MINISTERS, ON LINER,

New York, June 1S.-The $50 first
cabin passengers on the Kaiserine Au-
guste Victoria. which arrived yester-
day, had narrow escape, according to
Lew Fields, the comedian, from a form
of multiplied ostracism 1t became
known that three card sharps had
boarded the ship at Dover. Nobody
knew their identity, hence arose ter
rible condition of suspense, speculation
and suspicion.
cit was a guess who they were,o
said Mr.. Fields. and so every passen-
ger picked out for himself the man he
suspected. One man after another was
picked out as sure-thing gambler un-
til there was none left exempt. In the
suspected list were ministers, brokers,
bankers, playwrights, diplomats, diree-
tors, managers, doctors, lawyers, barons
and counts.
FINALLY I felt myself under suspi-
cion-I, who don't know jack pot
from four flush and never laid win
ming bet in my life. Men who had
been very friendly and sociable with
me all at once began to cut me dead.
81 even overheard some remarks
which were not intended for my ears.
There he goes / heard a gray-haired
woman remark to her neighbor. fThey
say that IS one of those gambling chaps
the notices are posted about. ~

Mrs. Longworth in Europe.

Europe is already in something Of an
excited state over the, Longworths.
Their entertainment at London, where
Mrs. Longworth sat sat the left hand
of the king'' at a dinner given by Am
,bassador Reid, has"set the pace for
continental entertainment. The emper-
or of Germany will not care to be out
done in honoring the woman who chris
tened his boat. The French will not
be pleased to have their traditional
friendship for America dimmed by an
inferior blowout for the Long
worths. >~~~. - -. >.~- ,--. "
The whole Longworth campaign is
illustrative of the difference between
America and Europe. It is figured
out somehow that Mr.. and Mrs. Long
worth must be entertained beyond the
ordinary duty Of courtesy because Mrs.
Longworth is the presidents daughter.
Europe tends thus to give the presi-
dency a hereditary standing and to re-
fleet the glories Of the position upon
the members of the family of the oc-
cupant. President Roosevelt has done
what he could to guard against any
entertainments which might be miscon-
strued in this country, by requesting
that none be given of an official char.
acter. Nevertheless, much more enter.
| tanning of Mrs. Longworth will be
done than would be the ease were she
not so related.

London, June 1S.-Melba, the queen

some months and her friends are urging
her to give UP her engagements and be-
GIN her cure at once.

Congress rushed out of doors to watch

gressional halls for that?
Reservi1lg Coal Lands.

The presidents recommendation, in
report on the Standard Oil abuses, that
the government retain title to coal and
oil lands remaining in the public do
main appears likely to bear fruit in the
resolution Of Senator Spooner
The popularity Of such a resolution
bears testimony to the distance this
country has traversed since the last
great coal strike. During that contest
Senator Hill Of New York advocated
the public ownership Of coal mines and
thereby contributed to the defeat Of
the democratic ticket in the state of
New York. At that time President
Roosevelt succeeded by mediation in
averting the terrible public conse-
quences Of prolonged struggle between
labor and capital in the soft coal fields
But the president saw then the peril
Of depending always upon volunteer
mediation. He was credited then with
an intention if mediation failed to take
possession of coal fields and with the

portation companies for distribution tt

as he does now that such action woulj
alright capital to degree which woul,
neutralize the good effect Of such &C
ton The middle course suggested il
his message was to conserve the GOV
eminent ownership Of lands which are
underlain with coal and oil and thus tt
be prepared to mine coal or draw OF
from the depths Of the earth for tn,
service of the people in competition
with the monopolistic control Of tn,
coal regions and the Standard Oil com
pany's offensive domination Of the Of
industry Of the country.
The quiescence with which such view

Senatorial Elections,

The elections this fall will not only
determine the political complexion Of
the house but may to some extent de-
termine the future attitude Of the SEN
ate, tho there is no probability of it's
political majority being overthrown.
There are twenty-eight senator's to be
replaced by legislatures to be chosen
at the November balloting. Of these,
thirteen are democrats and fifteen re-
pubhcans. The election has already
been held in Oregon, where the repub-
icans have regained a senator tempo
rarily lost by. the replacing Of Mitchell,
republican, by Gearin, democrat, by
appointment. Berry, Blackburn and
Carmack, democrats, have been de-.
feated, but replaced by other democrats.
Martin and Morgan have the assurance
of the primaries of reelection. The
other democrats must run their chance
So far as increasing their strength in
the senate is concerned, the democrats
have very little hope from the coming
elections They cannot expect to gain
In any state except possibly in West
Virginia, where the noble friend of the
people, Elkins, is up for Endorsement,
and they stand to lose in Colorado,
where Patterson has been repudiated
by his own city Of Denver and where
republicanism is in an ascending scale.
Cullom, Dolliver, Frye, Crane, Mel
son, Gamble and Warren, Srepublican
senators who are acceptable TO the peo-
pie, are fairly certain Of reelection. In
Rhode Island there is a poor chance of
beating the Aldrich nominee. In New
Jersey there is fighting chance to re.
tire Dryden, the offensive representa-
tive Of the insurance trust. The spec.
tacular Tillman must run the gauntlet
in South Carolina, where the issue is
his stubborn adhesion to the dispensary
system, which has outraged the feelings
of the better element in the community
without having contributed anything tc
the solution Of the liquor problem. But
it Is apparent that the people must wait
two years more to get at the Forakers
Carriers, Bulkeleys, Keans and othe,
fierce friends of the corporations il
the senate.

Americas Debt toAa French Blood
History holds no more interesting story
than that of the Huguenots. a story full
of the finest romance, the highest BRAY
cry, the most steadfast fidelity and NOR
ality. It Is no wonder that romancers
have made frequent use Of the abundant
material 1t holds for their craft. But
1t Is welcome change from the purely
romantic to book that contains only
the romance Of history-The French,
Blood In America, by Lucian J. Fosdick.
The purpose Of Mr.. Fosdick's book is
to trace the presence and influence OF
the French Protestant blood in America,
and to show how important a part 1t has
had in the making of our republic and
we venture to say that the story the
book has to tell will prove a revelation
! to most readers, and It will prove a de-
| light for the wealth OF terial and the
happy style Sof the author.
Going back to the rise Of Protestant
ism In France, the author discloses the
French spirit, tells the story Of the. HUI
guenotsl at home, their suffering for their
faith, then turns to the early attempts
at cole nizarions the French Professionals
In America, the French in New York,
in Pennsylvania and the southern states,
and the French In various relations. In
all of this one is amazed at the number
LOT great names in American history
which spring from the French, names
like Revere, Faneuil. Bowdoin, Dana
Jay, Hamilton, Girard, Bayard and a
host Of others, merely to mention whom
is to indicate the tremendous contribu-
ton to the best in American life derived
from France. a. .E...- . .
i It is, indeed,atime that Americas in.
debtedness to the French Protestants
!. should be more fully recognized, and Mr.
& Fosdick's book will go far toward Sc
q curing that recognition, in proper guam
SEtity and quality. I 81 55tt<5zz ss. Z:

PEACE ON EARTH IS

Age of Fraternalism' Approaching

journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
Cambridge, Mass, June 1s.-Dr. Ly-
man Abbott Of New York, in his bac-
calaureate sermon yesterday to the
Harvard seniors, predicted the speedy
coming of new age of fraternalism,
by which term he interprets the usual
significance of socialism.
THE age is already dawning,o he
said, in which man will do only what
will serve his fellow beings; when
common respect for every other mans
rights will exist, when the Protestant
respects the creed of the Catholic, the
Catholic respects the creed of the
of the Gentle and the Gentle that Of
the Jew, and every man says he sees
a little part of the truth and that his
neighbors sees still another part
"There have been three conceptions
Of human relations. The first is au-
tocracy, the second individualism, the
third fraternalism. In the middle ages
tocracy. A few chosen men led. The
tocracy. A few chosen men lead. The
broke down this religion and individ-
ualism arose, a few emigrated to Amer
lea and individualism had free
growth.
/ Unacceptable Tendency.
l- NOW we are entering 1nCO tne IhlfO
epoch, the epoch of fraternalism.
I.Society is not a mere aggregate Of
individuals. It is person, a unit.
Government is distinct organism. It
has its intelligence, it's conscience, it's
laws. Society is not a mere combina-
ton Of struggling men. The age of
competition is giving way to the age Of
combination. to organism, it is move
ment outward and upward. There is
no power that can stop this tendency.
"ln religion it is not relation be.
tween an individual soul and his God.
The church is not to be united by COM
mon creed or by forms, but by a COM
mon animating purpose and spirit.
Already the standard is changing
as to- what makes for success. We are
already no longer honoring mere wealth,
. but look for the good accomplished in
getting it. I do not attack the multi
millionaire. 1t is better to be multi
millionaire than to wish you were one,
without the ability to get the wealth.
We are learning that it is a faIsehood
that each man should vote for his own
interests. That has brought the spec
tacle of man accepting S. at the very
bottom of the scale, to a $4,000, 900
franchise at the top.'
