A WORLD POWER

ne Unitsd States Was such Rsfors W.
Ever Had Colony or . Great Navy
The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
Speaks as follows concerning the inn
perialist catch phrase, "a world pow
err:
Whether it was moral force or re-
publicanism or democracy or some
thing else which did the business, the
fact Is that this nation was as great a
power in the worlds diplomacy and in
the ordering of international affairs
before 1t ever possessed a colony or
robbed people of their independence
or destroyed a republic or had a large
standing army and greater navy, as
1t has lately boasted of being because
of all these agencies; and it would be
as great power now without these
things in the world of action-and
thrice greater, without them, as a
power in the much more important
world of ideas, where it but lately
stood as the exponent of principles in
government that constitute the CHIEF
reliance OF oppr ssed people for better
things. Colonies and resulting great
navy can add nothing whatever to
the high standing of the American
nation as real world power, and
must detract much"
In support of this position the Re
publican quotes from a letter of John
Bright, written in February, 1866.
Mr.. Bright said:
The United States maintained prev
1ous to the outbreak of the civil war
an army of 1900 men and a navy of
1000, and for 10 years previous had
pever commissioned line-of- battle
snip. Yet in her dealings with Eng
land and Europe, with their standing
armies OF half a million men and their
nav1es OF scores of line-of- battle ships, |
the United States carried, we are now
told, matters with high hand! Was
there ever stronger admission of the
superiority of moral force and repub-
lcanism? :. Here you have an I'M
armed nation bullying great military
and naval powers. Shall con-

FATHER KNE1pP,s CURE.

In the early smorning all the patients
 walk barefoot through the wet grass.
 Those who have been here longest go
 without shoes and stockings all day. I
 am told it is delightful to walk barefoot in the new fallen snow. Women's skirts reach only to the ankles; men
 wear knickbockers. The only footgear
 allowed at Woerishofen is the leather
 sandal, classic and comfortable. New corners begin by wearing the sandal
 over the stocking, then the stocking is left off half an hour--an hour-and
 finally for the whole day. An hour and
 a half after breakfast and dinner cold
 douche is taken. The bitizguss Qight-
 ming douche) is for people who have been taking the cure for some time. The runlf (body) douclie is commonly prescribed for new arrivals. At the
 women's bath attached to this hotel a |'rosy madachen plays the hose upon the
 patient with skill and firmness. That ordeal over, the dripping victim scran- bles hastily into her clothes-drying and
 rubbings are forbidden-and exercise vigorously until she is perfectly dry and warm The collaboration which follows is indescribable. In the exercise room
 attached to the largest bath have seen 8 bishop caperiag, a princess saving wood, @ fat American millionaire pir-
 ouetting with balancing pole. No one laughs: it is too grave g. matter. You

under the chair of St. Peter, the chair of Leo XIII and the white shadow, mos tionless, erect within it, amid court of cardinals and diplomats.
 One more moment" however, there
 was-yery different from the great mo-
 ment of the entry, yet beautiful The
 mass is over, and 8 temporary platform
 has been erected between the confession and the nave. The pope has been placed upon it, and is about to chant the Apos- tolic benediction.
 The old man is within 30 feet of Man isty, who sits nearest to the barrier.
 The red cardinal holding the service
 book, the group of guards, clergy and
 high officials, every detail of the Pope's gorgeous dress, nay, every line of the
 wrinkled face and fieshless hands. Lucy's eyes command them all. The quayering voice rises into the sudden
 silence of St. Peter's. Fifty thousand
 people hush every movement. strain their ears to listen. @. s-, ~s .a, An how weak it is. Surely the effort is too great for a frame so enfeebled, so
 ancient. It should not have been exact
 ed-allowed. Lucy's ears listen painly
 for the inevitable break. But no-the
 pope draws a long sigh. the sigh of Imeakness. (Ah! poveretta!" says a woman close to Lucy. in transport of pity) )-then once more attempts the chant-sighs again-and sings. Lucy's face softens and glows; her eyes fill
 with tears. Nothing more touching
 more triumphant than this weakness
 and this perseverance,. Fragile, in-
 domitable face beneath the papal crown! Under the eyes of 50,000 people the Pope signs like child because he is weak and old. and the burden of his
 office is great; but in signing, keeps a
 perfect simplicity, dignity courage. Not
 trace of stoical concealment; but also
 not trace of fiinching. He sings to the end, and St. Peters listens in ten-
 der hush. <.
 Then there seems to be moment of
 collapse. The long, straight lips close
 as though with snap, the upper jaw kprotruding. the eyelids drop; the ema- feiated form sinks upon itself.
