 We notice a newspaper report that Gen. eral Macarthur has been talking at Chicago banquet" about the designs of hostile cabinets upon the tranquility of this hemisphere and this country. As a rule, the gentlemen of the army and navy will not make any mistake If they refraip from publicly discussing International politics on social occasions and also on other occasions.

We owe something to the old soldier, declared Senator Oliver. This Is not
 merely a matter of sentiment Voting | for this bill is a duty not to be avoided | You have my vote and my support" Senator Johnston of Tuscaloosa recalled the futile effort al the last session of the Legislature to get a similar bill through | He was satisfied that if this bill was referred to the committee it would meet | the same fate
 When we recall what the old soldiers did for us," said Senator Johnston, it Is not in the power of the Legislature to repay the debt we owe for the sacrifices
 they made. If there is not sufficient
 money with which to properly care for the Confederate veterans l would will ingly vote for mourning debt of sl00 O0O for the purpose. We should not withhold
 from them anything that is needed for
 their comfort. The shades of my buried
 comrades would rise in reproof of our
 unworthiness were we now to refuse to
 pass this bill in behalf of those that still live"

A GIFT TO sHAKEsPEARE,s TOWN.
Replica Of Tom Nast's Immortal Light
OF Genius Given by His Widow.

The librarian of the Shakespeare Me-
mortal at Stratford-on-Avon, England, in
his report OF the more notable gifts Of the
year, refers to picture presented to the
Memorial, by Mrs. Thomas Mast. This
oil painting, by the late Thomas Mast,
entitled THE Immortal Light of Genius. y
is a replica OF picture painted by the
celebrated American cartoonist for Sir
Henry Irving. who presented it to the
institute founded by William Winter on
Staten Island. The artist, feeling that in
this picture he had put his best work. made
a replica for himself.
After Thomas Nast's death, his widow,
in pursuance Of her husbands wishes, gave
the replica to the governors Of the Shakes
peare Memorial, Stratford-on-Avon, and
it now adorns the entrance TO the theatre
there. The scene represents the room in
which Shakespeare was born. The "Im-
mortal Light OF Genius" emanates like a
nimbus from the head Of bust of Shakes
peare to which the shades OF Comedy and
Tragedy offer wreaths of laurel.
The conception is in Nast's best manner,
the rich sombre color tones heighten the
effect OF the supernatural light surround
ing the poets image, and the marvellous
treatment of the ghost like figures s mimi
table. The picture il finely executed work
OF art, worthy Of the high reputation of the
artist. Through the generosity Of Mrs.
Mast, 1t is now most appropriately placed in
the actual shrine OF Shakespearian drama,
in the poets natal town, where II will be seen
by thousands Of Shakespeaiian students,
both English and American.
