PROBABLY MISTAKEN. Bishop Thoburn of the Metho dist Episcopal church gives, as his deliberate opinion, that this country will be overrun, in a few years, by swarms of Oriental peoples. Ihe Bishop, it is generally known, has been engaged in mis sionary work, chiefly in the Ori ent, for upward of fifty years, and is i- garded as a high author ity concerning the character, ambitions and methods of the Orientals. He does not speak as an alarmist. On the contrary he thinks no t tiger threatens this country for there is plenty of labor here for all who come. Whether they are a peril to us or not. depends upon ourselves, he believes. "We must either lift them up or they will carry us down," he says. Strange enough, the Bishop finds nothing denoting a fixed purpose and unity of action on part of these races to swarm to ana overrun this country. All those he conversed with said they were here on their own volition and simply seeking their own betterment. This induced the good Bishop to look in another direction for an explanation of the phenomenon. He says: "A new era has dawned and God is to send the benighted of other lands to this country for uplift ing." It is to be hoped the Bishop is mistaken. Surely he must be. We had the Indians to begin with; the Negroes then came; then lollowed the Chinese and the Filipinos all heathens to say nothing of a mighty host of benighted Christians we have imported' from the continent and southern Europe. We have a big job of uplifting on our hands at present and would take it most unkindly if God should un load swarms of benighted Orient als upon us just now. In fact we do not believe God will com mit any such an egregious blund er. He probably sees we have made a sorry mess of the up lifting business already entrust ed to us and will wait until we "make good" before giving: an additional and large supply of raw material to work up. It is true we have made a good many "good Indians" and a few good Negroes, but they have usually died in the process, and the survivors have not been much benefitted by our attempts to uplift these races. We are skeptical as to whether or not God will set the seal Of His approval on our work along this line by giving uy greater opportunities to practice our peculiar methods of uplifting and christianizing the benighted al ready within our borders. Bishop Thoburn must be mis taken. We might sooner believe that if God contemplates sending swarms of Hindus here it is for the purpose of uplifting us rais ing us out of the mire of selfish ness, commercialism, self-righteousness, bigotry and inconsis tcrcy in which these astute people see us wallowing while asking them to cast away their heathen and accept our christian religion. Aiany of these come here, and many more will doubtless follow, from time to time. They come to observe our life, our social, industrial and political life and institutions- They are looking forward to nationality for them selves. If we have anything w hich they may adopt and which will help them to realize their purpose of nationality they will lay hold of it. They will return to India and propagate their in formation and conclusions among their people and will establish their own nationality. i - ' This much we have learned from some of t ie brightest and most astute of those Hindus ai ready here. From other sources we learn thatthe English autnor ities in India see and recognize the purpose of the most intelli gent Hindus and admit it is a movement for nationality. Good Bishop Thoburn, engross ed for long years in working directly for the advancement of the Master's cause, sees only the secondary movement and fails to notice the real movement which may more correctly be regarded as directed of God. His theology teaches that while men are usually absorbed in secondary causes God in direct ing the chief cause. RIGHT CONCLUSIONS. The tariff gives no man or set of men any advantage what ever over any other man or set of men engaged in the same business: Therefore the tariff is not "class legislation." Standard Oil, mergers, pools and combinations formed by transportation companies do not receive any benefit from protect ive tariff legislation. Such mo nopolies, trusts and combinations abound in countries having no protective tariff law: Therefore it is not true that "protection is the mother of trufts. " It is true that protection has always been attended by general prosperity and free-trade or tariff-for-revenue-only legislation has always been closely followed by depression, panic, disaster and wide-spread distress: Therefore experience bids us cling to pro tection. The Republican party is the only party favoring the prinr iple of protection: Therefore all pro tectionists should support the tariff laws formulated by that party. The principle of prote- Ion must be preserved: Therefore when tariff revision is under taken it must be under direction of the friends of protection. Those who deny these conclu sions are free-traders and tanff-for-revenue men whatever else they may claim to be. Real Estate Transfers.

I 1 A mechanic named Watts of Bris- j tol, England, used to make shot by ! pounding out bars of lead into J sheetsof the required, thicmess ana then cutting the sheets into little cubes, which he rolled in a barrel until the corners were worn off by the friction. One night he dreamed that he was out when it' began to rain shot, little balls of lead falling all about him. He remembered his dream the next morning and won dered what shape molten lead would take if allowed to fall some distance through the air. To determine this he carried a ladleful of the metal up to the top of a church tower and dropped it into the moat below. Going down, he took from the shal low water several handfuls of per fect shot. Thus came to him the idea of the shot tower. Eggs That Jump. Tour friends will be mystified completely if you do this trick very carefully.

To each of these shells paste one end of a strand of fine silk, attach THE THICK KXP.LAINKD. the other end to one of your fingers. Then place them in a shallow bas ket. In doing the trick be sure that your audience are far enough away to be unable to see the silk threads. Now say that you will be able to make the eggs leap into the air by magnetizing them with your fingers. Of course, 11 you move a finger upward and downward, the shell at tached .to the other end of the A Most Worthy Article.
