Il hesitate to pronounce any opin.
ion upon a subject so vast and so in
tricate, but there are two remarks
that venture to make.
First If France IL decaying. then
the whole European civilization as at
present understood Is decaying. The
same bad symptoms which appear in
France appear also in England, Ger
many. italy. and, from what one hears,
in the nations Of Europe Nor can
see that the United States are much
better
Second France throughout her his
tory has generally taken all her dis
eases severely and recovered from
them vigorously. The present bad
symptoms may be more severe in
france than elsewhere, the recognition
Of them IS certainly more outspoken,
and the effort toward regeneration
more resolute and far reaching

PUBLIC OPINION
Editor Evening News:

Editor Evening News:
Will you allow me to send you a
partial autobiography of Erastus
Wiman-once known as the King OF
Staten Island and who only a few
years ago was interested in terra Gotta
works within the limits of North
Amboy in which he carried his fad
to the extent of naming them the
"Staten Island Terra Gotta Lumber
Works. and thousands have inquired
whence came the name? A ferryboat
from New York to Staten Island still
bears his name. 1t now comes out
how the bridge from Elizabethport
across to Staten Island came to be
built. Wiman barely escaped prison
by taking too much personal liberty
with the check book of Dun, Wiman
& Co., and r. G. Dun was compelled
to sever all connections with him.

CHICAGO, Feb. 15.-The city au-
thorities have prevented the use of Il
"spot light" in Sir Henry Irying's pro-
duction of 1.-THE Bells and have COM
PEELED the stage management to use in
stead in the dream cen a strong in
candescent light. This action, in con
| nection with other safeguards which
have been placed about Chicago thea
ter audiences since the Ire s4s .isaG-
ter, has caused no little arrogance to
the English actor, who expressed his
displeasure when called before an au-
dience at the close of his performance
in the Illinois theater. In the course of
his remarks Sir Henry said:
II trust that you will not misunder-
stand me if | refer to the recent fear
full, lamentable disaster which oc-
Cured here, a disaster which was the
result of panic. Panics are always ter
rible, and the disasters they produce
are always terrible. That which oc-
Cured casts no reflection on your city
or on the theaters of your city. for it
could have occurred in any other city
In the world and in n cathedral, in a
church or in a railway station just as
easily as in a theater.
But it has produced q p%anic-a pam
ic among your officials-and l would
ask you to use your influence directly
and among your friends to allay as
o o and so far as possible this feeling
OF panic.
"And l would like it to be thoroughly
understood by you that sometimes
much injustice may be done by Jacks
in office, and I would earnestly beg of
you to exert all your influence to allay
the feeling of panic which at present
exists among the officials of your great
