the March New England Magazine. The
author, Allen French, shows how the
influence of art has been enlisted in the
cause of good government and public
spirit in many of the historic Italian
cities, his paper dealing chiefly with the
renaissance period. AS the republics of
an older time enlisted the service of
their artists in these high public in
terests, so Mr. French is happy to see
that we are beginning to do the same
thing today, though we have yet much
to learn in this direction. The many
beautiful Illustrations of italian public
buildings, frescoes and the like add
much to the value of the article.
Outing for March opens with "The fox
terrier" a finely-illustrated article by
Ed. w. Sandys. Other notable features
of an excellent number are: Hunting
the fur SEAL" by w. G. Emery; 1.-THE
Southern Yacht Club of New Orleans''
by Lorillard D. Sampsell; "a naturalist
in Nicaragua" by ]. Crawford; "a
week with the Singhalese," by E. M.
Allaire, and "The fitting out of a yacht .
by A. ]. Kenealy.
Mr.. Davis new serial 'oThe kings
1ackal," which is to begin in Scfibner S
magazine IN April, Illustrated by Glib
son, is said to be full of the kind of
characters Mr.. Davis particularly de-
lights in, a modern banished king who
is in need of funds and organizes a dar-
ing plot to get them, young; American
girl with a great deal of money, a
modern prince with medieval notions,
an adventures, and a dashing newspa-
per correspondent who has been every
where, knows everything, and can slap
kings on the back. The scene is laid in
Tangier.
Last summer remarkable "find" in
the line Of ancient literary treasures
was made by S. Schechter of Cam
bridge University, England. He re-
moved to Cambridge a large part of the
contents of the "Genizah" attached to
the synagogue of Ezra the Scribe at
Cairo, whore manuscripts had for cen
turtles been accumul5ting. 1t needed
little skill to prophesy that careful ex-
animation Of the mTsty old documents
would reveal treasures that are price
less to the scholar cf Hebrew or Greek
literature. And SOL it has proved.
Cambridge University is preparing to
issue various publications that will set
forth these discoveries to the world.
But in advance Of such publications.
Mr.. Schechter has written for the Sun
day School Times an intensely interest
ing article in which he describes
briefly the most important manuscripts
of the Genizah that have so far been
examined. The article will appear in an
early issue of that paper.

Col. Michael C. Murphy is unique
parsonage for the presidency of the
health board of New York. He never
eats. That is to say, ulcer of the stom-
ach followed by structure of the aeso-
phagus, has made it impossible for him
to swallow food of any sort, 50 he takes
all his nourishment through silver
tube inserted in the stomach from the
outside. His diet does not vary mate
rally from that of the ordinary man,
but has to be reduced to a consomme
and pumped in Dining takes about ten
minutes, and the diner assumes a re-
clining position. AS living example
of New York surgical skill, Col Murphy
is singularly appropriate member of a
board of health.

The New York World has discovered
that there are six millionaires in the Nc
Kinley cabinet, "and of course they are
all averse to war" Well, we should
say so. Most people who have got any,
thing to lose or smash are against it, if
war can be honorably avoided. A large
proportion of this prosperous people
have got something, and they are not
going to burn it, just for larks, or to
boom yellow jingo newspapers.
Here is the Worlds appraisal of the
cabinet property: Russell A, Alger, sec
retary of war, $5,OOOOOO, lumber and
timber tracts; John Sherman, state, ST.
500, ,0OO real estate and railroads.; John
D. Long, navy, 100000, made in the law;
Cornelius n. Bliss, interior, $3.50, 900,
dry goods, officer in many financial in
stitutions; Lyman ]. Gage, treasury, ST.
100000, has been in banking 40 years;
James A. Gary, postmaster general, ST.
1000 cotton merchant and manufac-
turer
Let's see, now. John D. Long retired
from congress ten years ago. He then
said he could not afford to give any
more time to politics, and that he felt
compelled to turn to his profession in
order to support his family. If he has
made an average Of $4,000 a year, for
ten years, at the practice of law in Bos-
ton, he must be much smarter man
than the lingo press credits him with
being in the management of the navy
department. Possibly the World has
overestimated Gov. Longs wealth. Per-
haps it has set the other marks too high
also. There is Gen. Alger, for instance.
There is popular impression that he is
very rich man, but when the story
was started that he was going to as
sumo the responsibility for $1,000, ,0OO
worth of projectiles, if congress did not
appropriate the money instanter, there
was another story of at least equal au-
thenticity, saying that Gen. Alger
hadn't the money to meet any such obli-
cation, Sometimes a board OF arbitra.
ton seems needed to make the yellow
kids stories hang together.

Apropos Of the report that Spain has
bought two new warships "a report of
which there seems to be some confrma-
tion), it is said that there are eight
others which have been offered to our
government, and in regard to which de-
cision must very soon be made. These
include two battle ships, a protected
cruiser, torpedo boat and four torpe-
do boat destroyers. The prices named
are said to be very low. The ships
Spain is said to have bought were first
offered to our government, but we
were too slow to act. The natural ques-
tion after these reported purchases is,
where does Spain get the money with
which to buy? Lavish expenditures for
war ships are not consistent with a
reputation for bankruptcy.

newspaper features, some of which are
said now to adorn favorite aooks in the

the chances are that, before the next
election, somebody will attempt to draw
on them as if they were. There is an un-
deniable favor of the ''auld sod" about

YOUTHFUL DEPREDAToRs.
Boys Break Into Freight Car to Satisfy
Their Thirst for Beer.

Victor st. Martin, a 15-year-old boy,
with several companions broke into a
car loaded with barrels of beer, which
was side-traGked near Blackstone street,
Sunday afternoon. The youths had re-
moved the bung from one of the barrels
and had gathered round with a supply
of straws which were designed to con-
vey are liquor to their stomachs. Special
Officer Arthur Bassett of the Boston &
Maine railroad and j. McVulley, another
railroad man, discovered the youthful
thieves, and attempted to surround
them. The boys were warned of their
approach, however, and all escaped with
the exception of young st. Martin. The
police wagon was summoned and the
boy taken to station 1, where he was
charged with breaking and entering.

SENSATIONAL ZOLA TRIAL.
The Persecution Of Zola in the Assize Court
at Paris Continues With No New
Features.

Paris, Feb. 11.--There was the usual
crowd about the door Of the Assize court
of the Seine when the fifth day Of the
trial of M. Zola and Perrieux com
menced. NJ. Zola and Colonel Perrieux
were greeted with hostile cries when
they arrived. The court was thronged.
The proceedings opened with General
Pelleux on the stand.
General Pellieux estifed that General
Saussier, the former military governor
Of Paris, desired public trial for Major
Esterhazy, but General Billot, minister
Of war, ordered that the trial be secret.
Therefore it was impossible to contend
that Major Esterhazy was acquitted BY
order Of the authorities.
On General Pellieux leaving the stand,
M, Zola said: "There are several ways
Of serving France You, general, made
your campaigns, but will bequeath to
posterity the name of Emile Zola, and

Colonel Picquart was called and
narrated how he found the fragments of

cluded therefrom that Esterhazy was
corresponding with suspicious parties.

THE LATTIMER TRIAL.
Story Of the Killing Of Strikers by Sheriff
Martin and His Deputies Continued

Wilkesbarre, Pa, Feb. 1l.-When the
court opened this morning for the trial
of Sheriff Martin and his deputies, who
are charged with the killing of the
strikers at Lattimer, the defense intro
duced new feature in the cross-exami-
nation by endeayoring to show, that the
evidence Of witnesses was influenced by
the hope of securing damages from the
government in the event Of conviction.
Adam Lapinski was witness. He
was asked what country he came from
and replied, "Russo-Poland.
''Do you not expect, in the event of
conviction in this case, that your coun-
try will file claims for damages against
the United States?''
II don't know" replied the witness.
Ibid you not read in the newspapers
that such would be the case?"
~ can't read" said Lapinski.
Thomas Parr, the next witness told
the story of the march. to Lattimer. At
first shot, Parr said, he ran: but
was struck by bullet when he was
about SO yards from the deputies.
Mike Serochak told, how some dep
uties had followed the fleeing strikers at
Lattimer and shot at them as they ran.

FAYoRS CUBAN INDEPENDENCE.
Governor Tanner, Of Illinois, Declares That
the Time Has Arrived for Recognizing
the Independence Of Cuba.

Springfield, Ills., Feb. ll.-Governor
Tanner. in a proclamation today, re-
questing contributions to the Cuban re-
lief fund authorized by President Nc
Kinley, says:
"While approve and second the ac-
ton of the president in this regard, 1t Is
deeply impressed upon my mind that
measures of temporary relief are not q
palliative and are partially injurious.
What is demanded at our hands, in my
Judgment, is a prevention which can
be secured only by using all the influ-
ence and power of the government to
put an end to the civil war in Cuba, for
which the time seems now fully ripe, by
recognizing the Cuban republic and in
sisting that the freedom and independ-
ence Of the Cuban people shall be re-
spected throughout the world.
