The population Of Liverpool is mix

ulstion was 6S5,OO0 OF these 55,-
900 were Irish, 20,7o0 Welsh, 1900
Scotch and 1900 foreign $4,000 of
whom we're naturalized residents) .
The foreign residents consist of
wealthy merchants and representa-
tives of foreign firms; a Jewish quar-
ter engaged chiefly in the chothing
and furniture trade; a Chinese quar-
ter, and little patch Of Scandinav-
ians. Liverpool is the stronghold of
the Roman Catholics in England, one
quarter of its citizens being mem
bers of that body The Low Church
party is also strong, and between a
certain section of that party-the Or
angemen-and the Catholics bitter
feud exists. OF the other religious bod
les the Unitarians are strong, not nu-
merically, but In influence. The cor
poration has 13 parks and 80 open
spaces laid out as gardens or recre-
alton grounds-in all about 1908
acres.-Westminster Gazette.

Miss Susan Glaspell, the author, has

Editor Who Was Cut by Plain but
Successful Author Knew How

The editor Of a newspaper having
been cut at Brighton by a plain little

We'll, why shouldn't he cut me?
He has produced novel that actually

Look at Gibbon.
"Gibbon, you know, wrote in his
diary: I am the greatest historian
that ever lived. No one can equal me
in this direction
Victor Hugo wrote to Bismarck:

thee furiously because thou hast hum

"And Wordsworth said of the Swan
OF Avon: There is an immensity of
trick in all he wrote. II had a mind
! could write exactly like Shakes

mo wonder, then, the weedy little
chap cut me-" the editor concluded.
But I'll get even with him. I'll snap
