Bouteile pointed out that the govern

did not believe the scope OF the govern

The amendment was lost.

THE STAR or JAINIsM."
Comes From Bombay to Teach Us the
HindoO Religion,

Comes From Bombay to Teach Us the
Hindoo Religion.
MOI least prominent amone orientals
whom Chicagoans will remember rs
taking prominent part In the parlia-
ment OF religions In worlds fair days
was VirchaEd r. Gandhi, He is secre-
tary OF the Jain association. an Indian
religious body said to have 5000, 900
members. Mr.. Gandhi Is once more in
his country, having come tt acquaint
the American people with the doctrin rs
taught by his religion. He believes
that when oriental religion Is present
ed, Invested OF the narrowing infu-
ehces which certain sects have impos-
ed upoH. it, the result will be a revela-
ton to the people of the west. When
he was here for the first time he was
deeply impressed by the system of
common schools In this country. And
so he has come back to interest Ameri-
cans in the problem of education Ill
India. 1.-THE great need of the coun-
try" he said, is free schools for the
masses. Ninety per cent of the popu-
lation cannot read or write. The coun-
try has been under one form or another
OF foreign rule for 5000 years. The re-
suit has been mental inactivity and
lack OF ambition in the majority of
the people. Education, free education,
is the only way to raise them out of
their present condition. In my opinion.
the best way to begin is to educate the
women, who will in turn teach the
cnlldren; and so | have started the
international Society for the Educa-
tlon OF the Women of India" The
jams, of whom Mr.. Gandhi is a leader,
are the most enlightened and catholic
religious body in India. In their teach
ing there is little or no separate dogma.
IhIy take the various religions of the
World, and endeavor tt draw the es-
sential truths from each. AS a result
they hold that the fundamentals of all
the chief religions are the same. The
jams divide existence into four states.
The lowest, Naraka, is somewhat akin
to the Christian hell; the next, TRY
arch, is that of the minerals, vege-
tables, and lower orders of sentient
beings. the third is Manushyra, or that
of man; while Deva is the state of
the jewellers in the celestial world.
Nirvana is termed Moksha, the state
of existence in which mans soul has
thrown off the trammels of matter and
become divine. God, in the sense of an
extra-cosmic personality, has no place
in the Jain philosophy. They consider
such a belief illogical, but hold that
there is a subtle, eternal essence un-
DERIVING all creation, conscious and I'M
conscious, which Is the cause of all the
myriad notifications of the infinite,
MI. Gandhi is now in the east, where
he will stay for a few weeks, after
ward visiting Chicago and some of the
smaller cities.

From the Westminster Gazette: With
The gradual extinction, as evidenced by
the recently issued return of the Cape
agricultural department, of the various
species of big game in South Africa,
it is not surprising to learn from a re-
port just made to the colonial Office
that monkey skins are scarcer than
formerly on the gold coast, the increas-
ing warfare which is carried on against
these unfortunate animals having re-
suited in a total determination of the
species in the less distant provinces,
In 1894 no fewer than 16S, 405 skins
we're exported, valued at 941,001,
whereas last year the number fell to
81, $50.

For day wear is commended a blouse
in Parma violet silk with a tucked boil
ero fastening over at the left side with
some eminently decorative little but
tons in steel and diamonds, while be-
meath the pouched fullness of
ivory lace over white chiffon.
Another blouse is a rather more
elaborate affair of white silk yelled
with chiffon and trimmed with mellow
tinted lace. The folded waistband is
of green velvet and the lapels of the
same well-contrasted material are en-
broidered in silver and white, the ell
bow sleeves being made notable by en-
circling bands of dark fur.
An evening blouse in pink net over
silk has many encircling rows of baby
ribbon velvet in a deeper shade and
boasts, moreover, of a deep collar of
chiffon, all gathered and frilled. The
left side is adorned with three bows of
black velvet and as many little dia-
mond buckles and a trail of Banksia
roses falls over the shoulders.
A little tea gown which ought to
have a signal success was of pink satin,
lightly trimmed with fine blond lace,
and the bodice, prettily fulled in front,
was drawn up to a V of white satin
richly embroidered in silver, pearls
and diamonds to match the pointed
belt; the high Medici collar was Of
quilted chiffon and the graceful angel
| sleeves of blond lace.
White, with lightly laid touches of
jet and steel, is an alliance to be reck-
oned with, as may be gathered from
the outlines of this very dainty tea
| jacket in creamy white satin, with a
guipure pattern wrought in beads and
paillettes of steel and cut jet, three
large buttons at each side of the coat
i shaped fronts bearing out this decora-
ton, as we'll as a buckle to mark the
waist and confine those frills Of silk
embroidered lisse which trim both
sides of front. The sleeves are worth
notice, being composed of an embroid'
cred strap of satin, into which chiffon
is fully gathered.
