The great success Of Mrs. Thaxler in writing
both poems and stories for children was due
to the freshness Of her sympathies. the alert.
ness Of her Imagination, and the child element
in her nature, which was always young. The
stories and poems here gathered are quite
vaned in subject, but all appeal strongly to
boys and girls. They are not only interesting.
but they have fine literary and social qualities
that make them both helpful and stimulating.

CHARGED WITH HERESY.
A Professor of the University OF Calf
fOruin.

BERKELEY. Cal. February 25.-The ex-
pulsion of Prof. Chas. Woodwork and
Student Maxwell frcm the First Baptist
Church for heresy Is creating much con-
tention N this university town. The
charges against Woodwork were that he
had stated in writing that the Bible con-
tanned many errors of history and geology.
and that the Trinity is only three of the
many manifestations OF God" Woodwork
maintained that Christ was born of two
human parents The professor had also
said that 1.-The death of Jesus, like the Jew
ish sacrifices. only saves symbollcally, and
that the fall of man was not IRON true
holiness, but from childish innocence.
The latter statement involved the queS-
ton of evolution. to which WOODWORK
firmly adheres as good method of reason
ing both for science and Christianity.
Some of the members of the church ar
raigned against Prof. Woodwork say they
will take the matter before the academic
senate and the board of regents of the uni
versty. arguing that ii a man is UNFIT be-
cause of his heresies to teach Sunday
school, he Is not proper person to instruct
the students at the university.
In answer 10 this Prof. Woodwork says
that to eliminate his teachings at the Uni
versty of California they must eliminate
science and put in orthodox clergymen of
the old school. who will teach as truths
traditions and legends that are no more
valuable. except symbolcally, than the
myths and legends of ancient Greece.

NEW YORK, February 25.-The great
majority of the New York bidders for the
new per cent government bonds are very
much disappointed at the result of the al
lotments made by the acknowledgment
syndicate. Few, if any, of the applicants,
it is said, received more than 80 per cent of
their bids, many not more than 10 per cent,
and a large number received notice to this
effect: 1--WE regret to say that owing to the
amount ef applications for United States
1 per cent bonds under our circular, we
have been unable to allot any bonds under
your application"
This was signed by Belmont & Co. and
Morgan Il Co. 1t is alleged that no ponos
were allotted to Wall street brokers', VINO
might want them for speculation purposes.
The syndicate have decided to Wlthnoid
all information as to the allotments, and
therefore the acts of the case can only pc
obtained by piecemeal frCm the would be
subscribers. 1t il generally accepted that
those who offered gold in payment for
bonds received most consideration.
One bank which subscribed for round
gold, received no bonds, while neighbor-
ing bank, which bid for about the same
amount, agreeing to pay gold, was ailotted
30 per cent of it's subscription. There is a
prevailing impression that large percent
age of the bonds were allotted abroad, and
that home bidders were sacrificed to Tor
eigners. for the reason that it is to the
interest of the syndicate that gold shall be
brought from outside the United States.

fatal defect in the Judgment of the Paris
tribunal he declared was the fact that
the citizenship of the claimants had never

moreover, to the fact that under the modus

and e. j. Phelps, representing the United
States, all claims for speculative damages
had been soemnly waived.
In the Geneva award all claims for specu-
lative or constructive damages amounting
to hundreds of millions) had been ruled out
on the ground that they depended upon
contingencies too uncertain. What was
the gander. Why should we now pay
speculative damages? Some $25S,0O0 of the

several of the owners of the vessels seized

out the agreement made by Secretary
