Speaker Tells Audience what Con-
stituteS True ManIiness."

Every Inch a Man" was the topic Sc
lected by Edmund w Booth. general
manager of the Grand Rapids Evening
Press. at the meeting in the gymnasium
Of the y. n. c. A yesterday afternoon.
"True manliness," said the speaker, lis
not based on physical prowess or intel
lectual ability, but upon character. The
man who, by reason Of his judgment and
his conscience, has chosen the right path
and. in the face of temptations, has con-
tinued in it. is the true. manly man. For
tilted by purity Of conscience and an Un-
aIterable decision to succeed, there are
no heights TO which he may not attain"
Aside from a theological point of view,
MIR Booth asserted that from the stand
point of worldly affairs, the only true
successes and the enjoyments thereof
are TO be found by leading the simple.
honest. clean life OF the follower OF the
Saviour. This. he said, was exempliied
by one Of the sayings of Christ Himself,
What doth it profit mau?'
Following Mr Booths address, the
usual club meetings were held, at which
addresses were made by Commissioner
Mcfarland, Or. Morris Miller. and
Charles II. Treat.

PRAISES CLUB WOMEN'S WORK.
DIR. Kent Approves Deeds of Fed
Grated Organizations.

The great work being done by the
club women of our country was the
theme of the Rev. Alexander Kent. Of
the Peoples Church. at Pythian Temple.
yesterday morning. The address, in part,
follows:
What the women of this country real
ly want they are likely to get. What they
set out earnestly to do they are pretty
certain 10 accomplish. It is worth while.
therefore, TO keep an eye on them and
see what they are after and what they
are doing to further their aims. Recent
ly, quite a little light has been thrown
upon this matter through the publica-
ton Of a series of articles in The An
nails of the American Academy Of PO-
litical and Social Science.
The General Federation of Women's
Clubs now contains, we are told. 5000
clubs. with a membership of 500 600 wom-
en-. Clearly such an organization must
be a great power in the life of the ma
tiOn. Through its pure food committee
it has accomplished much. Even the un-
believing in the value of women's work
in public affairs have had 20 admit that
the work Of the federation in this field
has been Of potent influence in securing
the passage of the pure food bill The
art committee has sought to improve the
artistic sense of the people Works Of
art have been placed upon the walls Of
our public schools. art leagues have been
formed, and interest aroused in the dec
Grafton of public buildings. the erection
of monuments park gates, and drink
ing fountains.
One club alone has expended $4,000 in
schOolroom decoration. In the field of
civicS much has been done in beautify-
ing streets. effecting sanitary improve
ments, establishing parks and play
grounds. preserving historic places, and
natural beauties. A notable example of
the last named is the preservation of the
Palisades of the Hudson.
Women's clubs are becoming a mighty
factor in the civilization of the century.
and are creating an army of builders
which viii not only be a potent force
in the present generation. but viii trans

MONAGHAN TELLS OF JAPAN

Says England Has Japanese Alliance
Front as Well Educated People.

Prof J. c. Monaghan's lecture last
night on Japan" for the benefit of the
japanese missionaries in that country.
was heard by an audience which taxed
the capacity of Gonzaga Han. Father
FeTTand. OF the order Of French mis-
sionaries. made "a brief address before
the lecture. and explained the object Of
the work. and made a strong plea for
liberal support. Stereopticon views We're
used by Prof. Monaghan toward the close
of the lecture. The pictures were brought
from Japan by the missionary father.
The lecturer began his talk by
strong Illustration Of the help that Chris
tianity can give to the people of the
Orient, and explained why Christianity
is necessary to the japanese. He ended
his introduction by an appeal 10 the char
ity Of Washingtonians TO assist in its
spread.
Continuing. the speaker said. -Four
things have at times been feared by men,
the mountains. the rivers, the ocean. and
the mutual dread of nations. The noun
tains have been tmneled, and what has
been done can be done again. The Tiv-
eTs have been bridged and are subser-

mightiest of elements, is no longer an OBJ
ject of fear Sailors love its power and
dread only the land and the lee shore.
At the approach of the hurricane they fly
from the rocks OF the land and take
refuge on its mighty bosom. But mutual
dread still exists. The nations are afraid
Of each other and are arming themselves.
Never did the bloodiest days of the cru
sGdes see such lust for war and such
show of power.
England. that mistress of the seas,
with her coaling stations in every point
of vantage in the world. has In dipo-
matte language. an alliance with Japan.
In the language of the people. that means
that when Japan fights England fights.
and vice versa. Behind this alliance
stands China, the richest country on the
globe. with the exception OF America. and
richer by far in the matter of natural re-
sources.
The American travels in his aUtomo-
bile. and cloud of dust surrounds him
from the beginning Of his journey 60 the
end. He sees nothing. The Japanese studies
other countries, and does not initiate
them, but adopts the best he finds in
them.
THE wisest Of the japanese want our
religion without our philosophy. The yell

OF brigadier general. was due to the IN
fuence brought to bear by his father

Wyoming, the Senator last night denied
that there Is any truth in the story

tee on Military Affairs.
Il never knew and never saw Capt
PeTshing and no member of my family
had ever even heard Of him, said the
Senator. until listening TO the Presi-
dents message TO Congress three years
ago. In that message the President CON-
plimented Pershing for his exceptional
accomplishments IN the Philippines after
Pershing had already returned. He was
presented 70 my daughter and myself a
day or two after the opening Of Congress
and the delivering Of the message referred
to. so you see couldn't have influenced
his command months or weeks before in
the Philippines. as charged in the state
ment Of the soldier quoted.
Further than this Pershing does not
owe ne anything at all for his subse-
quent appointment as brigadier general,
because il had been considered and prac-
tically promised to friends OF Pershing s
and on a matter Of merit alone.

Plans are under consideration by the

Early In the new year practically all
the great systems in the country viii be
the subject of inquiries such as has been

and such as will soon be ordered in rela-
ton to the roads controlled and operated
by James J. Hill.

il is known that practically every rail
road in the United States suspected of
working in combination with competing
licity thrown upon it.

systems, II IS understood that the COM
