POPLAR INTEREST ~ THE BIBLE.

Our gifted townsman, Colonel Robert G.. niger
soil. has had good deal to say for some years
mast I'm criticism Of the Christian religion and
more especially Of the Bible The Colonel. as
everybody knows, Is n ready graceful and mag
nctic speaker and he has never had any trouble
in getting big crowd to listen to him make fun
OF things that are sacred to most Of We do not
intend however to say much about the Coonel's
campaign against the Bible but rather to refer
TO some recent statistics. which indicate that the
Bible Is not yet a back number. There Is an
article in tho current issue Of ''rhe London Quar-
terly Review" giving facts and figures to show
that never before has there been so great a de-
mand for the Bible as there is today. In Eng
land alone about 100000 copies are issued every
year. In nearly every other civilized country
the circulation Of the Bible is simply enormous:
and at the present moment there are more than
200, 600, 900 copies OF the book In circulation In
800 different languages, while the demand for It
Is increasing all the time.
The story told by these statistics Is impressive
enough; but perhaps the remarkable interest now
manifested in all questions relating to the Bible
Is even more suggestive. So many books about
the Bible are constantly appearing that it Is
impossible TO keep track Of them And the de-
mand for good books on the subject Is still I'M
abated. Doubtless this interest Is due In part to
the Investigations Of the new school Of so-called
higher critics: and 1t Is therefore critical rather
than spiritual But however that may be, the
fact still remains that there Is no other book In
the world that Is able to compete with the Bible
in the interest, II not affection. Of men. Timid
Christians It is true. are alarmed Mt the growth

THOMAS II. HUXLEY.

Upon the death Of Thomas II. Huxley the trlte
remark invountarily rises that the world has
lost one Of its greatest men. The remark Is not,
however. altogether fitting. The adjective used
implies comparison, and a comparison, which Is
seldom lust Is In this case especially map
propriate Huxley was unique. His place In
the scientific world was such as no other man
OF his time could fill. or attempted to fill. lie

Haeckel. Pasteur and other illustrious men, now
living or Dead but from them all he stood In
measure apart Great, perhaps, as the greatest
he differed from them all so widely as to battle
comparison and to demand consideration alone,
Judged only by himself and his own achieve
ments.
His career was noteworthy in that 1t was
centred upon no one controlling object. and yet
was marked throughout with almost perfect
unity of design. Perhaps It was because Of the
curious temperament he inherited; perhaps be-
cause Of his lack Of college training; or perhaps
because for one reason and another he was for
hidden to pursue the calling he most desired. At
any rate he gave himself to a vast variety Of
pursuits, sometimes successlvely sometimes
simulta neously The world has forgotten that
he began work as a country physician. 1t vague

THE SUMNER BURGLAR.

The tide Of travel has set strongly toward the
country. Families are going out Of town for a
few weeks or for the summer. On almost every
residence block houses are vacant and more or
less tightly closed, and next week will see the
number OF them doubled, perhaps MANIFOLD.
Concurrently the summer burglar has begun
work He finds his favorite field OF operations
in these deserted houses, and numerous reports
Of his activity therein have already been made.
Sometimes he is In league with the care'aker
who has been left In charge. but Oftenest he
seeks those houses which have been left entirely
tcnantless Entrance once gained, he has what
he himself would call an uncommonly soft snap.
He rummages cupboards and drawers at will,
