To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
We would whisper in the ear of those
women who are seeking to destroy men s
respect for women that men do not appre-
ciate too much laXfty either in manners, or
principle, accorded by some women, as II
detracts from their maniness. The effort
now being made to induce men to discard
their coats is a movement calculated to de-
feat this object. movement which. IL en-
couraged, is the beginning of masculine
decadence. and retrograding from the civ
ilized customs of decent society. We &C
knowledge the heat is, and has been. most
oppressive, woman suffering equally with
man, as her shirt waist, so constantly al
luded to, is but the outer covering OF sew
eral layers Of garments. The fashion OF
their wear was not inaugurated to protect
them from sultry weather. but from q love
of change. Women like change ana econo-
N.Y. and the freq Ient comfort OF fresh
Numbered clothing. The neglige shirt for
men Is not what men in office require, for
to be neat and effective the collar and tie
must be worn, and the changes required
would be costly. The coat of few ounces
weight has no such objection. and covers
the unseemly suspenders, the soiled shirt
and the surrounding atmosphere Is less OF.
fensive and more sanitary. The widest
stretch Of the imagination cannot accept as
a pleasing spectacle men in shirt sleeves
bare arms and necks, barred to the limit
and dependent women have only to endure
in silence.
The plea is put forward to excuse men
from wearing coats and Sitting In shirt
sleeves that man has graciously accepted
self in all public pursuits We smile in
creduously at this announcement. Innova-
tons against the proprieties and social
amenities of life are apt to lead to ex-
eesses In the license and liberty granted
We are old-fashionAd enough to believe
that mans greatest and highest respect is
for womanly women, who are not striving
to reverse all the natural relations Of life
and court the dismal failure of usurpinG q
mans position. The advanced idea Of wo-
mans progress in this age is the most
lamentable failure of home training, so ap-
parent in the rudeness and discourtesy Of
young men and women, the latter particu-
larly, with whom We come in contact every
day. We have faith that the more refined
American womanhood will exact. and re-
ceive. the manly. courteous respect Of true
men and gentlemen. and the observance Of
the decencies Of civilized life. Turn those
shirt-waisted young men loose upon the

An Irish Poets Protest.

Most Irishmen will be pleased and in

wrote "Who Fears to Speak of 'oS?" in
his youth has not forgotten his earlier
enthusiasm for liberty, says the Dublin
Freeman's Journal. DR.. Ingram has
written the following sonnet on the
present war, and it will appear in the
volume of poems he is about to publish
The sonnet is entitled $780," and was
written early in the year:
Farewell, old yearl unhappy ninety
nine!
No personal cause have to hate thy
name;
While thou vert here to me no suffering
came,
No bright young life reared at this
hearth of mine
At call of duty joined the battle line.
I mourn the public loss, the public
shame
The blot thou left'st upon our country's
tame
On history's page this record will be
thine
That vain man, by England's evil fate,
Clothed with brief power to guide and
wound the state,
By mingling serpent guile and menace
rude,
Goaded patient people into war,
And made our good Victoria's evening
star
Look on a surging sea of brothers
blood"

Heroism of the Boers.

Webster Davis, the distinguished re-
publican orator and statesman who
steps out OF McKinleys cabinet to
cspousc the cause of the Bocrs, held 4
great meeting in Washington recently
which was attended by many con-
grcssmcn and other high officials. Mr.
Davis has just returned from visit to
South Africa, and his description OF
what he learned i'll that country was in
tcnscly interesting and sensational.
Mr. Davis described the storming OF
Spion's Kop by the Bocrs after the
British had occupied it, and his own
visit to the battlefield seven days later.
"Wlcn the fight began" he said, "a
giant Boer, in the prime of strength and
manhood, was seen carrying a small
Boer flag; in a short time he fell to rise
no more. Then an old white haired vet
cran picked up the fallen banner and
waving it, urged his comrades on
With flowing hair and flashing eyes the
old man rushed on, but suddenly shell
laid him low; ere the little flag touched
the ground, however, barcfooted lad
only thirteen years OF age, who had been
fighting in his shirtslecvcs, lcaped like
a panther to the old mans side and,
snatching the flag from his grandfath-
er's ncrveless hand, raised it aloft and
pushed on. A mighty shout arose from
the Beers as they saw the gallant deed,
and with renewed courage they made
fearful charge; following the flag they
rushed like an avalanche over the Brit
ish trenches and Spion's Kop was won. /"

one from the most ignorant, was consid-
cred able to interpret the Bible. This
was directly against reason and revela-
ton, and the nineteenth century has
been reaping the harvest OF unbelief re-
garding the Bible the seeds OF which
were sown in the early part of the six
teenth.
The attitude of the Catholic church
toward the Bible in the close of the
nineteenth century is clearly explained
by our great Pontif in his admirable
letter on "The Study of the Scrip
tures." He first unmasks the hypocrisy
OF those men who outwardly still claim
to be Christian while attacking the BIZ
bic. ut is absolutely wrong" con-
cludes the Pope's letter, ito narrow in
spiration to certain parts OF our Holy
Scriptures or to admit that our sacred
writer's have erred. Those who admit
inspiration only in things OF faith and
OF morals, and in nothing beyond, can
not be tolerated"
What surprises us beyond measure is
that our Protestant brethren, though
now protesting that the Bible contains
many errors, falsehoods and myths, are
still shipping carloads Of Bibles to for
eign nations, and gauging by this me-
chanical method the spread OF Chris.
tianity. Surely it is time for such a
farce to stop. Will not all thinking men
and women agree that it is absolutely
wrong to scatter among these people a
book containing falsehoods, errors,
without giving them the key to discover
the errors?
Would not sound Judgment first de-
clare that the Book be first purgcd OF
its errors? That revised, condensed
Bible, containing the Word of God be
sent to them?
The remark, recently made by the
president of the Philippine commission
to Protestant societies thinking Of send
ing missionaries to our new possessions
is pitiable in the extreme. He begs
them to agree OIL some points OF doc
trinc, and insists that all Protestant
missionaries shall teach the same thing,
SO as not to confuse the simple people
But, as has been truly said, if Protcs-
tants can all agree on some points of
teaching, why not have the same unani-
nous teaching for their home consump-
ton as we'll as for their export trade?
A request similar to the above should
be made on all Bible societies. Before
shipping the Bible to the heather, let
them by all means print on the hyleaf
which parts of the Bible are true, which
false.
The Catholic church teaches that the
entire Bible is true, that this church
has divine commission, but that COM
mission was not GO and scatter BIZ
bles," but "Go and teach," and that
the matter to be taught was also speci-
fed. Christ's doctrine was not to be
narrowed down to few selected points,
but all His doctrine was to be taught.
Teaching them to observe all things"
so runs the divine charter Of the church,
Whatsoever have commanded you."
