A NEW CENTURY REVIVAL.
Plans I'm England and This Countr,
For n Concerted NIoverncpf

Plans I'm England and This Country
For Concerted Movements.
All OF the Free churches of England
are Joined in an effort TO open the new
century with great evangelical rcviv-
al Eight days are to be given to the
task, apart from the months Of prepa-
ration which have already begun. In
this task OF preparation the Christian
Endeavor and other lay help is brought
INTO USE The meetings will begin on
Saturday night, January being the
month selected, cover the two follow
ing Sundays and terminate on Monday
evening. The London meetings are TO
be held in advance of those I'm tho
provinces; this for local effect There
are to be six London centers-princi-
pal centers-each of which will have
many subordinate centers.
In other cities OF England the num-
Der OF principal ccnters, each with sub
ordinate ones, will number from one
TO six, according TO size, and work is
already begun to see that no city. how
ever small, Is omitted from the plan.
The date Will be about n fortnight aft
er the close of the London meetings.
Evangelists from one to ten I'm number
Will be sent TO each city, according TO
size. and pastors will help out.
There will be special services for
milkmen. for car drivers for fallen
women, newspaper boys. etc. Some of
these will be held at early hours IN the
morning, one OF them at 3 n. IN. They
Will be held at any hour those for
whom they are held can best attend.
The aim is. first. to reach people of all
grades and to provide meetings any,
where and ut any time; second, TO
converge these meetings upon central
mass meetings.
There is also movement on foot I'm
this country TO make this n year of
prayer and preparation for the incom-
ing new century. A call TO this end is
addressed to the people of the United
States and Is signed by many repre-
sentative men, including such names
as those OF the Rev. Drs. j.. III. Bar
rows, Josiah Strong. Washington Glad
den, Theodore L. Cuyler, c. I. Scofield
and Bishops Gilbert of Minnesota,
Leonard OF Ohio. Doane of Albany. An
drews OF New York. etc. The appeal
is to Christians to make the year one
or prayer, work and preparation and
education by Bible study and study of
missionary and other progressive Chris
tan work In order that q great revival
or religion may be prepared for in the
opening year OF, the new century,

An Ingeniou. Western Minister


THE righteousness of Rev. Harry A.
Handle, rector of st. james mission.
Meeker. Colo, constantly evolves en-
tertaining features for the old and
young, attracting interest to the mis-
sion," writes Stanley Stokes of "A
Minister Among the Cowboys i'm The
Ladies' Home Journal. "He is an ac-
complished artist and takes photo
graphs for everybody. An immense
seesaw, swings and other entertaining
features have been erected by him in
the rectory yard, where everybody in
the town enjoys them. The preacher
spent part Of his earnings for phono-
graph with n set of 80 rolls, which
drew big crowds to the rectory. some
coming 100 miles to see the wonderful
talking machine.
Nearly every day, when the stuge
comes i'm, Mr.. Handle changes his
working clothes and goes TO the hotel
TO acquaint himself with the strangers
arriving and invites them to the rec
tory. all of which is unusual and I'M

Is one of the ways by which so many
people in his parish, which is of great
or area than the states of Delaware
and Rhode Island combined. have be-
come acquainted with the popular lit
tie minister OF Rio Blanco,' as be Is
called"

Ancient Roman yy~iub,.

During the excavations in the Ro-
man Forum three weights OF respec-
lively 20. 30 and 100 Roman pounds
have recently been found which are
certainly from n period not later than
200 B. c. They are OF green marble.
contain handles OF bronze and have
their respective weights clearly en-
graved upon them. According TO the
director OF the excavations. Giacomo
Boni. these are the most ancient speci-
mems OF standard Roman weights
which we possess and. as they are well
preserved. will prove OF great service
to arch@ologists in reconstructing the
system OF neurology of primitive
Rome. The ancient Latin pound has
already been determined from them to
have been 325 grams.

The Kind of stove Tic w,,,.,

A gentleman from one OF the town
ships north of Somerset came to town
one day last week to buy n stove. At
one or the stores he found what he
wanted. III was standing on low
truck on which sample stoves are
moved about the store. The man
bought the stove and ordered it ship
ped TO his home. On Monday the stove
dealer received a letter from the Gus
toner In which the latter said: THE
stove you sold NE was on wheels. The
one received is not | will ship ii

THE LAW OF LOOT.
Forbidden Pm General, but Above
On Occasion

On Occasion.
On the subject OF looting much has
been heard lately I'm connection with
the sellers, first of Ticn-tsin and then
OF Picking. Strictly speaking. il is for
hidden by the rules of civilized war
fare and is punished severely in cases
OF conflicts between Christian nations.
But ii IL sanctioned or. perhaps, II
would be better to say. tolerated, In
instances where the foe is either orr
entail or African, and where 1T is con-
sidered TO add, by destruction of the
enemy's property, to the weight of the
punishment inflicted through mere de-
feat. In instances of this kind Eng
lish as well as German military regu-
lations provide that all loot belongs
by right to the crown and cannot un.
der ordinary circumstances be appro-
priated or disturbed without the con-
sent OF the sovereign.
As rule the soldiers are not worried
with restrictions as long as the looting
is done only on n small scale, and there
was hardly a soldier who returned
from the Sudan that did not bring back
with him to his relatives and friends
some spoils of war in the shape of der
wish arms and accouterments. But had
the British military authorities been
able to. discover the identity of the sol
diers who looted the royal treasury at
Mandalay and who made away with
the ruby covered crown of King The
baw they would have been sentenced
by court martial either to be shot or to
long term of Imprisonment
Had the mahdrs still carefully con-
cealed treasure been captured after
the battle of Omdurman every bit of ii
would have belonged to the crown, and
1t would have entirely depended upon
the good will of the latter whether or
not any percentage thereof were dis
tributed among the officers who had
taken part in the capture. If the mil
itary regulations had been enforced Mt
Tien-tsin and at Picking, every bit of
loot taken by British soldiers should
have been turned into a species of pool.
which, after the consent OF the sover-
eign had been obtained, might have
been distributed either In full or in
part, according to a scale approved by
the military authorities, which is based
on the relative daily pay of all ranks.
the infantry private with n shilling a
day being taken as the limit. But 1t Is
expressly understood that the distribu-
ton is not n matter of right. but alto
gethcr matter of the will and pleasure
of the sovereign. who usually receives
as her share any article of particular
artistic or intrinsic value.-Ex-Attacbe

A Fnmou. Connoscr.

NJ. de Busy, the French composer
whose musical Interpretation of Ros-
settrs blessed Damosel" was the re-
cent musical event in Paris. is very
striking In appearance, having n vast
forehead, suggestive in its intellectual
formation both Of Victor Hugo and
Beethoven. he is performer both on
the piano and the violin and when un-
usually young won the Grand Prix de
Rome for composition in spite of the
hostile predictions of all his profess
ors- His new work was a little too
preraphaeiite In sentiment to seize the
public, but the critics were much i'm
pressed. NJ. de Busy is not n Wag-
nerite. His ambition is to strike 3
