A Century Ahead of Dr.. Eliot
BY REV. THos. B. GREGORY.

YEN Johann Gottlieb
w Fichte died. just one hum
bred years ago, there
passed out from the ways OF
men one Of the finest intellects
and one of the grandest pieces of
manhood that ever honored and
adorned the race.
Flchte was, in the truest sense
OF the word, philosopher
lover Of wisdom He loved truth
with all his heart, and not once
during his entire career did he
lower his flag to those who would
have him play false with his hon
est convictions Instead of liv-
ing and dying poor, Fftche could
have had place and power and
wealth had he but said the word.
but not for the world would he
have sold his better self for the
plaudits Of men and their prof.
fered gold

upon the people after Jena, and
paved the way for the ever
memorable ceremony of the 18th
of January 1871, when the Ger
man Empire was proclaimed in
the great Hall of Mirrors al
Versailles.
In the realm Of matters trans
cendental, F'ichte anticipated All
the profound thinkers of to-day,
and among the rest the dlstin-
guished president emeritus Of
Harvard. Long before President
Eliot was born the great Ger
man thinker declared, God is
the Moral Order Of the Universe.
the Eternal Law Of Right, which
is the foundation Of our being"
There was no scholastic meta
physics, no theological namby-
pamby in that declaration, but a
scientific truth, around to which
all thoughtful persons are sure,
sooner or later, to come.
Fichte finished the work that
was given him 10 do. and died in
the poverty in the midst Of which
he had largely lived. but his in
fluence is immortal and Of the
good fruits Of his labors there
shall be no END.

Read of Poor Scotchman
Who Rose Through
Honesty.

There is q. book soon to he pub
lfshed which will give the history
OF some OF the Scotchmen that
came to this country when they
were boys. and that have, by
their genius and moral character.
put very definite stamp on our
city and times.
An incident occurred In the
early life OF one OF these which
the boys can learn something
from that will be of use to them
and that may perhaps help to
make them as successful as he
has been
shall not give his name, but
young readers that are bright and
that have kept up with things
will probably be able to guess 1t.
He was born poor, in a story
snd-a-half house. His father
was a weaver. He came to this
country with the rest Of his IA
theirs family when he was 10, and
commenced on Job that paid
him 20 cents day.
Faithful work as bobbia- boy
soon procured him a position that
earned him almost a dollar a day.
His attentiveness to what was
given him to do brought him aft
er a little while 10 the attention
OF a railroad man who was a
large employer Of help.
He had in the meantime been
economizing his small earnings,
out Of which It was suggested to
him that he should take just a
little stock IN a car company.
He was shrewd enough to realize
the opportunity. but knew well
enough that he hadn't the money.

Cor the boys if in the training

more attention could be given by
great and good and successful
men and TO the means by which
they came to positions OF influ-
ence.
1t is easy enough TO tell boy

Negotiated a Bank Loan
Because He Proved y
Honest.

I Just said that in asking for a
loan he had nothing that he
could offer as security; that is.
he owned nothing that he could
make over to the bank in case he
failed to return the loan. Sc
curity OF the ordinary kind he did
not have, but he had something
that was Just as satisfactory to
the banker, for he had 81 charac-
ter for honesty, faithfulness and
perseverance. and the banker
said to him: you shall have the
money, Andy, for you are all

boy. II he had been. the banker,

not have given him a cent. That

they are rotten.
A little money might give them
a start in life, but they are rot
ten, and nobody will loan 1t to
them. They might be able to I'LL
some paying position. but they
are rotten and nobody will en-
ploy them. And then they say
they haven't fair show. Yes,
they have a perfectly fair show.
They get Just what they deserve.
People Of sense will not put their
trust In boys that are not sound.

Although he could offer no Sc

what followed on during the years
after.

Union Men Leave the Job Be-
cause Mon-Union Men Are
Not Discharged.
PLACES ARE TO Be FILLED
Construction Company De-
Clares Union Failed to Fur
nish Enough Workers.

Eighteen union carpenters en-
ployed in the construction of the
new Washington Irving high school
building on Lee street struck We'd
nesday morning because the contrac-
tors would not discharge the eight
non-union men who were working on
the job.
John B. Stills, local manager for
the Hiram Lloyd Building and Con-
struction Company, of st. Louis, Mo-,
which is erecting the structure, de-
clares that a week or so ago he made
a requisition upon the local carpen-
ters' union for more carpenters and
that only three or four men were fur
nished. Because the union failed to
furnish the men he wanted. he says,
he proceeded to engage all the car
penters he could, regardless of
whether they belonged to union.
He says the company is compelled to
rush the construction work in order
to get the building finished and ready
for occupancy at the earliest posi-
BILE moment.
It is the intention of the construc-
ton company to fill the places Of the
strikers Immediately and Mr.. Stills
says that he will have twenty. or
thirty more carpenters at work on
the Job within the next two or three
days.
According to Mr.. Sills, the wage
scale had nothing to do with the
strike as he has been paying the car
penters $3.50 day while the union
scale here is only 1925 a day.

ALE EUROPEAN ARMIES
ARE BUSY liASSING NOW

LONDON, July 29.-Reports of the
n,assing Of armies in strategic posi-
tons came from all parts Of Europe
today but no actual clash Of opposing
forces was registered.
Diplomats concentrated their at
tention on efforts to- confne the war
to Austria Hungary and Servia, the
two nations Immediately concerned.
The attitude of the German and Rus.
sian emperors was closely watched
owing to their near relations to the
countries engaged.
Premier Asquith referred to the IN
ternational situation In the House OF

1.-THE situation at this tine. be
said rs one Of extreme gravity and
can only usefully say that the British
government is not relaxing Its efforts
to do everything In Its power to cir
cumscribe the area Of conflict.
The British government has re-
ceived no information as to an al

Austria- Hungary and ,eryia re-
sounded today with the march of
troops toward positions Of attack and
defense while military aviators on
both sides fitted through the
along the frontiers In an effort to dis
cover their opponents positions.
No idea Of the plan of campaign
could be obtained by the general pub
lie, however, owing to the rightly OF
the censorship in regard to military
movements. It was known that the
Austro-Hungarian government had
requisitioned the entire train service
and that private transportation in the
monarchy had ceased.
It was cleaned from dispatches
from Servian points that the Bosnian
frontier was looked upon as the mast
likely point of attee' e the Austrian
troops and thither the soldiers Of
King Peter were hurried in great
numbers.
The Montenegrin soldiery evident
" preparing to support their brother
Sebs also concentrated along the Bos-
MAN frontier. The STOCK exchanges
everywhere in Europe were demon
allied and where they were not closed
business was almost at standstill.
