wilheim's shrunken Arm.

An American who saw the German
emperor with the other royal person
ages ut the Covent Garden opera
house, writes: II was wholly aware
OF the unfortunate defect in tho
kaiser's left arm. knew that it was
incapable OF movement except by lift
ing with the right arm. that the en-
peror had TO eat with one hand, using
u combination knife and fork, and so
on, yet with all this preparation, the
spectacle of that helpless. withered
arm. hanging limp and dwarfed at the
side OF this stalwart man. came upon
me as painful shock. My heart
seemed to stand still for one moment
In profound pity. Presently the en-
peror, with a deft movement OF his
right, raised the useless left hand TO
the hilt Of his sword. where It rested
gracefully. and the defect was no
longer apparent He looked indeed q
king. vastly more regal and powerful
than the stalwart heavy. rather fat

The last census shows that the re-
lative movement OF population is de-
cidedly toward the regions Of greater
attitudes, and the greatest increases
have been in the attitudes between
1000 and 5000 feet above the sea.
And the desire for wealth led the
people into the Rocky mountains to
look for mineral deposits, but the min
ing there also illustrated that agricul-
ture and manufacture could succeed In
those regions and they have rapidly
followed. The average elevation at
which the inhabitants OF this country
lived in 1870 was 6S7 feet; in 1880 1t
was 739 feet and in 1890 1t was 788
feet The average elevation Of the
country is about $500 feet

Tremendous Force of Sea
Waves.

Some idea of the power exerted by
sea waves may DO formed from the
following facts: An iron column.
twenty-three feet long and weighing
5000 pounds-part of n lighthouse
being built-was, in course Of opera
ton, landed at Bishop Rock, England,
and, a storm coming up, was left
dashed by a chain mt each end to two
strong eye bolts. Three days after,
when the storm had nbated, it WINS
found that thegreat column had been
moved distance OF twenty feet and
landed on top OF projecting rock.
A blacksmith's anvil weighing near.
~ 200 pounds, and sunk in q pit
three and one-half feet deep, had been
washed entirely out OF the sink and
landed near the column ofiron above
mentioned. 1t had been foated
nearly 200 feet after being lifted out
of the hole.-St. Louis Republic.

The law OF intellectual attractions
and opposites is one Of the most diff
cult and subtitle to discover. Yet that
there is a law there is no doubt
Even genius itself. generally regarded
rs unexplainable, is unexplainable
simply because the data is not in all
cases apparent. Men will never be
able in intellect and imagination to
proceed rs florists have done in pro-
ducing beautiful rose, or as nursery
men produce the oest varieties OF ap-
pies or strawberries; but much may
be done when once the laws OF hcred-
ity and development are fully under
stood. TO educate man properly, as
Victor Hugo says. it is necessary to
begin with his grandmother or, what
is the same, begin with the present for
posterity.

In recent editorials the London
Times says that Europe has sincere
respect for the American dynamite
cruiser Vesuvius, whose armament is
supposed capable OF blowing the Brit
ish ironclads into the depths OF Nep-
tunes kingdom, and the result OF
the experiments made with the
great twelve-inch gun at Sandy Hook
Point is such as TO demonstrate that
cruiser armed with one Of these weap-
ons could go through the fleets of Eu-
rope fearlessly. Each shot OF this
new and most formidable weapon OF
defense weighs q ton, will carry dis
lance OF twelve miles. and will then
do its work OF wholesale destruction.
Emperor Wilhelm's great Krupp guns
are children's toys in comparison, ms
his ironclads are mere antiques by the
side Of the Newark and Boston.

NOWADAYS when people think pretty
much as they choose, and dress and
act in just as free n manner, it be-
hooves them to be rather chary of the
way in which they criticise thoir
neighbors. 1t is good plan, before
we begin TO throw up stones to look
about our own premises and make sure
that we have no large sash exposed
through which some neighbor could
easily drop rock, to our discomfort.
One will be surprised to notice in any
gathering where promiscuous CONVEX
sation is INDUCED in, the number Of
times people are summed up as "a
splendid person, but little off in some
things" and perhaps the very ones
who thus sum up another in so brief
fashion may in turn be handled the
shme way.

IT is true that the enemies OF Eng
lish ms the universal language OF this
country have scattered the lie broad
cast that the compulsory school laws
Of Wisconsin and Illinois aimed at the
suppression OF all but the English
language, but no legislature over had
such a thought and any political party
which should make governmental sup
pr6ssion OF the teaching Of any but the
English language an issue would make
itself the laughing stock OF all intelli-
gent Americans.

Dr.. Lindsay said he did not agree with the
suggestion that where the field il
small and already occupied by
struggling churches it is not wise
for the Episcopal church to crowd in. Many
times this just the church that will sue
coed when others fail. He asserted that
there are, more members Of the church in
Washington in proportion to the popula-
tion than in any other city in the land He
be vailed the fact that the church does not
possess a stronger hold upon the rural com
munities and said the only way to remedy
TINS was through better support o. diocesan
missions. He had found that whenever a
charitable or missionary scheme had been
presented to laymcn in a proper and bust
ness-llke way the necessary funds were not
hard TO find. Rev. George G.. Foley OF
illlamsport, Pa, said there is much
in the methods followed in diocesan
missions to-day wtI which fault can
be found. One Of tae most important ne
sessments on men. a serious fault to be
found with things as they are is the con
tinuanco of stipends for years in places
where there is no possibility of spiritual or
churchly growth.
Missions should be bound together in such
way as to make them mora economical to
run, and to develop in them, If possible, the
power of self-support.
