continue to parcel out Africa among
themselves there will be trouble, and
they would better hunt soft spot on
which to fall. The Almighty intends
this lion conquerer to enlarge the bound
aries Of the present Abyssinia till they
include all the region anciently known
as Ethiopia.
This Is the Ethiopia of the Bible. Its
boundaries extended from Egypt on the
north to Khartoum on the south. Meme
lex assures his brothers Of Europe that it
also reached from Nyanza lake eastward
to the sea, though this claim is rather
hazy in view Of, the fact that if it ever
did thus extend to the sea it was before

laid of with the precision they now are.

haps the same that produced the beauti-
full Queen of Shebas How Menelek can
call himself Lion conqueror Of the
tribe Of Judah though, is still more
mixed. The ancient Ethiopians are
classed as descendants Of Ham and the
Cushites. Menelek says his people are
all good Christians. His message sounds
somehow like an echo from 1000 years
ago.

A Chinese Governor.

Tshang Yao, the governor OF the pro-
vince of Shantung, who died recently,
was one of the highest dignitaries of the
Celestial empire. He had q highly adj
venturous career. Born in lowly posi-
ton, he was obliged to flee in his youth
on account Of having murdered the tor
mentor of an old man. He became a
robber and soon stood at the head of all
the brigands who made the province of
Human unsafe. When, during the re-
bellion, the chief town of the province
was threatened, the governor issued a
proclamation in which he promised the
hand of his daughter to the man who
would save the town from the enemy.
AT the head of 500 bandits, Tshang
beat off the attack of the rebels, and led
home on the next day, as a reward for
his bravery, the almond eyed beauty.
Then he made rapid progress. He was
not able to read or write. but was of
great integrity, and died poor as he was
born. He was called>by his people, on
account of his charity, Tshang, 1.-THE

Dom Piatt.

Anything connected with o journal
lists personality does not matter perhaps
one way or the other to the general pub
lie, and probably less is known Of the
personality Of Journalists. than of any
other men whose work is constantly be-
fore the public. When, recently, at the
age Of seventy-two, Dom Piatt retired
from earthly scenes, prominent newspa-
pers announced that he was an unbeliever
in religion. They forgot, maybe never
knew, that this stormy, fiery soul was
nurtured in the faith of the Roman Cath
Ollie church, and that the veteran news
paper writer died true son Of mother
church, whether he had always lived
such or not.
Another phase Of belief In Mr.. Piatt's
case was that he was Spiritualist.
Years ago-it must have been twenty
there were in Cincinnati number of
men, most of them above the ordinary in
intellectual power, who for some reason
concluded to investigate Spiritualism.
They were also mostly unbelievers in the
current theology. Among them was
William Cory, a wealthy and eccentric
citizen of Cincinnati, who had been edu-
Gated in France and imbibed socialistic
principles. Another was F. B. Plymp-
ton, Of the editorial staff of the Cincin-
natl Commercial, a<gifted writer and .
poet. Dr.. Napoleon Bonaparte Wolf
was still another one of the friends. DR..
Wolf was Spiritualist,w the others
began looking into the matter, and it
was at his house that the seances were
held. All the rest became believers.
DR.. Wolf was in the advertising medical
| line, and whether as unbeliever or Spirit
dalist, managed his consumption RENE
lies SO shrewdly that when he died .
few months ago he left an estate of
nearly million. Into the strangely as
sorted company came Dom Piatt at the
most brilliant point in his career as a
journalist. His caustic wit and savage
utterances made him power in the
newspaper world.
So far as known, all the four remained
true to their Spiritualistic convictions.
All are dead now, and Dom Piatt was
the last of them, but Spiritualism never
softened the fierceness of his luminosity
or his fights against shams and hum.

wide, and some of them passed into the

Clement Scott Coming to America.


A private letter from London brings
the information that Clement Scott, the
dramatic critic of the London Telegraph,
is to visit America this winter. Mr..
Scott is one Of the best known first
nighters in the English capital. He is
stout, gray haired, has gray mnstache,
wears eyeglasses and is rated the best
authority on the drama in England. He
has many friends, but an army of en-
emies. he has made and unmade many
playrights and actors. His dramatic
column ID still regarded as the standard
authority, and his article is nervously
awaited after the performance Of new
play. His Judgment is usually good. He
finds good deal of fault, but is lavish
In praise for good work.
A nice paragraph from him will some
times mean five pounds more week on
the salary of some deserving actor or
actress who is little known and not APP
preciated. and his condemnation Of
new play is usually the end of the ven
ture. Taken all in all, he is regarded as
-eminently fair and just. He has never
used his position to injure any one.
What he has done has been from con-
iscientious motives.
Mr.. Scott is q patient student Of the
drama. He has the best theatrical
library in England. He will be warmly
welcomed in America, for he has been
particularly agreeable to American
actors and actresses, and many dinners
and receptions viii be. given in his
honor. Foster Coates in New York Mail
