the tubercle bacillus 1t is apparently one of opinion, with the public left up in the air, So to speak"
 And the question might also be ex- tended. Did the discussion and con- clusion of the Congress really settle anything definitely with regard to the White Plague which is desoiating the civilized world? If the learned and experienced medical scientists and practitioners differ regarding the iden- tity of consumption germs how .can they be expected to agree on a mode of treatment? And if they differ as to the proper way of treating the dis ease how can we hope that anything has been gained in the way of curing or preventing one of the most dreaded of human scourges? The Tuberculosis Congress was composed of many of the most learned experts from all parts of the globe and it was confidently hoped that they would agree on some means of abating consumption and all Its horrible results, but was anything really accomplished that will benefit humanity? It Is discouraging, to say the least.

along the streets with no motive pow CT but that which he caught with his kite; and he would see the big city a blaze of light proceeding from the same source. Beyond a doubt old Ben would wonder if he was on the same earth that was familiar to him while he lived. He and Penn would probab- ly' find themselves hopelessly lost and bewildered amidst the whir and hustle and noise on every side and would probsbry 50 back to their quist resting places feeling that they were fortun- ate in dying when they did.
 . Philadelphia does well to celebrate its 225th birthday. and to honor it's founder. There are some things about the City of Brotheriy Love of which there is no tesSon to feel proud. There Is much connected with its government and the mana cement of it's affairs that would make It's founder blush with shame over the degeneracy of these later days. but on the other hand there's much to be proud, of and re- toice over. With all its faults and shortcomings It Is one of the great cities of this great Republic.

A CITY,S BIRTHDAY.

The city of Philadelphia has just been having a jubilee over the fact that she is now two and a quarter cen- turtles old, and is we'll grown for her age. In fact, she Is really gay old girl, and can hold her own with the best of them. True. the city has long been in the grasp of a political ma chine about as bad as any city in this country has been cursed with, but that seems to be the fate of most large cities in this country. as we'll as else where.
 Wouldn't 1t be interesting to watch the eountenance of old Father Penn if he could come back and travel about his City of Brotherly Love? We do not know, of course, whether he looked forward through the passage of cen- turtles and foresaw the time when the tiny shrub he planted in the woods of 7 Pennsylvania 225 years ago would be now the home and abiding place of one and one half millions of people of all coloFs, sorts and races. He would see inventions and appliances of which his widest imagination could have no conception, and business enterprises of q magnitude he never even dreamed of It might be that in his fancy he would imagine that in the course of many centuries he would see a great city grow up as London had grown, but he could not have expected such city as Philadelphia to grow up in little more than two centuries as it has done.
 And that good old American phil osopher. Benjamin Franklin, who left the earth one hundred and eighteen years ago, would also see much to sur prize him if he could come back to the great city and look about him. Es- peclaIly would he be astonished to witness the growth and development of the electric fluid which he was first to harness, and to demonstrate in a crude way that 1t could be controlled and made mans servant. He would see great shops, mills and factories whose .immense machines are driven by elec- sGrte power. He would see great print ing presses of a size vastly beyond his dreams compared to which the small and rude presses of his day were mere embryos. He would see ears loaded with passengers coursing

DYING FROM STARVATION.

How true it is that most of us do not know of the sufferings of others. We read of the terrible events going on in foreign countries but are little affected by tragedies nearer home. A few days ago in the great city of New York a man fell dead in one of the 'bread lines" as they are termed These are rows of hungry men, women await their turn to be handed a loaf of bread. Thfs' poor man fell and died. and the physicians who exam ined him declared that his death was due to starvation. This in the largest city of the Union where wealth is al-
 most unlimited. and where money is aI- most a burden to thousands.
 Again: we have just read a news item stating that fifteen thousand school children are starving in Chi cago." Among the causes given for this deplorable state of affairs Is lack of employment of the parents and the increased cost of living. Here is an- other Of the great cities of the country where there are untold millions of money. It can be freely used for pur- poses of dress. amusement, personal enJoyment-often for improper pur- poses. but none can be spared to save suffering and starving little ones who may starve and die while others live in Iuxuary. What wrong have these children done that they are shut off from even food enough to keep life in them? Why should wealth be pour ed out in lavish streams by some while the helpless children of others are starving? Will not their gaunti faces, their tottering steps and hungry eyes haunt those who might save them but win not?
 And these things and numerous oth- CTS are going on in this enlightened age. in this land of plenty and among a Christian people. It Is not always possible for even the kind-hearted to know of the suffering that is going on around them. and in many instances people are too proud to let it be known that they are in need, but conditions such as are reported from Chicago ought not to exist. There ought in that great city to be some organization to look out for the suffering and re- lieve their wants. To allow children to starwe by thousands in a great city is worse than a crime on the part of those who could relieve them if they would. Let all read and ponder the 18th chapter of 4st Corinthians and heed its beautiful and touching pre- eepts.

WAS ANYTHING sEr.rIEDs

It is discouraging, to say the least of it, to read of the disagreement among the prominent medical men who assembled in the recent International Tuberculosis Congress at Washington. It Is discouraging to find that Dr. Koch's theory of tuberculosis was con- demned and himself virtually dis credited. This great German scientist has been regarded as the real discov- erer of the germ theory as it affects consumption in human beings, and wherever the subject of baei1li is spoken of as connected with pulmon- ary diseases the name of Koch has been looked on as going hand-in-hand with the existence of such germs.
 But the great doctor sprung some- thing of a sensation on the Congress when he announced that he had proven that the tubercle bacillus which affects human beings Is not identical with tie. In short, he asserts that the dan gerous disease cannot be conveyed from cattle to human beings. but that 1t must be communicated exclusively and solely from one human to another. One might have thought that the great attainments and reputation of this eminent German scientist would be sufficient to convince the Congress, but not so. That body resolved" that the tubercIe bacillus in cattle is identical with that in human beings. thus direct ly condemning the Koch theory.
 This we repeat is dlscouraging and as The Indianapolis Star remarks. the question now is, does that resolution really settled anything? Either the tubercle bacillus of the diseased COW is identical with tubercle bacillus of the diseased man. or 1t is not. Koch says it it not; his opponents say it is. But what is the innocent outsider to believe? Can he be expected after all these years of scientific laudation of Koch, to accept the theory that the German scientist does not know tu- bercle bacillus when he sees it? Is he to believe that majority vote proves anything in a matter of this kind? What he would like to understand is why there should be quarrel over the matter. If the pesky little germs are alike why not demonstrate it? Why not collar them, photograph them and show their identity? Science is sup posed to deal wholly with facts that may be proved, but in this question of

novelty has worn on. Some of the crucial questions which ct first arose concerning 1t have been answered. Essay has become achievement. Yet interest in the voyage. though less denonstrative, is probably no whit less earnest or less strong than 1t was when the "far-fung battle line" steam cd past the cspes of Virginia or wound its periious way through the tortuous Straits of Magellan. Indeed. every knot trayersed In safety and every friendly greeting in a diAtart port has increased the quiet pride of Americans in their fleet and has deepened the undenaonstrative in- terest in its <unprecedented persornl. ance.
 Tn one important particular 1t is cause for sincere qualification. through not, In our mind. for surprise. that there has been such subsidence, or rather that there has been opportunity and Justification for such subsidenees of the more conspicuous and ciarnorous manifestations of popular concern. There never was, as we have all along, believed and have frequently declared any adequate ground for the fore bodings of mischief which were uttered a year ago when the voyage of the fleet was undertaken. It was predicted at that time that the naassing of our snlps In the Pacinc would be resented by at least one great Pacific power as menace or an affront. and that the withdrawal of so large q part of the navy from the Atlantic, leaving this coast connpa ratively unprotected, would probably lead to some eFlbarrassing if not disastrous complications. We are not in the least surprised that all those Ill advised croakings have come to nausht. but that they have isnons the less pleasant to record. ft is being demonstrated that we are able to send around the world incomparably the most powerful fieet that has ever undertaken such voyage. with precision of movement and freedom from delays and fhishaps which testify convincingly to the superb construction; equipment. and management Of the navy, and without a perceptible trace Of peril to ourselves orof ofsense or annoyance to any other power. Such a demonstration. carried successfully to the end, adds new honoFs to the nobiest traditions of the service.

St. Louis society woman has brought up anew an old complication that we saw hammered at long ago. All society women are liars" is the assertion she makes. Now if that Is true, she is a liar. as She Is A society woman. If she has lied then all so- ciety women are not liars. If they are not liars she is not liar and tells the truth when she says that all 9f them are liars, and thus the argument goes back and forth and there is no end to 1t. Repeat it as much as one will and it always doubles back on itself and returns to the starting point
