The occupation of the Insalah oasis

protest from the sultan of Morocco, but
no one in Paris imagines that any seri-
GUS consequences will ensue. The

has often had trouble with Morocco, al
most invariably caused by the occupa-
ton Of villages in the vicinity of the
border by French troops. 81. Flamand,
chief Of the mission which took posses
sion OF lnsalah, says that the question
of the union of the Sahara to Algeria
has been advanced 80 years by the
present occupation, and that 1t will be
settled by 1908. The French govern

airy stations, one in the direction OF
Timbuctoo and the other in that Of
Insalah. for the whole thing to be oc-
complished. Protests from Frances
neighbors in Africa may be expected,

DR.. Butler met him at Calcutta. The
young missionary was at once sent
to Bjnour, a new field in northwest
India, where the Hindustani language
was learned and work opened In
1864, when the India conference was
organized, he was made a presiding
elder, and has remained in that office
almost all the time since. He has at
different times been in charge of near
ly every part of the work in both con-
ferences in northwest India In con-
nection with his work as presiding ell
der he established many primary
schools, including the Goucher schools,
with several middle schools and one
high school especially for educating
and building up the young people and
converts. He also had charge of the
publishing house at Lucknow for sew
eral years, in addition to district work.
in which time buildings were COM
p!eted and the house nearly freed
from debt. While thus actively en-
gagged in overseeing the work Of the
church DR.. Parker has ever been an
earnest soul-winner. The revival
which spread over the northwest of
India, gathering in SO many converts,
started on DR.. Parker's district and
under his direction. This was. per-

son he was removed from the care Of
a district and appointed general evan
gelist. DR. Parker is thoroughly IA
miliar with the needs and opportuni-
ties in India, and will be able to sue
cessfully carry forward whatever part
OF the field is assigned to him.

with lots of powder but only one bull

He favored annexation. President
Hayes in 1879 appointed Mr.. White min

Berlin two years. After this, giving
himself entirely to literary work and
travel, Mr.. White found in 1896 that
the government again desired his
services. President Cleveland ap-
pointed him as one of the commits

him ambassador to Germany. His
services to this government at Berlin
during the Spanish-American war were
of incalculable value. He speaks

does English.

escaped general notice. The daughter
Of one Of his servants was about to be
married, and nothing would do the
bride-elect but that the archbishop
should tie the nuptial knot. The father,
in awe of his patrons high Office, feared
to put the request, but the daughter,
with the buoyancy of youth and mex
perience, boldly, if blushingly, asked
the pope's legate to perform the cere-
mony. Her request was cheerfully ac-
coded to, but involved more than any
one supposed, since the monsignor had
10 license from the local authorities,
which is necessary in the district to
celebrate the marriage ceremony. He
was not deferred, however, from car
rying out his promise, and went to the
trouble of securing u license to marry
the daughter OF one Of his employees to
the man of her choice.
Mgr. Martinelli was educated at
Rome under Cardinal sepiacci, of the
Angelica, being ordained as a priest
March 4, 1871. He is member Of the
Order OF ST. Augustine. to which his
y y
the habit in 1868, also belonged. Short
ly before his ordination. the monsignor
lived for some years in the Augustine
community in Ireland, where he be-
came familiar with the English Ian
guage as it is spoken by our Irish cous-
ms. and his accent still suggests a
slight brogue.
In 1889 Archbishop Mnrtinelli was
elected to the post of prior general Of
his order, and in 1895 was confirmed in
this Office for 4 term Of II years. 1t is
doubtful if anyone among the Angus
tines is more popular or more widely
loved, and none surely have more po-
tent influence.
The archbishop has taken de-
terndned stand regarding politics. He
will have nothing whatever to do with
them. II shall regard my duty to the
church and to the American people as
Christians paramount to everything
else. The church will have nothing to
do with politics." said the apostolic del
egate shortly after his arrival in this
country, a determination to which he
has strictly adhered, although the
temptation, to one who could exert so
great an influence, to exceed his
chnrchly functions and lend q helping
hand where his sympathies are enlisted
must be great.

allegiance to the fundamental princi-
piles embodied in the Chicago plat

can policy of mlitarism and colonial
ism, an alliance with amy foreign
power, and opposed to territorial eX-
pansion by force of arms. and in favor
of trade expansion TO the fullest eN-
tent. We are opposed to taxation
without representation; it is our plain
duty to abolish all customs duties be-
tween ourselves and Puerto Rico: we
are opposed to the Republican princi-
pie of protection. which makes it pos
sible for combinations TO restrain
trade and eliminate competition by fos-
tering trusts and monopolies: we are
in favor the election of United States
senators by popular vote; we are in
favor of an economical administration
and an equitable adjustment of the
burden of taxation. and favor an
amendment to the constitution of the
United States comforting upon con-
gress the power to tax incomes. The
Democratic party, in convention as.
sembed at Fargo. approves and COM
