pastor was very courteous, but gave no
information. The following summer he
told me that one whom he considered
among his Worthiest proteges, widow
and all that, turned out to be d woman
of bad repute, and his people were dis
gusted with charity work. Co-opera-
ton would have saved them. The SAT-
est thing for a church Is to consult
the Associated registry
Cooperation of charities means that
each organization shall conduct we'll
defined lines, Of work, SO that there
shall be no unnecessary duplication of
effort. 1t means also that these Or
ganlzations, together with churches,
conduct joint agency to facilitate CO.
operation, and develop and foster
schemes for ,self5help such as friendly
visiting and provident funds. 1t is not
the province of the joint cooperative
agency to undertake: work which is the
especial function Of any of the several
organizations, nor should any Of the
several organizations pretend to act as
an agent for investigation, or perform
any distinctive duty of the joint
agency The unfortunate will unneces-
sarily suffer unless all the charities
work together. 1t is gratifying to
know that St Paul has laid a founda
ton for most successful cooperation.
Miss Julia G. Lathrop, of Chicago,

ties, spoke of the encouragement the
ST. Paul Associated Charities had given
to similar organizations in other cities.
The true charity was that which was
handled in a scientific manner and aft
er the plans of cooperation as operat-
ed by the st. Paul organization. She
urged the necessity of personal service
in order that the work of caring for
the needy, even with cooperation,
might be successfully carried out.
E. W. Peet, treasurer of the associ
alton, stated that at the last public
meeting the collection netted about So,
but that the expense of the meeting
was far greater than the amount of the
collections. The receipts for last year
showed that contributions were much
larger from Individual subscriptions
than from the Associated Charities.
The total receipts from all sources
amounted to $3,994.O6 and the disburse-
ments to $3,991 CO. He urged that indi-
vidual subscribers give freely to the
fund for the coming year, as without
contributions the work of the associ-
alton could not be made successful.

The terrible tragedy at the Smith
avenue bridge Saturday afternoon,
when Jacob Amos and Henry Bergen
krueger plunged to death in the water
of the river 200 feet below, created a
sensation yesterday throughout the
city Never before has so startling a
double suicide shocked the local public
Men and women have killed themselves
before under horrible circumstances,
companions have died together rather
than face great danger or suffering
and lovers have snuffed out life's spark
to end an existence apart, but the
calmly agreed plan of two men, scarce
ly more to each other than chance ac-
Uuaintances, whose lives and hopes
were at the worst only partially OBJ
scured by the shadows of drink, to seek
death together under such sensational
conditions, and the cool, deliberate
and yet almost frivolous execution OF
the agreement is startling. Friends OF
the dead men were astOunded. Both
were known generally as Of happy
temneraments, and in the case Of
Amos. it is said that his domestic rela-
tions were pleasant with a loving wife
been able to provide comfortably, and
relatives say he had no business diff
culties Bergenkrueger was a merry
Jester about his boarding house,
though at times he had evinc-
ed a melancholy spirit, which,
however, was never seriously con-
sidered by his friends. He was out
of employment it is true, but had the
assurance of a home with his land
lord, Mr.. Miller, as long as he would
accept the latters hospitality Neither
man had ever directly threatened i'm
mediate suicide, though remarks they
were heard to make have assumed sig

the majority of those who knew them
refuse to believe that any of the indi-
rect allusions to death was meant for
more than jest

The Historian Lecky,s Latest work.

Despite the drastic criticisms which
it has received at the hands of John
Morley and other reviewers, the recent
volumes of the historian Lecky on
Democracy and Liberty" must take
rank as a philosophical work of the
highest order. There are, indeed, few
men living whose life studies have so
we'll fitted them to write with authority
upon such a subject as Mr.. Lecky. His
historical studies, land his works upon
European Morals. from Augustus to
Charlemagne,i upon The Rise and
Influence of the Spirit of RatiOnaliSm
in Europe" and his History of Eng
land in the Eighteenth Century" have
all been, as it we're, directly prepara-
tory to just such mastery analyses of
modern democracy as he has made.
Mr.. Lecky is a writer of unusual charm
and the essay upon GibbOn, which he
has written for Charles Dudley War
ner's library =. is an example of his
power to invest subject with that
broadening interest which comes
through wide knowledge and largeness
OF view. No one among living histo-
rians could write with more illuminat-
ing effect CT the author of the monu-
mental Decline and Fall' than he, and
the Interpretive study he has prepared
for the library comes as a real service
to the reading public. 1t is another
striking example Of the policy which
has made Mr. Warmers library what
it is-one of the great achievements of
the century.

The family of Peter Hermes, living

GItire, 156 Rondo street, were badly
frightened at midnight by flames
which suddenly burst from a small
barn in the rear of Hermes'" house.
The barn is close to both dwellings,
and the start gained by the fire led the
occupants to fear that their homes
the household effects were carried out,
but with the arrival of the fire depart
ment, the danger was soon averted
The barn is Immediately adjacent to
the large express barn of the Ballard
Express company, where twenty five
horses were stabbed, and it was at
first thought this barn would also
catch fire. A dozen of the horses were
turned loose before the seeming dan
ger was over. The loss on Hermes'

Fatal Turn,

Dorothy Johnson, the girl so ill at

operation alleged to have been per-
formed by Mrs. Anna Fink, is prac-
tically in the same critical condition
which at first led the physicians to
despair of her recovery. There has
been little or no change since her ILL
ness assumed its most dangerous
form, though the fact that she has
fingered so long, is barely ground for
the hope that she may eventually re-
cover. The hospital authorities will
venture no prognosis, as alarming
