HUMoRS OF CLERICAL LIFE.
Experience That Diversity the Parsons

Experience That Diversity the Parsons
 Routine.
 I once asked a district nurse how the various sick cases had been going on during my absence from the parish. At once the look which knew so well crossed her face, but her professional pride strove for the mastery with the due unctuousness which she con- sidered necessary for the occasion. At last she evolved the following strange mixture: "Middling well, sir; some of 'em's gone straight to glory, but I am glad to say others are nicely on the mend"
 On another occasion a man who be- longed to a workingmens club in the parish was telling me the strange his tory of his life. He had been deserted by his father and mother and more or less dragged up by an old aunt who had taken him in. From the age of twelve he had had to fight his own bat tie, and uncommonly well he had fought it. could see how proud he nat urally enough was of his success. But in the midst of his boasting he seemed suddenly to realize that perhaps he owed something to a higher power, or, at least, he ought to say so; so he went on, You see, sir, I ave always 'ad to fend for mysen iver since l was a scrap of lad''-then a pause-'least- wise, in course, wi a bit O 'elp from tn Almighty" It was certainly quaintly put, but I believe genuinely meant.
 Speaking of the undue stress often laid on little things, the local papers of our country towns are at times de- lightful in this way. Of course, they all ways contain full accounts of knife and-fork teas held at the Fotheringby- cum- -Slocum Primitive Methodist New Connection Mission Room, with com plete list of the makers Miss Jones, Master T. Jones, the Misses P. l.. and K. Smyths, etc, and how the guest heartily partook of the good fare kindly provided by Mir. and Mrs. Knight, etc. A local paper, however, which happened to see the other day, surpassed itself in it's News from Our Village" I suppress the name of the village but cannot withhold the nature of the news" It ran somewhat as fol-

CALHoUN,s cIE4R SIGHT.

John c. Calhoun couldn't see very straight in some matters, but he did see With remarkable accuracy what the in- crease in power of the party machine would do It was his opinion that the struggle between parties for political ascendency, to be obtained on the basis of numerical preponderance, could not fail to deteriorate the character of that control, as, in order to insure victory it would be necessary to concentrate pow CT into fewer hands, and to rely more and more on organization, caucuses and discipline. Beside this, in order to SC cure fidelity and increased zeal, there would be. he believed, growing ten deney to convert the honors and emolu- nents of the government into a means of rewarding partisan service. This, he thought, would tend at the outset to place the control of the two parties in the hands of their own majorities, so that the control of the government would be secured, not by a majority of the people, but by a majority of the majority party, forming at best only a minority of the people, possibly not more than quarter of the whole com munity. But this process of concen- trating power would continue until the government gradually passed from the hands of a majority of a party into those of it's leaders. At this stage, he said, principles and policy would lose all influence in the elections, and cum ming, falsehood, deception, islander, fraud and gross appeals to the appe- tites of the lowest and most worthless portion of the community would take the place of sound reason and wise de- bate" Oscillations in politics would take place then, for as office and pa- tronage would be the chief objects pur- sued, and as those seeking these were more numerous than the gifts at the disposal of the successful boss, political resentment would show itself by the disappointed favoring the opposition leaders at a subsequent election.
 MT, Calhoun said this in his "Disqui- sition on Government" and MT. A. Lawrence Lowell of Boston has called attention to it in a paper entitled 'Os- ciIiations of Politics. It is a striking example of foresight

PRESIDENT DWTGHT.

The announcement that the President of Yale university intends to withdraw from the duties of his office at the end of the present academic year will be great and general surprise. It. has, of course, been understood that he was be- coming full of years, but it has not been felt that he was really old. There is no evidence now that he is, but he says he has had a conviction for many years ''that it is sirable-alike with
 reference to his own happiness in the later, less active and more restful period
 of life and as related to the highest in- terests of the institution-that person who is placed in the chief administra- tive office in large university like CUTS should not continue in that position be- vond the age of seventy" As he has just reached the age of seventy he has decided to carry out his long-held pur-
 pose. The Corporation earnestly re-
 quested the President to put off his re- lIGuleul ul4Ill tllG llIllS Ul tie pl-SSH-
 tennial celebration in 1901, but he ap- parently does not feel that it would be
 best to do so.
 The twelve years that are covered by President Dwight's term of service at
 the head of the University have been
 years of great activity, development
 and change in Yale affairs He has had
 no easy task to see clearly and judge
 wisely in the midst of the hustle, the confusion and the uncertainties, but the general feeling is that he has been clear-sighted and wise, and that the
 men are few who would have done bet ter, or even as well, in his place He has been calm, tolerant, unmindful of
 clamor, and yet always deeply con- cerned for the true and lasting interests
 of Yale. He has been wonderfully suc-
 cessful in attracting material help to the University, and he has done his
 best to uphold high moral and intel lectual standards. His retirement will
 bring to public notice long record of able, faithful and successful service. rendered in the fear of God and the love of mankind

either round or cleft, as is the rough riders hat, is offered with a plume of cocks feathers at one side, or a long fringed ostrich plume. This is the style of hat that used to be worn in the days of Charles II. by the horsewomen of the court. maybe it will be modified to suit tailor wear in modern America. Alto- gether the woman who likes a very se- were toque, or a strictly masculine walking felt is rather put to it this season. The toques are all so bulky and it's hard to find anything exclusive in a walking felt
 Now that in some localities the laws require women to remove their hats in the theater, and since public opinion is pretty strict in all cities, women have made virtue and beauty of neces- sity. Hair kept in exquisite order and dressed, if not elaborately, with great care, is the rule and very pretty rule Beautiful combs are much worn, and showing a graceful intent to abide by the spirit as well as the letter of the law the fashionable woman selects the flat curved variety, or the broad but low comb.

POPE InrrRoYrn npoN.

Touchingly loyal supporters of our new governor are busily assuring "the people" that whatever he does will surely be right, and that whatever he does in regard to Insurance Commis- sioner Betts will be more than right, If he reappoints him it will be because MT. Betts has done his work faithfully and well and because the governor can do no wrong. If he appoints some other man it will be because the other man will also do his work faithfully and we'll and because the governor can do no wrong.

the companion of Captain Cook; but
 the first really detailed account of the
 reptile was given by Dieffenbach in
 1S49, when he said: '1 had been appris-
 ed of the existence of a large lizard 1 which the natives call tuatara, or nara ra, and of which they are much afraid"
 Owing to the rarity of the tuartara
 lizard, the New Zealand government passed an act to prohibit the taking or
 staying of the reptile, but, as usual for-
 got one of the most important points
 namely, the insertion of a clause for- ! bidding the collecting of the eggs. Fortunately for the tuartara, howeV- CT, F. Henaghan, the principal keeper
 on Stephen Island, appears at present
 to be the only man who knows where
 to look for them, although it is stated
 that two German collectors have been l lately making vigorous but vain efforts l to obtain specimens of the eggs. Professor Dendy had permission
 granted him by the government to col lect both eggs and adults, and with the help of MT. Henaghan he has been so
 successful in his investigations of the life history of this interesting reptile | that many new and important facts will now be made known to the scien- tific world.
 The adult animal has spotted skin
 and a crest of separate white, fiat, sharp spines, and is possessed of three sets of teeth.
 | On Stephens Island the eggs of the lizard are found to be laid in November
 and the embroyo pass the winter in a | state of Information unknown to any | other vertebrate embroyo, and do not ! emerge from the egg until nearly thir-
 teen months have elapsed One curious l fact that has come to light is that in
 the latter stages of it's development the l skin of the young animal has strong 1 ly marked pattern of longitudinal and l transverse stripes, which disappear be- | fore matching, giving place to the spot 1 ted skin of the adult animal. | This lizard is particularly interesting,
 owing to the fact of it's being allied to
 the extinct reptiles of the Triassic Age.

THE OLDEST TYPE OF REPTILE

Little Known Up to the Present About
 the Curious Tuartara Lizard.
 For the last two years Professor Den dy of Canterbury college, New Zealand, has been minutely investigating the de- velopment of the tuatara lizard, de- clared to be the most remarkable rep tile now living in New Zealand, and a detailed account of the results of his researches has just arrived in England and will shortly be published. Although the lizard in question is said to be the oldest existing type of reptile up to the present time, little has been known of it's history. as it is very rare and shy and retiring in it's habits.
 The tuatara lizard was first mention ed in a diary kept by MT. Anderson,

Severe Millinery Scarce.

Your fashionable visitor is a bird of fine feathers in the newest calling gowns. Not only are many of these dresses elaborate, but they are so strongly marked by originality as to hint that dressmakers were striving to have no two callers dressed at all alike
 An example of this originality appears in to-day's picture. Nickle-gray satin faced cloth was the plain fabric, yoke, sleeves and the underskirt effect com ing from scarlet velvet embroidered with white dots. Chenille of different widths followed the unusual curves of the yelvet's edges, and the belt was

The bicycle is making progress in the French military system. The particu- lar form of machine recently experi- mented with was the folding bicycle. On fairly level country it was found possible to move companies of troops at the rate of about nine miles an hour, and over hilly or muddy roads at a speed of seven or eight miles. French military authorities consider the sol- dier-cyclist as superior to any form of mounted infantry or those carried in carts. One advantage in particular the cyclist has. On very bad ground the rider simply folds his machine and slings it across his back. Then, too. the cycle is much less noisy than horse.

He has since, he tells me, had heavy correspondence on the subject, and expects to see some packing houses established which shall cure for the British market alone"

The Supreme court of Missouri holds that language under certain circum- stances justifies homicide. It says: ssWords do amount to a provocation in law, that is, a reasonable provoca- ton. to be submitted to the determina- tion of the jury and if found by them to exist, then the crime is lowered to the grade of manslaughter. The case was one where a father protested to the man who had outraged the daugh- ter under his own roof, and replied to the protest: 'Ill do as I - please about it, you - -" The court continues: '"This insolent and defiant reply amounted to an affirmation of Hadley's guilt.
