- - The Ligonier Banne LIGONIER, v INDIANA .. THE HEART OF YOUTH. We have been told that as long as we keep our hearts young we need bave no fear of the depressing lonellness of advancing years, and many &rit_.ers more or less experienced in such matters have suggested many .’wayeswin which we can accomplish that desired end. No two natures, however, are alike, and it foflows that no set of hard 'and fast rules can be made to ap ply to each distinct personality. Tha man or woman who passes through life alive to the blessings which abound on every side rarely ceases to become an _gctive contributor to the lives of others, and as long as a person actually par t!cfputes in any work, large or small the influenice of © his persohality i 1 bound to be felt and his counsel re - garded. It is only when one has tired of the game, or enters only half-heart edly.into affairs outside of his own special interests that he ceases to ex ercise any influence, and his individu ality is uo longer recognized. Enthusi

asm seems in some way to'be an at tribute of the youthful character; al any rate, it is far. easier-to become in terested in what is going on inour im mediate circle when the pulse beats high and the blood courses warmly than in later years when so many of us are concerned only with our own af fairs and evince but small interest in the doings of others. -

In the good old days they used te have signboards at the crossroads ir the country region to point the pilgrim on his way. It was always a cheery sign. It spoke a welcome to the stran. ger. It indicated a disposition to be helpful. But these signboards are nearly all gone. Only now and then you see one, and then it seems like the relic of a bygone friendship. It seems to say to the stranger: “We once took an ‘interest in you, bhut we do so ng longer; if you don't know the way, what do we care?” That is the situation today; a forlorn one, indeed; _a cheerless one. No little sign thrown out, saying: “We are thinking of you, we care for you, we want you to go right:” = Now, this. ought not to be. There should be little signboards to greet him, and to tell him the way he otig_ht to go. . This thought is getting some headway in Massachusetts, where there is dn effort to restore the sienboards, and to give to the stranger the help of knowing where he is.

Mhere is a new reform out In lowa, and it is started by 18 young ladies, prominent in social circles, who have at last discovered the abomination that exi%in mere gosslp,'_and so they have ~ organized to suppress it, says Ohlo * State Journal. They call their organizationsthe “Antigossip society.” This i. a fine effort. It means intellectual and moral uplift. It means that conversation shall deal with real things—with , science, philosophy, literature, hctory, nature and those things that adorn and uplift life. It is not to be thought for an .instant that it is the young women alone that néed to organize' for this high purpose. The male section of mankind® neetls just such a reformatory movement. We might say they need it more than the women. L ! e Maj. Gen. Leonard Wood, who is on his way as special envoy from the Uni ted States to the centenary .celebra. tion of the independence of the Argentine republic at Buenos Ayres, stopped of at Havana, where the former American governor of the island had a reception which left no doubt as to the " place he holds in Cuban hearts. In fact, it may be said he showed them how 'to govern themselves, and ‘the - success they have attained is a tribute to the effectiveness of his lessons. :

HONOR ROOSEVELT

GIVEN DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF LAWS AT CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY.

IS CORDIALLY WELCOMED

Former President Wins Hearts of Students and Preceptors — Quiet . Ceremonies Mark Conferring, rof 'Honor by World’s Oldest University.

Cambridge, Eugland.—With quiet ceremony Cambridge university Thursday conferred the honorary degree of doctor of laws upon Theodore Roosevelt. L g

The former president was accompanied from London by Mrs. Roosevelt and his daughter, Mrs. Nicholas Longworth. _As the made their way through the narrow winding streets to the home of the great educational institutions the Americans were greet: ed by ik]thusiastic crowds. : Mr. Roosevelt was formally welcomed by Dr. A. J. Mason, vice-chan-cellor of Cambridge university, with whom he had a brief chat. Then an hour was devoted to a visit to Emmanuel college, founded in 1548, and where John Harvard, the butcher's son who was to become a clergyman in the Massachusetts colony and the first benefactor of Harvard college, was graduated in 1631. : )

As Mr. Roosevelt accepted his diploma the students who crowded the galleries shouted “Teddy! Teddy!” and the whole audience cheered. :

-~ The old senate building was packed. The galleries were occupied by students and during the ceremony they swung a Teddy bear above the center of the hall, where it dangled to the entertainment of everybody. Mr. Roosevelt joined in . the pleasantry and as he was leaving the building reached up and patted the toy beast with his hand. :

The audience was decidedly friendly. When the vice-chancellor referred to the university's guest as ‘““a friend of peace and a friend of the human race whose fame is attested by all Europe,” there was a roar of approval from his listeners. :

FRENCH SUBMARINE IS SUNK

Every Member of Vessel's Crew, Numbering 27, Drowned—Rammed by Ferryboat.

Calais, France.—While trying to dive under a ferry baat in the English channel Thursday, the French submarine Pluviose was rammed and sunk -with all on board.

The Pluviose carried a crew of twenty-three men and four officers, and all went down when the vessel sank. The: disaster was witnessed by the passengers on the ferryboat,

The ferryboat Pas de Calais, crowded with passengers bound for Dover, had just left Calais when one of her side wheels experienced a violent shock. The captain, believing that his boat had struck a buoy, stopped his vessel and a moment later thg hull of the Pluviose came to the surface a short distance astern.

A boat was hurriedly launched from the ferryboat and went alongside of the stricken craft, but the sailors

rapped in vain against her metal sides and in a few minutes after the submarine arose to the surface she sank again beneath the waters.

Patten, almost on thi eve of his retirement, was forced| to “take the count” in one of the liveliest bouts he has ever had with t}le bears on the board of trade. ‘The big speculator acknowledged defeat by throwing several million bushels of September wheat at quotations sald to average fully ten cents a bushel under the purchase price. Many of his followers likewise suffered losses which in the aggregate amounted to: a large sum. The total loss sustained by Patten was $1,200,000 and by his friends $BOO,OOO, according to brokers’ estimates. :

8 DROWNED IN SHIP CRASH

COLLISION ON LAKE HURON DUE

TO DENSE FOG.

Freighter Frank H. Goodyear Sinks When Hit by the James B. Wood— Five Escape.

Port Huron, Micn.—Probably eighteen persons lost their lives in a collision between the large steel steam‘er Frank H. Goodyear -of the Mitchell Transit company and the steamer James' B. Wood, another steel vessel belonging to the Gilchrist Transportation company, in Lake Huron about thirty-five miles off Point Aux Barques. The Goodyear sank in 40 fathoms of water. But five 'persons were saved. - The collision occurred about six o'clock Tuesday morning in a heavy fog which overhung the lake. A partial list of missing follows: Mrs. Lillian Bassett, wife of cook, Algonac, Mich.; John Bassett, three years old, Algonac; Archie Fuller, second mate, Algonac; John Gibson, chief engineer; Gus Zaetsch, first mate, Algonac. - * When the steamers came together the crew of the Goodyear, which is reported to have been struck amidships, had time only to seize life preservers. Only a few could jump overboard before the boat began to fill with water. The cook had just sounded the second call for breakfast on the Goodyear when the crash came and many were in the messroom. All rushed on deck and then the boat began to sink. Several jumped into the water and managed to get out of reach of the boat, which was filling fast. . i

Suddenly the Goodyear parted in the center and with a sound which could be heard above the whistling of the Wood, sank out of sight, carrying with it all except five on.board.

The bow of the Wood was stove in, but she rested on her bulkhead, and, although some water flowed into the hold, was kept afloat with the pumps. Captain Gibson of the Wood ordered the lifeboats lowered and gave the crew instructions to make every possible effort to save any of the sailors of the sinking steamer. . :

Seek Life of Alfonso.

Madrid.—A national campaign of terrorism instigated by the anarchists has been begun in Spain and the government is alarmed over the situation. Stern repressive measures were ordered. The explosion of a bomb here Monday night, followed by the suicide of the thrower, coming after the three .outrages of the last week in Barcelona, is regarded as the beginning of the radicals’ campaign. After search and inquiry the police believe the last bomb exploded was intended for King Alfonso.

CHURCH FIGHT IS BREWING

Dr. Robert’s Opponents Seek to Oust Him From Presbyterian Office— Holds Two Berths.

Atlantic City, N. J.—The first hint of the movement to oust Rev. Dr. Willifam H. Roberts of Philadelphia from one of his two offices of stated clerk and treasurer of the Presbyterian general assembly, came in the report of the bills and overtures committee, which was presented to the assembly Saturday. 5 : It was stated in this report that 132 presbyteries had voted for a readjustment, while 136 had voted against any attempt to force Doctor Roberts to resign either of his positions. Twentyseven presbyteries had not voted, the report said. . - " Though no deductions were made from this vote, it is taken to mean that it depends on Doctdr Roberts himself as to whether he restgns in» office of treasurer. His opponents claim that the holding of the two offices gives Doctor Roberts too much power in the assembly and in church affairs. An appeal to Gov. James M. Gillett of California to prevent the holding of the Jeffries-Johnson fight on Independence day was introduced by Rev. F. L. Forbes of Seattle, Wash. The committee headed by Rev. E. D. Warfield, president of Lafayette college, presented a report in which it declared the belief “that the minority members of the New York présbytery had established a prima facie case of heresy, and the matter has now been referred to the judicial commission of the assembly, who will hear withesses and report their findings for final action by the assembly.”

70,000 GET WAGE INCREASE

Standard Oil Adds Many MHll}ms to Pay Envelopes of Its Employees. G

New York.—A voluntary wage increase that will affect approximately 70,000 men, has been made by the Standard Oil company. The remarkable increase to workmen, who in the entire history of the concern, have neyer been on strike, ranges from 6 to 10 per cent. The order is retroactive and became effective May 1. It is estimated that the company will add from $6,000,000 to $10,000,000 to its annual pay roll expense. : The new scale affects employees engaged in the company’s works and factories, but the office men will not be benefited by this increase. Most of the employees who will get the increase are laborers, and the advance applies to all the subsidiary companies in the United States.

Naval Bill Passes Senate.

Washington.—By the decisive vote of 35 to 26 the senate Monday approved the two-battleship program which has already gone through the house. Both of the new ships will be of the Dreadnaught class, and the most- powerful fighting machines in the world. - In addition, the senate added a provision to the bill for one submarine boat and six torpedo boat destroyers, none of which were provided for in the bill as it passed the house. As the bill goes to conference, it provides for two battleships, to cost not exceeding $6,000,000 exclusive of armament; two fleet colliers to cost not more than $1,000,000 each; five submarine torpedo. boats at a total cost of not more than $2,500,000, and six torpedo boat destroyers, to cost not more than $750,000 each,

Suggestion and Practical Thought

The Source of Christ's Power.—Vs. 22, 23.° What was the effect upon the multitude of the multiplication of the

loaves and, fishes? “The feeding of the five thousand was the quietest and least imposing of Christ’s miracles. It is safe to say that only a few of the people were aware of what was being done uatil it was over."—David James Burrell, D. D, LL. D. . The Imperiled Disciples and Christ's Good Cheer.—Vs. 24-27. Why did Christ, if his disciples were to be in 8o great danger, thrust them forth into it without himself? The danger was not apparent at first. “It was an easy crossing, and it was quite calm, and it 'was not far; they could see the other side. He separated himself from them with a purpose. He bad many a lesson for them to learn. The night became unruly, and no small tempest lay upon them; their bearings were lost, ‘and neither sail nor oar could serve them. Their thoughts must have pressed all and only in one dlrecti_on-—-to the mountain-top where Jesus was!”—Rev. Armstrong Black.

When did Jesus come to them in their distress? “In the fourth watch of the night,” between three and six o'clock in the morning. Why did he wait so long before coming? ‘“We ‘may learn from this the delays of his love. Because he loved Mary and Martha and Lazarus, he stayed still, in strange inaction, for two days, after their message. Because he loved Peter and the praying band, he let him He in prison till the last hour of the last watch of the last night before his intended execution, and then delivered him with a leisureliness (making him put on article after article of dress) which tells of conscious omnipotence. Heaven’s clock goes at a different rate from our little timepieces.”—Alexander Maclaren, Why did Christ come to them walking on the waves? He must go to them in that way, or not at all. Besides, he doubtless had a desire to lift the disciples’ theught of him to a higher plane, and prepare them for the full recognition of his divinity. “The ‘miracle of the feeding of the multitude had been a‘}bicture of the last supper, a prophecy of his death; and this miracle is a prophecy of his resurrection.”—Rev. David Smith.

How did the apparition affect the disciples? They cried out in great terror, thinking it a ghost. *“All at once, in ‘the track that lay behind them, a figure appeared. As it passed onward over the water, seemingly upborne by the waves as they rose, not disappearing as they fell, but carried on as they rolled, the silvery moon laid upon ‘the trembling waters the shadows of that form as it moved, long and dark, on their track. St. John uses an expression which shows us, in the pale light, those in the boat intently, fixedly, fearfully, gazing at the apparition as it moved still closer and closer.”—Edersheim.

Why did Christ (Mark) make as if going straight by the disciples? “He would wish his disciples to recognize him. He would wish them to understand distinctly what he was doing, and what he had done, and what it was in his power to do. He would wish to pass onward by their side, and in their view, till it should be the very - best moment to turn and give them relief.”—Morison. How did Christ reassure them when they cried out in fear? It must have been with a radiant smilec that he said, “Be of good cheers; it is I; be not afraid.” .

The Hglf-Hearted Disciple and Christ’s Rebuke.—Vs. 28-33. What disciple was first to answer Christ? Characteristically, Peter. And ‘“the combination of doubt (if it be thou’) with presumption (‘bid me come on the water’) is peculiarly characteristic of Peter.”—Edersheim.

What should this experience have done for Peter? “It should have made him more cautious afterward in his avowals, his too self-confident boastings, of what he would do and dare for his.master.”—John Foster. How did Christ rebuke Peter as he saved him? It was a gentlg rebuke, “O thou of little faith, wherefore di?st thou doubt?”

What was the effect of this miratcle upon the disciples? @ They were amazed beyond measure, not only lat the walking on the water, but at the immediate cessation of the storm as soon as they had taken Jesus on board. :

Human Misery and Christ’s Healing. —Vs. 34-36. Where did the boat land? With what seemed miraculous suddenness (John) the disciples made the rest of their journey across to the ‘northwestern side of the .lake, and came into the land of Gennesaret.

What happened immediately on Christ’s - arrival? “See how Jesus Christ goes to work again.”—Joseph Parker.' He was at once recognized as the marvelous healer, and the whole region was aroused to bring their sick within reach of his wonderful powers. ' : How did they expect the cures to be wrought? They were satisfied if they could get close enough in the crowd merely to touch his garment. Illustration. Prayer is something for every day, and not merely for emergencies. “I knew a man, a good man, who passed through a threatening experience in his business for two or three weeks; and he prayed more in that time than he had prayed for fifteen or twenty years. He confessed as much to me, and he regarded it as an honorable confession. That is not Christian prayer.”—John Rhey Thompson, D. D. Christian prayer meets emergencies with the quiet confidence born of a long series of answered prayers and blessed communings all through the years.

CHINA IS GREATLY PLEASED

Reception Given to Prince Tsai-Tae . in United States Gratifying to : His Country.

Washington.—The Chinese govérn ment {8 greatly pleased with Prince Tsai-Tao's reception in the United States. The cordiality of the Amerti: can welcome is especially appreciated because of the sharp contrast with the peculiar attitude of Gredt Britain, which has sought to make courtesy to a member of the imperial family conditional upon political and <commercial considerations. :

Attended, as Rear Admiral Robley Evans said, by “every one | have ever seen,” the reception which fol]owed the banquet given .by Chang Yin-Tang, the Chinese minister, took place in the large ballroom on the tenth floor of the New Willard hotel. : The hall was bealltiflxll}' decorated for the occ¢asion, the Chinese and American flags being side by side at the far end of the hall so as to be the first objects seen by the guests as they entered.

Prince Tsai-Tao, Li Chang-Mai, Chang 'Yin‘Tang, the Chinese minister, and Yung Kwal, secretary of the Chinese legation, stood in line near the entrance and were presented to the yguests as they entered.

Origin of Humbug.

A plausible clue to the origin of “humbug” is that which credits the rubbishy coin made for Ireland by James 11. as the origin. The people talked of this base stuff as “uim bog” (soft copper), so that one frequently heard the phrase: “Don’t think of passing your uim bog off upon me.” As backing up this Irish ancestry one need only think of “sterling” coin and “sterling” worth. But the most p_opular claimant is Prof. Humbug, who ran a dancing academy in Dublin in 1777. His advertisements in the Freeman’s Journal of that year were masterpleces of appeal to the young ladies of the city, and their blarney would easily account for the popularity of the word. :
