A GREAT OPPORTUNITY.

The productions by John B. Koehne
now being delivered at Dwight Place
church every night are among the
most striking in matter and oratory
ever given in the city of New Haven.
/ Many have declared they never heard
their equal for thrilling description and
stimulating thought, and not word
spoken in praise of him before he came
was extravagant. Tonight (Wednes-
day) the subject is 1.-The Reformation, !"
and the place and peculiar part of Lu-
Their, Knox Calvin and Wesley in this
great movement will be sketched.
Thursday night mastery grafton on
"Ecce Homo a reply to modern scep-
ticism, should be heard by every man,
certainly every man who ever heard
Robert Ingersoll on the other side. AS
a popular platform speaker he well
represents the truth, yet in form and
expression catches the assent of the
careless as the ordinary speaker on
such a theme can never do.
Friday night his Grafton on the New
Aristocracy. or the Rise Of the Com
mon People" was for years given on a
lecture bureau platform at 500 a night
All these discussions are free as far
as admission is concerned an Offering
of ten cents being expected as each
person goes out The Mems Bible class
are free to assert no other church or
society has offered to the public at any
price such an opportunity as this now
to be enjoyed at Dwight Place church
night after night, for almost nothing.
Last might in striking metaphor and
transparent argument Mr. Koehne
showed the mental and moral world of
the apostolic men and the power of that
strange faith which struck it through
with the light OK sun that knows no

TIE FAIR OF ALL NATIONS
SOMETHING ABOUT THE SCOTTISH
BOOTH.

Committee Are Busy Porfecting Ar
engagements and Hope to Make the
Booth One of the Most Successful In
ofthe Features.
The Scottish women who will have
charge Of the booth which will repre-
sent Bonnie Scotland at the great char
ity fair of all nations, which opens at
the armory next Wednesday, are more
! than hustling these days in order that
the Scottish booth may be able to not
only hold it's own with the other ma
lions but If possible to excel them.
Handicapped by being called in to take
charge of this department at the eev-
enth hour they have shown a spirit
that is commendable and one which
will without a doubt end in a success
that will astonish their most sanguine
expectations. Each and every one OF
| the twenty ladies that comprise the
| committee are sparing neither time, Ia
| Dor or money in order that the booth
will be q credit to the country which
it VIII represent. Their appeal for help
has been most spontaneous and We'd

| mission of those territories as states in
| the Union. BY the treaties of cesslon
with France and Spain by which they
were acquired, 1t was agreed that "the
inhabitants of the ceded territories
should be incorporated into the states
of the Union" In the case of the Phil
ippines there Ia no such stipulation In
the treaty with Spain, and there Is not
the slightest expectation or pretence
that they will ever be admitted as a
state. They are avowedly to be held
forever in state Of vassalage under
such government as congress may see
fit to establish. AS we have already
said, some form Of Imperialism is una
voidable over new possessions in their
transition state, just as military gov
ernments were necessary in the south
ern states at the close OF the civil war.
But the difference between imperialism
which is to end at a fixed, definite and
early period in full statehood, and that
which is TO be continued indefinitely at
the will of the ruling power, is as clear
and as wide as the difference between
parental authority and that Of the mas
ter over his slave. In the one case ito
exercise is regulated and controlled by
the anticipa ton of coming manhood
and future equality in the family; In
the other, however benevolent it may be
in its inception or intent it must inevi-
ably in time become perverted for the
benefit of the master, and is sure to be
attended sooner or later with injustice
and abuse. The tendency of irrespon-
sble power is, like a dry rot, to degene-
rate the moral fiber of the individuals
and of the nations that exercise it.
In the foregoing we have drawn
parallel between the political situation
of 1850 and 1900 We might go farther
back and call UP the state of public
sentiment and parties in England in
1775 with regard to American affairs.
Then the overwhelming preponderance
of feeling in parliament and among the
people, especially among the CONNER
cial and manufacturing classes, was
against the pretensions Of America, and
the determination was settled to keep
the colonies in state of dependency
ON England for the glory, power and
wealth Of the mother country. The few,
question the justice and@wisdom of this
policy were branded as "disloyal,"
TRAITORS little Englishmen' and
"worshippers of Mr.. Washington" 1t
was vehemently asserted that only
small proportion of the Americans SYM
pathized with the rebellion; that the
disaffection there was kept alive by the
speeches of Pitt, Burke and Barre, and
that as soon as the elections should be
over and the ministry sustained by
substantial majority the whole rebellion
would collapse. The result by no
means justified these assurances 1t
turned out in the end that the few were
in the right and the many in the
wrong. Had the British government
