He says “America wants to exploit the whole world but would shut out foreigners from her borders is it not likely that foreign nations will retaliate? And then what answer can America make? Bharati is wonderfully picturesque, both in his personal appearance and in his dress. Large of frame, with the yellow prayer cloth of his “Krishna” inscribed with wondrous words to the Hindu faith wound around his turban, glossy black curls falling about his shoulders, with bright eyes and strongly chiseled features that seem to combine the vigor of the west with the calmness and placidity of the east, he is a striking figure that would command attention anywhere. He is a Brahmin of the first order. His father was a magistrate and his uncle a judge of the high court of Calcutta, while he himself was editor of the Lahore Tribune when Rudyard Kipling was a newspaper writer there. But he gave up ngwgpaper work to become a religious ascetic, and for 12 years he lived a life va. most austere simplicity in Brindaban, one of India’s most holy places. He heard a call to go to the Occident, and in obedience to it he came to America. Giving. his opinion of America and Americans on leaving, he said: “The trouble with America is that it is building on a material plane. It is making tremendous progress in all things material, but we of the erient understand the spiritual. We live not for to-day, but for all time, and when you forget the soul, as you do, you are making a sad mistake.” MADAME FALLIERES Probably the wife of no ruler over the destinies of a great nation possesses the unique accomplishments of Mme. Fallieres, wife of Clement Armand Fallieres, president of the French reputblic. The first lady of France comes from Gascony, a district sung in the troubadour lays and illustrious in the annals of romanceand ‘history. In the midst of Paris frivolities she leads the simple life of the Gascon gentlewoman, spinning, weaving, embroidering and directing, even at a distance, the big country estate of her husband at Loupillon of Lot-et-Garonne. M. Fallieres owns a farm ofless than a hundred acres at Loupillon, but under the skillful care of madamehe gets a comfortable fortune out of his flax and dairies. The wines and the fruits and the grain lands are his special care and they are equally profitable. Nme,. Fallieres, now in her sixty-fifth year, has been busyall her happy life, and the results of her industry seem almost incredible. For she has spun and woven and embroidered for her four children a dozen fine table cevers and 12 dozen doilies of varying sizes and for different uses. Hack piece bears the monogram of its future owner and all are kept in a great chest awaiting the division of the patrimony, after the demise of the elders. In addition, Mme. Fallieres has spun and woven exquisite linen curtains and embroidered them skillfully in flowers and leaves with gracefully woven scalloped edges. Every window in her great mansion at Loupillon is cur tained with the work of her hands and her dining hall is filled with exquisite covers and drapings Mme Fallieres is utterly oblivious to Paris frivolity or Parisian extravagance. She gowns herself after the fashion of Gascon women, in plain dark silks enlivened with a bit ot yellow lace or iridescent trifles and is as oblivious of the passing fashions as though she lived in a convent PROFESSOR FIFTY YEARS Dr; Basil L. Gildersleeve, professor of Greek at Johns Hopkins, the great university at Baltimore which takes as freshmen the graduates of other universities, has the unique distinction of having been a professor for 50 years. He is preparing to celebrate his jubilee. He was appointed professor of Johns Hopkins several years after the 1e age allotted to man by Dr. Osler, for he had } already served 20 years in the University of Virginia, but there was no chloroforming process for hin He felt that he had wasted some of his youthful years and he was seeking to recover lost time so he was an indefatigable worker. The first 14 years of his life were spent in Charleston, S. C. In the summer of 1850, after a college course, he took a trip to Germany on a sailing vessel, perfected his knowledge of the language and took a degree at the University of Gottingen. In 1856 he be came professor of Greek at the University of Virginia, but when the civil war broke out he joined the southern forces and lost his pocket edition of Homer which he always carried with him, his pistol, one of his horses and almost lost his life as well. For five months he lay in a hospital studying Spanish, for he expected that he and the other impenitent confederates would be shipped out of the country, and he intended to strike for South Africa. He was dealt with more leniently, however, and resumed his professorship, which position he held for 20 years in all. Then he went to Johns Hopkins, where he has made an enviable record. He has a world wide reputation and holds honorary degrees from a score of universities both in this country and abroad. He is of age, years but is hale and hearty and is apparently good for another ten or 15 years. TRAPPING TRIED TO DRIVE OUT DEVIL. Filipino Witch Doctor May Caused Death of Girl. Coon, Have A Filipino girl, 18 years o f age, was beaten and tortured until her life 18 now in danger in an attempt to compel a “devil to leave her body.” The operation was perforr ned by one Escolasticos Ramos the husband of her mother, and Tuburio Mables, a witch doctor The girl has been subject to convulsions and these according to devil the doctor, were caused by a abode in her body who had tak At his suggestion it was decided to ill-treat the girl until the devil should become uncomfortable and leave her Taking the girl into a side room they knocked her down and commenced to | beat her with fists.
