JOSEPH JOACHIM.

Joseph Joachim, the great violinist
who died this week at Berlin, came
of German ancestry, and was born in
1881 at Kittsee, in Hungary. At s
years "the genius boy, as one of the
Budapest critics called him, made his
debut. In 1899 he went to Vienna,
where he became a pupil Of Joseph
Boehm. At IL Joseph Joachim was
a full fledged artist. He was taken TO
Leipsic, and Mendelssohn was so en-
chanted that he offered to superin-
tend the child's further education.
He became a second father to the
boy. and early in 1914 sent him to
London with letter of Introduction
to Moscheles. His London debut was
made in the Drury Lane theater the
same year. From 1868 Joachim made
his home in Berlin, where he founded
the famous quartet bearing his
name.

Fort Dodge. Ia, Aug. 17.-The
ghostlike apparition of girl astride
a bicycle aitting about the streets al

in the east end any longer. For weeks
pedestrians abroad late at night have
been scared.
Clad in a flowing white garment
with hair streaming behind her and
the gas lamps revealing bare feet
and ankles, the ghost rider had ex-
cited a good deal OF interest as well
as fright. Several attempts made 10

the bicycle always disappeared.
Tonight a policeman, attracted by
crash and a scream, ran round
corner and solved the mystery. He

refused by the general council on

That's cheap enough. The licenses
were refused at Eleventh street and

DIVISION OF GOVERNMENT.

The declaration of Acting Secre-
tary of Agriculture w. NJ. Hays. that
the cooperation Of state and local
laws is needed in the inspection Of
meat products, indicates that, while
there are broad questions or national
importance growing out OF our com
pick Interstate dealings, with which
states can not deal effectively, there
are also matters with which the ma
tional laws are failing TO cope. Great
packing houses doing an interstate
business may be regulated by govern
mental supervision. but the local alb
Iattoirs, and the small concerns. do
ing a strictly state business, are be-
meath the notice of the nation, and
they may continue selling products
TO their home people, that violate the
sanitary Laws of the nation. Thus we
see our dual form of government is
not in the least threatened by ma
tional interference. Those matters
that affect the whole nation are very
properly controlled by the national
Legislation, and those matters az
fecting each community separately,
properly come under local control.
This is a common sense view Of the
question, but the constitution has
been very ably construed. Courts
since the days of Marshall and Story
have had due regard to the rights OF
states. and generally limit them
selves to the application Of the legal
questions involved in the controversy
at bar. Back to the. constitution" is
an empty cry, because for more than
century we have been going back
to the constitution and getting our
national head bumped against II ev-
cry time we have contrayened its pro-
visions. There is only one interpret
er of the constitution, and that is the
supreme court of the United States;
and the election of a president and
congress on a platform Of Back to
the constitution" would scarcely af-
feet the conditions, unless the presi-
dent and congress should undertake
to interpret the constitution for them
selves.

We have schools of oratory, theo-

schools for congregations, where we
may be taught the art of introspec-

value of ethical lectures. A preacher

We listen to lectures on social unrest,

with their two hands and their heads,

on strikes. We grope through life,

RARE RICHARD MANSFIELD.

SHOulQ hlCndTd MdnsUelO never re-
turn to the stage the public would
lose an artist. whose place IN the
drama could not be filled by anyone,
now known to fame. Mr.. Mansfield
was gifted with no physical charms,
but possesses defects that would
keep any ordinary person below the
order of mediocrity. These seemed
to make him work the harder. de-
handed extraordinary attention to
detail, to the accessorial part of the
production. TO the subtleties of the
art. A man of commanding physique,
voice and presence could never reach
the position attained by Mr.. Mans
field: for his physical charms would
outweigh in the public estimation his
graces of intellect and accomplish
ment. and box Office considerations
would dictate a policy OF keeping to
the front those attributes that the
public like and is willing to pay TO
enjoy.
While Mansfield has conscientious
ly produced something new and
characteristic every year OF his star
ring career, he might have played an
annual round of Beau Brummel, Pa
rision Romance. King Richard III.
and Prince Karl. No other player on
the stage today has created charac-
tiers that live as these do in the pub
| lie estimation.
The stage Ill afford to lose so
great an artist. so extravagant pro-
Queer. His idiosyncracies are his own,
and nobody's business, except, per-
haps. his press agents, but the. artist
belongs to us. May the vain, artiti-
cial strutting, self-sacrifieing, ridieu-
lous, lovable Beau come back to us.
Mansfield has more temperament In
his little finger. than the rest of them
can aggregate in their whole beings.

VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
Bible Truths.


The inconsistency of protesting to
believe the Bible to be the standard
of truth, yet disbelieving parts Of 1t.
Such belief of the Bible and general
unbelief of it is unreasonable.
Many Bible truths are rejected be-
cause they cut across customs and SUI
premely loved things of the naturally
perverted mind. and pride. BY such
example is denial of professed belief,
and unbelievers are strengthened I'M
.unbelief.
Examples of Inconsistency: One
man rejects the plain account OF Gre
alton: another man accepts it, but
disbelieves as plain an account of mi
racles. Both accounts convey Z
meaning of literalness as clearly as
our every day words of common in
tercourse. Much more than they
think. men have lost the true know
edge of God. and vainly imagining TO
measure and limit the power of God
they invert figures and allegories
where there are none, and a multi
tude of differences arise.
ANY man taking license TO doubt
and reject some plain Bible statement
thereby gives liberty To every man
TO reject any plain Bible statement.
Such practise makes the whole Bible
void and makes every man himself
the standard of authority, virtually
exalting himself above God. BY the
common knowledge that man Is fall
lfble every one can readily see how
Inconsistency can but result in con
fusion, or Babylon instead of
knowledge of the truth.
The infidel too is inconsistent ana
quite unreasonable. The infidel Is an
unbeliever of the religion of the BIZ
Bile. doubling that the Bible is the
thought of God. There is a true,
satisfying way of overcoming his
doubts, a sober consideration Of
which will reveal his sincerity With
out a question he knows that the
fruit tree is not a work of man. He
sees in it a wisdom, power and beau
ty that Is not of man. Its fruit Is
pleasing TO the eve and taste, and a
food to body and mind, all of which.
proving the creator OF the tree as a
being of pure love. goodness and wis
dom, in the fact that the benefits of
the tree are for beings besides the
creator. The nature of its creator is

Compare the foregoing. facts oil
our outer senses. to the Bible account
of the creation of vegetation, Gen. l.:

harmony of both. Also consider that
in the creation Of vegetation before
the creation of the moving creature
is shown that provision for the NOV
ing creatures Of qualification and sus-
tenance that manifest just that love,
GOODNESS and wisdom that Is
in every way fitting to the
God OF the Bible. TO create
the moving creature. or any other
creature without providing for It's
happy continuance would depict =

This so evident harmony between
the works and word of God Is Key
Of lnestimabie worth for overcoming

Who possess the wealth of the
country? On paper the value of great
single interests overwhelm us, and
we are inclined to judge our own lot
by comparison with values that are
in many cases beyond all reason.
During the year from May, 1906. to
May, 1907, the Typographical union
expended in round numbers, $1,000
loco in the strike, which is not yet
|settled. No printer is worth so
much, yet none of those contributing
to the vast fund, has suffered serious
inconvenience merely on that ac-
count. The real wealth of the country
is distributed among the masses.
Wages are high. because the country
| is prosperous, and unionism Is at the
height of its power and influence, be-
cause there is a demand for labor,
and conditions justify high wages.
The true test of such amalgamations
of independent units comes when
times are hard, and the demand for
! labor slackens and the element OF
competitlon for life itself enters into
the problem of the laDorer. Union
men had better vote for the perpetu-
alton of conditions that have aided
their cause, and pay no attention &c
this talk about reducing prices OF
commodities: for when those prices
slump, production will slump and la
Dor win go tumbling after produc-
ton. The results of state elections
this fall, may have a distinct bearing
on the national results a year hence.

tied on to prevent them from falling
on.
Finally about midnight, hve hours
after the blizzard struck Windy point,
