ideuce Tuesday evening. Mrs. Sa-
die Harvey prepared the class for it's
advance work by furnishing a con-
else and excellent review of the
work in universal literature already
accomplished. She led US to the
valley of the Nile and pointed out
a literature written in hieroglyph.
ics more than FIVE thousand years
ago and which the present century
has brought to light. From Egypt
she passed with the class to the
banks of the Euphrates where We
spent some time last spring look.

tedates that of the sons of Africa

tiers. She then called to mind our
work in the study of the Chinese
and Japanese language and gave
us a fine outline of the copious
E Hindo world and concluded with
the Hebrew and the perfect litera-
ture of the Greeks.
Mrs.. A. J. Thompson, the leader
of the class, then took up the ad.
vance work and introduced Roman
Literature. Here they discovered
that for the first five hundred years
Rome furnished only very feeble
light in literature; her work was
conquest by physical force She
stands out boldly in history as q
nation of robbers. All of her cities
were erected from the slaves taken
in war, and gorgeously ornamented
from the plumber of her conquests.
From the time she organized her
first small army at the foot of the
Capotoline Hill until her legions
outuumbered the regiments in our
civil war, and they had conquered
not only the peninsula of Italy, but
the nations surrounding the Medi-
terranean, that she could count on
auy literature and that was fur

mans; or, as the Roman poet, Hor.
ace, himself, has said, Captive
Greece took captive her rude con.
queror."
The first was Livy, a writer of
tragedy, who lived 24O years before
Christ, and the second Nevius, who
wrote an epic on the Punic war;
both were Greeks-not anything re-
mains of their works. The next
great name In Latin literature Is
Ennius. He is praised by Cicero
and Lucretius, and Virgil; but not
one of his own works remain.
Plantus came next, who described
himself thus: "a red-haired man,
with round protuberant stomach;
legs with stout calves. and of a
swarthy complexion; large head,
keen eyes, red face and monstrous
feet" This writer welded a vast
influence with the common people
with his comedies.
Mrs. Noble and Mr.. Hogan read
selections from one of his plays,
which amused the class very much.
Cato, the first, followed who was a
general, an orator, the founder of
Roman history, and an expert in
aw and agriculture. Cicero praises

The use of soaps cotaining a disin-

general that observations on the
practical value of such combina-
tions cannot fail to be much of
interest. DIR. Reithoffer has recent
Iy published the results of some
experiments carried out by him
with various kinds of soap, having
for object to determine their value
as microbicides. He used the ordi.
nary notified soap, white almond
soap perfumed with nitrobenzine
and hard potash soap. He found
that these soaps were very inimical
to the cholera microbe, l per cent
solution killing them in a short
space of time, while 8 per cent
solution killed them in FIVE miuuets.

that, az In washing the hands the

Corrigan, Mckinney s. Co. of Cleve-

on the Missabe range. have addressed
the following letter to the state rail
road and warehouse commissioner re-
lative to the proposed reduction of
the ore freight rate on the Duluth

s Iron Range roads:
CLEVELAND. May 20. lS9S.-The

men: We note by the newspapers
that theirs is case before you asking
for reduction of the rate from
Mesaba range to Duluth. Would say
that we are owners of the Commodore
mine at Virginia. Mimi. and have
been compelled to close the mine down
most Of the time for the past three
years on account of the excessive rate
charged by the railroad companies
from there to the lake, which is 80
cents per ton. We have other mines
on the Menominee ranges which have
a longer haul TO the lake, for which
the charges are in one case 40 cents
and the other 10 cents, The one pay
ing - cents is located at Crystal
Fails, Mich, and the ore Is shipped to
Escanaba, 81 miles, and in the other
case the mine is located at Negaunee.
Mich. 6l1 miles and ore carried to
Escanaba.
Would say that the Duluth & Iron
Range railroad +, as well as the Missabe
* Northern, are in the ore business
themselves, and each and every year
they sell the ore so low delivered at
! Lake Erie ports that independent
mines are not able to compete, and is
quite evident from the price they
charged for ore that they do not esti-
mate their own rail freight to exceed
| 80 cents per gross ton, and in that
way they are working great injury
/ to all owners Of mines in Minnesota,
and are bringing about such state
Of affairs as prevents eastern capital
from engaging in the mining business
and thereby do great injury to the
people already engaged in mining, and
TO the state generally, by keeping out
other capital and thereby smothering
the great industry which would soon
spring up.
One Of our firm would like very
much toappear before your honorable
body, if you would set time for a
hearing. Yours truly,

situation. And while they have not
