chief rather than good. Outside of two or
three large cities there is very little apprecia-
ton in America of the best sort Of art or the
best sort of artists. Even in New-YOrk, which
is far in advance of the rest OF the country,
there is a surprising and discouraging readi-
ness to accept medOcrity for excellence and
to be quite as well satisfied with coaIse,
ragged, and utterly unpOetical performance OF
n fine classical work as with the most polished
and sympathetic of interpretations. We see
this npalatable truth illustrated in the case
of Thomas himself. Musicians know that
he is one of those rare conductors
of whom the world never has more than
three or four in a lifetime and that among
the leaders of this country he is not only
without an equal but without a rival But

If he returns to it. as we presume that he

The continued briskness Of the transatlantic ship

every maritime country of Europe British steamers
largely predominate, but French, Spanish, Belgian,
Dutch. German and Danish flags are not an uncom-
mon sight In fact the only flag that is a novelty on
sea-going steamers in this chief American seaport Is
the American flag. 1t is seen only on coastng craft
and on the vessels that run TO Havana, Vera Cruz
and Aspnwall For the past fifteen years Congress
has debated off and on. the question Of how TO OBJ
tam portion Of the Transatlantic steam carrying
trade for American ships. but nothing has come OF
all the talk and Of all The schemes devised for the
purpose. Save the four vessels plying between
Philadelphia and Liverpool which are sustained by
the Pennsylvania Railroad, no steamer flying the
Stars and Stripes makes regular trips across the
Atlantic. When p great commercial Nation like the
United States has to call the ships not only of its
rivals, but of nearly all the little countries Of
Europe to carry its products to market, common
sense shows that there is something wrong IN the
affairs of that Nation Oar sailors are the best IN

The inference that the lookout on the steam
ship Arizona was defective on the night OF
the collision with an iceberg is one which
might have been drawn by Captain Cutie
himself in his most cautious and deliberatlye
mood without reference to BuDsby. The
English Court of Inquiry has rendered judg-
ment in the case, and in order 20 point the
moral has enforced wholesome discipline by
suspendng the certificates of the Captain and
Second Mate for the period of six months. so
long as icebergs are as imperiectly provided
with steering-gear and as inadequatcly
manned and equipped for Drotracted voyages
as they are at present, steamship officers are
expected to watch for them and to keep out
of their way when they are sighted. 1t Is one
Of the irksOme necessities of navigation. Or
course, when the American flag Is once run
up on the North Pole, and the Chief Signal
Officer is receiving hourly bulletins respecting
the Arctic ice harvest, the presumption VIII
be that every iceberg that cuts loose from Its
moorngs and heads southward under sealed
orders is supplied with revolving lighthouses
and automatic fog-hOrns. Meanwhile, the
captain and his officers must have their eyes
about them, and give such irresponsible craft
all the sea room they require.

The Committee of the Interoceanic Canal
have finally pulled themselves together and
agreed upon resolutions TO report TO the
House. We suspect that they scarcely realize
the Importance of the course which they
recommend. In reaffrming the Monroe Doc
trine and asserting that this interOceanic
trench, wherever 1t may be dug, must be
controlled by the United States, they
will commit the Nation to a momentous policy
for generations TO come. Fortifcatons at
each end OF the canal and a navy that will
not be the iaughing-stock of Europe are
factors of this international problem which
cannot be eliminated. In connection with
this absorbing question, we direct attention to
Professor Woolsey's letter on the Monroe
Doctrine, and to Lieutenant Commander
Wyses claims for the Panama route.

The Great Helper


Every person is conscious of lackino
something in his daily effort to live Welt
1t may be an uneasiness as to the future
in view of the past. 1t may be spirit
OF doubt that disturbs every effort to-
ward faith. 1t may be practical igno-
rance of real duties of daily life. 1t may
be the want of some example such as we
have never seen in our fellow-men to
pattern life after, or 1.-THE lack of posi-
tive assurance that religion is real. that
God is real, that eternity is real.
Now If one or all of these longings of
humanity can be met and satisfied by
any being, that one is the Great HELPER.
In Christ the world has one that answers
to his human call. His grace is all suf-
fcient to lift any man up out of the
dreadful past and the anxious present to
full assurance of the better future. The
fact that such being as Christ ever lived
on earth a mystery to those who lived
with him, yet blessing to them for good
something of mystery to all who
have read his life and death in the gospel
since he passed away from earth. vet a
greater power in the world to-day than
ever-this fact ought to satisfy any sane
man that religion is reality, for Christ
lived religion; that God is real, for Christ
was SO much about the highest concep-
ton of a man, be reflected the best idea
that man has of what God is; that eternity
is also real, for Christ talked as familiarly
of eternity as he did of time. The only
explanation that can be given of such q
being is the solution of these great dis
turblng questions.
His practical life likewise enlightens
our Ignorance of the duties of living.
His life, so pure, so true, so perfect, Is
the outline for our life, and the infallible
guide in life: What he said and did
under the varying circumstances of his
earthly being, as far as they touch our
lives, we may say and do. The way
Christ acted among men we may safely
act. And as he came from God and was
OF God, we may know that Christ's life
is the life God wants man to live.
Christ, then, is the Great Helper and
not to any one class or race of men alone,
nor to any one condition of life. He is
the universal friend brother, Saviour.
Why will any one try to live without
seeking help from Christ?
