LEsE MAJEsTY.-King Edward and
the Queen of England while at Ma
pies met with an unusual experience
while engaged in sightseeing, I'M
attended. Arriving in front of the
church of Santa Chirara, their males
ties approached intending to enter
the edifice. Finding it closed, as
the monks were taking their mid
day meal, a member of the royal
party knocked on the door for ad-
mittance. A monk came to the door
and opening a chink said: "Begone
in peace; there is nothing for you
herer" doubtless installing them for
beggars, and when the rapping was
repeated, irritably shouted: Don't
bother me; this is no time for sight
seeingr" Gen. Sala, who was pass
ing, recognized the visiting sover-
eigns, ordered the monk to open the
door. When he recognized the mis-.
take he had made his embarrassment
knew no bounds.

THE TRUE BASIS OF PATRIOTISM Is

THE TRUE BASIS OF PATRIOTISM Is
PRINCIPLE.-Patriotism is usually
defined as devotion to ones country
and its institutions. Children in
cur public schools and young men
in universities are taught that they
should love their country; that they
can only become good citizens by
honoring those in authority. At the
same time they are told and taught
that Washington, Jefferson and 9TH
ers whose efforts contributed to-
wards achieving our independence
were noble examples of patriotism,
and no thought seems to be accorded
the fact that those great men were
rebels against the then existing
English government, and if caught,
would have been hanged as traitors.
Christians of all nations worship
Christ Jesus, yet it is o verify He
was crucified because He was in re-
volt against the then lawful author.
ity. While all this is true, it by
no means follows we should COM
mend treason by blind obedience to
the powers that be. Patriotism, in
its broader sense, should be in
terpreted as devotion to the cause oil
Liberty and Justice. Even consti'
tutions were made for men, and moi
men for constitutions. The Lord
created mankind before governments
made citizens. No precedent is
needed to do right. 1t has been as
serted that our scholastics and pro-
fessional men are too much given tC
praising dead mems laws and laugh
ing at dead mems jokes. Develop
ment and growth are going on about
us all the while; nature never stands
still. What may be right and prop.
er in one age may become false and
pernicious in another.

What II WhiskyP

Acknowledgement Bonaparte has
solved that vexed question of just
what whisky may be, and report says
that it is warranted by information

samples of the articles under consid-
Grafton for classification. Nobody
will doubt that his opportunity for a
correct opinion have been ample.
Under ruling he has made, he de-
clares that straight whisky is

it is a distilled spirit from grain
corn, wheat, rye or barley-the pure,
unadulterated article, only changed
by the maturity of age. Blend whis-

combination of straight whisky and
ethyl alcohol, provided there is suffi-
cient amount OF pure, or straight
whisky, to preserve its identity,
which is not always the case, when it

whisky is. Us its name indicates, a
compound of burnt sugar, fusel oil,
or fuselol, ethyl alcohol and other in
gredients-some of which are poison

Grating effects Of spirituous or ardent
drinks.
This classification is the outcome
of demand by DR.. Wiley of the Ag-
ricultural Department to place whis-
ky where it may belong in the Pure
Food law. This decision will result
in all so-called WHISTLES being labeled
according to these classifications, only
the first being pure. When, there

Gated establishing and keeping in
communication with prices at the
business centers during the produc-
ing season, he did not place sole re-
lance on that, as means of guard
ing against loss. Here is his plan
for that alternative. Soon as it be-
comes evident that crop may not
reach market from shrub or vine, in
a perfect state, it is simply placed in
quart cans, that may be obtained by
the carload ct a small cost, filled
with water without sugar. placed in
boiling tank till all air is expelled,
and then the tiny hole left in the lid
for its escape is sealed with a drop OF
solder. Any small fruit thus pre-
pared will keep for any length o.
time, and many loads were shipped
to the large cities and found a ready
market. 1t is not necessary, when {
reputation is thus established, t.
ship in the form of jell, or in high
priced jars, with elaborate and many
colored labels. He gave want O
knowledge of this fact as a probably
cause of the failure of the Scobey
packery, of this place, a few year
ago.

HILL
CLUB FORMED
By DEMOCRATS s

largo number of prominent Demo-
Gratis Of Ward met last evening i'm Vim
cent building on Gladstone avenue and
formed the Capitol Hill Democratic club.
Augustine Giblin presided and William J..
Cain acted as temporary secretary. Some
IS persons expressed their desire to be-
come members of The club.
While tho new Organization is chiefly
made up of men from the Smiths Hin
districts, as will be seen by the list OF
officers, the purpose is TO make the club
a ward organization. Former Council
man Giblin. who was elected president.
and former Councilman John T. Raftery.
who was chosen treasurer. have been
long and consistent opponents Of Alder
man John G. Dunn. The other officers
are: First vlce-president. Edward Hol-
land; second vice-president. JohN p. Mas
terson: recording secretary William j.
Cain; house committee, Thomas III. Dunn,
Arthur w. Grandfield, Arthur +. Moran.
Hugh r. Balentine, Daniel O'Connor.
James r. Mcdonnell, John j. Regan, G.
j. Kavanaugh. and Frank T.. McKenna.
A suite OF very handsome rooms on the
ground floor OF the Vincent building has
been hired by the club 1t is the pur-
pose OF the organizers to make these
rooms rallying places for men devoted To
true Democratic principles whether they
reside in Ward 3 or not. Never did po-
lltical organization in Ward start out
under better auspices.

FRESH AIR"
SCHOOL IDEA
IS ADVOCATED

The executive committee of the school
committee at its meeting yesterday IN
the Classical High school unanimously
adopted "A recommendation which Will be
presented TO the school committee at It's
next meeting for the establishment of a
fresh air school,"
The plan is TO provide a school where
children with weak bodies may be prop
erly cared for This. it is believed, VIII
prevent tuberculosis, and fit the children
to withstand disease better. The plan
has the hearty endorsement of physicians
and the school authorities.
Judge Rueckert. the chairman, is en-
thusiastic i'm the matter He said:
''The idea OF the executive committee
is to establish n school which Will COM
bine the benefits of an educational in
stitution and sanatorium. We do not
mean by this that the children who at
tend such a school will be victims Of dis
ease, but rather that IL shall be pre-
ventative of disease The idea is new
one but one that should meet with the
hearty Endorsement and cooperation OF
every public-spirited citizen in Provi-
dencc."
Or. Charles V. Chaplin said:
"The work done at the East Side camp
during the summer suggested such an
idea. It is TO be a school for children Of
weak bodies Most of them, if such n
school is opened. will not have tubercu-
losls in any form, but are i'm a position
where they will be particularly liable TO
catch IL If they do not have proper treat
ment and plenty OF fresh air. our idea is
TO start in a small way i'm The Fresh Air
School and when need comes to enlarge
the scope OF the work.
The Meetin sgtreet school is considered
the best for the purpose and If the school
committee adopts the recommendation OF
the executive committee arrangements
will be made with the city for preparing
the school for It's new use.
But one room will be needed at first
and the one selected is the one on the
south side of the school The preparation
OF this room will involve tearing out the
whole side Of the ro6m and substituting
sashes which may be open in fair wealth

The occasion was the installation OF tho

dent OF the university and the celebration
OF the 10Th anniversary OF the founding OF
that institution, which is devoted prima-
rily TO the higher education OF the negro.

the hardships encountered by the negro in
his efforts toward advancement, but
urged that they be looked upon rather az
a privilege and as stimulating great effort.

Mr.. Bryce pointed 10 the development OF
the race during the past 10 years as being
marvellous compared with the develop

IL was left, however. for Mr.. Carnegie
