"'IIe was a very Gibralter in cLarac/er.
Nothing could swerve him from his
purpose. Not a wall in all our church-
os in Chicago but bears the inlpress of
this great, good man. It could be said
of him that he had a character of ex-
treme gentleness, tender as mellow
childhood, lle could have truthfully
suug wi~ h the old bard, 'Thy gentleness
hath made me great.' As a household
character his deeds will forever live.
l?he care in the home was most won-
derfully kind. It was 'sweetness long
drawn out,' This wasone of tile ele-
meuts in his makeup. It demonstrat-
ed the gianthood of his being in the
care of all the churches."
"Tim deeds of the Nestor of Chicago
Metho(li~m will never die. The picture
that old blind Ilomer paints of ancient
Ncstorism canmlt match the wise
career of Luke llitehcock, the noble.
None knew him bdt to love him. We
shall see tits good face no more. Saint
Luke, as he was called, has passed to
the sainthood of upper skies."

Much Sparring.
Fur the IIawk-Eye.
There is much sparring now between
the great powers for position. The
territory of these decaying nations
furnish the t)one of contention. The
United States kindly proposes to re-
lieve Spain of most of her colonies.
England, Russia, Germany, France and
Japau are hotly contending for the
strongest commercial, political and
military hold on China. Also sharp
practices and much ill feeling is seen
in the partition of Africa. i
For sewral years the German Kaiser '
has been swinging, around the circle l
looking for something to turn up, zkt
last he has found a job suited to his
genius; Apparently the Sultan of
Turkey and ale Kaiser are as thick as
three in a bed. As a result the latter
has been giveu a free hand to colonize
Syria in general and to be the patron
and protector of the holy places at
)
Jerusalem and I alestine in particular.
On hls late visit to the holy city, he
proclaimed in the language of the
angles 1898 )'ears ago, ,Peace on earth
good will toward men," and further
that, he and his people, the Germans
wo'uld serve the Lord. 11o dedicated
a German christian Church and did
several other things looking to the re-
habillitation of Zion and the holy land.
The time is not far off for the restora-
tion of Palesune to.its ancient fertility
and an emancipation from Turkish
misrule. Possibly the Kaiser is the
advance agent. It has been ordered by
the Sultan that no more Jewish emi
grants be allowed tO locate in l'alestine.
This coupled with the divine mission
of the Kaiser looks as if Palestine
would shortly be a christian state.
The only serious matter in connnec-
ties with the Kaiser's Zion enterprise
and the German colonists in the plain
of Esdraelon uear Mt. Carmel, is that
the place in the light of prophecy and
the political, moral and material situa-
tion in that part of the world, will in
the near future be the battle field of
the kings of Europe and principle na-
tions of the ~hole world. There the
Kaiser will h,~ve full employmeut for
his half million soldiers. German blood
will stain the great plain of Jeyreel in
defeats of tile Kaiser's Zion and Syria
colonies. It is a wise stroke of Eng-
lish diplomacy to approve the emperor's
projects, tie will serve as a buffer to

reception, l'he Governor was present,
and Mr. l)iegnan was presented with a

The Atchinson Globe says tha~ the
discouragement in mending one's ways
is that there is always someone who

Neither ~ Pennsyl-
vania or Chicago's newspaper trust--ac-
cording to the inter Ocean--appear to
be having an easy time of it just at
present.
The false alarm through the Associ-
ated Press regarding the peace nego-
tiations at P~ris being broken off gave
the Inter Ocean another good chance
and it improved the opportunity.

"Nestor of Methodism."
Inter Ocean.
The Rev. Frank Burner of Grace M.
E. church, Kensington and Michigan
avenues, preached Sunday morning on
"The Nestor of Chicago Me hodism."
He said in part.~

character. IIe was a many-sided man.
The outer view of his life in church de-
velopment was as clear as a sunbeam.
tie had the saintly ruggedness of St.
Paul--that great christian pioneer. He
was early ou the 'firing line'in the wild-
erness of Illinois, that the 'desert

What the tteroie Cartwright was to
Methodism in Southern Illhmis this
noble man of God was in Northern Ill-
inois. The headquarters for his great
campaigns was then little Chicago, in
her babyhood. It took a real hero, in
1839, to root the church fast in the
loose soil of the then coming greatChi-
cage. He was the man for the hour.
The rapid growth of thecity demanded
a genius for the work of church im-
provement. That genius was found in
While Iowa with sue accord feels
capable of gracefully assuming, in the
person of Hen. D. B. Henderson of Du-
buque, the responsibilities as well as
honors of the Speakership of the House
of l~epresentatives, the logic of events
seem to point to Mr. Reid. This is too
tee opinion of Mr. Henderson.
When the non-partisan commercial
agencies report the volume of business
the greatest in history mid the news-
papers all over the state an advance in
in real estate, the person who will not
acknowledge that times are all right is
a hidebomid who will not take even
good times simply because they are
labeled Republican.
The Dewey way seems to indicate
success just as much now as it did last
May. The latest accomplishment, for
which he is receiving many compli-
ments, is the successful raising of two
Spanish cruisers which he originally
sunk. The Admiral intends to add
them to his fleet as soon as they are
made fit for service.
Iowa is taking a very prominent po-
sition in National affairs just at pres-
ent and a leading one upon carrying
out the advanced position taken hp by
the Republican party for sound money.
It is the party's duty to carry this
princiule to the end, j ust as it did in ac-
eomplishingtheDingley law in response
to the demaud of the people for a pro-
