Whoever the author of this series may be, he certainly knows what he is writing about, and may be credited with produclug the only good literary satire of this generation. We understand that Miss Marie Corelli and Mr. Hall Caine are to be the next victims of this anonymous exe cutioner. As usual "The Reader" is full of interesting articles on literary subjects, the most remarkable of which, in this number, undoubtedly is a collection of hitherto unpublished notes of conversations with Schopen hauer, which will be of intense inter est to all admirers of the philosopher pessimist. An entertaining article is "Sailors as Critics at Sea Fiction," by Mr. Morgan Robertson, in which this well known writer of sea stories mer- rilv discourses of his fellow writers. Among the illustrations, the place of honor is given to a fine picture of Bjornsterne Bjornson, the grand old man of Norwegian life and literature. The total receipts of the postoffices in the United States for the last fiscal year were $121,848,047.26. the expendi tures were $124,785,697.07, leaving a deficit of $2,937,649.81. The three greatest items of expense were: Trans portation of mail3 on railroads, $34, 700,000; compensation to postmasters, $20,783,919.97, and the free delivery service, $17,123,310.90. Poked a Hornet's Nest. Dr. Bascom insists that the money of university endowers like Mr. Rocke feller smells rankly of its origin, and that Christian educators should be ashamed to take it and hold out their hands for more. We wonder wheth er, as a boy, Dr. Bascom ever poked a hornet's nest. He has done it now fr sure. "I consider- his remarks to be in execrable taste," says Dr. T. W. Goodspeed of Chicago. "Such talk is childish," says W. A. Payne of the Chicago university lecture association. "Bos ., pure and simple," says Frank lin H. Head of the same town. "My greatest wish is that there might b more men like Mr, Rockefeller," saya Charles L. Hutchinson, another Chica goan. "I do not believe that a col lego which receives money from Mr.; Rockefeller is guilty of any comprom ise of its duty to support the cardinal virtues of justice and charity," says President Thwing of Western Reserve university. Hartford Coura,nt. Government Ownership. The postofficc department continues to be a marvel of honesty, as com pared with institutions of finance or industry in private business life. Dur ing the last two years the money or der department handled $602,596,930, and the total loss on account of dis honesty or carelessness amounted to only $251. The money order business, moreover, wa3 done by 34,127 differ ent offices, and it represented nearlv 79,000,000 different transactions. So far as honesty is concerned, or the safety of the money handled, no pri vate business management could sur pass that record of a business which is wholly directed by the government.
