Ralph was a regular stage villain.
That his works are all dramatic and
conceived in the true spirit of the stage
is plain from the vast list of adapta-
tons. Each story has been adapted
again and again, and will bear the
process admirably
One method for winding up his plot,
to which he was excessively partial
was the unmasking of the villain ow-
ing to the betrayal of some confeder-
ate. The parties are generally brought
together in a room by the more virtu-
Gus members; the confederate then

tells long story of villainy. We have
this denoument first in "Oliver Twist"
where Monks makes his revelations.
In "Nickleby'' Ralph is confronted
with ''the man "Snawley'' and Squeers.
In the "Old Curiosity Shop Quilp is
similarly exposed. In 'Barnaby

with another betrayer. In Copper

1t is curious what penchant Dick

telling that he repeated and reproduced
them many times over. He had live

him why he had not taken up this

the excuse-it was long ago, many
years before his death-that he had

reason, no doubt, was that he could

revolutionary opinions, are wholly in
error. How can you," they ask, Tex
pect them not to favor schemes for
taking money from the rich and put
ting it into the pockets Of the poor, or
at any rate, for changing for change
sake? When men are wretched and
disconnected with their lot, it is no
wonder that they should support any
scheme of alteration, however rash.
When the status quo is intolerable,
who will care to maintain it?'
Now this contention sounds all very
fine in theory, but in practice it is en-
tirely delusive. In the first place, it is
founded on an untenable assumption
namely. that the working classes as a
whole are wretched and disconnected
with their lot, and would regard al
most any change as change for the
better. AS a matter of fact, the bulk
tented in the sense meant. 1t is the
old delusion of the supercilious pluto
crat who pities every one as a poor
devil who does not drink champagne,
and have a valet. Life must be in
tolerable, thinks the millionaire with
out great rooms and fine pictures,
plenty of horses, a yacht, and unlimit-
ed cigars. Yet the humble smoker of
the pipe and the diner off roast NUT
ton are not III the least ulScOnIeHleu.
Sydney Smith, in his old age, and en-
joying the luxuries of 1914, gave a list
of all the Improvements in the ma
chinerey Of life which he had himself
seen introduced, and drew a stirring
picture of the miserable days before
railways, lucifer matches, umbrellas,
and a dozen other necessary convent
ences. when think he added, "of
all this, feel almost ashamed to re-
member how perfectly happy and con-

Professor Radcliffe. The subject of the
evening was '7Sir Harry Vane"

After that began the struggle between

Stanley NJ. Hunter spoke on What
Some People Thought about Jesus
He carried his hearers rapidly over the
period between the advent of Jesus and
the council of Nicea, 325 A D., and
showed that the earliest Christian sect
was called the Ebiorites. They were
Judean Christians. They did not be-
lieve that Jesus was any more than
the divinely appointed deliverer of the
Jewish people-their long looked for
Messiah. No thought of Jesus being
entered their heads. This was a later
corruption. Coming down to the coun-
Gil of Nice. MIR. Hunter showed that
there was the hot-bed Of the Trinitar-
ian idea, as now held by the Chris
tan world. He spoke of the dispute
between Arius and Athanasius, which
settled the adoption of the Trinity.

though not as equivocally as we do.
The present generation owes more
than it can pay to the early heretics
of the church. All those spoken of, ex-
cept Athanasius, held to the oneness
of God. Mr.. Hunter then referred to
Swedenborg, remarking that the relig-
ion he founded was the most beautiful
one ever built upon the Bible. Sweden
borg believed that Jesus was actually
God himself, not the Son of God; con-
sequently he was a Unitarian. though
very far from the modern Unitarian

tendency. Mr.. Hunter had no objection

SOME ENGLIsH .ursTJcE

Mr.. Bradlaugh had hired a field in
which to deliver lecture in Devon
port, as the public halls in the town
had been forbidden to him. The super
intendent of the police interfered to
prevent the meeting, and finally ar
rested Mr.. Bradlaugh and put him in
prison. The next day Mr.. Bradlaugh
was brought before the magistrates,
and as there was not even a pretext
for the charge of assault trumped up
against him, he was discharged. He
then brought an action against the
superintendent of the police for false
imprisonment. The facts were notori-
Gus, and even the prejudiced jury
which tried the case could not refuse
a verdict for Mr.. Bradlaugh; but it
gave only a farthing of damages, and
so compelled him TO pay his own costs.
Upon that ground Mr.. Bradlaugh NOV
ed in the court of common pleas for q
new trial. as the damages were
ridiculously insufficient.
Lord Chief Justice Erie, in giving
judgment refusing a new trial, ex-
pressed the somewhat strange idea
thought lecturer to deprive him of his
liberty without excuse Upon the
same ground a jury of farmers might
think that a ducking in a horse pond
was a real benefit to the misguided
secretaries of the Laborers' Union
The chief justice said:
There are opinions which are in
law crime. - If the plalnt1H
wanted to use his liberty for the pur-
pose of disseminating opinions which
were in reality of that pernicious
description, and the defendant pre-
vented him from doing that which
might be a pernicous act to those who
heard him, it might be that the jury
thought the act of imprisonment was
in reality not an injury, but, on the
contrary, an act which, in its real sub
stantial result, was beneficial to the
plaintiff. and so the nominal wrong
would be abundantly compensated by
the small sum given."-The West
