of the committee had been admitted,

the stage and attempted to address
the convention. He was hurled from
the stage by j. f. Cremer of Mar
quette. Taft man.
The police and militia at this juno
ture forced back 100 men who sought
to engage in the fight precipitated by
Gordon and Cremer. All attempts to
quiet the excited delegates seemed
useless. Despite the great disorder
both the Taft and Roosevelt forces
attempted at the same time to or
ganize the convention. Two police
men stood guard over Beveridge who
had been swept back from his seat
during the fight
While Secretary King attempted to
get a vote on the question of tenn
porary chairman, Gordon resumed his
speech amid wild confusion. More
Roosevelt delegates entered the hall
through transoms over the doors. The
police fought and elected some OF
them. Finally King announced that

The current numbered the Re
view of Reviews contains the best
article from the pen Of the great
journalist w. I. Stead who was
lost with the Inflated Titanic;
The article bears the title A
World S Object Lesson From the
British Democracy.
Last month wrote, truly wrote
that Britain stood on the brink
OF Hell. This month | write not
less truly that Britain, having es-
capped Hell, is returning from the
purifying flames of Purgatory.
Whereat let us thank God and
glorify His Holy Name forever.
March has been a dark and dolor-
Gus month"; month OF grim sus-
pense and sore affliction, a trying
month, a testing month, but never
tLeltss it is likely to be remem-
bered long in our annals as one Of
oroWnlng mercy. For whom the
Lord loveth He chasteneth, and
scourgeth every son whom lie re-
ceiveth, and although" no chas-
tening for the present is joyous,
but grievous, nevertheless after
ward it yieldeth the peaceablo
fruit OF righteousness unto them
which are exercised thereby.
Wherefore lift up the hands
which hang down, and the fee
bic knees, and make straight
paths for your feet. How Apo
sitely the familiar verses from the
Gpistle to the Hebrews apply to
the present situation. For the
of straight paths lest that
which is lame be turned out of
the way, is the task to which the
nation is now addressing itself,
and we shall do well to take as
our order of the day, follow
peace and holiness, without which
no man shall see the Lord"
Which lesson, if it be indeed ta-
Ken seriously to heart, will be well
worth the fifty millions sterling
which Britain is computed to-
rave lost in the Month of Trial.
