able silver celebrates m its 4th floor home:

Silver tablewhere is now at home where it really belongs; with glass and china and such up on the fourth floor. It's quarters there are almost-ideal. It can be seen as it deserves to be seen. Condi- tions are more like those under which 1t will be used in the home.
 But all this is going to be of little ben eft to the silver unless folks know where it is. So it invites folks to come and see and judge for themselves; not alone of it's quarters, but of itself and the prices at which it is to be bought. That invitation will be accepted by homekeepers who are wise-for every visitor will have chance to get silver at less than usual price. That is the way the removal is celebrated.
 Rogers & Hamilton are Connecticut Yankees who make table silver that is unusually pretty and unusually durable. Their XII grade has an extra plating up on parts most-exposed to wear and foun- dation is a durable nickel silver. Two patterns of this ware are to be sold in the new fourth-foor sales-room to celebrate the removal of the silver section. Here are the cd prices and the new.

BARNARD GIRLS KINDLY ACT
Seniors, at Sacrifice of Luxuries, Aid
Blind student to Finish
Course.

Through the generosity and self-sacrifice
OF her class mates, the Barnard seniors,
Margaret Hogan. the blind student, who
expected to begin her career as bread
winner soon, will be enabled TO remain for
her fourth year at the college 10 complete
her course and win her A. B.
Four hundred and fifty dollars TO cover
her expenses have been placed in the
hands OF the girl As performance in
high finance II has no equal in Barnard
student annals, relates the New York
World. The money was raised I'm three
days and saved Miss Hogan to the class
by a margin Of forty-eight hours. How
was 1t done2 Ask the girls who went deep
into their monthly allowances, cutting
down all supplies to the bare necessities

all the value Of the large subscriptions. II
was deal in fudge and eioquence and 10y
atty which does great credit TO the class
Of 1911.
It was just before the beginning Of the
present session that Miss Hogan learned
that the fund for her support had been
exhausted and that she would be expected
by the friends who had forwarded her
progress to provide for herself While she
was already well equipped as a teacher
her failure to complete her course and the
absence OF a degree made II necessary for
the blind girl 20 look for a lesser position
than the one she had hoped 10 take. Her
plan had been 20 become an advanced
teacher OF the blind. history being her
chosen subject. and TO teach from the coll
lege standpoint
Miss Hogan, however bravely set about
obtaining the post that must be open 70
her under the altered conditions and ar
ranged to take a place as a teacher OF
blind children in an institution
She had kept her trouble 20 herself, and
the seniors only learned the secret last
week. There was an instant call to arms.

The theatrical season Of 1901, now
fairly under way. gives promise Of being
one OF the most important in the history
OF the American stage. The recent de-
velopments in the internecine strife be-
tween the so-called theatrical syndicate
and the independents" have necessitated
unusual activities on the part OF producing
managers, in order to supply the theaters
with attractions which will keep the local
managers loyal to the interests of one side
or the other. As a result, the present sea-
son probably will see a new record estab-
lished for the number OF new plays pro-
duced. This will be in striking contrast
to last years record, when the smallest
number OF new plays in five years was
placed before the public.
This does not mean, however, that last
year was a season of disaster for the
theatrical business. On the contrary, there
were more phenomenaly successful plays
produced last year than In any previous
year, in spite or the comparatively small
number tried out There were forty-six
plays which ran for more than fifty nights
in the metropolis. while the best previous
record was IN 1866. when there We're
forty-four that achieved that distinction
Seven, plays last year ran for more than
200 nights In New York. with the best
previous records being in 1867 and 1868.
when each had five plays to reach the
two-century mark.
There are approximately 1000 theaters in
America, exclusive OF the moving picture
houses. To furnish entertainment for the
patrons Of these play houses enlists the
services OF more than 10000 people. The
theater, viewed from a business stand
point, Is one Of the most profitable and at
] the same time one OF the most precarious

often means a fortune TO the producer,

fortunes may be swallowed up in the fu-

Revival Of Bitterness in New York

COMMENT OF A LONDON PAPER

Comment.
~ ID NJ FRANCIR.


NEW YORK, oct 22-CSpecial TO The
Bee.)-A great majority OF Americans re-
gard Il a pity that the old controversy be-
tween the Catholic and Protestant churches
should have been revived here as the re-
suit OF the visit Of certain distinguished
prelates to this country. Such a contro-
versy is little likely to do good to either
party and II is almost certain to revive
bitter feelings which have been steadily
dying out in this country. The fact that
the controversy has not aroused any con-
silerlble popular interest is pretty good
evidence that so far as the membership
@, the Christian churches IN America is
concerned there is no material here for re-
Igious warfare.
The London Telegraph speaking Of the
ideal OF the church says;
III the church reviews its progress, or,
perhaps. we should rather say, its check
cred annals. OF the last fifty years, It
would not be unwise to ask itself how far
4 has kept to the original idea Of Christ
that religion Is intended 70 bring men
nearer TO God.
1T is just because the endless disputes
about ritual and ceremonial observances,
the acrimonious controversies concerning
prayer book revision. the arguments as to
particular decisions OF the privy council
tend 70 obscure the primary and vital ele-
ments OF all religion, that some OF those
who are most interested In the preservation
OF the church are victims almost OF despair
IN the perusal OF its history
IF we are 20 bring things back to their
elements, we must say without hesitation
that the first and capital object for which
a church exists is not TO clothe itself with
vestments. or work out an elaborate order
OF ceremonial observance; Il Is not even

else. and that It can unlock all the august

ness Of the Jew from the Christian, and
there was evidence OF a large sympathy
among clergymen and laymen for the view
OF Rev. william M. Grosvenor OF Man
haitian, who said;
"The Jew knows what the Christian has
been to him during the centuries. It has
not been a history full Of Joy. He has
suffered inquisition, persecution, herdlng
into ghettoes. In America for the first
time in the history OF his race since the
fall OF Jerusalem he finds an open door,
and is doing his best to fit into American
institutions. The only way for the Hebrew
to ever come into the unity Of the church
is after he has had a few centuries Of
Christian tolerance, love, charity and
Justice"
II was in accordance with these views
that the house OF bishops decided that the
Jews converted to the Episcopal faith may
continue the Jewish rites, festivals and
ceremonies as historical and racial tra-
ditions, provided they do not do 1t as a
matter of religion.
Enthusiasm and sense OF perspective
should go hand in hand in religion as in
art Warm faith cannot but show itself
in zeal. Calm common sense cannot fail
60 recognize the perspective when It comes
to PROSECUTING. The Protestant Episcopal
church means to keep zeal without
abandoning common sense.
Public interest in Maryland has been
awakened in an ancient little church at
Dorchester. on the eastern shore, because
OF its antiquity and its relics. The church
was built in 1850, and still contains as
cherished treasures a chalice presented to

the queen is said 20 have knelt on the
occasion OF her coronation.
There are a number OF ancient church
buildings in the east. but the Oldest re-
HgiOus edifice In the United states, ante
dating even the remnants OF the Spanish
occupation OF the Florida east coast, is the
! old church OF Santa Fe. N. NJ.
This Is without question the Oldest church
in the United States. Its foundation was
laid in 15l1. and It was used at once,
though not completed until either 1877 or
1913
For this old mission Spain sent a staff OF
I painters and sculptors and donated a bell
which was cast on August 9. 1856, or iS6
