IHl YlI.

The devil has rather dropped out of public notice lately and he hasn't had as much private notice as he used to have. Perhaps this state of things suits him, as 1t may enable him to do his devilish work with greater neat ness and dispatch. But he Is still mo- ticed, and he has just received what might be called very complimentary notice from preacher. The preacher is the Rev. Dr. J. B. Mack, a distin- guished minister in South Carolina. Of course Brother Mack doesn't say any, thing complimentary of the devils moral or immoral, character, but he does give him the credit of being un- commonly good looking. And he finds warrant for paying him this compli- ment in the bible. He points out that the devil was chief among the angels. and therefore must have had an angelic loveliness. According to Ezekiel, he was perfect in beauty" and St. Paul refers to him as "an angel of light" The devil. therefore, Brother Mack concludes, Is an angel, with purposes made malignant, but with all his orig inal comeliness.
 If Brother Mack has correctly de- scribed the devil. those who have seen him in his cloven-foot and forked-tail guise haven't seen him at his best, or worst. It is a pity that he doesn't al- ways look what he is. IT he did there to do with him as they do.

HARD TJMES IN WEST PR USSIA.

There Is certainly much trouble in
 Germany nowadays. A correspondent
 says that the economic crisis is mak-
 ing itself felt with peculiar severity in
 West Prussia. The government presi
 dent of that province, the former min
 ister of education, Dr. von Gossler, has
 during the last few years made great
 efforts to revive the decaying industry
 and commerce of the port of Danzig.
 With the help of capital attracted from
 western Germany he succeeded in
 founding new branches of industry,
 which gave employment to the popu-
 lation of Danzig and of the neighbor- ing districts. Not only are these young industrial enterprises now menaced by the prevailing depression, but the agri- culture of the whole province of West Prussia is suffering from the general causes of agricultural distress In Ger many, and in particular from the ef- TeCLS or a poor harvest. LIT. Voil 1OSS- Ter has convoked a conference of the leading municipal, provincial, and mili- tary authorities, together with repre- sentatives of agriculture and industry, Ito ascertain how far it will be possible by their united efforts to cope with the latent crisis in the spheres of com merce, industry, and agriculture" The objects in view will be Ito give assist ance to the necessitous; to obviate the dismissal of workmen and the stop ping of factories, and to start public works so as to furnish employment for those who can find nothing to do." The other day the Burgomaster of Danzig received deputation representing the who besought the munich pal authorities to provide work in the present emergency, and to be lenient in collecting the next instalment of the taxes

sAll signs indicate that unless the solemn pledges that have been made are as solemnly kept. attack along the whole high tariff line is likely to follow, says the Republican Boston Evening Transcript. "When protective tariff of 50 per cent. is classed as free trade, we have reached a congestion of ideas upon economic subjects that must soon produce reaction. Sane treatment of the reciprocity question would post pone such result, extend our markets and win the good will of the nations that are now planning how they can hest organize in commercial warfare against us. If we continue our attitude sol suiien indifference. then the fight will he as lively here as it will be abroad"

"The Girl From Paris.

The far-famed success. THE Girl
From Paris" which has enjoyed such
long runs in London and in New York,
will receive it's first presentation here
next Sunday.
The story of the play is woven around
the adventures of Mr.. Honeycomb, sort
of shining light in the wilderness of
his neighborhood, who. firing of his vir-
tues. journeys to Paris, where under the
name of Dingle, has had huge time"
as it were. He is sued for breach of
promise by Julie Bon Bon, and she is
awarded a verdict of 10000. Not haV-
ing the money to pay, and fearing his
Wifes wrath, he fees to Switzerland
and goes under the name of McWusky,
a Scotchman of the most ultra Ian Mac
laren type. His wife and Julie follow
him there. and thereupon many hui
morous complications arise. The story
is told in the charmingly light style of
George Dance. While the music by Ivan
Cary!l is equally pleasing. No produc-
ton of modern times has received such
marvellous approval as this production
of Edward Z. Rice, which is practically
comic opera. as produced by superb
company of some 50 people. II is the
fin de steele of music, humor, beauty
and artistic embellishments.
