PLEDGE TO H1aHwAYMAN.
Lord stanhope's "Loan" Foundation Of
London Magnate's Wealth.


London Magnate's Wealth.
From the London Evening Standard.
The fourth Earl Stanhope, when on his
homeward way late one dark night, was
held up by the most gentlemanly Of high
waymen, who preferred his request for
money or the nobleman's life in quite the
incest way. 1t happened that Lord STAN
hope had not any money with him and was
disinclined to yield the alternative.
Your watch, them" suggested the gentle
man at the opposite end OF the pistol. That
watch. the earl explained, was dear to him.
He valued 1t at hundred guineas, and
he said, lis to bring and deposit In this tree
the worth of the watch In money. and you
can call and get it tomorrow night"
Done, m lord" said the highwayman.
The law knew nothing about this arrange
ment. and the earl did as he had promised.
He placed the hundred guineas where the
highwayman might at his leisure collect it.
And there. so far as he knew, the matter
ended.
Years afterward he attended a great BAN
quet In the city, and found himself pleas
antly entertained by an extremely we'll
known man, whose signature was good for
a sum in several figures. Next day came to
Lord Stanhope letter inclosing the sum
of 100 guineas. Accompanying 1t was a
note begging his acceptance of loan
granted some years previously to the man
who now forwarded it.
That loan. said the letter had enabled
the sender to gain a new start in life, to
make a fortune and to renew acquaintance
at dinner on the previous night with his
lordship. The city magnate and the high
wayman of earlier days were one and the
same.

NEW YORK. February PROF. Jean

self as Frenchman and a Protestant. He
said he did not see clearly where any great
improvement could be madejn the sepa-
ration law.
THE church is steadily against freedom
Of thought, speech and press he said.
1.-The church understands religious liberty
as liberty for her to do as she may choose
she deems suited, to bring back those she
considers to have strayed.
IL do not think I am unfair when say
that, as one French Catholic editor ex-
pressed it. liberty is proper to Catholics
when the republican party is in power In
France and decidedly unnecessary when
the Catholic party holds the reins.
LAS I see 1t. the republicans represent
modern France. and pre-eminently modern
thought and modern life In it. But there Is
a large inconsistent following OF repub-
ucans who follow those most abominable
ethics Of David Harum: Do unto others
but do II first. But on the whole
the republican tendency in France has been
toward freedoms and liberty.
''The Concordat arranged under Nap0-
leon to regulate French religious affairs,
has not been a concerdat. but in reality q
discordat. II was not pact, nor a COM
pact, but q treaty of peace.
Neither side kept 1t, and both sides have
transgressed beyond its provisions. Any one
who is even toIerably informed about
church affairs knows that the bishops have
not kept their oaths imposed upon them BY
the Concordat.
