Cardinal Manning.

Concerning Manning, the Catholic
World for July has an article by Wilfrid
Wi1berforce. who writes with much charm
and feeling in protest against the gener-
ally accepted view Of the great ecclesias-
tic as a man utterly devoid of human
sympathies That there was reason
enough far the common belief the writer
admits. and he cites a number of stories
in illustration:
Soon after Manning's appointment TO
the see of Westminster, London was
amused by a mot Of Bishop Ullathorne.
He was seen to be shivering one day.
and a friend asked him if he had caught
chill. "Oh, no." replied the bishop
L have only been shaking hands with
Manning" Indeed, Manning was always
looked upon as the living type OF all that
is cold and ungenial, and lacking in sym
pathy. The Marble Arch" was his play
ful sobriquet when the archiepiscopaI bur-
den had been placed upon him. And
when he appeared in the sanctuary at
Moorfields on the day Of his conservation.
his natural paleness and diaphanous thin
ness, increased. and emphasized by the
long fast OF the previous day, made one
OF the spectators declare that he looked
exactly as cid Lazarus on his resurrec-
ton from the tomb. This corpse-like ap-
pearance prompted an old Irish woman in
the crowded church to calculate. loud
enough for the new archbishop TO hear:
What aa PITY to go through such a deal
OF trouble for the sake Of three weeks.'
I think I have more in me than that"
remarked Manning, afterward. Il expect
to last some fifteen years yet" AS a
fact, his episeopate, filed to the brim and
pressed down with hard work, covered
more than q quarter of a
century. .

STORY OF POCAHONTAs.
Mrs. Anne s. Green's Delightful Book
on HThe Maid of Jamestorrn.n


Mrs. Anne S. Green's recently published
work, "The Maid of jamestown" is one
of the best literary souvenirs Of the Ter
centennial. It contains many romantic
facts and incidents hitherto unexpected,
IL not unknown to the majority of read
ers, relating to the first acquaintance,
early friendship. and association between
Pocahontas and Capt. Smith. Readers
who enjoy delving into traditional lore for
the truth will find this book Of Mrs.
Green's Of great value, for It gives, in sim
pie detail. without verbiage or flights of
fancy, Incidents and conversations in
which John Smith and the Indian girl
were the chief figures. Mrs. Green pre-
sents material that goes far TO prove that
there existed true love between these
historic characters. and that Poeahontas
would unquestionably have remained true
to Smith but for the fact that she firmly
believed him dead when she gave herself
to another in marriage. The scene at the
death Of Pocahontas is particularly touch
ing and well developed. The Maid of
jamestown" is illuminated by a series OF
well adapted and inspiring Illustrations
from the pen OF Jesse Foster, a compare

Mrs. Green says Shakespeare's .'The
Tempest was the result OF an inspiration
given by John Smith to the famous bard.
and that during the presentation of The
Tempest at the Globe Theater, in Lon
don, Pocahontas, sitting in the Queens
oox, discovered in an opposite box Capt.
smith, whom she had long thought dead.
Mrs. Green. who is president of the
Pocahontas Bell Association, is spending
the summer at Beach, Chesterfield Coun-
", Va where she gets as much rest as
is possible In connection with her active
interest in the jamestown Exposition and
all concerning it. She has received the
congratulations of all her friends on her
literary debut. and the book has gained
such prestige already that publishers and
educators have been in communication
with her with q view to using her work.

thing that is being accomplished all over
India.
The schools OF India are the crowning
glory of mission work: they are the mills
of which manhood and wOmanhood is the
finished product. They are distinct and
powerful contribution to the forces which
are creating a modern national conscious
ness in India.
One phase Of missions to which the gov
ernment contributes its support, financial
and otherwise. Is the industrial school
work The Indian is proverbially IN
progressive and uninventive; the mission
schools are teaching the manual arts in
modern fashion, so that new enterprises
for the winning Of livelihood are being
created and old ones revived.
For the Christians, be IL understood,
are practically a caste by themselves in
most places. They are cast off by their
families. friends, and cO-religionists, and
it is necessary that some means of liveli-
hood not dependent upon neighborhood
favor be taught them. Thus industrial
training has a most practical relation to
missionary success; since not all nor in
these days Of great ingathering a very
large percentage OF the native Christians
can be employed by the missionaries in
any capacity.

Physical Hardships.
Physical hardships are more numerous
for missionaries in India than for those in
any other Oriental land. I came 70 india
in the hot season; some missionaries
were cruel enough to gloat over this fact,
for more travellers see India only in its
delightful cool season. and then won
