GEORGE T. ANGEL.


lf, after the manner of the ancient
writers. one might imagine conven-
ton of dumb animals assembled to
decide as to who is the most useful
man of his generation. there is little
doubt that George T. Angel. OF Bos-
ton, would he selected.
At the age of eighty-three Mr. An.
gell is one OF the most interesting ms
he is the best loved man living today.
The work that he has done for the
suffering brute creation. accomplished
often through great difficulties. makes
his name unique In the annals of ben.
eficence.
Nearly every law on our statutes
for the prevention of cruelty To ami
mails has been put there through the
direct or indirect efforts of MIR. An.
gell. And the public sentiment re-
quired for the passage of such laws
was largely created by him
For fifty years this grand good man
has Travelled over the country at his
own expense preaching the gospel OF
Kindness TO all the lower creatures
In order to do this work he gave up
n lucrative law practice. and has CIV.
en- his life. great abilities and in
sistent energies for the sake of those
living creatures who can not speak
for themselves.
He began his work In the COS
| when there was little public senti-
ment and scarcely no law for the pro-
lection of dumb animals. He often
faced detraction, rldicule and mobs.
In 1882 Mr.. Angel started the
American Bands OF Mercy. which now
comprises an army of 1000, 900
American boys and girls pledged to
be kind to harmless living creatures
His endeavors to have the horrors
of war and the blessings OF peace
taught in the public schools consti-
tute distinct benefaction
For forty years Mr. Angel has
printed our Dumb Animals" The
face of the little monthly Is familiar
TO every newspaper Office The good
man sends It free TO every editor.
And always there has been on the
front page that fine sentiment from
Cowper MI Angells motto:
would not enter ON my list of
friends,
Though graced with polished man
ners and fine sense.
Yet wanting sensibillty, the man
Who needlessly set foot upon a worm.
In addition to lecturing. institul-
ing suits. editing tons OF literature.
etc. Mr.. Angel was the organizer OF
the American Humane Education
Society which has done good work
in spreading humane ideas. and also
Of the American Social Science so
ciety which labors In the Interests Of
public health.
This Is an Arabic saying: when q
man dies men say what property
did he leave?' but the angels say.
What good deed has ne sent before
him?'"
Mr.. Angel viii not leave much
property lie has spent Il for the
prevention Of cruelty to man and
beast, spent time and money and her
culean energy to teach the blessings
Of kindness and mercy and peace
And upon his good. gray head
rests the benediction Of angels and Of
men

POLISH CHILDREN n
RESIST ORDER.

BERLIN Nov 10.-Fifty thousand
Polish children persist in refusing to
respond in the German language to re-
ligious instruction in the public schools
and the Prussian authorities continue
to apply measures designed to convince
the children and. their parents that
their resistance will be of no avail
All Prussian Poland is stirred by, the
outbreak of race and political hatred.
The events in Russia appear to have
stimulated the Polish national move
ment, so that the Polish newspapers
and Polish agitators have taken more
aggressive attitude against the Gov
ernment. They have selected the Prus-
sian and Russian ministers require
ment that religious instruction be given
in German as the principle to combat,
because upon it could the religious
feeling of Catholic Poland be CONSOLE
dated and a certain amount of support
be won by the Vatican, while at the
same time the Government might be
weakened by the hesitation of the Ger
man Catholic party to oppose Polish
co-religionists.

MIDDLE COURSE IN
CHURCH CRISIS.
Attitude of the Clemenceau
Cabinet on Separation May
Be Approved by Vatican
POLICY Is CHANGED

PARIS. Nov. 1O.-Unless the Nati-
car authorities cause some radical
changes in the situation the fears of a
religious crisis resulting from the en-
forcement December II of the law
providing for the separation of church
and state are regarded as dissipated
in consequence of the middle course
steered by the Clemenceau Cabinet.
The extreme Radicals. under NJ. Combes
and n. Pelletan. who insisted that a
policy OF spoliation and persecution be
inaugurated December II, have been
appcased by the announcement that all
church property not claimed by cul-
tural associations on that date will
pass under the control of the state for
distribution TO the communes at the
end Of the present year.
On the other hand, the churches in
the meantime viii remain at the dis
possl Of the clergy, and a road for re-
treat is left open to the Vatican by the
admission of the possibility that church
property can by state decree be grant
cd to associations formed before De-
cember II. 1907.
The speech of Minister of Public
Worship NJ. BRAND yesterday explained
the Governments intentions and was
extremely conciliatory in tone, and was
especially designed to make il plain
that the Government is not anti-re-
nSlQuS. Dul only neutral lie referred
deferentially to the Pope's moral au-
thority." and completely disarned the
clericals by his intimate knowledge OF
what happened during the recent
meeting Of the French Bishops, when a
majority Of ten voted in favor of COM
plying with the law The Chamber of
Deputies by $40 to 9S votes. ordered
the speech to be placarded at the cross
roads throughout France.
In view Of the tremendous majority
the Cabinet has already received inti-
nations that the Pope is preparing TO
accept the inevitable, or that at any
rate there viii be another meeting of
the episcopate shortly and that its re
port, which viii be conciliatory, viii
be confirmed.
Minister Of, Labor Vivian's speech in
the Chamber of Deputies, in which he
painted a picture of the new socialistic
regime at which France is aiming. con-
