of these mirrors of the country's
thought is well set forth in the following
editorial utteranee of the Washington
Post:
There can be no doubt that sense of
irritation. rapidly deepening and inten-
styling. prevails at the capitol and in
official circles generally. caused by Ger
many's course in Venezuela Although
it is now everywhere known that Eng
land is bound helplessly to Emperor
Williams chariot wheels and cannot
withdraw from that humiliating posi-
ton without his consent. the fact re-
mains and is of universal recognition.
that Germany has far exceeded the lini-
tations of the original programme. and
is in the attitude of an agreement
breaker. Some feeling of obligation-a
triffe chivalric and clearly dangerous
seems to hold England to the letter of
her compact, though there can be little
doubt that Germany has broken it in
the spirit. and thus our dear brethren
across the sea are in the way of suf-
fering from a demonstration which can
not much longer be controlled. 1t was
not the understanding of our govern
ment that the allies contemplated any
thing more than a peaceful blockade.
The seizure and destruction of the
Venezuelan gunboats, the commandment
of Venezuelan forts and the burning Of
Venezuelan towns-these outrages and
others too numerous to mention were
not prehgured in the representations or
iginally made to the United States. OF
course, it is England's affair. If she
wishes to go on with the game, that is
her privilege. But nothing can be more
certain than that the country is thor
oughIy indignant, and that a much fur
ther prolongation of existing conditions
win lead to very serious consequences
On all sides it is conceded that the Ger
man performance has gone far enough.

Not In the Bible

There are a number of sentences
not in the Bible which everybody
thinks are there" said clergyman,
according to the Philadelphia Record
1.-THE chief of these sentences is: He
tempers the wind to the shorn lamb.
You would search the Bible pretty
thoroughly before you would find that
sentence in it, Where you would find
it would be in Sterne's Sentimental
Journey.
"Sterne gets a good deal of praise
for the origination of this sentence,
but 1t was originated, as a matter of
fact before he was born. In a co.'s
lection of French proverbs published
in 1884 we find, -'Dieu mesurer lie vent a
la brebis tondue.' That 7convicts Sterne
of plagiarism.
" In the midst of life we are in
death'--everybody thinks that is in the
Bible. 1t isn't, though; 1t is in the
Burial Service.
" That he who runs may read. This
is another. sentence SUPPOSED. wrong
ly, to be Biblical. 1t is not Biblical,
though the. Bible. has something very
like it, namely, That he may run that
readeth.
" Prone to sin as the sparks fly
upward The Bible nowhere contains
those words.

The nearest thing to that in the Good
Book Is, Shall nation be born at
once? - .'T,

During the 2OOth anniversary of, John

Wesley was an amateur physician
He wrote a book called Primitive

Wesley says to apply a chin-stay of

THE PULITZER SCHOOL.

The donation of 100000 for the es-
Enlistment of a School of Journalism
at Columbia College. which Mr.. Joseph
Pulitzer has made, will add new dis
tinction to his name and link it not
only with those who have contributed
to the upbuilding Of New, York city,
but also with those who have helped
to make the nation what it is. The
amount is ample for such a school as
is proposed. If the school should
prove to be a great success doubtless
there would be other schools of like
character established in other parts OF
the country.
Although the announcement OF Mr.,
Pulitzer's purpose came suddenly and
unexpectedly it seems that he had had
1t under consideration for a long time.
Therefore when it was announced, it
was practically complete in its most
important particulars. A building
will he erected at once and doubtless
within very short time the school
will be in operation.
At first there may be some difficulty
in getting professors that will meet
Mr. Pulitzers ideas as to the kind of
journalism that should be taught. 1t
is well known to every newspaper
reader that there are at least two
kinds, and there may be more. One
seeks the truth. and the other seeks
stories that will attract attention and
bring readers to the paper
It may be that it isn't Mr.. PuIit-
zer's purpose to dictate the kind of
journalism that shall be taught, but
as that question will come to the front
it will have to be decided. Probably
the men named by Mr.. Pulitzer as
trustees have taken all such questions
into consideration, and will be pre-
pared when the proper times comes to
settle them satisfactorily.
