ENGLAND AS AN
AMERICAN STATE
Cecil Rhodes Favored a WorU
Republic.
WOULD MEAN LASTING PEACE.
W. T. Stoad Tells of Interview With
Rhodes In Which the "Colossus of
South Africa" Favored the Different
Parts of the British Empire Becom
ing Parts of the American Union.
Three Young Men Destined to
Wear Crowns and Govern Nations
W. T. Stead recently published a
statement to the effect that "Cecil
Rhodes said If the Anglo-American
onion could not be obtained otherwlMs
than by applying for admission as
states federated with the American
Union bo would apply."
This aroused the Interest of Andrew
Carnegie, who wrote to Stead for par
ticulars. In response the English edi
tor made the significant assertion that
Rhodes was ready to have England
and nil her colonies apply for admis
sion as states in the American Union.
Says Stead:
"Mr. Carnegie's Inquiry suggests Im
possibility that other readers may be
glad of a reminder as to the attitude
of Cecil Ithodcs in relation to the great
question which has once more been
brought prominently to the front by
the reciprocity agreement between
Canada and the United States.
"The statement to which Mr. Carne
gie; refers was made to me personally
at the olllco of the Review of Reviews.
Mowbray House, in 1S91. It repre
sented the ultimate stage in the evo
lntlon of Mr. Rhodes' mind on the sub
ject in question.
"When Mr. Rhodes wns a youiu-'
man without n penny In his pocket he
drew tip n will leaving nny mono
that he might hereafter acquire for
the attainment of his Ideals. Ills idea
was the formation of n UInd of secu
lar church which should have Its mem
bers In every part of the British cm
plre working with one object and one
idea and especially ndvocatlng the
closer union Of England and her colo
nics, crushing all disloyalty and every
movement for the severance of our
empire.
Wanted England to Absorb America,
"llence in his will ho defined, among
other objects of the secret society, 'the
ultimate recovery of the United State-i
of America as an Integral part of tin
British empire, the inauguration of a
system of colonial representntlon In
the Imperial parliament which may
tend to weld together the disjointed
members of the empire nnd finally the
foundation of so great a power as lo
lieroafter render wars Impossible and
promote the best Interests of human
ity. "That wns what we may call his
jumping off point before ho adequate
ly realized that the United States had
by its growth, its power and its com
pactness become the predominant part
ner of the English speaking race.
From this crude undergraduate's Idea
of 'the recovery of the United States'
to the recognition of the fact that It
might be necessary to merge the Brit
ish empire In the United States is u
long stage, but Rhodes traversed It
slowly and steadily, never turning
back.
"I did not meet him until eleven
years after he had made his first will.
From that time I can speak authorita
tively as to the movement of his mind,
lie wrote to mo declaring that the
practicnl solution of the groat political
problem was the union with Ameriui,
brought about by a commercial war
for the purpose of securing a commer
cial union nnd the ndoptlon of the
principles of the American constitu
tion as the basis of the reunited Eng
lish speaking world.
Ready For America to Absorb England.
"Again and again Mr. Rhodes re
turned to Ids dominant conception
until at last his theory that the su
premacy of the world must bo placed
In the hands of the English speaking
race assumed almost the character of
a religious dogma.
"In the year 1891 ho talked to me for
three hours concerning his claims, his
plans, his hopes and his ideas. After
lie had been discoursing in his usual
Tenement fashion as to what might be
done if the republic and the empire
were united in n fraternal union I
said to him:
" 'I agree with every word that you
say, but I go further. I say that if I
were convinced that it would be Im
possible to secure the union of the
English speaking race on any other
terms than that the states under the
British llag should apply for union as
states of the American republic I
would be prepared to take that step.'
"Ho stopped In his walk, for ho was
pacing the room backward and for
ward as he talked, nnd said sharply:
'Say that again.'
"I repeated slowly and with em
phasis the declaration I had just made,
ne stopped for a minute and then
said, 'Upon my word, Stead, I agreo
with you.
"From that moment the ideal of
English speaking reunion, even if it
could only bo obtained by the merging
nf the British empire in the United
States, assumed its natural and final
placo as the center of his. political as
pirations. Tho Rhodeslan ideal, there
fore, was tho promotion of racial unity
on tho basis of tho principles embodied
in tho American constitution."

Prince Frederick William of Germany.
Prince George of Saxony.
Prince Alexander of Servla.
H
ERE are three young men destined by nature to rule kingdoms at
some time In tho future unless revolutions or other causes prevent.
One of them is Crown Prince Frederick William of Germany, and
bis chance of belug kaiser some day Is excellent, much better than
tho prospects of the other young men pictured above. For instance. Crown
Prince Alexander of Servla has not much of a throne to sit on. and It Is rather
unstnblo-so unstable, In fact, that Alexander's elder brother, George, re
nounced his right to It two years ago and let his younger brother take the
title of crown prince nnd tho dangers that go with It. His father, Peter I.,
has had trouble ever since he was declared king hi 1!)03, after the assassina
tion of King Alexander and Queen Draga. Ho Is only a few generations In
descent from a peasant who led a successful insurrection against Turkey in
1804 nnd thus made himself a king. Crown Prince George of Saxony comes
of a much older family. He Is related by ties of blood to thy royal houses of
Great Britain, Prussia, Portugal, Belgium, Bulgaria nnd several of the smaller
kingdoms that help make up the Gerniau empire. Rut his father's place on
the throne is not secure, and for a time after ho became klm; in 1004 it was
extremely precarious. Tho elopement of his consort, the Princess Louise,
with a music teacher a year before he ascended tho throne caused friction
between the people nnd the crown that has not beci smoothed over.
MILLIONS OF LIVES.
An Awful Toll Collected by Consump
tion Many Unnecessary Deaths.
If people could only understand that
systematic catarrh Is an Internal dis
ease thut external applications cannot
cure, they would tint need to be warn
ed so often about this malady, which,
when neglected, paves the way often
times for consumption, at the cost of
millions of lives every year. Vet ca
tarrh may bo cured. If the right treat
ment Is employed.
The only wny to successfully treat
rntarrh Is b'y employing a medicine
which is nbsorbed nnd carried by the
blood to all parts of the system, so
that the mucous membrane or Internal
lining of the body Is toned up and
made capable of resisting the Infec
tion of consumption nnd other diseases.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescription of a physician who
for thirty years studied and made ca
tarrh a specialty, and whose record
wns a patient restored to health in
every case where his treatment wns
followed ns prescribed. That remedy
Is Rexall Mucu-Tone. We are so posi
tive that It will completely overcome
atarrh In all Its various forms.
whether acute or chronic, that we
promise to return every penny paid us
for the medicine In every case where
It falls or for uuy reason does not sat
isfy the user.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our recommendation and guar
antee. We nre right hero where you
live, and you do not contract any ob
ligation or risk when you try Rexull
Mucu-Tone on our guarantee. We
hnve Rexall Mucu-Tone In two sizes.
0 cents nnd $1.00. Very often the
taking of one r0-ccnt bottle Is suffi
cient to make a marked impression
upon the case. Of course in chronic
cases a longer treatment is neces
sary. The average la such Instances
Is three $1.00 bottles. Itemember

The Story of a Famous Hymn.
The famous hymn beginning "God
moves in a mysterious way," known
as "Cowper's Hymn." had its ori
rHn ns follows: Cowner was all his
I life tho victim of melancholia nnd
1 more than once attempted suicide.
One day, bent upon destroying himself,
he got Into a cab and ordered the
I driver to take him to a certain point
on the river whero he Intended to
! drown himself. Tho cabman, noticing
I his strange appearance and feeling
' that nil micht not bo right with him.
drove him about tho city and finally
stopped in front of the poet's door.
Stepping out and recognizing the old
familiar surroundings nnd shocked at
tho thought of his narrow escape,
Cowpcr exclaimed, "God moves in a
mysterious way his wonders to per
form." and. rushing in. immediately
composed the immortal hymn.

Tho Man With a Cold.
The sympathy given to the man with
a bard cold Is purely perfunctory.
We know, or nt least wo think we
know, that he will not die. We know
that ho Is thoroughly wretched, yet
we are equally certain that In three
days or so ho will be coming upstairs
two nt n time.. This does not comfort
him, though ho may know it himself.
He therefore feels himself an outcast,
a pariah. Ho Is cut off from the
ordinary human relations. If he so
much as kisses his wifo or child he
Is a blackguard, mentally self convict
ed of It. Nobody love3 him, and he
may go out into the kitchen nnd drink
cough sirup. Boston Transcript
Japanese Logic.
A teacher of Eug.lsh In Japan re
cently cave as au examination ques
tlon. "What is a ventilator'" Besides
the number of answers that were ap
proximately correct, there were two
which Indicated that the students
must have been absent either In body
or mind on tho day when tho school
room ventilator had been uiscusseu.
The first was, "The ventilator lives In
the uiouutulus;" the second, "Colum
bus was u great veutllutor." When
occasion offered the teacher reminded
his class that attention and application
nre requisite for acquiring knowledge
and seriously asked them why any
one should have given au answer such
as the one concerning Columbus. Ouo
of the best spokesmen In the class
essayed an explanation somewhat as
follows:
"Columbus brought now Ideas back to
the old world; he changed the current
of thought and opeued a great door
into the new and outer world; there
fore he was a great ventilator."

Some years ago, when playing in
Leeds, I started a swimming compe

as a prize a silver loving cup (won.

Washing Your Hands.
When you go to the washstand and
carefully wash your bauds with a gen
erous application of soup and hard
brush do not think for an instnut that
your hands are clean. The tenacious
microbe refuses to be disturbed and
clings to the flesh throughout the
whole operation. There are some chem
ical compounds which will dislodge
the busy bacilli to a certain extent,
but not entirely. According to the in
vestigations of a medical authority of
the Prussian army, the best results in
the direction of giving the hands a
sanltnry cleaning are accomplished by
the use of alcohol. A uatu or pure
alcohol will remove about 09 per cent
of the germs. Where it Is desired to
clean the bands hygtenleally it is rec
ommended that the hands bo not nrst
washed with water, for this will so
ndulterato the alcohol that it cannot
accomplish Its work as effectively as
