Prince Peter A1exetvitch Kropot- kin. scientist, explorer, geographer and anarchist, was born in Russia seventy-two years ago to-day. The Nihilist Prince comes of family that Is said to have as good claim to the Russian throne as the Romanoffs. Tn his youth Prince Peter travelled all over Manchuria, Siberia and China, and won the gold medal of the Rus sian Geographical Society. It was forty years ago that he joined the In- ternational Workingmen's Association the parent body of both scientific so- cfa1ism and pni1osophic anarchisn. The Prince was locked up in a dun geon in the grim fortress of St. Peter and St. Paul. For three years he was kept in close confinement, spending the time in writing scientific articles for the Brittanica, as well as two vol umes on glaciers. He used the heavy stool which was the only fur niture of his cell as a medicine ball, and walked five miles each day by pacing the narrow dungeon. Even tually he fell i'll and was sent to the hospital, from which, with the assist ance of friends, he managed to escape, and made his way to England. In Geneva he founded an anarchist paper, Le Revolte, and was expelled from Switzerland. He went to France, where he was imprisoned for three years. He inherited a vast fortune from his father, and his latter years, spent principally in England and Switzerland, have been peaceful and fRee from financial worry. Prince Kropotkin was given a cordial re- ception when he visited America. sev- eral years ago.

SIERRA LEONE.

The first settlement in Sierra Leone, the prosperous British colony on the west coast of Africa, was made 127 years ago to-day, Dec. g, 17S6. At that period London swarmed with free negroes living in poverty and on the verge of starvation, and Dr. Emeathman's scheme for sending them to Africa to found a colony was accepted as the best solution of tho difficulty The first ship-1oad of col onists consisted of 400 negroes and sixty whites, the latter principally wo- men of bad character. Although land for the colony had been purchas- ed from the native king, the Afr cans were not friendly, and a hostile attack. together with the shiftless- ness of the colonists, almost brought the venture to ruin. In 17s1 the sur- vivors were removed to a new settle ment, and in 17s2 the population Of the colony was increased by the in~ troduction of 1900 negroes from No va Scotia and the Bahamas. In 17s4 the settlement was again transferred to Freetown, now the capital of the colony and the greatest seaport on the west coast of Africa. In the ear 1y days the government of the idle blacks and the absolute whites was no sinecure, and Sydney Smith re- marked, not without truth, that Sierra Leone always had two governors one just arriving and the other just leaving. The soil of Sierra Leone is exceedingly fertile, but few white men are able to live there.

MEREDITH NICHOLSON,
 47 TO-DAY, REFUSES
 DIPLOMATIC POSITION

The President called him but he would not go because he loved the Hoosiers so. This is the explanation of the refusal by Meredith Nicholson, the eminent Indiana novelist, of the post of United States minister to Por- tugal, proffered by President Wilson. It is better fars thinks MT. Nicholson, to wear citizens clothing in Indian apolis than the gold lace of diplomacy in Lisbon. The author was born a Hoosier, at Crawfordsvflle, forty seven years ago to-day. and he never expects to get over it. Now and then he may wander over the world and up and down it, since the royal ties from his novels permit an un1im- fted indulgence in the luxury of trav- dianapolis. His youth was spent in the Hoosier capital, and he was ed- ucated in it's public schools. He was twenty-five when his heart was first gIaddened by the sight of his name on a thin volume of verse, entitled ''Short FIights'' Having thus tested his wings, he turned to noveI-writing. Every native Hoosier writes a novel, or at least a short story, sooner or la- ter. After two or three attempts that were fairly successful, MT. Nicholson produced '"The House of a Thousand Candles,'' and awakened one morning to find himself famous. On. the strength of this success he forced the public ito take another volume of poems. after which he wrote '"The Port of Missing Men," another suc- cess.
 MT. Nicholson declares that the heroines of his novels are real, flesh and blood HOosier girls, who are, he asserts, the typical American girIs'' Dr. Nicholson ''Litt. D., Wabash 1sO7). indignantly denies that Indiana young women are to be called "pro- vincial." The provincial gir1,'' in the sense of a feminine ''rube," is as non-existent as the Mrs. Harris of Dickens, says the Hoosier novelist.
 Rev. c. Campbell Morgan, the world-renowned pastor of Westmins- ter Congregational Chapel in Lindon, was born in Worcestershire half Q century ago to-day. He is almost as well known on this side of the AtIan- tic as in England, and has had occa- sion to refuse several calls from lead ing American churches.
