of Ian MacLaren that his personality as
"a serious and learned minister of the
gospel came as something OF a surprise TO
the general public when first it was re-
vealed, about ten years ago. He was
English by birth. for he first saw the
light at Manningtree. in Essex-a village
known and celebrated in Shakespeare
time for its good cneer-but he was
Scotch by descent and prediction.
He was educated AT St Andrews Uni
versity, the Oldest British university in
existence, and afterward at Yale. taking
degrees at both places. He also took the
n. a. degree at Edinburgh. He was
Lyman-H -Heecher lecturer at Yale in 1876.
and from 1850 until March Of last year
he was minister of the Presbyterian
Church at Seton Park, Liverpool, and
in addition, moderator Of the Synod of
the Presbyterian Church Of England.
Ian MacLaren's first book and great
success was Beside the Bonnie Briar

by reason of his long experience

view of HIS familiarity with the munici-

murderous attack by the Santiago officers

None Of the officials of the State De-

One report Of the occurrence was made
public yesterday through the War Depart
ment. This was the report Of Gov Ma

holds the Tacoma's sailors primarily re-
sponsible for the trouble. The deputy
fiscal states that the sailors had been
drinking and attacked the police without
reason,

information. The Tacoma was ordered

Justice Stafford. of the District Supreme
Court, to-day will set for trial the case

trial set for June II. On the other hand
however. it is thought that there is a
possibility that the case will go over until
fall.
one or the principal witnesses for the
defense is TO be Rev. David Utter, pastor
Of the Unity Church, of Denver, whose
church Mrs. Bradley attended several
years ago at Salt Lake. Rev. Mr.. Utter
believes that the woman was insane at the
time of the shooting and that her mind
had been seriously affected previous tc
the tradegy owing to worry and other
causes.
Rev. Mr.. Utter is anxious to come 10

viii request the board of trustees Of the
Denver Church to grant him leave of alb

Mr.. Utter is Of the opinion that Mrs
Bradley was as much sinned against as
SHINING.
Rev. Mr.. Utter was pastor of the Uni
tartan Church in Salt Lake at the time
that Mrs Bradley and Mrs Brown were
members. Senator Brown also frequently
attended the services. Rev. Mr.. Utter
was later called in by Mrs. Brown, who
was the second wife of the Senator, to
have him use his influence with Mrs
Bradley to persuade her to leave Salt
Lake. Rev. Mr.. Utter was in Denver
then, and made a trip to Salt Lake to
plead with ner.

an address before the Vermont State As

what action would be taken. but admitted
that his firm, Wells. Hoover & Wells. was

I feel quite venerable. The slime In which
We live is the most remarkable in the his
tory Of the world. The world to-day Is
thinking together. Events OF the moment
which occur here in Philadelphia are dis
cussed the same day throughout the civil
ized world. The death of the Pope was
.chronIcled in America two hours before
he died The great knowledge Of things
known and unknown obtained from the
universities of the country is constantly
blazing the way for greater knowledge
and greater developments
Ignorance has also its advantage In
a recent conversation with the distln-
guished scientist, Alexander Graham Bell,
he stated 10 me that he discovered the
telephone through his ignorance Of cleo
tricity. Had he a knowledge Of the mys-
teEious workings OF electricity, he said
he never would have made the applica-
tion OF it which made the telephone q
success. This is a source Of consolation
TO us all who did not master the whole
curriculum OF the university course. and
as another coincidence, our wisest thinkers
differ on material points While in Tr0u-
vile. France, "A few years ago, I met
Baron ROthschild, the head Of the great
European banking house, and he said:
Your country has made a great blum
der in acquiring the Philippines Il will
in time involve the United States in for
eign complications and war
soon after my return to America I met
u. PieTpont Morgan. lie said:
'R0thschild IS wrong The acquisition
of the Isle of Luzon for cOaling station
will prove of incalcalable value to our
country. SO great minds differ in regard
to material matter relating TO the future
of our own great government.
MY observation in the practical walks
of life since I left college is that the ma
jority has the tendency of the sheep to
follow leaders. while the minority does its
own thinking; therefore, it is my belief
that minOrities are more frequently cor
rect than maj0rities.'
Among the members Of the class present
were John B. Thayer, vice president of the
Pennsylvania Railroad; Charles F. Inger-
soil. director of the Pennsylvania Rail
road. Alfred w OFT. Gustavus Remak
jr., and Thomas D. Fuiletter. leading
members of the Philadelphia bar; Edward
B. Smith and W Hinkle Smith, bankers;
.J. Franklin McFadden, Charles E. Hex
mier. Howard Deacon, and others, who
have distinguished themselves in their
several professions.
Col Randle went TO Philadelphia in
1878 from Mississippi and won the prize
scholarship from the public schools of
Philadelphia to the university. He re-
ceived an ovation from his old classmates
and made the speech of the occasion.

and is as follows:
i have your letter Of the 9th uitimo.

the District of Columbia. inviting me to
be one of the speakers at the Labor Day
celebration in Washington on the first
Monday in September. I most heartily
