Of course he missed, for, as everybody knows, a boss is no easy mark. SACRED LOOT. N INTERESTING “SOUVENIR™ about to be placed on exhibition in the National Museum at Washington is the lock and key to the Sacred City (the Imperial residence) of Peking, which same was sent, through Minister Conger, as a gift from the Rev. W. T. Hobart, an Amer- ican missionary in China. Is the National Muscum to continue to be a repository for loot? By order of President McKinley that institution has just restored to General G. W. Custis Lee the family heirloom relics of George Washington which were “taken” from the Lee mansion at Ar- lington during the Civil War. If that restitution is right, why is not the “ sacred" Chinese acquisition wrong ? CHURCH AND STAGE. N THE QUIET and unassuming work of the Actors’ Church Alliance, composed in its council membership of clergymen and actors in about equal proportion, and of which Bishop Potter is the president, a really effective movement is making for the elevation of the stage—though the Alliance people don’t call it that. The practical crusade at present under way is directed against Sunday stage performances of all kinds throughout the whole country. This is a big job, in itself sufficient to justify and oc- cupy the organization. But the most striking- ideas, cee ly impressive evidence of good faith on the A LEYLAND steam- part of the ladies and ship “ went on the gentlemen of the stage rocks” recently; but in connection with the this has no reference to J.

THOS ten “The Life of a Boston Museum of Fine Arts look envia- bly cool in the swelter- ing summer-time, not- withstanding puritani- cal critics are doing their best to make it hot for ‘em, eee M DE BLOCH, of * the Russian Council of State, re- marks ominously that the Powers, having succeeded in finally rousing the Chinese dragon, and having kindly organized the Yellow Peril, may now shortly expect real trouble to begin. ove M®- JOSEPH CHOATE, our American Ambassador in London, de- clares that Great Britain has been mellowed by the half-century’s activity of Sir Joha Tenniel, the veteran cartoonist of Punch. Give JuDGr. time and he'll do as much for America, though it must be acknowledged that we have greener material to work upon. y He Wy mig, Ip dy NTO TU new fence front o' the house.” eee PROVIDENCE is kind and comforting, even to Mr. Bryan and the other anti-imperialists, It transpires that three native Filipinos, resi- dent in Spain, have been recently elected to.the Spanish Parliament, and they propose, during the course of the debate on the Speech from the Throne, to bring up the question of the condition of the Philippines, alleg- ing that the situation is worse than before the war. eee #*LJOOT, MON!" cried the Scot, who was full as the de’ll O' your true Caledonian wut "— “ Wi’ an automobile, I ken ye're awheel, But bicyclin’ is ridin’ afoot.” asin An ys yipindaftannts THEY COULD USE HIM.

When he comes home ye kin jes’ set him to work puttin’ a Bee,” in which he treats of the hymenop- tera as though they were rational human beings acting upon human motives for the attainment of human ends. He discourses (in bee-land all the time) upon the cost of liberty, the sacrifice of individual rights,- of economic systems, of political evolution, and even of the impaired intellect, the degraded charac- ter, and the “ prolonged regrets” of certain bees. In short, Maeterlinck in this work reveals himself as a kind of poetic or literary Gus Dirks, This, after all, is merely a reversal of his previous dramatic form, as in his plays he habitually treats his (more or less) human characters as bees—bees of his own bonnet, whose only honey is Maurice’s sweet, elusive lines. M, ‘) ay 4 It’s the fust useful thing he's KINGSTON’S FEATHERED KALEIDOSCOPE. AGENTA, orange, purple, peacock-green and vermilion geese, swim- ming placidly about the mirror-like surface of the mill-pond, consti- tute one of the most strikingly novel sights of the historic town of Kings- ton,N.Y. These variegated fowl are no factitious creation of the inebriate fancy; their gorgeous tints are the real thing, being simply due to the fact that a dye-factory is situated on the banks of the local streamlet. The celebrated case of Townsend vs. Bell, which was tried five times in Ulster County, and has finally been decided in favor of the defendant in the Court of Appeals at Buffalo, was a plea for an injunction restraining the said defendant from operating the said dye-factory. The said prismatic geese were brought in evidence as giving color to the charge that the said plain- tiff was a villain of the deepest dye, but the court decided he was not so bad as painted. So the rainbow-hued geese of Kingston are to remain a fixture. comicbooks,com
