What place, if any, does history hold
among the sciences? Is there anything in
the phenomena which she Investigates, or
in the means of investigation at her dis
posal, which should exclude her from
such place altogether Let us begin by
making some concessions The historical
student labors under several serious diff
oulties and is exposed - some peculiar
dangers. His first and most obvious diff
Guilty arises from lack of information.
The student of modern history feels this
comparatively little the medi9valist feels
it more; the student of antiquity, except
for few short periods in the history OF
Greece and Rome, feels it most of all.
How little we know of ancient Assyria
and ancient Egypt How little can we
hope to know How dark are the dark
ages how shadowy the personalities of
Pericles and Justinian, of Attila and Theo-
doriol How many empires have persisted,
like the Mexican, and left scarce wreck
behindl How small portion of the world
is illuminated at any one epoch by the
light of recorded fact! But such gaps are
not found in history alone. Even astron-
omy has its daEA spots. There are shady
spaces, to say the least, in evolutionary
biology. There survive only tantalizing
fragments of the old Etruscan tongue

The Masonic Temple Contest.

The organization of the trustees of the
Vermont Masonic Temple Association
has resulted in the greatest activity in
Masonic circles in Chittenden, Franklin
and Rutland Counties, to secure the To-
cation of the temple in Burlington, St.
Adams and Rutland respectively. The
lodges in Rutland County have been the
most active, having held meetings for
the purpose of starting movement to
secure the temple for the Marble City,
and they will make strong fight. The
Franklin County lodges will make a
quieter fight, but it will be all the more
dangerous for the Burlington interest
from the fact that it is being done so as
not to attract attention. 1t is known
that st. Adams stands ready to give a
site and $1,000, and there will undoubt-
eddy be large subscription to the stock
by individuals in the railroad town.
Montpelier MasOns may decide to take a
hand in the contest, and if they do, it
will become all the more interesting.

The Arena for May is an excellent
number, and the high character of its
contents is one of the encouraging liter
airy signs of the times; for it shows that
large reading public is growing up in
the United States that takes keen inter-
est in all the vital, social, economic, and
political questions of the hour. The place
of honor is given to scholarly but
scathing criticism of Remains Life OF
Jesus, by John d. Mcpherson, of the
United States Supreme Court. 1t is
written from the orthodox point of view
and will be widely read and discussed.
James Realf, jr.. in paper called "a
Poet of the Northwest" introduces a
new American poet, Jonah Leroy Rob
inson, to American readers. G.. j. Buell.
gives his views on "a Partial Solution
of the Railway Problem" Adeine
Knapp paints strong picture in "A short
story called "The Wealer,'a story of the
times. Rev. T. E. Allen, leading men,
Der of the Boston Society of PsyChical
Research, writes an analysis OF the
strange case Of Mollie Fancher of Brook
Ign, which he believes establishes the
fact of clairvOyance. B. q. Flower, the
editor of the review, continues the series
of papers discussing the legal and social
aspects of the traffic in girls and kindred
immoralities. f. p. Powell considers
the question, "Should War be Abolish
ed" Henry Wood contributes Human
Evolution and the FALL" and shows that
if we accept the evolutionary philosophy
we must consider the Fall of Eden as
spiritual and moral advance rather than
declensOn. Robert Stein writes
strong but temperate paper on the, Ar
menan question from the point of view
OF an Armenian, and he concludes that
Armenia must have a European COVER
nor. The article is finely illustrated.
Prof. Frank Parsons, of the Boston Uni
versity Law School, deals with the ques-
ton of the multiplication of street
railroads in our great cities. k. l. Hemp
hill describes the South Carolina State
Dispensary. Rev. Harry C. Vrooman
writes forcible paper on the State and
Dwelling for the Poor, and the Books of
the Day department affords interesting
criticism of the contemporary literary
world.

MURDER MIXES POLITICS.

MURDER MIKES POLITICS.
The retirement Of Dabney Marshall,
democratic candidate for the Senate in
the Vicksburg district of Mississippi, in
consequence of the killing of Denkins
for making charges of Oscar Wildism
against him, has got badly mixed up
with Mississippi politics.
The democratic executive committee
of Warren county yesterday accepted
Marshall's resignation of the nomina-
ton, at the same time declaring its
confidence in his high and honorable
character as a gentleman and demand
ing his pardon. Marshal's lawyer was
Senator McLaurin, the democratic can
didate for governor, who is certain TO
be elected to that Office in a few weeks,
and it was at McLauran's suggestion
that Marshall and his two friends who
assisted him in killing Denkins, Messrs.
Coleman and Fox, pleaded guilty OF
murder.
This was done to avoid the scandal
of a trial that would have been nause-
ating in the disgusting facts it prom
ised to bring out. The relatives of
Denkins were consulted and they
agreed to raise no objection if the three
men were sentenced to the penitentiary
for life. Now comes the organized
democracy demanding a pardon for
Marshall. The case is complicated by
the fact that MarshaIl's lawyer will be
the Governor of Mississippi in q few
weeks with full and unconditional
power of pardon. tti5
McLaurin is being savagely attacked
for his action, which, it is claimed, has
put him in a false position. He defends
himself by declaring that, as 8 lawyer,
he had a right to act as counsel in any
case, whether he is a candidate or not,
but the Greenville Times, the Vicks-i
burg COMMERCIAL Herald and other
leading democratic papers are severe
in their criticism and have drawn from
him a letter that his position as counsel
in the Marshall case will not necessari-
ly preclude him from granting a par
don, no matter how strong the petition
for it may be.

VENEZUELA THANKFUL.

Message and Resolutions of Congress
Concerning This Country.
President Crespo, Of Venezuela, has sent a
special message to the congress of Venezuela
concerning the attitude of the United States
on the British Venezuela question. lmme-
diately following the receipt Of the president g
message the congress passed resolutions amid
great enthusiasm, heartily thanking the
United States for its sympathy and support.
Senior Andrade. the Venezuelan minister at
Washington received copies OF the message
aud resolutions. In a day or two he VIII
have enrolled copies to be delivered to the
state department and probably TO the presi-
dent The people also are getting up mon
ster popular petition breathing the warmest
appreciation for the support OF "the great
republic Of the north"
President Crespo's message called the at
tention OF the Venezuelan congress TO the
message sent by President Cleveland TO the
United States congress suggesting arbitration
and to the passage by congress OF resolutions
in the line OF Mr.. Clevelands suggestions.
President Crespo suggested that suitable
resolutions Of thanks be adopted, which the
Venezuelan congress at once did in joint ses-
sion amid great enthusiasm. Word reached
the legislature at Washington that Venezuela
feels SO secure in her rights that she is push
ing forward public improvement in the dis
puted territory.

COUNTERFEIT STAMPS.

Those of the Two-Cent Kind Made in
Hamilton, Ont.
The United States secret service detectives
have Hnearthed in Chicago lot Of counter
felt postage stamps. They are the pink 2-cent
stamps. A package containing 10000 OF the
counterfeit stamps was seized at the Wells
Fargo express Office Chicago. They were
made IN Hamilton, Ont. Nathan Herzog, a
cigar dealer in the chamber OF commerce
building, was the man who gave the officers
the information. He saw an advertisement
OF the Canadian novelty and supply company,
OF Hamilton, Ont, in n Chicago newspaper,
Offering Sll5 worth of 2-cent stamps Tor 500.
He sent for them, but when they arrived he
became suspicious they were counterfets, and
notified the officers.
A dispatch from Washington says the secret
service officials have been on the alert for
something Of this kind since January, when
they learned Of a man making inquiry, pnder
suspicious circumstances, as to the process OF
printing stamps. The officials Of the secret
service are working on the case in connection
with the postoflice inspectors. 1t is believed
q; the postotfice department that purchasers
of stamps will be very careful to secure
legitimate issues, and that not many Of the
couterieits have been disposed OF. No change
whatever will be made in the present issue OF
the 2-cent stamps.

Two Bandits Killed,

Two more of the Denver train robbers
have been killed in Oklahoma. Tuesday
night posse of United States deputy mar
shas located the robbers and awaited day
light, During the night the bandits fed, but
the ofIlc, rs took up the trail and followed
the gang to deserted ranch 70 miles north
west OF Hennessy. Here the outlaws were
surrounded by the officers and challenged.
Their reply was volley of bullets. Then
followed a desperate fight, and after short
battle three OF them escaped, closely pursued
by n part Of the marshas, the rest taking
charge of the two outlaws that had been kill
ed. None Of the marshals were badly
wounded except one named Moore, who re-
ceived bullet in the shoulder, more painful
than dangerous.
