 The Suns account of Hearn agrees with all the competent authorities of whom we have had knowledge during the past twenty or twenty five years, It is notorious that he was engaged In Congo reasearch, both in Cincinnati and New Orleans. It is equally cer- tain that after leaving the latter city In the early sos he continued for sev- eral years to prosecute that same re- reach in the West Indies, Finally, 1t is a mater of established history that from the West Indies he went to Ja- pan, where he set up his domestic es- tablisfment, associatlng wholly with the natives, so far as concerned his private life marrying a native, and generally immersing himself in a strictly native atmosphere. There, is no doubt, as in this country, his profess sional occupations brought him in contact with peopl of culture and high social position. There also he extorted from all who were capable of even apprONtndtely dppl dlSili6 Als dS- tonishing attainments, essential and acquired, the very warmest admira tion. But Hearn. of pure Caucasian stock himself, never made a place among his own kind, never sought or would accept Caucasian entourage, never felt at home or home or even ? never felt at home or even patient in the civilization to which 1t might have ben supposed he would lean through the influences of blood and Inherited prediction.
 Hearn was wanderer The instinct of the Bedouin was in his veins, Other Caucasians have been wanderers also, but this man leaned eyed to alien races, to occult languages and recon dite philosophies, traditions and social problems The ideals, conventions, practices and observances of his faith CTS bored him.

ONE OF THE PROBLEMS.

The War department of this country has good many problems besides those which exist in the Philippines. For instance one of the vexatious questions confronting the coast artil- lerlsts is that of preserving the ex- pensive armament at northern posts against the damaging effect of snow and ice during the winter. Experiments have been made at some of the New England posts, with a view of finding out just what will be necessary to pre- serve the guns, and at the same time keep up the standard of efficiency in the operation of the coast defenses. It is necessary to have some system which will not prevent guns from be- ing placed in action within the shortest possible time to meet any emergency which might come up in winter, and which would be, if this were not an- ticipated, an occasion for an enemy to take advantage of the known fact that at that season the defenses of the northern coast are out of commission Several methods of covering the guns with a temporary shelter have been tested and the artillery authorities will shortly determine which of these systems is the most effective.
 Speedy and complete success to those who are working on this problem. New Haven is interested She doesn't want the guns at the Lighthouse to be any less efficient than they are.

 have been made in solving the labor problem on the isthmus The matter .of securing laborers has been the hard est work the engineers and members of the commission have had to face. It was quickly learned that white men from this country could not stand tbe strain of manual labor in the tropics. Apparently the Jamaica negroes could not be made to work, Other sources of labor were tried and found unable to supply the demand. The experiment with the Chinese was almost the last resort.

The other day a man and boy went Into London shop to buy hat. Aft CT a time the man was fitted to one. Looking into the glass he said to the youngster How do look in this hat?"

There is tree on the island of Cos in the Aegean Sea, under whose branches, it is said, both St Luke and St. Paul rested. It is a huge plane tree, eighteen yards in circumference and over two thousand years old. It is surrounded by podium, or raised platform, breast high, doubtless built to support the trunk of the tree after 1t had become hollow and weak from age. The lower branches are still well preserved, and have been shored up by pieces of antique columns, over the up- per ends of which the branches have grown like caps, in consequence of the pressure of their own weight. Close by the tree is solid marble seat, which is said to be the chair of Hippo crates, the father of medicine, and it Is supposed that he taught the art of healing from that seat. He was born at Cos, 46O B. c. This gives a clew to the age of the celebrated plane tree, which must be considerably more than two thousand years old. The sultan has the tree carefully guarded against the depredations of relic hunters.

The British naval officer who oppos- es Admiral Bradford's suggestion for a craftsmanship contest between the British and American navies frankly says: I will admit that if Rear Ad- niral Bradford's statement that it is a common matter for 12-inch guns to make 10 hits out of 10 shots within a ilinimum time in the American navy is correct, and if the minimum time is the same as that allowed for similar practice in the British navy and the distance is the same, it is unnecessary to have any competition between the two countries, as we in the old coun- try have never succeeded in reaching results 50 nearly approaching perfec- tion.

While playing in the grounds of a Dutch church at Kroonstad, South Africa, two Boer children made an in- teresting discovery. With small spades they were digging a whole, and just below the surface several gold coins were unearthed. They continued to dis, gradually adding to their precious store. The youngsters soon had pile of English gold sovereigns. The sex ton then joined the search, and it was not long before treasure to the value of nearly $5,O00 in gold and silver coins was brought to light During the war the church was used as a hospital and for housing refugees, and 1t is surmised that the treasure must have been bur- led by some one who is now dead.

several of his attendants; three Recol-

fatal Iroquois mission, half dozen
ladies on the wy to join their hus-
bands. two Ursuline nuns and ten or
twelve gallants whom love of adven-
ture and the hope of lettering their
fortunes had drawn across the seas.

was thrown to him and on drawing it
up found that il was alta ched to q rope

steel hooks TO catch on to the bull

then made his way very softly to the

had slipped out from her cabin. To-
gether they made their way upon deck
once more and crept aft under the
shadow of the bulwarks. They were
almost there when De Catinat stopped
suddenly and ground out an oath
through his clinched teeth. Between
them and the rope ladder there was
standing in dim patch Of murky light
the grim figure of a Franciscan friar.
But De Catinat was not a man with

for the sun was SO low in the
heavens that the bushes in the clear
inGs threw shadows like trees.
Then suddenly as they peered in front
OF them between the trunks the green
of the sward turned to the blue OF the
water and they saw a broad river
running swiftly before them. Amos
and De Catinat had both been upon
the bosom OF the Richelieu before. and
their hearts bounded as they looked
upon it. for they knew that this was
the straight path which led them, the
one 10 home and the other TO peace and
freedom.
Across the river was the terrible Iro-
quois country. and at two points they
could see the smoke of fires curling up
into the evening air. They followed
the track which led down the eastern
bank AS they pushed onward stern
