a poE- READING HIS POEMS.
Tenpyson Inspired Ills Hearers with Deep
Emotion.

TenDyson would dolight us, and any of

by reading to us some Of his poems
have heard him rcnd "Ouineyero" and
many other Of his poems He read In
sort OF rccitative, somewhat monotoDously

with such deep emotion that the effect
was indescribabio 1 once asked him W

Two Of his readings are Impressed on
my memory with special viyidness. Ono
was 1.-The Revenge, which be read tor

Among them was my parishioDer, the late
lord chancellor. Lord Hatherley-one OF

knew--toward whom Mr.. Tennyson seem
cd to be Immediately drawn. The effect
of his reading Of that noble piece was like
that Of vivid picture, as his rich, sono'
rous voice rose and fell with the changes
Of the impassioncd story.
The others were much longer readings.
He read us the whole Of "Quecn Mary"
before 1t was published. 1t has never been
among the more popular OF bis works, and
believe that on the stage, even with Sir
Henry Irving to help, 1t was not dramat

We are a Great Lot. We are.

We are the only nation that spends
more for public schools that for fatten.
ing the public vampire of militarism.
The school Libraries alone in the Uni
ted States contain 100000 more vol
umes than the libraries of all kinds in
Europe. OF the $4,000 newspapers of
the world we have one half. Such
magazines as our popular illustrated
monthlies are the amaze of the old
world; they can not have such publi-
cations because they have not the large
number Of intelligent people to buy
them.
Even in more learned fields we are
ahead. America has produced the two
dictionaries that are the standards of
the English speaking people. Over
100000 sets of the Encyclopedia Britain
MICA have been taken in this country,
while only one tenth of that number
have been disposed of in Britain and
her colonies. The sales of the Ameri.
can Encyclopedia amounted to over
100000 sets and represent $4,000, 900
paid by the people for one work. The

The Howl About Plutocracy.

We spend sleepless nights worrying
over the threatening specter of vast
wealth units. | will not deny that there
are dangers ahead In that direction,
but there is consolation in rejecting
upon how most of these great fortunes
were made. 1t is common to say that
they are the result of unrighteous com.
binations and trusts-we call them rob.
bers and tyrants, while the fact is,
that, although much money has been
made wickedly, the principal part of
the corporate wealth of the United
States has been accumulated simply
by cheapening the cost of production.
While a few men have grown very
rich, yet the bulk of the profit of their
business has gone to the consumers,
who have been enabled to buy things
cheaper because of the enterprise of
capital. Inventive genius, business
capacity and combined capital are the
wealth makers among us, and these
three grow only as they benefi the
mass of the consumers, while the
wealthy men of other ages have added
to their piles of pelf by impoverishing
the populace. Our wealth units are of
a kind that can only exist in a prosper.
GUS community. Kings, barons and
princes flourish among slaves, helots
and poems.
We have doubtless dangers yet be-
fore us, and perplexing problems still
to solve, but l think no crisis will be
SO grave that the American people are
unable to meet it.
1t is time we cease groaning over our
miseries and begin to thank God we
are 80 fortunate, for HE hath not dealt
80 with any nation"
If we have any cause for complaint
it ia that we are "too beastly prosper.

pitiable. Whenever the Democratic

on one man alone, then that party is

Occasional variations in these and

SENSATION IN HAVANA.
News of Gen. Weyler'S Failure in the Orient
no Longer a Secret.
JACK RABBIT.

News of Gen. Weyler'S Failure in the Orient
no Longer Secret.
Havana, Jaly 5. via Key West, July O.
The news sent last week that on
Sunday, June 81, Gen. Gomez crossed
the River Ranaba, which forms part
OF the southern boundary of Matan zas
Province, and entered that province is
fully confirmed today. A Spanish of.
ficial report says that in the jurisdic.
tlon of Cienfuego the bands of Gen.
Garlic and other Cuban leaders are
trying to protect Gen. Gomez g march
toward the west and save him from ex.
termination by the Spanish. The re-
port received today does not clearly in
dicate how far to the west Gen. Gomez
has advanced, but it is certain that he
reached the Province of Matanzas at
the time named above.
Gen. Garlic, with 1000 men, Joined
Gomez more than eight months ago
and is dow going westward with the
Cuban Commander in Chief. All the
plans of Gen. Weyler in the Orient
have been blighted by this clever
movement of Gomez to the West.
When Weyler thought he could safely
withdraw forty battalions from the
Provinces of Matanzas, Havana and
Pinar Del Rio to crush Gen. Garcia in
the east. Gomez, who was believed by
the Spaniards to be with few follow.
ers in Santa Clara Province, fell sud-
denly on Matanzas with 5000 men.
Gen. Weyler has been obliged to
abandon his Santiago de Cuba cam
paign and march hurriedly back west
to stop Gomez's western advance.
What is sadder still for Weyler is the
fact that behind his columns comes
Gen. Garsica, who, after moving to the
east from Ciego de Avila to meet Wey-
Ter when he saw that the Spaniards
were withdrawing to the west, again
approached the trocha with his artil.
lery with the evident purpose of forcing
it and attacking the Spanish rear
guard.
The sensation produced in Havana
by all this news is beyond description
and it Is generally believed that in
spite of all the support given to him by
Canovas the central Government will
have to recall Weyler. The CORES.
pondents of Ell Heraldo and Ell Impair
cial have sent today to Key West, by
special boats, long dispatches to Madrid
in which the gravity Of the situation is
described. 1t is fully ackno wledged
that Gomez has outwitted Weyler, and
that the situation is very humiliating
for the Spanish commander.
On the west side of the River Habana
Gen. Gomez met two Spanish columns,
utterly routing them. and then pro.
ceeding on his march. This is the en-
gagement which has been reported by
the Spaniards as having been lost by
Garlic and Banderas. The chief of
Gomez g cavalry, Col. Calunga, made
two charges after the infantry under
Garlic had fired tor more than two
hours upon the Spanish columns. The
Spaniards retired.
Gen. Weyler has now ordered all his
forces in Havana to oppose the ad.
vance of Gomez on the capitol.
