PARIS. BY Emile Zola. Translated by Ernef
Alfred Nizetelly. In two volumes. New York
The Macmillan CompaNy.

The Macmillan Company
This is the final work of the trioIogy
just finished by NJ ZoIa, IN which he de-
scribes the struggles of man in his choice
between religion and the material elements
OF life. The preceding books are already
ia miliar to the readers of the works OF
this writer, who has just been occupying
an altogether unique position before the
world through his Intervention in the ju
6icial proceedings of France These pre-
ceding volumes relate to Lourdes and
Rome. In the former the symbolic imper-
scnation of Man. the Able Froment. was
depicted seeking faith at the grotto
of Lourdes and hope amidst Of the theo-
cracy of the vatican. Paris represents the
final stage Of the process that in Zola's
words typefies the religious, decadence of the
French nation. the gradual surrendering
of theological principles and the submission
to what is called reason The picture
that the author paints Is not pleasing. 1t
is, in fact, even more revolving than most
others from the same hand. Paris
type can be and IN this work is worked into
d very striking DIT of realism. The scenes
utilized to carry conviction and to lend
color to the authors theories are sug-
eestive of degree of moral decay really
inConceivable save by the loosening of
the imagination. The translator is in sym
pathy with the author in the belief that
rance Is iettiHs go ner noiu Oh reliSloi
and that there is no hope of a reforma-
ticn in this respect. He Is likewise in
sympathy with the author in that he be-
lieves with him that Paris will rise from
her degradation and become part of
the progression toward better things. Thus
1t is to be seen that both Zola and his in
termediary of communication to the Eng
lish-reading public disassociate religion
from moral advancement. Their creed
may perhaps be stated in the concluding
words Of the preface, perfect truth and
perfect Justice NJ. Zola's personal ex-
reriences of the past few weeks give poig
nancy to his reflections along the line of
Justice"

MORRISON MURDER CASE.
The Sensational Trial of the Methodist
Minister.Accused OF UxorIcIde Now
In Progress mt Vernon, Tex

Fort Worth, Tex, Sept. ga sem
sational murder trial is in progress at
Vernon. Rev. G. E. Morrison, of Pan
Handle City, is accused of causing, the
death of his wife in October of last
year by poisoning her. Morrison was
pastor of the Northern Methodist
church in Pan Handle City. One night
his wife was discovered in commissions
and suddenly died. Her death was
suspicious and the authorities began
an investigation, which showed she
had been killed with strychnine. Mor'
risen was in the meantime arrested in
Topeka, Kas., and detained As hours,
when he was released, the laws of
Kansas not permitting detention long
er without sufficient grounds.
Morrison left Topeka, but was traced
through Illinois, Nebraska, Kansas,
Colorado, and to this city, finally be-
ing arrested in Los Angeles, CAL, April
1, 1898. 1t developed Morrison was en-.
gagged to Miss Annie Whittlesey, of
Topeka. A letter written her by Nor
rison few days before his wife's
death was read in court, in which he
addressed her in most endearing
terms. The case is attracting wide
spread interest not only in Texas, but
throughout the entire west.

THE FILIPINO CONGRESS.
tain the Army-The Question of
q Land Tax Debated.

Manila, Sept. 26.-The Filipino con-
gress is engaged in the question OF
raising funds to defray expenses of
the maintenance of the army pending
decision by the Paris conference.
Hitherto the army of the Filipinos has
been chiefly supported by public sub
scription, but now the native govern
ment contemplates the imposition or
various taxes.
The inhabitants of the northern
provinces, however, especially of PAM
pang and Ilocis, fatty refuse to pay
land or poll taxes, because it was the
popular impression that the revolu-
tionists would abolish taxation en-
tirely.
The natives of Pampang and Pam
eastman, the two richest agricultural
provinces of the island, and those OF
Ilocis and Zambales, who are the stur-
diest mountaineers. distrust the Ia
gals, and insist upon the establish
ment of an American protectorate.
Debated the Question OF q Land Tax.
Saturday the assembly debated the
question of a land tax. A majority of
the members were opposed to the
maintenance of a burden unequally
Tagals, and demanded that state
ment of expenditures be submitted
before the matter was decided. The
statement was not forthcoming, and
the question was shelved.
Aguinaldo realizes the difficulty of
reconciling the conflicting interests,
but hopes that the nations will allow
the Fiipinos a fair chance to show
that they are capable of self-govern-
ment.
Foment Trouble.
Aguinaldo desires to inform the
world that "there is conclusive evil
dence that many Spaniards and priests
are intriguing with faction of the
natives to foment disturbances, sc
that Americans will believe the whole
population to be irreconcilable."
He asserts that the intriguers pay
! money and provide uniforms to per
sons who impersonate rebel officers
and enter the town, ana he accuses
Eugene Blanco of being the chief paid
agent of these intriguers.
| The Filipino FIeet-Troop Ship Sunk by
Spanfards.
In the course of an interview with
the press correspondent Aguinaldo
said that the Filipino fleet comprises
eight steamers, which are now en-.
gaged in conveying troops for a grand
campaign against the Spanish garri-
sons in the southern islands. These
vessels are practically unarmed.
The Spanish gunboat Ell Cano, he
says, recently entered Masbate and
caught and sunk the Filipino troop
ship Burisan, which was lying at an.
chor there. q

efforts to save his men, and his exer-
tiols nearly cost him his life. He
finally caught line thrown to him

Misquoted Remarks.

from Michigan, SAID IN the course Oh
an interview:
Misquoted Remarks.
ssMy remarks about the volunteers
in a speech at Constantine, have been
misquoted. I was speaking at re-
union of the Nineteenth regiment. j
went to the front with it IS years ago
1t happened that some Michigan vol
unteers got mixed up in the Santiago
fight. I merely said that they had not
been intended for active fighting that
day. They had been sent off toward
Aguadores to make a feint. They got
into a cut and a shell was sent into
them, killing and wounding some.
Were Where They Had No Business.
They had mo business in the cut
and regulars would not have been
caught there. The volunteers were all
right at Santiago, Handicapped as they
were. They had black powder rifles,
for one thing, and they had not
learned what comes only from the
longest drilling and what constitutes
the ideal soldier-that is to stand with
other men without knowing it.
'It has been said that there were
10000 Krag-Joregnsens in the arsenal
during the Santiago campaign that
were never issued" said the reporter.
''Wen, I am not at the head of the
ordnance department, but the in
creased number of companies raised
the regular army by $4,000 men, and
these had to get Krags Immediately,
as they were expected to do the bulk
of the fighting. How many of the
small stock of Krags were left after
the $4,000 were equipped, can not
say"
mo one who has not seen can know
the effectiveness of smokeless powder
guns. Our batteries had black pow
der; the Spaniards smokeless-
1t AstonIshed Veterans.
"One day-the 10th or 18th of July
I was standing in the trenches trying
to make out with my glasses the TO-
cation of a Spanish battery. Our
battery was several hundred yards to
our left. We could hear the shells
leave the Spanish guns and pass over
US. We tried to locate the guns by
following the sound, but it was i'm
possible. Later we found that it was
more IHdn d lille. DSHinu d ITl1SsC OF
bushes, just thick enough to hide the
movements of the men. 1t astonished
me and other veterans who saw the
work of smokeless powder"
The scandals of the Camp
1.-THE scandals of the camp" struck
the general as the natural product of
inexperience among the soldiers.
''There has been gross carelessness
ON the part of the new men in sanitary
matters" he said. "You can't make
them understand the necessity of care.
They resent being bedeviled by their
officers for not picking up cigar stubs,
fruit Feelings, and doing such appa-
rently trivial things. In the civil war
we often started out with 1000 men,
and in six months lost 500 of them
through sickness.
Not So bad, After All.
what has befallen the mel who re-
ieved me at Santiago? They had no
such conflict with inclement weather
as we had. They have had plenty OF
food and complete tentage, but they
have 1900 sick out of 5000. So don't
think we did so badly
