Everyone has heard of the woman
visiting France for the first time
who expressed her surprise that
"even the young children spoke
French so fiuently." She was much
like the Englishman described in a
recent book of travel.
He was very fond of travelling, and
took great delight in honizing differ
ent cities which we visited; but in
one respect he was a staneh John

Come to Perth AmbOy Tomorrow.

The Newark Sunday News has the
following to say regarding the games
for Orange A. O. this week:
Orange did not play its scheduled
game Saturday with the Murray Hills

rested up for their game this after

Perth Amboy on Tuesday will both be
hard tests for Orange.
The Athletic Club team has lost but
one game this season, being beaten by
the Chicago National Leaguers, and
the players will endeavor to keep up
their good record. With Deegan IN
the box today the Giants will face a
hard proposition, as the crack twirler
held the Gothamites we'll in hand in
the two games played last year be-
tween the teams.
In the Marions of Perth Amboy,
Tuesday, the Orangeites will meet
one of the best teams in South Jersey

UNITED STATES IN MINIATURE
Unique Feature of the st. Louis Ex-
position Showing Products of
the Different States.

Assistant Secretary Brigham, of the
department of agriculture, has Sc
cured the use of a sunny slope OF
ground of about ten acres near the
government building at the ST. Louis
exposition. and this will be laid off
as a miniature reproduction of the
United States, says Bradstreet's. The
several states and territories will be
clearly defined, the boundary lines of
each being made up of pathways so
chat visitors can walk around each
separate commonwealth. The prod
ucts of each section will be repre-
sented in the various states, and, if
the skill of the departments experts
can accomplish the desired results,
will be growing in the state to which
they are native when the exposition
is formally opened on May 1, 1904.
For instance, miniature fields of
rice will be growing in Louisiana,
Texas and the Carolinas, with the
other products of these states; Mis-
sissippi, Florida, Alabama and Geor-
gia, the Carolinas, and Texas will
have fields of snowy cotton. green
wheat, and waving corn; Virginia and
che golden tobacco belt of North
Carolina will show the plant in all
its varieties, while Maryland, Arkan-
sas, Missouri and other states will
afford bird's-eye view of the diversi-
fed crops grown within their bor-
iers.

for any one than daily immersion. II

EDITORIAL OPINION
The Wesley 5icentenniaI.

The Wesley Bieentennal.
From the Chicago Tribune.
This year grateful and apprecia-
tive world turns its eyes back OH the
England of the eighteenth century and
transforms the puny figure of John
Wesley the man, into the gigantic and
resplendent figure Of John Wesley, the
religious reforner.
Was Wesley a great metaphysician
Was he a great theologian? To these
questions most NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and
theologians have returned a decided
negative. What il they have? The
world at large reveres Wesley not as a
metaphysician or as a theologian, but as
an evangelist. seer. prophet, power
turning men toward righteousness.
Seldom has the world been able to
say with regard to any man i'm so full
a sense as II is able TO say it with re-
gard TO John Wesley that he was both
a man OF God and man of affairs. He
had genius FOR government not In
ferior to that of Richelieu." said Ma
caulay. He was the first Of theological
statesmen" said Buckle. NO such lead
er of men appeared i'm the eighteenth
century oiAu A4ehhe CNtlntis
This position of John Wesley as .
doer rather than as a thinker Is wen
illustrated by the inconsistencies into
which he was plunged. Only the the
orist can be perfectly consistent. The
man Of affairs finds himself confronted
with the Inconsistency and contra
dictoriness OF the structure OF the
world.
II is not to be too harshly commented
upon, therefore. that while in 1887 Wes-
ley wrote: Il still think that when the
Methodists leave the Church Of Eng
land God will leave them" he never
theless made separation inevitable by
ordaining Coke, three years before as
superintendent, or bishop in America,
and Mather, two years after, as super
intendent in England. 1t was Wesley's
fate, as IT has been that of many an
other great man of affairs, to do things
which did not consist with his theories
and which had consequences beyond his
authorizations.

mons thinks and means to DO. still less
what an Individual British peer thinks
and means to do on any given subject,
but it matters a very great deal what
single United States senator thinks and
means to do.
The senate can veto every appoint
ment made by the president whether
the man nominated for Office be a
judge of the supreme court or an am
bassador or merely collector of GUS
toms. Again the senate can, by refus-
ing TO pass 1t, veto any bill sent up
from the lower house, no matter
whether the bill is concerned with the
raising or spending Of money or with
alterations I'm the law. Lastly, not a
majority, but any minority which num-
bers over a third of the senate can re-
fuse to ratify any treaty presented for
ratification by the president. Thus the
executive can make no binding treaty
with any foreign power unless it can
obtain a two-thirds majority in the
senate. In other words, the senate can
say the final word not only in regard
to all legislation, but in regard to all
finance, all appointments to high Office
and to foreign affairs Of the nation.-
