4 CHR SffaN GR0Cs BY.

| Not long ago we had a curious ex- hibition by minister who thought he
 knew how Christ would conduct a
 daily newspaper. This reverend and
 reverent gentleman has an inlitator in MT. A. F. Norton, of Marion, Indiana, who thinks he knows how Christ would run grocery. Tn carrying out his mo-
 tion MT. Norton allows his customers to help themselves, because he believes everybody is to be trusted. He an- nounces the profit he keeps for him. self on every article. This is only just enough to support himself and family as he believes it is un- n-Christian to do business for money making purposes. He will not sell to others what he would not give his own family to eat He will not send things home, because he thinks it encourages people to be extravagant and lazy. He pays his clerks every night, because they have earned the money. He carries no in- surance, because it encourages man to be careless about fire. He does not keep whisky, tobacco or drugs.
 We hope Brother Norton will be able to continue in business. At least one such grocery as his is needed in this

BAY STATES LION AND UNICORN
The One to Have His Crown and the
 Other His Horn Restored

The One to Have His Crown and thu
 Other His Horn Restored.
 In making copper reproductions of th
 lion and unicorn, which for many years have guarded the State street end of tn,
 old state house, few changes have
 been made to bring the images up tc true heraldic standards. The old de cayed wooden forms which were taker down when repairs were begun on the building are not the original figures They are substitutes for lion and uni corn brought over from England itself which were burned in Revolutionary times by ardent patriots. When they were replaced some years later public sentiment demanded that the most ob- ] jectionable insignia of royalty be eup- pressed Accordingly the king of beasts lost his regal crown, and the l1n- | icorn, whether by design or accident, was deprived of his pride and glory, his single twisted horn, spinging from his forehead.
 But the copper unicorn has his horn and the copper lion has his crown, trimmed with jewels and surmounted by cross. Two other changes, which would be unnoticed save by the very observing, also help restore the images to their original shape. The Hons col lar, in the wooden image a band of crosses alone, in the copper figure is made of crosses alternating with feur- de-lis and the unicorn's mane, shorn to the base of his neck by the Revolution ary artisans who made him, in the new figure spreads over his back as far as the chain which encircles his body.
 Otherwise the copper figures are per- feet counterparts of their wooden pre- decessors. Their facial expressions are identical and it has been no small task to fashion them so. The skilled work men employed have had to hammer every piece by eye. They could not shape the sheet copper directly on the old wooden figures; they were too rot ten for that. They have compared each plece, HONSNel, WItu tue CuTTeSpOlulng part on the original and hammered away until each has become perfect.
 The lion, save his crown, is complete now, and the unicorn nearly so. They will both be ready for the glider on Sat urday when the unicorn will be cov- cred with silver leaf and the lion with gold. Then these two resplendent and royal beasts will probably be placed on exhibition, that the people of Boston may see them at close quarters before they take their high stations on the old state house.-Boston Evening Tran script.

all reasonable favors. But by our mean and dictatorial policy, by our not obscure indications of a desire to ob- tain, sooner or later, the absolute con- trol and possession of the island, we are alternating them from us, just as we have alienated the Porto Ricans and the Filipinos from us by our naughty and overbearing demeanor towards those whom we ostentatiously call inferior races. Even if they are inferior, they have some natural feelings and natural rights They have right to be treated fairly and honorably; and they natur- ally feel resentful when a stronger pow CT comes upon them with musket and cannon, makes a desolation, and calls 1t peace" or effects a conquest and calls IL civilization. c.

SAMPSON THE SNOB.

Gunner Charles Morgan, who con
 ducted the practical investigation of the
 causes that led to the destruction of the Maine, and who served on Admiral Sampson's flagship, the New York, has
 a laudable ambition to rise above the
 rank he holds, and he very naturally
 thought that a recommendation from l his old commander would do him good. Therefore he addressed to Admiral
 Sampson a letter in which he said: "If,
 in your estimation I am worthy of this
 position should be most grateful to
 you if you will recommend me to the
 department" When Admiral Sampson got this letter he promptly and calmly sat down and wrote to the Navy de-
 partment. He said that Gunner Nor
 gan had good professional ability, and that he also had, which distinguishes him from other warrant officers, gen. tlemanly bearing" But he proceeded to express his earnest hope that there would be no promotions from the ranks in the navy. While it is true" he said, "that these men are selected from large class of men of very unusual ability, which distinguishes them as perhaps the professional equals of their officers as far as their technical educa- tion stands, it is also true that they are recruited from a class of men who have not had the social advantages that are a requisite for a commissioned officer"
 And so forth and so on, until Ad- miral Sampson thoroughly revealed himself as a sickening snob. He has dealt himself worse blow than the partisans of Schley could have dealt him, and he has given aid and comfort to those who have been of the opinion that Schley is better man than he is. He has also called attention to the fact that Paul Jones, Decatur, Hull, Stew art, Barron, Stockton, Porter, Farra- gut and other great naval chiefs did not enter the service by the gate of An napolis And Gunner Morgan can thank him for his good offices, uniutentional though they were.

pROSPERnU PHILIN NJ HROPY.

The Prevalent Loan Society of New York is doing good and needed work
 It was organized to protect unfortunate persons against the abuses of pawn brokers, and it has not only yielded a dividend of per cent. to the philan- thropists but after charging off certain expenses for vaults, etc, it has left an undivided surplus of S3,601.7S for the year 1900 This prosperous condition of affairs is so encouraging that the trus- tees have decided to open branch of the society at No. 119 West Forty-sec ond street in addition to continuing its main office at No. 279 Fourth avenue
 In 1900 there were SO,925 pledges with the pawnshop; 69,529 redeemed; amount of interest received, $76 S63 69; total in- terest since incorporation of society in 1894, $290, ,91S,61.

There are other interesting figures. rhere have been 415 patents issued to colored men, of which twenty-eight were granted to one inventor and twen- ty to another More than 80 per cent. of the patents issued are to citizens of the United States. Forty persons have taken out more than one hundred patents each Thomas A. Edison heads the list with 742. Francis H. Richards has 61s George Westinghouse has 239, Hiram S. Maxim has 146.

The beer of old England isn't quite as popular as it has been. Too much ar eenic has been found in it. Tn Manches- ter there have been two thousand cases of developed arsenical poisoning and at least thirty-six deaths. At first 1t was supposed that only one or two brewers had been guilty of the practice; but arsenic has been detected in the beer manufactured in fifteen towns in the midland counties. One of the pro- fessors of University College, Liverpool, has testified that a calculation of the total amount of arsenic found by the inspectors of the local government board during a period of thirty weeks showed four tons, 'enough to kill mil lions of people if divided into equal doses and administered at once"

Consul Monaghan of Chemnitz writes to the State department that the Hansa Steamship Company of Bremen pro- poses to establish line of steamers from New York to South Africa and East India, and with this end in view, nine large vessels have been ordered. The promoters of the enterprise believe that they will be able to successfully compete with the English lines running to all parts of India and Africa. The undertaking is a gigantic one and is the result of years of thought Tn ad- dition to these plans, it is proposed by the same company to establish line from New York to Mexico and the West Indies.

Ex-Governor Lee of South Dakota has notified the State authorities that he has returned the office chair recently given him by the legislature in accord ance with the custom. He says that he is opposed to giving away State proper ty, and it is an easy step from taking presents of small value, at the States expense, to a gift of large value, in- volving grave abuses and gross corrup- tion
 In 110 years the gross receipts of the United States government have amounted to $32 ,663 313, ,54S.13. Tn that time the government has lost through dishonest agents and officials approxi- mately $16,000,000. Gradually portions of these defalcations are being collected by Uncle Sam's agents. Occasionally some bondsman of a defaulter, who failed to make good his pledge, has a balance due him from the government from some contract secured or services rendered, which is withheld and applied to his former indebtedness. In this way a considerable portion of the $16- o0000O due the United States is grad ually being collected.
