During the progress Of The big fire
In Boston Phillips Brooks illustrated
one marked phase in his character,
and, according to the Journal, one OF
the greatest phases in the character
Of any man or woman-the willing
ness, the desire to serve, to help some
fellow creature in distress. After
seeing his own church on Summer
street destroyed Mr.. Brooks next went
to the store Of Shreve. Crump < Low,
the well-knOwR jewelers.. Their doors
were Earred and their shutters up
and no wonder. The store stood
straight in the track of the flames,
and already 4 large crowd, made uE
principally Of rOughs, had gathered in
the anticipation of d chance to plum
der and loot. Through this crowd
DR.. Brooks made his way straight tC
the closed doors. His vigorous pound.
ing finally gained him admission.
Some Of the men at the head of af.
fairs were friends of his. To them
he said: "Gcntlemen, l am here to
do anything for you in my power.
Make any use Of me which is posi-
bic 1ney were at first aVerSe to
accepting such distinguished services,
but at last yielded to his earnest pro-
tests So they loaded him down with
diamonds and valuable jewelry. They
filed his pockets, his hat, ana even
his shoes Again the door was un.
barred and out through that crowd
OF rOughs walked Phillips Brooks,
carrying on hisperson valuablcsworth
thousands of dollars. The act must
have becu suspected by the roughs,
yet not hand was put out to strike
or even TO touch him. Towering
above them all, he inspired a respect
or fear which proved a perfect pro-
lection. His magnificent courage,
which did not know what fear was,
enabled him to discharge his trust
and leave the valuables in a place o.
safety.

RESEMBLES THE BIBLE STORY.
q Guatemalian Indian Legend OF tho
Words Creation.

fsNi ~ = NAtaAsAoh'
, OF all the American nations, none
iave left fuller mythological legacy
than the Clutches of Guatemala, who,
in addition to vast mass of ora ira
ditiOn, possessed also written liter
ature on the subject, full of rude,
strange elOluence and poetic orlgi-
nality. The simple sUblimity of their
account Of the Great on equals any,
thing to be found in literature. "And
the heavens were formed and all the
signs thereof were set IN their angle
and alignment, and its boundaries
were fixed toward the four winds by
the Creator, the Mother and Father
of life and existence; He by whom
all move and breathe, the Father OF
the peace of nations and the civIliza-
tion of his people, He whose wisdom
! has projected the excellence of all
that is on the earth or in the lakes
or in the sea. But there was as yet
no man, nor anyanimal, nor bird, nor
crawilsh, nor any pit, nor raviIc, nor
green herb, nor any tree: nothing was
but the armament. The face of the
earth had not appeared, only the
peaceful sea and all the space Of
heaven. There was nothing yet
joined together, nothing ithat Clung
to anything else; nothing that bal
anced itself, that made the least
rustling, that made any sound in the
heavens. There was nothing that
stood up, nothing but the quiet water;
but the sea, calm and alone in its
boundaries; nothing lived, nothing
but immObility and silence in the
, darkness, in the night. Determined
to people the waste. the Supreme
Father called into being the earth,
the plants. the trees, and finally ami
mails birds, beasts and creeping
things. And the gods called on
( these, their creatures, to praise their
! Creator and they could not, so the
gods dcspiscd them. And again and
again they tried to create an animal
that should speak and intelllgently
declare the praises of its Maker. And
! finally after many failures and
/ thousands Of years spent in expert
ment, they made men, and the men
/ looked up to heaven and said: Hail,
| o Creator. Thou that nearest and
Understandest US. Abandon Us not;
Forsake Us not, Give Us to walk al
ways in an open road, in path with
out snarcs, to lead quiet, happy and
peaceful lives free Of all reproach.'
Under the protection OF the gods
men multiplied, hut soon forgot to
praise and honor the deities and a
great rain fell which destroyed all
but one good man, his wife, his sons,
and his sons wives, all of whom had
taken refuge in 4 great canoe. When
the rain ceased they settled in place
called Tulan, and there the language
Of all was confused, so they deter
mined to leave Tulan and 60 to diff.
ferent parts of the earth; thus they
did, and in this way the whole earth
was peOpled with men"

The South African Republic.

Hidden within the mountain ridae7 ~
the land locked TraIsvaal lie such r.cl
deposits OF gold and so fertile a soil tIIg
it may well have excited the desires OF
England for its possession, althoILn,
until now, it has succeeded in prtcJ.c lily
maintaining freedom from European
domination. We have few salient
facts regarding the country.
The South African Republic, alsl
known IS the Trlusvaal, tOuc les on the
eIst Portuguese Africa aud Zulu Land;
south, Natal and the Orange Free State;
west and north, Bechuana Land and
British South Africa. 1t. would be en-.
tirely shut in from the coast but for the
recent annexation OF a small part OF
Swaziland and Amatonga Land, giving
q narrow access to the ocean at Cosi Bay.
The country's area is 1852 square
miles, divided into eighteen districts.
It's white population is 1I9, 9,12S, and
native, $50, 1904.
The capital is Pretoria, with a popula
ton of 5000, but johannesburg, LyIea.
burg and Utrecht are also Important
cities. The Trarsyaal was originally
settled by Beers from Cape Colony and
Natal, and its independence was recog-
nized by European powers in 1852. In
1877 it was annexed by England, but
three years later, u ;,r a resort TO arms,
self government was restored. Great
Britain retains control of foreign affairs.
The executive is vested in a President,
assisted by a Cabinet, and there are two
elected legislative bodies known as the
First and Second Volksraad. The Dutch
Reformed Church is the principal relig-
ious body, and there are 800 schools.
Although gold is mined extensively in
the Barberton, Witwatersand and nine
teen other gold felds, the chef pursuits
are agriculture, stock raising and ostrich
farming, soil and climate being espe-
cially favorable. The exports are WOO,
cattle, hides, grain, ostrich feathers,
ivory, gold aud other minerals. The
imports for 1890 amounted to S27 ,50O,-
600, on which the custom duties were
81, 9J5, $50.
The country'S mineral wealth has at.
tracted thither so many miners from the
United States and Great Britain that in
few years the naturalIzed Anglo SaxDa
element in the Transvaal may dominate
the carly Dutch settlers. In sucl a case,
we may look to see the restoration OF
English rule and the probable inau ,Us -
tion of an era of increased prosperity
for the Republic.-Mail and Express.

There is good deal in con! men ba,
tween the natures Of SChOOlboyS and
congressman. Both demand a GER
tain amount of amusement, and are
perhaps the more mischievous if they
do not get it. Recently the congress.
men had an opportunitT-t0 derive a
good deal Of innocent amusement
from the visit of an innocent chief to
the halls of legislation.
1t seems that the chief of the
Palouscs, tribe of the Pacific coast,
Wolf by name, had come to visit The
capital of the Pale Faces, ana sea
the Great Father. In the course OF
his wanderings, he entered the ante
rooms of the House of Representa-
tives, just prior to the time for open
ing a sesS. on.
He was attircd in full war paint
and feathers, blanket, and other de-
tails of the Indian costume. y mes
senger of the House who encountered
him at once put himself at his serv.
ice, and conducting him to the hall
of The House, seated him in the
Speakers chair.
Such members of the House as had
already arrived began to applaud the
Indian, and Wolf took these demon
strations as a great honor. Seeing
the Speakers mallet lying on his
desk, Wolf supposed it to be pipe Of
peace, and asked for tobacco to fill it.
His astonishment at finding the
'pipe" solid was amusing, but he
seemed to understand when told that
the chief of the House needed e to
keep his unruly braves in order.
Heap knock 'em in the head"
said Wolf, swinging the maliet ap-
preciatingly.
The members, arriving, entered into
the spirit of the joke. The hour for the
opening approaching the Indian was
asked to descend from the Speakers
chair, and was conducted to the seat
of one of the New York City repre-.
sentatives who had not yet arrived.
Here he was taken by a group OF
Western members, Just coming in,
for member of the Tammany So
ciety in full Indian costume; and they
crowded around shaking his hand.
Wolf enjoyed the demonstration and
so did the congressman.
FINALLY, as the House was called tC
order, Wolf was conducted to a good
seat in the gallery, and witnessed the
council fire" OF the Pale Faces He
returned to the Pacific coast con

held in great honor at Washington.

of inspiration came as he stood studying
