Majestic Power.

A British correspondent in South At
rica tells the following highly inter-
ssting story of Dom Paul: Once, when
out on shooting expedition, G party
mad gathered around camp fire, and
the conversation turned upon litera-
ture. There We're Englishmen, Hol-
landers, Germans and Beers present,
and each Of them had much to say con-
corning celebrated writer's Of prose and
poetry, except Dom Paul. He smoked
his eternal long stom" and held his
peace. The Germans ard the English
men nearly came to the stripping Of
OK coats concerning the relative merits
OF Goethe and Shakespeare. At last
the Englishmen turned to the one ST.
lent figure Of the camp fire, saying,
Look here, now, Com Paul, which do
you think the greater writer of the
two-Goethe or Shakespeare" Never
read either Of EN-" growled the even
then celebrated man. with brutal
frankness. "Mein Gott!" calculated
the German; here is a man whom the
Beers call great. and he has not read
Goethe!" Never read Will Shake
speare?" howled the indignant Briton:
then what the deuce have you read?"
Only this" said Dom Paul, pulling a
'rayed and battered Bible from his
pocket, land have not half mastered
its glories yet l have read it day and
night for we'll nigh forty years. When
I've exhausted the Bible. III perhaps

Tell me, had either Of those men moro
wisdom to teach than l can learn from
the Book OF Proverbs? Could either
of them write such glorious lines as
King David, the ancient poet OF the
Jews. has left US In his wondrous Book
Of Psalms? Could either Shakespeare
or Goethe have written the Songs Of
Solomon"

Spectre Of the Broken

The summit Of the Broken, or
5locksberg. the highest of the Hartz
mountains in Prussian Saxony, pre-
sents singular optical phenomenon
eight or nine times during the year. 1t
is usually seen at sunrise or sunset
and consists of a gigantic projection Of
the observer, or observers, upon misty
clouds, which rise out of the valley on
the side of the mountain opposite to
the sun. Sir Walter Scott wrote Of It:
Among the various legends current In
that wild country there is favorite
one, which supposes the Hartz to be
haunted with kind of tutelar demon.
in the shape Of wild man of huge
stature, his head wreathed with oak
leaves, and his middle cinctured with
the same, wearing in his hand a pine
torn up by the roots. It is certain that
many profess to have seen such
form, traversing with huge strides. in
line parallel to their own course, the
opposite ridge of mountain when d.

ticism has only found refuge by ascrib-

Everybody says that gentle birth is
an accident, and everybody treats it

Wherever you find patience, fidelity.

If you say to a child: Il will give you
something" keep your promise; other

The happiest lot for a man, as far

Photograph In Language Study.

1t has been proposed to employ the
monograph as an aid in learning for
elgn languages. In learning a language
it Is necessary first Of all to have thu
ear trained to catch and recognize the
sounds, and the only way to accom-
plish this is to listen to the continual
repetition OF the sounds until the ear
becomes familiar with them. Manv
persons have to learn a foreign Ian
guage without any aid from a teacher
that can speak that language correctly.
and even those that are SO fortunate "a
to have a competent teacher cannot
have the teacher at hand
Now it is proposed to have phono-
graphic records OF language lessons:
then the student can have the machine
repeat the lesson over and over again
until he is perfectly familiar with 1t,

Many Germans felt pity for the
wrctched women delivered into their
hands, but the Walloons Of Pappen-
helms army were monsters OF brutal
fury. The scenes Of crime in Madge-
burg were unsurpassed in animal in
sanity by anything that has been re-
corded. When some officers Of the
league, sickcncd with these sights, APP

The soldier must have some reward
for his danger and his labOrs."
The inhabitants themselves, 1t is
said, set fire to the city in twelve diff

DEMOCRATIC HYPOCRISY.

The democrats in congress had an
excellent opportunity to show their
sincerity in the matter of opposition
to trusts and signally failed. By a
strictly party vote the republican meas
ure for a constitutional amendment
giving congress power to regulate
trusts was defeated, it requiring a two
thirds vote to pass it.
For a ear they have been giving
the people the long howl upon trusts
and now that they have an opportunity
to show where they stand their hypoc-
risy is unmasked and their false pre-
tense Is laid bare. The only measure
OF AMY value that has been given to the
people upon this question was enacted
by a republican congress and the only
measure hat ever will be given to the
people regulating trusts will come from
the republican party. 1t is the only
party that has given the people any
legislation Of value during the past
half century.
Mr.. Bryan has been declaring repeat
eddy in favor OF a constitutional amend
ment giving congress the right to leg
islate upon the question. and now his
party opposes the first effort in that
direction. The democrats in
give as a reason why did not ppo
the bill that the republicans were not
honest in the matter. Does that ex-
cuse their opposition to a good meas
ure? 1t is a good reason why they
