HOW TO FIGHT ANARCHY.
College President Advises the Exer-
else of BoundIess Patience.

In the course of a sermon the other
day on the death of President McKin-
ley President &. Il. Nash of Lombard
college spoke as follows. according to
a dispatch To the st. Louis Globe-Dem-
ocrat from Galesburg. ILL.,:
THE proposition to stamp out an
archy by repression, by a system of es-
piOnage, by abridging the right of free
speech, by shutting out immigration is
in defiance of the traditions of the re-
public and of the experience of the
past. Russia. the most rigorous of des-
potisms. has fought anarchy red hand
ed and ruthlessly for decades. yet it is
there that the seed of assassination
finds its most numerous and most des-
perate vOtaries. Germany, only less
autocratic, is almost equally infested.
Great Britain and the United States.
the abOdeS of largest liberty, are freeSt
from the menace. The reason is obvi-
Gus. Violence breeds violence; tyran-
NY and repression multiply arguments
for fOrcible revolution. You cannot
cure. passion by passion. Lynch law,
though so swift and spectacular in its
operation. eXcites the very barbarism
il seeks to oyerawe. An ancient pre-
cept of the Apostle Paul remains the
quintessence of wisdom. You cannot
overcome evil with evil. but you can at
last. in the exercise of boundless pa
thence. overcome evil with good
Liberty is not a failure because it
is now and then abused. The policy
of despotism has nothing 10 teach us
except by it's pathetic collapse. Let us
rather turn our attention TO the remedy
OF conditions which provoke reprisal;
let us beware of nOurishing the seeds
of anarchy through cOnnivance with
the violation of law: let us study to Sc
cure TO all men equal and exact JUS
ticc. and we shall have done all that
lies in human power TO avert such ca
lamities as that for which the whole
world now grieves."

CHANL ER'S LIFE STORY.

His Career.

yOrced Husband and Their stormy
Married Life Characteristics of
the Wealthy CIubman-Somc OF His
Alleged Eccentricities.
John Armstrong Chanler, the divorc-
ed husband of Amelie Rives, now the
Princess Troubetzkoy, who escaped
from Bloomingdale asylum ut White
Plains in November, 1900. and was re-
Gently found living quietly ut Lynch
burg. Va, was confined in the asylum
in February. 1897. The members of his
family in committing him acted, of
course, ON the advice of distinguished
alienists
Mr.. Chanler was committed not be-
cause of any overt act, but because his
relatives feared his mental condition
might result ut any moment in Il VIC
lent outbreak, says the New York Jour
nal. His brothers, his intimates and
his physicians declared that Mr.. Chan
Ter suffered many Authorizations, among
them that he was the reincarnation of
Napoleon and that he could' make Il
great fortune by system of play at
the Monte Carlo gambling tables.
To those of his friends who had not
constantly observed him Mr.. ChanIer
seemed entirely rational He seemed
himself, enthusiastic. visionary, but one
of the most attractive and pleasing of
men. Always of an eXcitable tempera-
ment, he appeared rather more excita-
ble-that was all-after he was placed
i'll the asylum.
DIR. Mcdonald. the we'll known alien
list, said the patient believed his stom
ach was n Leyden jar and that he was
silver box furnished by magnetism.
Yet this man since his escape has
lived quietly among his fellow men,
who have not suspected his sanity.
John Armstrong Chanler is the eldest
of the eight children of the late Pro
feSsor Chanler of Columbia university.
He is the Sreat-grea grandson of the
first John Jacob Aston. founder of the
Astor millions. He was born in New
York, educated at Rugby and Column
bia. has an income of 100000 and be

y man of splendid character, John

of his life and much OF his fortune TO

ship that carried her away. He pur-
sued her on foot and on horseback. All
the time that Chanler was pressing his
suit Amelie Rives WAS taking notes.
She built a story around him and her
self. She thinly disguised the charac-
tiers. and when il was given TO the
world il was called The Quick or the
Dead?" Few books of recent years
have .reated such Il sensation as this
work. When the people of Albemarle
county read it, they stood aghast.
John Armstrong Chanler read The
Quick or the Dead?" If lie thought
that his sweetheart had ruthlessly torn
the curtain from the privacy of his
Iovemaking, he gave no sign. Against
the wishes of his family he married
the authoress on June II, 1883. The
married life of John Armstrong Chan
Ter and his wife was stormy period.
She was given to moods. At first he
was patient; then he was petulant. In
the end he grew violent. They trav-
eled in Europe. 1t may be that his
mental maiady was showing even then.
After three years John Armstrong
Chanler came home to New York one
day alone. His wife remained in Paris,
where she wrote queer lines and paint
ed pictures that were very bad. The
newspapers said that young Chanler
and his wife had separated. The hus-
band kept silent; the wife spoke freely.
They lived apart for five years. the

man without the usual Russian decora-
ton of whiskers, and he painted por-
traits of women He painted the por-
trait of Amelie Rives full length. She
secured divorce forthwith from John
Armstrong Chanler.
After this she came home and spent
some time in her ancestral home in
Virginia. There, in the same surround
ings that had witnessed the woong of
John Armstrong Chanler, the prince
carried on 4 wooinS with such good eff
feet that they were married in Eebru-
ary. 1895.
1t was Just about this time that the
brothers Of John Armstrong Chanler
decided that he had reached n mental
stage demanding atro- ion. Louis Stuy-
vesant Chanler and Winthrop Chanlcr
consulted experts. The experts advised
that the young man be brought to New
York. He was decoyed to New York
and persuaded that it would be best
for him - spend some time in a re-
treat where he might recover his wan
ing mental powers.
From all accounts obtainable he
agreed TO this. but he said later on that
lie did not agree TO go TO Bloomingdale.
He was committed just six days be

More than two years went by. There
grew UP Il GOODNESS between PRINCE
and his wife. 1t became
known in the spring Of 1900 that the
princess would not see her husband.
In August OF 1900 she disappeared
from her home at night and after hours
of searching was found seated ON a
mountain contemplating II scene de-
scribed i'm one of her novels. When
Chanler escaped from Bloomingdale,
she was in Richmond. Va. in scclusion.
