THE NATIONS BIRTHDAY.

Day that gave nation birth,
Best and greatest OF the earth.
Day when freedom found shrine
Sanctioned by the hand divine.
Day that broke a tyrant's cha 1.
Day whose memory e'er remains
And with each returning year
Brings the thought OF blessings dear
Blessings bought with patriots blood.
Freely shed, sacred flood.
Treasured should they ever be-
In this land of liberty.
Let each starry banner wave,
Symbol of the free and brave.
Let glad acclaims fill the air.
Shout hosannas everywhere.
Other lands are deep in woe,
Stricken by mightier foe.
Cuha cries in accents loud,
Independence OF shroudP
Greece in Christian courage strong
Strives to triumph over wrong.
Europe's nations-shamefu sight,
See the wrong o'erwhelm the right.
Glorious day we celebrate,
Teach US TO recall their fate
And rejoice from day 10 day
That we are not now as they.
May our laws be Just and true,
Giving to each one his due,
Guarding with jealous care
All our heritage so fair.
Free In action, free in speech.
Equal rights belong TO each,
Free to worship, free 10 share
In the laws protecting care.
Glorious Fourth-all hail the dayl-
Ushering in the gentle sway
OF freedom that ne er shall lose
It's potent power till men refused

PAY TOO MUCH ROYALTY.
Queen Group Of Mines Likely to Re-
main Idle.

Queen Group of Mines Likely to Re-
main Idle.
Marquette, Mich, June 22.-The lease
Of the South Buffalo mine has been
surrendered to the Arctic Iron COM
pany and Mrs. Mary Breitung Kauf
man of Marquette, the joint owners Of
the fee. The South Buffalo is one of
the Queen group Of mines, the leases Of
which are held by Corrigan. Mckinney
Il Co. of Cleveland. The leases of the
five mines in the group are uniform and
call for a 40 cent royalty on every ton
of ore mined. AS the product is entire
too high to be paid and allow any prof
il for the operators. During 1897 the
royalty was reduced to 221a cents per
ton. by stipulation, for the season
This year, owing to a quarrel between
the fee owners and the municipal au-
thorities at Negaunee, the owners of
the ground refused TO concede anything
from the terms of the leases, and de-
manded their full pound of flesh. AS
it was manifestly impossible to work
the mines and pay 40 cents royalty up
on every ton of product. the Queen
group is still idle and will probably re-
main so for the season, or until some
arrangement is made by which the
mines can be worked without entaiing
an actual loss upon every ton Of ore
taken from the ground.

Treoertck the Great ano the sewfsb Convert

An interesting account is given of Steblick mayor
of Nicola, Upper Silesia, who, in the year 1879,
turned from the Catholic to Jewish religion He was
then forty-six years of age. To avoid embarrass
ment he transferred all his property to his son, then
living in Sohrau He tried by the court for his
conversion, but appealed from it's unfavorabe de-
cision to the king-Frederick the Great, of Prussia
gave the following decision ut does not become the
human Judge to interfere in affairs of man against
his Cod If said Steblick has offended the Divine
Majesty by his silly STEP then He will certainly alot
to him the just punishment, but have right to
interpose into the will of God by our limited judg
ment Coercion, if successful may member

will adhere to the religion of his conviction"
The king further ordered that the community was
to pay the costs of the trial and as from accompany
ing documents it appeared that Steblick faith

many good services to the city, he to be exempt
ed from all exceptional taxes. Further, the king
stated, his express wish, that Steblick in future
shall be designated ''new Jew"

with his son; acquired talmudical knowledge
and sang daily Hebrew psalms accompanied by the

1t ought not to be mooted question as to what
Church Jesus would join the impossible realized,
and he again to come to earth And yet this ques-
ton is frequently discussed and debated in Christian
churches. No less person than Lyman Abbott
touched upon this subject in a sermon delivered by
him at Plymouth Church on April 18th. He claimed
" that if Christ were here to-day he would be
Der of the church., and, strange to say in reply to
the question: "What church," he answered, II do
not know" He continues by affirming: II rather
think hewoud remain member OF whatever church
he happened to be born in. He would care very lit
tie about the distinctions that separate churches

Baptist or Methodist, or an Episcopalian, or
Roman Catholic, Quaker" Lyman Abbott
might have gone and cited the rest of the 143
sects in Christendom, and he would have been just
as wide of the mark as to what church Jesus would
be member Of as he is in regard to the few he
has mentioned. He is right when he says that Jesus
"woud remain member Of the church he happened
to be born in" What is that church? The Jewish

churches of Christendom to-day, with their creeds

Jesus was Jew of the Jews. His whole thought
was jewish His whole life was Jewish to the core
He had no intention of starting religion. 1t
was Paul who, making compromise between Pa
gansm and Jewish thought, became the founder of
dogmatc Christianity-a something which has no
thing in common with the religion which Jesus pro-
mulgated. He preached AMI taught Judaism pure
and simple. When addressed as Good Master he
replied, call not good there is but good and
that is God. When asked what should one do to in

Old Testament: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God

This Way.
Denver News special:
Fort Worth, Tex, March ELI l.
Hirshfeld, secretary of the Texas-Colo.
RADIO Chautauqua, left tonight for Denve,
Colo, via Kansas City. Mr.. Hirshfeld
will reach Denver Thursday night.
He goes to Colorado vested with au.
thority to determine on the location of
the Chautauqua.
The propositions from Denver, Colo
RADIO Springs, Boulder. Perry Park and
Salida are to be considered by Secretary
Hirshfeld on his arrival in Denver.
Some very satisfactory propositions have
been offered for the location of the Chau-
tauqua, but thus far it is thought that the
chances for location lie between Denver
and Boulder, with possibly chance more
favorable to the latter place.
The list of attractions being booked in
part are: President E. Benjamin An

Black, Edwin L. Parker, Robert Bur-
dette, Rev. Thomas Dixon, Alfred A.
Farland, Professor Louis Favour. Twelve
lectures on household economics, DR..

Negotiations are now pending to secure
I5o picked voices from the great Nor
mon tabernacle at Salt Lake. The musi.
cal festivities will last three days in early
August, and Schumann's lady orchestra
of fourteen pieces will also be secured. in
connection with an orchestra second to
none in the country.
Lieutenant Edward Butts of the United
States army will be director of physical
culture. Mr.. Hirshfeld estimates that
the amusement features and faculty will
cost the Chautauqua over $50, 600 for the
two months session. Henry Watterson
will be the orator 0f the opening day.
