HiGH-cLAss CRIMINALS.

In the criminal classes of Naples
are many who are able to enter the
best society. Speaking of the upper
strata of the Camorra a writer in the
London Chronicle says: 'This
criminal smart set has its own spe-
cial sphere of action. 1t frequents
the salons and drawing rooms Of the
fashionable world, wears evening
dress and dimes at good restaurants.
These high caste criminals consist
very often Of decayed and spend
thrift noblemen and viveurs Of prom
inent families, who are driven to a
life Of wrongdoing by chronic impe-
curiosity. Their speciality is the ex-
torting of taxes from high-class
gambling houses or from other es-
adjustments bearing sinister reputa-
tons. The police, curiously enough,
view these proceedings with toler-
ant, one might say blind, eye"

BEAUTY is FOUND
Noble Ideals That Call Forth the
Smile Of Angela and Soar
Direct to God.

There are about us thousands and
thousands of poor creatures who
have nothing of beauty in their lives
they come, they go, in obscurity, and
we believe that all is dead within
them; and no one pays any heed.
And then one day simple word, an
unexpected silence, a little tear that
springs from the source of beauty
itself, tells us that they have found
the means of raising aloft, in the
shadow of their soul, an ideal thou
sand times more beautiful than the
most beautiful things their ears
have ever heard or their eyes ever
seen. Oh, noble and pallid ideals o!
silence and shadow 1t is you,
above all, who call forth the smile
of the angels; it is you, above all,
who soar direct to God !-Maeter-
linck.

An Attentive Class.

The College Of France, founded In
Paris by Francis l., offers at the pes
ent day not only strictly academic in
struction. but opportunities for the
higher education In general. The fol-
lowing anecdote, from The Colour OF
Paris, shows how far the college car
ries its scrupulousness. Every sci
entifio subject, even the most alb
struse, will continue to be taught
there as long as one solitary individ-
ual in all Europe desires to pursue 1t.
Certain courses are followed by two
or three persons only. They tell the
story OF a professor OF mathematics.
This professor. who was extremely abb
ssnt-minded, had lectured for a whole
year TO only one pupil.
He was perfectly satisfied that II
should be 90, but It occurred to him
one day that he ought to congratulate
his rare disciple. and he accordingly
aid 30.
Monsieur does not recognize me. !"
replied the pupil. II am monsieur'a
coachman, and ! always walt here un'

Whether or not the traveller Is right
who contends that so words are
enough for q mans practical needs,
his'kheory of an abridged vocabulary
for everyday use is In line with the
tendency OF speech In this country.
We are simplifying the language to
the extent of preferring the simpler
forms OF expression. both in our wri-
ting and our speaking. It is purifying
our speech and improving our diction.
The master of simple English, who
can write or speak In terms OF the
most commonplace language. IL the
most effective. Even eloquepce may
be we'll defined as simplicity.
A great New York minister has re-
Gently published q series Of discourses
In book form and one may read half
way through the volume before he
comes upon a word that is not COM
mon to the simplest speech. Yet the
book in its diction is powerful. There
is such a thing as working for the lam
guage, and such thing as letting the
language work for you. The master
of English does the latter.

WONDERS OF CANAL ZONE
Real Panama souyenlrs Made IN Ohio
Most Popular Among the
Tourists.

A man who was a passenger on an
excursion steamer which returned a
few DAYS ago from Panama and
Costa Rica said that all the tourists
were deeply interested in what they
saw in Panama and along the line
of the canal in the four days which
they spent there. THE monster

duck suits which we had to buy, the
Independence Of the merchants who
would not send them to you, and the
hospitality Of the members Of the
American club will all be remem-
bered, but the most wonderful thing
we saw was the purchase by nearly
every visitor Of a real Panama SOU

Democracy.

Democracy implies infinity. Men
are declared to be equal because It is
discovered that all men. the least as
well as the greatest. have or may
have access to the infinite. The OBJ
Vious disparities become Insignificant
in view OF this great eommouness.
Innnity plus a million is seen to be
no more than infnity Plus one. II II
were not for Democracy religion
would be inconceivable; II a mans
soul Is measurable and transient,
Demscracy is neutrality-suspicious.
