CHRISTIANITY AND PUBLIC INSTITUTIONS.

TO the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: These words OF your Sundays publication are
among the truest words that were ever penned :;
"The death from starvation of woman In a public
institution makes only Insignificant item In the
great hurly-burly Of more important news. But in
reality it is fact Of profound importance and sgnih-
cancen This is a Christian land but the trouble Is
Of its inhabitants permitting anthropoogca
wisdom to above Holy Writ. They ought
not 10 become so absorbed as to forget or dis
regard the welfare of their follow creatures
We ought in the words OF The Tribune, TO be
striving 10 fTfuse the spirit Of Christ into the IN
stltutons which, whether erected I'm His name or not
ought TO be governed by the principles He died TO
proclaim We are having too much misery In our
Institutions and something must be done to prevent
It's continuance. LESLIE HUNTINGTON.

A COLLECTION OF FASCINATING STORIES.


To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: have received q copy Of The Tribune Monthly
containing the series Of Prize War Stories. Allow me
TO say that have been fascinated by them. In re-
ating the events OF the late it is no exaggeraton
to say that "truth is stranger than fiction" And
yet not the hundredth part of the events Of that won
derful time have been told. The Tribune is doing
something toward preserving the history OF that
period, and IL IS appreciated JOHN L. BENSON.
Mount Morris, CHI, sept. z, 1891.
There are several numbers in the War Story
pamphlet printed by The Tribune. which
worthy of permanent place, both for the man
ner in which they are told and the intense in
terest Of the incidents narrated. Few true stories
of the war have been told, which are more stir
ring and pathetic than Long Sails Last Shot,
while How Gibe Saved the Bridge" Running
Rebel Picket" and What an Oversight, are
among the many exciting and heroic tales which
the reader will carry in memory long after he
has laid the pamphlet away upon theshelf. The
Campaign of a Billy Goat" and "ChlOe's Jug,
both of them stories Of the deepest veracity, and
neither of them disconnected with the tragedy of
war, are both good for hearty laugh. Copies
of the second edition of this pamphlet can be
had at the Business Office of The Tribune)
