BAPTISTS TAKE
OIL KINGS GIFT
Missionary Unionf Accepts
a Donation of 100000
From John d. Rockefeller

BOSTON, April 8-The American
Baptist Missionary Union has received
from John D. Rockefeller a contribu-
tion of 100000, and has accepted and
acknowledged the donation. For sew
eral years Rockefeller has made an an
nual gift to the union.
Rev. DR.. Josiah Strong of New
FORK, president of the American
Institute of Social Science, has
joined in the protest of Congrega-
tional ministers against the acceptance
of the Rockefeller gift to the American
Board. In a communication to the
committee of the protesting clergymen
DR.. Strong says:
We are told by those who approve
the acceptance Of the gift that 1T is
not the business of a church, chari-
table organization or missionary So
ciety to sit in judgment on the char
acter of the contributions to its work
This simply begs the real question at
issue. Can a church or society thus
wash its hands of all responsibility
touching all gifts which may come to
its treasury without violating funda-
mental principles of ethics?
"A man may become possessed of
money to which he has no moral right
III a great variety of ways, but what
ever the method the fundamental eth
ical principle remains the same, name
ly, that man has no right to give
that which is not his, and no one has
Il right to receive gift which the
donor has no right to give
For more than twenty years we
have deplored the fact that working
men, as class. refuse to attend
church. When asked why, the habit
ual reply is that the churches belong
TO the 'capitalistic class, which is not
dealing justly by labor When men
who have kept back the laborers' hire
contribute largely to the religious OBJ
jects ard their gifts are accepted work.
lagmen believe that the church con-
dones injustice and are embittered
toward her.
THE conscience of the church touch
ing wealth profoundly needs quicken
ing. The new conditions of society de-
nland higher ethical standards. This
is most favorable time to respond to
the new need.

SEES IN JAPAN
A FUTURE FOE
John Hays Hammond Pre-
diets Struggle Between
Nippon and United States

PHILADELPHIA, April SIN an
address at the annual meeting of the
Academy of Political and Social Sci
ence to-day, John Hays Hammond.
one of the speakers, said in the course
of an address:
"Japan's strategic position CONNER
cially, by reason of the suzerainty-
if not indeed the ownership-she will
esta blish over Korea and possibly.
Manchuria, will render her our most
formidable competitor in the Far
East.
Americas interests in this respect
will undoubtedly run counter to those
of Japan. Japan is the only nation.
as view it, which can seriously COM
pete with us for commercial SUI
premacy in that part of the world.
The contest will undoubtedly be a bit
ter one, not only because of our con-
fiicting commercial interests, but ag-
gravated by those racial antipathies
even now agitating our Pacific Coast
States. In that section there is al
ready a strong movement to extend
the principle of the Chinese exclusion
act so as to include Japan in its pro-
visions. Retaliation on the part OF
Japan will assuredly follow, and she
will have it in her power to obstruct
our trade with the Orient.
THE influence of the sea power in
the history now making is the real
writing on the WALL II Japan se-
cures war indemnity from Russia. a
large portion of this will Undoubtedly
be expended on increasing her fleet.
Her naval preparedness will REQUIRE
that we also shall keep powerful
suuadrons on the Pacific. True tha
completion of the Panama canal will
make our entire navy more mobile.
Still we are now vulnerable in the pa
cific, at Manila and Honolulu and
strong Pacific sqiladrons must be our
policy of Insurance as to the outcome
of the Japanese victories
The war involves, then, that we.
and Great Britain, also, must main
tain formidable naval forces at strong
Pacific bases and that the most Init
mate relations must characterize the
diplomacy of the two great English
speaking nations.

WILL TUNNEL
THE SIERRA
Hartman Proposes to Use
Bulk of S1OO,OOO,OOO Stock
Issue for. a Great Work
Special Dispatch to The Gail.

OMAHA, April s.-One more step In
the accomplishment of E. H. Harri-
mans ideal of a transcontinental rail-
road is about to be realized. Millions
have already been expended in remov-
ing mountains and in other ways elm
mating curves and grades. On the
authority of high official of the Union
Pacific it can be stated that the pro-
ceeds of the s1Oo, 100000 stock issue an
nounced few days ago in New York
will be used to tunnel the Sierra.
At the time of the opening of the
Lucin cut-off. that masterpiece of en-
gineering which carries the railroad
across the Great Salt Lake, Hartman
announced that the next great work
to be undertaken would be the con-
struction of a system of tunnels
through the Sierra Nevada Mountains
in Nevada. At present many miles of
snowsheds wind through the Sierras.
They are supposed to provide protec-
ton from the snowstorms and snow
slides. but frequently they are destroy
ed by fire in the dead of winter, with
the result that the overland trains are
delayed for days at a time. The pro-
posed tunnels would not only be per-
feet protection against the snow, but
would straighten the course of the
road, reduce grades and eliminate
many curves.
While a portion of the 800. 600, 900
probably will be used in work now un-
der way in Kansas and other contem-
plated improvements on the main line
in Nebraska, the great bulk of 1t is

tion by the stockholders committee
probes deeper into the affairs of the
various Ubero Mexican plantation con-
Germs operating from a Boston head
quarters conditions far worse than were
feared are being discovered. 1t is now
estimated that the total of money
taken in by these alleged fake con-
Germs will reach s2.UO0.O00 for two con-
Germs alone, or 100000 more than was
supposed.
This sum applies to the affairs Of the
Ubero Plantation Company, the first
company organized here, and the Con-
solidated Ubero Plantations, q second
company. It is believed that when the
books are gone over by experts within
the sub-company the loss to investors
will reach nearly So. 900. More than
$3.50, 900 was taken in by the Ubero
Plantation Company.
The Consolidated Ubero Company

tions for 81. 300 600 worth, of which more
than $1.500.000 worth has been placed.

The Boys Contest

The declamatory contestants. the
boys division, of the high school,
spoke their pieces in the M. E.
church last Thursday evening in
the presence of large concourse of
their friends. The great number
present and the applause that
cheered the boys is an evidence of
the sympathy the people here take
in all phases of the education of the
young. In these gatherings the
cheering, which is sincere and APP
preciative, is itself an incentive in
education. Young people act large
ly upon suggestion. The approba-
ton of friends and the public is an
impelling agency in their applica-
ton and has much to do with their
success. AS a matter of course
each one desires to be first, but for
each of six to be first is an impos-
sibility, and the young people
should realize that to secure first
place should not be the measure or
limit of endeavor or attainment.
The practice, the discipline, is the
real gain. And as to which of the
six should be given first place was
delicate question to determine,
especially where several were so
nearly equal in attainment. One
may excel in delivery while he fails
in enunciation, pronunciation. One
may speak too rapidly when in other
respects his speech may have been
nearly faultless. AS matter of
fact the main defect in the declama-
tions of young people will be the
failure TO enter adequately into the
conception of the author, and the
younger the speaker, generally, the
greater will be this defect. 1t is
not SO difficult for the boy to learn
the words so that he can pronounce
them correctly and with distinct
enunciation, but for him to enter
into the spirit of the sentiment is
difficult. This apprehension comes
from age, much reading and more
thought. Take for instance that
speech of Daniel Webster, Murder
Will Out" 1t will require pretty
profound thought to grasp the full
import of Webster's conception as
he analyses the mind of the murder
er. Yet, every one who heard the
excerpt from that speech spoken
last Thursday night by fourteen
year-old boy will say that the decla-
nation was remarkably we'll made
for one of that age. 1t seems to us
these boys were all younger than
boys usually in contests of this
kind. They all did we'll. They
were at their ease; they did not
hesitate; each one spoke up like
man." the enunciation was better
than might have been expected and
there were few words improperly
pronounced. Emphasis and infec-
ton are more difficult phases.
These come with apprehension and
neutrality-suspicious.. This speak
ing the words of another will in de-
livery have faults like these. One
who speaks his own thoughts will
unconsciously give the proper in
Election and emphasis. 1t comes
with his thoughts.
