one Of the letters which l saw, said in
1887: II should not be surprised If
America took the lead out Of our hands.
Mr.. o. e. Greening, one Of the closest liv

be slow to take root in America, but once
started, it will develop into forms far
greater than anything here" Mr. George
Jacob Holyoake made an interesting sug
gestiOn: "The churches" he said, may
make cooperation go in the United
States" Rev. +. d. Maurice pointed out
to the wOrkingmen Of Great Britain that
the one indispensability for the success
of cooperation was mutual confidence.
Certain it Is that cooperation in America
must progress along lines where the
people know each other, in their trades
unions or some other Organization-per-
haps, as Mr.. Holyoake has said, in the
churches-or where they will be forced
together as In village communities. There

Hanna Admits Il.

Cleveland, Nov H-In an interview here,
Senator Hanna said the tariff and revenue
laws would have to be revised to meet ex-
isting conditions.
1.-THE war revenue measure" he said,
must be revised, but we will keep many OK
the original features Of the law; simply be-
cause 1t is now necessary.
"Under the old tariff law we are not
getting very much revenue, because we
are exporting instead Of importing, and
something must be done to meet these
new conditions. We must have new rev.
eEue measure.
80 far as l am concerned, favor putting
a duty on tea and coffee.
1.-THE revenues for the support Of the gov
ernment must be raised in some way, and
the indirect is the best way, according to
my idea. When the people do not realize
that they are paying tax there is no COM
plant.
"Still, 1t will be necessary to retain some
Of the features of the war revenue meas
ures. The tax is now on the people, and in
some instances it is the proper method OF

Mr.. Ward Treats Upon Ii in His
Lecture.
Mr. II. Snowden Ward, a weII-known
Shakespearian authority, and author of
shakespeare Town and Times" and
Shakespeare and Stratford- d-on-Avou,"
lectured before a large audi ence last
night at the Congregational Church. The
lecture was given under the auspices OF
the National Geographic Society, on
Shakespeare at Home" and was Illus
trated by stereopticon views OF Stratford
and the scenes of the great poets home
life.
Mr. Ward spoke of shakespeare's per
sonal history. To realize his life, he said,
one must look at the history OF the country.
In the time of Henry VIII, we find
thousands of English families homeless and
penniless, farmers converting grain land
into sheep farms, and the wholesale e
eviction of small cultiva tors and the seizure
of the holdings by lords OF the manoTs.
There were frequent wars on the Scottish
border, and in the north of England, with
constant plots and rebelIions; largely due
TO tile religious differences between the
Protestants and the Catholics The treach-
cry and cruelty OF each party, as op-
portunity served, enbittered ali hon est
men. and sowed seeds of that religious
hatred. of which these sthl remain, too
plentiful traces. ''Shakespeare's father
was, almost certainly said Mr.. Ward
like most Warwickshire people, secret
Cat hulic,' - and this explains many obscure
points in his history.
when the great poet was baptized in
A pril, 564, his father was prosperous, and
had bee N twice chamberlain Of the borough.
Around his fireside would meet all
the best men of the town; in his house
would be entertained the notable travellers
who passed through Stratforti. and in those
days, when talk by the fireside took the
place of books and ne wspa pers, there were
ample chances for the Young poet to study
men and gather kno wledge.
Shakespeare left home scon after his
marriage. the traditional cause being a
adventure, probably the real
cause being religious differences between
