Sayings Of confueius.


Answering an eminent critic Mr.
Frederick Il. Seymour. the author
of ''Ye Wisdom of Confucius, "
says:
lyon will, without doubt, be in
terested to know that my little
book contains the greater part of
the sayings of Confuclus himself,
for l have omitted only a little
matter concerning ancestor wOr-
ship, which, though curious, | re-
garded as nnintereSting
''Like those of Christ. the actual
utterances Of Confucius himself
are very few, the great mass of
Confucian literature being made
up of the words Of his disciples
and the commentaries thereon by a
host of scholars. down through the
succeeding centuries, making an
immense literature Confucianism,
occupying the place of religion to
over four hundred million people,
seems to be more of a code of ethics
in which things unknown or not
understood are regarded in de-
cidedly agnostic manner, and Con
fucius and his disciples seem to
have resisted the temptation, to
which the Mohamnedan and Chris
tian prophets alike have yielded to
describe the attributes of God and
Ia localize The future rewards and
punishments, as represented by
heaven aud hell.
Certainly the teachings of Con-
fucIuS are nobly philosophical aud
altrnistIc III the highest degree,
aud will readily compare with the
best thought OF modern times in
these directions "

THE BIG CLOCK
AT GREENWICH

The clock at the Greenwich OBJ
servatory is the most important
one IN Europe, for it furnishes
correct time all over that part of
the globe. 1t is, therefore, looked
after and regulated with the great
est care and is never allowed to
get more than one-tenth of sec
ond fast or slow. OF course it is
70 correct SO small an
error by moving the hands, but an
electro magnet serves the purpose
admirably. The magnet is near the
pendulum, which it attracts the
least hit when the electrical current
is turned on. The current is SO
timed that it delays the pendulum
if the clock is fast, or qulckens
it if the clock is slow. In this way
ii few thousand swings of the
pendulum will correct the error of
tenth of second.

The chief charges made against

AGAINST SCHLEY.
Here Are the Charges and the Answer He
Makes.

In reply to these charges Admiral
Schley has made the following expla-
nation:
His temporary withdrawal from
Santiago was because Of a letter from
Admiral Sampson, dated May 20, 1893,
in which he said: "If the Spanish
ships have put into Santiago they
must come to either Havana of Glen.

of success is to hold these two points
--Cienfuegos and Havana. Until we
receive more definite information we
shall continue to hold Cienfuegos and
Havana. Hold your squadron of

combat and of decided advantage.
