on Wednesday assumed the honor of
having reigned longer than any other
British Queen or King. The longest
previous reign was that of George III,
which lasted fifty nine years and ninety
seven days. Victoria became Queen on
June 80. 1887, and therefore. reckoned
on the face of the calendar, did not
equal his record until September %,
that being fifty years and ninety
seven days from the date of her access
ion. But account must be taken, in
reckoning actual time elapsed, of the ex.
ira days of leap years. In the case of
George III the leap years 1760 and 1920
cannot be counted, since he succeeded
to the throne after February 30 of the
one. and died before February 20 of the
other, and year 1900 was not leap year.
Therefore he had in his reign three 29ths
Of February less than Victoria. and his
fifty-nine years were thus three days
shorter than hers. So she had to reign
only fifty-nine years and ninety four
days to equal his fifty nine years and
ninety seven days.

Queen Victoria early made visits to

the estate was purchased from the Earl

the present castle was begun on the site
OF the older castle.
The castle is the Scottish baronial

tary honors the party proceeded at once
by the Queens Special" to Balmoral
Castle, Queen Victoria's summer resi-
dence in the Highlands, arriving at the
Castle little after seven o'clock in the
evening.
This visit of the young Gear and
Czarina to Queen Victoria at her beau
tiful baronial summer residence is only
one of the royal visits the Gear is MAX
ing to his fellow sovereigns of Europe,
having already paid his respects to the
Emperors OF Germany and Austria and
after the visit to Balmoral,he will next
visit France.
To certain extent, therefore, this
visit may be said to have no political sig
niticance, but that it will be fruitful as
respects a better understanding with
Great Britain in regard to Abdul Ham
i'd, 1.-THE assassin who sits upon the
throne" on the shores of the Bosphorus,
is the reasonable hope of England and
America at least. 1t is time that the
Sultan of Turkey should be called to &C.
count for his outrages against civiliza-
tion, and should the Gear but speak the
word at Balmoral or at the coming con.
ference with the Marquis of Salisbury,
the dethronement of Abdul Hamid will
follow with swiftness that will rejoice
Christendom. Hence the interest the
world shows in this royal visit to Eng
lands Queen in the Highlands.
Aside, however, from all questions OF
European policies, the Gear and Gar

Castle ought to be delightful one.
Balmoral Castle is some sixty miles

lasts her time it is enough" Now, for
many years, her preference for Conser-
vatism has been undisguised, and more
than one Liberal statesman has ex-
pressed decided GOODNESS, not to say dis
affection, toward her. She began, too,
as favorite. almost an idol, of the Irish.
O'Connell once reused an Irish audience
to perfect frenzy of enthusiasm by
saying: I'VE must be, we are. loyal to
our young and lovely Queen. God bless
her! We must be, we are, attached to
the throne and to the lovely being by
whom it is filled. She is going to be
married. God bless the Queen! am
father and grand father, and in the
face of Heaven l pray with as much
honesty and fervency for Queen VIC
toria as l do for any Of my own pro-
geny." 1t is not necessary to recall the
more violent public expressions of Irish
opinion of late years to prove that there
has been a revolution of sentiment in
that respect. As for the general state
of England, it is sufficient to remember
that at the time of her accession the pill
lory was still in use. imprisonment for
debt and hanging for theft were in vogue.
and England was a slave-holding ma
ton.
A volume would be required even to
summarize the stupen dous advances Of
science during her reign. in achieving
which England has done her full share.
The railroad and steamship systems of
the world have been created. So have
the telegraph and the whole of electrical
science and engineering. Lister and
Pasteur have revolutionized the science
of medicine and surgery. and chemistry
has revolutionized all the arts. Oar
wiz and his colleagues and disciples have
opened the wonder books of nature.
The heart of the Dark Continent has
been penetrated and explored and the
furthest advance has been made toward
the Attic Pole. In every department o
human interest and welfare it has been
a marvellous era, the most noteworthy of
its length in all the history of the race.
For this as we'll as for personal and pc.
litical reasons, the occasion is worthy of
observation and the public celebration
of the sixtieth anniversary of the
Queens accession, next year. will doubt
less command such world wide attention
as scarcely any other such incident has
within our times.

Her reign will naturally be compared
with his in other respects than length.
1t is true that his was marked with
many glorious names in literature,
science and art, and with perhaps the
greatest two in Wellington and
Nelson-in all British history. 1t saw,
too, great achievements in science. great
victories in war, and great additions of
territory to the Empire; but it also saw
the incompatible loss of the thirteen
North American colonies and with them
the better half of the North American
continent. 1t saw the public debt
swelled to the unprecedented sum of
S4.000000.000. 1t saw repression of re-
ligious liberty and the personal author
ity of the King carried to such despotic
lengths that bill for restricting his
power was introduced into Parliament
and his carriage was stoned by mob in
the streets OF London. Victoria's reign
has seen greater works in literature and
art, incomparably greater progress in
science and discovery, and greater terri
torial extension Of the Empire. 1t has
also been marked by complete religious
equality, with Roman Catholic Lord
Chief Justice and Jewish Prime min
lister, and has been adorned with we'll
deserved personal popularity of the Sow
ereign unmatched in the history of the
realm.
An interesting contrast is alEo to be
drawn between the personal standing of
the Queen herself and the state of Fog
land in 1887 and in 1896. 1t will be re-
membered that she began her reign with
strong Wing, not to say Liberal, procliv-
tiles. A member of Parliament on the
Tory side of the House spoke OF her as
having been drought up under the aus
pices Of the citizen king of the Belgians."

Ottoman Empire. England has
protested, but in vain. She is, in
sense, answerable for Turkeys
good behavior, but she dare not
rebuke the Porte lest Russia come
to the Sultan's assistance, with the
possible consequence of a "Holy
War;" wherein England would find
herself attacked by Mohammedans
wherever her sway has Judgment in
Asia and Africa. Such war would
enable Russia to attempt the con-
quest of India, and might make all
Europe one vast battlefield. 1t is not
likely, making all due allowance for
Gladstone's sincerity, that he would
show himself 80 aggressive were the
present Ministry Liberal instead of
Conservative.
The condition of the Armenians is
pitiable. Men, women and children,
they have repeatedly been subjected
to slaughter by their Turkish rulers.
There is little doubt that most of the
outrages were deliberately planned
by the Sultan and his advisers from
sheer fanaticism and lust for Chris
tian blood. The Armenians, in in
stances, have been goaded into rebel
lion, and then whole towns have been
laid waste by the vile soldiery of
abdul the Damned" Russia acting
in concert with England, could halt
the Turk in his hellish work, but Rus
sia cares nothing for the Armenians,
and would delight to find England
forced into declaring war against the
Porte. Russia holds the key to the
situation. The natural enemy of
Great Britain, her great rival in the
spoliation of territory, Russia is Gag
erly awaiting an opportunity to profit
by England's dilemma. What is to
be the outcome? The future alone
can tell. The Armenians might seek
safety in flight, but for the fact that
Turkey is interposing every obstacle
to their emigration. Popular opinion
in Europe sh ould be aroused to the
situation. 1t is true that there
is no such thing as popular opinion
in Russia, but Russia could not face
all Europe were Germany, France,
Austria and the remaining Powers to
take sides with Great Britain for the

pire. Some day that Empire will be
shattered. Until them the Sultan
and his successors will continue their
war against Christianity, humanity
and civilization.-Ph Philadelphia Led

their religious study are coming to
know Jesus, are coming also to re-
joice in him, and to find exceeding
delight in the thought that all
shall know him from the least unto
the greatest, and to know Him in full
likeness is life eternal.
To rejoice in Jesus from ones own
understanding of him and to know
in ones own experience the ennobling
power of his fellowship, and to know
that such fellowship is to lead us
and all men unto fulness of life,
the Christian life, is the goal for
the race. Such splendid, hope,
such deathless motive, works
for all good with all. One who
has thus grasped our faith iand laid
hold upon it with the whole mind
and heart cannot but be fired with
devotion and zeal to make it the
faith of the world, especially as they
see the blindness and narrowness,
the indifference and atheism, the evil
and cruelty and sorrow and despair
that are cursing human fife, all for
the lack of this faith as vital power
in the heart to drive away such dark
ness.
All this and more, through their
religious culture, our young people
are coming to realize for themselves.
Our great doctrinal truths, the great
Christian truths, are coming to be an
abiding reality and powerAin their
daily life Through talking them and
thinking them they are coming to see
God and man and life and destiny
in the light of these truths, and see
ing Alright, and testing Universalism,
thus they are finding that it satisfies.
1t satisfies their highest spiritual
longing and their broadcast sympathy;
it meets fairly all the demands of
reason.
They feel it to be large enough to
give room and welcome to all new
truth. 1t makes God lovable and
prayer inviting. AS no other faith
can it spurs them to battle against
ignorance and sin as evils that must
be overcome. So it makes them strong
against all temptation, wise and pa
tient under every trial, hopeful to
work in every true reform. Through
their own experiences, the soul ex-
periences within and the social ex-
periences without, our young men
and women who have entlred Iuto Tie
devotional training of the Y P. G. U.
are becoming more and more con-
vinced that Universalism is NO
splendid faith. They are realizing
its supreme value for themselves and
for the world, and their hearts are
being enkindled with an abiding 10y
atty and devotion to the church whose
mission it is to declare such asfaith.
These are the young people. who will
not drift away; who will not falter
or complain when the church work
is becoming heavy; who will not
stop and wonder if it is worth while.
But they are moving forward with
minds intent, with Wills determined,
with hearts aglow to make the church
of tomorrow mighty for the faith
they have learned to love; and such
understanding, such appreciation,
such potent love, are the natural out
come of the rel gious training of the
Y. P. @. U. Well may such training
be maintained by our young people
with enthusiasm, and welcomed by
the older ones of the church with un-
feigned delight.
