TELEGRAPHED UP ONE FLIGHT.

That New York is big city, which
the stranger seldom learns very we'll,
was quite forcibly impressed upon a
certain well-known Californian a few
days ago. He comes here twice a
year, and has long since learned to
find his way about.
He was charging about in the busi-
ness district and suddenly remembered
that he wanted to telegraph to a friend
whose offices are at 1876 Broadway. The
Californian dashed into the nearest
telegraph Office, wrote out his dispatch.
and, covering it with the coin, passed
II through the wicket to the receiver.
The receiver smiled.
What's the matter?" demanded the
Californian.
Why, this is 1876 Broadway said
the receiver, and your man is UP

NOT A WOMAN Halter.

Lord Kitchener has been described
as a woman hater. This gives quite
an erroneous idea of the general who
is too great a man to harbor prejudices
which belong to smaller minds than
his. says an English writer. The truth
is. he possesses too just view Of
woman's sphere and its appropriate
limitations not to regard with all
severity those representatives OF the
sex who trangress its boundaries.
TIE present campaign in South
Africa, however, presents one aspect
which the latter sirdar regards, with
considerable disfavor. In Lord
Kitchener's eyes war is the very stern
est of business, and demands the
sternest OF business-like application.
In his opinion the multitudes Of women
who. impelled either by curiosity or
love OF excitement, or because their
men are fighting, have flocked to
South Africa in the wake Of the forces,
adds a feature to the present war and

say the least, is wholly unbusiness-like

UNHEARD HARMONIES.

AL things are wrought of melody,
Unheard, yet full of speaking spells;
Within the rock, within the tree,
A soul of music dwells.
A mute symphonic sense that thrills
The silent frame of mortal things;
Its heart beats in the ancient hills,
And in each flower sings.
To harmony all growth is SET
Each seed is but music mote
From which each plant, each violet,
Evolves its purple note.
Compact of melody, the rose
Woos, the soft wind with strain on
strain
OF crimson; and the lily blows
Its white bars to the rain.
The trees are paeans; and the grass
One long, green fugue, beneath the
sun;
Song is their life, and all shall pass,
Shall cease, when song is done.

RUINS OF BABYLON
E5s2ysss@N0sssssa94 ssaSSs

Later news received in Berlin from
the German scientists who found the
long sought east canal in Babylon,
says the bright Little Chronicle of
Chicago, shows that this is only
part of the wonderful story of the
ancient city which they have brought
back to light. Here, in this heap of
ruined temples of broken columns and
fragments of grandeur cut in stone,
was once a city which ruled the world.
TIE remains which these scientific
men have been able to locate by their
knowledge and the spades of the
workmen prove that the Bible account
of the greatness of Babylon and the
descriptions of it in ancient books
other than the Bible were not exag.
gerated.
Herodotus, the father of history,
who visited Babylon in the time of
Artaxerxes I, wrote that it was sur
rounded by a wall fifty royal ellis"
wide (eighty-four feet) and 1900 ellis"
1886 feet high, and that on the top of
this wall on each side were one-story
houses, leaving space between the
houses so broad that four chariots
could drive abreast on the wall.

GROVER CLEVELAND'S ADVICE.
His Interesting Answer to the Cues
ton, Does College Education Pay?

Ex-President Grover Cleveland con-
tributes to The Saturday Evening
Post the first magazine article he has
written since he left the white house.
1t is vigorous and remarkably force
full discussion of the question, Does a
College Education Pay? and it is of
interest not only to the thousands of
young men who are considering the
problem, but to the tens Of thousands
of parents who may have doubts. Mr.
Cleveland does not judge success
simply by money-making.
Many a college-bred man labors In
the field of usefulness without either
wealth or honors, and frequently with
but scant recognition of any kind and
yet achieves successes which, unseen
and unknown by the sordid and cynl-
cal, will bloom in the hearts and minds
of men longer than the prizes of wealth
or honors can endure" he says.
Further on is this: Parents should
never send their sons to college simply
for the purpose of educational orna-
mentation. The fact that parents have
the fate of son largely in their keep
ing should not only enlist their par
entail love and pride, but should, at the
same time, stimulate their parental
Judgment. Furthermore, they should
be constantly mindful that they have
in charge not only a son but an I'M
completed man who Is soon to become
their contribution to the manhood OF
the world. They therefore owe a dual
duty, which demands on the one hand
that the education of the son be under
taken as help to his success in life,
and on the other that this education
shall promise for the maturing man
the equipment necessary to insure his
value as an addition to civilized hui
manly. Before he leaves home to en-
ter upon his student life, his sympathy
with these purposes should be fully
aroused, and he should be impressed
with the Importance of keeping them
steadily in view. He should also take
with him to his new surroundings a
love of truth and honor, a cheerful,
manly disposition and truly democratic
inclinations. With these his collegiate
advent must be suspicious, and his flu
ture life well guarded against failure
Lacking these, his way is made inn
mensely more difficult and uncertain"

OLD AND MODERN NovELISTs.

While the average length of the
modern novel is 10000 words, the
length of Dickens principal stories is
100000 words. Now bulk, considered
as bulk, is nothing. But it is the fact
that the great novels of the world are
long. "Rabelais," Don Quixote, 1"
Robinson Crusoe," 'Tristram
Shandy," Tom JONES' Pamela"
Les Miserables,' Monte Cristo,"
these are tremendous books, and the
list could be greatly extenden Our
