Some Cheering Facts,
Washineton Post.

washington Post.
 The industrial development of the south is the most important feature of the postbellum history of this country. It attracts the attention and excites the admiration of all thoughtful persons. It is the theme of unlimited discussion in the reviews, magazines, trade journals, and the daily press, and the solid ground work of public speeches by political and social economists. As was to have been expected, it has been thoroughly studied by MT Carroll D. Wright, United States labor commissioner, and some of the re- suits of his investigation were given to the public in an address which he de- liVered before the Liberal club of Buffalo last week. He shows that the phenome- nal industrial advance had not been limited to one or a few lines, but was ap- parent in many directions. The produce ton of cotton In the south, MT. Wright states, is double what it was before the war; in twenty years the manufacture of pig iron has increased 1000 per cent, the railroad mileage is 150 per cent greater now than in 1880, and the passenger traffic 500 per cent greater, and the freight tons moved nearly 400 per cent larger. He says that since 1880 the southern railroads have more than doubled their earnings, the banking capi- tal has increased in like proportion, and the money spent in the support of schools slaS also been doubled.
 As to the mineral resources of the south, they are almost beyond computa- ton. One strip of territory stretching from Pennsylvania to Alabama Is esti- mated by Mr. Wright and various other good authorities to contain forty times the amount of coal accessible to economi- cal production and distribution that was contained in the coal fields of Great Britain before a. pick was struck" The best cotton lands on the globe and abundant water power are other fea- n 10 nd tntn al hA inH Hif of this development on the north and on the whole country, MT. Wright says that, as the productive power of the southern states increases and comes nearer to that of the northern workers, the con sumption of the products of the northern mills and establishments increases pro- portionately and comparatively in a greater degree than the relative increase of products in the south, and as the consuming power of the common la borer in the southern states is enhanced the products of all parts of the country will find reader market. ee

IfIslarn Should Rise.

Chicago Chronicle.
 There is one contingency in the eastern crisis which may well fill the civilized world with dread.
 The Turkish empire rests upon re- ligious, not on an ethnical or political foundation. The sultan reigns by divine right, and his chief office is that of de- fender of the faithful. No sultan will be allowed to live, or, if his life be spared, to have his liberty who should tolerate in practice a theory implying that Chris tians are not dogs, and the dog is the most despised and the vilest thing of the orient
 Abdul Hamid would have sought peace long since in attempting to fulfill his promises to the powers If he were not perfectly aware that the first step of a practical nature to place the Christian on par socially or civily with the Mo- hammedan would be looked upon as both treason and sacrilege by his people. It is not to be expected that the powers can coerce him into personal submis- sion without running the danger of light ing the fire of fanaticism throughout the empire. With the overthrow of a monarch would come the rise of Islam What would 1t mean?
 Within the Turkish dominions in Flu rope and Asia 16,000,000 of Mohamme- dans. well armed. courageous and des- perate precipitated against 5.000.O00 of Christians, for the most part without arms and rendered incoherent by racial animosities, sectarian ambitions and foreign intrigue. Sixteen against five is not a reassuring ratio.
 But 16. GOO 000 does not represent Islam. Lord Salisbury gave a significant hint to Armenian sympathizers in England by reminding them that Queen Victoria is the sovereign of a larger Mohammedan world than the sultan. In British India there are nearly 60,000, 900 followers of the prophet In Persia there are 9000000 Mohammedans. Morocco contains at least 100000 who adhere to Mohamme- dan traditions.
 If an inevitable consequence of the dissolution of the sultanate of Turkey shall be the rise of Islam, Christian world may well ponder whether the price to be paid does not far exceed the prob able benefit. Russia alone has shown

 There was nothin' more to be done; So went abaft to the others
 And l told them one by one. We'll some on 'em took to swearin = And some on 'em took to rum; That's the way tars have of preparin
 Their souls for kingdom come. But one on 'em slunk away, sir
 And he makes for the cabin stairs, And underneath we could hear him

 When on she goes with n thud And the old ship she creaks and quivers With a creak fit to curdle your blood. . But we didn't begin a funkin'
 And shoutin' "thy will be done"' We done alarmed sight better;
 We fired the minute gun.
 We passed then about an hour When somethin' we seed on the water,
 And hip hurrah we screamed; And over the roar of the waters
 Came back the anSwerin' cry, And the flash of the oars in. the lifeboat
 Told us that help was nigh.

 We'd all of us leftthe ship,
 When she gives sudden lurch, sir,
 And thunder. she goes with dip But when we looked at each others faces
 In the light of the dawn of day, I'm darned if we hadn't forgotten
 Tue cove as went OOWH tO pray. Now the argument may be rotten,
 Ayei as rotten as that old ship, But if he hadn't been a prayin
 He'd have gived Davy Jones the slip; For them as took to swearn',
 And them as took to drink, Was saved by the Ramsgate lifeboat,
 While he was left to sink.

TYPES OF STUDENTS ABROAD
Meteors, Stars and Firehies in the Musical World Sketched by an Alabama
 Lady.
Cwritten for the State Herald.)

Berlin, Dec. 1, 1895.
 There are various types of students abroad. Each of the types drawn below are representative of a large class. The very fact of crossing the big pond and breathing the atmosphere of Deutschland by no means makes present of musical talent to the student. The theory of vio- lin and piano playing being direct fa-' vor of the gods, is banished illusion after life in this study world. One finds that native talent is the seed, but must be cultivated day by day, year by year, in the proper climate, with the correct training, while the soil must be en- riched by brain work, and the ear, which is the bud, must be perfected to the finest point before the beautiful tonal flower garden is the result.
 Look in with me on q small gathering of interesting worshipers of. true art at an informal students gesellschaft. Frau H. turned over her pension to the stu dents who had for some time paid hand some gold for her splendid service. The large dining room was waxed for danc- ing, and the lights fell here and there on palms and ferns.

Is exquisite ly dainty. and her harp, suggestive of a graceful woman. stood in the midst of beautiful china bric-a-brac, and silver personal belongings half hidden in filmy draperies. A faint suggestion of per fume pervaded the room.
 Mr. R. is a new conner. He has "con- siderable airs" I suppose he has been told at home-a town. perhaps, of 1000 inhabitants, they must know-that he is a genius Anyway he wears his hair very bushy rather adopts a scowl, and has a deep laugh which he keeps going some seconds at a time. He may, but I doubt it, succeed in entering the class of w., well-known violin teacher. I think, too before many months he will comb his hair straight.
 Perhaps one of the most striking in appearance of the gay crowd Is Miss S., jaunty and stylish, with the go of the American girl, which one so readily distinguishes from the busy by-passers on a Berlin strasse. She is a pupil of one of Berln's great masters, we'll known composer She is an earnest worker, but not destined to set the world on fire, though she may be nice, steady blaze in some town trying to don city airs-has electric lights and good street car lines

 Why then, should not the progress of Russia toward ConstantinOple be well comed by the western world as the only method by which the Turkish empire shall be safely dissolved? For by that method alone can the rise of Islam be prevented.

Twenty-Five years ago" she says,

days no houses were to be found outside
those magnificent walls, the gates OF
which were closed at night. Since
then many changes have taken place,
and the Hebrew population-mainly
on account OF the increase Of the Jewish
immigration from Russia-now stands
at between 10000, and 10000. Whole
