In Memoriam of Margaret Russell.

While the sun was setting upon the
 last golden days of September, the sweet
 young life of Margaret Russell passed into the great beyond. As the tears of many loved ones were crystalized into the rememberance of so precious a life brought to a sad close she gently raised her sweet voice in song. Jesus Lover of My Soul" and beautifully ended her short life upon earth as peacemaker, by gent ly clasping together, while upon her death bed. the hands of two unfriendly friends, softly whispering: Boys. be friends un- til death With these last words upon her lips, she closed her eyes and soon was slumbering in the arms of Jesus.
 Her illness was borne with that patience and calm submission that marked her as one of the Lords suffering children. As the end approached, she was calm and trustful. Her parting words and acts were touchngly beautiful, and will finger long In the memory of those she loved.
 The good Shepherd was with her as
 she approached the silent river. She said, q cannot see my Lord, but I have suen
 sweet sense of His presence with me.
 He seems to be sweetly lowering me in
 His dear arms Death is no terror to me,
 for 1t is so sweet to die" The Good Man
 says, "Preclous is the sight of the Lord.
 and grace is sufficient in the end. In the death of His saints, surely God command
 ed the guardian to leave gently standing a1ar the golden gates for this beautiful soul to enter into the home of the blessed.
 The memory of her beautiful life will live always, yes always, with us, as sweet heritage; also her influence will live in our hearts as a holy aroma. Her death cham Der was privileged beyond the common walks of life. She will live in the hearts of those who loved her as a sweet spirited child of God. and to live in the hearts of those we love, Is not to die.
 A tribute of respect paid by her faithful nurse VIRGINIA ROSE HARRIS.

London December 5.-American securi- ties and American trade reports have con firmed the British public that our cous- ins across the sea are 'boastfur' and tricky" Such was our old opinion. No one can say that the spectacle afforded during the past six years did not shake British faith in this old belief. Indeed, we preached Americanism. That is the best evidence that we have been hypno- tised American wheat, cotton, corn and beef filled our markets; manufactured goods of all kinds were pressed upon; securities of all kinds paid or promised big dividends. Millionaires came among us. leased our grandest homes; and trav- elled zen prince." They bought oiir pic- lures, our antiques and our best titles. The coming and going of Morgan. and Schwab and Carnegie and the Goelets and others were heralded with all the details accorded tn royalty King Ed ward and Emperor William rushed to do these men honor. Everything was the American invasion. Even our public schools. and our industrial schools were Americanized And now. The shares are down, commerce is down and the million aires-well peace be unto them. The hot air is out of the American balloon. We were hypnotized for a spell. The yank Is still the same perky cuss, boastful and tricky. And, how about Panama? Did you ever before see a nation robbed for a franchise? Our morality is dense, admit; the United States was the robber of Colombia, but we want the canal; we'll, national honesty has been Uncle Sam's boast We never boasted on slicing up our neighbors. But Uncle Sam always pretended to be such an honest fellow.
 I was talking to an American friend of mine the other day, who has passed more than half of his life in China. He tells me that only dire necessity leads a Chinese to contract away his liberty for a term of years, and that those who are secured in this fashion are usually the scum of the population-many being wanted on account Of some crime that they have committed. It Is regarded by a man as selling himself into slavery for a limited period. "The Chinese" he said
 that you would get for the Transvaal mines through contractors would be poor
 creatures, given over to every vice. and the contractor would rob them of half the pittance paid them. month or two of underground work would soon finish most of them. for they are not accus- toned to it, and my belief is that the mine-owners themselves would be as anx- ious as the rest of the residents in South Africa to pack them off. I see that the mining interests of the Transvaal talks

 "Elijah," given before an enormous audience, successfully opened the choral season at the Albert Hall, November 19, and afforded a very good opportunity of judging the merits of the new choir. For every season there is considerable in- fusion of new blood into the Royal Chor- al society. This Is especially the case on the womens side, for every year a large number of-young and happy ladies marry and leave or the older members die or resign. and are replaced by younger and fresher voices. The men who, as a rule, are enthusiasts, remain longer, and there also used to be a good deal of inter rying for the ampithearer promenade, during the lengthy intervals upon which Sir Joseph Barnaby wisely insisted, was a capital opportunity for mild Irritation, and more serious counting. Sir Frederick Bridge. though no misogynist, has stern CT art views, and the interval is now greatly shortened, to the regret of the
 
 The Albert Hall choir was never more remarkable than now for the brightness and vigor of the voices and all that seems needed to secure a practical per- feet performance Is light and shade, which will doubtless come when the sing CTS are more accustomed to each other and gain a more dramatic grip of the music. No doubt 1t is difficult to secure a reading from a large body of voiees and also there is the old trouble about full rehearsals; for so many of the male singers are engaged in business in the daytime that morning rehearsal with orchestra has been found to be lmpracti- cable, while the band can not attend In the evening. So the chorus rehearse on Monday nights, and the band and princi- pal vocalists on Wednesday mornings, the entire executive force thus not meet ing until the actual night of the per formance. Short of engaging the band for a special rehearsal on Monday night. which would be costly. and securing the chief vocalists for full rehearsal. which, owing to other engagements would often be impossible, there is no way out of the difficulty. Madame Albani was the chief singer on the above date and was in ad- mirabIe voice. MT Philip Newbury. who is just back from the Antipodes, gained enthusiastic applause for his delivery of eIf with all your hearts, while Madame I,unn and Miss Foxcroft shared the con- tralto music and Mir. Rumford was the Elijah. MT. Rumford Is an artistic sing CT, but his voice is hardly strong enough for the music, or the building.

Those Fighting Editors.

From the New York Times.
 Judge Henderson M. Somerville of the Board of United States General Apprais- CTS, whose recent controversy with Presi- dent Roosevelt on the negro question at tracted national attention, has had an ex- perience in journalism. It was before
 the war" in time and in a country where the editorial office carried with 1t the obligation to back the editorial opin- ion with the editorial pistol If necessary In those days no editor in the south could hold his chair for month unless he indorsed the duel then the prevailing species of trial by combat" The prac- tice had been sanctioned by such south ern leaders as Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay Henry S. Foster, Sam Houston, Jeff ferson Davis Sergeant s. Prentiss, and a host of others.
 Judge Somerville was a young lawyer in Memphis in 1860 when he was offered and accepted the editorship of The Ap- peal then the leading democratic organ in the state of Tennessee and which sup ported stephen A. Douglas for the Presi- dency.
 pr. Jeptha Fowlkes, a noted duelst, was editor of the Avalanche, also lead ing democratic newspaper, which was the organ of the party supporting John c. Breckinridge for president. Soon after Judge Somerviile assumed the editorial chair Dr. Fowlkes made an attact on him so bitter that a challenge was a foregone conclusion. Judge Som erville sent 1t and the preliminaries were all arranged.
 The young democratic editor spent the time intervening in practicing shooting at a target until he could hit dollar mark with unfailing accuracy. Perhaps
 news of his skill was carried to his oppo- nent At any rate a few days before the date set for the fight The Avalanche ed- itor sent word to his opponent that as he was a man of family and Judge Somer- vile unmarried he considered 1t a most unequal contest An apology was made, and the challange withdrawn, no doupt

The Mythical American Again
From London Truth.

 A continental hotel keeper recently con ided the following story to a friend of mine: Some years ago. after Queen Vic toria had been staying at a certain hotel a wealthy American called on the pro- prietor and sgnifed his desire to sleep, If it could be managed in the same apart ment, the same bed, and, if possible, the same bed-cothes as those which had held the sacred person of her majesty before they had been sent to the wash. Money was no object to him. What would 1t cost?

 But" remarked Judge Somerville, when some one asked him about the sem
 satIons of fighting editor, "I don't be-
 Iieve Fowlkes' family was any more re- lleved than I was" The Judge is known now to hold the view that dueling is a barbarous practice and that 1t prevailed so long In this
 country because our public men did not
 have the moral courage to face a vicious public sentiment by corageously refus- ing to give or accept challenges.

His Wives Make Him Tired.

From Leslie's Weekly.
 The Shah of Persia, who received some months ago from his English friend the Order of the Garter, is said to have the most tired appearance of any of the reigning sovereigns. His eyes are wear jed by the sight of every luxury During his visit to England all the statuary was moved from Marlborough House out or regard for his susceptibilities, but he showed small interest in his surroundings. One toy did excite his interest, however and this was a tiny-jeweled bird, which sang delightfully."- The shah shoots excel lently and has only sixty odd wives, as compared with the 1720 of his predeces- sor.
