KipIing as a Hymn Writer.

Surprise is expressed in certain quarters because tEe new Methodist hymn book contains poems by persons who have not been regarded as Ire ligious writers" If MT. Kipling, a "profane author" to use the technical phrase, had the inspiration to dash of "The Recessional," which almost reached the level of -he Divine Songs" of the lamented Dr. Watts, why should we not rejoice at the fact that the manuscript was rescued from the wastepaper basket into which it was cast in Q moment of too just criticism by the author Mir. Kipling is no more true to himsel in Soldiers Three" and the Jungle Books" than in the other case.
 The New York Sun directs atten- ton to the fact that the best of the

ANTIQUITY OF MAN.
California Remains Belonging to the
 Quaternary Period.

The limestone caves of Calaveras county have contributed what the ex- pert anthroplogists of the University of California pronounce to be human bones and unmistakable evidences of the occupancy of these caverns by an cient men. In two of the caves bones have been eXhumed from stalagmitic deposits, and their identity as human remains is said to be beyond question. These remains are said to be tracea- ble to the late quatenary epoch in the earth's geological history, from which it is inferred is meant the post glacial period. If so we are no nearer than we ever have been in determining whether or not the earth was inhab- fted by man before the glacial age which anthropolOgists have, so far vainly endeavored to settle.
 If the reputed discovery of the Cal averas skull was genuine. it indicated that man inhabited the earth during if not before. the glacial age. But the genuineness of the find has been chcl- lenged, and it will probably forever re- main a debatable question. although the relic is treasured in the Peabody Museum, at Cambridge, Mass. as an anthroplOgical curiosity It was as- serted that the Calaveras skull was exhumed at a considerable depth in shaft piercing the ancient gravel de- posits on Table mountain, These

Victoria Falls.

Professor Darwin did not in his ded- icatory speech last week eXaggerate in the importance of the opening of the bridge over the ZambeZi. The structure makes easily accessible one of the mos, magnificent cataracts in the world. Victoria Falls are about three times as high as those at Mag ara, though they are not as wide. So far as is now known, these two ma iestic works of nature are without a close rival. The actual descent of the Grand Falls of Labrador is 316 feet, but their width is only 200 feet. They lack the grandeur Of these other won ders.
 The bridge near Victoria Falls is significant for another reason. Though not more than 500 or 600 feet in length, it is a link in transcontinental rail- way system which, when completed, will be almost twice as long as a continuous. line from New York to San Francisco. Cape Town and Cai- TO are separated by an air line dis tance of only 4.2OO statute miles, but to connect them l. has been esti- mated that 5.644 miles of road would be required. As originally projected, the Trans Siberian road was to have a length of about 4.7OO miles, but changes in the route have shortened it materially. No, only will the Cape to Cairo line surpass in length the line in northern Asia, but it will traverse a region incomparably more produc- tive
 In time the Zambezi will be famous as the scene of an industrial devel- opment of an entirely different nature. Several years ago Sir Charles MetcaIfe proposed that electricity be generated by hydraulic means on that stream, as it is now at Niagara, and before his death Cecil Rhodes gave the under taking his enthusiastic arLI oval. The volume of water which will be avail able at Victoria Falls is said to be variable. but the average amount is believed to be larger than that at Niagara; and the head as the en- gineers call it, is three times as great.
 
 fore something like 30,OOO,OO0 horse power might be put at the disposal of man in that part of the world. AS at Niagara, the enterprise will be car ried out gradually. the capacity of the plant installed being regulated by the probable demand. Just. now the idea of transmitting electricity for mining purposes from Victoria Falls to Johan- nesburg, nearly seven hundred miles away, seems impracticabIe. In Amer ica few transmission lines exceed one hundred miles in length, and the most extensive one is barely two hundred miles long. Yet within ten years the plan may be carried into execution. If not, plenty of other uses will be found for electric power much nearer to the source; and when once a start is made a rapid increase in the ap- pIications of this agent to local in dustry may be expected.

Albert F. PilIsbury, former attorney general of Massachusetts, on visiting the birthplace of Horace Greeley, in Amherst. New Hampshire. noticed that there was no placard about the place to inform tue public of it's historical interest. Accordingly he himself tack ed on the house a card which read:
 This is the birthplace of Horace Greeley"
 While he was engaged in this task passing native paused to read the card, and turning to Mir. Pillsbury, he remarked with some acidit.r:

DEATH OF
BANKER
BECKWITH

Oberln. O. Feb &C. - Beckwith.
president Of the defunct Citizens National
link. OF this city, died at 10:45 o'clock
last night, after two days OF serious H.
ness after which the dissolution was ex-
rected at any moment Only the family
surrounded the death bed Of the banker.
Mr.. Beckwith was about s. years old.
On Dec. Il last the Federal grand jury in
Cleveland returned FIVE indictments
against Beckwith upon the charge OF vio-
isilng the National Banking laws In con
nection with the loans made 10 Mrs Cas-
sic L. Chadwick by the Citizens National
III nix OF Oberin. OF which he was presi-
cent
From the day OF his arrest Beckwiths
health failed rapidly as a result OF worry
over his troubles. He frequently declared
during his illness that he wanted TO die.
For several days prior ia his death he re-
fused to take food I'm any form. Death re-
81 lted directly from heart trouble.
The death OF President Beckwith may
materially weaken the case Of forgery
ana conspiracy to misapply bank funds
now charged against Mrs. Chadwick,
II was expected that Beckwith would be
the star witness in both the Federal and
common pleas courts.
There Is no way 10 perpetuate Beck
vith's testimony. The constitution OF the
Jnited- states says an accused person
must be confronted in court by the ac-
ousers A deposition or affidavit cannot
be used
An effort was made 70 convey the In
10 nation OF the death Of the banker 70
M s. Chadwick late last night, hut the jail
authorities refused 70 permit H. saying
tnat she would learn the news soon
enough in the morning papers. She had

banker was very ILL., and she expressed
regret for the fact.

~ the Advent in Pawtucket last evening
neiivered an able address upon corpora
tfou Misrule in Rhode Island. Excerpts
from his address are appended needing no
further comment:
II is commonly known that the legisia-
ttre OF 1892 was corrupt. This year =
United States senator was 10 be elected
nv the legislature and there is no dues-
tiou that fully as much money was used
last fall as I'm 1902 The inference is that
the present body IS no less corrupt than
YVES that OF 1902. and there is also mlch
rriyate evidence OF corruption in the
state which could not be brought into
court. | was told before election by a
member OF the present general assembly
from Pawtucket that IL would be impossi-
rIA 10 carry that city for a Republican
legislative ticket unless money were used
and bribery practiced.
Vet members Of the legislature recently
denied vehemently that they were cor
cunt and publicly said that any man max
mo such a statement was a liar. If any
wing was done I ask who was the liar?
I have known the Rev. c. W. Laidlaw
ecveral years: known him 20 be socially
and relisiously honest. II any lying was
done it was not Mr.. La1dlaN. From ap-
pearances 1t would be blind TO think that
the present legislature is any better then
that OF 1902 and Il seems TO me that the
attack of the governor and politicians
waA both cowardly and weak.
The occurrences OF the past week bring
IN the question OF whether a man has not
the right 10 speak his individual opinion
without being throttled by the great or
rams of the state, whether those organs
be newspa pers or politicians.
An attorney OF the New York, New Ha .
ven and Hartford railroad recently stated
at a clerical meeting that II was not gen
orally necessary for him TO use money in
the legislature. He said the power his
railroad had was obtained farther back
thar the legislature. for II member op-
rosed measures desired by his road that
ntu Der rarely came back to the general
assembly.

May PRESAGE
EFFORT FOR
PEACE

Washington. Feb. Sir Henry Morti-
mer Durand. the British ambassador, and
Cecil Spring Rice. secretary OF the British
embassy at ST. Petersburg made long
visit TO the White House last night. The
president and the two diplomats were to-
gether until II o'clock. and in that time
no other visitors were received.
When he was leaving the White House
the ambassador was asked II has business
with the president related TO proposals
for bringing the Russo-Japanese war TO
an end.
mo peace proposals and nothing l can
tell you" was his indefinite response.
The greatest Significance in connection
with this unusual visit OF the two Brit
ish representatives TO the president arises
from the fact that IT came coincidentally
with the exchanges that are taking place
between European governments on the
subject OF bringing about a cessation
OF hostilites in the far east.
II has been generally accepted by lead
ing diplomats that II any determined
effort 10 secure interna tional cooperation
in the interest OF peace were determined
powers, the government of the United
States would be requested by IL or them
10 make tho first open move, for the rea-
son that its motives would not be open
10 the suspicion that would certainly
arise ~ European nation took the
initiative.
This has been 40 well recognized that
when Germany desired 10 secure an ar
rangement by which Russia and Japan
would agree to respect the neutrality OF
China and confne their hostile opera
tons TO Corea and Manchuria she asked
the American government 10 father tho
suggestion. knowing that IL II came from
Berlin the chances for fits acceptance by
one or both belhgerents would be meagre
Germanys request at that time was
made personally 10 President Roosevelt
by Baron Speck Won sternburg. the Ger
man ambassador in Washington, and IL
England has any like favor 10 ask the
suggestion would naturally be COM
municated through the British am
bassador here
a London correspondent has stated on
high authority that the latest proposal
for bringing about an ending OF the war
was made by Germany TO England In
all the delicate diplomatic negotiations
concerning China. the positions OF Eng
land and the United States have been
similar In all material respects.
