Water soaked through, into the box office ami destroyed all the tickets In the racks and drawer?, reducing them to a mushy pulp. lils rendered it impossible to determine the location of the seats sold and made It necessary to require everyone holding tickets to bring them to the box office to be exchanged for newtickets. The exchange wu beyur lart Monday morning and by Thursday noon all tickets out had been returned and cancelled and new tickets substituted. It is a noteworthy fact that but Z'A was refunded from this enormous advance sale, which practically evidences the remarkable hold Miss Allen and her play have taken on public Interest In Boston and New England.

SHE WILL TAKES MME. SEMDRICH'S PLACE AT TO-NIGHT'S COXCCUT. The Polish Artist Dlxnltlecl by Dron. chlal Trouble Prices Cat in Two. Mme. Marcella Sembrlch, who was announced to sing at English's Opera House to-night, is so seriously ill with bronchitis that she will not be able to appear. Mme. Sembrlch contracted a severe cold about two weeks ago, which made It necessary for her to cancel her professional engagements. She was to have sting at Columbus, O., Saturday night, and came there from New York in the hope that she would be able to take part in the concert. Against the advice of her physician she went on and attempted to sing her first number. The effort was a painful one, both for her and the audience, for she coughed incessantly and before her song was finished was compelled to retire. Within an hour her bronchial trouble became so aggravated that she was seriously 111, and two physicians were called in to attend her. Yesterday 6he was somewhat better, but could scarcely speak above a whisper, and it was absolutely necessary to cancel her engagements in the Immediate future. Indeed, it is probable that she will not be able to 6ing again this season. She was to have appeared in Indianapolis ' to-night, Cincinnati to-morrow night and Nashville, Tenn., Wednesday night, her engagements for next week being at the Louisville and Ann Arbor festivals. Her inability to appear to-night will cause much disappointment among musical people, for there had already been an advance sale of seats of more than 11,000. The Boston Festival Orchestra of fifty musicians and the vocal artists with that organization, which, under the management of George W. Stewart, is giving a aeries of festivals and concerts throughout the country, arrived here last night from Columbus and are at the Denlson House. In order not to disappoint the public entirely, Mr. Stewart last night arranged to give a popular concert at English's to-night with his allied forces and to reduce the prices of seats onehalf on account of the nonappearance of Mme. Sembrlch. Besides his excellent orchestra, which is well known here, additional attractions will be three prominent singers. Signor Guiseppe Campanari, Miss Sara Anderson and Clarence Shirley. Campanari needs no commendation to musical people. He is the most popular baritone now before the public, and his recent triumphs.in grand opera are we'.l known. Miss Anderson is a young soprano who, during the past season, has made a great reputation in the Eastern cities. She is a beautiful woman and a highly accomplished singer. Mr. Shirley is a tenor of excellent reputation. It is announced that people who have bought seats with the expectation of hearing Mme. Sembrlch can retain the same seats and receive half of the original purchase price back or can have all their money refunded by applying at the box office before the concert begins. The programme to be given will be as follows: Overture, "Tannhauser" Wagner Orchestra. Andante from quartet in B-flat Tschaikowskl String orchestra.

The bicycle police, Schroeder and Hauler, arrived and found that Patrick McMahan and wife were fighting in one of the upstairs re jms. Both were considerably bruised and were sent to the station on charges of assault and battery. It v;a? said that McMahan and his wife had been driving in the afternoon, after which Patrick went to the saloon, where ho is employed as a bartender. Mrs. McMahan came later and wanted her husband to go home with her. He refused and a tight started. Gibson, it is claimed, was selling liquor in thw rooms upstairs- and was also arrested and charged with selling and giving away liquor on Sunday, and also tor selling without a license. Stranger Struck by Frank L. Hashes. About 2 o'clock yesterday morning Frank I. Hughes, living at li3 West Vermont street, and an engineer at the Lemcke building went into a restaurant on East Washington fctreet for a lunch. When paying his bill he had some conversation with the cashier about the charges and a strangtr came up and asked what he had said. Hushes said. "1 was talking to the cashier and :Ud nothing to you." Hughes went out and was In the act of lighting his bicycle lamp when someone struck him on the head, knocking hhn down and cutting a large gash in the forehead. Hughes was unconscious for some 'time and was taken to the police nation, where he recovered and was then sent home.

There was a meeting of the local auxiliary to the Red Cress yesterday afternoon in the Lincoln Yettianv Hail, 23ft South Delaware tr.et.

LORD'S HAND AT MANILA

HEV. 31R. VILLERS REVIEWS ADMIRAL DEWEY'S GREAT VICTORY. Posseswlons Forced on This Country Have Deen the Making: of It. The services at the First Baptist Church last evening were devoted to patriotism as, according to the day of the week, it was the anniversary of Dewey's victory. All hymns and anthems were of a patriotic character and the topic of the sermon by Rev. T. J. Villers was "The Miracle at Manila." Mr. Villers1 commenced by referring to the Israelites at Mlzpeh, concerning which It is recorded In the Bible that the Lord thundered and the Phillistlnes were discomfited, to the salvation of the Israelites. This is recorded as a miracle, but Mr. Villers said it was no more of a miracle to him than was the victory at Manila, and he believed that God thundered at Manila. He spoke of it having been but a year ago when Dewey's fleet entered the bay and he described the battle which followed. He summed up the results, with eleven war ships destroyed, the fortifications at the entrance to the bay destroyed, the shore batteries silenced, the naval station at Cavlte captured and about l.tttt killed. The Spaniards had built pens in which to confine Dewey and his men, he said, but not one wa taken prisoner and not one was killed. Six on the Baltimore were wounded by one of their own shells and the damage to the fleet was confined to three shot holes on the upper worx of the Baltimore, five in the Olympia and a whaleboat on the Raleigh smashed. There has been no. parallel in the history of naval annals?. The human agent of this miracle, said the preacher, was an obscure man, and Dr. Hamlin, an eminent minister of Washington, lived on the same street with him and had never heard of him. Mr. Villers said he was a prepared man and that his victory was not gained by luck. God never uses? luck in His affairs. Mr. Villers gave a sketch of Admiral Dewey and referred to his participation In the grounding and blowing up of the "Mississippi" and other engagements of the civil war. Admiral Dewey, said the speaker, was in training for this achievement for forty years, just as God had trained Moses forty vears for his achievement. Admiral Dewey was a man with empires in his purpose and new eras in his brains. Considering the humane purpose of the attack, Mr. Villers said that but twice before has the United States interfered in the affairs of the old world. Once was in the affair with the Tripoli pirates when the United States cleared the coast of pirates and insured the safety of commerce of the entire world, a feat which all countries of Europe had been unable to accomplish; and the second time in opening Japan to the commerce of the world. Other European nations followed the United States after the treaty with Japan was signed. In both of tnese instances it seemed to be the God-sent mission of the United States to relieve the troubles of the world. The Interference by Admiral Dewey was on higher than commercial grounds, and was for personal liberty. The Philippines include 600 islands, varying from tiny islets to Luzon, containing 40,xh) square miles. The population is estimated at from Miv.OOO to 10,000,000 and in the Interior of many of the islands the savages are naked. Mr. VTllers commented on the islands having been in possession of a nation which had not improved the condition of the people in the long time of possession. Extreme poverty is the rule among the natives, which is due to Spanish taxation. Taxes were Imposed on natives which it was impossible to pay and those who were delinquent were first beaten with sticks, then cast .into prison and finally deported, which meant life exile, as the government allowed them 6 cents a day for their -labor and charged 3 cents a day for keeping them, thus leaving but one cent with which they might clothe themselves, support their families and pay their back taxes. Mr. Villers said that Asulnaldo's attitude is unfortunate, as our men. in. the islands are not fighting him of their own volition, but for the purpose of freeing the "people from this oppressive bondage. His resistance will make the actual work of liberation harder to accomplish, and he is holding back his pecule. FORCED ON THE NATION. Mr. Villers closed by saying that he believed the United States has been directed by the hand of God and that the people must become expansionists whether they will or not. He saw the hand of God from the first, in that the Spanish were sent to. the South when this country was discovered, while flying birds led Cabot,' a hrd English Protestant, to the North. The Louisiana purchase was made in spite of the people at 24 cents an acre, and yet it has more than doubled our area. Oregon was forced on the government through Whitman, and California became ours by Commodore Sloat raising the United States Mag Just a week before Admiral Seymour sailed in the bay to perform the same act for the British. Alaska this Nation did not want, but made the purchase to show our appreciation of Russia's acts on our behalf during the civil war, and now it has turned out to be a gold reserve. Many did not want Hawaii and yet it became necessary Vj have a coaling station in the Pacific in view of the possible trouble with Spain. Admiral Dewey had no place to go other than Manila. Had he returned to. San Francisco, which was his only alternative.' American people would have been branded .as '.cowards by other nations, and this Nation would probably have had a war as the result of that belief which would have-cost us more lives than we lost in the Philippines. Dewey was forced there and by his remarkable victory the group was forced on this country. In all this Mr. Villers pees "the hand of God in forming the destiny of the United States to become the great civilizing, evangelizing power of the world. Such, he believes, is the destiny of the country and that by the hand of God the people must become expansionists. Another result has been a practical union with Great Britain. The new America, said he, 1 taking her place in the world's struggle for these purposes and with this destiny, and ail under the 1-adership of such men as Dewey, Rowan, Blue, Hobson, Whitney and Funston. May Devotion at St. John. At St. John's Academy, on West Maryland street, yesterday afternoon, about one hundred little girls gathered to take part in the May devotions in St. John's Church. They were dressed in white with veils, and carried bouquets. They formed in pairs at the academy and marched to the church, chaperoned by the Sisters of Providence. At the, church they were met by twenty acolytes dressed in cassock and surplice, in charge of Father Lyons. There a procession was formed which slowly marched down the main aisle to the sanctuary, the boys, with Father Lyons, rinsing hjmns us they walked along preceded by the cross bearer. When the girls reached the sanctuary they placed their bouquets on the Blessed Virgin altar north of the main altar. As they placed the flowers on the altar they took seats in the front part of the church. When all were seated two large girls, accompanied by two tot proceeded to. the Blessed Virgin altar, recited prayers ami returned to their places. Father Gavisk then recited the rosary, advanced to the altar rail, spoke briefly about the May devotions and then began Benediction of the Rlessed Sacrement which concluded the afternoon's ceremony. The ringing and music during the services was by the children's ctolr. Tabernacle Chureh Deacons. Charles Ford, Dr. Fred R. Charlton and Claude M. Parker were installed as deacons of Tabernacle Church last night. Rev. J. dimming Smith described the ideal deacon, and then said he hoped the delineation had not frightened the new deacons. A fOOO Verdict for Trayford Death. The Jury in the damage tult of Hubert E. Heine, administrator of the estate of George P. Trayford. deceased, against the C. C, C. & St. I. Railway Company, taken to Iebanon on a change of venue from Marion county, has rendered a verdict for the plaintiff, awarding him J3.000 damages. Trayford. while crossing the Bir Four tracks, on Newman street. May 26. is7. was struck and killed by a locomotive. He was riding a bicycle at the time. It was alleged In the complaint that a long line of box cars on the side track obscured the .view of the main track, and that there was no watchman lUtloned at the crossing, as required by

city ordinance, but. Instead, there was a system of electric alarm bells to give warning of the approach of trains, it was alleged thit no warning was given of the approach of a train, and that Trayford, relying on the system of alarm bells, stepped on the track, and was struck and killed. Hubert E. Heine, as administrator of Trayford's estate, brought suit against the rofcd for damages, asking Judgment for 510,000. COL, CODY'S WILD WEST.

Some of the Features That Have Made the Show Fa moos. Col. W. F. Cody (Buffalo Bill) will be here with his Wild West show for two performances next Friday. The main features which have gone to make up the "Wild West" in past seasons have been retained, hut In addition there Is much that is entirely new. Among the new features are typical horsemen from Hawaii, Filipino warriorsand a detachment from the famous Roosevelt's Rough Riders, who will be seen as they appeared during their memorable Cuban campaign. The .fight at San Juan will be presented and enacted by men who were there and fought, showing an accurate and realistic reproduction of the Spanish fortifications, the field of action and the march and bivouac preceding the fight, with the heroic Rough Riders and horses from Roosevelt's command re-enacting the valorous deeds. Johnny Baker and Annie Oakley will be seen again-in their remarkable exhibition of marksmanship. The United States artillery detachment will again be seen and give an idea of action in the field with cannon. The different types of horsemanship are revealed in the Congress of Rough Riders, and is njade a special feature of the exhibition, serving tc bring out the styles of riding of different nations. The American cavalry will give their marvelous feat3 of horsemanship and engage in spirited rivalry with representatives from the armies of England, Germany and Russia; the Arabs will astound with their dare-devil riding; the cowboys ride bucking broncho3 and the Mexicans amaze by their facile use of the lasso. Colonel Cody will be seen In the saddle at each performance and demonstrate again his skill with the rifle. There will be the usual custom followed of having a street cavalcade on the morning of the exhibition through the principal streets. A SINGULAR MOVEMENT. Anlrana of the Organisers of the AutlIniperlallst League. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: It is a matter of current history that In the contest between the Spanish government and that of the United States the natives of the Philippines welcomed the latter in the work of liberation from Spanish oppression. Just as the Cubans and Porto RIcans did; that the Spanish government, as recognized by all nations, had supreme authority over the Philippine islands; -that the opposition of the natives had no government, stable or otherwise, but were simply struggling to. free themselves from Spanlsh'oppression; that in the universally recognized manner, after overcoming the Spanish government, the United States -aequlred authority over the Philippines by a peace treaty and payment of $30,000,000. These, I repeat, are matters of current history accepted by all as true. ' ' In view of these things the organization of what is called the "Anti-Imperialist League" In this country is a most singular movement when it is understood that the real purpose of it is not expressed in the title, but, in the words of its chief officer, that its purpose is to create insubordination and rebellion in the armies of the United States by Inducing the soldiers to refuse to carry out the orders of their officers in maintaining the public authority secur?d by the treaty. The attitude of the United States to Cuba. Porto Rico and the Philippines is identical. Stable, government and the lifting up of the people in all of them to the enjoyment of free government is the avowed declaration of the United States . government in respect to all-these countries. In view lr all these matters of current' history, understood the world over, is not the movement to procure defeat of these ends by treason in the army a marvelous movement, having at its head men of such Intelligence as are publicly referred to by name in the press i The steps toward the fall of the Grecian, Reman and other nations had at their heads intelligent men, organized in JJie greatest centers of their, civilization, and were dissimilar to that of the present instance in the degree of apprehending the true destiny of a nation. The present instance seems to be wholly without moral sense and In utter disregard of the moral res-ponsibillty of the Nation, considering only the convenience, ease and happiness of those within coastbound limits. The adherents of this movement do not seem to realize that the Nation's growth and greatness have brought upon it the duties and responsibilities incident to such growth and power. They ignore the history of all time, that the best nations of the earth have always found it a duty to raise up the worst, even to taking possession and parceling out the territory, and have always, in assuming the duties and responsibilities, greatly bettered the condition of the people liberated from oppression. In the matter of the movement of the United States government along these lines, it found the people of neighboring Islands suffering the oppressions of on of the worst governments of Europe, and in freeing the people it seemed duty to destroy the Spanish navy in the remote Philippines also. Thus, more than half crushed, and the people there appealing for relief, what could we do other than to stamp out Spanish oppression there also? And so these are the responsibilities and moral sense and work against which the remarkable New England people are organizing a rebellion in the army of the Nation. These are the plain facts, though the Insurrectionists seem to see different from tho rest of the world. Indianapolis, April 20. J. B. C Family Quarrel Over Sapper. John Rims, colored, and his wife, Sarah, living at 932 Roanclre street, were arrested last night and charged with assault and battery. Sims, it Is said, was late in coming to supper, and upon his arrival home found his evening meal had not been prepared. He made some complaint and then struck his wife over the head. She grabbed a shoemaker's knife which he had been using to pare potatoes and made several slashes at John. She succeeded in cutting his clothing and inflicting a slight cut on the leg. Sims then picked up a large stick nnd chased the woman out of the house and across the street. The police were notified and Bicycle Police Schroeder and Hauser arrested both. Preparing- for the lCllst. The Soldiers Aid Society will hold a meeting this morning at ' the Indiana Trust building when r-Torts will be read by the executive and ways and means committees regarding the preparatory arrangements for entertaining the three companies of the One-hundred-and-sixty-first Indiana volunteers, who will arrive in this city tomorrow night at 8 o'clock. All of the military organizations of Indianapolis will meet the returning soldiers at the Union Station and act as their escorts in the march to the Statehouse, where a banquet will be given.

About 3 o'clock yesterday morning Henry Goodman, a German, John McLarin, a Scotchman, and Robert Collier, a negro, after making frequent Visits to saloons and barrel houses, rounded up at Pearl and Delaware streets, where they entered into a discussion of politics. The arguments became so heated that the slumbers of persons living in that vicinity were disturbed and the police were notified. All were arrested and locked up, where their discussion was continued. Mnllen Wan Rambunctious. Thomas Mullen, ill South Missouri street, was arrested last night by Bicycle Police Schroeder and Hauser.

To the Editor of the Indlanapoll Journal: One year ago to-day Dewey's guns woke the inhabitants in all parts of the world. Something strange and unusual had happened. It came unheralded. The people were amazed and startled at Dewey's men and guns. Thirty-six years ago to-day at Port Gibson, Miss., at early dawn, the strange and unexpected also happened. The guns and men of the silent man informed the world that Grant and his army had gained the .upland, from, whence to assail the enemy's cltsdei. Vicksburg. From that morning's early sunrUe Grant's army rolled over the hlUs and through the valleys, gliding night and day. like a giant snake, stopping here and there long enough to brush the enemy off the road, or out the field as necesaltv rp-rtrtA it .tiut k .fioou JB&a jto-amri7nrvfnu Ji yoaJsred Jia

feared. Lincoln said so In writing. It paralyzed the enemy across the sea. He was at that time marshalling his full diplomatic forces as well as his army divisions to gain a proprietary interest in the waters of our great river that drains into the sea. He feared something was golnp: to happen. It did. Soon after the battle of Champion Hill, the center of a cluster of brilliant battles, was fought, which compelled the diplomats and army divisions of this enemy (Spain was one) to abandon their plans. V'cksburg fell, and the great highway became open and free as nature had destined. The battle of Port Gibson on land and its results should be forever linked with Dewey's great battle at sea. Great surprises and great results sprung from both. They are parallels in nearly all things, and were both fought on the fiist day of May, thirty-five years apart. L. Indianapolis, April CO.

WHAT COGHLAN WROTE COMMAXDER OF THE RALEIGH TELLS THE STORY OF HIS SHIP. He Is More Reserved, hut Less Picturesque, on Paper than In Speech Onr Duty in the Far East. New York Independent. So far as actions can be taken as a criterion of thoughts and feelings the English during the war with Spain were with us heart and soul. When we got word to leave Hcng-Kong and attack the enemy the news spread about through the various clubs and excited divers sentiments. It was supposed that the defenses of Manila were very formidable, that the channel was heavily mined, the forts mannsd by an active and intelligent garrison furnished with all the Implements for detecting the presence of an enemy and making him regret his Intrusion. The Spanish fleet on paper appeared to be as strong as our own; and altogether the attack on Manila looked an exceedingly hard proposition. So much was this the case that Prince Henry of Prussia felt sorry for us. He did not exactly say so, but you could see it in his manner and his look when he heard that we had to go. When I walked down the wharf in HongKong to step aboard the Raleigh and go to sea I was in civilian dress, but some English officers whom I did not know recognized me and saluted. They came about me and said: "By Jove! you fellows are to have the first chance after alll" They were envious, having been waiting month after month, expecting every moment to get an order to fight Russia. They were very friendly, and thought that we were going on particularly hazardous service. They were full of confidence, however. In , our ability to take care of ourselves, and said laughingly: "If you don't clean them up, don't come back here." After the battle of Manila and all throughout the operations there the action of the English fleet showed that they were heartily with us. And the English residents of Manila we found more enthusiastically our friends than even their compatriots in Hong-Kong. This attitude seemed all the more pronounced by contrast with the attitude of some of the other nations. I do not know whether Admiral Chichester told Admiral ' Diedrichs that no one but Dewey knew what the British fleet would do in case Manila was bombarded. That was the rumor, at any rate. But the Germans certainly did give us some anxiety, while the attitude of the English certainly saved us from much trouble. 1 do not. however, believe that the Germans meant fight. The French ships were polite enough, but the French papers in Asia simply frothed at the mouth when they spoke of us. They did nothing but blackguard us after the battle of Manila, calling us bullies, cutthroats, robbers. Previous to the battle of Manila we bad been cowards and men without discipline, who would be very easily 'put to rout by the Spaniards. The Japanese seemed to be very friendly. ON THE WAY HOME. On Dec. li we were ordered home, and started for Singapore, carrying with us a number of the Olympiads men whose time had expired. We were received at Singapore with the greatest cordiality, General yaughan-Jones giving a dinner in our honor and the Derbyshire regiment, of which Colonel Dalton is the commander, entertaining us at their family reunion on Christmas day. A ball was also given in our honor between Christmas and New Year's, and the Sultan of Jahore gave a reception and races In our honor. We were at Singapore ten days, during which time the Spanish transport Montserrat came In to coal. She had Spanish troops aboard who had formerlv been our prisoners. She saluted us and the Spaniards came aboard. They were very badly off for clothing, so our men fitted them out as well as they could and they went on. Our next stopping place was Colombo. Cevlon. There we had almost a repetition of what had been done at Singapore. The Governor was away in the center of the island at the time of our arrival, but the commander-in-chief. General Jordan, visited our ship, had us to dinner, and prominent citizens cf Colombo gave us a dinner at the Galle Face Hotel, and showed us the greatest courtesy. Almost the same thing occurred at Bombay. The government's navy yards are there, and the officials, finding that we needed some little stores, very courteously sent them to us. When we arrived in Aden, although we had Just come from the seat and headquarters of the plague, quarantine was waived for all our officers and such of the ship's crew as were sent ashore on duty an unprecented courtesy. Governor General Cunningham and Lady Cunningham visited our fhlp. and all the messes of the different regiments vied with each other in entertaining us. All -the clubs were at our disposal and dinners and entertainments were given there for our benefit. In fact, the whole conduct of the English people at these various stations was as cordial as that of our own people here In New York. At Port Said and Alexandria th English received us enthusiastically, and on Feb. 2 their guns saluted Washington's birthday as heartily ?s though he were an English hero. Many of our sailors were allowed to go ashore in Egypt to see the pyramids, and their excelent behavior was the subject of much gratifying comment. COURTESY FROM THE ENGLISH. In Malta we received a perfect ovation. The English Mediterranean fleet was lying there. They gave us so many entertainments that we hardly had time to think. There were dinners and entertainments by the Governor, by Admiral Hopkins, by Rear Admiral Noel, by the captains of the various ships; lunches, dinners, dances, all sorU of entertainments. The Royal Artillery gave us a sumptuous dinner. We could not stop at Gibraltar and were obliged to decline all Invitations. At Bermuda it was the same story: the Enellsh were more than kind. Vice Admiral Fisher placed everything In the islands at our disposal. lie said that if we would like to dock our vessel the dock was ours. He said that he was about to dock one of the English vessels, but if we only said the word he would order her held back and give us preference. We, however, though very much gratified, were obliged to decline the offer, as we desired to proceed Immediately to New York. The comments of the English naval officers on Admiral Dewey's victory were very generous and gratifying. They were' as much astonished at the ease with which we achieved such great results as we ourselves were; but they admitted that it did not in the smallest degree detract from the brilliancy of Dewey's achievement that we found the Spaniards unexpectedly unready for our assault. The Englishmen had nothing but admiration for the showing which the Americans made at the battle of Manila. This kindness, courtesy, generosity find whole-souled sympathy which we found among the English everywhere Is to a great extent a new growth. We were friendly enough on foreign stations previous to the Spanish war. but Mill there was a little feeling of something that resembled Jealousy. All that has been swept away. The feeling of the English toward us is undoubtedly deep and sincere. I believe that the Americana understand and appreciate it, and that we are certainly moving toward an alliance, perhaps not a paper alliance, but certainly a closer union and understanding betveen the two English-speaking peoThis war has opened our eyes. We have been living with a Chinese wall around us and there were many things which we eld not see. This war showed us that all the great European nations were unfriendly with the single exception of England and it also, I believe, opened England's eyes to our prowess and our possible mlaMon and development.

NOVELIST R'UiETl'S TROl'OLC The Chlragoan Spoiled, fix Too XIud& Forelsn Travel. 1 Itlchard Henry StodJard, In New York 1111 and Express. Mr. Fuller prefers French and Italian to English literature, which, of course, he Is at liberty to do. He may prefer Corneille to Shakspeare. but he will hardly make converts. He may wish. to exchange Paul llourget for Thomas Hardy. Mathilda Serao for Mrs. Ward. Guy d MsupaMuint for Henry James, Paul llervieu for How ells; he will practically stand alone. If, however, he can exchange Mr. Ee Gallienne for any French, or Italian, or, Span lsh writer no matter whom we can assure him that he will meet with no opposition. Even d'Annunrio we will take In exchange, for that young man. obnoxious as he is, has at least talent of a certain kind. In these days culture Is too universally spread to be the exclusive property cf any single nation. There are people of culture all over the world, and Philistines, too, in masses. And. as a matter of fact, the thirst for culture is nowhere so acute or universal as In these materialistic United States. Miss Agnes Reppller has pokd fun, in ber own good-natured, delightful way, at our "series of six readings on Spinoza" and Kant's 'Critic of Pure Reason" in twelve Lr-nten lectures, but, though this may not unfairly present a characteristic trait of our hunt for culture, the underlying idea is an admirable one, and one, moreover, that is found in so intense a form nowhere else in the world. Mr. Fuller has traveled extensively in Europe, and this has been his undoing. If Eowell were alive to-day he would tear up his paper on "A Certain Condescension in Foreigners" and in its Mead write one on "A Certain CondescenIcn In Americans who Have Heen Abroad." Theee victims of Illogical standards of comparison, of onesided observation, are many In the land. Tluy go abroad In search of the culture of the countries they visit, and neglect to study their phillMlnes. Yet that obnoxious race Is as numerous In France and in Germany as here, and far more prejudiced and stupid. Mr. Fuller f imply has made the mistake of comparing the cultured people he met abroad, not with ur own, but with our phllUtlr.es. and the result is his lecture, which Is untrue becaure it Is based on an Incorrect comparison. We have done a giant's work in half a century we have achieved more than any other nation ever achieved within so small a limit of time. We have given to the world the telegraph, the telephone, electric lighting and all modern Implements of agriculturematerial things for Philistine, no doubtbut we have ahb given it Whistler,, and Sargent, and Emerson, and Ior.efellow snd other men of liRht and leading not a few. We are constantly solving eocial problems which confront u before they do the older world from which we sprang we are doing our "dav's work" freely, uncomplainingly, optimistically, and are really not more indifferent to culture th-n are the phillstlr.es of Europe, whom Mr. Fuller never took the trouble to inspect.
