Llewellyn James Davies in the Forum.
To punish the Chinese government,
to make it the administrator Of It's own
punishment, and to render by moral
means the repetition OF outrages against
foreigners increasingly impossible this
should be the policy of the Powers in
the settlement which must end the
present disturbance. The mind Of the
Chinese nation will never be changed
by physical force. William Of Ger
many, having planted his banner on
the walls of Pekin, may race them and
destroy the whole city, and, granting
no quarter, may STAY his tens Of thous-
ands. But in 80 doing ne will but
intensity the anti-foreign bitterness.
In the elimination of this spirit lies the
only hope for satisfactory intercourse.
This hatred foreigners in China, as
in other lands, is chiefly due to ignor-
anoe. The government at Pekin has
fostered and perpetuated it by insin-
oerity in its dealings with foreign
nations. A settlement OF the claims
growing out of this war ending with
the payment OF indemnities and the
granting of additional commercial
rights 10 foreigners will leave the root
of the difficulty untouched, and but
comparatively short time will be ie-
quired to produce fresh crop Of cut
RACES. To the above must he added re-
forms in the governments besides privi-
leges and opportunities granted not
alone to foreigners but to the Chinese
people as well.
Although in form pure despotism,
the government of China is exceedingly
sensitive to public opinion. Reforms
the benefit of which will be felt by the
people, must be demanded by the gov
ernment and guaranteed to the people
by the foreign Powers. Tho American
people, acting through their govern
ment at Washington, can make such
demands and extend such privileges to
the people of China. We alone, of The
| great powers, have seized no territcry
belonging to China, Our reputation
for good faith among the Chinese is
high. The treatment of Minister WI
by the government at Washington will
have a good effect. Reforms which will
have to be forced upon the mandarin
will be welcomed by the people. AT
the Same time there arc men of expert
ence and character in the mandarinate
who would rejoice to see the changes
md who could lead in their execution.
K'ang Yu Wei and other re tormers who
escaped the destroying sword Of the
Empress Dowagei can BIZ called on to
assist the Emperor. Such programme
/ will he more esaily carried out, because
it will appear TO be simuly continue
tion of the plans OF the Emperor which
his aunt, the Dowager, so ruthlessly

HINT FOR pR0sPECTIpE BRIDES.

Philadephih Times .m.. H,
At recent wedding in Paris the
bride amazed all beholtiers by wearing
long, poluminous tulle veil tlecked
with silver. The innovation pleased
as much as it surprised, and IL is NOT
Improbable that we shall be taking our
last look at the winter brids-to. be
through mist Of tulle and silver. The
bride who introduced this novelty wa5
young woman of social Importance,
and as her frocks were made by the
great artists" of Paris, IL is possible
that the spangled veil was the lnspira-
ton of one of these faiseurs and not an
idea of the demoiselle herself. The
bridal wreath was of myrtle and Grange
blossoms. The gown was heavy ivory
white duchess satin, the trained skirt
made in groups Of tucks, the bodice
having Doero OF corded silk and APP
plications OF embroidered mousseline
de sole. The sleeves and revers were
trimmed with tho same embroidery and
the yoke was of transparent NOUS
seine.
There was one maid in attendauce.
She wore the newest OF new foIoks-
white peau de.gant cloth, which name
describes the fabric perfectly. 1t had
a small boltro strapped with cloth and
a large collar of Roman point The
sleees were rolled at the elbow, showing
undersleeves of crepe de chine. The
skirt was plain. She wore hat of
white beaver with one long white
ostrich plume and a knot of velvet
ribbon as trimming and carried a
bouquet of pink loses.

RELIGIOUS EMOTION.
Methodist Protest Against Ceeclsing Ones
Feelings.

Methodist Protest Against Cceclting One's
Feelings.
Baltimore Methodist.
The moistened eye, the bathed cheek,
the voice OF praise, the shout Of
victory, have most wonderful effect
upon others. The law OF sympathy
plays a part in the affairs of men.
There is strange and indefinable in-
fiusnce that goes from heart to heart
under such circumstances. To check
the rising tide of emotional joy in the
heart is not only a mistake Of iudg-
ment, hut not honoring to God. Pio-
priety and conventonality should not
restrain the soul on fire with the love
OF God from loyalty to the convictions
of duty. How much the Methodist
Church has suffered at this point We
cannot say. At the same time, If it ia
allowable to estimate the whole IN pro-
norton to what we have learned from
he few, then We answer, the loss has
been serious. 1t is evident to every
as a whole, arc far from being the
power they once we're. Why is this?
There certainly is some cause. We
venture to say that our revival meetings
are tame affairs when compared with
the enthusiasm and far-reaching in.
fluence of other days. For fear of ex-
travagapce the church has measurably
gone to the other extreme of Journalism.
And in exact proportions as We become
formal in our religious life We lose
power in spiritual things. The argu-
ment is advanced that education and
culture has very largely done away
with this exhibition of what refine
ment, spenking in the way OF ridiCule,
says is all excitement, and hence un4
necessary and therefore out OF place.
So the tide flows. And what are the
results? A cold church, dead in many
places. If an enthusiastic brother
should find his way there and give
vent to his feelings of praise, he would
be regarded as almost, II not alto
gerher an intruder. The cultivation of
the mind and heart are very desirable.
| In the improvement of the latter, re-
member that the emotions must not be
overlooked. They have been neglected
and the results are seen often in a cold
and formal religious life.
The decline OF outward manifestation
in the Methodist Church during the
| last generation mas been marked. Now
and then you will come in contact with
church and people who are not re-
strained by the changed conditions,
| but give vent to the feelings of joy
that stir the heart. They may be
looked upon as back number by
many, but when their devoted lives are
| united with the outward demonstration,
| then they become spiritual factor Of
great value to the church and the
world.

Rapid Advance of Count Won Buelow to

New York Herald. e4q
Count Won Buelow had had excep-
tional opportunities Of gaining
acquaintance with the inner circles OF
European Diplomacy before be was
summoned to the Berlin Foreign Ofiite
in June, 1897, by Emperor William.
His progress through the German dip
lomatic service to the rank Of Ambassa-
dor at Rome was regarded in Germany
as unusually rand, and the attainment
of tho Chancel orship, which is now re-
ported to have been intrusted TO him,
at the age Of 81, places him in posses
sion OF the highest post in the empire
at comparatively early age.
His early career was partly favored
by Bismarck influence, for the count is
the son of the Prussian Minister Of
State and Secretary Of the Empire
whom the Iron Chancellor chose to be
his colleague He had studied at
Wausanne, Leipzig aud Berlin and,
after passing through the Franco-Ger-
man War, entered the civil service. In
a seoretarial capacity he was present at
the Berlin Congress, and afterward
spent six year5 in the Paris Embassy.
Five years at st. Petersburg followed,
and after being dispatched as chief Of
% special mission to Bucharest he was
appointed amhas ador to Italy in 1893,
his repu ation for exoeptional ability
and diplomatic skill being then we'll
established. While at Rome he married
the Princess Marie Won Camporeale,
whose mother, by her second marriage,
became the wife of Signor Minghetti,
the Italian Premier, who was stanch
supporter of the alliance with Ger
many.
Count Bernhard Won Buelow has re-
| eived many marks of the Emperor Will
liam's regard during Misconduct Of the
foreign affairs Of Germany. Ii has
fallen to his lot to he the spokesman iu
the Reichstag of the Emperor as re-
CARDS the policy pursued for the ex-
pansion of Germany ip the. Pacific and
| the far East, and the successful termi-
nation of the Samoan negotiations was
rewarded ny his being made count.
He was subsequently mentioned as

care of imperial affairs, has been press

lingfurss as he has passed his Slsi
birthday. He belongs TO princely
family of Bavaria, and before the es.
Enlistment of the German Empire was
in the service of the Btvarian govern,
ment. He became a devoted follower
of Bismarck, and was appointed Am.
bassador at Paris in 1874. For severa
years he was governor of Alsace- Lor
raine. from which post he was APP

pire in succession to Count Won Ca

Down the dusk o. lonely garden aisles the

And the grape upon the trellis is bursting
with It's wine.
THERE'S bloom upon the mountain. and
there's mist upon the stream,
There's light burns low in heaven that
never ehone before;
We sing softly with low voices in slow
and waking dream,
While far off the breaker feathers in dull
music up the shore.
But by titful flow and falling there blows a
hoding breath.
A wind that steals from spaces of un-
known and nameless chill.
And IL wraps about our dreaming a darker
dream of death,
And takes the singing from the lip and
makes the music still

"The Importance of the sleeping and

in the Ladies' Home journal, giving
some suggestions as to furnishing the
house. Every bedroom should he

nearly as possible, the room should ba
kept free from anything that would
tend 10 contaminate the air. 1t shoulu
be as large as one can afford, and the
windows SO arranged that they may be
opened at the top and bottom. II pos.
sible the floor should 10 pate and the
rugs so small that they can be TAX, n
outdoors with ease for cleaning and
airing. Everything about the room
should be washable. The bed should
be light and fitted with strong ca tors,
so that it may be readily moved. the
springs ought to be firm and strong,
and the mattress of kind that will
not allow the heaviest part of the body
to sink, and so cause the sleeper to lie
in oralnped position. My own refer
ence is for cheap hard mattress nett

is better than one that is too soft.
