The most satisfactory description of the man
TolstoT which we have ever CHANGED upon is in
the article contributed by Mr.. Andrew ID. White
70 "McClure's Magazine" The ambassador does
Justice alike to the authors nobleness and to his
follies and absurdities-he has looked upon them
with eyes as kind they are keen. The Rus
SLAMS wrongheadedness. his preposterous theo-
ries opinions and criticisms Mr. White
ascrihes 10 his mode of living-"tkat during
large a part of his life he has been wont to dis
cuss subjects with himself and not with other
men: that he has therefore come to worship
idols of his own creation, and often very unsub
stantial idols. and 10 look with misgtving and
distrust on the ideas OF others His nearest
approach TO the expression of enthusiasm con-
cerning other people. Mr.. White notes. was with
reference TO the writings of the Rev. Adm
Ballou, when he declared him the foremost
literary character that America had produced.
But despite the faults of his theories OF art
and literature they seemed TO his visitor in
many respects more profound and far reaching
than any others which have been put forth
in this century:
There is in them. toward the current cant
regarding and literature. a sound. sturdy,
hearty contempt. which braces and strengthens
one who reads or listens to him. 1t does
good to hear his quiet sarcasms against the
whole fin de steele business-the impression

of every sort: the great poets" wallowing in
Partisan mud the great musicians, with no
power melody harmony; the great
painters" mixing their colors with much
6lth the police will allow. His keen thrusts
at these incarnations of folly and obscenity in
the last quarter of the nineteenth century. and
especially at those who seek to hide the poverty
of their ideas In the obscurity of their phrases,
encourages one to think that in the next genera
tion the day of such pretenders will be done
His prophesying against "art for arts sake his
cenunciaton OF art which simply ministers TO
sensual pleasure his ridicule of art which can
only be discerned by people OF culture; his
love for art which has sense not only OF its
power but of its obligations which puts itself
at the service OF great and worthy ideas which
appeals to men men-in these he is one of the
best teachers of his time and of future times.
Yet here come in his unfortunate limitations.

The ratification of the annexation

the Hawaiian Islands made the latter
a part of the United States. as much
as the Louisiana Purchase made the
Louisiana Territory a part, or as much
as the cession of California bv Mexico
made the Pacific Coast a part, but the
matter of Porto Rico and the Philip
pines is quite different, and the United
states Supreme Court wisely held that
as to these two latter countries, the

their Congressman should finally decide
their status.-Maui News.

the only way out of the difficulty. By
