La Shelle's production of 1.-The Bon
ME Brier Bush" is regarded as
one of the features of the coming sea-
son. The play, which will not likely be
seen outside of New York and the larg-
er Eastern cities for some time, is a
drama founded upon the stories of the
Rev. Ian MacLaren. The central Incl
dent in the story is the Transformation
of Lachlan Campbell, a Scotch shep-
herd, who casts off his daughter Flora
for fancied error, and becomes recon-
ciled to her in the end. The leading
role, that of Campbell, is assumed by
the veteran actor, J. II. Stoddart, while
the part of Flora Is in the hands of
Miss Irma la Pierre, who attained dis
tinction in the cast of Way Down
East" Flora and young Lord Hay are
welded, despite parental objections on
both sides. While the play is. on the
whole sufficiently conventional to
please, ii has many strong and original
situations. Among these, is the stand
taken by the village minister. who re-
fuses to accede to the demands of big
otry and expel Flora from his church.
With practical Christianity he opposes
the austerity of the elders and deacons,
wins his point. and with it the love of
the girl, who has rejected him because
she believed him to be narrow.

is now question Of diplomacy, which is
solved so far as the threats Of Russia are
concerned. The time was when London
and Liverpool as jobbing centers. practi-
callv controlled the trade of the world.
That trade has practically passed from
Great Britain to the United States. The
balance Of trade in favor OF this country
during the past three years has been lit
t1e over a billion and one-half dollars.
Had the United States not been debtor
country, this amount would have been
added to the surplus gold in this country.
A billion dollars of this has been used in
buying up American securities held
abroad until our railroads, which were
controlled by English capital, are now IN
American hands.
We have now purchased the control over
our own industries. Notwithstanding the
fact that this caused the expectation OF
vast quantities of gold 20 Europe, the bal
ance of trade has been so greatly In excess
of the PAYMENT of such Indebtedness that
the gold reserves of the foreign nations
are decreasing, while the gold reserves OF
our own banks are increasing. Foreign
nations for the first time in history have
come to American banks for their gold.
z If properly handled. this balance OF trade
will increase from year to year. as the
total gold outside of the United States
now in existence is only about three thou.
sand million dollars. if we sellfo gold all
that we sell, and buy for gold all that we
buy,it would take only a few years to
drain the world of its entire gold supply.
England held precisely this position as to
the worlds trade when it demonetlzed
silver and by that action transferred the
control of the worlds finances from the
E Hague to the Thames. AS the United
States now holds this position. she is rap

which ali who subjected themselves to the
dominion of the divine Ruler should be
equal and all should be brothers, human
eyes were dazzled at the prospect, and the
first sight of this splendid liberty was
followed bY period of darkness so intense
that it has always been known in history
as the dark ages.
Then the light of liberty fickered
through the clouds, and some men saw 1t,
and keeping their eyes upon it followed
its beckoning to the western hemisphere,
where the clouds were dispelled and the
full light broke forth, destined to illum1n-
ate the world, never again to be darkened.
Thit was recognized in happy way BY
the people of France, who had groped for
the light and fought for glimpse OF it
until the streets Of Paris ran in blood. 1
thought of this two weeks ago, as sat on
the deck of a steamer and saw the mag
nifcent statue of Liberty, which IN her
gratitude France presented to the nation
which had hewn the way for liberty to
become possible. That statue now adorns
the harbor of New York, holding torch
in its hand to light the way across the
seas, that those in distant climes may
view the light which shines from the
shores Of America. Upon this statue IS
inscribed Liberty enlightens the world. "
IN its hand is the wreath Of peace. 1t en-
lightens the world. not by the clash OF
arms, or the frowns of despotism. but by
the light of liberty. which, when it shines
IN the breasts Of men, causes them to obey
the only communicative given by the
Son of God, THAT ye love one another. !"
