a Russian doctor has been expert
menting TO find how far some domestic
animals can corut. The intelligence of
the horse, as Shown IN mathematics,
seems to sU-pass that If the cat or the
dog.
The doctor fond horse which was
able to count the mile posts along the
way. 1t had been trained by its master
to stop for feed whenever they had COW
cred % versts. One day they tried the
horse over u road where three false mile
posts had been PIT in between the real
ones, and, sure enough, the horse, de-
ceived by this trick, stopped for his oats
at the end of % versts, instead Of going
the usual 20.
The same horse was accustomed to
being fed every day at the stroke of
noon. The doctor observed that when
ever the clock struck the horse would
stop and prick up his ears as if count
ing. If he heard - strokes, he would
trot off contentedly to be fed, but if it
were fewer than IL he would resignedly
60 ON working. The experiment was
made of striking - strokes at the wrong
time, whercuPon the horse started for
his oats i'll spite of the fact that ne had
been fed only an hour before. st. Louis

CORRESPONDENCE.
Is 1t an Oiisarchy ?

Mr.. EDITOR Il notice that many
newspaper writers in this city and
in the States are fond of calling
the present government an oil
garchy. But in my apprehension
of the facts in the case, an oil
garchy signifies the rule of a few
for their class interests, as mon
archy signifies the rule of the indi-
vidual in the interest of himself
and his family. The theocracy is
not monarchy; no one ventures
to regard the sovereign will of God
as the arbitrary control of a despot
Democracy is a government of the
people for the people by the people ::
and theocracy is the government of
the universe by a single will for the
good of all concerned. A consti-
tutional republic which expressly
declares that it is instituted for the
welfare of the whole community is
not an oligarchy, and cannot with
reason be classified under that dis
tiuctive denomination. The good
of the whole body polite, not the
development of any one portion. is
the declared object of the new form
of government adopted for the Re-
public Of Hawaii. II.

A Motto for Hawaii.

Mr.. EDITOR 1t may be true
that the old Hawaiian motto goes
with the old flag, and the old coat
of-arms. But it seems to me that
the Republic of Hawaii (why could
it not have been christened "The
Hawaiian Republic?"), may well
have a new name with its new ma.
ture. Without presuming to pro-
pose ''the BEST" [ would suggest
these words for a national motto
Without prejudice, without par
TALLY, without pretense."

To stamp out Tuberculosis.

New YORK. March 12.-An informal
meeting of stock breeders was held here
to take steps to call national convention
of stock raisers to investigate the exist
ence of tuberculosis among cattle In this
state and to call the bureau of animal
industry at Washington to close quaran-
tine all cattle in this sta<S pending such
investigation. The state board OF health,
II was claimed, has been killing q large
number of cattle suffering from this
disease in an effort to suppress it, but
owing to the lack OF legislative appro-
priation has been obliged to relax its
efforts in that direction.

ST. JOINS N. f., March IA hfeboat
belonging to the disabled and overdue
steamer Briscoe. containing First Mate
Mackey and four men. In an exhausted
condition, reached here yesterday after
noon.
They reported the Briscoe lying about
60 miles south-southwest OF Cape Race.
They left her at midday. Friday, bat after
pulling four hours IT was. discovered that
the compass had gone wrong. The COM
pass defect was not discovered until the
Briscoe was again sighted. The boat was
again launched Saturday, and from ii
o'clock that day until their arrival at the
signal station yesterday the men had not
had morsel OF food to eat.
They also suffered considerably during
the night from cold and were slightly
frostbitten. First Mate Mackey made the
following statement concerning the Bris-
GOES voyage:
Eve left Hamburg Dec. 8. but were
forced TO put back to Queenstown for re-
pairs. We left there Jan. 81 and encoun-
tered terrific weather. The bridge was
gone and the deckhouse, etc, destroyed
Nothing was left standing but the two
lower masts and the funnel. Then tho
starboard bow was stove in by the ice, but
the compartments were still tight She
was full of water forward, however.
"Our supply of coal ran out 10 days
after we left Queenstown. The steamer
Ulunda took the Briscoe In tow March
2, but left her the following morn
ing, after towing her 120 miles. Then .
repetition of our former experience set in.
A new danger now confronted us. The
supply OF food ran out and the crew were
nearly reduced to starvation.
There were no provisions on board,
save little bread, small quantity OF
fonr and some peas. A small fire was
kept in the galley to prevent the men
from perishing from cold. The other
fires were let 90 out for lack Of fuel"
The tug Ingraham left here to search
for the Briscoe as soon as the above news
was received. The coast steamer Virginia
Lake also sailed from Trepassey and will
endeavor TO find the disabled steamer.
One of these two will probably get her
very soon. The Briscoe carries caiko OF
manure salt She should have arrived at
New York on Feb. IL.

traversed half mile after leaving the car
in West Hartford when he was murdered.
Two rough-looking strangers who were
seen to follow him are suspected OF being
the murderers.
Pistol shots were heard, but being OF
frequent occurrence caused no suspicion.
Peck's pockets were found turned inside
out and his vest ripped open. AS it is

signed motive.

THURsTON's VIEWS.
Concerning Reports of Impe endIns Trouble
In the Sandwich Islands.

WASHINGTON. March ~ - Minister
Thurston, when seen concerning the re-
ported startling situation on the Hawaiian
islands, said that he had not received ad-
vices from his government concerning the
present state of affairs and had gained in
formation of them only from the newsps-
pers He was inclined to think the re-
ports exaggerated. although il had been
known for some time that the ex-queen
was seeking recruits in British Columbia.
Mr.. Thurston believes, however. that
the provisional government has the ad-
ministration OF the government so well in
hand that it has nothing to fear from the
queens followers. The report that many
now employed by the government would
be in the queens forces at signal from

REV. GEORGE L. CANDLIN.
)ne OF the Prominent Figures In thu
Recent Parliament Of Religions.


Recent Parliament Of Religions.
It was on the afternoon devoted to the
discussion OF foreign missionary methods
ut the Parliament of Religions that the
Rev. George Il. Candlin made his nist
address. Mr.. Candlin Is missionary
from the United States who for many
years has lived at Tientsin, West China,
where his work has been effective and
constant. He dresses in native Chinese
costume, believing that by 30 doing he can
get nearer the hearts OF the people with
whom he must come in contact, better
securing their confidence, and obtaining
greater success in his work. His opinion
on these matters must be conceded to have
great weight, for he has experience ana
success for his proofs. The speaker who
preceded him had attacked missionary
methods, and when DR.. Candlin rose 10
speak there was q sparkle In MS
eye that told OF contradiction to
come to those charges Of IN
tolerance and selfishncss. Tie made no
denial that there are reforms needed In
Christian missions and in the charac-
Ter OF work required. But he wished to
repudiate the personal remarks made in
regard 10 1.-THE missionaries i'm Japan,
oeyion, and India. He declared that he
was no advocate OF forcing Western
modes OF life and social customs on the
East. He did not wish TO Americanize
or Apglicize the people CT those countries,
but neither did he want TO be turned
into Hindu or a Chinaman. "And,"
he said, IL say this in regard to the
countries of India, OF Ceylon, and OF
Japan, that IL there are no true Chris
tians and no meek and lowly' followers OF
the meek and lowly Jesus amongst them,
then there " not one in America, and
there Is not one In England, and the
Christian world does not contain a true
Christian" He then followed with an
emphatic declaration that the real need
OF the Christian religion today is unity
between the denominations. He declared
II impossible to produce q universal har-
mony from the united actions OF a
Christendom OF religious sects wrangling
about minor points OF doctrine.
This is the handicap against which
all missionary effort must be directed.
The effort TO proselyte from other faiths
into Christianity Is continually meeting
the struggles of inquiring ones as to why
their are so many Christian churches and
In the maze OF doctrinal differences they
become bewildered, and remain in the
faith OF their fathers aud their countries.
On another day the same speaker read a
paper on the question Of Religious Unity
ana Missions" IL was In the same limo
~ his brief address OF the first appear
ence, and awakened much interest and
wide approval lie In strong advocate OF
the substitution OF the spiritual test
Tor the intellectual one, Of conversion
for orthodoxy. And again, on the last
day of the Parliament. he expressed his
confidence I'm the ultimate triumph OF
that spirit, and the belief that this great
Congress at Chicago was an important
date in the movement. These addresses
are all included In full In "Neeley's His
tory OF the Parliament Of Religions"
