New Building for M0rgan's Gift

Plans of the addition to the Metropoli-
tan Museum of Art to house the $4,000,
900 collection which the late j. Pierpont
Morgan brought here from Europe last
year, has been filed with the building de-
partment. The building will cost $780,
900, and will be built from the $750,0O0 ap-
propriated last year for the purpose by
the board of estimate and apportionment
From the south side of the old museum,
or central building, it will extend S47 10
feet, or as far as Eightieth street. balance
ing the museum, which already has a
corresponding addition a block long, says
the New York Sun.
The Morgan collection, which this struc-
ture will contain, is exceeded in extent
and cost only by the collection at the
Louvhe. 1t comprises 400 separate OBJ
jects, which Mr.. Morgan had been col
lecting from every corner of the earth
for the last 10 years.
The treasures had been scattered about
of the old world up to last
year, when Mr.. Morgan decided that he
would like to show to the people of his
own country the great treasures of art
that Europe had been enjoying for so

long. He let it be known that he would
bring the collection here IL a suitable
building connected with the Metropolitan
Museum of Art should be erected. The
matter was laid before the board of esti-
! mate, and after little opposition the
appropriation was granted.
1t took nearly dozen shipments to
bring the collection here. From the South
Kensington museum came 800 objects
valued at $l0000O0O, which Mr. Morgan
had loaned to the museum years before.
From Glasgow, from Paris and other art
centers of Europe, came more treasures,
but the greater part Mr. Morgan had in
his London home at Princes Gate in his
Dover house and in his villa at Putney,
just outside of London. From the Prince $
Gate house came "A wall panels of Frag-
onard which were done by Nine. Du-
barry and which the banker bought for a
great sum.
The collection represents lost arts and
arts of the early ages. 1t includes enam-
els of the eighteenth century, classical
bronzes and jewelry, bronzes of the Gothic
and Renaissance periods, silver metal
work, watches and clocks, jewelry, crys-
tails and objects in amber. Italian majol-
lea, early French faience, French and

Venetian glass, tapestries, furniture,

three notable paintings besides the Frag-

storerooms of the Metropolitan museum.

north wing early next year, in accord with
the wish of j. p. Morgan. while the per-

HOW GOOSEDONE

Various Ways of Forecast

Writer

A writer in the Hamburger Nachrichten,
who is evidently one of those rare and
favored mortals who find, tongues in
trees, books in the running brooks" thus
charmingly summarizes the various signs
of impending rain:
The idylic calm of the hen run gives
place to a scene of great excitement the

dust.
The ducks are just as lively, diving fire.
-quently.' Peacocks give vent to their hard
metallic cry expressive of a soul in an
guish Pigeons lose their consciousness
of the time of the day and seem to be
in doubt whether they ought not at once
to seek the shelter of the dove cote.
Swallows give up their aerial circling
and, press down toward the earth in pur-
suit of the insects which have also
dropped into lower strata.
Other animals seem to know that the
time of cheerful sunny warmth is de-
parting. In a corner of the yard the cat
scratches herself behind the ear and rubs
her fur with paw as If she wanted to
remove some invisible spot. In barn and
corn loft rats and mice emerge from their
dark corners
Flies are all agog; their quiet refiec-
tiveness gives place to a restless and
greedy buzzing round everything and
every one. Bees either stop at home in
the hive or come swarming back to 1t III
hurry. They cease to be pacified and
go out of the way to sting an unsuspect-
ing wayfarer if they see storm coming.
Spiders stop In the middle of the few
erish weaving of their webs and hang
DULY and tiredly by their threads. So,
too, with the humble denizens of the soil;
worms wiggle up and stretch themselves,
while toads come out of their holes in
troops. In the pond the chorus of frog
voices sounds louder than ever as they
invoke the clouds to pour down the long
desired rain.
Even under the water the coming
change makes itself felt. Fish rise.
Twenty-four hours before the change in
the weather the roach comes out of its
muddy bed and swims about continually,
making what looks like terrified gasps
for breath, which gives it it's name of
weather fish, The frogs, those true
barometers, leave the water and show
themselves.

formerly made Europe and America
able to increase their populations with
the greatest speed are now spreading
to Asia, AND Will later spread to Africa
Machinery and organized industrial
methods Will rapidly raise the economic
efficiency of these continents, and If
the standard of production rises while
the standard of consumption remains
as modest as it is the non Christian
population of Japan, China, India and
Africa will be able to increase at as
great rate as the Christians increased
at during the nineteenth century. In
this way Christianity, which now en-
braces a third of the world, threatens,
even II 1t still increases, to- see its rela-
tive strength decaying, owing to a sud-
den squirt in population increase among
the awakened colored world.
Pagacnik concludes from this that il
it relies merely upon increase of its
own population Christendom will be-
come relatively weaker or at best will
remain in the present position. In or
der to increase its share it must rely
on propagandism and not upon birth
rate. Is there, he asks. any prospect
of success? Judged by the past no.
Compared with the mass conversions
of Europe in the centuries after Christ
the achievements of missionary work
in Asia. Africa, Oceana and South
America are very small. The total
number of native Christians claimed
by Protestant and Catholic missions is
100000 That is only la per cent of
the 1,174,o0o0o0 populations of these con-
tinents; or, leaving out America as
primarily Christian continent and

cent. Asia has S22.000,0O0 inhabitants.
but at most 100000 Christians, the
, majority of whom are shaky enough
in their faith. Africa with popula-
tion of 140,000.000 has, excluding the
whites of the South African union,
barely i 100000. That implies very
small missionary progress, because
many of the native Christians in all
continents are not converts of the last
few years. but descendants of men and
women who were converted genera
tion back or more, and it is observed
that these Christian families as a re-
suit of foreign protection, better hy-
giene and greater average wealth have
tended to increase more rapidly than
does the local heather population.
Pagacnik declares that the cause Of
this relative failure is to be found In
the words which the King of Wurttem-
berg addressed in 1897 to the African
missionary, Kolberg. The King and
Queen are great friends of missions
and firm believers in the approaching
Christianization of the world. The

I from mere evolution along predeter-
mined laws. 1t is in this conscious
development to meet the exigencies of
the age and of geography and race that
he sees a radiant hope that in a not
far distant future Christianity will
possess the earth.
In his lectures Herr Pagacnik began
with a fierce attack on what is called
the. fruitlessness of missionary enter
prise, and yet ended with optimistic
predictions of universal Christianiza-
tion. 1t will be a diluted Christianiza-
ton. The position of the world as
Herr Pagacnik puts it, is that in 1909,
the last year for which there is re-
liable estimate, there lived 500. 900, 900
Christians and about 967, 100000 non
Christians. The relative proportion of
Christians has in the last century rap
idly increased, although there has been
a large absolute increase in the num-
Der of Christians. Christianity
owns much larger percentage of the
world than it did in 1900. But this is
not due to missionary conversion. for
there has not been a single case of a
whole nation going over to Christian
ity, as nations did in the first mellen-
MUM A. d. The relative increase in
the number of Christians Is due to the
economic development of Europe, which

gancik, that Christ. who denied wealth,
has had His religion spread by wealth.
Were 1t not for the abnormal growth
of riches in England and America since
1900, 1t Is certain that the number of
Christians would be far below the num-
ber of Mahomedans which Is probably
now less than 25O,O00, ,OO0.'
Pagacnik says that the intense
crowding reached already a century
ago in India and China, being COM
bined with low economical develop
ment, has prevented anything like an
equal increase for the religions of Mo-
hammed, Brahma and Buddha. So these
religions when compared with Chris
tianityN have all lost ground. But this
stage of relative Christian increase has
now reached an end Christianity will
not much longer be able to rely on
economic superiority. The industrial

ARTHUR PAGACNIK

Z 7 VIENNA, 9 october 1S.-(Spe-
v cialo-rs the world Decom-
ing world of Christians?
Austrian theologians and statis-
ticians are busy with this old prob
lem. The thesis that. it is and also
that 1t Is not has been propounded
often since Christolph Friedrich V.
Ammon wrote his formidable four
volume essay on The Development of
Christianity Into World Religion"
Things have changed radically since
then, for every measure and reform
suggested by Ammon as a means of
making Christianity universal has since
been condemned and rejected. Ammon's
theory was that the world is slowly
growing Christian; and that the Chris
ton religion is being modified and
adapted in the necessary direction so
that 1t will find favor with the heather.
but he admitted that the final form OF
Christianity and the fun Christianiza-
ton of the world were both far off.
Now, after so years of preaching Chris
tianity without. and increasing its re-
ceptibility and Elasticity within. only
a third of mankind is Christian and
missionary records show that at the
present rate of conversion millenniums
must pass before--in the words of a
Magyar poet, "the last heaten dies
obdurate in unbelief, while his chill
dren pray for his soul to the Christian
Redeemer"
This is a tiresome prospect for ev
eryone except for paid officials of mis-
sionary leagues. But the prospect is
less Black than it seems. At least that
may be judged from the present Aus
trian discussion, set going by lectures
of Herr Arthur Pagacnik, and by a re-
snarkable book recently published by
Prof. Karl Beth OF Vienna The book
is die Entwicklung des Christentumsr
zur Universal Religion a title almost
the same as that of Ammon's big work.
DR.. Beth Is the leading Austrian theo-
logian writer in the lay world and
though a comparatively young man he
has written numerous books, dealing
with the theology .of Schleiermacher,
with Oriental Christianity. with the
philosophy of Giordano Bruno, against
Drews' famous christian Myth and
on other such subjects. wfrich are all
dealt with in liberal but apologetical
mood. And in HIS new work he sets
himself to deal with the factors which
are making Christianity essentially a
world religion which has potentialities
of conscious free development as apart
