Jesus chrict Was Tempted.

"Many youth today, sheltered in
a Christian home, bears stainless
reputation because they have not
been exposed to the fierce storm of
temptation. But Jesus Christ was
tempted. The devil hurled all his
fury darts at him. Hell spent it's fury
on Him as the ocean waves roll and
break into pieces against the rock
bound shores. Yet Christ remained
as pure as the snow after the shadow
of a cloud had passed over it,
John called Him the Lamb of
God--God's Lamb. III broad sense
all lambs belong to God, but there is
special sense in which Jesus is the

died at the embassy this morning at 5;35
o'clock.
The improvement which had been noted
in his condition during the past week re-
ceived a sudden check about 8 o'clock last
evening, when it was noticed that he was
experiencing diniculty in breathing. DR..
Jung. his physician. was at once sent for
and he decided upon a consultation with a
local physician. in the mesntime telegraph
ing for DR.. osler Of Baltimore. In his
stead came DR.. Thayer Of Johns Hopkins
university. arriving about ? o'clock this
morning. The patients pulse was still
good and when DR.. Thayer left the en-
bassy at 8 o'clock for Baltimore the am
bassadpr was resting SO comfortably thai a
cablegram was sent TO his son-in-law, Mr..
Bromley. In London. that there was no i'm
mediate danger.
Diplomat Dies Peacefuny.
Soon after 3 o'clock a distinct weakness
OF the heart developed and his pulse began
ito collapse. He died so peacefully that Il
surprised even his physician. who feared
that the asthmatic affection would prove
troublesome when the end came.
AS soon as II became generally known
that Lord Pauncefote was dead flags were
Aalf-mssted over the different embassies
ad legations. At the Arlington hotel,
where the visiting Frenchmen who have
come TO witness the Rochambeau statue un-
yelling are stopping. the French flag was
placed at half mast.

land and by sea, but the decisive force was
that which landed at Newport in the long
July days of 1850.
To that brave, well-oficered, highly-dis-
ciplined army we raise a monument today,
by placing here in the nations capital the
statue OF Its commander. For their service
and for his own we owe him a debt of
gratitude, for which we should make last
ing acknowledgment, one which will stand
unchanged beneath the sunshine and the
rain long after the words we speak shall
have been forgotten.
We unVeil this statue in honor of a brave
soldier who fought by the side of Wash

ment of our gratitude to France. But let
us not forget that we also commemorate
here the men who first led I'm arms the

fury of conflict has advanced the cause of
freedom and popular government through

States and the dean OF the diplomatic corps
in Washington, was born in Munich, Ba-
varia, seventy-four years ago, and was the
issue of one Of the most ancient Of British
families, whose history is found in the
Doomesday book.
Educated as a lawyer, his governmental
services began in Hong Kong as attorney
general in 1856, and after much valuable
colonial experience. he came to Washing
ton In 1889, first as minister and afterwards
as first ambassador. His service here has
been one unbroken record Of successful d.
plomacy.
The Boring sea negotiations were among
his earliest works of Importance and II
was his familiarity with that difficult sub
ject that led to his selection by the foreign
office for the post at Washington.
Forerunner of Great work.
The arbitration treaty negotiated with
Secretary olney was the forerunner Of the
great work accomplished at The Hague
and 1t may be said that it embodied some
Of the most important principles of the
great general convention regulating arbl.
tration afterwards framed by The Hague
conference. Then came a number OF reel
procity treaties and arrangements involv.
ing 4 VAST amount OF STUDY hnu Work, al
Of which were perfected as far as the ex-
ecutive branch of our government could
cooperate with Lord Pauncefote. s
Soon after Secretary Hay assumed Office
Lord Pauneefote began the task which b.
himself regarded as the greatest aocomp,
llshment OF his busy life. namely. to for
ever set at rest the questions growing gu
Of the old Clayton-Bulwer treaty, and h,
entered with energy negotiations, the re
suit OF which was the framing of the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, recently ratified.
For these valuable services the British
government did Lord Pauncefote the homo
to three times extend the term OF hi
service at Washington, which would other
wise have ceased when he attained the ag,
of 70 years.

supreme from the st. Lawrence to Florida.
The danger from the north, dark with In
dian warfare, which had SO long threatened
the Atlantic colonies, had passed away.
The need OF the strong support of the
mother country against the power of
France had gone and the position of the
colonies in their relations with England
was enormously strengthened.
A laundering ministry, a few meddlesome
ana oppressive acts on the part Of Parlia-
movere' and mischief would be afoot. 1t
all came sooner than anyone dreamed.
The rejoicing at the close of the victorious
war had hardly ended, the congratulations
to the great commoner'' had hardly
ceased, the statue of George III was
scarcely firm on its pedestal. when the
Americans rose in wrath against the stamp
act.
England gave way sufficiently to make
the colonies realize their power and yet
not so completely as TO eXtlnguish sus-
picion and hostility. There was a lull, a
period of smiling deceptive calm. then the
storm broke again, and this time there was
1t. The little minds which Burke thought
so Ill suited to a great empire were in full
control and the empire began in conse-
quence to show an ominous and ever
widening rent.
France Plays Decisive Part.
Again France appears upon the continent
where for so many years she had prayed
such a great part and had fought SO
bravely and so unavailingly for dominion.
