the East st. Louis police, who made q choice

THE ECLECTIC CONVENTION

In tho yoar 1702,-about tho time that france
Waa torn up with revolutionary theories OF all
kinds,-an infant was born to paria cluok-
maker, disciple Of Jean jacques Rousseau, and
fierce rovolutioniat. At this timo the noyy-
conner created little sensation outside Of the
cloclsmnker'B family, and 1t is not probable that
the fond parents themselves dreamed that their
sons system Of philosophy would one day at
traet as much attention as the political dis
quisitionR of ovon Jean Jacques himself. This
child Of the clockmaker was tho parent Of
Eclccticism.-Victor Couan. After exploring
tho roalms Of philosoplio thought, Cousin de-
veloped the theory that there had been lust
four systems Of philosophy, each Of which had
In turn monopolized tho public mind, but that
every one Of these syatems contained serious
perVerslona OF truth. Then 1t was that ho
founded the modern Eclectic school, selecting
from the various syatems tho eloments Of truth
In each. and Herewith constituting composite
philosophy. He discovered on all eldes Of him
exaggerated phases of senstionalism idoallam

The principal itom Of interest In the foreign

Emperor Of Germany and the Pope on

Tho Pope In his 1otter made tho
serious mistake Of assuming that the
Emperor did not oountenance tho measures Of
his Government toward his Ultramontane sub-
jects. In his reply, the Emperor courtoously
but pointedly corrects the Pope on this point
aud not only informs him that he approves
them, but also that he, is responsible for them,
and shall continue them so long as the Ultra
