Purcells twofold genius for composition
sacred and secular-asserted itself from
the first. Wherever we look in his compo-
sitions, whether In anthem or in opera,
we are Immediately convinced of the ex-
ceptional power and genius that he pos
sessed to mold either vocal or instrumental
music. With Purcell it was a perfectly
natural thing to compose. The traditions
of the abbey eco years ago led older musi-
clans to delight in the abilities of the
youthful choristers, and no direction Of
talent was more regarded than that Of
compositions. Living in an atmosphere
of music, and with great things expected
of them, it was not uncommon for boys to
be found capable of composing, as occasion
required. Music was neither ground out
of them nor was 1t impaired with q Mig
gardly hand.
These choristers were trained for and
expected to become church musicians
without any fear and trembling as to how
soon they would displace their masters;
hence the order of the musician evolved.
During Puroells pupilage there was an
other particularly clever boy at the abbey,
Pelham Humphrey, capable of oompos.
ing the anthem" Pepys is to be trusted,
and his diary says, "The anthem was good
after the sermon, being the Fifty-frst
psalm, made for five voices by one of Cap
tain Cookies boys, a pretty boy, and they
say there are four or five Of them that can
do as much. "-Blackwood' Magazine.

Yncrease Of Russian Power.

Would western civilization be the gatneR
or the loser by an extension, amounting
to pfedominance, Of the Russian powers
The many amiable qualities Of the Russian
character, which perhaps no person is bet
ter qualified TO appreciate than the Traveller
who has enjoyed Russian hospitality, dis
arm those feelings OF unreasoning an-
tipathy which, when once they have arisen
between nations, are the most difficult to
allay. But the Russian government has
unhappily pFecluded itself from appealing
to the higher instincts Of the cultivated
European peoples.
Their ruthless treatment Of the Jews,
their cruel pan-Slavio polioy--nay, the re-
cent persecution Of that handful of Rus
sian coionists In Armenia who are reii-
gious exiles rather than colonists-debar
them from such an appeal Their COM
meroial policy is not calculated to enlist
the good will of the commercial GLASSES In
Europe. They have sealed up that natural
avenue Of western commerce with Asia by
the Black sea and the valley Of the Kur.
In this manner they have themselves af-
forded the strongest and most realistic ar
guments to those who still see In the Rus
sian empire menace to all that Europe
holds dear, and who quote the prophecy Of
the first Napoleon that Europe would
again be overrun and her institutions over
turned by the barbarians of the north

The Fair at st. Malo.

The streets of ST. Malo ore gay; here
are great yellow oilskins and sou westers,
brilliant green blankets and striped rugs;
there are the stout cottons to make the
bags Of chaff which are all their bedding,
in gaudy checks of orange, red and blue.
There are blue jerseys, fiat woolen caps,
huge knitted comforters and padded
gloves; there are high boots coming up to
the knee and green or scarlet socks and
piles of great heavy sabots. And all the
smaller shops have set out shelves spread
with cheap sweetmeats and oranges, col
ored paper flowers and common toys, or
with bright ribbons and gayly colored pins
and rings and brooches, while up and
down the street men pass, bearing trays
or baskets and selling trifies Of all sorts,
which they cry monotonously.
"Ki-kiri-KiW chants the merchant of
caramel apples, with his forest Of scarlet
balls, perched on slender sticks. "Ki-kiri-

are sweetmeats, responds,

Japan Up 20 Date.

Japan is going ahead. ITS first big
swindle is really a very creditable piece
of roguery for such young nation. Mr..
Hamano, the member of t. diet and
pastor of the Greek church ut Tokyo,
who is also president of the Japan Cast
Iron company. belongs to politico-re-
ligious type already familiar in the older
haunts of commercial morality, The
municipality of Tokyo had decided to
undertake a waterworks system, and had
obtained subsidy from the government
of 10, 900, 600 yen in aid of the total es-
innate of S0,000,0 900. In patriotic mo-
ment some of this outlay of japanese
money on water pipes was kept for the
Japan Cast Iron company, but the result
has only been to artificially foster for
eign rather than home industries.
Bya most ingenious device about 500
tons of defective pipes were laid after
they had been rejected by the clerk Of
the works, and the Tokyo citizens, it is
estimated, thereby suffer loss of about
1000, 900 yen.
The officials of the company are now
awaiting trial-which apparently doe:

from assuming their guilt. janis

This Is O question which is now freely
discussed In this country, and in view Of
this fact 1t is interesting to note that sew
eral of his majestys Hohenzollern progen.
itors were either insane OF close on tho
verge Of lunacy.
Frederick of Nuremberg, for example,
who Is regarded as the founder of the
house of Hohenzollern, was one of the
most eccentric rulers of his time. 1t was
he who invented the Nuremberg maiden"
that fearful instrument of torture In
the shape of woman, whose arms, stud
ded with spikes, pierced the body of the
victim until he died. This monarch had q
veritable craze for watching his fellow
creatures suffer-
Then again Albert, the grandson of
Frederick, was madman. He was en-
dowed with great physical strength and
used to knock his subjects down at every
opportunity just for the fun of the thing.
George William, the second duke of
Prussia, spent considerable portion Of
his reign under restraint for mental dis
case. He thought himself a god and in
sisted upon people worshiping him-a pc.
culiarity that seems to be developing in
william II.

fered from mental trouble, and Frederick

Ambrose seemed to know great deal
about moose, after all. He told the boys
how, back from the narrow valley and
the swift, winding stream, the country
was all wilderness, hillsides clad
with birches, naples and evergreens,
and resting at their feet little lakes, so
numerous that no man knew how many
there were. Often, where these lakes
were shallow, the yellow pond lily
with its oval leaves crowded the sur
face. At other seasons the tender bark Of
mountain ashes and moosewoods are the
favorite food of the moose, but now
there is nothing he likes so we'll as the
long tubular roots of the lily. In the very
early mornings, and in the evenings,
about the time Of the harvest moon
the full moon nearest Sept. 21-a hol-
low sound, not unlike the sound of dis
tant chopping, may be heard. It is the
sound of moose calling to their mates
or the angry challenge Of fierce rivals.
1t is this sound which the hunter imi-
tates to attract the moose. But there
are only few places where the moose
will answer, shallow spots in certain
we'll known lakes, and it is said to ba
nearly useless to call anywhere else. -.

A Hungarian Legend.

The young prince, fair as god, was
mortally wounded. He had been hunting
In the dark forest, dreaming Of the golden
tresses Of the princess, his wife, when a
wild boar attacked and wounded him with
his cruel tusks. And the prince, pale as a
bunch Of jasmine, was stretched on the
bed, his noble blood staining the damask
coverlet. Around the bed three mourners
The mother cried:
lives in the dark forest, and he will give
us balm that heals"
And they went. The magician said un-
to them:
II can heal the young prince, but to pay
me for this wonderful balm want the
mothers right arm, the sisters right hand
with the ring on it and the wife's golden
tresses."
The mother answered:
us that allp Take my arm"
And the sister cried:
"Take also my white hand and the ring
upon it."
But the bride walled and wrung her
hands.
"Alas and alacki Will have to give up
my lovely golden tressesP cannot do it. I
cannotP'
Thereupon the magician kept his balm
and the young prince died Around the
dead body stood three mourners, and they
wept night and day The mother wept and
held in her arms the head Of her lovely
dead son, the prince. The sister wept at
his feet and the bride wept on his heart
his cold heart that throbbed so tenderly
for love of her heavy golden tresses. And
where the mothers tears fell there grew a
wide river, whose immortal waves will
flow on forever. And the sisters tears be-
came fountain pure as crystal. And
where the bride had wept there was a
small puddle--and the first sunheams

Obedfent Soldiers.

A drill instructor of certain regiment,
being of a thirsty nature, often took the
men he was drilling roEnd near to the
canteen, to be far from "the madding
crowd" He would march them up to the
oanteen door, call Fright about" then
dive into the canteen, always emerging in
time to give them another command be-
fore they reached the end Of the parade
ground. One day, however, as he was
drinking pint of beer, some of 1t almost
ohoked him. Out he rushed, spluttering
and coughing, just In timo to see six Of
the men marching throrgha gate and the
rest standing, marking time, with their
faces close to the wall. Before he got his
throat cleared the colonel came upon the
scene, and at'onoe commenced to make
inquiries. That man does not drill the
recruits now. The six who disappeared
were discovered about mile off, still
marching, and were complimented for
obedience to orders. London Telegraph.

THE BODY AND THE MIND.

DR.. Pnrkhurst on the Great Nalue OF EnyB
ical Development.
In his article on "The Best Thing In
the World" Rev. Charles H. Park.
hurst, D. D., in The Ladies' Home Jour
nal, discusses with forceful emphasis
physical development, and lends point
to his argument by scintillating cpl
grams, some of which are here given:
"Asceticism and debauchery are COM
panion branches sprung from one stalk.
Fidelity to physical conditions is
the first thing for. man to think of
who has any ambition to be personal
success, and not only the first thing for
him to think of, but the thing for him
to seriously continue thinking of.
"Those various anomalies Of intellect
classed under the general term Of in
sanity have their grounds in some alb
normal condition of the physical organ
ism.
"Climb high as We like our ladder

could be carried so far, be discovered tc

terial affair that we know as the body.

physiology were not Of kind to inter

The Fight with Africans and Asiatics.

The plain truth is that the natural fight
ing power of Asiatics and Africans Is very
nearly equal to that of Europeans-so near
ly equal that whenever the dark men arc
even decently organized and armed, or led
by O man of capacity, the white mems ad-
vantage disappears, and they have to fight
with all the care and generalship and even
numbers which they would require in Eu-
rope. 1t Is assumed that these things will
never occur, but the assumption Is very
large one, and by no means borne out by
past facts. We all know and admit that
the necessary change has occurred in
Japan, and no European power would now
invade that country without taking all tho
precautions it would take If 1t were invad-
ing European state. Indeed Russia is
actually accommodating a great army In
eastern Siberia-90, 900 men, 1t Is said
In fear lest the Japanese, If too much
pressed, should invade her.
The ameer Of Afghanistan is accumu-
lating European weapons year by year and
is actually manufacturing them in such
quantities that, should we ever come into
conflict with his successor, the general In
command will have to be as careful as II
he were face to face with European foe.
It is not General Roberts who will tell
anybody that the conquest of Afghanistan,
supposing that our democracy decided on
that foolish enterprise, would be an easy
task or military parade. And now, in
Abyssinia, European army has been &C.
tually destroyed by an African power,
whose soldiers, though no doubt of Semitic
blood, are most of them darker than any
great tribe of Asiatics. The Italians were
Of the best blood Of Europe, they belonged
to an army trained for 80 years to meet
European opponents, they carried weapons
of precision, and they died in a proportion
to their numbers most unusual In warfare,
yet they were swept in utter rout out OF
the hills and had Menelek but pursued, as
o European general would have done,
would have been swept out of Africa
