Greece and the Greeks.

The present agitation of the Greek
question has increased the interest Of
the public in all matters pertaining to
the classic country. One Of the SUBJ
iects which has caused widespread
wonder is how the modern Greek SOL
dier gives such a ballet-like effect to
his skirts. A traveller in that country
has offered the following as an ex-
PLANTATION: Instead of wrapping his
kilt about him only once the man of
arms envelops his figure with turn
after turn of the stiff white linen, till
the required degree Of stand-out effect
is reached. and his shirt is on level
with his waist. This same traveller re-
marks upon the curious effect of incon-
sistency that is evident when a visitor
to one Of the beautiful old ruins finds
himself gazing on only a plaster cast
Of the classic buildings and structures,
while a placard announces that the
original may be seen in the museums
of Europe or America.

icing and the French glace, ice. The
substance itself is the dried membranes
OF certain kinds Of fish. Formerly only
the air bladder Of the sturgeon was
used, but in the last few years it was
discovered that many other portions Of
the body of the fish yielded isinglass of
as good quality as the air bladder, and
now isinglass is procured from many
different quarters instead Of, as for
merly, solely from the Russian fisher
les Of the Baltic Sea. Isinglass is near
ly pure gelatine, the ease with which
this substance IS separated from the
membranes Of the fish constituting the
value of the material in the arts and
sciences. The most remarkable varie-
ty Of isinglass comes from the mouths
Of the Amazon, resembling reddish
brown grapes growing from thick,
apparently woody, stem, this variety
being the dried eggs of the Sudis gigas,
fish abundant in the Amazon.

cided to spend much of his time and
money in helping his suffering fellow
countrymen. The sum above named
will be wisely invested and the interest
money from it will be spent in relieving
widows and orphans in the vicinity Of
Mr.. Hooley's big estates in Derbyshire.
But this is only one Of his philan-
thropic schemes. He has attracted the
attention Of the socialists with his plan
for pensioning every old man in Great
Britain, or. say, every man who is no
longer able to earn his own living. Mr.
Hooley proposes to do this in manner
which will not tax the rich in excess Of
the poor. His purpose is to levy tariff
of 5 shillings quarter on all corn Inn
ported into the country. This tax, he
argues, would fall with scarcely any
effect whatever on the well-to-do, and
would in no wise inconvenience the
workingman, who would, in the end,
be benefited by it when he would reach
an age at which he was no longer able
to earn a livelihood. The millionaire
promoter says that with twelve good
men to aid him in the work he could
carry his scheme through in less than
six months. Mr. Hooley has lately turn
ed his attention to the pursuit Of agri-
culture. He is one of the greatest sheep
breeders in England, and is also cattle
raiser. He is only 3S years old.

The Nor1nans.

Historians are constantly reminding
people that there is scarcely foot Of
soil owned in England now by the de-
scendants of the Norman conquerors,
all the property having gradually come
again into the possession Of the Sax
ons, who originally owned it. One of
the rare exceptions to this state of
things is Trafford Park, which until a
year ago remained in the possession of
the same family which has held it for
over eight hundred years, the Traf-
fords of Trafford. Randolph, Lord of
TraffOrd. who lived in the reigns of
Canute and Edward the Confessor dy-
ing about 1850, was the head of this
ancient house. which for 800 years has
enjoyed an unbroken line Of male sue
cessors, and whose land has not suffer
ed alienation during all the changes of
this time. The old place is one Of the
most romantic and picturesque spots in
all England, and, lying as it does just
without the city of Manchester, it is
greatly admired by visitors. There are
nearly 1000 acres in the estate. The
hall will shortly be turned into hotel
and the grounds converted into parks

Italy's next queen will be the most
remarkable woman ruler in the modern
history Of the world. She has the cour-
age Of a lion, the physique of an Anna
zon, the spirit Of Joan dare. She is
perfectly at home in the saddle, and is
an expert with the rifle. The princess,
moreover, takes keen delight in shoot
ing birds with a revolver, and so great
Is her skill with that weapon that even
the smallest animal falls an easy prey
to her unerring aim. The number of
languages with which she is thoroughly
conversant is half a dozen, and she
knows the political intricacies Of Eu-
rope as well as a prime minister.
Though a lover Of the wild and fero-
cious, she has enough intelligence and
training to make her a finished woman

A Senatorial CONTRAST.

Senators Sumner and Wilson were
frequent guests at "The Old Elms"-!
the country seat of eX-Goy. Claflin I'M
Newtonville-and when they met there,
the family found it interesting to OBJ
serve the contrast in the two men.
Sumner was always stately and dig
nified," writes Mrs. Claflin in her lit
tie book, ""Under the Elms," while Mr..
Wilson was careless in his language I'M
ordinary conversation. He often said,
Sumner is in agony when rise to
speak in the Senate for fear Massachu-
setts will be disgraced by my bad gram
mar
But strange to say, careless as Mr.
Wilson was in everyday Life, and for
getful as he was Of social etiquette and
requirements, he rarely made q gram
matical error in his public speeches.
and he commanded as much respect
and attention in the Senate as any mani
who lifted his voice in that august as
sembly.
"It must be remembered that Mr.
Wilson had no advantages Of family
and in his youth none of society or edu-
he had only the light Of a pine-knot to
read by until after he was 21 years Of
age. His twenty-frst birthday oc-
cured on Saturday, and the hard-
fsted old man with whom he had spent,
most of his life, and whom he had faith
fully served, told him that he could re-
main over Sunday in his house by pay-
ing so cents.
"NIr. Sumner had had every advan4
tage of family and position. education3

with knowledge on almost all subj

Soon after the war Mr.. Wilson wast
stricken with paralysis. AS he ralliedj

and were left on the plains to be eaten
by the vultures and the wolves. Be-
hind there were left broken families,
robbed of sons, husbands and fathers.
Two women and children so left alone
fled in fright like young parridges, and
hid themselves in thickets and swamps
until all seemed quiet. In the night
time they fled from their homes into

points in history right He has COM

each of the surviving Pottawatomie
Indians in Michigan and northern In
dian, which was tacit acknowledge
ment of the truth Of his contention that
past treaty obligations had not been
fully met. He shows, too, that his
father received only three cents an acre
for the vast tract covering Chicago and
it's vicinity. He also has proven that
the soldiers evacuated Fort Dearborn
of their own free will, and through no
governmental order. Pokagon is old
but he has deal of energy and indie
pendence remaining, and he seems tc
be earnest in his determination to show
that his people were not the entire ag
gressors in the great Chicago massacre

Coal from Turf.

Another plan for turning to account
forces of nature as yet dimly under
stood is reported from Scandinavia,
where savant has discovered a meth
cd of converting turf into coal. The
turf is placed in retorts and gradually
heated to 250 degrees. The retorts are
then closed and the temperature kept
up for seven hours. The tar and gas
products are thus retained in the coal
mass to the extent Of 80 per cent, and
the resultant is said to contain 65 per
cent Of carbon 6 per cent Of hydrogen,
81 water and per cent of ashes. Turf
coal gives about the same amount of
heat as seconds, and has been tested
both in Krupp's iron foundry and for
domestic purposes. One thousand kilos
are sold for rs, the cost of preparing
it being about 3s.

tn Set His Race Richt.

1nbishut, which stands amid the fire.
,,osted remains of what was once a
GREAT Michigan pine forest, Pokagon,
+ha chief of the Pottawatomies, is writ
,nc book. The aged Indian is toiling
carly and late, so that before he dies
his race may be set right in the world.
His narrative will give for the first time
fine Indians side of the story of the
chicago massacre, though Pokagon will
reject the word massacre and call it a
fght-a square, open, manly fight.
"When whites are killed it is mas
sacre," he says naively; when Indians
are killed it is a fight. So it has ever
been and so it always will be until the
last of my color has taken the journey
beyond the grave upon which l myself
must soon set out"
Pokagon is the son Of the chief of the
same name who, with Chief Potenee-
bee. led a party Of Pottawatomies at the
Chicago massacre. The living Pokagon
is an old man and the tale that he will
tell the white people Of the fight near
the cottonwood tree and Of the wrongs
of the Indians prior to that event-and
after it as well-will be given just as
he heard it dropped from the lips of his
father, called by 500 braves the "Great
Chief"
He claims that all the written stories
of the Fort Dearborn massacre are
wrong. In these it is represented that
in,
ing but because they loved to spill
blood. Pokagon claims that it was a
broken treaty that led to all the trouble.
The Mitchell capital. (Mitchell, Dakota [S.D.]) 1879-1918, 1897-05-14

Such sacred compact was made be-
tween the soldiers and the savages,
when Fort Dearborn was placed in the
country that the latter owned. This
was violated from the first, Pokagon
says. Various goods promised him were
never delivered, but liquor was peddled
out until his tribe became at times like
madmen.

Van Bibber's Benevolence.

Van Bibber, the favorite hero Of MIL
Richard Harding Davis, now and then
turns up outside Of his chronicler's i'm;
Boston Transcript, he appeared at the,
Old Colony station, in the form Of al
prompt. benevolent young man, hurry
ing to catch his train.
He was approached by one of the pro-
fessional unfortunates who haunt
crowded places, and have a practiced4
eye for well-dressed and substantial
pay his fare to Quincy. The appeal
met with an instant response.
Certainly" said the gentleman, "n
am going to Quincy myself, and the4

astonished beneficiary by the shoulder
he dragged him on board, and the carsi
whirled off.

Cant help it, this is an express train
and doesn't stop this side of Quincy"
The captured fraud had no help for
it. He had just what he asked for, and
was landed on schedule time in that nc
license city, eight miles from a drink,
cursing his luck and the too prompt
benevolence and superior strength of
his benefactor, but impressed by a

The effect of the assassination of Cano-
vas has been to stir the European press
to renewed agitation for stern meas
ures to suppress anarchtsm. This policy
is advocated by the more respectable So
clalist organs as well as by the govern
ment journals. and It need surprise no
one to see strong pressure brought to
bear for more stringent laws against an
archIsm. The many similar crimes that
have been committed in recent years in
Europe have brought on the feeling that
something aggressive should be done.
The anarchist societies are secret and
the assasslps are chosen by secret ballot.
Only the most complete detective service
can ferret out either the haunts or the
members of the societies and no one
knows who is the next public man mark
cd for death With such a state Of af-
fairs existing It is no wonder that each
fresh assassination arouses apprehen-
sion among the people of Europe. An
archists are fanatics who do not hesitate
TO carry out the DEGREES of their super
Tors In the face Of certain capture and
death for themselves, and on this ac-
count they are all the more dangerous
While they are not great in numbers and
can never accomplish the purpose Of
their organizatIon-the overthrow of all
r,,vernmpnt they can keen EurOpe In
constant terror by their sporadic out
breaks and it behoovee the governments
OF Europe to take united action to sup
press them entirely II such a thing is
possible. And with such a movement In
Europe the United States should see to it
that tne anarchists, in being driven from
that continent. do not find n refuge in
this country, as some have already done.
