SAW FALL OF PAGAN ROME
Stones Of the Coliseum ImmortaIize
Today tho Triumphs Of Chris
tlanity That Lives.

Christianity Ia crystallized in the
Coliseum and St Peters. In the
former by the triumphs of the
martyrs; in the latter by the dedica-
ton Of art to the worship OF God,
writes Bishop Gilmour.
Come with me along the Via Sacra,
past the Forum and the Arch of Titus.
But step, and we are at the Coli
scum, pressed In between the Celian
and Palatine hills, the Arch OF Con-
stantine and the Temple OF Venus.
AS we enter. the moon has risen,
giving a weird appearance to the
scene, as we see It's shadows fit, dis
solve and lose themselves amid the
arches of this mighty ruin. Amid
broken arch and column and vaulted
corridor, terrace rises upon terrace
till the blood curdles and the hair
stands on end Memory Is busy and
hurries us back to when Christian
martyr and gentle maid stood within
the vast arena to die for Christ.
The emperor Is there; the nobility
of Rome is there; tier upon tier Is
densely packed; the wild beasts paw
their cages, impatient for the feast;
one hundred thousand voices shout,
THE Christians TO the lions!" A
spring, a growl, a culver and another
hero has gone to God. Every brick.
and stone, and grain Of sand in this
| mighty ruin has been sanctified by the
blood shed there. Here a Felicitas
and Perpetua. a Cyriacus and Pancras
died; here Rome brutalized herself,
and within these walls strove to crush
out truth.
Here Pagan Rome fell and Chris
tan Rome rose. The blood Of the mar
tyrs was the seed of the church.

HAVE NO NEED OF THOUGHT
All That Troubles Eskimo Is That
They Shall Be Sure Of Getting
Enough to Eat.

Where the physical struggle for life
is at its keenest, as 1t is among the
Eskimos, the years glide by free from
the more subtle cares and worries OF
the civilized man. The Eskimo does
not count the days and keeps no rec
ord of time. All his thoughts are CEN
tered on hunting.
Once asked an Eskimo who seemed
to be plunged In reflection, What are
you thinking about?'
He laughed at my question, and
said. "Oh. 1t Is only you white men
who 20 in 80 much for thinking! Up
here we only think Of our fiesh-pits,
and whether we have enough for the
long dark Of the winter II we have
meat enough, then there Ia no need to
think. have meat and to spare!
saw that I had insulted him by
crediting him with thought.
On another occasion / asked an I'M
usually intelligent Eskimo, Panigpak,
who had taken part In Pearys last
North Polar expedition:
Tell me. what did you suppose was
the object Of all your exertionsT
What did you think when you saw
the land disappear behind you and
you found yourself out on the drifting
ice-floes"
Think" said Panigpak, astonished.
II did not need to think. Peary dld
that!"
Eating becomes the great thing with
the Eskimos. / once excused myself,
when paying visit, with the plea that
I had already eaten and had mad
enough. l was laughed at, and the
answer / received was:
There thou talkest like a dogl
! Dogs can be stuffed till they are salts
fed and can eat no more; but people
people can always eat!'-Knuo

Enalish Society,""

There are three classes OF society
IN England-the aristocrats, who are
barbarians; the middle class, who are
philistines, and the dregs Of society,
who are nothing at all. 1t is funny
thing that the late King Edward, who
had all the vices of the aristocrats,
was beloved by the middle class, and
that his son, King George, who has
all the virtues of the middle class, is
despised by the aristocrats. He and
the queen are always spoken Of as
George and the Dragon.

COMMITTEE HEARS
CURRENCY PROTEST
FROM n. E. BANKERS,

washington, Sept. 26.-With enough
witnesses desiring to, be heard to con-
sumo two or three weeks and requests
for hearings on the administration
currency bill still coming in, the Sen
ate committee, TO-DAY, adjourned, until
Monday. The day had been passed
hearing protests of New England
bankers against provisions of the bill.
The committee will resume, on Mon
day, with a continuation of the exam
ination of Samuel Untermyer, who
passed a part of two days before the
committee, this week.
The hearings have developed wide
range of disagreement among men,
bers of the committee If the disagree
ments continue it is possible that af-
ter the views of bankers and business
men from all over the country have
been considered an attempt will be
made to report the bill to the Senate
without recommendation.
Justine T.. Varncy, vice president of
the Bay State National Bank of Law
renee, Mass, gave the committee fig
ares showing the reserve operations
of his bank at present and as con-
templated under the new bill. He said
the new plan would be of no benefit
to the country bank and that his bank
would lose 1896 in profits or nearly

The PubIic's Right.

Il believe that the public has TIL,
right to know for what purpose every
dollar of railroad money is spent. Il
these expenses had been published al
the time. l venture to say that neither
sections of the Public Service bill would
have become law-or would even have
reached my desk to be vetoed, and then
passed over my veto.
1T is as important for the railroad as
for the public, that the present sus-
picion. backed by the revelations in cur
rent publications, should be cleared up.
TT is my understanding that the pow
er conferred upon you by the Legsla-
ture of 1913. in creating your commission,
suffices for your purpose in conducting
the inquiry which I now call for. If you
have any doubt on this point. l will ask
for the cooperation of the attorney gen.
erals office In determining the point
After referring to the members of the
Legislature. who, he said, voted to CON
fer extraordinary financial concessions
upon the railroad in the so-ealled Wash.
burn bill and who voted to override my
veto of the Western Trolley bill. and
WHO passed that measure ioIWltHsldiiu-
ing that Veto the Governor wrote:
while ii is true that honest consdera-
tons undoubtedly controlled the actions
of many members in these matters. it is
of vital consequence that the relation of
the late railroad management to the
Massachusetts Legislature should be full
ly uncovered with the last possible
lapse of time in order that the public
may have full information as to the
motives which actuated each and every
one of these allies of the railroad in the
Legislature in voting as they did.
THE public has the right to know
whether in any one or more instances
| the influence of the railroad was brought
| to bear upon them in any manner incon
| sistent with public policy.
| Moreover, it is for the interest of tn,
railroad that you should clear up thes,

position with serious handicap, anc

Again. think there is little doubt tina
the experience of the railroad under pas
| Legislatures in Massachusetts and 9th
| er New England states has been pain
| full one. and that many improper de
| mands have been made upon the rail

operation in favor of suppressing unfa

that this factor may have grown to b
