Some very great men in the world’s history have tripped over some very small pebbles in mid-career and the luster of their fame has been dimin- ghed as a consequence. We trust that nothing of that kind will hap- pen to our highly distinguished Sec- refary of State, Hon. W, J. Bryan, whom we have steadily kept in view for years past as the best type of a great and well-rounded character this country has produced for the past two decades. As we expected, Mr. Bryan’s action in leaving the post which the Government pays him to fill in Washington and going off or. a Chautauqua lecture tour for the money there is in it has aroused in- stant criticism and this criticism is likely to increase rather than dimin- ish. Mr, Bryan says that the salary of kis office won't support him and thinks this fully justifies him in the course he has taken to increase his fncome. With equal propriety every other cabinet member could do the . same thing; the Jusdges of the Su-i preme Court could plead inadequate salaries and hike out for the fat flelds of the Chautauqua circuit; our OHOHAND VL ORI Kk and it may be used as a substitute if smbassudors at foreign courts, all & notoriously underpaid, could take on profitable side-lines, and logically glee.

The bloody yarns now coming over the cable of Bulgarian atrocities are increcible, but if they are true they degrade those people below the level of the lowest breech- clouted savages and they are not only unfit for freedom but they are tione too good to be put back under the gentle rule of their former Tur- Kkish masters.. i e () JORCHORCECHOACROA0NORA0: Wm mg 9; JULY 16 IN HISTORY. 9 mmmmm 1429—The town of Rheims, in France, was taken from the English by Joan of Are. 1717—Battle under the walls of Belgrade; the Austrians de- feated the Turks. 1760—Battle of Exorf; the Prince of Brunswick defeated the Prus- sians. 1749—Battle of Wigoya; the Poles defeated the Russians. 1808-—Battle of Baylen, in Spain, the first serious reverses of Napoleon in the Peninsula. 1833-—Cornerstone of New York University laid. 1 1857—Battle of Maharajpur (Indian Mutiny). 11912—Herman Rosenthal, a confess- ed gambler, was assassinated in the streets of New York by men who escaped in an automobile. .
