MUNIFIcENcE TO woRKINGMEN.

MUNTFICENCE TO WORKING MEN.
Large sums of money have been donated
by municipalities ard individuals in Ger
many for the rational celebrations of the
victories OF 1s7O-'7l, but the best was
that Of Krupp, the famous gun maker of
Essen. He gave one million marks-a
quarter q million dollars-not for monu-
ment; not for fireworks and brass bands,
and festivities generally, but TO the PEN
sion fund Of hi workmcn. That made the
pnncely gii the best of all.
In Tie midst of lie Joyous excitement
over Tie bloody victories OF The PAST MT
krupp's action comes as a PRACTICAL re-
nindcr that peace has its obligations as
wen as war, and that The living must be
cared for as wen as the dead glorified.
There is 10 fault to bc found wita the
quarto centennial Jubilation over the
uuiiicatiOn Of the Fatacrland and the
creal lion Of the empire, albeit the civil
blessings that have sprung from it may
be lost sight of IN eEtausiastic eNploira-
.tion Of the past
Bal tie action OF Nc Krupp emphasizes
the too Oft forgotten fact taat the working
men are The home ard sinew Of tie state,
and that that policy Is The wiscst which
