The ethics of the pugilistic world are beyond the comprehension of the laity. Bruiser Fftzsimmons, a worthless loaf CT during all the years he has lived in the United States. was the idol Of a large section of the public until he committed a marriage within month or so after the death of his first wife. but now the former champion is so unpopular that his partner. Jeffries. has had to cut loose from him. So it appears that even a prize fighter can fall still lower in the scale of re- spectability.

Religion in Kansas.

This interesting paragraph comes from Topeka, Kas..
 "The debates of Senators Burton and Tillman at Western Chautauguas have borne good fruit. McGregor Wilson s well known Shawnee farmer, publishes a letter saying that he had been very bad huckleberry,' but now he has con- feSsed religion He says Tillman and Burton saved him and he thanks God for it.
 So remarkable man should be kept under observation for a few days. He may be mistaken in his symptoms. Al any rate. it must be a new brand of religion that proceeds from a discus sion of the race question by two United States senators. one of whom advocates wholesale killing as a solution. But If men--even ordinary "huckleberries"- can be brought to a better walk by such talk, by all means let Brother Tillman weep on. His purpose seems to be to incitc riot, but if that purpose is defeat ed. and good results. more length and bitterness to his tongue. For as long as his tongue holds out to burn the yilest "huckleberry'' may return. Washington Evening Star.

to seek for excellence in perform
ance rather than of performer. At
each, leading actors are often invited
to assume minor roles. Thcater-
goers thus have the comfortable as
surance that every character will re-
ceive adequate representation, and
that the resultant whole will be con-
sistently artistic. The emphasis of
this principle should be character

the Metropolitan opera house under
Mr.. Conried's direction. The audi

hear, not merely singers, but operas.

that night in 1872 when he spoke the
prologue at the opening of the Resi-.

theatrical career, he has advanced
steadily. He acted successfully il

he has brought to New York all the

discouraged most experienced and am

SCHIFF AND MORGAN,
They Are the Two Greatest Finan-
ciers of Wall Street.
Something About the Aggressive He
brew Banker Who Won h
Northern Pacific Fight and
Bought the Reading.

The man who could best wear the
mantle of Nr. j. p. Morgan, if that
financier should leave Wall street, is
Mr.. Jacob Fl. Schitf, according to Rob
ert N. Burnett, who contributes q
sketch of the banker to the Cosmo-
politan, in its Captains of Industry
series.
Mr.. Schiff it was, SO Mr.. Burnett tells
US, that really won from j. Pierpont
Morgan and James j. Hill the famous
fight for the control of the Northern
Pacific. While Mr.. Hartman appeared
more prominently on this occasion,
"Mr. schiff was the power behind the
throne Furthermore, Mr.. Schiff can
not only fight and win, but can COM
promise. He voluntarily suggested
that MIR. Morgan be empowered to.
name the new board of directors Of
the Northern Pacific which should rep
resent both sides and agree to unite
on q plan for the joint control Of the
road. Then he further showed his gen.
crosby by allowing the unfortunates
who had been "short" of Northern Pa
cific to cover their contracts at the
nominal price of $3.50, per share, when
he might have compelled payment of
two or three times that amount.
Mr.. Schiff's ability as a inancicr Yves
first brought before the public several
years ago by the reorganization Of
the Union Pacific railway and the set
Element of the debt to the government.
Later he took a hand in the purchase
of the Chicago & Alton, and also in the
acquisition of the Southern Pacific.
The firm of which he is the head, Kuhn,
Loeb & Co., is frequently employed by
such great concerns as the Pennsyl-
vania and Baltimore e. Ohio railroads
to conduct their largest financial oper-
ations.

The bureau of manufacture, which
n of the two lew bureaus Gre
ted by the law which made the de-
lartment of commerce, is hardly in a
condition yet to be the subject of a
Prospectus. What it, will be depends
'most entirely on Secretary Cortel-
tou's ideas of what it can be made to
Pe. The law is very vague. The act
keads that 1t shall be the province and
luty Of such bureau, under the direc-
ion of the secretary, to 'foster, pro-
note and develop the various manufac-
turing industries of the United States,
hnd markets for the same at home and
nbroad, domestic and foreign. by gath
fring. compiling and publishing and
supplying all available and useful in
formation concerning such industries
and such markets, and by such other
methods and means as may be pre-
Escribed by the secretary or prescribed
by the law"
Secretary Cortelyou has notcommit-
|sed himself to any plan for working
out this bureau of manufactures prob
lem. What is said above indicates what
may be done under the law. and what
Mr.. Cortelyou is turning over in his
mind. He is anxious above all things
TO have the bureau a practical anduse-
1ul branch of the government. He is
determined that it shall not degenerate
INTO a merely scientific department,
with a pail of scholasticism upon it;
nor does he want it to become a use
less machine for grinding out useless
ngures and equally useless facts. He
is feeling his way, soliciting sugges.
tlon, and tryingto get at the sentiment
OF the best informed and most pro-
gressive thought. He knows that his
present work is bound to be most i'm
portant, for the character which he
stamps upon the new department il

was the purchase of a majority of the
stock of the Reading railroad in the
interests of the Baltimore & Ohio and
Lake Shore railroads. When such
transactions as this are to be carried
out, there is room to ave or lose mill
lions of dollars, and by his wonderful
Diplomacy Mr.. Schiff saved these mill
lions.
He is perhaps the leading Hebrew of
New York, and there are many monu-
ments to his great. generosity, such as
the Montefore home, the Jewish Theo-
logical seminary, the Semitic muse
UNI at Harvard university, and the
Nurses settlement on the New York
east side. He is a trustee of the Baron
de Hirsch fund, and has been treas
urer of Bernard college. Mr.. schitt
was born in Germany, and spent the
larger part of his business career in
Frankfort, until he came to this coun-
try, over 80 years ago.

FRENCH-CANADIAN FLAG

"a combination OF the Union Jack and
Royal French %Standard.)
for the adoption of a flag that would
have the effect of "the tie that binds"
among his fellow-countrymen.
This priest is Able Filiatrault, of
St Judge, in the district of st. Hya-
cinthe, and his idea of the flag which
would best depict the feelings of
French-Canadians is shown in the &C
~companying Illustration.
Here is a flag which has for its basis.
in composition, that of the "Drapeau
Carlton n of the flags of the
French when they first landed in Can
ada.
In many ways it is a very simple.
but at the ame time a very imposing
emblem. 1t has for a ground a blue
color, and this is crossed with white,
while in each of the four corners is
placed a white ~fleur-de-lis.
Many are the questions that have
been asked why the French-Canadians
desire to break away from the French
flag. This is best told in the language
of one of them.
"It is DESTROYS on part that we
should have a distinctive flag of our
own. We honor the union jack, which
is our protector, but still we are of
French origin and cannot forget the
emblem of our ancestors. But we wish
to have an emblem which will portray
an idea of what we have descended
from, which the t%ri-color does not con
vey.
1.-The jack is the only flag which we
can look up to as a protector, and il
is not our desire to faunt the t%ri-colol
in the face of the English-speaking
people. which in time of trouble be.
tween Great Britain and France would
be d~istasteful."
