Autocracy and Art.
N tie Philadelphia Ledger

From tie philadelphia LeCser
In no other line of intellectual activity
not even in the art of fiction which it has
profoundly infuenced-has the Russian
temperament impressed itself more strongly
or widely on the modern world than it has
in music 1t may be said that the one fresh
music in our time has come from the young
Russians, and among the living composers
of the school the best known now are Rim
sky-Korsakoff, Liadoff and Glazounoff, all
professors in the Conservatory of st. Pc
tersburg and all conductors of the Russian
symphony concerts.
Rimsky-Korsakoff. who originally a
naval officer. but early devoted himself to
music and was one of the associates OF
Borodine and Cesar Cui In the national
movement, is now the foremost figure in the
whole group, and since Tschaikovsky' s
death his name has been the most widely
known abroad. Recently, 1t appears, he has
expressed opinions upon the political con-
ditions of Russia distasteful to the organi-
zation and he has accordingly been dis
missed from his professorship. His ASSOC
ciates. including Glazounoff and Liadoff,
have promptly resigned in sympathy.
Considering that of the two Russian
writer's most conspicuous In contemporary
literature one Is officially outiawed. though
left In tolerated secllsion, and the other Is
imprisoned on the charge of treason. the at
titude of the government toward the must
cal artists can cause no surprise. All edu-
cation In Russia being government affair,
professors are expected to Ego along with
the organization. just as they would be In
Philadelphia, and the greater any mans
reputation, the more Important 1t II to make

From the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
MEN have curiously different habits in

man. land the methods of men In this re-
spect is not less interesting than their taste
Some men will read one kind or literature
and some another. Some like fiction.
Others like philosophy, while still others,
who could not write the silly rhyming twad-
die of the beginners book, take poetry. But
of greater interest to me Is the attitude, II
I may say 1t. of the reader toward his book.
Many lawyers claim 20 get the best results
from reading while they stand, fact
largely due, no doubt, to courtroom habit
There are other persons who cannot read
with any degree of satisfaction or success
unless they have retired for the night. They

WHAT IS MENINGITIsp
Pathological History-Various Forms
and Types-The Symptoms.

From the Boston Iranscript.
Meningitis is the name given to infiam-
nation of the meninges. or membranes
which wrap the brain and spinal cord
When the Inflammation Is confined to the
membranes of the brain 1t is spoken of as
cerebral meningitis: when it involves both
the brain and spinal cord 1t Is called cere-
bro-spinal meningitis, and the epidemic
type carries this name. All types Of menin-
gilis however involve not OILY the brain,
but, to some extent, the spinal cord, and
the name cerebro-spinal is. therefore, not
an extremely valuable means OF distinguish
ing the epidemic form from others. Our
old high school physiologies, as most of
us remember, told of three membranes, the
tlura mater, which is the lOnyest ami cutter
ulost; the archnoid and the piamater. which
lies close to the brain surface. Nowadays,
the latter two are considered as one mem
brane spoken of as the pia. Or pia-arach-
mold. It's structure is In point here. Il has
but Joined by loose connective tissue. 1t
contains various connecting lymph spaces
by which it is joined with zoe general lynn
pathic system of the body. and 1t carries
the blood vessels which supply the brain.
The outer surface Is bathed by the cerebro-
spinal fluid. The severe niin. headache.
that is one of the most prominent symp-
toms OF meningitis, comes from the fact
that Inflammation produces an excess or
fluid which fills all the lymph spaces and
exerts pressure on the brain and nerve

tuberculosis bacillus. probably through the
blood or lymph streams. Next common Is
meningitis produced by one or more of the
forming bacteria. This In most in
stances is a result of suppurativc disease
of the inner ear, the bacteria working along
the auditory nerve until they reach the
brain and infect the meninges; an infection
may extend to the brain In Similar fashion
from the eye-socket The reverse process
is often seen in cases of recoveries from
mningitis, which are apt to be followed
by ear and eye trouble of much serious
ness. In such cases, the disease, attacking
the BARN and nerves, works along to the
eye and ear, and the patient Is sometimes,
in consequence, made deaf and blfud. Deaf
mutism sometimes results. along with blind
ness Another form of meningitis is due 20
migration of the germ of pneumonia. and il
is not very uncommon with that disease.
Other germs, like those of typnus, typhoid.
anthrax and influenza. sometimes cause
meningitis in connection with the presence
of one of those diseases. All these forms
of meningitis are known as secondary MEM
nights, /. e.. they are transplanting OF
disease already far advanced in some other
part of the body, to the meninges Of the

cia,.ed with infectious diseases. they can
not properly be called Infectious In them

River Postman.

From the New lOrw Herald
1t is probable that London has the dis
tinctiOn of being the only port where the
ships lying at anchor are privileged to have
their letters delivered TO them by river
postmen. It being customary at other ports
for sailors to apply personally for their let
tiers unless the ship is In dock. The Thames
is divided into two postal districts. each I'M
der the control of river postman. who de-
NVers letters and Ircels every morning In
a craft which resembles a fisher boat more
than anything else. these districts the
first extends from the custom house to
Iimehouse. and the second from Limehouse
TO Blackwell The river postmen start on
their rounds punctually at 8 O'Clock every
morning, and. needless to say, there is only
one delivery a day. The mail bag may in
Clude as many as five hundred letters but
this number is largely increased about
Christmas time. AS he glides from ship to
ship the postman calls out: "Ahoy therer'
and hands up the letters attached to a boat
hook 10 the waiting crew. 1t only takes
from four to five hours to deliver the mail
so that the poStman does not waste much
time. In foggy weather however. il takes
considerably longer owing to the difficulties
OF finding the various ships. and of steering
between the large vessels al they lie at
anchor.

A Precocious Young Missourian.
From the Kansas City Journal.

The Judge of one of the Missouri county
courts went to his home the other after
noon, and becoming acquainted with some
fragrant act of his seven-year-old son sum
moned the lad before him. Now, SIR, lay
of your coat he said sternly. Il am
going to give you a whipping that you will
remember as long as you live" IF 1t
please your honor" said the boy. I'VE de-
sire to ask stay of the proceedings in
this case until we can prepare and file a
change of venue to mothers court. Our
application will be based on the belief that
this court has formed an opinion regarding
the guilt Of the defendant. which cannot
be shaken by evidence. and is therefore not
competent to try the case" Stay was
granted and the boy allowed % cents attor-
ney fee.

Gather single blade of grass, and ex-
anime for a moment quietly its narrow.
sword-shaped strip of futed green. Think
of 1t well, and judge whether. of all. the
gorgeous flowers that beam in summer air.
and of all strong and gocdiy trees, pleas
ant to the eyes good for food, there be
any by God more highly graced by man
more deeply loved. than that narrow point
of feeble green. Consider what We owe to
the meadow grass to the covering of the
ground by that glorious ssnamei. by the
companies of those soft and countless and
peaceful spears.

Miss Florence Repult.

The death angle visited III communi-
ty again this week and took from US
our DEAF friend, Miss Florence Repult.
1t was so hard to give her up, but God
knows best and sent an angle to bring,
her home.
She joined the Presbyterian church In
1901, and has lived a devoted christian
until her death. She was sick eight
weeks to the day she died. While on
earth she filed the mission that God
gave her TO perform, and the true mem
ory Of her perfect life, Will always re-
main with those who loved her. The
sweet and beautiful spirit has gone
home to heaven now to glorify the God
who gave it. And to draw h%eavenward
those whose hearts are torn and bleelng
to that eternal home, where no death
can never come and where no parting
pains shall ever be felt. This dear girl
is safe in the arms of Jesus and can
never suffer again, but can always wear
that beautiful smile that fingered on her
face after she was dressed for the tomb.
May the God of all grace keep the
Borrowings ones in the way thatleads to
everlasting life and brings them at last
to lilat eternal home where their loved
ones have one But mourn not for
her for it is in vain to cali her to your
sight again.
