Transformed.

Sir William Vernon Harcourt on one
occasion took dinner on a British man
of-war, and, storm coming up, was
persuaded by the captain, very small
man, to occupy the latter's stateroom
for the night. It had been the cap
tain's custom, each morning, to take
cup of coffee at o'clock, as an eye
opener. The steward was not mott
fed of the arrangement made for Sir
Williams comfort, and, as usual,
knocked at the captains door at 6 in
the morning. Receiving no reply, he
pushed open the door, as had been his
custom when the captain did not read
lily respond, and, as he entered, heard
Sir William snore and turn over heav-
lily in the berth. He dropped cup and
saucer with smash, and went tearing

For heavens sake, sir, come to the
captains room! He's speeches., and

not raised immeasureably above all
other men through the divine breath
they would still stand alone, seminal
and potent. One of the properties of
great poetry is that it is as seed for
new life, and the greater it is, the
more life giving properties it has. And
if the test of vitalization and stimula-
ton be applied to the sacred books
they certainly lead all other books.
The literary quality of the Bible is
not the same all through, nor is it
always so high as it is in Esaias in
Job, in Ruth, in the Apocalypse, or in
the parallels Of our Lord or in some
parts of the epistles of st. Paul, but
it is permeative and many times so
magnificent that the great Greeks
seem faded beside it, and Dante,
Calderon and Milton appear to be
mere echoes. The Bible made old
English literature-after the Anglo
Saxon Beowulf, what is there in Caed-
man, in Cynewulf and Bacda but re-
Elections of the books written by the
Jews? Theocritus and Horace are
sweet, if we speak of the WRISTS, but
who is so sweet and high as the shep-
herd king, David?

Sublime Grandeur of
Books of the Bible.

One Of the truths that modern
western civilization seems only too
willing to forget is that it owes its
highest poetry to the Jews-that there
is nothing in all literature at present
recognized by us so sublime as Esaias,
so natural, sweet and pathetic as
Ruth, so splendid as the Apocalypse,
says the Philadelphia Bulletin.
Whether these great things are in the
unequaled prose of the King James
version or in the sonorous phrases of
the Douai, their essential poetic
qualities remain and they cannot dis
appear, even under the disfgurements
Of 'The Revised Version'-even, l
may add further-the French para
phrases cannot kill them.
TIE book of Job, that epic of human
triumph over suffering, that assertion
of the will to believe and love in spite
Of all, that proof that the divine can
conquer the human heart through the
affection of the human heart, is
greater, as literature, than the books
Of Homer or Dante, Sophocles or Mil
ton. The voice of God, choosing the
poetry of the Jews, spoke through the
words of men, but were these words

Cape and Tunic Effects Modish.

Little cape effects are the novel
features of the latest walking suits. A
mixed blue and black cloth has gored
skirt hung from small yoke, and the
seams trimmed with black and white
braid. The jacket covers the hips, is
half-ftted in the back and straight in
front, where it is closed with passe-
menterie ornaments. About the Shout
ders is fiat cape trimmed with braid
and passementerie ornaments. The
sleeves are slashed on the outside of
, the arm, to show ruff of blue silk
gathered into narrow cuff of white
linen embroidered in black cotton, and
,, the turnover collar worn over soft
scarf of blue silk is to match.
In shape the tunic is probably the
most novel feature of street costumes
1t is used over skirts that trail trifle
and fits closely over them, fastening
invisible on one side, sometimes under
cluster of up and down pleats or line
Of trimming. But the tunic, in most
cases, is attached to the blouse under
an inconspicuous belt, and the whole
forms coat worn over silk or lace
underblouse.-NewY York Tribune.

wagon at the moment when Mr.. Ryan
was telling the driver where to go.
She threw herself upon her spouse
with fond entreaties and lamentations,
and Mr.. Ryan called policeman to re-
move her. The policeman asned him
who she was, and Mr.. Ryan said he
didn't know; hadn't the faintest idea;
had never seen her before.
At this Mrs. Ryan set up such a
screaming and wailing that the police
man made short work of it by taking
them both to the station, where they
were locked up on a charge of disor-
derby conduct. At the trial Mr.. Ryan
declared he had never married the
woman, and that he only occupied a
room in her flat as a lodger.
Mrs. Ryan declared that he had
married her with license. This was
found to have been a dog license.
The case was dismissed and Mr.,
Ryan did not return to his home. Mrs.
Ryan says she will carry the case to a
higher court to assure herself of her
social standing, but that she will have
nothing further to do with Ryan.

A Cure for Rheumatism.

BRIDGEPORT, Wash, Oct. 20th.-Rheu-
| natism and kidney trouble seem to
be the prevailing ailments in this ter
ritory and particularly in Douglas
county.
A remarkable and plainly sure cure
has, however, recently been intro
duced.
1t is called Dodd's Kidney Pills and
although but a short time on the
market, it has already worked many
wonderful cures.
One of the most striking of these is
that of Mr.. John Higgins, who for a
long time suffered with rheumatism
and kidney trouble. The pains of
these diseases had combined to make
his life very miserable indeed, and he
could get nothing to do him any good
till he heard of this new remedy. He
tells his experience with it in these
words:
"Dodd's Kidney Pills have done
more for my rheumatism and kidney
trouble than anything else have ever
used. There is more virtue in them
than in any other medicine, and will
always recommend them to all of my
friends highly.

The Wealth Of the Bonanza kinos

Generally speaking, the wealth of
THE Four Bonanza Kings" has been
much exaggerated. Basing their be-
lief on such movements in the stock
market as that of 1874, and the $40
dividends they once received monthly
men have asserted that one or the 9th.
er of the four was worth $4,000, 900.
But unless Mackay accumulated great
wealth after he left the Comstock
mine and the San Francisco stock mar
ket, and after his disastrous deal in
wheat, not one of them was ever in
possession of $25,O0O,OO0 But they
came up to some such figure as that
from nothing, and kept to the end a
'arge part of what they made.
and with it all, neither California
nor Nevada can point to one great in
stitution of art or education or charity

ment to the Big Four H. Hamil-

Acting as bridegroom, clergyman,
best man and witness, John Ryan, of
Chicago, married his wife with a dog
license, and then explained the differ
ence in the appearance of the docu-
ment from the document which she
had received and had framed when
she had been married to her first hus-
band in Germany, on the basis that
they do things differently in America.
On the same basis, he said, cere-
mony before a priest or justice of

wife trusted where she loved-and got
the mete of all women.

tina Schiff, as she is forced tn believe
herself now-asked Mr.. Ryan for the
money to pay the rent. Mr.. Ryan

| TRIALS OF RUSSIAN EDITORS
Not Pleasant Occupation in the
Land of the Censor.


A correspondent tells the following
story of methods of censorship il
Russia:
was at an evening party of the
local press censor in south Russian
town. About midnight I had strolled
from the music room into a cardroom
and was watching game of cards
one of the players being our host, the
censor, when the hostess approached
her husband:
Il wish, my dear, you would step
behind. There are three poor devils
there who have been waiting for you
for couple of hours. l did not wish
to disturb you sooner"
They must wait little longer re.
piled the censor, Il must finish my
rubber"
Twenty minutes later our host alb.
scented himself for a quarter of an
hour.
Meeting his wife next day asked
her who were the three poor devils"
referred to. Editors of the three
local journals" she replied.
They had waited two and half
hours in the censor's back kitchen
with their MSS. and proofsheets for
that mornings issue, without which
they could not go to press.

He was on one occasion trying s

walls of which fair was in progress.
Amid the miscellaneous herds of ami.
mails were a considerable number OF
asses, and one of them commenced to
hray loudly. At once the chief baron
stopped the advocate, who, at that mo.
ment happened to be pleading: wait

the advocate flushed. Presently, when
the court came to sum up, another ass

FAMOUS CORNERS IN GRAIN.
immense Deals Wherein Fortunes
Were Made and Lost.


In the amount of money involved,
the Letter deal of few years ago was
probably the biggest deal ever launch
ed. Young Mr.. Letter became the most
famous bull in the history of the
board. He bought every bushel of
wheat that was to be had. The price
rose to $1.S6, and he had opportunity
to sell large holdings to the actual
consumer at this figure. He was prac-
tically at war with the world. All
ewes we're upon him. He had done a
marvelously daring thing, but he want
ed his bubble to grow still bigger. I'm
fortunately for him it brust, and in
stead of realizing great fortune, he
was confronted with loss of nine or
fen million dollars That corner will
ever remain study in greed.
In direct contrast to this was the re-
cent Phillips corner in corn. This,
though not a large deal, was one of
the best engineered corners known.
Few deals have ended more dramat.
ically than the attempted wheat cor
ner of 1887, operated by Cincinnati
syndicate. The members OF this syndi-
cate reasoned that they could buy all
the available wheat; but they wrongly
estimated the supply, for thousands
of bushels poured in upon them from
every corner of the world. Their funds
became exhausted. In the middle OF
the month the deal collapsed. Panic
followed. Commission men, brokers,
bankers, and the little dealers known
as tailers--who always hover around
