Order to Remove Crosses Causes
Trouble at Buda Pest.

Buda Pest, March 1s.-Serious disturb
ances have occurred here between the
university officials and the students in
consequence of orders issued by the min
crosses from the lecture rooms of the

crosses to the walls. The officials COM

The matter Will be discussed in Parlia-

BARRYMORE and MOdjeska.

Maurice Barrymore earned reputa-
ton as wit and really deserved it.
His style could be less successfully
transferred to the stage. as his efforts
at comic writing showed. but in its
spontaneous phases its effect always
told. One of the stories told was about
his experiences with Nine. Modjeska.
with whom he acted for several years.
He had been as careless as he often
was on the stage. and Nine. Modjeska.
with all the conscientiousness Of a
great artist. protested that he had no
right to take his calling so lightly and
that If he did not owe it to his reputa-
ton to do his best he at least owed it to
her. because she had dore so much in
his behalf and had put him before the
public in dignified and serious line of
parts.
"Why, madam" he said. at is not
you who brought me before the public
and made me known. People had
heard of me all over the United States
when they thought that Modieska was
only the name of q tooth wash"

In the fore part of August, 1912, a
party Of hunters found in mountain
GUS region now known as Rabun coun-
ty, Ga, being nearly eight feet high
covered with blush hair and having
human face adorned with immense
ears resembling those of an ass. The
creature was stone deaf and on that
account seemed wholly unconscious Of
the approach Of the men. This mon
ster seems, from old accounts. to have
been seen upon several occasions dur
ing the next four years.
In 1916 number Of Adventures
from Virginia, most of them surveyors
working up the UNEMPLOYED portions Of
Georgia and the CarOlinas, formed
themselves into party for the express
purpose of capturing the uncanny be-
ing if possible. They secured the hills
and valleys for several days and at last
returned unsuccessful to the starting
point.
The many tales told of this extraordi-
nary being seem to have created quite
stir all along the Atlantic coast. A
printed circular issued by a land COM
pany in 1915 says. THE climate of
Georgia Is exceedingly mild. the soil
productive. and the danger of attack
from uncouth beasts which are repre-
scented as being half beast and half
man are fairy tales not worthy of con-
sideratiOn."

A Crushed LAWYER.

Some time ago a well known San
Francisco attorney. who prides himself
apon his handling of Chinese witnesses.
was defending a railway damage case.
Instead Of following the usual ques-
items as to name. residence. if the ma
ture of an oath We're understood, etc,
he began: "W hat is your name" "Kee
Lung" You live in San Francisco?'
"Yes." "You Sable God" "Mr. At

ply say that Thursday evening next
shall address the State Ministerial as
ISOLATION on the subject of the Divinity
of Christ and shall be pleased to have

laughter swept over the courtroom at
this clever rally. and it was some min
utes. much to the discontinue of the
lawyer for the defense. before order
was restored and the examination pro-
reeded upon ordinary lines.-Argonaut.

fines it as "a kind of seep produced
by animal magnetism, but is this
full and complete definition OF the
science. II science it may be called?
Many people possess this hypnotic
power and to much greater degree
than we may be able to realize before
giving the subject much thought. In
general it is a subject to which the
most OF US pay slight heed, but when
its power is demonstrated to us, as it
is every now and then, it is we'll for
US to give more than passing thought
to the fullness and extent OF this
power. The skilled hypnotist gains
absolute control OF his subject, and
when we pause ro,consider what this
means, a control so absolute that
whatever the one in control may de.
sire, the subject has no volition but
TO obey causes one to shudder at the
awfllness Of that power That pow
er once gained, the posse ssor retains
as long as he may desire. When we
arouse to full realization of what this
power may mean in the hands Of I'm.
scrupulous persons and with what
disastrous results to many an inno-
cent victim, we begin to feel that
some restraint might we'll be imposed
upon its practice and demonstration
before the public. The skilled physi-
clan who could bring this power to
bear upon the suffering one to whom
he is called possibly might find 1t Of
value many times. but the travelling
gentry, who are here today, tomor-

haps best that they receive as little
attention and encouragement as pos

Dosing an Elephanr,

A difficult operation was performed
the other day at the geological gardens
1t Hanover. An elephant was suffer-
Ing great pain from growth on the
lower part Of one of its hind feet. and
It was deemed necessary to cut this
malformation away. In order to rem
der the animal insensible a dose of 600
grains of morphia in six bottles Of rum
was administered. This dose took
about an hour before any visible effect
was produced. The elephant then fell
Iver in kind of sleep. and the opera
ton was successfully carried out with
Dut any further ado. The operation
listed in all three days.-London Globe.

ri doubt II many persons realize the
fascination to be derived from winter
spent In the Bahamas" said visitor
Just returned from there the other day.
"DOwn near Nassau, for example,
there Is curious sheet of water known
as the Lake Of Fire that Is worth going
far to see. 1t is simply phosphor-
escent lake, but Its weird effects cling
to ones recollection In an uncanny
way. 1t Is about three miles from the
hotel. You drive through quaint and
narrow streets, with only here and
there lamppost shedding dim light,
and past the open doors Of huts whose
occupants seem to fill every space In
the abodes to overlooking.
1.-THE gates of the old estate Of Wa
terloo have long since disappeared, and
the house is in ruins, but you drive be-
tween the posts which still mark the
entrance down a grass grown roadway
to the edge of this wonderful pond.
The water is only a few feet deep, and
the pond is scarcely quarter of mile
long. We stepped into a rowboat by
the dim light of lantern. and in a mo-
ment, as the boat pushed off and the
oars broke the water into ripples, we
were surrounded by sea of flame. The
divers who swan about seemed literal
ly merged in blue smoke, for the effect
of this phosphOrescence is more like
smoke than water. 1t reminds one of
the butterfly dance seen on the stage.
The form of the diver is surrounded by
q luminous glow, and the fishes take
fright and dart away like little flames
into the dark and quiet waters. 1t is q
beautiful sight."-New York Sun.

BARRE, W., MAY IA, 1901
NOT A PROBLEM.

The race question in the South has
been, and now is considered one Of the
great problems with which the goth
century has to deal. The Chicago
Inter Ocean takes q somewhat diff
ferent view OF the question; and in an
article under the heading IA Task,
Not A Problem" has the following:
"The Rev. DR.. E. W. Donald Of
Trinity church, Boston, went to Tus-
keegee, Ala, to deliver an address at
the dedication of Dorothy hall, Tus.
kegee institute. The new structure
to be devoted to the training of negro
girls in dressmaking, millinery, and
home making and management, in
creases the number of buildings on
the institute grounds to forty, all
given to the practical education and
industrial training Of men and wo-
men.
DR.. Donald declared "the future Of
the negro is not so much problem to
be solved as task to be performed, !"
and claimed that Tuskegee, in send
ing out men and women equipped for
the mastery OF their own careers, is
making "a grand and substantial con.
tribution to the execution of that
task" This was said in defense of
Booker T. Washington's theory that
it is more desirable to send into active
life men and women who can do things
who are intelligent, self-controlled,
truthful, and industrious, than to
maintain theoretical rights. 1t was
said also as a protest against the in.
clination Of the colored, as we'll as the
white, people to flock to the cities.
The argument urging young people
to stay on the farm has been made by
thousands and has been ineffective.
But DR.. Donald is persuasive rather
than argumentative. He insists that
in bis country the farmer is the CON-
ing man. 1.-THE rich, The says, "are al.
ready weary Of the city and have fall
len in love with country ;also many
who are not rich."
This is true, and DR.. Donald very
adroitly utilities the fact in urging the
colored people to take advantage Of
the natural opportunities for an agri-
cultural life so numerous and promis-
ing in the South. He believes that
when we recover from that malig-
nant disease that is drawing men and
women from the country. where there
is always work because there is soil,
to the city, where there is work for
only so per cent. of the inhabitants,
we shall revert to the land as the sole
divine guaranty of subsistence y
The picture of the farmer as the
coming man, who, when he cannot sell
his crop can eat it and live, presented
in contrast with the promiscuousness
of tenement house in the city, ought
to appeal strongly to a people ambiti-
Gus to be more than walters, janitors,
bell. boys and laborers. The men of
Tuskegee are house builders, carpen-
tiers, blacksmlths, business men, far
mers, doctors and lawyers, and the
women are housekeepers and home
makers and teachers, and in their
presence DR.. Donald was moved to
say: "We are ready to believe almost
anything about the future Of your
race"
