Begins by Quoting Text

But II has not been given TO me 10
exercise that great influence which was
his and which shone forth from him as
he stood before men upon platform.
And yet 1 have felt that on this Sunday
morning IL was necessary for ME to
make such effort as l could TO follow
him in something that may sound a bit
like a sermon And as sermons are be-
gun with a quotation Of a text, having
more or less relation to give you a
text from Proverbs: A soft answer
turneth away wrath. but grievous
words stir up anger
1t is a text that has enforced itself
upon my mind during the last 10
years with especial emphasis because L
have come into contact with oriental
peoples and with those descended from
the Latin races of Europe, and l have
had chance 10 compare their views of
life and their methods of speech and
their social conventions and amenities
with. those OF the Anglo-Saxon race.
Much TO Learn of Others
We Anglo-Saxons are. we admit, a
great race. We have accomplished
wonders in hammering out against odds
that seemed insurmountable the prin-
ciples OF civil liberty and popular gov
ernment and making them practical
and showing to the world their benefits.
But in so doing and in the course of
our life il seems to me we have ignored
some things that our fellows of south
ern climes have studied and made much
Of. and that is the forms of speech and
the method of everyday treatment be-
tween themselves and others.
At first that seems superficial to US,
who prefer no and yes and abrupt
methods and communications in the
shortest and curtest sentences, but, my
friends, we have much to learn from
people Of that kind of courtesy and
politeness.
Little Acts Make Character
The truth is that mans life with
his family, with his wife, with his
children, with his mother, with his
neighbor, is not made UP of grand
stand plays and defiance of the ele-
ments and all that sort of thing. 1t
is made up by a series of little acts
and those little acts and those little
seIf-restraints are what go to make
I'D the mans character
L agree that there are men, and
many of them, ] hope. who are a great
deal better than they seem to be in
their families and to their wives, and
TO their children, and to their neigh
bors. and that when exigencies arise
they do betray and show forth ele-
ments Of strength OF character that
ought to commend them to their fell
1iow citizens and their families.

MANY THINGS DISCUSSED
 AT THE SUMMER CAPITAL
THE AMBASSADOR TO JAPAN A
 VISITOR.
The President Regards Statehood as
 Foregone Conclusion.

Beverly, Aug. 1.-The president talked with the American ambassa- dor to Japan, Thomas J. O'Brien. for more than an hour today. The am bassador went carefully over every question of importance pending when he left Tokio on a leave of absence. MT. O'Brien is to be retained as ann bassadOr and is credited with being as close to the throne as any am bassador at the Japanese court.
 The probability of a break between China and Japan over the Antung- Mukden railroad Improvements was not taken up, since the situation now appears to be adjusting itself and had not become acute when Mir O'Brien left Japan. The president had a long talk with Judge Ira F.. Ab- bolt of New Mexico who called to give the president some information about political affairs in the terri tory. The question of statehood for New Mexico did not enter into the interview, for the president takes it for granted that congress will carry out the partys platform declaration for separate statehood for both New Mexico and Arizona.
 The president is to make several stops in both territories during his western trip.

THE STOCK MARKED
 TOOK ON STRENGTH
United States Steel See-7eJ Unaffeet ed by the General Movement.

New York. Aug. 1.-The most con spicuous movement of the stock mar ket today was in the Louisville and Nashville group. embracing that stock. the Atlantic Coast Line and Nashville Chattanooga and St. Louis. The ad- vance in this group proved effective in sustaining the general list against the force of realizing sales. Union Pacific's sudden advance to a new high record at 207 late in the day transformed the market from weak ness to strength. Another strong point in the list was furnished by the copper industrials and was common also to copper mining stocks in the outside market and elsewhere in the world. Advices of additional orders for steel rails and for cars from the railroads did not prevent a decline in Y. $. Steel The heavness on this stock and of Reading and Union Pa cific while it lasted had more influ- ence on the prevailing sentiment than the strength of the other stocks, ow- ing to the large extent to which op- erations have been carried on through the present campaign. Bonds were firm. Total sales $3,24S.OOO. United States Is coupons declined one per cent.

CHICAGO RAILWAY STRIKE
 TAXES TURN FOR WORSE
THE MEN WANT MORE THAN A
 PROMISE.
A Definite Proposition to Be Submit
 ted Today.

Chicago. Aug. 1.-The street car situation became darker today than it has been at any other time since the union men voted to strike. The failure Of the conferences between the union leaders and the street railway officials gave rise to a growing dis satisfaction among the employees.
 Union officials tonight demanded something besides promises to place before their men, and declare that unless they can get 1t soon they will not be responsible for what occurs.
 At a conference held between the president of the City Railway com pany and the president of the South Side Street Car Mems union, Mir Mitten proposed to give the increase asked. but making the 90 cents an hour scale applicable only to those who have been in service ten years Buckley refused this and said the only thing the unions would accept would be an advance of 90 cents within two years President Roach of the north and west side lines prom ised the union men a definite offer tomorrow.

GRAIN

Chicago. Aug 11.-Wet weather in Red River valley prompted liberal purchases by shorts today and wheat worked into a stronger position, at times displaying decided strength. However. there was free realizing by influential holders on the bulges which effectually checked any strong upward movement.

AnBULANGEs WERE BUSY
Carrying the Old Soldier From the Ranks as We'll as Small Children Who Formed Parts of the Liv- ing Marching Flag.

Salt Lake City, Utah. Aug. 1.-The glare of a midsummer sun, falling with impartial severity upon young and old, thinned the annual parade of the Grand Army of the Republic, feature of the forty third encamp- ment, and wrought still more suffer ing among hundreds of children who participated in the formation of the living flag arranged for the delight of the old soldiers.
 The numerous ambulances patroH- ing the line of march on Main street were in requisition constantly. Dash ing hastily from a place in the ranks to where some exhausted veteran had fallen into the arms of his com rades, the vehicles would visit the flag stand and remove a paIid child. gasping in the motionless air. Side by side in the improvised hospitals along the line of march Lay wrinkIed warriors and little school girls.
 So oppressive was the heat that the plan of calling for the appearance of the living flag in the procession was abandoned and parents sighed with relief as their little ones were restored to them. Incomplete figures show that at least 100 children were taken from the street and from fif- teen to twenty old soldiers were carried in the ambulances. Many of the victims. young and old, recov- cred as soon as they were placed in the shade. Those treated at tn emergency hospital number about forty, fifteen of them Grand Army men, and thirty children. There were no fatalities
 Notwithstanding this discomfort, the parade was magnificent Five thousand old soldiers, walking four abreast, had the complete right-of- way over a mile of street 100 feet in width. Every sort of vehicle was ex- cluded from their path and ropes and guards confined the throng of spec tators to the sidewalks and the re- viewing stands. Fully 100000 per sons saw the spectacle.
 Every division got its need of ap- plause, as with playing band and in dicating pennants, it swung into the arc of view. They came not with the accountrements of war but with the insignia of peace and industry. The Nebraska delegation carried ears of yellow corn; Sunflower was the badge of Kansas. Minnesota veterans were the bearers of sheafs of wheat and the Green Mountain Boys of Yer mont wore sprigs of pine in their hats.
 The business session of the Won- ans Relief Corps began this ;-- noon. An address by National Pres ident Mary L. Gilman, in which she reviewed the history and work of the order during the past year occupied much of the session. There was a presentation of gifts to many of the retiring officers. That none of the sufferers prostrated by heat of the day are in a serious condition was the ann9uncement made at the emer- gency hospital this evening

Showing That Lieutenant Sut-
 tOnCOu|d Not Have Shielded sERG'T ,TODD's EVIDENCE
Though Not Entirely Con firmatory of Published Interview, It Contradict ed the Testimony of Sut- tons Brother Officers.

Annapolis. Md, Aug. IA grew some feature was this afternoon in troduced into the inquiry regarding the death of Lieutenant James N. Sutton Jr of the United States ma rine corps when the legal represen- tative of Mrs. Sutton, mother of the dead lieutenant. brought to the wit ness stand Dr. Edward Shaeffer of Washington, an expert on gunshot wounds.
 The people in the room crowded around the table and gazed with keen interest on the doctor while he placed upon the table glistening skulls. to the exterior of one of which he affixed. in little Jumps of wax, steel rods intended to indicate the course of the bullet in the skull of Lieutenant Sutton. The doctor stretched himself upon the table and showed by pantomime how, in his opinion as an expert, it was quite impossible that Lieutenant Sutton could have fired itno his own head the shot that killed him.
 The witness declared that Lieute- nat Sutton could not possibly under the circumstances described in the testimony to exert sufficient pull on the trigger to discharge the weapon.
 When the court adjourned. the cross examination of Dr. Shaeffer was in progress. The evidence of Sergeant Todd, touching shich con siderable interest has been aroused by the publication of an alleged in terview. while 1t did not confirm the interview, in whole brought into off cial evidence some points not in con sonance with the testimony previously given by the officers of the marine corps.

 Mr Ballinger then sat down and would not be disturbed by questions. There is a little note following each notation on the published program in Viting delegates to ask questions and enter into a discussion with speakers MT Ballinger answered it and then left the platform. The next speaker was A. c. Campbell. who discussed the legal aspects of property rights in ir- rigation.
 Pardee's Assault.
 Former Governor Pardee then took the platform to deliver an address up- on the subject assigned to him. But he had no use for his manuscript He opened by saving that he was for Roosevelt and the Roosevelt policies. Roosevelt was a president who did things first" said he "and talked about them afterward. And that's the kind of men We would like to see In public office now"
 Pardee told of the activities of for mer Secretary Garfield. who, under the instruction of President Roosevelt. withdrew from public entry many tracts of land under the belief that these lands should be held for the peo- pie. Now, he said. Secretary Ballin- ger has again put up for entry these lands. and each tract has in its boun- daries a water power site.
 'I do not oppose private enterprise in the development of these sites" said Pardee. but I do oppose giving away immense rights to private corporations which in a few years will hold the same political control over cities and states that the railways now hold as a result of the magnificent gifts made them when tey were asking for help to construct. We know the corruption that has resulted from railway con- trol. Shall We now hand out to a new form of corporate power our institu- tions?
 When" pleaded the speaker. "are We going to have a chance for the common. hard-working citizen? Sec retary Ballinger has said that irriga- tion is not a proposition for a poor man. l take issue with him and say it is particularly poor mans proposi- tion. and if there is any one trying to make il not so let's find out about it."
 Turner's Rebuke.
 Senator Turner during these re- marks had left his place in the rear Of the hall and was sitting behind the speaker As Pardee concluded Turner

JAPANESE AGGRESSION
 ALARMING 10 RUSSIA
Movements Amounting Almost to a
 Violation of the Portsmouth Treaty.

St. Petersburg, Aug. 11.-Apprehen- sion has been aroused in political cir cles here by the energy displayed by the Japanese in pushing the recon struction of the Antung- Mukden rail- road, the strategic importance of which is fully realized. Even a greater degree of disquietude has been caused by the Japanese plans for a naval base at the mouth of Tumen river to be connected by the railroad with Kirin. This project is considered verging on an infraction of the Portsmouth treaty.
