Warships were sent to Tangier, and all kinds of pressure was exerted to compel the Sultan to obtain the release of the captives, who were held, under threats of death, unless a heav: -ransom be paid and other demands be complied with. That the kidnaping is likely to lead to a crisis iu the affairs of Morocco is very ' generally believed. The present situation is. a demonstration of the instability of the present government, and is expected to spur European governBp - v". Ji - $ I: A TYPICAL BRIG^ ments to action. Morocco lias a population estimated by some at 9,400.000. The Sultan of Morocco claims to be in from Ffltilliah. Bv the daughter of the prophet. His auBfc.v thority is absolute nml not modified, rap as in Turkey, by the opinions of the |g|. learned. The area of Morocco can only be vaguely estimated, .as the southern frontiers toward the Sahara Deser, E; *re unsettled, but ft probably "contains IBs Jinft OOO sauare miles. I There is one English newspaper, two French and three Spanish'published in Tangier. The army of Morocco is estimated at 80.000. including the militia. It is trained and commanded by English, French and Italian officers. Nothing has been done' to develop the country by either opening roads or railways. It is one of the most neglected spots in the world! > Agriculture is very greatly neglected. The people only cultivate their land from dire necessity. In 1902 the chief exports were almonds, beans, peas,*oxen, eggs and skins. Its chief imports are cotton goods and sugar. There are representatives of fourteen nations at Tangier. The British envoy is Sir Arthur Nieolson, Bart., K. C. B. There is perhaps no portion of the IN THE PI II PHILANDE f;_ Attorney-General of the United Sta W.

These are M Carlyle, Mrs. Hardy and Mrs. SpentIt is curious, says the Ladies' Pictori that there is always more interest taching to the mothers of men of <1 tinction than to their sires, even they have been men of some mark. {c eniH mrtct mnit xvlm nr-liie greatness inherit their ability fr< their mothers, and it is notewort that nearly all distinguished men ha been greatly attached to their motlie One can never forget the Poet Gra; exquisite epitaph on his mother, or A J. ,M.
