Faust's Birthplace Sold.

From the Chicago Chronicle.
The. house in Roda, Sake -Altenburg.
where DR.. Johann Faust. the famous ma
sician and soothsayer of legendary fame,
was born toward the last quarter of the
fifteenth century. was knocked down to
a native for SO the other day, and is now
being dismantled. Five years ago, when
the. worlds fair commission dispatched a
small army of curiosity hunters to all
parts of the globe to seek attractions, the
good people of Roda asked a cool 500 600
for the little pile of brick. wood iron, NOR
tar and dust that was to be taken down
and re-erected in this city. But The price
was considered too stiff, and the negotia-
tions fell through. In order that the house
might not fall down. the municipal ia
theirs of the little town ordered it's inn
mediate de noliton.
This historic structure stood until uuite
recently on a rocky eminence near the
JeEaisches Thor (city gate). 1t was a frame
building. very rickety. and had been ex-
tensf9ely repaired. There Is a legend that
1t dated oack to the year 145O or 400, as
do, many other buildings of Roda. That
Faust saw the light In one of its dingy
rooms. with floors of trampled earth and
tiny windows in leaden frames is attested
by several authentic statements in the
town chronicle, and Also in the Faust
Buch." printed In 1887, from which all later
writer's on the Faust legend quote, and
which is their chief authority.

Labor for Road-BuiIainx,

HrOH tnc rev 1urt TstDJae.
The abnormal floods along the Missis-
sippi river have provoked much discussion
OF ways and means for preventing their
future recurrence or for restraining the
swollen stream within safe limits. Some
urge a stronger and higher system of le-
wees; others the opening of new, or reopen
ing Of old. channels, through which the
river may be partly or wholly diverted
from its present course, and others yet
other projects. all. of course. involving the
doing of much work and the spending of
much money. The further suggestion ia
made. as applicable for the execution of
any OF these schemes. that the manual Ia
Dor required on the vast job shall be done
by the able-bodted inmates of the prisons
OF the various interested states. This sug-
gestton is an eminently practical one and
1t leads to the further suggestion that
Just such Jobs afford the best possible field
for the employment Of convict labor.
Country and suburban roads, for ex-
ample. which in all parts Of the Union are
In need Of Improvement. This spring sea-
son Is the best of all times for road build-
ing. It is the very time when farmers and
villagers are most busy with other matters.
and can least well devote attention. to the
roads. And 1t h the time when the housed
up prisoners are most In need of whole
some occupation In the open air. There
are three elements Of the problem which
unerringly point to Its right solution If
to do work when 1t can best be done. with
the least possible disturbance Of other IN
dustries and at the lowest cost to the pro-
prietor and to the greatest benefit to the
workmen. and, indeed, to all concernedlf
that be business wisdom. the inmates OF
our state prisons should be set at road
making forthwith.
In. that way they WIN get the exercise
they need, the public viii get the much
ne]led good roads. and there win be no
competition between convict and free Ia
Dor. How much the convicts need such
work 10 demonstrated In the Kings county
penitentiafy. where the inmates are reported
to be In danger offgoing mad, some OF them
actually doing 30. through enforced idle
ness. How much improved roads are
needed almost any suburban or rural VII
lage will testify.

Possibilities of Arbitra ton,
aS-s. .m&w30t

Frederic r. Coudert in the Penhy Magazine.
The possibilities Of International arbitra-
tion are simply beyond computation. They
are infinite. If they should be carried out
only in part they would mock the pessf-
mists. bring sunshine upon those who take
dark views of humanity and make the opti-
mists too common for notice All the evils
OF the world are crowded into war. 1t is
the parent of every violation of law, hu-
man or divine. the aDologist for excess,
the friend of brutality. the advocate of sin,
and the father Of bankruptcy. 1t is the
black cloud that darkens the whole world
at this very moment
What is the object of war? If it Is to
settle questions between nations, when has
1t ever settled them? If 1t is to do Justice
when has 1t ever done justice? II it is to
settle rights. who will pretend that war
can settle rights or adjust honest differ
ences as thoroughly, as well and as safely
as a court composed of wise and expert
enced men who are anxious to do right?
