took his cadenza through the most extraneo S

would really come to the shake which was to
terminate the long close. Eventually it came,

What One Man Gan Do.

Dr. Parkhurst, the New York preacher,
is an example of what one strong, earnest
and sincere man can do. A year or so
ago, being president of the society for the
suppression of crime, he concluded the
first thing TO be done was to suppress
those who permitted crime in the city of
New York. He began a crusade against
the police department.
The police board and police captains
laughed at him, and the people of New
York were inclined to laugh with them.
The newspapers sneered at him and said
he had undertaken too big job. He kept
his own counsel and acted on his own
Judgment.
He collected evidence of the most start
ling character. He found out that GER
tain classes of the people were being
blackmailed to the extent of Sl5, OOO,0 600 a
year by the police, and that the police
guarded the haunts of vice and fattened
on the proceeds of them.
He secured committee Of the legisla-
ture, and through it laid his evidence be-
fore the public. As a result of his efforts
thus far one police commissioner has re-
signed and four police captains have been
dismissed. And the work of purifying
the police department has just begun.
The Matchmaking has been stopped and
vice in hundreds of places has been
checked.
DR.. Parkhurst returned from Europe
Thursday and is now ready to continue
his work. He is power for good IN New
York, and those who little while ago
spoke Of him sneeringiy are now ready to
lend him a helping hand.

The death Of the Count of Paris re-
moves from the stage of life an interest
ing but not very important actor. He
was interesting principally because he
was royal possibility. and secondarily
because he was a man Of letters. Had
France remained an empire, he would
have been an emperor. France did not
remain an empire, and the Count Of Paris
became less than citizen-a man without
country. He was famous for what his
ancestors were and for what he might
have been, and was comparatively we'll
known for his literary work. He was
student and the author of several works
that attracted considerable attention. OF
his American career there is not much to
be said. He came 10 this country "a 1861
and joined McClelian's staff, but never
did anything to distinguish himself in
the service As q scion of royalty. il was
