Chance That Is Needed.

In his address on christianity and
he Nation" at Association hall, Brook
yn, at the Advent missionary mass
meeting held there, Bishop Potter ex-
pressed the opinion that the nation
would not be made more religious by
having a recognition of God placed in
the constitution of the United States.
That was small matter, said Bishop
Potter, when compared with getting a
recognition of God in the heart OF the
men and women of this country.

| Washington, Jan. 1S.-The Louisi
ana Purchase exposition, which was
! to have been held at st. Louis in 1903
| will not take place until 1904. This
/ fact was practically conceded by ex-
Gov. Francis, president of the Louisi-
ana Purchase Exposition Co, and
Adolphus Busch, the financial agent
of company, at the White House Fri
day.
Since arriving here and comforting
with the foreign representatives Gov.
Francis and Mr.. Busch have come to
the conclusion that, unless the ex-
position is postponed for year, the
exposition will not be able to secure
the elaborate foreign exhibits which
are desired. They find, for instance,
that a great japanese fair is to be
given, under government auspices, in
1903, and if the exposition is post
poned until 1904 everything of inter-
est exhibited there can be brought to
st. Louis the following year. 1t is
the desire of the exposition manage
ment that the foreign exhibits, espe
cially, shall be very complete. I'm
1903 we can make the exposition as
great as any ever given" said Gov.
Francis, 'but if we postpone it a
year it will surpass anything in the
line ever attempted. We
can be ready in 1908, but it is ques-
tionable whether we can secure what |
we want from abroad by that time"
In order to interest foreign govern
ments it is the desire of the EXPOSE
ton management that the foreign
agents of the exposition be appointed |
md accredited by the state depart
nent, and steps are being taken to
hat end now.
Thursday Gov. Francis and Mr..
Busch extended an invitation,
through the German embassy, to
Prince Henry to visit ST. Louis dur
ng his stay in this country, but no
eply has been received thus far.

Tt is significant that the argument of
the imperialist may be met and de-
molished by quotations from the
greatest of American statesmen And
these quotations from the past are SO
pertinent that they often seem to have
been written for this very occasion.
1t is familiar claim that the people
of our new possessions are too ignorant
to govern themselves. On this very
poin Henry Clay once said ut is
the doctrine of thrones that man is too
ignorant to govern himself. Their
partisans assert his incapacity in
reference to all nations; if they cannot
command universal assent to the plopo-
sition, it is then demanded to partic-
ular nations; and our pride and our
presumption, too, often make converts
of as. | contend that it is to arraign
the disposition of Providence himself
to suppose that He has created beings
incapable of governing themselves
and to be trampled on by kings. Self
government is the natural government
of man.

Earthquake shocks were felt in many

substantial buildings. The Pan
American Congress was in session at
the time. and many of the delegates
were greatly alarmed.
Worshippers Killed.
The number of deaths were greater
in the parish church than in any single
place, as a crowd of worshippers were
gathered there for the afternoon
