gether a misfit when recall that the
aim of the Christian and the Jew after
all is as one. The aim of the Y. M. G..
A is to uplift youth: that also is the
aim of the religion of my birth. The
aim of the Christian Is to encourage
righteousness; that also Is the aim of
the Jew.
THE Christian founders and support
ers of this institution have for an end
the making for better citizenship; that
also is the aim of the religion of the
Jew; and so, while you as Christians
and as Jew may differ in our re-
ligious education, in our traditions
we are absolutely at one in all matters
that tend toward the betterment of
our fellows, the encouragement Of right
acting and clean living, and the Welfare
of our common country
Feels at Home
Assembled then, as you are, for a
high and noble purpose. the purpose of
laying plans for the building of home
for the youth of your great city; a
home that, regardless of their religious
convictions, shall be a magnet for the
young manhood in our midst, that shall
encourage them in high thoughts and
pure hearts, 1 find myself thoroughly
at home among you, and feel that as a
Jew I can heartily join hands and lift
my voice in behalf of your admira BILE
and unselfish work.
Things are better today than they
were yesterday. They will be still bet
ter tomorrow than they are today. A
few decades ago such a gathering as
this would have been impossible. Your
grandfathers would have looked upon
1t as sacrilegious to invite a Jew to a
Christian gathering. to consider ways
and means for the carrying on of Chris
tian work.
my grandfather would have looked
upon 1t as sacrilegius to accept such an
invitation and to sit at the same table
and break bread with Christian. Yet
here we are, sitting side by side in
peace and in good fellowship, loving

Stutterinq.

OF the etiology of suffering we
know nothing definite. Direct inherit
ance is rare. and possibly imitation is
The chief factor when father and son
are affected. There is usually well
marked neurotic inheritance, others in
the family having various forms of
nervous complaints. But / have not
been able to confirm Charcot's state
ment that suffering and ordinary ia
cial paralysis frequently occur in the
same family. Shocks, frights and de-
bility after some acute illness are the
causes to which the onset is most
frequently attributed by parents. Inn
itation is undoubtedly an occasional
cause, children having often been
known to start the habit when put in
charge of suffering nursemaid. A
friend of mine, who was extremely
fond Of horses and was hardly to be
kept out of the stables, acquired a
most obstinate stutter from the groom.
Adenoid negotiations are often met
with and are important as predispos-
ing cause, since they tend to prevent
the proper filling of the chest with
air. When present they should be re-
moved as a preliminary measure, al
though it must not be expected that
their removal will lead to a prompt
cessation of the stutter.-Lancet.

WHO PAID FOR THE pRINks7
Endless Chain Operated by Thirsty
Men on the Mexican Border.

Now. here is the best yarn OF the
lot and good puzzle for the Sunday
papers to print" said the man with
the alkali in his whiskers, when he.
had settled down in the hotel lobby
after long day on the rubberneck
wagon.
Several years ago American silver
coin in Mexico was on the same basis
as Mexican silver was at that time and
still is in the sta.es: it passed at half
it's face value. Drinks in Ell Paso and
in Juarez, the Mexican town across
the line. were bit apiece or 1914
cents, as you fasteners would say.
I'm thosc pa'my days citizen of
FL Paso could go into a drinking en-
porium and buy drink. paying for it
with an American q larter. The bar
tender would hand him back Mexi-
can quarter which was. Of course,
worth 12h cents in Texas.
Then with this Mexican quarter in
his hand the citizen could cross the
bridge to Juarez and there buy an
other drink, laying his Mexican quar-
ter on the bar.
''If the Greaser barkeep should give
him in change an American qua ter
worth 12k cents in Mexico the joyous
citizen could return to Uncle Sans
back yard and repea. the process.
Now. the question is: Who paid
for those drinks?"-N. Y. Sun.

PIKE MONUMENT.
Commentaries the Great Explorers
Deeds.

Colorado Springs.--The climax of
the Pixies peak celebration was
reached Thursday morning when the
huge block of granite, known as the
Pike boulder, was formally presented
to the city as an everlasting memento
of the explorer of the land he spieG
out.
The builder had felt the fashioning
implements Of man. until it was a mon
ument to the energy and foresight Of
the man for whom it was named, as
well as of all those men who have fol-
lowed him in raising a grand inland
empire.
Ten thousand people braved the
dampness of the morning to assemble
under the lowering clouds that hid
from view the peak that has been the
beacon to travellers, and is now haven
around the base of which gather the
health seekers.
The services consisted largely of ad-
dresses by prominent citizens of the
state. Judge John Campbell of the Su-
preme Court of Colorado, Jesse F. Nc
Donald, governor of the state: Chan
cellor Henry A. Buchtel of the Uni
versity of Denver; Congressman
Franklin E. Brooks, and Henry c. Hall,
mayor of Colorado Springs, were the
speakers
Judge Campbell presided, making
the Introductory remarks. and happily
presenting each of the other speakers
in turn.
The unveiling of the monument was
by Sherman McAllister, son of Henry
McAllister, Jr., assisted by four soldiers
of the Twenty-ninth infantry. The boy
laughingly pulled at the string which
held the colors of his country in
place, and the soldiers, at the COM
mand of an officer, sprang to receive
the colors as they parted and fell, that
they might not lie on the ground
Judge Campbell made the formal
presentation of the granite memorial.
The monument is a most unique one.
It is huge bowlder. weighing nearly
fifty tons. It is sixteen feet high and
has tablets on four sides.

THE failure of Congress to act on
the irrevocable resignation OF the
President of the republic of Cuba, or
to elect successor, leaves this coun-
try without a government at time

quires that. pursuant to a request of
President Palma, the necessary steps
be taken, in the name of and by the
authority Of the President of the
United States, to restore order and
protect life and property in the island
of Cuba, and in the islands and keys
adjacent thereto, and for this
purpose to establish therein a
provisional government. The pro-
visional government hereby es-
tablished by direction and In the
name of tie President of the United
States. will be maintained only long
enough to restore order and peace and
the republic may then hold such elec-
tons as many determine The persons
upon whom the permanent govern
ment of the republic shall be devolved

government, conforming as far as may
be with the constitution of Cuba. The
Cuban flag will be hoisted as usual
over all the government buildings of
the island; all of the executive de-
partments and the provincial and mu-
nicipal governments, including that of
the city of Havana. will continue to be
administered as under the Cuban re-
public; the courts will continue to ad-
minister justice and all laws, not in
their nature inapplicable by reason
OF the temporary and emergent nature
of the government, will be in force.
President Roosevelt has been most
anxious to bring about peace under the
constitutional government of Cuba,
and has made every endea7or to avoid
the present step. Longer delay. how
ever, would be dangerous, in view of
the resignation of the Cabinet.
Until further notice tic heads OF
all departments of the central govern
ment will report to me for instructions,
including Gen. Alexandra Rodriguez, in
command of the rural guard, and the
