Endorsed for the treasurership by many of
Connecticut's best known citizens, n
his banking experience certainly ought to
qualify him FOR the exacting duties of that
very important, honorable and poorly com
pensated post.

nointed assistant treasurer to succeed Ellis

Mr.. Jordan has long been prominent IN

is looked upon as a cold and calculating
man, thoroughly honest and full of energy,
but devoid Of sympathies. He is 81 years
old, and in face, form and general aspect
shows scarcely a trace of the many labors
and trials he has passed through. He has,
says Judge Lambert Tree, once American
minister to Belgium and one of the very
few whom the king really liked, a constitu-
tion of iron. His health is superb and his
habits wonderfully frugal. AS to his hon
esty and capacity, all Europe Joined ID IN
dorsing them when monarchs and diplo-
mats unanimously voted for him as mon
arch of the new Congo Free State.
Out of his private fortune, which is very
large, he spent 5000 COO a year for sew
eral years in developing the Congo coun-
try and still contributes half that amount
annually. The Belgian government as
a government is one of the most liberal
in the world, and the king can do as he
will with his own, but the relations be-
tween labor and capital have been strain
ed for many years. In all the kingdom
there were till the late re~voluGion but l2o,-
600 voters or ~thereabouts, comprising only
the well to doproperty owns. All the labor
ers and small cultivators were DISTINGUISHED,
and there were practically no laws to pro-
tect w~orkingmen against the exact1ons OF
capital. Yet the laborers were organized
in unions as thoroughly as in any other
country. An explosion was inevitable.
Now suffrage is made nearly universal.
The present royal family reached the dig
nifty by a rather rocky road. Bonaparte, as
every one knows, had made Belgium an in
tegral section of his empire, and after his
overthrow the allies coolly presented it to

in 1880, and on Jan. 20, 1881, her independ-
ence was acknowledged by a conference of
the great powers. Largely by the influence
of England the Belgians chose for their
king o German prince-1eopold of Sake
Coburg, who had married the British Prin-
cess Charlotte. He died in 1865, and the
present king, his son, succeeded. Leopold1

MONASTERY Ot DEBRA bIAEN.
Among A~byssinians the man who kills a
lion is a popular hero and is awarded the
proud privilege of wearJ & about his head
the name Of the beast he las slaughtered, a
privilege that is nrized q highly as knight
hood among Europeans and makes it's pos
SCISSOR q man of mark to the end of his life.
Some interesting, rare and exceedingly
valuable relics they are possessed of, too. or
think they are. Here is an account of a
visit to the monastery of BiZen by J.. Theo-
dore Bent, who recently returned from
Abyssinia:
We started off at break of day to visit
the monks. 1t took US three hours to reach
the summit, where the monastery of Debra
Bizan, or 1.-THE Church of the Vision" is
placed, and truly the name has been well
bestowed, for no more lovely vision could
be imagined than the one which lay before
us. We could easily see Massowah and the
Red sea coast line, and the folds of rich
blue mountains to the right and left Of us
as we stood on the pinnacle of the sacred
mountain were glorious to behold.
Ny wife and / reached the holy precincts
unobseryed. We were seeking out for our
selves a spot where we could repose when
down came the monks, mute with horror
at a woman having approached SO near. In
vain we expostulated and pleaded fatigue;
in vain we said we were English and de-
termined to hold our ground. The monks
sat around weeping and exciaiming, Bet
Ter for us to die than to permit a woman to
stay here" Seeing their genuine distress.
my wife permitted her Objectionable and
weary person to be removed about aquarter
of O mile away.
The church is round and built Of wood.
It has inside two corridors around it where
the vulgar may penetrate, but in the square
holy Of holes not even the king may enter.
The mysterious relics kept by the Abyssin-
ians in these innermost recesses claim ex-
ceedingly bold origins. In one place they
profess to have the original ark of the
covenant, in another @ bag full Of wind
blown by the Holy Ghost on the day OF
Pentecost. At Zebra Bizen cur interpre-
ter told me they kept the picture of the
madonna which Menclek, the son of Solo
mon by the queen of Sheba, brought back
with him from Jernsalam.
The life of a monk at Zebra BiZen must
be enjoyable enough. He wanders about
all day long in his white flowing robe and
yellow cap, enjoying air of the most perfect
freshness. He has his, little stone cell or
wooden hut beneath the shadow of the
rock. He has his refectory, where he meets
his fellows twice a day at nlealtimes-that
is to say, when there is no fast on, and fasts
in the A~byssinian calendar are many end
rigorous. On festival days he is very busy
chanting and dancing in the church. He
never marries. He knows nothing of the
world or its vices. His existence is a mega
tive one-he does neither harm nor good to
his fellow creatures.
