ON THE CAMPUS MARTIus.


In Detroit they have Campus Martius
which is called many different things BY
persons who do not live there There Is
a soldiers monument there. and 1t IS the
resort of bootblacks and wandering fakirs-
The Free Press gives this account OF a
patent rat trap fakir who rolled an empty
flour barrel near the north front OF the
soldiers monument, and mounting the
upper head of the barrel began haranguing
crowd of shoe sinners and others that
soon gathered about him. 'Feller citi-
zens" ne shouted. I'm no stranger in
this ere town of your'n, for this isn't the
first time that I've come before you; and
often I've tramped from one end TO t'Other
of your magnificent Woodbridge Avenue.
and also over your seemingly endless
Jefferson Street; and many's the time that
I've sat in the cool shade of the wide
spreading elms and naples that flourish In
your circus park, that bears the name of
the immortal Grant. Then. again. I've
often stood amazed. wondering at the hu-
man and animal procession ever passing
and repassing across your matchless Cam
pus Marshes; and I'm now stopping on
that broad and tree-lined Mimamy Ave-
nue., over there, so that even blind man
or woman. If there is one such within
sound of my voice. can see that I'm no
stranger in this ere town of yours
At this juncture the head of the barrel
collapsed. and instantly the eloquent faklr
and his bundle of rat traps were out OF
sight in the fog OF -four that arose from
the interior of his imprOvised rostrum-
Subsequently there came very near beins
a fight between half dozen shoe sinners
each of whom clamorOusly asserted that
he had done more than all others IN
brushing the flour from the clothing OF
the fakir The dispute was finally settled
by a showing OF shoe brushes, and the
smallest kid of the lot was awarded the
prize, a suspicious-looking nickel, after
he had, unperceived. rubbed his brush
across the inside of the barrel. thereby ac-
cumulating more -four on it than any other
brush could show. The meeting then ad-
journed sine die.

New Order of Bath he has not done so in
spirit of ridicule
"Cleanness' Is the watchword of the or
ganization. and this is not meant figura-
lively, for the first rule laid down in it's
little manual is this:
ITO take sponge bath or cold water

The second rule requires that men,

cross of the order" and the third is that
this prayer shall be said each day:
Dear Lord, who Tor my sake vas
born OF pure Virgin. grant that I, Thy
servant following 5he example nf Thy
holy life. and with the aid OF the Holy
Ghost may be kept from unclean
thoughts, words or actions, for Thy
dear Names sake. Amen"

confession. requiring a member to write

him of broken vows relating to the or

Silver Cross of our Master and Clean

Abandoning the Reformation.


II is said that there are l. 1C0 clergymCn OF the
Church of England who members of the Con
fraternity of the BLESSED Sacrament, organ zsd TO
destroy the work of the reformation. They are
allies of the Church OF Rome, and in belief and
practice agree with that body (including confes-
sion to priests. Many efforts have been made TO
prevent these clergymen from continuing their
ROnish practices in the churches OF the Church
of England. but with only small success. The
bishops OF the state church are apparently in
different to the attempts to Romantic the Church
OF England. 1t is claimed that the large majority
of the membership is opposed to the efforts OF tie
Ccntrateruity and allied societies. such az the
Holy Gross and the Ritualistic Sisterhoojs. There
is unquestionsbly decided tendency among the
clergy OF the Church of England toward the Ro-
man Church. The other denominations of Girls
tians in Great Britain have formed a federation
TO oppose this sacerdotalsm and endeavor 10
Romantic the Christian people of Great Britain.
The membership CT the churches of this alliance
is now larger than that OF the Church of England
and that majority bids fair to increase stead ".
The prospect is that in few years the Episcopal
Church will cease to be the established church of
Great Britain.

feet of our war with Spain has been to
excite American commercial enterprise
IN the Old World, and we are told that

drummers are to be heard In most ho-

ings. in England, has contracted with
an American firm for water pipes, and
Liverpool is laying street car rails from

what was wanted to awaken our people

had been lying ever since Cleveland's

his old colleagues of the Bumboat and
Barnacle Bureaus. They do not mean TO
leave him until the meeting OF Congress
