Reasons For Caution,

TEe president adds that there gre many reasonS for caution iii dealing with corporations He says:
 The same business conditions which have produced tie great aggreeatiotfs of corporate and individual wealth have made them very potent factors in international commercial competition. Moreover. it cannot too often be pointed out that to strike with ignorant violence at the interests of one set of men almost inevitably endansers the interests of all. The fundamental rule ill OUT national life-the rule wEell Gn- dcrlics al othcrs-is that, on the whole and in the long run, we shall go up CT down togethe:.
 The mechanism of modern business is so delicate that extreme care must be taken not to interfere with it in spirit et rssllnesS or ignorance. In dealing with business interests. for the government to undertake by crude and i,! considered legislation to do what may turn cut to be bad, would be to inc,l. the risk of such farreach- ing national disaster that it would be preferable ta undertake nothing at all. The men wl1o demand tue impossible or the undesirable serve as the allies of the forces with which they are nom- inally at War, for they hamper those who would endeavor to find out ill ra- tional fashion what the wrongs really are and to what extent and in what manner it is practicable to apply reme fIjpc

How to Correct the Evils.

All this is true. and yet it is also true that there arc real and grave evils, one of the chief being overcapitaliza- tion because of it's many baleful con- sequences, and resolute and practical effort must be made to correct these evils

It is no limitation upon property rights or freedom of contract 10 re- quire that when men receive from @eH- crnmcnt the privilege of doing busi- ness under corporate form, which frees them from individual responsibility and enables them to call into their en- tcrrlises the capital of the public. they shall do so upon absolutely truthful representations as to the value of the property in which the capital is to be invested. Corporations engaged ill in- terState commerce should be regulated if they are found to exercise a license working to tie public injury. It should be as much the aim of those who seek for social betterment to rid the busi- ness world of crimes of cunning as to rid the entire body polite of crimes of violence. Great corporations exist only because they are created and safe guarded by our institutions. and it is therefore eur right and our duty to sec that they work in harmony with these institutions.

Publicity the Fir.t Essential.


 The first essential in determining how to deal with the great industrial combinations is knowledge of the facts publicity. In the interest of the pub- lie the government should have the right to inspect and examine the work ingS of tie great corporations engaged in interstate business. Publicity is the only sure renledy which we can now invoke. What further remedies are needed in the way of governmental regulation or taxation can only be de- termincd after publicity has been ob- taincd by process of law and in the course of administration. The first requisite is Knowledge, full and com plcte-knoWledge which may be made public to he world.
 Artificial bodies such as corporations and joint stock or other associations, depending upon any statutory law for their existence or privileges should be subject to proper governmental super vision. and full and accurate informa- tion aS 10 their operations should be made public regularly at reasonable intervals
 The large corporations. commonly called trusts, though organized i'll one state, always do business in many states, often doing very little business i'll the state where they are incorpo- rated. There is utter lack of uniform ity in the state laws about them, and, as no state has any exclusive interest in or power over their acts, it has in practice proved impossible to get ade- Quate regulation through state action. Therefore, in the interest of the whole people, the nation should, without in- terfcrin. with the power of the states ill the matter itself, also assume power of supervision and regulation over all corporations doing an interstate busi- ness.

White For Evening Wear.

Paris will doubtless set the seal of fashion upon white fabrics for evening wear this winter, for every French lady of the higher official classes had an elaborate toilette blanche construct ed for the receptions in connection with the visit of the czar and czarina to Compiegne. And In having thus to turn out a very large number of gowns of different styles the great possibilities of white have been revealed. It Is said by those present at one of these reeep- tions that the effect of all these color less dresses, adorned only with rich laces and In every fabric from satin to mousseline de sole, was most beautiful. It was, of course. In deference to the known preference of the czarina for snowy costumes for women that these salons planes were held. But the result has been so beautiful as a whole and individually the dresses have been such artistic confections that 1t Is not at all unlikely that we shall find this will be the beginning of white craze this win ter Ouida has said that all women should at all times wear white. It Is a view largely shared by the czarina, who never wears any color at night Mingled with silver and gold, white can be made to look richer than any color ever sent forth by the most cunning dyer. It would be interesting to note how many variations could be produced without the aid of color at all.

we take our stanI in the watch tower, and through the glass of inspiration we look off and see whole fleet of ships coming in. That Is the ship of peace, flag with one star of Bethlehem float ing above the top gallants. That Is the ship of the church, mark of salt water high upon the smokestack, showing she has had rough weather, but the Cap tain of Salvation commands her, and all is we'll with her. The ship of heav- en. mightiest craft ever launched. mil lions of passengers waiting for millions more, prophets and apostles and mar tyrs in the cabin, conquerors at the foot of the mast, while from the rig ging hands are waving this way as if they knew us, and we wave back again, for they are ours. They went out from our own households. Ours. Hail, hail! Put off the black and put on the white. Stop tolling the funeral bell and ring the wedding anthem. Shut up the hearse and take the char lot.
 Now the ship comes around the great headland. Soon she will strike the wharf and we will go aboard her. Tears for ships going out. Laughter for ships coming in. Now she touches the wharf. Throw out the blanks. Block not up that gangway with embracing long lost friends, for you will have eternity of reunion. Stand back and give way un- til other millions come aboard her. Farewell to sin! Farewell to struggle! Farewell to sickness! Farewell to death! Blessed are all they who en- ter in through the gates into the city"

She is taking a course on English lit- erature from 1T0o to 1T44. Her in- structor Is Miss Myra Reynolds, an as- sociate professor, who Is so highly es- teemed that one of the faculty men says, Miss Reynolds is the best man In the department"

stiII Hon~ymoonfnx.

It is amusing to hear the remarks of those who saw the czar and czarina at the camp lunches they attended while in France. They behaved like newly married couple at table d'hote, with neither eyes nor ears except for one an- other. She spoke so much to the czar at the Betbeny lunch that NJ. Loubet. who was at her left hand, imagined m old graybeard like himself was de trop and chatted continuously with his other next nelghbor, Mime. Casimlr- Perier.
 Nicholas was aux petits soins. He filled himself the empress glasses when champagne or other wines were hand ed round. Mme. Loubet sat next him, but she showed, by conversing with her other neighbor, that she did not wish to bore him. When he and the empress chatted, the latter looked animated and as if she enjoyed herself. As soon as he spoke to Mme. Loubet the expression of the imperial lady changed, and she gazed without the slightest animation as If absentminded.-Lo Truth.

Cerberfte the Name Given to a Pow
 erfuI Agent Of Destruction.
 Count Sergey de Smollaninoff, who died In Washington a few months ago In poverty. left behind m invention in perfecting which he spent the last few years of his life. IL was high ex' plosiye, to which he gave the name Of cerberite, says the Philadelphia Times, Some Washington business men had become interested In his invention, and recently the new explosive was prac. tically tested. The material used was 50 per cont cerberite, the equivalent of 50 per cent dynamite, made up in tho usual form of cartridges or sticks About 70 pounds were placed in nine deep holes drilled In tough blue sand stone ledge. When all was ready, m electric button was touched. Instantly flames leaped out of the nine holes and with rushing sound an immense body of stone torn from the hillside fell tc the quarry floor.
 Other experiments were made show. Ing that 1t is a safe explosive to handle 1t may be struck with a hammer rubbed with sandpaper, burned in a bright flame without exploding. It car be exploded only by the simultaneous action of three thlngs-flamc, heat and concussion. which fin practice are se. cured by means of n detonatlng cap.
 It is claimed for cerberite that prac tically 1t will not freeze. that water does not affect it nud that it can bt exploded when in direct contact witl water. This was shown recently bs the fact that some of the holes con talned water anywhere from an incl or two to a foot In depth. Cerberit, does not give ofr when exploded nox ious fumes or gases and Is smokeless The new explosive Is made In three forms-liquid. gelatin and powder.

One day I was invited to d.aner with the Count of Enzenberg at the resi- dence of Prince von Bismarck in Der lin.
