upright shall live by his faithfulness, he used a new rabbinical rendering which put faith for faithfulness, and left to Luther the stumbling block over which he fell into a system of error.

PRIVATE HANKS.

 The collapse of the Bunnell & Scranton bubble has again called attention sharply to an evil from which this city has suffered much. That is, the mixture of banking and brokerage, without any supervision of the banking, and without any particular consoientiousness in the brokerage We suppose it is possible to pay some interest on deposits, without eventually gobbling the deposits, and we suppose it is possible to carry on brokerage without such specu- lation by the broker as will eventually lead to the financial breaking of his trusting and sanguine customers. But it has not been done in this town, and some people who care about the financial interests of the community think something ought to be done about it. We are told that the legislature is to be appealed to to make law that shall prevent bank ing and speculative brokerage being done by the same people under the same roof, and that shall provide adequate super vision of anybody who takes other peoples money under the high-sounding title of banker.
 This is right. It should have been done long ago. Spectators do not ask or need much protection. They do sometimes e1- pect that their broker will not operate against them, but perhaps even this is too much to hope. But people who deposit money in bank for the sake Of seeing ii grow and fructify, even at slow rate, are 1 entitled to all the protection that the law can give them. They should not be made victims of incompetent and dishonest brokers

Athens.
From the Con

From the Contemporary ReTiev-l
 It is impossible for any one who visits Athens not to imbibe something of its unique artistic inspiration of the beauti- full; it is here alone the most perfect con- ception of the ideal is to be found, and that architecture and sculpture reveal forms of the beautiful which no conven- ton can alter or amend. Yet, apart from the Greek sculptures recently collected in the museums here, and to be found in the museums of Rome, Naples, London and Paris, how few are the relics of old Ath- ens-the Acropolis, with its glorious Par thenon, Propylea and Erechtheum; the Temple of Theseus, the few columns of the Temple of Jupiter, and one or two other remains.
 It is only by degrees that one can req lize their full significance and importance. I have now, at three intervals, made many visits to the Acropolis. I have found that on each occasion of first visit I have gone through the same sensations-at first of disappointment, of inability to take measure of the size of the buildings of bewilderment at the amount of debris of columns and stones lying about; of sur prise in respect of the Parthenon, to find what wreck it is, and that it is almost cut into two separate fragments of ruin by the explosion of the powder magazine by Venetian shells in 1887, (till when the building had remained almost intact,) of the difficulty of reconstructing in ones mind the outlines of the building as 6 whole It is only hy degrees that one l finds it impossible to fill up the gaps, to trace the connection between what exists and what is gone, and to reconstruct in ones imagination the temple as it must | have been in form if not in color. When this at last comes to the eye, one begins to appreciate the massive grace and exquisite beauty of detail and delicacy of tracing of | the lines of this marvellous work; the of tener one goes there the more it grows | upon one, the more the lines fill in, and | the better able one is to understand it, and to pay it due reverence.

 Strenuous efforts have been made in Massachusetts to abolish the lottery evil. Judge Blodgett of the superior court has decided that the offer by merchant to give specified present to persons buying a given amount of goods at his store does not constitute violation of the law passed in 1884 providing for the punishment by fine or imprisonment of anyone who should sell goods with the notice. adver- tisement or inducement that anything else, other than that specifically stated to be the subject of sale, should be in any way connected with the sale, by way of gift or prize. The case was that of the Commonwealth against T. H. Con1ey. of Roslindale, grocer who offered to give to anyone who bought $25 worth of goods of him with cash, and who had his card punched for that amount, any one of sev- eral pieces of silver ware shown in his window. Conley was prosecuted for vio- lation of the law of 1884, but his counsel argued that the law was intended to apply to schemes that resembled lotteries and not to transactions which had no element of uncertainty. The court sustained him and directed the jury to bring in a verdict of not guilty, on the ground that no of- fense had been committed.
 When the law gets so that man cannot sell or cannot give anything away people will be pretty we'll protected.

 Colonel Robert G. Ingersol's first great climb on the ladder of fame is said to have been made when he addressed Fourth of July meeting held on Sunday. This was in 1859 or 1860. The Germans of Peoria, where MT. Ingerson was then young law yer, were unable to obtain permission from the mayor to hold their celebration on that day; but in defiance of his prohibition they went outside of the city limits and carried out their programme, Colonel Bob" having been selected as their ora tor. He acquitted himself impressively, but took occasion to denounce the iliber- ality and narrow -mindedn,,ss of some of his ministerial friends. - Being in turn criticised from the pulpit, he renewed his denunciations, and ere long he was known beyond the limits of the state.
 Some swindlers are ingenius and some swindled are not. Two Frenchmen ap- peared at g linen factory at Jaroslav, in Volga, four weeks ago, and told the manu- lecturers that they were French govern ment commissioners with an order for a cloth case in which to wrap the Eiffel tower in winter. They presented so many sealed documents and letters with the sig natures of celebrated Frenchmen that the manufacturer swallowed their marvellous story and agreed to take the huge con- tract. The sscommissioners" required from him $1, 200 as an earnest of his in tention to turn out the towers new clothes, and left him with directions that he should go to Paris at once to communi- cate further with the city officials and to measure the tower. He went, with several assistants who were to help him determine the details of the undertaking, and thereby spent $500 more to learn that he had been swindled
