In the series on "Great Religions of
the World" Sir Lepel Griffin contri-
butes to the February number of the
North American Review an article on
sSikhism and the Sikhs." Sikhism, as
separate religious system, is the re-
suit of a revolt against Brahmanism,
similar to that of professionalism against
the church of Rome, and it is note
worthy coincident that Luther and
Nanak, the leaders in these two move
ments, were born and died within few
years of each other. Sir Lepel Griffin,
in singularly lucid manner, sets forth
the line of doctrine expounded by
Nanak and his eight immediate SIC
cessors in the office of Guru, the changes
introduced by Govind Singh, and the
practice of the Sikhs of to-day. who
show tendency to revert to Hindu
ceremonial and modes of thought. 1t
is in high terms that Sir Lepel writes of
Nanak and his teaching:
"Nanak was true prophet, and ac-
complished wolthily an exalted mission.
His system, like all systems, had many
imperfectlons; and chief of them were
those which equally belonged to Calvin
ism, in the substitution OF one tyranny
for another, and the overshadowing of
I'll human Joy by predestined lot
which no faith or virtue could modify.
But the good far outweighed the evil.
Nanak taught the wisdom and omni-
potence of one Supreme God, and the
equality of all men, of whatever race
or creed, in His sight; purity of life,
charity, humility and temperance. He
enjoined kindness to animals, and for.
bade both female infanticide and the
burning of widows. He condemned
idolatry and asceticIsm. and preached
the wholesome doctrine that the state
of the worker and householder was the
most honorable condition, and that to
find God and serve him, it was not nee
essary to practice austerities or retire
from active life. His object, in which
he largely succeeded, was to purge
Hinduism of the dross which had gath.
cred about it; to lift it from the slough
of polytheism and vain ceremonial in
which it was checked. and to bring II
back to the firm ground and the pure
air OF Vedas."

The Wisdom Of Napoleon.


Napoleon gave this order to his Sc
cretary: During the night enter my
chamber as seldom as possible. Do
not awake me when you have
any good news to communicate; with
that there is no hurry. But when you
bring bad news, rouse me instantly, for
then thereis not moment to be lost"
In this order of the great general,
great schemer, great gambler, great ad-
venturer, great statesman, great law
maker, to his secretary there is a vaIu-
able lesson for all the generals,
schemers, gamblers, adventurers, states
men and lawmakers of the world, and
a lesson still more important for every
little human being, for every man of
business.
The feeblest of usi is reused to activity,
to initiative, by good news. We are
ready for it.
We want to be walked up to hear it,
But when bad news comes we don't
want to be walked. We pull the bed
clothes over our heads and try to shut
it out. We close our eyes and go to
sleep again. And while we -are asleep
the bad news finishes the bad
work which it had begun.
The famous old picture shows the
eastern despot climbing on his couch,
gazing out across the country. On the
ground beside him lie headless corpses
of unfortunate creatures, messengers
Of evil tidings.' These he. beheaded
as they reached him. And his day was
quickly ended.
Had Napoleon occupied the place of
that Eastern numbering potentate, you
would have found him sitting on the
edge of his Oriental bed, with his bare
legs, dishe,eiled hair and animated
face The bearers of evil news would
have been alive andin turn interrogat-
ed with passionate interest.
With the quickness of human thought
plans to counteract the bad news
would have been formed, and the next
shifting of the scenes would have
shown Napoleon sound asleep, refus-
ing to be wakened, while the bearers
of good tidings stood cooling their heels
outside.
Study Napoleon's order to his secre-
tary. Apply it to your own lives. BE
cool in the face of good news Don't
waste your energies congratulating
yourself on it. Save your strength and
resources and vitality for bad news
Go out to meet it boldly and give orders
that will admit it to you even when
sleeping.

The Savannah morning news., 1901-04-10

New York, April 9.-The stock market
opened showing no traces OF the pro-
nounced weakness which characterized
yesterdays dealings. There were no new
developments of any importance over
night, but from the opening an active
demand for securities appeared in Lon
don, which opened for business this morn
ing. That market furnished only small,
irregular changes for American stocks in
comparison with yesterdays final level,
and the transactions for foreign account
were about equally balanced between the
buying and selling. The advances scored
in the early dealings extended points
in many cases. Notwithstanding the
doubtful status of the so-called Baltimore
and Ohio DEAL that stock advanced one
half percent. in the initial transactions
and Northern Pacific was decidedly firm
Other strong active features were the
Louisville and Nashville. Missouri Pa
cihc and Texas Pacific. The Atchisons
were comparatively active. There were
fairly active dealings in the local trac-
lions which were firmer. In the Indus
trials, American Smelling opened mate
rally above yesterdays final level, but
receded Sugar was very strong. Cop
per was again the feature among the spe-
cialties and was strong In the early
dealings.

New York, April 9.-Early cables from
Liverpool reported decline In that mar
ket Of 6-64Q7-64d on futures with spots
4-32d lower than last Thursdays close;
sales, 1000 bales. The decline in Liver
pool was about in line With expectations,
although some of our locals regarded It
unfavorabIe, We opened on a range OF
S,d5 points under last night. Fluctuations
were confined within a range of sos
lpoints--ia facts the bulk of business was
for locals and the Continent. Very little
is being. done for Southern account. The
activity of the stock market TO certain
extent is absorbing the attention of
great many Spectators, otherwise our
market might be a little more active. SEN
timent is more, inclined to look for an
advance than any decline, as demand is
gradually improving, and stocks at this
point are also being reduced. Estimated
port receipts 1900 bales, against 10000
last year. New Orleans expects to-mor-
row, $500 to $500 bales, against 1924 last
year. Houston, 1900 to 4,5OO bales, against
SO7 last year. New York spots, 5-16c.
The Savannah morning news., 1901-04-10

New Orleans, April 9-Liverpool was
Influenced unfavorably by the very bear
ish statistical figures and unsatisfactory
trade reports from Manchester. Our
market, however, only opened two points
lower, declined to 5 on the continued
heavy receipts and the easiness of spots
but subsequently rallied from 10 to IL
from the bottom on shorts covering
which was superinduced by the manip-
ulative tactics again. The semi-weekly
interior receipts are estimated at $4,000
against $500 last year, an increase of 1875
per cent, while the indicated loss in
stock points to 5000, against 5000 last
year. Referring to the Encouraging trade
outlook in Great Britain cables from Liv-
erpool state that the Board of Trade re-
turns show falling off of IS per cent. in
yarns and % per cent. in cloths, since
Jan. l, as compared with last year. Eff
forts have been repeatedly made to sus-
tain current values, notwithstanding the
legitimate features were entirely against
anv decided advance. The fictitious re-
actions place the market in a weaker po-
sition from time to time and may ulti-
mately have a tendency to force the ar
ticIe lower than would be the case under
normal conditions. Until a. parity is es-
tablished between raw cotton and manu-
featured goods, the probabilities are no
healthy and lasting improvement Will be
materialized unless the next crop later
on the season should meet with setback
