NO WAR BETWEEN JAPAN AND RUSSIA.

! Notwithstanding the alarmist asser-
tions made by certain sensational news
papers which. apparently. are enlisted
on the bear side of the stock market,
there is no ground for believing that a
collision between Japan and Russia Is

Whether it be or be not acceptable IT,

the proposed convention is signed by the
Chinese plenipotentiares. or whether, in
the absence of any written agreement
the Russian troops now stationed in
Manchuria continue to protect the lives
and property of Russian subjects in that
province. and to assure the construction
of the railway connecting Port Arthur
with the trans Siberian line.
That the presence of a large body OF
Russian soldiers in Manchuria should be
viewed with disapproval by the Japanese
is not surprising. but. under the circum-
stances they would be rash to attempt
to translate their feelings into acts.
Even II we admit. what has yet to be

FULFILLMENT.

One held unwritten in his heart through
years
A song for which his earthly Ups We're
mute,
Wherein We're blended prayer and peace
and tears.
Regret and hope which heaven shall
bring to fruit,
A song unsung to mortal harp or Lutte,
Yet in his life the rhythmic fall of days
Love-tuned, the cadenced years, of min
stry
Wrought out before the Lord, a chant Of
praise
Which now his choirs are singing by that
sea
Where many mansions be.
One prayed in vain to paint the vision
Which shown upon his heart by night and
day,
For homely duties in his dwelling pressed
And hungry hearts which would not turn
away,
And cares which still his eager hands
babe stay.
The canvas never knew the pictured Face,
But year by year, while yet the picture
shone,
An angel near him wondering bent to
trace
On his own life the Masters image
grown,
And unto men made known.

ordered. Nothing remained as a means
of correcting the mistake except prayer,
so the people who knew about 1t fell to
praying vigorously that when the stone
reached here it would be as they wanted
it. And 10! when the case was stripped
from it on the morning of the day of its
dedication. the error was found to have
been miraculously corrected and the in
scription appeared as it should be ana
not as ii was cut by the contractor.
The extent to which this silly tale is
believed by the members of the conSre-
cation is, we think, very fair test of
the general intelligence of the sect. To
tell it was an act of great temerity. since
1t is we'll calculated to make those who
told it ridiculous as those who believ-
ed it. Its uselessness for any purpose is
shown by the fact that an attempt to
substantiate it by affidavit or other docu-
mentary evidence would only serve to
convince a skeptical public that there
was collision in lying among those seek
ing to trade upon the prestige of a fake
mitacie for mercenary purposes. People
capable of accepting such a story as evil
dence of anything else than that chris
tan science is neither christian no.:
scientific. but tissue of fraud and de-
such is the kingdom of the bunko steerer
and the purveyor of green goods to the
unsuspecting come on" Should the fact
be established that the inscription on the
stone was not what the building COM
mittee ordered but what they subsequent
ly decided they wanted. one of two con-
customs would be inevitable: either the
stonecutter made a fortunate mistake or
some one had privately instructed him
how to correct the committees error. In
either case the less said about it the bet
ter. Miracles in the domain of psyche
logy are much safer to proclaim, since
they may be doubted without shaking the
faith of the credulous people who think
them matters of personal experience.
Stone cutting. however. is somewhat too
practical an art to lend itself kindly to
the purposes of the miracle -monger in
this age of cold -blooded deductive rea-
sonlng.
If the christian scientists ave already
driven to such expedients to stimulate the
faith of their following their finish is
in sight. A great many people who are

to believe that any amount sof prayer
will correct an error in an inscription cut
in raised letters two inches long in q
block of New Hampshire granite. Faith
is proverbially elastic, but like things ma
terlal it has its elastic limit, and when
stretched beyond that point it takes

taken for a permanent sitting in the
church where such practices are permit

Celebration is Held at Kemper Hall to
Revere The Memories OF The
Founders of The School,
BISHOP NICHOLSON WAS PRESENT
Rev. Charles L. Mallory, of st, Matthew S
Church, breaches the Annual Com
memoration Dav Sermon.

Friday was great day at kempe1
Hall. as it is the day set apart for cele'
bration of Commemorative day. The
holiday is one Of the most interesting
of the year at the school and many OF
the former Kemper Hall girls and as
sociate Sisters of st. Mary came to
Kenosha to honor the memory of the
founders and to take part in the re-
union which followed the exercises
this afternoon.
The exercises of the day were of a
very solemn nature. At z O'Clock a
call Eucharist was celebrated in ST.
Peters Chapel by the Rev. Mr..
Maryon. This was followed by the
regular founders day service, which
was held at the Chapel at half-past ten
O'Clock. Bishop I. L. Nicholson, at
tended by his Chaplain, the Rev.
Frank Sanborn, of Milwaukee, was
present and had charge of the an
nua1 service. The Founders day SER
mon was preached by the Rev. Charles
T.. Mallory, Dean of the Milwaukee
diocese and Rector of ST. Matthew's
church. Several other we'll known
ministers from different parts Of the
State were present and took part in
the services.
Following the celebration at the
chapel, the annual flower parade was
held and the young ladies of the school
marched about the buildings singing
the Kemper Hall Commemoration ode
and draping with flowers the pictures
of the men who had assisted in MAX
ing Kemper Hall great institution
for good.
Among the men who were honored
by the young ladies were Bishop Ar
mitage and Bishop Kemper, the two
founders of the school, and the late
Peter Hubbel, of Philadelphia, who
has given literally to the support OF
the school. The pictures of Bishop
Welles and Bishop knight, the two de-
ceased Bishops of the Milwaukee do
cese, were also beautifully decorated
with wreaths and flowers as were the
portraits of Rev. Mr.. Lance. and Rev.
Mr.. Draper, the two deceased chapla1ns
of the school.
After these ceremonies were over, a
luncheon was served at Arnitage Hall
at which large number of the friends
of Kemper Hall were present.
The celebration of the day closed in
the evening when the Kemper Hall
Dramatic club gave an Operetta
which was followed by an informal
dancing party.
In honor of the annual celebration
the buildings at the Hall were resp1en-
dent in decorations of flowers and
ferns and the cold weather seemed to
place no restraint on the celebration.
During the afternoon an annual re-
union of the Associate Sisters of ST.
Mary was held and many of the Asso-
ciate Sisters from other cities were
present.

THE MOI we hear of the private
character of Richard Mansfield, the
less anxiety we feel lest the future
may exa1t him upon pinnacle and
worship him as an idol. The mere
fact that he has made more or less of
success, according to the critic, of the
portrayal of the character of Henry V,
does not seem in the popular mind
sufficient to justify his assuming the
prerogatives and privileges of that
royal English rascal. If there had
been such things as steam trains in
the days of Henry, it is not unlikely
that he would have enjoyed turning
the whole system topsy-turvy to suit
his within, and it is very conceivable
that he would treat his subordinates
like a pack of hounds, but this rehec-
ton will scarcely mitigate general
censure of Mr.. Mansfield for derang-
ing the whole schedule of big rail
road line to accommodate his private
car, nor elicit popular sympathy,
should one of his 'supers" resent some
of his assumed royal roughness in a
way to render it necessary for Richard
to emulate the facial improvement
methods recently inaugurated by the
Jersey Lily.
