We are informed by London Society that
champagne. which has boon the favorite
beverage OF wealthy Russians since the reign
OF CATHERINE the Great. is going out OF fashion
in Russia. We are not told what kind Of bey-
crage Is used as u substitute for it: but we are
aware that the Government Inns for some time
past been especially DESTROYS that tho officers
OF its military service should favor the con-
sumption OF wines made from the grap res that
grow in the Crimea. Bessarabiu. and other
southern provinces o: the Cars empire. Beer
and other fermented liquors have also grown
in the favor OF many OF the proud Russians.
including officials. who formerly despised
them rs vulgar potations.
Beer is the drink Of the civilizel world in
this generation more than 1t over was in any
other. The erma and the English were
formerly the chief consumers OF malt bev-
erages. and even yet they may hold the first
rank as such. but. strange to say. the French
have within recent years taken to beer as they
never tool; TO 1t at any other time in their his
tory. There are now in Paris hundreds OF
shops in which more beer than claret
Is sold, and many OF these shops are
not In tho poor quarters. Tho citizen
OF bourgeois garb can To seen drinking il,
the proletaire. the German-h ater. the soldier,
the boulevardier. even tho chauvinist, who
may perhaps be n Deputy or n municipal
Councillor. Tho beer habit has grown in
other Latin countries Of Europe. especially
in Italy. and 1t is on the rise in Spain. 1t is
in some measure counteracting the brandy
habit in Sweden. the whiskey habit in Scot
land. and tho vodka habit in Russia. There
are even Turks who hold that the Prophet did
not prohibit beer in condemning wine. and
one orthodox M~ohammednn has published
an argument on this subject. In tho great
American republic beer Is rrodigious: and
We stand ready to be convinced that more
OF 1t was drunk last year in this country than
in Germany. Wo have plenty OF drinkers of
whiskey. mixed liquors. and wines: but we
must certainly have ten times moro beer
drinkers. Millions OF barrels of teer are
needed every year to ducnch the thirst OF New
York. We owe beer. BY which we mean lager
bier. to the Germans. who began to come hero
in swarms less than half n century ago. Be-
fore that time wo had malt liquors. such
as ale and porter. which We're largely import

Rabbi ISAAC NJ. WISE, the President of the
Hebrew Union College. has delivered a re-
marka5le discourse in defence OF tho Presby-
terrain DR.. BRIGGs's doctrine OF Biblical in
SEPARATION. He maintains. as n Jewish theolo-
gian. that tho Christian idea OF the Divine
origin OF the language of the Bible is not in
accord with the faith o. ancient Judaism, and
he appeals to the Talmud in support of this
allegation. One rabbi in the Talmud alleged
that the Mosaic books were plcnarlly In
spired. but no had no authority for this aIleca-
ton. In. ancient rabbinism. the Thorah was
the hottest book: the propheticnl and histori-
cal books were less holy: the other books, in
Guiding Chronicles and Daniel. were least holy.
There Is IN the Midrash a distinguished rabbi
who. aftor declaring that GOD revealed to
MOSES only general principles" asks. How
could MOSES have learned all the Thorah in
forty days and nights. II it Is higher than tho
skies and broader than the sea" In the book
OF Genesis the words COB spake TO MOSES"
arc not to be found. aud the book OF Deuteron-
omy opens with this notice: These be the
words which MOSES spuke:" SO that. according
to Rabbi WISE. hut three books OF MOSES
possess Divine authority. and that merely Of a
general kind.
The argument Of the venerable Rabbi WISE
In defence Of the skeptical speculations with
when Or. BRIGGS has disturbed the Presby-
teriun Church Is full OF rabbinical learninc;
ana yet We are unable to say that its dialcc-
ucal method Is In accord with that OF the
hisher criticism" OF the Presbyterian theo-
logan. Il believe" exclaims Rabbi WISE at
the END Of his discourse. in the superiority Of
reason an appeal to which is iustitlable under
all circumstances.

Tho purpose Of the Mexican Land and
Colonization Company TO abandon Its great
tract OF nearly 10000 square miles in Lower
California may open the way for some now
syndicate TO try It's hand at tho enterprise.
This company was not itself the original
grantee Of the tfnct. but took 1t by assign
ment to cover loans to those who had first
obtained II from tho Mexican Government.
AS the most serious stipulation involved In the
concession is the construction OF o railroad
from st. Quentin to Yuma. and part OF this
has been built and some rolling stock sup
piled. the assertion that the company will
throw UP tho enterprise and allow It's grant to
revert to the Mexican Government has seemed
somewhat strange.
L. 1t may be recalled that this was the enter
prise that was made the basis Of rather start
linz rumors about two years and n half ago.
1t was reported that the company was about
to found a republic on the peninsula. or per-
haps TO excite q revolution there. which was
to be aided by un auxiliary movement in
southern California. the result being the do
tnchment of Lower California from Mexico
and its annexation TO the United States. 1t
was also rnmored that England was to be
drawn into the affair. both to protect her citi-
IONS and through being allowed to have n
naval and coaling station there. The whole
story was i%ncongruous. but 1t seems to have
been based on the fact that certain privileges
OF local control were granted to the company.

BIRDS ON THE DEFENSIVE.
Their Traits Of Self-preservation Are Dew,
Oped In Native Wilds.

Their Traits Of Self preservation Are Devel-
oped In Native wilds.
The attitudes that some large birds place
themselves in would protect them in compar-
atively open places, says q writer in CornhiU.
Unless one had seen it one would hardly give
the raptores credit for this, but they practice it
to perfection. This class OF birds has been my
favorite study from my boyhood, and I shall
never be able to finish the study, for something
fresh is continually coming before me. The
eagle, for one, places himself in strange posi-
tons, nero bundled-up bunch Of feathers to
look at. A friend Of mine who recently visited
Achili Island, the island of the eagle, was ON the
cliffs with his wife and some other friends
when lady saw in a cleft of the rocks close to
her what she thought was a splendid tuft Of
feathers that had been blown there by the
wind. On STOPPING to pick them up, out
from the cleft dashed a magnificent eagle,
leaving behind him tuft Of feathers as
a memento. Vigilant as the bird is he is
frequently walked over. After gorging he gets
drowsy; indel, it is only under these circum-
stances that such thing could take place.
Falcons, hawks-the larger specie-can COM
press their feathers and look very slim if they
think 1t necessary to do SO. As to the owls,
they can hump up into any position they think
most suitable. 1t is useless to look for these
self-preserving traits in any Of the family kept
In geological collections, for the birds are SO
accustomed to see large numbers of people
passing or standing in front Of them that they
treat the whole matter with perfect indifference
They know that at a certain time their food will
be brought them, and that they are otherwise
perfectly safe. Then the raptores in q wild
state have a bloom on their plumes like the
bloom on q bunch Of grapes, which il not often
seen when in captivity.

WILHELM REBELS.

The Dowager Empress Frederick VIII
Take Up Her Residence in England.
The Empress Frederick is determined to take
up her permanent residence in England, where
she will stay at Windsor and avoid Germany as
much as possible, says Berlin letter. The
general belief that the ardent desire for her
native land caused this conclusion is mistake.
The ex-empress believes that she is driven out
Of Prussia by the treatment of her BY her son,
the emperor, and his imperial consort
1t is well known that the Empress Frederick
was very much opposed to the marriage Of her
son, the present emperor. Her antipathy
against his young consort increased the more
Wilhelm showed his mother his independence,
Wilhelm had only been married about six
months, and was living at the Schloss in Ber-
lin, when his mother, the crown princess Wis
tied him, and. like all mothers-in-law, COM
menced to give orders in domestic affairs
The young princess submitted silently and
tried to please her mother -in-law as far as pos
sible, until tears filed her eyes. That was too
much for Wilhelm. who had been listening
behind a newspaper he was reading.
Mamma" he cried, 81 am sure YOU have
forgotten that you are not at home. You are
in my house, Of which nv wife is the mistress.
She is the only one who has to command here
besides me-"
Inc crown princess departed In wrath and
has ever since fostered an invincible hatred to-
ward her daughter-in-law. She has never en-
tered her house since without official reason.
Immediately after the Emperor Frederick's
death the empress could not conceal her feel
ings against her sons wife any longer, SO, it is
said, inspired the English press to attack the
young empress in a very rude manner
Besides her daughter-in-law it was the iron
chancellor upon whom the Empress Frederick's
wrath fell. She could not bear to be displaced
from the powerful position she had occupied
during the short reign Of her noble consort.
The young emperor was, according to her view.
far too slow in throwing over the faithful ad.
wiser and friend Of the old Emperor Wilhelm.
At last Bismarck had to 60; but, in spite of
this fact, the influence of Empress Frederick
did not gain. On the contrary, when she tried
to mix herself up with politics and to advise
the emperor she was told by the latter that she
was de trop.
Since then she has spent most of her
time outside Of Berlin. When she was informed
that the emperor felt the want Of q reconcile
alton with Bismarck and had instructed Count
Won Waldersee to straighten matters her old
hatred and jealousy broke out anew. She
rushed to the emperor to tell him that If this
were not q rumor, but truth, she would Quit
the country, and she is going to quit
