greatness he was once compelled to lead his
corps of 10000 cavalry for three days win

distant river. Mohammed ordered his trum-
peter to blow the call to dismount and
loose the horses. The poor brutes starving

A Brief Review OF the Chief Features
OF the September Century.

Readers of the September Century will
be apt to turn first to the opening chap
ters OF Bret Harte's new novelette,,
'The Heir of the McHulishes," to be
completed in the next number. 1t is
the story of the attempt of an Ameri.
can syndicate to secure Scottish estate
and title. Another series of letters
from the late Bishop Phillips Brooks
appears in this number. While these
are letters to grown people of his fami-
ly, yet they are as charming and as
naive as the letters to children which
appeared in the August Century. DR..
Brooks calls Benares, with it's 5000 tenn
Piles, "the very Back Bay of Asia"
The frontispiece is portrait of Dan.
iel Webster, which Mellen Chamberlain,
the author of an article on "a Glance
at Daniel Webster" which it illustr ates,
considers the best likeness of Mr. Web.
ster made between 1910 and 1850. 1t is
here printed for the first time Other
biographical articles in this issue include
a continuation of Salvini's autobiog
raphy,-in which the Italian actor de-
scribes his first visit to America, and
gives his impressions of Henry Irvings
Hamlet,-and "The Author of Robin,
son Crusoe," by Mrs. M. O.'W. OGphant,
the English novelist. Mrs. Oliphant
tells us that the father of Daniel Defoe
was butcher named Foe.
"Sights at the Fair" by Gustav
Kobbe, is illustrated with a number of
Castaigne's pictures, which show the re-
markable versatility of this artists
work. Professor George E. Woodberry
contributes description of the vicinity
of Mt. Etna in the 'Taormina Note
book" there is an illustrated account
of "a Woman in the African Diggings;"
Senator Henry Cadot Lodge writes on
immigration evils; and the complete
stories include "Six Bulls to DE-" and a
New England story by Sarah Orne
Jewett.
The Century is taking up the matter of
apprenticeship and the debarment of
American youths from chance to
learn trades by reason of the great in.
flux of foreign workmen and the power
of the trades.unions. The editorial on
that topic in the September Century
treats of the enforced idleness of Amer.
ican boys, and how serious are the con.
sequences to the moral welfare of the
country.

The Rich Mans Son.

The rich mans son inherits lands,
And piles of brick, stones and gold,
And he inherits soft white hands,
And tender flesh that fears the cold.
Like soft hands, and tender flesh,
many diseases are inherited; especially
tendencies to asthma, consumption,
bronchitis, and stomach and liver
troubles; but there is a remedy, known
as the "Golden Medical Discovery"
which overcomes these diseases, and
cuts off all tendencies toward fatal re-
suit. Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, has put this
remedy within the reach of all, SO that
even the poor as well as the rich, can
obtain it. 1t is worth more to you than
"piles of brick and stone and gold"

The most destructive fire ever known
in the history of Lychburg happened
last Saturday, when Frieburg & Work
um's registered distillery was reduced
to ashes. The fire originated in the top
floor of the distillery proper shortly
after 7 o'clock, and rapidly spread to
the corn crib, dry kiln, and column
house, all of which were totally de.
stroyed. When the fire was first seen a
strong wind was blowing from the north
and it was feared that the fire would
be communicated to the Office, thence
to the free ware house and cooper shops
and bonded ware houses, but provi.
dental change in the wind did more to
prevent such catastrophe than did our

from spreading. Hillsboro and Blan-

thirty.five cars of coal, 1900 barrels and
several thousand bushels of grain were
destroyed. The origin of the fire is un-

covered by insurance. The plant will
be rebuilt at once
