Beautiful Memorial 20 Chicago Woman
Lowered From Liners Side.
One of the most beautiful memorial
services ever held on an ocean liner
was reported by the offices of the
North German Lloyd steamer KOenigin
Luise, which arrived at New York re-
Gently from Naples, says the New
York Times. On the vessels last voy-
age from Europe Mrs. Chalmers Prem
tice, the wife Of DIR. Prentice Of Chi
cago, a cabin passenger, died.
1t was decided to bury the body at
sea in spite of the protest Of a young
daughter who was travelling with her
mother. The officers alleged that the
representative on board Of the Italian
government would not permit the body
10 be brought to port.
When the Koenigin Luise sailed
from this side Captain Morgenstein
took out a magnificent box Of flowers.
The course of the vessel was closely
watched, and when the liner passed
near the spot where q few weeks be-
fore the body of Mrs. Prentice had
been cast into the sea the flowers were
brought on deck. The ships pasSen-
gers crowded to the rail with uncov-
cred heads, and the box was silently
lowered over the side and sent adrift
over the unmarked grave In the ocean.

DR.. SLOVENIAN PLEADS FOR NEGRO.
All Men Not Really Equal in America,
He Saws.

In his sermon on Lincoln and the Race Prob
lem" at Temple Emanuel yesterday morning
the Rev. DR.. Joseph Silyerman said that
Americas progress in "degeneracy' appeared
10 him to be pretty stupid; that as a nation
we begin by declaring that all men are created
equal and now practically word it An men
are equal except the Negro" He said, in part:
When the know-nothinGs get il It viii read
"All men equal except Negroes and for
eigners" When it comes TO this shall prefer
emigration TO some country where they make
pretence Of loving liberty-to Russia, for m
stance, where despOtiSm can be taken pure ana
the country is still divided on the Negro Ques-
ton. It is no longer a question Of slavery, but
a question OF race equality. In this race prob
lem we should use the rule of 'nOblesse oblIGe,
and should follow the rule that the strong should
help the weak the superior deal kindly with
the inferior
The immigration question is again before us
in all its heinous features. 1t is seriously pro-
posed TO vigorously limit immigration and to
apply educational test to all who seek en-
trance at our shores. The usual arguments
have been advanced that immigrants coming to
this country in great numbers cannot so readily
be assimilated and form independent groups,
who disturb the economic and social conditions
Of the country, to say nothing of the effect upon
the political status. 1t IS quite significant that
the American Federation of Labor is reSpon-
sible for the present agitation for restriction Of
emigration, and the inference is jusihable that
patriotic one I believe that the desire Of the
federation IS to vigorously restrict immigration
so that strikes will be more effective and wages
made higher
