NEW YORK. Feb. IA special to the
Herald from Washington says: DR.. Theo-
dore Won Holleben, German ambassador, has
given an authorized interview which may be
regarded as an official statement of the at
titude of Germany. Speaking of immediate
questions, the ambassador said: About the
question of expansion, which has become
such a vital one, L can say that Germany,
at least is not interfering in what is strictly
an affair of the United States. The United
States did not object to our occupation of
Kiao-Chou. Why should we object to the
American occupation of the Philippines. We
have not in the Philippines any more vital
interest than America has in China Since
the United States, although urged to do So

pire, we cannot do a more courteous act
than to follow her example and abstain from
all criticism on her acts in Asiatic waters

the remains Of Mrs. ]. I. Mcclure. wife
of Rev. DR.. Mcclure. the venerable pas
tor Of the First United Presbyterian
church. The services took place at the
family residence on Chapline street, adj
Joining the church with which the de-
ceased had been so long associated.
The attendance of sorrowing friends
and relatives was large. The inter

There were several clergymen as

Rev. Mr.. Llttell made a touching
and beautiful address. HIS text was
the twenty-ninth chapter OF Proverbs
and he said In part: 1.-THE deceased
lived a life OF faith. She lived In cody
simplicity, like a flow Of a deep and
noIseless river whose sources are IN
the living mountain springs. She drew
from the fountain head Of life, the
grace and strength which she shed
forth on the world around her.
ITO her family she was an ahection-
ate mother To her husband true
and loving wife. None knew her better
than they. Her children rise up to call
her blessed. Her husband also praiseth
her. She endeared herself to her friends
and the church.
Hers was a golden autumn. Just as
nature embroIders its shroud on the
borders Of the tomb, so her life took It's
loveliest hues when the autumn years
brought her nearest to the winter OF
the grave. She Is not dead, but Sleep

but are sharers with Him Of immortal

"They live. They shall be fashioned
In forms Of fadeless beauty and glory.
They shall live, body and soul, forever.
They shall, by Gods spirit, be made to
revive and bloom at the last day when
death is swallowed up Of victory! Just
as the faded grass revives, and wither-
ed flowers re.bloom In the morning
dew after the hot winds have passed
over them. Be comforted then, for she
sleepeth in peace"
