The Future of Germany.

No one can prophecy the future of Germany. But so much at least seems clear-that it will largely depend on the course pursued by the socialists. Three alternatives seem open to them-they may indefinitely continue their present opposition to the government, and then they can only be source of weakness, or they may absorb the empire, trans forming it into a feudal state, fatal to liberty and therefore unstable, or they may, in return for certain timely COIL sessions, place their powerful organiza- tion at the service of the empire and be it's chief pillar of strength.
 This is the cOnsummation that every friend of Germany and of humanity must devoutly wish. It would bring ad- vantage to both sides and put an end to autocracy. The empire would have ta abandon its attempt to return to me- diRvaI military despotism and allow its subjects large liberty of thought, speech and action, while the socialists would have to abandon their notion of the state as a mere economic beehive and accent it as the great institution for raising man above slavery to physical needs in- to spiritual freedom and culture In this way Germany might be strong without being enslaved, and the present condi- tion of things, against which all thoughtful men rebel, might come to an end.-Professor Thomas Davidson in Forum.

Is the Sultan Made

A curious story, said to bo we'll au- thenticated, is going the rounds of the European press and explains much that is mysterious in the sultan's conduct Two days before the Bairam festival, so the tale runs, an aid-de-camp went to Abdul Hamid's room for orders and found him walking up and down with wild gesticulations and incoherent muT- murs. As soon az the sultan caught sight of the officer he exolaimsds "Son of a dog, what are you doing hersi Do you not see that I am converting with my father?' The aid-de-camp. Ia great alarm, was about to withdraw, when Abdul Hamid stopped him, saying, "Prostrate yourself before my father and then execute his commando
 Down dropped the trembling officer on his knees, awaiting the development of events with intense anxiety. A quar- ter of an hour later his horrible sus- pense came to an end, for the com mander of the faithful, bringing his promenade to an abrupt close. threw himself on divan. and. looking around the chamber, relieved the mind of the aid-de-camp by inquiring what be waa doing and why he had come. The suI- tan had completely forgotten the prsvi- ous scene.

Exploring the Upper Niger.

After an absence of three years the expedition under Lieutenant Hourst has safely returned to Europe from the Nj ger. The party ascendcd the Senegal river and then carried the sections of an aluminium boat overland to the up- per part of the Niger. On reaching this river the pieces of the boat were put to- gether and two native boats purchased. In these the expedition sailed down the Niger to Tim buktu, where a stay of ten months was made. The voyage from Timbuktu to Lokoja, at the con- duence of the Niger and Benue, seems to have been arduous, but from that point the expedition was lowed by launch belonging to the Royal Niger company to the coast at Wari. How much fresh typographical information Lieutenant Hourst's party has obtained is not yet stated. This will depend on the highest point reached on the Niger. Reuter- message states that the expedi
 tion first met the river Niger at Kayes,'' '' but that town is on the Sene- gal river. There can be no doubt, how ever, that much valuable scientific in- formation was obtained, for the expedi- tion travelled slowly and was admirably equipped. One novelty was the use of a photograph for reporting the native war songs. The expedition kept peace with the natives throughout the journey, ill which it differs greatly from some of those previously conducted by French explorers in that region. Nature.

Murderous Bludgeon Men In the Streets
 of

MurderOus Bludge0n Men In the streets
 of Constantinop1e.
 Such men as the bludgeon men one does not often see in the streets of Con- stantinopIe. Of the better class of Turks there were none among them. They were of class like the wharf rats and longshoremen of western lands. They were of all shades of color, from the white skinned Lag and Circassian to the brown and hook nosed kurd and the coal black Nubian from Africa. Their faces were a study of fearful passions. There were faces scanned and scared like the head of fighting bulldog; faces distorted by malice and greed; faces scared, as by fire case hardened in ig- norance of all except vice and ferocious as an angry tiger. Somo of those faces burned their way into my memory and remained for days, a haunting revela- tion of brutal instincts and beastly de- sires which made one wonder how it was possible to have lived in safety for weeks ill a city containing such men.
 These men were not armed, in the common sense of the word. Some of them had revolvers, and the most of them had knives. But they seldom used either, for awkward questions might be raised if the police were called to &C., count for failing to arrest armed civil ians on the streets. Carrying ax helves, pickax handles, heavy clubs, like base ball bats; jagged fragments of broken cantling-carrying anything that can crush the skull of man-this horrible rabble flooded the streets of all Chris tian quarters of the city, like an all des- plating tidal wave, silent but irresisti- ble. Their silence by day was almost as terrible as their howls by night. They would be scCn going along the street, when they would meet an Armenian who had ven ured to attempt to reach his homH Without a word they would break ill his skull and go on their way, entirely unmoved and hardly having spoken a loud word. If resistance was offered, they had only to say, 'The Giaours resst!" and horde of their fellows would come running from all directions to destroy one who had prov ed his seditious quality by daring to re. sist Mussulman.-"A Bystander' $ Notes of Massacre, " by Yvan Troshine, | in Scribner's

There is more Catarrh in this section Of the country than all other diseases put together, and until the last few years was supposed to be incurable. For great many years doctors pro- nounced it local disease, and prescribed local remedies and by constantly failing to cure with local treatment, pronounced it incurable Sct- ence has proven catarrh to be a constitutional disease, and, therefore, requires constitutional treatment Halls Catarh Cure, manufactured by F.

Stevens and Maynard.

Thaddeus Stevens was once opposed in debate by Horace Maynard of Tennessee. Maynard was very tall and straight and had long black hair which he wore we'll down over his coat collar, and which gave him somewhat the appearance of an Indian. It was even rumored that be had some aboriginal blood ill his veins Maynard prided himself on his scholar ly attainments, and at the close of his address he quoted one or two Latin verses. Old Thad replied to Maynard s argument in his usual vigorous manner and then paused for few seconds until he had secured the attention of the en- tire house. Turning to Maynard, who sat some distance behind him, he de- livered this parting shot: "So much for the gentleman's English. AS to his Choctaw, do not profess to understand it.
