As soon as Delsartism aims to enable the body to supplant the spirit, it aims wrong. It mistakes it's office every time it specifics particular movement as the proper expression of particular feeling. The indispensable things in true express ion are the very things that Delsartism cannot give: They are spontaniety, sim cerity, individuality. The last is not the least important.

 . So far, ,the Russian empire has stood be- cause of the apathy of the peasants, but the peasants will not starve in great numbers without serious uprisings. They lean upon the czar as children upon a father. When they find that the czar does not aid them, they will turn upon him. In the church and in Rome. the czar has powerful and influential enemies. The inhabitants of the Baltic provinces, once notably loyal, are now disaffected. Finland is full of the spirit of revolt; Po- land is the sed bed of insurreetion and conspiracy Russian society is sunk in materialism; the worship of tue czar, which has been the assurance of his safe ty, is passing away; and, most portent- ous of all, the Nihilists, In accordance with a new policy, have many represent atives at the head of affairs, whose sole policy is to push on the present govern ment to ruin by intensifying misgovern- ment in every direction. Those who know best believe that this statement Of the condition is not exaggerated and that famine, terrible as 1t is, is only one fea- ture of a situation which cannot long continne.

nurse and s. c. Sherwood signed as wit nesses. Judge Hollister said to Mrs Per ", "You know this to be codicil to your will that you have signed.'' He re- peated the question three or four times, but Mrs Perry made no reply Dr Stur- ges accompanied Judge HoIlister to the station and the Judge remarked that he thought it doubtful, if protest was made, whether the codicil would stand. After Mrs Perry's funeral, E. c. Sherwood, mo- tary public, went to her house, but both s. c. Sherwood and Mrs Perry's nurse, witnesses to the codicil, refused to sign the proof of the will, as they did not think that Mrs Perry knew what she was about in making the codicil. s. c. SEer- wood did not consider it Mrs Perry's own signature. Dr Sturges said that, when the codicil was signed, Mrs Perry did not recognize any one and used no brain power. They endeayored to get her to sign, she acquiesced and did the best she could. She had been disturbed and was ready to do anything to return to her former sleepy, comatose condition. She was incapable of recognizing him, ,in- capable of comprehending her property rights or her relations to her relatives. She had very little, if any, brain power and that was used in seeking rest. She was capable of no mental calculation, had no power of memory left, December and very little physical force. She tried to help herself with the muscles of her back when raised up. Mrs Perry was incapable of recognizing his sister, that day and utterly incapable of remember- ing him.
 Stoddard wished the case decided by Judge Glover as if he was court of final resort and would ask the court to reject the codicil as of any testamentary sig nificance,

A MEMORABLE ANNIVERSARY.

October 12 Unites Four Centuries Of
American Life.
October-12 will have prominent place
in history. 1t not only unites the four
centuries of American life that are clos
ing with the centuries that are before
us, but it will be made memorable by q
great national celebration. The signal
for this demonstration will be the dedi-
cation Of the Worlds Columbian expo
sition grounds in Chicago.
On that day our foremost American
institution-the public school-will be
the center of local celebrations in the
cities and towns from the Atlantic to the
Pacific.
By linking together all these local
celebrations as parts of systematic
national demonstration the full signifi.
canoe of the day will be brought out.
The object for this movement for
national celebration is not only to inter
est the youth of the country in the
Worlds Columbian exposition, but also
to give to the American public school
fitting prominence as the fruit of four
centuries of American life.
Both the Worlds congress commission
Of the Columbian exposition and the
American superintendent of education
have requested that the public schools
of each city and town lead in the local
celebration. These two bodies have also
appointed a joint executive committee
to direct the movement and to prepare
uniform and fitting programme for uni
versal use.
Every wideawake boy and girl in our
land has read or will read the message
issued by the Columbian public school
celebration commission with keen inter
est. 1t speaks vigorous word to every
one Of the several million pupils in our
public schools. How far the spirit of
this message is carried out depends upon
each individual boy and girl. We be.
lieve they will respond to it promptly
and enthusiastically. They are too thor
oughly imbued with the true spirit of
American loyalty and patriotism to per-
init such an opportunity to be lost.
They will enter into the spirit of this i'm
portant event with characteristic Amer
lean energy and determination.
1t is an inspiring thought that on Oct.
IL all the loyal sons and daughters of
our land will be united by one common
purpose of such lofty conception. We
believe that the pupils in our public
schools will prove as enterprising and
intelligently patriotic as those of any
city or town in America. Don't wait
until the eleventh hour. If our schools
are to attempt to be the center of local
celebration which shall be worthy of the
day there is none too much time for
preparation. Let the schools begin at
once. Teachers and scholars should
make common cause.

of about equal SIZE Columbus chose
three small ships rather than one large
vessel, with the hope that out of the
three one at least would weather the
stormy passage and live to return.
They were designed and constructed
upon model of the old type of craft
known as the caravel, which included in
its class all vessels from so to 100 tons,
with or without decks.
The Santa Maria was no larger than
the little schooners engaged in fishing
on the Great Banks, or about equal in
tonnage to the stanch pilot boats which
cruise along our coast in all weathers.
This vessel upon which Columbus sailed
was eighty-fve feet long, twenty -four
feet wide and drew eight feet of water.
Her bottom was made very fiat, in order
that she might be run upon the shore or
sandy beach without undue strain to
her timbers. Her extreme width was at
the water line where the hull bulges out
several feet beyond the upper structure
at the deck. This form of "tumbling
home" as it is termed in the vernacular
of the sailor, is rarely seen in ships of
modern design and construction, al
though this build can be seen in q modi-
fed degree in many of the old frigates
now RELOCATED to ordinary in our navy
yards. Ancient shipbuilders held that
bullying out the sides of vessel pre-
vented her rolling in heavy sea, and
accordingly her decks would not be ex-
posed to to the sweep of heavy surges
breaking close aboard.
The Santa Maria had but one deck.
At the bow was house called the fore
castle, in which the petty officers slept
and also part of the crew. Across the
stern of the ship was a second house
called the after castle, above which ran
a deck called the poop deck or quarter
deck. A small watch tower was erected
on the poop deck as the post of duty for
the officer Of the watch. The admiral
of the feet occupied the after cabin, the
officers of high rank being permitted to
share it with him, while the rest of the
crew was quartered in the hold and in
such parts of the ship as were not util-
lied for slowing provisions and ballast.
The after part of these ships lowered
many feet above the crest of the wave.
and when running before heavy follow
ing seas the deckhouses were rarely
swept by them, no matter how severe
the gale before which the ship was
driven.
The Pinta and Nina, sister ships of
the squadron, were about seventy feet
in length, the Nina, however, being a
littlo smaller'in tonnage than the Pinta,
These vessels were not decked fore and
aft like the Santa Maria, although each
had Lighthouses, or castles, at the bow
and stern.
Today it would be foolhardy venture
to dispatch vessels without decks on
mission across boisterous sea. Yet
these ships were constructed SO solidly
of well seasoned oak timber, planked
