Sev- eral stories have been handed down concerning Boatswain's unusual intelll gence and his noble generosity of spirit ‘The prose epitaph, which thousands Americans have reat on Boats’ monument, begins as follows: ‘Near this spot are deposited the remains of one who possensed beauty without van- ity, courage without ferocity and all the | virtues of man without his vices.

This face, always masked behind the Czar's face, is not so familiar to the public. It is a cold, narrow face, long, thin, Tt is a pallid, a pasty face. Tt looks as if it would have the feel of a frog orasnake, But it is an intellectual face—intellectual without heing enlightened. Behind this face is a character as strong as Morgan’s, but with none of his “human” qualities. Ascetic, incapable of affection, eruel to mercilessness, intolerant, capable of no warmth but the fury of hatred for the enemies of ignorance, superstition and political slav- ery. And he is master in Russia, and will remain master, because of that dense cloud of ignorance which hangs over it. It is natural that the Master-Man of the democratic industrial spirit should be the greatest democratic and industrial factor in the world. [Tt is equally natural that the Master-Man of barbarism shonld be a Russian, HUMAN DIFFERENCES. The inequalities of men and women in this world have rarely been depicted with more graphie power than by Count Tolstoy, in his article on “The Root of the Evil.” in the North American Review for April. Tt is a merciless picture in black and white- with no shading. The writer deseribes the sordid, hope less, ill-paid toil of miners, foundryinen, factory operatives and in Russia, and puts in contrast with this dark picture the gayety and luxury of their employers. And he says: sare acquired always either by violencethe most common way—or by avarice, or by some huge villainy, or by chronte swindling, as in the case of ‘The better a man In the more sure t@ he of losing his wealth. ‘The worne . the more sure he ts of retaining and Increasing his fortune.

There {s not an intel- ligent workingman in this country who cannot off-hand name some of the countless contradictions of Tolstoy’s theory—the first Astor. Stephen Girard, Georgo Peabody, Peter Cooper, Carnegie, Schwab, Edison, Pupin. Were their fortunes accumulated in any of the ways which Count Tolstoy names? Did they and do they not labor longer and harder than any of their employees? For the most part our rich men are from the ranks of the lnborers and are still toiling in the ranks. The truth is that the Russian miner, or laboror, or peasant re- mains poor because he is ignorant and because his environment forbids progress. In this more favored country, as Garfield said, “the Republic is opportunity.” There is not merely opportunity for edu-| trade. the ma $ev-eneeneneenenenenene > FOR DRAWS | S DIAINS.
