THE SINGERS.

He struck his harp sounding stroke,
And high in heaven the music rang;
The echoes in the skies awoke
Fluting the mighty note he sang.
And no one paused to greet his thought;
Life was too swift and love too sweet;
He Gang his lofty staye for naught,
The throng went by with hurrying feet.
But one who loitered by the way.
Who wore no singing robe at all,
Lifted warblc lignt and gay
As child's laugh. throstle's call.
And half beneath the breath his strain
Seemed full OF tunes all men had heard
Long. long ago. sweet falls of rain,
The love song OF the mating bird.
Tho rustling leaf the m,pmuring dove.
They heard in that inelodious sigh;
The whisper OF first trembling love
They heard and their first lullaby.
Within their hearts they sang his lay
Again. They kissed his garments hem
And threw their laurels in his way
That he might set his feet on them.

what Made Armor Obsolete.

"Firearms and Armor'' Is the theme
OF paper by Julian Corbett in Long
mans. The traditional idea that fire
arms occasioncd the disuse of armor
is shown to be unfounded. In fact,
"plate nrmor and gunpowdcr were in
troduccd in the same century" He
argues to prove: "rhe real explnna-
tion, then, Of the disappearance Of
armor is, firstly. that with the devel-
opment Of military science light cav
airy proved itself more serviceable
than heavier cavalry. and, secondly,
that light cavalry in their origin were
mounted musketeers and wore there.

days musketeers, it must be remem.

Made Him Sing Bnns.


"What man has done man can do"
is % good motto. but it needs to be in
terpretcd in the light OF common sense.
Every now and then we hear of man
who takes 1t TO mean that little per-
severance will make Newton or
Beethoven out OF the stupidest Of us.
Here is story connected with Lid
dell, the somewhat overpositivc dean
of Christ church. borrowed from Tho
Spectator:
DR.. Corfc. the organIst Of Christ
church. WAS mt this time sorely plagued
by one OF the choirmcn. whose alto
singing was miscrably bad. He came
to the dean.
"Mr. Dean, really cannot have that
man singing any longer. He spoils the
whole choir. If only he sang bass it
would not SO much matter. but such an
alto is intolcrablc"
"Very well, DR.. Corfc," 81 id the dean,
Il will deal with the matter"
So the choirman was sent for.
"Dr. Corfe complains Of your sing
ing and says lie cannot have you sing
ing alto any longer, but that 1t would
not be SO bad If you sang bass. For
the future, therefore. be good enough
to sing bass.''
But, Mr.. Dean, cannot sing bass"
rejoincd the man.
"Well." answered Liddell. ~ am no
musician. but sing bnss you must
Good morning."
And for many Il year afterward, as
can be but too well remembered, the
man sang bass till he was finally
shelyed.

PHILADELPHIA At AP|A.
MORE TROUBLE is BREWING IN
SAMOA.
Action of the German Consul Encour-
ages Mataafa's Followers-General
Council on Board the Porpoise.

WASHINGTON, March 17.-Admiral
Kautz has reported the arrival at Apia
of the cruiser Philadelphia on March
9th. He made no comment on the poll
teal situation there.
The State Department believes there
is little probability of a clash in Sa-
moa, at least not one that will involve
ton not only to American interests,
Admiral Kautz was specially charged
to maintain peace and to give protec-
ton not only to Aemican interests,
but those of Great Britain and Ger
many. and the broad instructions may
even warrant him in intervening forci-
bly, to prevent a clash between the ma
| tive factions. although our Govern
ment is loath to take any such steps
except in case of emergency.
! Commander Tilley of the Abaren-
da has come to Washington to consult
with the authorities of the Navy De-
partment prior to starting for Samoa.
He goes to open the coaling station at
Pago-Pago. which the United States
holds under special treaty with the
Samoan Government. The Abarenda
carries on this trip little over 1000
! tons of coal and about 400 tons of
steel building material. The latter is
| intended for the construction OF Il
wharf and coal sheds.
APIA (Samoa), March 10 (via Auck-
land. March 16).-Recent develop
ments prove that the German repre-
sentatives in Samoa do not intend to
act in harmony with the agents of
| England and the United States and
demonstrate that they intend to up
hold Mataafa even at the risk Of caus-
ING more boodshed
The British and American Consuls
have issued procIamations denying
the rumors in circulation to the effect
that Mataafa had been recognized and
! threatening strong action if the pro
visiunal government interfered with
the Loyaists. The German Consul re-
fused to ioin with the British and Am
erican representatives and issued a
proclamation unfolding the provision
al government and denying that there
had been any interference by the Mali
etoa party. He added to this docu-
ment an extraordinary paragraph eN-
pressing the hope that the provisional
government "would he able to encoun-
ter the danger caused anew to the
peace of the inhabitants by the Eng
lish and American proclamation.
This has put more heart into the
rebels. and therefore numbers of arm
ed warriors have gathered.
A friendly feeling is shown by the
officers and men of the American and
British navies here. The American
Admiral convened a meeting of the
Consuls. the Chief Justice and the
Captains of the various war ships, in
Guiding German, on board the flagship
and it is probable that the result will
be the presentation of an ultimatum
1t is generally thought that fighting is
likely to occur.
