The London Daily News does not
think that there is much to be proud
of in the way the United States field
force in the Philippines captured Agui-
nalio." OF course not. But suppose De
Wet were to be taken in precisely the
same way? What would the British
press think then?
Next to the stubbornness with which
our English cousins hold onto things
which do not belong to them comes the
spirit of holy horror with which they
regard any transaction in peace or war
which has the merit of novelty. They
would not have ensnared Aguinaldo,
but at the first opportunity they will
round up De Wet by fair means or
foul; and when they get him they will
send him to ST. Helena.

was that of a branch of thought not
dependent on law. not to be improved,
rot to be questioned; a matter in which
everything was settled and the only
thing to do was to accept Tradition
the idea of progress in this matter at
all is sufficiently remarkable to arouse
some thought. But 1t has come 20 be
understood within the last hundred
years that. though Gods laws are ini-
mutable. mans thought is not, and that
it is possible, not perhaps to invent new
laws of right, but to understand more
completely and obey more successfully
those which exist In religion, as in
science, the law is there; 1t does not
depend for its existence on the main
tenance of a tradition or the up-spring-
ing of a thinker. When this is fully
recognized, perhaps, we shall have that
union of science and religion which, as
Prof Card says, the philosopher of the
nineteenth century is seeking to effect.
The series of papers here reviewed
has been published by the Harpers in
book form. and those who read them,
for the first or second time. in this col
lection, are likely to be struck by the
unity of thought and of teaching which
seems to run through them, uncon-
scious so far as the authors are con-
cerned but all the more impressive on
that account

BEST SOFT COAL IN THE WORLD
An EngIishnan Says 1t Is Mined In
Virginia.

Ever since was boy | have been re-
minded of the old story about carrying
Goals to Newcastle, whenever 1 per-
formed unnecessary tasks said Richard
Harker. of Newcastie-on-Tyne, England.
in the lobby of the Shoreham. last night.
ITO carry Goals to Newcastle was sup
posed to be as futile n task as trying to
sweep back the waves on the seashore- 1
have lived to see Goals carried to New
man. it grieves me to say the Goals in
question came all the way from America
Within the last few years an enormous
amount of coal has been shipped from
Norfolk. Va, to various parts of Eng
land. Some of it went to Portsmouth. to
the naval station there, and many tons
were sent TO Newcastle. We have better
facilities for handling coal there than any
other place in the United Kingdom. For
many years it has been the centre of the
coal mining industry in our country, and
consequently the arrangements and APP
pliances for shipping fuel to various parts
OF the country are way ahead of those
of other towns.
The coal that comes from the western
portion of the State of Firginia-soft coal.
mean-is the finest fuel for steamships
that is mined anywhere in the world. The
coal seems to produce more steam from
small quantity than any have seen II
is now tlsed extensively on the vessels OF
the British navy. and from what | saw a
week ago in Norfolk and Newport News
| should Judge that the shipment must
amount to millions of tons per year
