Robert Grays ancestry has not been found.
He first appears in Salem, where another Robert Gray was contemporary, and very likely a kinsman. Family tradition calls Henry Gray the father of Robert, for whom he named the eldest son in 1672; eldest girl was Katherine. Edward and Brewster were names used that may give a clew to parentage. The only name the two Roberts used in common was Thomas, which leads me to place the two as grandsons of old Thomas Gray of Marblehead, who retired to Nantasket and left a line on the Cape. Someone may know who the eons of Thomas (1) Gray were.

In order to Improve these conditions Von Plehve has assigned fifty-seven new places, divided into twenty-three districts and eight provinces, to- the Jews, which were formerly closed to then. In his report to the cssr the minister says that this extended liberty to the Jews has already been confirmed by law. He alsa mentions that during his examination Into their- condltiors he found a great deil of suffering and misery, chiefly caused by lack of work. The aristocratic circles of Russia are very much opposed to Von Flelivei plan, hut Is generally believed that the cssr will support him. and shortly confirm the law whlch'has been passed.
LOXDOS LODGIXG HOl'SES The London County Council has just opened new lodging house for men. It Is to be known as Carrington House. Deptford. and is the second municipal lodging house erected by the council, the first having been opened In 1893 in Drury Lane. The latter has been crowded all the time and can accommodate 345 The charges were originally ten cents for a cubicle, or small bedroom, but this was too low.
and to make tha house pay It was necessary to raise the rate to six jience. or twelve cents a night. The new building Is larger and Is six stories high. The dining-room has tables to seat 440' men-at once, and- In the centre Is a large "hot plate" where the lodgers can cook their own meals. The reading-room Is about one-half the sixe of the dining hnll.
Is lighted from three sides and above, and Is well ventilated. Seats and tables accommodate 176 men and on the sides are hook shelves filled wit 1 books for the use of lodgers. Promenades are provided for the Inmates. 'and each lodger has an Independent cubicle, thirty-six square feet In area and lighted by a separate window; The ceilings are nine feet above the floors, and the petitions between cubicles reach within one and one-half feet of the ceilings. The charges for a cubicle, use of lavatories.
are twelve cents a night. No room can he booked for a longer period than seven nights. A locker may be had for twelve cents for any length of time and. upon return of the key, eight cents Is refunded. Storage for parcels may he had at two cents a month.
Private baths with hot and cold water, soap and towel, cost two cents.

C. E. H. It is not without -Tf the shudder that the Cos- 4 mopolltan' reads the Japs Tjtf despatches sent from Yokohama by the cor respondent of the- London Dally Mall, so grim Is the determination of 'the Japanese as reflected In those stirring reports. In a recent letter the correspondent says: 'On the officers and men are spoiling for a fight.
From the of the huge Mikasa and her sister battleships, down to the men on such craft as the White-naped- Crane and the Draigon's Lamp torpedo destroyers they' are swearing by every an- cestor that.

Cornered by an ingratiating Journalist he has thus described the memorable ceremony: It; was exceedingly, pretty, exceedingly dignified held in a sort of music hall like the conservatory. The king, the princes princesses and all the court were there, besides af goodly number of savants and statesmen.
In the background was a bust of Nobel. M. Marc hand, very affable minister plenipotentiary (representing M. and Mme. Curie), MM.
Arrhenius and BJSrasterae BjOrnson the one a Swede and the other' a Norwegian and myself stood before the king. Then was pronounced the discourse, which by this time everybody has read. Knowing no Swedish .1 understood not a word of it, friends have reviewed It for me in French. and my head still swims with Its eulogies of France and the French. The notable Incident of the occasion was the reconciliation between the king and Bj5rason.
The antipathy between that Norwegian writer and the Scandinavian monarch has been a- byword among the- nations. I really believe that the king and the ferocious democrat had never spoken to other before, hut on the occasion of the presentation of the Nobel prize they laid down their arms; and this, methlnks, was the really striking incident of those glowing r- The Cosmopolitan has rretlC.l not forgotten that Influence' about a year, ago M. -Jacques Morlsnd con- ttl Germany tributed to thp Mer-cure some exceedingly interesting articles on German influence In France articles resulting from- queries addressed to nota-ole people everywhere in France. And now comes a German counterblast: Die Zeit has been up' to 'similar tricks, and the Cosmopolitan is. thus enabled to read extracts from innumerable letters written from all parts o'f Germany to Herr Otto Julius Bierbaum.
The conclusion they reach Is something like this: The Intellectual and artistic influence of France upon Germany is no longer felt. Of course in certain pseudo-literary and pseudo-artistic circles and In the arts of amusem*nt. Germany continues to be more or less under the influence of France. To our shame we have theatres In Berlin where French plays are produced, and even In the provinces the same detestable example is followed. Finally, we have still in Germany too many editors and too many libraries inclined to welcome with all eagerness any new Parisian work, though they hesitate to republish our great writers or to advance our debutants.
This, It seems, is the dominant opinion today throughout intellectual Germany. To be sure, the Germans do not deny the immense influence which France exercised over Germany during the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, but some time ago German thought recovered Its independence and autonomy. Herr J. V. Wldmann replies to Herr Bierbaum, The Inhabitants of the- sun one day Inquired whether the earth exercised any influence upon the sun.
That was a by no means absurd question; the influence of the earth seemed quite apparent. But a few days later the Inhabitants of the earth reversed the question and usked whether the sun hot there Is no need of following the antithesis further! M.

As was to ha expected, a good deal of his material is far from fresh, for there la scarcely a man on.
earth who has been more exhaustively written up than the Emperor William. The following paragraph, however, seems to the Cosmopolitan not without significance: William 1L sees only one danger ahead, and that le the danger of revolution. Not a day of his life but he thinks of it. and this thought is reflected In all his addresses. This Is what keeps him travelling without cease, either in his own country to keep a watchful eye on the federated princes, or to foreign courts to strengthen his influence there or to cement alliances which reminds one of the Holy Alliance which the rulers of Russia.
Austria and Prussia con. eluded for a similar purpose against the insignificant demagogues of 183a This, too, Is the -impulse hack of the emperor's harangues to his soldiers and back of his sermons against the Socialists. The peril of revolution is the enemy which never escapes his vigilant eye. M. Hoche Is of the opinion that such constant anxiety accounts for the emperors exploits in the fine arts and explains why he composes hymns, paints watercolors.

Indeed. M. Hoche thinks that later portraits of the Emperor William show traces of these tendencies toward anxiety and distress the Prussian eagle is losing his strength, and the grip of his talons Is not so strong as aforetime, nor does his keen eye view the future without terror for the races which he realises are drifting away from his dominion. The revision of the The Righteous Dreyfus esse, soon to begin, suggests to the Fra.

In which he attempts the complete rehabilitation of that much maligned worthy. Victor Hugo had already done something toward the restoration of the true Fra Diavolo.

I thank J. M. T. for this ancestry leading to Adam. Is it the same I saw some years back In the Ladies' Home Journal, giving ancestry of Bowen and Wheaton, claiming In this article through Welsh kings proof in Welsh Chronicles to within about eight removes of Lantech, son of Methuselah? Now what proof Is there that Noah, eon of Lantech, was bom In the ark, and Is there anywhere proof of the eight generations following? It le more comforting to think of the descent from Adam, who seemed at least respectable.
but as one cornea down through the corrupt royalty and nobility one feels as if they would prefer yeoman ancestry. It le reassuring to genealogists to find that Brownings "Americans of Royal Descent la to he revised and the mistakes corrected, but It will carry a blow to many.

I am reminded of an Interview with Hon. Martin Townsend of Troy, N. lately deceased.

Those who recall the theory I held that William Ballard of Andover was a eon of William of Lynn will be glad to know that a discovery made by the Blunt historian abroad seems to settle It against such an opinion.
