FORWARD NOT BACKWARD.

A thorough workman finishes
what he has in hand before he
leaves it, and then is done with
it forever. 1t is true that the
greatest artists sometimes keep
work by them for many years,
touching it from time to time,
because the work of art some
times grows in the thought of
the artist after it has been be-
gun, and the enlarged vision
which comes from the mere ex-
ercise of the hand compels a
larger treatment.
With action, however, this is
impossible. When a deed is
done, it has gone beyond the
power of the doer just as the
picture which has been moved
from the studio and gone to the
home OF the purchaser no longer
belongs to the artist.
Strength of char 900 i =
denced, among other things, by
the completeness with which a
man detaches himself from his
deed when he has finished it, OF
his decision when he has reached
it. This does not mean that he
separates himself from its con,
sequences-that is beyond his
powers; but it does mean that he
ceases to go over the ground
which he has tr: veled, to ask
questions which have perplexec
him, to brood over the problem
that has preceded his action.
When a deed is done, he leaves
it behind him; Ehe is not contin.
ually going back to question
whether he could have done
otherwise-whether his actor
was wise or otherwise. He re
cognizes the fact that whatever
its character may have been, i
has passed beyond his control
and he has now to confront tn,
new question, to make the pre-
sent decision.
Nothing is so extremel,
useless as this habit of constant
ly re-opening old decisions t.
which some people are given. I
takes from the present strength
which is needed for the nev
question, and wastes it upol
he things that are already set
tied beyond the possibility of be
ing re-opened. 1t is we'll to re
fleet on what we have done yes
terday, and to get from it nev
wisdom for tomorrow; but it i
useless to spend today askin,
idle questions about the decis
ions of yesterday.

WON'T SEEK ~. CLAY PIERCE HERE
Authorities VIII wait TIN He GOes to
MIssOuri-Pertury Denied.

AUSTIN, Tex, Nov. 23.-It is probable
that II. Clay Pierce Of the Waters-Pierce
Oil Company, who has been indicted for
alleged false swearing. will not be arrested
until he returns to Missouri. II is said
that Gov. Folk is wiling to grant Pierce's
e%xtradition. while it would likely take a
legal fight to get him out of New York.
Judge II. s, Prizes of st. Louis. attorney
for Mr.. Pierce, who is here, gave out the
following statement to-day:
The Waters-Pierce Oil Company was
organized under the laws of Missouri on
May 20. 1900. IL had only been in existence
two years when Mr.. Pierce made the afida-
Wit a. its president. The affidavit was
made under the direction and by the advice
of eminent counsel. who we're perfectly
familiar with all the facts.
The AFFIDAVIT did not contain any state
ment. as has been commonly rumored. that
the Standard Oil Company Of New Jersey
did not have any interest in the Waters
Pierce Oil Company. No statement a. to
who were the shareholders OF the company
was made in hat or any other affidavit,
nor was any such statement required by the
law.
~The affidavit, briefly but fully sum-
| married, stated that the Waters Pierce
Oil Company had not made. entered into.
or created any pool, trust, agreement or
understanding with anv other corporation
person or copartnership doing business
in the State Of Texas for the purpose of
fixing h price or limiting the output of
any article or commodity, and that IL was
not a monopoly.
THE words used required a legal dehni-
ton and Mr.. Pierce had the right to rely
upon the opinion Of his counsel for that
meaning and they still contend they held
rightly that the AFFIDAVIT stated the truth"

The Deputy Commissioner Undertook to
tell Judge D~ittehhoefer why Hanna Ora
ham was not in court.
Why" said he. simply because she
knew she would ave to 60 into a court
room crowded by a lot Of ours and dogs,
pervprt' such as you find in this o TO
whose low bestial instincts such a case
as his appeals
There was tense silence in the crowded
court room for a moment and then q storm
Of Kisses. The policemen called for order,
but it was several seco DIS before the dis
turbance was over. There were about
twelve or fifteen wone in the no m.
Il ask YOU" shouted the Deputy Com
missioner, as he turned toward the crowd
after the interruption, wOuld any woman
dare face a crowd OF ours and dogs, such
as have just hissed!"
The Deputy Commissioner then started
after Caruso. He characterized him as
this scum from the Lazaretto of Nspoli.
He wanted to know whether in dismissing
this case an example was to be spread
broadcast among the city's 5000 policemen
70 let men like this escape. Tit Deputy
Commissioner declared That there we're
thousands of the same sort walking the
streets. He characterized Caruso's friends
as sycophants and said that there had
not been a suggestion from him or any OF
them that his case could be hushed. The
Deputy COMMISSIONS wanted to know
why the coat which Caruso nae worn hadn't
been produced in court TO show how the
pockets were arranged.
There was the word of this man Csruso
he Deputy Commissioners said, against that
of a faithful policeman, for Cain, he de-
Clared. had secured convictions in 9s per
cent. of his cases.
1T is true, " said Mathot, that Caruso is
the greatest n in the world. And il is
true also that when the great fall the drop
is awful"
Thu Commissioner ridiculed any appeal
on sympathetic grounds. He declared that
Caruso couldn't even remember the day
he was married or WHERE.

The congregation of the Fifth Avenue
Baptist Church voted unanimously last
night upon recommendation of the pulpit
committee, composed of the deacons and
the board of trustees, of which John d.
Rockefeller, Jr.. is a member. to call the
Rev. DR.. Charles F. Aked, pastor OF Penn
broke Chapel, Liverpool, England, to fill
the pulpit Of the church left vacant by the
resignation OF the Rev. DR.. r. p. Johnston
DR.. Aked came to New York about the
first of November to supply the pulpit
of the church during the month and his
preaching has been exceptionally we'll liked.
He has been with his Liverpool church for
over sixteen years and said last night that
he will not return his answer to the call
until he has returned to England and con
suited his congre cation. He will sail on
December 5.
John +. Comey, acting chairman of the
pulpit committee IN the absence of E. l..
MarstOn, who is abroad. presented the COM
mittee's report last night. which stated that
the committee had ascertained from DIR.
Aked whether he would consider coming
to America and accepting the pastorste of

reply favorable. Mr.. Comey said that he
thought DR.. Aked would accept the call,
that he was thoroughly in sympathy with
American ideals and would come to America
to become a loyal citizen of the country.
Other members Of the church spoke
highly of Dr.. Aked, describing him az a
vigorous, strong man and as a preacher
of originality, brillisncy and power. II
was voted that compensation and other
arrangements be referred to the joint
corcmittee of deacons and trustees,
DR.. Aked was educated at Nottingham
University and held two pastorates before
he went to Pembroke Chapel in 1890. This
church had originally a large n aristo-
cratic congregation, which gradually
dwindled as Liverpool grew and left il in
the downtown district, until the congre-
gatioa averaged thirty-fve in IN morning
and sixty-ive at night. In 1902 the con-
gregation, a popular one, numbered 1880 in
the evening.
, DR.. Aked has carried on an active cam
paign against vice in Liverpool as the vice
president of the United Kingdom Alliance.
He was a member of the peace party in the
Boer war and was one OF the founders Of
the Passive Resistance League. whose
members as nOn-confor mists refused 90

HURT IN CRASH WITH .tUTO.
CAbmsn sullivan May'Die-Speessior Get
Bullet in the Neck.

Duitt !" Wv Ncths
Earle Wanzer, a chauffeur employed by
Frederick NJ. Hoyt Of 1876 East Seventy
first street, was locked up in the East
Twenty-second street station late last
night after Michael Sullivan, a cabman q,
had been knocked from his box and badly
hurt, and William Doran of 1888 First avenue,
who was watching a crowd of a hundred or
more chase Wanzer's machine, had been
shot in the neck. Sullivan and Doran
were taken to Bellevue Hospital by DR..
Lewis in the same ambulance. The cab
man is not expected to live, but Doran's
injuries were not serious.
According TO his employer. Wanzer took
the automobile out last night without Mr.,
Hoyt's permission to give two girls a ride.
The first seen OF him on the East Side was
when the big red car went down Third av-
n II like a streak. Sullivan was Just eros
sing Twentieth street when the auto hit mis-
carriage amidships, smashing IL to pieces
and hurting Sullivan into the street on his
head.
The chauffeur made a desperate attenp t
to escape. He ran the machine down a
block to Nineteenth street, and. seeing that
Policeman Mnrtha was after him with a
crowd at his heels. went back up Second
avenue a block and then turned east
through Nineteenth street. At Twentieth
street a shot was fired from somewhere. and
Doran, who was standing Mt the curb fifteen
feet from the auto, fell headlong, crying,
I'm shot"
The auto went on up First avenue az far
"a T~wenty-fourth street AMI then turn I'd
west. AT Second avenue Wanzer stopped
and one Of the girls jumped out with his
fur coat in her arms and hurried away.
The detectives took Wanzer and the
other girl TO the station house in the auto
mobile. When Doran reached the hospital
he declared that he saw a fash from the
front seat Of tho automobile just before
he was shot. He believed the driver of the
auto had Hired at him.
Wanzer denied the shooting and so did
tho girl. who said she was Grace Clark Of
444 West Forty-ifth street. The police
could find nc revolver on him or in the
machine.
The Clark girl was allowed 10 go.
The Bellevue doctors believe that Doran
will recover.

NEGRO CRITICISES ROOSEVELT,
Bishop smith Hopes He VIII Revoke Order
Against Negro Soldiers.

Against NrkTO SJfuicrss
Bishop c. S. Smith Of the Afro-American
Methodist Church of Detroit, Mich, in an
address before the congregation Of the
Bethel Church in West Twenty-ifth street
last night, criticised the Presidents action
in dishonorably Diminishing the three com
panies of the Twenty-ffth Infantry and
denounced Senator Tillman for his recent
utterances on the negro question.
He said in part:
Il have not the remotest idea that color
entered into the consideration of the order
Of dismissal Of the members OF these com
panies, nor do l wish to he regarded az
harshly criticising President Roosevelt,
in whom l have the greatest confidence
The Presidents action. however, is con-
trary to the public sense Of established
Justice. That l59 innocent men should be
punished for the wrongdoing of eight is
to say the least contrary to the spirit OF
fair dealing.
Il hope that President Roosevelt will
see his way clear some time and in some
way 10 10 change or modify his order that
the innocent may not stuff err with the guilty
That the guilty should be punished there
can be no question, for. as the President
is TO protect and defend life and property
and not to destroy it, What liz commonly
known as standing ~pat'-that is. that ne
member Of a military company shall expose
his compartments in obedience with the
unwritten o Of military honor the world
over"
Referring TO Senator Tillman, he said
in a speech in Augusta, Ga, the Saturday
following the Atlanta massacre Senator
1illman is quoted as saying there are moi
enough Yankees between Cape Cod and
He'll TO prevent the Southern white man
from doing what he pleased with the negro,
/ nswer him that there are not enough
Tillmanites between Cape Cod and Hell
10 hurl the American negro back into the
vortex of slavery or to permanently impede
his onward march"
Bishop Smith sails in a few days for
Liberia. He said; While in Liberia | shall
see if there can be found a way to found a
colony for American negroes. who are pray
ing to God for some country where they
can get away from the injustice, oppression
and discrimination to which they are sub
jected here"
