Strong Language OF Carlyle on Thoss
VINO nEn,bnrl1ed IN Phllanthronr.r

strong Language OF Carlyle on These
who Embarked IN Philanthropy
By way Of indiyidualizing for ourselves
the philanthropist as Carlyle believed be
found him in his own country, we ask first,
I think, What is his place in society," what
is his relation to others not philanthro-
pists? BY way OF answer to this question
we learn from Carlyle that society is di-
vided into two great genera, as they may
be called-the great dumb .'inarticulate
class" and 'the articulate class" This
latter class we find is further divisible into
two-a large ignoble majority, intelligent
and Influential, busted mainly in personal
affairs who ''accept the social iniquities
and the miseFies consequent upon them, Z"
and "a select small minority in whom
some sentiment Of public spirit and hu-
man pity still survives, among whom, or
not anywhere, the good cause may expect
to find soldiers and sovereigns." 1t is
these last, "the silent small minority"
that are Carlyle's phiianthropists. II we
say that in some measure they answer to
the remnant OF old Hebrew times as treat
ed Of by the late Mr. Matthew Arnold we
shall not 60 far wrong.
Passing TO Carlyle's charges against the
class now under consideration, those who,
to quote his own words, embark in the
philanthropic movement" his first and
hesviest charge, at bottom inclusive Of all
others, is that they misconceive the situa-
tion. It is not that they deny the existence
of great public misery-Ye have seen that
they are even impressed aud stirred to
action by it, They at least do not call good
evil and evil good, put bitter for sweet
and sweet for bitter" No; but they seem
never to have asked themselves how It
came about that ''any world or thing fell
into misery" or II they did the true an
swer TO the question seems never to have
occurred 70 them, viz, that it WAS because
II had first fallen into folly, into sin
against the supreme ruler Of it, by adopt
ing as a law of conduct what was not
law, but the reverse Of one"
The offenses and omissions of the last
200 years, Carlyle believed, had been every
one of them registered against his country
men in heavens chancery; had all the |
while lain there generating frightful inter |
est and compound interest, until at last |
they had produced the frightful situation |
the philanthropist would cope with, hav-

A Royal Child IN the Midst Of Pomp and
Ceremony That She Does Not Like.
The little Wiihelmina, queen Of Holland,
as yet thinks only of her dolls, her pigeons,
and her drives and excursions into the
country. / saw her some months ago at a
railway station, a tall, well made girl,
fairly pretty, who was jumping and run
ming about without the slightest regard to
etiquette.
"You see that childf" said the station
master.
'YVhat child?' was asked.
"That one jumping like kitten, Well,
she is a royal princess"
One would never have imagined t. She
was surrounded by high officials, evidently
standing on their position and dignity,
while she was watching the different per
SOILS who were getting into the train with
an envious air, which appeared to indicate
a wish 10 get rid of her attendants to enjoy
the same freedom.
The child was educated by French lady
at first, Nile. Siotard, and she spoke en-
tirely in the French language until she
was years old. Then she learned other
languages, but, strangely enough, never
German, her fxther having a horror Of a3l
Germans. Miss Winter, an English lady,
given by the various professors are always
delivered in the presence Of Miss Winter,
who has absolute authority.
The little queen has her military house
hold, and her service includes also a cham
berlain, professors, her governess and other
attendants All this concerns the queen
but little. Her chief happiness is to work
in her garden and to look after her pigeons,
which she loves as much as her dolls. She
attends to her pets herself.
Early hours are the rule for the royal
little lady. She gets up at a. m. and at
once goes to kiss her mother. At the
first breakfast is served, at IL the second;
6 p. m. is the dinner hour. Between S a m.
and II a. N. the queen has her lessons in
languages, music and drawing. After
breakfast she talks with her mother, who
invariably reads a chapter in the Bible to
her, and explains it afterward. Then the |
queen is allowed to 90 into the garden, |
where she feeds her birds, or rides her pony
and rows in her boat. In her own room |
she has heaps Of beautiful playthings and |
large dolls in lovely costumes Of every /
kind and design. At 8p. N. Queen Viii

None so little enjoy life and are such
burdens to themselves as those who have
nothing to do. The active only have the
true relish of life. He who knows not
what it is to labor knows not what it is to
enjoy. Recreation is only valuable as it
unbends u.s. The idle know nothing Of it.
It is exertion that renders rest delightful

happiness of life depends on the regular

Russian Superstition.

The widow of church beadle died in
a village in the government of Penza,
having expressed the desire that her re-
mains be put by those OF her huaband.
When the grave Of the Latter was opened
the coffin was not found On investiga-
ton it was discovered that the peasants
of the village had stolen the body of the
dead beadle and sunk it in swamp.
There had been a drought in that dis
trict last year, and the peasants believed
that if they sunk the body of a righteous
man in water rain would come. This
superstition is said to be prevalent
among the common people in that
egion.-Philadelphia Ledger.

Fifteen bell boys in downtown hotels,

novel journey across the continent.

ern states, came to the coast at different
times in various capacities and ways,
and have never been enabled to save
enough money to pay their return pass

They have clubbed together, and by
the payment of $40 each have raised a
fund sufficiently large to enable them to
carry out their project. They have
chartered a common box freight car.
They will erect cots and hunks in their
car. An oil stove, cooking utensils and
a supply Of provisions will complete the
outfit. Donohue and his fourteen COM

Discrimination.

A surprising thing is the unintelligent
Judgment that many people form as to
the contents Of newspapers. They swear
by their favorite journal and dispute
statements that appear in other journals,
although such statements may be merely
official reports and authoritative reports
Of occurrences verified on their face.
How vastly superior are those who have
the intelligence to read newspapers be-
tween the lines, to know when informa-
ton is trustworthy, to make allowance
for bias, to take things with the salt that
seasons them.-New York Sun.

A fact which has been commented upon
recently IS that there IS an almost entire
nbsence Of poisoning cases from adulterated
candy. which were 50 numerous in former
years. This evil at one time became so se-
rious that an association was formed for
the distinct purpose OF securing the passage
OF special statutes ia various states making
the adulteration Of confectionery with any
substance injurious to health punishable
BY a heavy fine; and for several years lib
eral rewards have been offered by this asso-
citation, as well as by its individual mem
bers, for evidence against any offender
sufficient 70 obtain q conviction under the
laws, the association assuming the cost
and responsibility Of the prosecution.
In New York and Brooklyn there are a
large number cf firms, including all the

Talleyrand has been dead fifty-twc
years. The first volumes of the memoirs
he left are issued. He himself forbade
their publication until thirty years after
his death, and at that date his literary
executors found further postponement
necessary. He was thought to be the
depository of more secrets than any other
man Of his day, with greater power over
the regulations Of more men, living and
dead. Naturally these memoirs were
long awaited with a singular mixture Of
curiosity and alarm.
The career these memoirs portray was
and remains unparalleled in modern
Europe for length and variety of dis
tinguished service. Beginning with Louis
XVI, from whom he received his first
appointment, and from whom he went
later with letter to the king of England,
Talleyrand served in all eight known
masters-besides a great number OF
others who We're at one time or another
said to have him secretly in their pay.
He became president Of the Constituent
assembly which organized tine French
revolution. He was sent to London on
q secret mission with a passport from
Danton. He was minister Of foreign
affairs under the directory, under the
consulate, under Louis XVIII and under
Louis Philippe,
In diplomatic skill and success contem
porary public opinion held him the firsi
man of his period-that is to say, for hall
a century the first man in Europe. AS
to real influence on affairs, it is doubt
full if any minister since can be said te
have exerted as much, with the excep
tions only Of Bismarck and Cavour. Even
they did not cover so wide a range, on
deal with such a bewildering variety Of
negotiations, extending over 90 great q
time, and furthering the views Of SC
