money was forthcoming within a week.
Leicester replied, You ought to get
our sisters and our other brother to
agree to this matter Malcolm said
that he wouldn't ask his brother
Worthington or his sisters to agree to
anything of the kind. He raised his
voice very sharply as he said this to
Leicester, and added:

CHRISTIAN ALTRUlSM
BISHOP sPALDING's SERMON, AT
DETROIT.
THE RIGHT KIND OF CHARITY.
TO DO GOOD TO ENEMIES THE DUTY
OF SOCIETY.

The Real Criminal often the Social
Body Itself Rather Than the Man
or Woman Punished-Reckless and
SenseIess Marriages Condemned.
The Tremendous influence which
Women Can and should Exert.
Training, Not Aims, the Need of the
Thriftless and DeIinquent.
Detroit. Mich June.-Rt. Rev. John
Lancaster Spalding. d. D., Bishop of
Peoria, ILL.,, this afternoon in Light
Guard Armory, delivered the conference
sermon of the twenty-ninth conference
of the National Federation of Correc-
lions and Charities. His subject was
"Altruism and Charity"
Love of self is the radical passion
of human nature" said Bishop Spald-
ing i'll opening. IAN advance is an as
cent from the primitive and superficial
self towards the true self which is born
Of union of the soul with truth. justice
and love. Every worthy form of. in
dividual activity is altruistic. The
money paid is never the equivalent Of
the work done, and the laborer, what
ever he be, must look beyond the price
he gets to the good he does, must inter-
fuse good will and the desire to be of
help, with all he does, and with all he
receives for what he does, or he will
shrivel into something that appears to
be alive, but is really dead"
Continuing. he said:
ITO do good to enemies is now recog-
nized to be the duty of society, not less
than that of individuals. We have
come to understand that the real crimi-
nal is often the social body itself
rather than the man or woman it COR
rupts and then Furnishes Our progress
consists largely in the discovery of
remedies for ignorance and impotence. ="
The bishop referred in strong terms
to improvident marriages. saying;
Reckless and senseless marriages
are an inexhaustive source of evil"
He declared that wedlock was en-
tered into too carelessly and said:
$50 long as this poison fountain re-
mains open, so long will vice and pau
perism continue to breed degradation
and Indebtedness. Homes that are
hells thwart the wisest efforts to re-
form abuses.
WOmnn's Great influence.
He referred to the tremendous in
fluence of women and said:
IF they were more serious, large
minded. intelligent. unselfish and low
ing, three-fourths of the depravity and
sin which make life a curse would dis
appear. The fountain head of social
good or evil, of vice and crime, or of
honor and virtue. is in the home and
the wife and mother make or unmake
the home"
Regarding the right kind of charity,
the bishop said:
THE special vice of the thriftless
and delinquent is heedlessness and
recklessness. We must train them to
forethought. Consideration and atten-
! tiCn and personal influence, not aims
! giving, is the proper means whereby
this may be accomplished. If we would
fave them, we must save them from
| themselves.
1t was announced to-day that the
Executive Committee of the conference
had decided to hold their next annual
meeting at Atlanta, Ga, in May, 1908.

GERMANS COPY OUR GOODS.
THEY PAY Us THE TRIBUTE OF
CLOSE IMITATION.

This Makes Serious Competition for
the Real Articles in German and
other Markets-Neverthele the
Imports of American Goods Are In
creasing-GeOrgia Pine Is Being
Used to RenoVate the Ancient Pal
ace of Charlemagne and American
Machinery and ONCE Furniture
Are in Demand.
Washington. June 1.-The ancient
palace of Charlemagne, in Germany
is being renovated with Georgia pine.
California plums and pears are pre-
ferred in the entire to the formerly
famous fruits from nearby Italy, Ser
via and Bosnia, and American ma
chinery is being used to improve the
waterworks of Aix-le-Chapelle. These
are some of the facts made public in
an interesting extract from CONNER
cial Relations for 1901" made public
by Frederick Emory, chief of the Blu
reau for Foreign Commerce, to-day.
A rather alarming condition brought
out in the publication is the fact that
the Germans are copying American
made articles so closely that the imita-
tons bid fair to make serious inroads
on the sale of the genuine goods, says
the extract
I'm spite of the trade depression
prevailing in Germany, the imports CT
American goods are advancing, ac-
cording to the reports of the consular
officers in that country, especially in
certain lines.
Our furniture is popular, particular
ly that meant for office use. Our chairs
and desks, says Consul E. A. Man of
Breslau, are kept in stock by the deal
ers of that city. Other officers men
ton the same articles, but Consul E.
II. Osmun of Stuttgart notes that the
competition of German articles copied
after American patterns is making i'll
roads into what otherwise would be a
splendid market for our goods.
Consul H. w. Harris of Mannheim
says that while eighteen months ago
our Office furniture had the field almost
wholly to itself, to-day roll top desks,
file ca ses, bookkeepers' desks typewrit
ers' desks and other office furniture of
American design, but of German make,
is sharing the market. The same, he
says, is true of bath tubs and other
sanitary appliances. The American
bath tub has been so nearly copied that
an ordinary observer cannot distin-
guish between the native and the i'm
ported article. German shoes for both
sexes are now for sale in Mannheim,
shaped, lined. stitched, marked, num-
bered and put into boxes in almost ex-
act imitation of the American shoe.
Our lathes and planes are also closely
copied. Nevertheless, our goods are
making their way
