which were painfully apparent on the
occasion. A number of people reserve
the right to Come late. ard no matter

to seek their seats. And if, as in this
case, controversy arises over seats,
then large share of the audience must
have their attention distracted. Again,
the small boy is too much in evidence on

PRESS AND PEOPLE.

In his entertaining speech at the dinner
of the Press club Mr. Depew expressed,
telligently appreciatiVe view of the
power, the functions and the character of
the press in this country. But in at
tempting to define its limitations he said
the public is with it, And in fllustra-
ton of his meaning he remarked that
though "the newspapers had howled
people got hold of the facts and believed
them that Schieren became mayor of
New York.
newspaper is powerless without the
public But is it not equally true that
the public would be powerless without
the newspaper? Who put the public in
overthrow of the corrupt rings in Brook
lyn and in this city? Or. ParhhurSt
preached to a thousand people every
Sunday. But the World spoke to half "a
a half, counting all its readers. The in
vestigation by the Le1ow committee was
upon lines which The World and other
newspapers. had clearly, indicated in ex-
ruption. But for the reports of the
testimony in the press and its elucida-
ton and enforcement of them editorlally
far beyond the little room in which the
hearings were held.
Mr.. Depew is correct in saying that
"the facts must be all right'-the cause
iust-before a newspaper can do great
things in seeking to stop corruption, to
correct evils, to remedy abuses and Sc
cure Justice. But when IT is right. as
the World aims always to be. 1t is pretty
certain to have the people with it.

The Great African Explorer No

Men who knew Henry III. Stanley When

surprised at the early passing of the

an article came from Stanley to New

a publisher. This seems very strange
when one considers that it is only three
years ago when one of the ScribnerS
hastily packed his Valise and went to
Cairo, in Egypt, to head off other pub
fishers and secure the American rights
to Stanley's book. He received fabul-

of the book.
Then he came here and lectured and
added thousands of dollars TO his re

government never surrenders It's
