into warning factions for conscience sake Baptists
pursued Methodsts with reproaches and Episcopal

they all united in denunciation the wickedness of
the papacy. Now there is a strong tendency in Pro-
testantism to get together, for differences which
provoked bitter controversy now indifferent
ly regarded 1t is significant, too, that the Metho
dsts have just adopted at Ashbury park ritual
istic form OF worship which once would have been
rejected by them with loathng "Romish" de-
vice, and Methodist minister auds the pope before
an approving congregation "a leader of the great
army Of the Lords hosts" And as the New York
Herald contends the election of French Ameri-

THOSE TWO AuTocRATIc DIcTAToRs.

The Empress Tsi An of China and the Gear Of
Russia are holding down than their shares re-

beings and the Car his upon than hundred
million more There is hope sign that An
viii ever realize that the twentieth century differs
from the first or that progress is either possible
desirable The man of her realm who dares talk
of reform is promptly promoted to the beyond. Be-
tween this yellow giantess and the farhaired ruler
of the north there seems to be a thorough under
standing if not sympathy. But the Car, however
while he rules automatically appreciates the fact
that he is answerabe to judgments and opinions of
the rest of the world Only quite recently has the
court Of jubic opinion cited him to answer This is
not an age of murder for opinions sake nor is
It. century in which any ruler may resort to in
human modes of torture for merely political or re-
ligious conviction. So the Gar has descended to
assure the world that he does not endorse the muir
der of Jews and that he will punish his subjects
who were guilty of the outrage And now further
telegram from ST Petersburg says that the Car has
abolished the harshest treatment of the barbarc pun
ishments of former times, namely castigation with
cudgels and catonne tails, claiming to the and
shaving the head, which were still inflicted for GER
tain oenses of persons exiled to penal settlements
or to the mines Castigation with nine tails.
and even with cudgels not infrequently ended in
death and was one of the harshest forms Of the
death penalty, being death by torture. Only the
most hardened prison administrators could stand
the terrible sight of the death of human beings under
the measured blows of the cato'nine tails. The
cudgel and "cat" are replaced in the new statute,
says the paper, by the prolongatior of the term
by solitary confinement up to 100 days, with bread
and water, except every third day, when hot food
will be served at one meal The abolition of the cud
gel and of the "cat" does not, however, mean the
prohibition of corporal punishment altogether. The
revised statute of June Is prescrbes chastisement
with birch rods up 100 blows for slight offenses
and misdemeanors" according to the authority,
and the matter left entirely to the discretion Of
the prison authorities or of the local governors.

teachers courses of study and its allaround machn
cry will soon be up against public conviction. There
numerous proofs that they falling below the
demand or rather failing to meet expectations. A
writer in the "Woman's Tribunal" of Washington
City. asserts that professor of the University of
Chicago in charge Of the Dewey Experimental School
maintained by the university some time ago related
before large audience of educators and parents the
dren of the age of from four to twelve years, on a
certain subject; the object being to determine the
childs power to observe carefully and describe ac
curately. The answers were to be given partly in
writing, partly orally. and partly by drawing The
result demonstrated that the ability Of the child to
observe TO report in his own language, and even to

DR.. Fillppow, a Russian who edited scientific re-

editor of a Moscow paper letter stating that for
years he had been engaged in trying to discover
some substance power that should make war total

stance by which it would be possible to control the
working of explosion distance of many thous-

A GEM FROM EMERSON.

Revere the Maker; fetch thine eye
Up to his style, and manners of the sky
Not of adamant and gold
Built he heaven stark and cold
No, but a nest of bending reeds,
Flowering grass and scented weeds:
Or like a travellers fleeing tent,
Or bow above the tempest bent;
Built of tears and sacred flames,
And virtue reaching to its aims:
Built of furtherance and pursuing,
Not of spent deeds, but of doing.
Silent rushes the swift Lord
Through ruined systems still restored,
BroadsOwing, bleak and void TO bless,
Plants with worlds the wilderness;
Waters with tears of ancient sorrow
Apples of Eden. ripe tomorrow.
