Benjamin Andrews, superintendent of the schols of Chicago and late president of Brown university, in a recent discussion on European Politics predicted that Euiope would soon be plunged into a great continental war into which the United States would be dragged if it did not go in of its own accord. After speaking of his travels in Mohammedan lands, he touched upon the Turkish question and said: "The greater part of the Turkish question is that of the occupation of Asia, and that leads to the question of European war. Almost everything in the social and political outlook in Europe points to an impending great war. The money power is the great force in the preservation of peace in Furope. The .loanable billions are chiefly in the hands of the jews, a people that dislike war and love thrift. Another great peace power has been the ignorance as to the effectiveness of the complicated military armament of the present day. The present war with Spain will cast great light on this difficulty, and the eyes of Europe are upon us. Some things are already settled, and one is that almalgam armor is better than steel for warships. "I am for peace, but I believe a continent! war is impending. And Great Britain, I believe, kas the greatest chance of coming out first in the convulsion. But a still greater factor, significant for Great Britain, is the constant bend of the British mind for conquest, though Gladstone consistently combated further British imperialism in his later years. Cecil Rhodrs is work
ing northward with a great British empire in South Africa, and the Dutch republic there will Jon be English territory. Then will corr.e British expansion through Turkey in Asia toward India, and the significance of this will be that Great Britain will soon be at the back door of Constantinople and will say to Russia: 4 You shall never have the Bosporus.' The result of this stupendous chess playing will be that the oriental question will be shifted to the Pacific coast of Asia, which Russia has already recognized, and to which she is moving with significent strides. "This brings us to the question of our own attitude in the final adjustment. We are now a great nation that must be reckoned with in the future affairs of mankind. There is no choice open to us. The world has become so small through steam and electricitv that we must take a hand. We are no longer a hermit nation, and our future attitude, especially in Pacific waters, will be watched with great interest and significance. I believe it no violation of the Monroe doctrine to take an aggressive part when compelled
to.' AVANT A SI' KCl A L SKSSION. Representative Wise has received a communication from Indianapolis asking him to sign a petition to Gov. Munt wherein he with other representatives offer their services free in case a special session is called for the purpose of enacting a lawauthorizing the Indiana soldiers to vote in the field. This is a foolish proposition and has so been construed by Mr. Wise. Such a law would be unconstitutional and the constitution cannot be amended except in the manner itself prescribes. The Indianapolis Journal in relation to this special session talk says: "It may be unfortunate that the constitution prevents such an enactment, but, as it does, nothing can be done until it is amended. The special session talk should cease. WILL IT K I'EACK ? Spain has at last come to her senses and has sued for peace. Her ideas of honorable surrender have been smashed and she has at last been obliged to appeal direct to President McKinley. She has in fact lost all her possessions in the western hemisphere, her navy has been destroyed and her treasury exhausted. The president certainly should shov ker no favors. She has been vanquished by the power of American ami - and she must pay dear for her experience. A Prince Bismark is dead. In his death the world loses one of its most commanding figures. Among the names of the European statesmen of the nineteenth century whose achievements have illustrated the history of their times there is not a name more renowned than that of Bismarck. He was the "strong man" of his generation. He possessed the genius of power. lie it was who laid the foundation and crowned the edifice of the new Ger'r.r'n empire. lie transformed the map of Europe. He overthrew or humiliated the potentates who stood in his way. He gained the chief object of his desire, gained it through the ways and by the methods of a conquerer. The highest price ever reached by wheat was $5 per bushel in 181 2. The extraordinary price was due to the failure of the English crop and a very high tariff an cereals. In November of i860 wheat sold at $2.05 in Chicago and during the following spring a "cor ner" sent the price of $2.85 by May. In 1888 wheat went up to $2 as the result of a "corner," but such instances are rare. The recent Leiter "corner" brought the price up to about $1.60 in in local markets for a few days. During the fifteen business days of Tuly the revenue from the war tax averaged 5 1,850,000 a day. If this rate of collection keeps up the revenue law receipts will be nearly four times greater than the frameis of the bill estimated who figured it would yield $150,000,000.
IN HIS NEW FiELD.
Father I.Hinper I ' -. h - hi- l-'irt Serg mop to a l'l mouth Coag relation , The first Sunday of Kev. Father Lemper's administration as pastor of St. Michael's Catholic congregation of this city will be remembered with joy by all who were present at High Mas?. The good father endeared himself to all by the kindness and love manifested in his introductory sermon. After reading the epistle of the day I Cor. 10: 6-13 and Luke 19:41-47, he reiered to the love of .lesus for all man kind, to the feelings of affection mamtested by him when looking on Jerusalem, the city of his love. The good father told his people that the priest of the Catholic church most have .lesus for his pattern in all things and especially in his love lor poor Finners. lie must be zealous for the honor and glory of God, as .Je6iis was for the glory of his Heavenly Father, lie said he was convinced that he had good spiritual children in the congregation in Plymouth. He was sure they were zealous for the glory and honor of (iod. He could not think otherwise when he beheld the beautiful decorations and alters adorning the interior of the otherwise humble house of (iod. He trusted that in the years to come a more magnilicent temple would be erected for tue honor and glory of the living (Iod. He was assured that all would work together in peace harmony and love, and prayed to : le sacred heart of Jesus for his divine blessing upon St. Michael's congregation of Plymouth. The attendance was large. The de votion of the people humble and sin cere. The singing wbb in strict accord ance with the liturgy of the Catholic church. The services were very impressive and could not but convince an observ er of the devotion of the the people and the largeheartedness and love of the reverend pastor. We join with ail good citizens of Plymouth in wishing the reverend Father success in his new field of labor. THE JAIL IS HAUNTED. A Lone llluck Ipwter Krps Company With .Jerry Ivriitcr. Jerry Kreitzer, who was the sole oc cupant of the jail for some time, says that something uncanny has taken up its abode behind the bar6. Several nights ago he was aroused by the "touch of an unseen hand" and got his eyes open just in time to see a black form skulk away into the shadows. Since then he has seen the strange visitor again and again. It's method of vanishing is peculiar. Instead of doing the act by the aid of lightning and thunder, like ghosts do who guard hidden treasures, it simply grows smaller and smaller until it attains the size of a rat At this stage it lingers a brief while, when, whisk! without more ado, it is gone. AmMmI Near Una Gr--u. A distressing accident happened near Ftna Green on Saturday, Juiy Thomas Sheets, a farmer, was cutting his oats and l ad made but two trips around a field with his self-binder, when his little son, aged lour years, was caught by the sickle of the machine and had both his feet cut off. The little leliow was standing in the tall oats, which hid him from view, and the father drove the reaper over him. His first intimation of an accident was when he felt the machine shaking after it struck the child. Looking down to see what was the cause of the vibration, he was horrified to see his little son in the agonies of death. The father picked up his son and hurried to the house, but had only reached it when the little fellow passed away. Besides having both feet cut ofT, the little fellow was injured internally. He was unconscious, and apparently suflered no pain from the time of the accident until he breathed his last, which was about an hour. The father was very much distracted over the affair. I itli 1 Mo-noli Ht Valparaiso. Kev. L. A. Moench, the future pastor of St. Paul's Catholic church, arrived in the city last evening from Plymouth on the 7:21 Fort Wayne train. A merry crowd of perhaps lifty of his parishoners gathered at the depot to welcome him in the name of the congregation, and when the train rolled up to the station each of their countenances as sumed a look of searching expectancy. As the reverened gentleman was alighting his identity was discovered to the crowd and from then until he reached the waiting hack was a period of in cessant handshaking. He was driven to the pastorial residence, where a large number had congregated, and a second right royal ovation was given him. Kev. Meonch comes here highly reccommended, and we predict for him a long and successful pastora! Kev. Moench has been p. omoted to Dean and receives the title of Very lie?, on taking charge of the parish in this city. - Valparaiso Star. Ci. A. WeWtev Baila Hi OnlWty. Mr. Q, A. Webster, the photographer, has sold his photograph gallery to Miss Anna Dunn, of Laporte, who is already here acquainting herself with the situation. She will take possession August ID. Miss Dunn formerly lived here,
was a teacher in the public schools of Marshall county for nine years and for a time clerked in the dry goods store of A. Ii. CoiTy. Mrs. Bing Bower, residing north of the city is her sister. For the past nine years 6he has been emploed in the photograph gallery of Mr. Dryant at Laporte. Mr. Webster has purchased the Ileiuina gallery at Valparaiso and will move his family there about Aug. 20. During Mr. Webster's stay here he has made many friends, and what is more has given his gallery a reputation that seldom conies to artists in cities no larger than Plymouth. His removal from our city wi'l be deeply regretted by friends and patrons.

Laid to Rest The funeral services of Katherine McDonald were held Friday afternoon at the residence of her father on North Michigan street. The number of her friends who came to pay their last solemn respects was very large. Kev. II. V. Keed, of Chicago, conducted the services, after which tha remains were laid away in Oak Hill cem etery. Miss McDonald was dearly beloved by many, and ther' are others beside those to whom she is nearest in kin, who will look back upon this day as one of the saddest in their lives.

Did You Take Scotfs Emulsion through the winter? If so, we are sure it quieted your cough, healed the rawness in your throat, increased your weight, gave you more color, and made you feel better in every way. But perhaps your cough has come back again, or you are getting a little thin and pale. Then, why not continue the same helpful remedy right through the summer? It will do you as much good as when the weather is cold. Its persistent use will certainly give you a better appetite and a stronger digestion. It will cure your weak throat and heal your inflamed lungs. It will cure every case of consumption, when a cure is possible. Don't be persuaded to take something they say is just as good.
