Rt. Rev. Herman J. Alerding, Roman Catholic bishop of Fort Wayne, was born In Newport, Ky., April 13, 1845, of German parentage. He attended an academy In Vincennes, Ind., and completed his ecclesiastical studies at St. Thomas, Ky., and at St. Meinrad's Abbey in Spencer County, Indiana. At the age of 23 he was ordained a priest at St. Meinrad's. For a time he acted as an Instructor in the seminary and later filled pulpits in several cities and towns of Indiana. He was raised to the bishopric of Fort Wayne early in 1900 and was consecrated with elaborate ceremony on November 30 of that year. CONGRATULATIONS TO: Anson Phelps SJokes, Jr., "the millionaire minister o fthe gospel," 38 years old today. Dr. Daniel C. C. Lowell, noted Boston educator, 61 years old today. Why He Was Late. "What made you so late?" "I met Smithson." "Well, that is no reason why you should be an hour late getting home to supper." "I know, but I asked him how he was feeling, and he insisted on telling me about his stomach trouble." Did you tell him to take Chamberlain's Tablets?" "Sure, that is what he needs." Sold by all dealers. Pike Once High Priced Fish. The pike is a fish for which now there is little demand. Yet Edward I. , who regulated the prices of different fish that his subjects might not be at the mercy of the venders, fixed the values of pike higher than fresh salmon and at more than ten times that of the best turbot. Pike are supposed to live longer than any other 'fish In spite of their former popularity as food. Gesner relates that In 1497 a pike was caught in Suabia with a ring attached inscribed, "I was first put Into this lake by the hands of the governor of the universe, Frederick II. . Oct 5. 1230." This Is the fish's story. London Spectator. The king of Italy, having received Hdmund Privat in audience, has now read the Esperanto gramaar and has studied the exercises. The Italian minister of education also received Mr. Privat. In Bagdad, moreover, Esperanto is rapidly progressing. In Paris a big Esperanto dinner has been held, and M. Michelin, of motor tire fame, is giving 20,000 francs in prizes offered to the young people of France. CURIOUS BITS OF HISTORY THE GREAT EXPOUNDER OF THE CONSTITUTION. By A. W. MACY. Few people fully realize the wonderful service rendered to the people of the United States by Chief Justice John Marshall. He presided over the Supreme court from 1801 till his death, In 1835. During that time 1,215 cases came before the court for decision, and In 519 of them Marshall himself delivered the opinion. Of the 1,215 cases, 62 Involved questions of constitutional law, and he delivered the opinion In 36 of the 62. Not only so, but In 23 of the 36 cases there was no dissenting opinion by any of the associate Justices. For these reasons Marshall is looked upon as the great expounder of the Constitution. Hia record as a judge and the soundness of his opinions seem all the more wonderful when we consider the conditions of the times. The Constitution, the laws, the nation Itself, were all in their Infancy. The republic was an experiment, and many doubted Its survival. Without precedents, one might almost . say without guide or compass, Marshall delivered opinions and Interpretations that have become foundation-stones of our national existence. tCopyrlabt. 1911, by Joseph B.

"Special Correspondence. 99

The Indianapolis News is having a terrible tme to explain why it was that Roosevelt won in Illinois. As nearly as we can make out the effect of the retouched-in-the office correspondence that "Ernie" Lewis has been sending out of Chicago we learn that Lo rimer became so angry at Roosevelt for being snubbed at the Hamilton dinner that he sought to do him harm by supporting Mr. Taft. Mr. Lorlmer however, according to the NewB, did not support Mr. Taft and Mr. Taft had no previous understanding with Mr. Lorlmer In fact according to the News it was an unfair and scurrilous performance of the Roosevelt people to say that there was any connection between Taft and Lorlmer. This sounds so confusing that w are compelled to believe that the people of Illinois knew what they Vere doing. It was Senator Aldrich himself who said that President Taft did have an understanding with Lorlmer and perhaps this is one of the times when that Senator can be counted on to have told the truth. We thought "Ernie" could do better than Bill, Blodget in most things but apparently it is harder for him to get away with It.

Spring Cleaning.

Now that the Light, Heat and Power company has opened its new 01 flees showing every intention of staying with the job perhaps it is almost time for the holes in Main street to be fixed. In "the fire of spring" it may not be amiss to remind this company that it is being watched with care in the short space of time that there is to elapse before it seeks a franchise again. The public cares just as much for the public obligations to be fulfilled along with the more important things such as new offices.

Some Figures.

In the news columns today there appears an interview with William Bailey, chairman of the committee which is seeking to make Main street reflect the prosperity, progress and enterprise of Richmond. His figures are based on the government reports of the Bureau of Commerce and Labor and on a wide correspondence with those cities which have adopted this form of lighting. One of the best ways to decide any public question is to have the facts presented. Mr. Bailey is an electrical expert of national standing as well as at home where he has a reputation for the highest integrity and public spiritedness. His remarks and figures seem convincing provided that the admission is once made that Main street should be lighted befitting the worth of the town.

A Pretty Good Town.

Sometimes it seems that Richmond is better appreciated by the people who live in other places than by the people who live here. Contemplate what our neighbor to the north. The New Castle Times has to say about us: 1 "The city of Richmond has been extremely fortunate in gifts from several wealthy and public-spirited citizens. A magnificent hospital, a splendid church edifice, a beautiful park, are among the monuments for the benefit of the people of that handsome town. Recently one of the enterprising merchants of Richmond donated 2,500 elm trees, to be planted on Arbor day, April 26. So pleased was the state forestry association over this magnificent gift that it will center its efforts in that city on that day to promote interest in forestry, and the proper planting of shade trees along the streets. There is need of something to be done along this line in the city of New Castle. With the paving of the streets- and about three miles are to be paved this year should some the planting of shade trees and the beautiflcation of lawns. Let the people take this matter up and see that these things are done." The Kansas City papers recently remarked editorially on Richmond music, the art exhibits and the Richmond High School. Magazine articles often contain references to this town's interest in things which are not merely material. It is just as well for people to realize that they live in a pretty good town.

Ahdalusian Customs. In Andalusian houses no refreshments are offered to callers except on the saint's day of the hostess, when a large trayful of dulces or cakes Is handed around. These dulces are ornamented with little sugar images of saints and angels. If It is a first call that is being made the hostess offers her house and everything It contains to the callers, who In reply bow, saying that the house is in the best hands In the world and that their only wish Is that the present may long have health and happiness to enio.v it.

What A Christian is Saved For To Serve By Rev. R W. Pope. Superintendent of Men, Moody Bible Institute, Chicago

TEXT I am debtor. Romans 1:14. In his letter to the church at Rome Paul says: "I am debtor both to the Greeks and Barbarians, both to the wise and to the unwise." When and where did Paul discover that he was In debt to the very verge of bankruptcy? Not in the theological school at Jerusalem. More likely it wae on the way to Damascus. When God drew aside the veil which hides the earthly from the heavenly, and gave him a glimpse of the risen and glorified Jesus, he learned more theology in one moment than in all the years he had spent at the feet of Gamaliel. That little revelation of Jesus wrought a revolution in. Saul. That is what revelations are for. As soon as he became acquainted with Jesus be felt that every one else ought to know him. That priceless knowledge was a sacred trust, and he was a debtor to every one who knew him not Revelation Works a Revolution. Something of the same kind occurs at every true conversion. We realize that our relation to this world has changed almost as much as our relation to God. This is a lost world, and while we are still in it, we are no longer of it. We belong to the lifesaving service, and it is our business to help seek and save the lost. And so as we go through life we no longer ask, "How much can we get out of this world?" but rather, "How much can we put into it?" And with Jesus Christ to draw upon, every one of us has more to give to the world than the world wide world has to give to us. "I'm a child of the king, I'm a child of the king." The obligation to serve our day and generation is a threefold one. It arises from the commands of the Lord Jesus. No one can read the New Testament without noticing that he expects every one of his followers to become a soul-winner. He taught the world thirty years by example and three years by precept. Then, at the close of his earthly career he uttered one command, "Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature." That command remains in force to this day. One sinner thinks that he Is not very bad, another is afraid that he cannot hold out. while others have doctrinal difficulties of various kjnds. And what Is worse still, most of hem are not quite ready to do their duty when they see it without more or less persuasion. The changed religious conditions require it. Formerly It was customary for people to attend church. Indeed, one was hardly counted respectable unless he did. That day has gone by. The world no longer comes to the church for the Gospel. The majority of the people today do not attend church. One reason for this is the strenuous life which many lead. Tfeey work so hard through the week that they consume seven days strength in six days time. When Sunday comes they are so exhausted that they think they cannot attend church. In many churches also the Gospel is no longer preached, but only a cheap substitute for it. Could Jesus Enter the Average Church? It Is said that a poor man once applied for admission to a wealthy church. The committee soon saw that he would add nothing to their financial strength or social standing, and recommended that he wait a while. To their surprise he soon appeared again. At a loss what to sajr, one of them suggested that he talk with the Lord about the matter. The man meekly consented and went away. In a few weeks he appeared before the committee again. They were now at their wits' end, but, determined to contest every step of the way, they inquired, "Brother, did you talk with the Lord about this matter?" I did." "And what did he say! "He told me not to get dis couraged, but to be as patient as I could. He said he had been trying to get into this church himself ever since It was organized, but that he had not succeded yet." This story may seem a little exaggerated, but It Is to be feared that there are not a few churches where such an Interview might occur. For these and other reasons a large part of every community practically ignores the church. This being the case, there is only one alternative; the church must carry the Gospel to the world, for the Gospel they must have. But who is to do it? The laymen and women. They know the people, they mewjt them In the shops, and stores, and on the street. They know their needs and disposition as a minister cannot. Thi3 is the New Testament idea, "To every man his work." An Odd Bird's Nest. Tb oddest of all birds' nests is the one built by the tontobane, a South African songster. It Is built of cotton and always upon the tree producing the material. In constructing the domicile the female works inside and the male outside, where he builds a sentinel box for his own special use. He sits in the box and keeps watch or sings nearly all the time, end when danger comes In the form of a hawk or a snake he warns the family, but never enters the main nest.
