National Sentiment.

Macmilan's Magazine.
The early Christians for a long
time actually despised patriotism
they not only saw and felt that on
this earth they had no abiding city,
but they claimed to owe their allie
glance to a higher power. This
was notion that prevailed until
the growth Of national sentiment
became strong enough to make a
Christian a patriot as we'll. Mac
chiavelli, who had lively appre.
citation, of the pagan virtues, was
one of the first writer's of renown
to exalt patriotism to a high place
among the virtues. In his eyes.
all was fair in war, if not in love:
and he. openly declared his ad-
miration for those who loved their
country better than the safety Of
their souls.
Patriotism was, in short, an old
world virtue which at the time Of
the Renaissance was dragged out Of
its recess and refurnlshed for the
use of the modern world. Eclipsed
for a season, it has shone as bright
again as evel it did in Greece OF
Rome. Many a citizen has since
been cast in the mold of Aristides
or of Regulus. But it is curious
to observe that when national SEN
timent was weak, there was in
some respects greater sense Of
the brotherhood of man than there
is to-day.
Amid all its wars and turmoil,
Europe made a nearer approach to
solidarity and union. Christianity
was a great Welding force. The
dreams of universal church were
in some slight degree realized, and
the Holy Roman Empire was a
stupendous fact which formed a
cementing bond between many
disorganized races.

LOTS OF Cash.
The Santa Fe Authorized to
Borrow 81, 100000
To Pay Up All Of Its
Employees
AND OTHER EXPENS ES.
News That Will Bring Rejoicing
to Thousands.
Judge Foster Issues the Order
Today.
AND OTHER EXPENSES.

Judge c. G. Foster issued an order to-
day giving the receivers Of the Santa Fe
railroad authority to borrow $l,500,OO0
on receivers certificates.
OF this amount $75OOO0 is to pay the
employees of the road and other bills and
aud $750000 to pay taxes of the road and
the expenses of terminal facilities.
It is only a few weeks since the receiv-
ers were given permission to borrow
$250,OO0 on receivers certificates, and
nearly the entire amount was advanced
by one firm. This additional loan Will
swell the receivers debt to $1,75O,0 900.
The receivers certificates upon which
the money is secured, are good invest
ments. They are first lien upon the
railroad property. and take precedence
of all other claims against the com pany,
mortgages included. They draw per
cent interest
None of the receivers Of the Santa Fe
are in the city, Receiver Wilson, who
mas headquarters here, being reported as
in Colorado. General Manager Frey and
Treasurer Wilder are also out Of the city.
Attorney A. A. Hurd was seen. but pro-
fessed entire ignorance Of the transac-
ton.
The order was filed in the United
States circuit court.
It is thought that with the sum to be
secured by the receivers the Santa Fe
will be enabled to pay all wages owed to
employees and Will soon be in good imam
cial condition.

closed the day with speeches. After re-
ferring to local conditions Mr.. Ingalls,
said:
I'VE are passing through critical times;
anarchy is abroad IN this land. Another
condition confronts Us that almost
amounts to civil war. I recently passed
through West Virginia. All along the

enemy's country thirty years ago, and
coming to Chicago l was kept in that
city as IN city held by siege. The
only difference between despotism and a
republic IS that one is a government Of
law and the other IS d government OF per-
sons
There is one class in this country who
would make good strangers among any
nation in the world, a class that has
known no law but bayonets, no means Of
redress but bomb and stiletto. I am not

The bride, Mrs. Lillian Wood, is the
well known spiritualistic medium, and
has a large following in this city In
some respects she is a most remarkable
woman. She is the pastor of spiritu-
alistic congregation which meets on East

dience in a lecture of fully an hour
nicely. Among her other talents she can
improvise poetry that is almost above
criticism in rhyme, metre and sentiment

generally known she is the "Zyesthra"

brother is Ed Bruner, the Santa Fe con-
ductor. Mrs. Wood lives on Jefferson
street near Seventh, and has resided in
Topeka almost from childhood She is
about "a years of age.
Mr.. Snow recently secured a divorce
from his wife, and at the trial Mrs. Snow
in the testimony attempted to connect the
name Of Mrs. Wood with the affair, but
Judge Benson, before whom the case was
tried, objected to the use of Mrs. Woods
name as being irrelevant to the case.

All Kansas City Men to Unite

OMAHA, Aug. 4-Word was received
in Omaha this morning that the South
Omaha packers had recruited a large
force of men at Lincoln to take the place
of the striking butchers and laborers and
thai they will leave Lincoln on special
train this afternoon. The South Omaha
strikers have been notified aud trouble
is expected when the new men arrive at
p. N.
The executive committee of the strik-
ers held a meeting today and the mem-
bers gave it out that word had been re-
ceived from St. Louis and Kansas City
that the men there were ready to go out
at a moments notice. This news came
from the committee sent by the
Omaha men to report on the
situation in those cities. Six
hundred men were taken into the feder-
ated unions of packing house employees.
Chairman Martin of the strikers com
mittee was removed because he is not
employed now in packing house, but is
running a saloon, the strikers claiming
that it was hurting their cause to have d
saloon keeper at the head Of the COM
mittee.
Want a Big Order Like the A. r. U.
KANSAS CITY, Aug. 4.-The packing
house men Of this city are forming a big
labor organization, on lines similar to
those on which the American Railway
union was founded. 1t will take in all
employees of the houses. instead OF having
the men organized by trades. There are a
number of labor organizations among the
men now, but they are classed according
to trades. The object of the new order
is to have every body belong to the same
lodge, and in that way they claim they
will be in a better condition to protect
themselves.
This move was first placed on foot by
the butchers, and it IS said that it
has received the endorsement Of
nearly all the men already. A big
secret meeting was held in the cham =
Der Of commerce building, Thursday
evening, when the question of forming
the organization was fully discussed.
1t appears that the butchers are not sat-
istied with the number Of working
hours and the wages they receive but
they feel that unless all the
men in the various houses belong to one
organ ization they will not receive any
aid in case of a strike. This is what lead
up to the proposed organization Of a new
order.

CONNELLsvILLE. Pa, Aug "A very
strange showing Of the transplanted Gus
toms of the Slav element in this region
was made near Teith last evening. The
victim was young woman who had
violated the moral code that is supposed
to govern these people.
A party of Slavs took her from her
friends, stripped off her clothing, pinion-
ed her hands ana feet, 1ashed her to a
stake and whipped her savagely
over an hour. She was reviled,
tormented and spat upon by anybody W ho
cared to. She was left at the stake and
remained there six hours before anybody
dared to release her. A young man
offered to release some Of her cords and
was beaten of by the mob When the
girl was taken down she could scarcely
move.
