Not Word of the. Monroe Docrrlne VIII Be
Repealed.

hcpe&kcu
Guillsrmo de Castro, Minister of JUS
ber of Success, says:
President RoeseYelt's strong adher-
ence to the Monroe Dostrine is something
that should be steadily kept before the
public, for that policy promises to remain
powerful factor in the world for some
time to come. The single nation that
does not take kindly to the new Presi-
dents ideas on this subject is Germany.
Ii Is evident that the German Emperor
has taken alarm at the expansion Of the
United States. Whether he has designs
upon Brazil, which he wants as field
for German colonization; or because he
merely wishes to have a coaling station
IN Venezuela; or for the reason that his
ambition takes some other form. there
seems to be no doubt that there is in the
air sense of coming antagenism between
America and Germany. Americans dislike
war; they are advocates of peace; but, to
a man, they now declare that Uncle
Som would spend his last dollar rather
than allow any European nation to annex
even q square foot of territory in either
Central or South America. The old per-
vading sense of the threatening pressure
of American industrial competition deep
ems the impression that the Old World
and the New World will, before long,
come into more or less violent collision.
1t is to be greatly hoped that the conflict
will result in a battle of the master think
ers of the world rather than in a battle
of the master war Generals. We have
grown wise enough to understand that no
lessons can be learned from war. In the
event of an armed struggle of any kind,
il seems that the one country that could
not remain neutral-would be England. The
German Emperor has said that the ex-
pected attack will first be directed against
England, and that his country will OBJ
ligiDgly go to the rescue. If SO, netting
could be worse for the interests Of China,
Japan, Australia and South America
countries that are practically fed by the
United States. If Europe and America
must fight, I believe that the majority
of the countries win be American rather
than European"

How the Presidents Spent Thanksgiving.
(By Thomas L. Pendel, in Golfers
N-eekly)

My own memories of Thanksgiving at
the White House extend back 10 Lin
coins time. | was appointed TO my place
in this home of Presidents in December,
1864, and as | had been acting as body
guard to President Lincoln for two months
prior to my appointment, am able TO
recall 81 White House Thanksgiving
Days. l have, therefore, known two
other just such Thanksgiving Days as
the present one-the one in the year OF
Lmeoln's assassination, the other in the
year Garfield was shot. Sorrow still per-
vaded the land On Thanksgiving, 1865,
even though our beloved President had
breathed his last the preceding April.
Garfield died Sept. 10, 1881, the same
month and in the same week as William
Mckinley in the present year. Both Of
these Thanksgiving Days were observed
in the same quiet fashion with the same
dignity of sorrow as will characterize the
day at the White House this yeaf.
Besides the three martyred Presidents,
the finger of Death, since my appoint
ment, has toaehed two other persons with
in the White House walls. One was little
Willie Lincoln. the favorite son of Presi-
dent Lincoln. How often | watched Mr..
Lincoln carrying little Willie on his back,
playing horse" and loudly ha-ha-ing up
the old-fashioned staircase which was a
few years ago torn away to make room
for an elevator. And when that gay little
life passed beyond, | saw the strong body
of President Lincoln rent with grief, and
ever after that-he had only few months
longer to live-I could see that the tears
We're near the surface. The other death
within the White House walls was that
of MIR. Allen, the Minister from Hawaii,
while attending President Arthur's New
Years reception.
Having been in the White House on
Day for 81 years, from Lin
coin to q hope) Roosevelt, recall how
the day was spent by 10 different Presi-
dents. All, of course, went to church in
the morning-Lincoln, johnson, Grant,
Hayes and Mckinley to the Methodist
Church, Garfield tc the Disciples, Arthur
to the Episcopal, and Cleveland and Har-
rison to the Presbyterian. All these Pres
idents, with the single exception of Mr..
Hayes, spent the day informally with
their families, entertaining only one or
two personal friends at dinner. LII.
Hayes. always fond Of entertaining, ate
dinner with all those con-
nected with the White House. Secre-

Cab Service in Germany.
(NfcClure's Fortnightlr.l

The whole cab service of Germany IS
regulated in a way to make the American
enyious of German institutions. In most
cities a large proportion of the cabs are
provided with taxameters"-iittled dials
placed in front of the seat and SO ar
ranged that they indicate just how much
the passenger owes at any given time
For instance, when you take a cab in
Berlin the indicator shows a charge of
80 pfennings (12 cents as soen as you
take your seat, and as you drive the fig
ures change, 10 pfeRniEgs at a time, and
when you are ready to stop you pay the
sum indicated by the dial, no more no
less. Thus there Is no chance for extor-
tion on the part of the cabman, and no
disagreement as to charges, a feature Of
disagreeable prominence In London and
Paris. And it may be said, in passing,
that the charges are generally very low
compared with those in American cities.

A Letter from China.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: The news
of the Presidents assassination and death
filed us with horror. This sudden demise
of a man universally honored and loved,
at the hand Of this villain, passes all hu-
man understanding.
Memorial services were held here, first
in the Town Hall, aud then at the Ameri-
can Blue Lodge (Masonic), and finally at
two or three churches. Ali business was
suspended among Americans on the
Thursday following the Presidents death.
at last our Court has started on its
way eastward. It is generally believed
that it win never get 10 Peking this year,
even IF at all; but that it will pass the
New Year at KaifeEg, in Human.
There is hope Of reform in our country.
The abolition of the old style Of examina-
ton altogether, has had a good effect.
Schools of western methods are being es-
tablished all over the country, and i is
the hope OF intelligent people that these
measures will continue and last.
China viii be sure to be partitiOned II
she does not take brace now. | do not
think she will ever be given another
chance. She has had enough anyway
The American College Club, of which

Yale members at banquet on the Dist

ent some 80 American College graduates
among whom was Mr.. John Goodnow. the
Consul-G eneral. The dinner was quite
elaborate, after which followed suitable
toasts and Yale songs. -Four Chinese
gentlemen, all Yale men of the SOS, were
also present, one of whom made response
to one of the toasts. As a souvenir eaeI

We were. not long in getting into the
boats and showing off. We turned the
boats nose down stream and steered for
the 'Richmond.'
When we got well away from the
ship, Bob TnFEer, who had the bow oar,
turned deadly pale.
He swore that he saw Brick Sirnp-
son jump on the wheel-houss with one
shoulder gone and half of his head shot
away. He stood there, waving his arm
as if he were a windmill. He seemed to
be cheering on the men. Then all of the
lads kliied in action appeared to rally
around him and wait for orders.
Bob says that they stood there min
ute and then the whole gang, with Brick
at their head, rushed down the hatchway
with a noise like that of a heavy wind
whistling through the rigging.
m not telling ye that Bob did OF did
not see all this; am saying, though, that
we mad hardly got away from the ship
afore the Mississippi slowly rose up ont
Of her berth in the mud, and hoated off,
stern foremost, into the middle of the
stream. The Johnnies turned all their
big guns on her, but she didn't mind this
IN the least. She swung slowly out into
the channel, turned the bend, got into po-
sitIon, and then let go her starboard bat
terry gun after gun, til she had given the
Johnnies the full broadside; then there
was bright flash, a terrible roar, and
the Mississippi disappeared from the
river"

Sammy solemnly.

it yourself in the Naval Report"
And the ghosts really fit the rebs p

dead as a hooked mackerel-and being

the deck, and gazed dreamily into the
face of the fuil-orbed moon.
