Whether Columbus was actually born
within the walls of Genoa ia a disputed
point; some contending that he came
into the world on the coast near by the
quaint old Italian seaport. No matter;
the house in which he passed his boyhood

street, with tall, narrow surrounding.
Genoa has other claims upon the atten.
ton and affection of mankind. Here the
great Irish aRitstor, Daniel O'Connell,
died IN a room now occupied by the sec.

Byron dreamed and wrote. Here Dick

Cornell professor told his students
t'other day that the man who sells his
vote is more worthy of respect than he
who stays at home and does not vote at
all. Well, perhaps 60, but We can't get
up much more enthusiasm for the blocks
of five" style of craftsmanship. Wouldn't
it be better to disiranchise the voter who
won't vote and to send to state prison the
man who buys and the man who sells a
vote? We commend this suggestion to
the Cornell pedagogue.

That the Roman catholics should have
decided to establish a summer school of
their own, remarks the CbriStiGn-at- Work,
furnishes striking and significant illustra-
ton of the marked tendency of that
church in this country to utilize purely
American methods for propagsting the
faith and stimulating the zeal of the
faithful. The university extension plan
has come to the front; but that embraces
the idea of higher studies for those not
having the opportunity of attending col
lege, and is a separate thing. The Chau-
tsuaua idea amplifed so as to bear the
closest possible touch to the life of
today, would bring home many valua-
bic hints and helps for economic
ing time and effort that now
go TO waste. The care of the poor, the
tramp nuisance, village improvement,
drainage, economical municipal govern
ment, hygiene, household economy
these and innumerable other problems.
together with instructions in the bible and
matters pertaining to the religious lie
might be brought under an elastic Chau-
tauqua scheme by the presbyterians,
episcopalians, congregatiohaists and
baptists, who are at present neglecting
their opportunities. That the methodists
have pursued this plan in their own way
and so successfully, and that the Roman
catholics are about to adopt the same
means for promoting the interests of their
church, suggests the inquiry whether the
other Christian denominations ale not
mistakenly allowing a great opportunity
to pass by unimproved.
