Captious Criticism Of the Ledger.

Notwithstanding the P.-I. made u
most notable failure of boycotting all
plays which appeared at Seattle Thea
ter. because its manager refused to
submit to extortion, the Tacoma Let
ger (the srratic journal that Is IN
search of an owner) has followed in its
footsteps and attempted to belittlc the
Nominee" company, simply because
it imagines it has II grievance against
Mr.. Hielig. the manager Of the North
western Theatrical Association, for his
acknowledged inability to keep the
L" Bostonians" from cancelling their
date at Tacoma. Mr.. H. showed by
publication of his correspondence with
the management, in the Neus, that he
had made every effort to have that
company keep its appointment, and
the Ledger's "roast" turned out to be
very unsavory stew when the facts
were made known. 1t seems, however,
that it was literally wound up for
the Queen of SPAIN" and continues
its abuse without rhyme or reason.
The Pr and the Oregonian gave very
laudatory opinions of the same COM
pany and play, and our own theater
patrons expressed the most unqualified
satisfaction with the performance
given by them in Olympia Theater, on
the Sth inst. That should settle the
matter on its merits, even though it
may leave the Ledger in the unenvia-
BILE position of having been influenced
by malice solely, in its structures on
the performance in Tacoma. The
query arises, When will the big" pa
pers learn that they cannot afford to
be unjust in such matters? Every in
stance like this, in which it is clearly
shown that they have been influenced
by unfair motives, lessons the respect
in which they are held as possible
moulders of public opinion.

SACRILIGIOUs ACT OF SCOFFERs.-
Some miscreant in st. Rose Catholic
Church, at Meriden, Conn.,, lately put
q powerful acid in the ashes used at
the Ash Wednesday night service, into
which the priests dipped their fingers
before performing the rites, ono OF
which was tracing the form of cross
on the forehead. A few hours later
those who were thus treated com.
planned of a burning sensation, and
not long afterward severe blisters were
noticeable on their foreheads. The
red wounds burned deeper and deeper,
and invariably took the shape of the
cross, as marked by the priests. In
some instances the skin had turned 20
a bright red, and where hats had been
removed during the ceremony and la
ter replaced the sweat-bands were
eaten through.

Religion Of a Great Thinker.

DIR. Il. +. Johonnot lately preached
in Unity Church, Chicago, upon Re-
ligion Of a Great Thinker-Dr. James
Martineau," and attributed to that
eminent philosopher a much iirmer
and broader belief in a life beyond the
grave and the personality of Deity
than is generally entertained by So
/ called free-thinkers of modern times
Dr. Martineau died short time ago
and it was probably this which has
led to review of his liie.work and al
analysis of his creed. He occupied
during his maturer years, prominent
position as theologian and philoso
pher, being the representative on one
hand OF Unitarian as opposed to Trim
itarian orthodoxy, and on the other o.
Thcism and Spiritualism, as opposed
to the materialistic tendencies of the
age.
DR.. Martineau was born in Norwich
England, about 1906. He became a
professor Of moral and metaphysical
philosophy in Manchester College
London, in 1853. Among his princi
pal works are Rationale of Religious
Inquiry" published in 1889, CEN
deavors after the Christian Life
1913, and Studies of Christianity
1913.
In this age of skepticism and agnos.
ticism, it is pleasing to encounter a
master-mind which sees enough in
Nature and Natures laws to justify a
belief in Immortality without reli.
ance solely upon faith for its ground.
work.
The Chicago divine in speaking Of
DR.. Martineau and his work, said:
The question is often raised in our day
whether one who is loyal to reason can
believe in God and Immortality. The
hOtiOh huo OOtoiiCo WluC CICuCuCC tlldt
modern thought has quite disprOved
these ideas and that great thinkers NO
longer hold them. DIR. Martineau Of
England, whose recent death attracted
so much attention, was a thinker second
to none in this century, familiar with
the whole course of philosophy and sci.
ence and absolutely loyal to truth. lie
is recognized as the teacher of the teach
ers and preachers of this generation.
What does he have to say upon these
themes? He held that we are com.
PEELED to believe in God as the source
and cause of the universe by the very
constitution of our minds, and that be.
cause the religious Interpretation of the
world is both natural and adequate to
account for it, it must hold till dispos.
sessed by some superior claimant. As
opposed to Spencer, he holds that God
is also movable so far as our capacities
60. He is no mere power or " stream oil
tendency" but is a person, a living God,
of like nature with us and with whom
our spirits can bold communion. In
this personal communion of man with
God and affection for Him lies the very
essence OF religion.

WILL Nor LIVE TO SEE IT A Sue.
cEss.-Geo. Webster, a man who is
awaiting the death penalty in the
county Jail at Spokane, has invented q
perpetual motion device. 1t is based
upon the fact that rapidly revolving
wheel throws off currents OF air from
Its rim. Webster would place fans to
catch the breeze. The fans would
turn and keep up the revolution of the
main wheel. This is but a modifica.
ton of the scheme for q water.wheel
which was to operate a pump for ele.
waiting the water used to keep it going.
1t is safe to say that Webster will not
live to see his theoretical windmill q

Native Talent.

Miss Lillian Miller, OF Seattle, has
lately returned from California, where
she spent two years as member OF
the faculty of King Conservatory, an
institution of high grade. Miss Miller
is making for herself an cnviable repu-

songs were lately sung ut the Clarence
Eddy recital before the Amateur Club
of Chicago, since which she has been
in frequent receipt OF requests from
prominent musical clubs for permits
sion to place her works upon their
programmes.

Now the days have grown to be oil
serviceable length for the common la
borer to do enough work to earn his
subsistence. The man with a salary
is the only individual who can make
"both ends meet" during the short

of daylight may be few, the dark
hours are illunined by the joyous
thought that rain or shine, day or
night, hot or cold, waking or sleeping,
the official salary goes on and on, con-
tinually on, and may be expected to
60 on, until the political craft they
have clambered upon is stranded ON
the shores OF time. Then, let us hope
that the salaried man will find that
official emolument has not wholly in

MCKINLEY AS INTERMEDIARY.-A
Washington dispatch of Monday states
that President Mckinley has been
chosen by Presidents Kruger and
Steyn, as intermediary, to transmit
to Great Britain their terms for a
peaceful settlement OF the Transvaal
trouble and for an immediate cessa-
ton of hostilities. The President con-
scented, and the State Department has
been instructed to transmit the COM
munication to Great Britain. 1t is
doubtful, now that Johnny Bull has
met with victory that he will agree to
anything less than his demands before
the war began, even though the terms
proposed may carry with them a
quasi.endorsemen from his friend Nc
Kinley. England is very much in the
condition that Rabelais describes the
Devil to have been in, when he writes ::
"The Devil was sick. the Devil Monk
would be;

was he"

tervention by other governments will

chat there is no other State in the re.
public where all other forms of VIC.
lence against the person SO seldom oc.
cur, and in no civilized community in
the world where crimes against women
are less frequently committed or more
swiftly or sternly punished" He then
continued:
"From their hardy pioneer ancestors
who laid the foundations of the State
amid scenes of relentless war with saw.
ages, Kentuckians inherited the unwrit.
ten law that gallantry and integrity are
more to be priced than great riches, and
that virtue is the highest ideal of wo-
manhood. But it should never be for.
gotten that homicide, for pecuniary gain,
is a crime which is and ever has been
almost unknown in that commonwealth,
while, be il said to the shame OF the
