"Darwinism, and Other Essays" Mr..
Fislxe's first book, which was preceded
by many essays in reviews, magazines
and newspapers, was myths and
Myth-Makers," published in 1872. This
was followed in 1874 by work which
Immediately attracted the notice of
many of the keenest minds in England
and the United States-"Outlines of
Cosmic Philosophy" This work was
based upon a series of lectures which
Mr.. Fisle had delivered at Harvard In
1869 and 1871, and which he repeated in
Boston, New York and London.
During the last ten years Mr.. Fiske
has devoted his time almost exclusive
ly to American history, and the beauty
of his style and the philosophical
spirit with which he traces cause and
effect in the development of political
ideas give fascinating interest to
his historical works. These are
four In number -" American Po-
litical IDEAS" 1.-THE Critical Period of
American History, 17s3-17s9," 1.-The Be-
ginnipgs of New England, and, in the
Riverside Library for Young People,
''The War of Independence. Since
1881 Mr. Fiske has delivered an annual
course of lectures on American history
at Washington university, st. Louis,
and these lectures he has repeated in
many towns and cities before publish
ing them in book form.
Mr.. Fiske's home is in Cambridge,
Mass, where he spends all of his time
with his wife and six children when he
is not travelling about the country lee
turing. Since 1879 he has been men,
Der of the board of overseers of Har-
ward university, and from 1872 to 1870
he was assistant librarian in that insti
tute He has visited Europe several
times, remaining for an entire year.
and has lectured before the Royal in
stitution in London and the Philosoph-
ical institution at Edinburgh. He
numbers among his friends most of the
men in England eminent in science
and literature, who were first attracted
by the skill with which he expounded
the philosophy of Spencer.

The Boston Herald points out that
Wheeler's bill to enable the city of
New York to hold a fair in 1900 to
commemorate the beginning of the
twentieth century of Christianity
should have the date changed to
1901, which is is the year in which
the twentieth century opens. The
Herald is correct. The last day of
1900 complete the nineteenth cen
tury, and New Years day of 1901
begins the twentieth.

known to the natives by his efforts to
educate them. Last year the scheme
was successfully inaugurated, and the

Some 200 head were purchased at about
$40 each. They were taken to Port
Clarence, and placed under the charge
of two experienced men, who are as

1,100-pound projectile with charge of
powder of half that weight. Four of
these guns are to be made for each of
three battfeships-the Indiana, Massa-
chusetts and Oregon. The Iowa will
have guns with only twelve-inch bores.
Eventually we are to have sixteen
inch gun, weighing 110N tons. The
steel for these immense cannon is sup
piled by the South Bethlehem Iron
Works. Although there are no very
new features to be mentioned in con-
nection with the breech mechanism of
these great cannon, the public is not
as familiar as it might be with this
ingenious apparatus,
Almost every well-read person is
aware, of course, says the New York
Tribune, that breech-loading has prac-
tically supplanted muzzle-loading all
over the world. To Withstand the
enormous pressures developed by the
discharge of heavy ordnance from
$4,000 to 10000 pounds to the square
inch), it is necessary to fit the breech-
plug, which is temporarily removed
every time the piece is loaded, very
securely into the chamber back of the
barrel proper. This is done by screw
ing 1t in; and, in order to make such
an adjustment perfectly safe, the
thread should encircle the plug at
least four or five times. But in battle,
where rapid work is desirable, it would
be no small matter to- untwist a
massive block weighing ton or so
through that number of complete
revolutions, and then twist it up again
every time the gun was fired. What
is known as the interrupted screw"
therefore, is employed; that is, alter
nate segments, either sixths or eighths,
of the screw on the plug, are pared off
lengthwise and the female screw in
the gun-chamber is correspondingly
excavated. 1t then becomes possible
to slip the plug into position and lock
1t with only one-sixth or one-eighth of
rotation thereof. Although this de-
vice is called the "Canet- Whitworth"

A small European state.

The territory of Moresnet, between
Germany and Belgium, was made inde-
pendent In 1918. 1t has one policeman,
no army, no elections, territory of
about two square miles, and a popula-
tion of about 1000. There Is n senate
of ten members, and the mayor is ap-
pointed by two delegates, one from
Germany and one from Belgium. The
mayor appoints the senate.

A bill has been introduced into con.
gress which declares that where death
follows the intended or actual derail-
ment or robbery of a railway train
the parties causing the disaster shall
be adjudged guilty of murder. II
the attempt fails, the guilty party, il
arrested and convicted, shall undergo
a sentence of twenty years imprison
ment at hard labor. The bill is good;
and has so much to commend it, that
1t should become law almost with.
out debate, for train robbery has be-
come 80 common that something
should be done to check it, and it is
very clear that only heroic measures
will accomplish it.

somewhat curious. In some towns
none voted, in others very many.
Where they joined forces with the ex

but where they tried to be a party by
themselves they were by themselves,
