Hector Laurie McPherson, missionaries of the Pres byterian Church on Savage island, wre brought by the barkentine, Mary E. Winkelnian, which arrived today at Mulkeiteo, Wash., from the Tonga islands in the South seas. While the barkentine lay at Tan gatabu, in the Tonga Lsiands,a canoe toad ot mission native from Savage islands arrivrd at Fua, bringing news of the buchery. The natives said that Hopkins and McPherson were teaching in the mis sion buildings standing on the beach inlhe little harbor of Savage island when two hundred unconverted sav ages, howling war cries and brand ishing clubs and spears, descended on them and took thirteen prisoners. The missionaries had twenty con verts in training at the time and only nine of them escaped. Both missionaries were bound with thongs and left lying on the beach in the tropical sun tor several hours, while the savages took the native captives inland. The cannibals then returned to the beach and carried the missionaries on a litttle to the crater at the extinct volcano Van lue, in the center of the island. There for two days and nights, they held a corroboree. At times their dancing and revelling could be seen plainly by the fugitive Christian natives. While most of the canibala were sleeping the captive natives escaped. Their going was hastened by the sight of two cf the cannibal chiefs donning' the missionaries' clothes.

A noted cripple once said be classi fied his friends by the degree In which they reminded him of his de formity or made him forget it. It la interesting to note how different peo ple enVcios by their thoughts about us, their presence and influence. The moment one comes into oar presence he seems to touch the very springs which let loose all that Is mean and contemptible, defiant in us. lie arouses our antagonism every time be speaks. He chafes us, Irritates us, arouses our opposition even against our will. lie belongs to a type of character that does not harmonize with the best that is in us. We have an Instinctive dread of people of this klna. They stir up and give new life to the very traits of character which we try to eradicate. These irritators drag out to the light the skeletons we have tried to bury. If they do not always mean to injure us, they do, neverthe less. We try be agreeable to them, but they throw a wet blanket on our enthusiasm, put a damper on our spontaneity, our buoyancy, untU we actually suffer in their presence,' and feel that a great load has been lifted from us when they depart. On the other hand, there are peo ple who are a perpetual Inspiration to U3. " Every time they come near us, we fetl as though we had taken a spir itual tonic, a mental bath. Where the others made us feel ten years old er, theeei people renew our youth. We feel the tingle of younge life coursing through our veins. All the antago nism we felt toward the irritators has gone in an instant; the sun has broken out of dark clouds and brought fresh life and cheer, and we feel a new joy of living. . These delightful people multiply our good qualities and traduce our bad ones; they make us touch heights we con Id not approach alone. When they are with us we do things easily which would have been impossible in the presence of those who antagonize or depress us. No matter what sorrows or difficul ties we may be passing through, these inspiriting characters come with a healing balm in their presence; they bring hopefulness and joy iand peace and comfort. We long for their com ing; we dread to have them go, be cause they have changed our very climate from an artic to a temperate one. We take new courage when they come again; they add strength to our determination to make the most of life. In the presence of these rare char acters we feel an added force of pow er which we can not describe, but whose potency can not be questioned. No one has ever been able to explain this personal power, but we have all felt its effects. Ltura Bridgman, the famous deaf-mute, said she felt a dis tinct force when certain people ' came near her which either attracted or re pelled her according to the character of the person. Her attendant' said she would instinctively shrink, as though something was going to barm her, whenever a bad person came uear her. She could feel character; could sense moral status. Whatever this personality-force may be, we know that It is a power for good or evil. Some noted bad characters inhistory ruined a great many people because of this tremendous personal force, this magnetism, which practically hypno tized others, as birds are sometimes held by the magnetism of a snake's i re- Youth's Companion. The backboard stood In front of the step and the crowd was gaily col lecting. Old Mr. Beekman Watched them wistfully. It was Carol Frost who, turning to call 1-ack a gay word to some one, noticed the lonely fig ure with the pathetic eyes and dang ling trumpet. 'Excuse me just a moment," she said to Juliet Beekman. "I want to epeak to your grandfather.' She ran back up the steps and held out a hand for the trumpet. "We are going to climb Old Bald," she explained. "We expect to reach the top about noon. We have mir rors to signal with and a field-glass. Won't you wave to us? I am sure we could see you." The old man's face brightened. "Surely I Surely!" He nodded eager ly. TU watch." AU the morning he was restless and excited. He climbed to his room for big largest handkerchief, and went Into the house half a dozen times to compare his watch with the clock. Finally the flashes appeared. A number of people were watching, and answered from the steps. In his corner he' waved his handkerchief alone. He was waiting when the crowd returned. Carol went to him at once. "I brought you the prettiest stone I could find on the top," she said. "I thank ye thank ye kindly I" the old man answered; and then, his eagerness conquering, "Are ye sure ye saw mi?" . "Sure," Carol answered. "You were standing right on this corner; the others were on the steps." The old man's face was almost ra diant. Some one had watched for him for him! That was the way it began the old man's happy summer. Presently a few others fell Into the habit of stopping a minute or two to tell him of their trips; and when they had t "stripplng-bee," at Carol's sugges tlon he was invited. It did not trouble him that be could not hear; it was happiness enough to be doing something with other people. His old, trembling fingers fumbled eager ly over the fragrant fir. Juliet did not wholly like it. "You mustn't let grandfather bother," she toMCaroC " " ." "He doesn't," Carol answered, quieuy. it isn't a bother; it's a pleasure." A month after she reached home Carol received a package and a note. The package contained an old medal The note was from Juliet. "Poor grandfather left us last week," Juliet wrote. "He wasn't HI; he Just fell asleep one night and did not wake again. Afterward we found this old school medal marked wun your name, iou won't care for It, I know, but I send it for bid sake. We miss him more than we could have thought possible. I wish I bad the chance to talk to him again ne wanted so lime, and we were so thoughtless." Carol touched the little old medal tenderly. It had cost sometimes, that summer, but she was so glad now. Faro y (gran 20 -oS nf7sz3 Hi W4r--Yitv ' GeUcIesafooaicr every y - Hln lilr iV day fa every fccsss S X THE NEW SPEAKERSHIP IDEA. New York Christian Advocate. It is rumored that in the near fu ture the "insurgent" Republican members of Congress may unite with the Democratic members to oust Speaker Cannon and to elect as Speaker In bis place Asher P. HIads. Mr. Uinde Is not a member of Con gress, lie is a parliamentarian oi great ability, whose knowledge is al ready a powerful factor in congres sional disputes. He Is not a parti san, ana n eiectea it wouia De as a nonpartisan presiding officer of ac knowledged capacity. Such a pro ceeding shocks all our political prej udices. For so long have we been told that government by political parties necessitates all our present system of blind parUsan bigotry, that the spectacle of an unprejudiced, eminently fair speaker, whose only im would be to preside Impartially, seems almost a revolution. If this proposition gets beyond the academic stage of news rumors and Is taken up seriously, our partisan press will fairly shriek with prophe cies of dire disaster to our whole polit ical fabric. We shall be, told in big headliness that the party In power is responsible and must be able to shape its policy. Of course such things at the packing of committees, of refusing to recognize certain members of Con gress for months, by the 8peaker, retaliation upon any member of his own party who differs with him, and the establishment of a powerful oil garchy behind the scenes are all inci dental and must be accepted as the necessary evils of a compact party organisation. Ui course, also, any legislation not wanted by the Spea ker's clique can be quietly killed in the committee room, if only the pre siding ofllcer U a part of the com' bine. 'Now, to break up this clique, ban lsh that oligarchy, set the House free, and make Its presiding officer its ser vanf instead of its master and auto crat, i? contrary to all the "interests" which nock to Washington. There fore it is very unliktly that such an eminently sane proposal as that of electing an unprejudiced master of parliamentary law to preside over the House win get beyond the incn bation state In the near future.

May horn, of Ohlopyle, who leaves tomorrow tor Chicago to receive his bequest of tl60,000 from John A. SerUe, of that city, who la at death's door.

A bad man or woman with great brain power and a strong magnetic force do untold injury to those who come within the magic of their influ ence, just as as a clean, pure, large hearted, large-brained person, with strong magnetic qualities, can do in finite good in attracting people from the wrong to the right The right kind of magnetism is just as cultivable as the wrong kind, and what a glorious thing it is to be able, wherever we go through life, to make ourselves magnets for good, attract ing people toward the true, the noble, the beautiful. It Is not a very difficult thing to cultivate the ability to radiate power, to be felt as a real force In the world. It is not a very difficult art to acquire. It is the positive qualities that radi ate force, the plus, the creative qual ities that send out beneficient power. Your reputation will depend upon the qualitv. of the Impression yon moke upon others. If you make a w s impression, you will be taken f r a weakling.

That human nature Is tbe same to day as It was four centuries ago Is in dicated by the fears aroused In vari ous places by the approach of Halley-U. comet. That the world has progress ed Is proved by the fact that these fears are exceptional and not general. Science reassures far more often than it alarms, and this is one of the strik ing instances of that fact. Astronomers, theologians and plain citizens today are speculating about this strange visitor of the skies, but they do not fail Into a su perstitious panic like the one which re sulted when this same comet appear ed in 1456, and to the Ave Maria was added this prayer: "Lord save as from the devil, the Turk and the com et." Of course, It so happened that about at that time the Turks had come into full possession of Constan tinople and were threatening to over run all of Eastern and Southern Eu rope. It seems to have been argued that though ,the Turks were quite powerful they had not yet reached the position of being able to command a comet to follow them ergo," it the urks did not bring the comet must have brought tbe Turks. Therefore the panic In later years the comet turned from a bad to a good omen, andirw have reports that the comets of 1811 and 1858 had a most beneficial effect on tbe earth's atmospere, especially of the vineyards of Southern Europe. t seems that the wine of those years was of such abundance and of such a oy-producing quality that for a lo, tlme it was advertised as "Com - wine." If our present methods i-f advertising had been in vogue we should probably be manufacturing Comet wine" even to this day per haps shooting off skyrockets over the vats in tbe cellars to produce tbe flavor. However, it is probable the only real effect a comet has is to make every one one more keenly alive to both the good and bad events of the "comet year."
