The story is founded on the fact that
Mark Twain's family has sort of claim to
the Earldom of Durham. Col. Sellers is here
the claimant to this earldom. The young
Lord, who is the heir recognized by English
law, is at heart Socialist, and he comes to
America to put his theories into practice.
By series of exciting incidents the lord
ship in him disappears and he becomes an
applicant for any kind of work in Wash
ington. The Old World notions of the
young Lord, which are not nearly SO ex-
tinct as he thinks they are, come into sharp
contact with the practical workings of rude
democracy, and here Mark Twain gets his
opportunity for graphically showing in his
picturesque manner some of the differences
between the aristocratic idea and the demo-
cratic idea Hard as he is on the monarch
ical side of the question, there are neverthe-
less some things in this portion of the work
that will cause the American to think and
ask himself questions. The story ends in a
most satisfactory manner. Of course, it is
full of humor.

rity have been tested, tried and came out

But they remember time when they
could have robbed a partner, or have ab-
seconded with the funds of bank, or sprung
a snap Judgment, or made false assign
ment or borrowed illimitably without any
efforts at payment, or got man into a sharp
corner and f1eeced him.
But they never took one step on that
pathway of hell fire. They can say their
prayers without hearing the chink of dis
honest dollars. They can read their Bible
without thinking of the time when, with a
lie on their soul, in the Custom House they
kissed the Book. They can think of death
and the judgment that comes after it with
out any fiinching-the day when all char
latans and cheats and jockeys and frauds
shall be doubly damned. 1t does not make
their knees knock together, and it does not
make their teeth chatter to read ''as the
partridge sitteth on eggs, and hatcheth
them not, so he that getteth riches, and
not by right, shall leave them in the midst
Of his days, and at his end shall be fool"

whether or not the teaching of the an
 cient languages should be discarded in
 the high school. Considerable excep-
 tion was taken by some of the members
 present to the theory advocated by | Spencer, wherein he holds that the study of the sciences affords a better
 means of discipline for the mind than
 the study of the languages does, while others held that such is not the case, and accorded entirely with the view set
 forth by Spencer. It was held that if the study of the languages be forbidden in the high school, where the student must necessarily obtain his preparation for college, it would place the student at the disadvantage of being compelled to take that much more time after entering colleges and that at the same time that he was preparing the other studies he could also prepare the languages. Also that in no other way can a student oh tain as good mental discipline as by the study of the languages. On the other hand it was claimed that ma jority of pupils never go any farther than the high school; that Knowledge ot the languages, except in Q few special cases. is of no practical benefit in after life; and that consequently it is unjust to compel pupil to spend his time upon a subject which will be of no practical use; also that for mental discipline the sciences offer a better field than the study of the languages.
 This question has always been the subject of much discussion pro and con, and to the enquirine mind offers a broad field for thought and investiga- tion.
 The students of the Normal School re- fleet much credit upon themselves and upon the school by their publication of the Normal EchO, through the weekly columns of the Tempe News. It will greatly promote the interests of the Normal, and will show at least that is being done there. I con graduate them upon their success thus lar in establishing and maintaining their bright and thoughtful news col umn and trust that it may be but the beginning of their greater success in the ascent up the hard and rugged pathway ot life.
