' windiest flotsam-cs! the unsuccessful Greek revolts against ticnal‘ league. *mm mm meals of the present have brought it into prominence, was formed as far back as tho mginniug of the nineteenth century. The opwessioas and cruelties of the Turkish conqueror had maddaued the liberty loving Greeks. After one of Turkish tyranny a handful of Greeks swore by the most solemn oaths they mold frame that they wouldywcrk till they freed Greece and all peoples of. Greek blood from the sultan’s rule. Ba- ligion consecrated their oaths. Rocks of the Greek church blmd the mom- bers of this secret society and approved their aims. ’ The result shows what quiet. secret agitation and patient waiting will do. ‘ A united organization working silently by the peaceful methods of tho Ethniko Hotliiria could in time overturn the so- cial and political systsuns of the world. Without award publiclyof its existence the brotherhoodwroaght on. It prose- lytcd mug Greek races, it set forth in pamiouatc appeal the Wrongs of the Greeks of today and the glories and lib< crties of those of ancient times. Beyond doubt am. the power of this secret society that finally overthrew tho Mosh-m and set up the kingdom of Greece in 1829. There is not a shadow of doubt either that in tho present cri- sis the sumo brotherhood will gain the immediate object of the uprising, which is to unite Crete to Greece. where it be- longs. The organization has the hearty sympathy and aid of the Greek govern- ment. It is claimed that among the very officers of the sultan's palace itself there are those belonging to the league and that in Constantinople 50,000 men are members. Wherever people of Greek blood are subject to Moslcui rule there the Hctairia flourishes. Knowing this powerful league was at its back, it was not more blaster that prompted Greece to take the stand for Crete. The plans adopted by this country to preserve the seals of the Prihilof islands of Alaska from extermination are a beautiful illustration of how much longer it takesagovernment to do a thing than it does a private individ- ual. Suppose private citizens owned tho seal islands rmd the seals and their property was lming rapidly destroyed by poachers. In one month's time they would have an army of defenders on tho ground, shooting and capturing every sneaking poacher that showed his head. But tho United States owns the splendid seal herds of tho Pribilof rook: cries, and hero is tho method pursued: (lnr executive department as usual ap- points a commission. It has not begun its labors yet and is in no hurry. By May it is hoped. besides. to have a sur- veying party ready to start to the seal islands. They are not going to do any. thing; however. but just merely to make a survey of tho islands. They cannot complete it. this year. but must make another urn-let's work «i the thing. In five yum. if all mes well. we may hope to ban a report of the doings of this party‘and the commission of exam- iners printed. Then it will be laid be- foro congress and laid over from session to session. By tho tlmo congress gets around to it.

Rose Hawthorne Lathrop, in her “ blom< urine of Hawthorne," gives this descrip- tion of her father's methods of writing: " He had none of the f rautic mmsidcra- tlons of Scott or Balrac. If he made a change in a word, it was while it was fresh, and no one’ could obliterate what he had written with a more fearless blot of the finger or one which looked more our- most and interesting. . There was no scratch lug nor quiddling in tho manner with which he fought for his art. Farrah day he thought out the pmhlmns he had not him- self before beginning to write, and if a word offended him, as he recorded the m- rnlt lw thrust it back into chaos beforo the ink had dried. I think that tho manti- script of ‘llr. (lrimshnwo’s Surrot' is an exception to mine extent. There an- many written sclf minniutiings and changes in it. I am not serohut that my father sonic- times-destroyml first drafts, of which his family know nothing. Indeed we have his own word for it that ‘hc missed the day is writing stories and tho night in burning them.’ Neverthloss, his tendency we know to have been that of thinkingput his plots and stones and characters and transcrib- ing them rapidly without further change.
