The story ig told by Bishop Anderson, of Cincinnati, the facts coming direct from a cabinet member. It was at the time when the United States was on the brink of war, when serious conditions, fraught with the direst possible results, hung over the nation, that the president manifested nig extreme humility, his belief in a Supreme Being, his wonderful faith. Arriving ‘at ~the executive offices, where all cabinet meetings are now held, the president met his official family. . His face wore a drawn and haggard expression. His had been a night. of worry. - Facing the cabinet members, he said: “I don't know whether you men believe in prayer or not. I do. Let us pray, and ask the help of God.” Immediately, follow- ing his example, the dignified states- men fell upon their knees, bowed their heads in silence, and uttered a prayer with the chief executive. This done, they sat at their appointed places and the business at hand was finished. The clouds have cleared away and the president’s belief prayer justified. With this insight into the character of Woodrow Wilson, who is there to doubt, whether he be a believer or not, that the wonderful faith of the man has not guided him over the treacherous paths that have laid be- fore him. In what contrast does he show against some of the foreign rulers who, believing themselves greater than the Almighty, would never stoop so low as to entreat their Divine Maker for assistance, or if they ask for help do so more for diplomatic reasons than anything else. Woodrow Wilson for being a Christian, with a belief in prayer, is no less a man. In this day of indifference he has set a gcod example to his people who have all along hailed him as a leader in righteousness, in honesty, in steadfast- ness of purpose, and who must now look to him as the nearest approach tc an apostle of peace on earth. It takes strength to pray. And it makes one stronger for having prayed. Woodrow Wilson by his action may have opened the eyes of many ‘who have long ago lost faith in prayer and, if he has done so, the good he will accomplish is immeasurable. In this day and generation when churches are decrying the lack of in- terest in religion, when a materialistic movement has spread itself over the face of the globe, it is good to see one in a high office who admits his human frailities, who railizes that all earthly power, no matter how great, is only transient. The natien, following the example set by the president, should kneel today in meditation and pray with him that the United States will in inot be drawn into the world conflict, that while butchery and barbarity are destroying the flower garden of Europe, America will ever remain the abode of peace and good will to men. NEW BRITAIN'S GRAND OLD MAN, It seldom falls to any man in this age than he span the life allatted by the psalmist,—three score years and ten. Yet New Britain boasts oft one to whom this occurred long ago. Professor David N. Camp, honored and revered among men, has seen the best part of a century pass before his gaze, has crossed the threshold of the nineties, and tomorrow Wil celebrate the ninety-fifth anniversary of his birth. He has seen the entire ga- mut of human emotions, has wit- nessed the most marvelous trans- formation that ever befell the earth; has seen nations disappear, cities spring up, people die out. He ' has tasted of the §weets of lite, has known his share of the sorraws. And, best of all, he has had the great satis- faction of having a hand in the up- build:ag. He first saw the city of New Britain in its swaddling clothes, when it lay on the hillside, a weak, struggling youngster, crying for suc- Through its iearly youth he watched it grow and guided .its fal- tering steps along the way. In its early manhood he lent his support and now, from his- pinnicle of age, he looks down upon a city in the full cor. /set by their predecessors the ates of America will never game position as the nations jpe now face, will never see e groping and struggling in y It will be strong enough to imptation, strong enough to any invading enemy, strong o always do the right. That, should be any nation’s ideal. JEFFICACY OF PRAYER. Indianapolis, where there is lenice of ministers of the gos- es a pretty tribute to the Ir of 'Woodrow Wilson, presi- he United States. It is to the at the president went on his a recent cabinet meeting and God to give him strength to the affairs of the nation in r of trial ana tribulation.- hig example. his cabinet him and, with bowed oked the Almighty to help bloom of robust growth, a healthy, fully developed city, whose very "activities from the cradle have been inherently influenced by him. And, in the measure of his years, he must know how his name is cher- ished by all those who tread .the streets he knew as paths in the mead- ows, how his name is on the lip of each and every boy and girl, man and woman, who recognize in him the pioneer, the builder, the seer, the sage and the philosopher, to whom New Britain owes so much. Professor Camp’s name has stamped indelibly, for all on New Britain. He is honored among men, cherished among women. By the example of his life he has spur- red on the youth of the city because he has shown the way in self-sac- rifice, in good habits, in clean living. To live to such a great age is not strong, been time, such a wonderful thing when the manner 'of living is considered, for, barring accident and disease, any r i man who followed the faotsteps of David N. Camp, who, adhered to the rigid rules of life as practiced by him, could at least hope to add a few years to a life that irregularity and pres- ent day frivolities must but shorten. In his relations to his feliow man, Professor Camp has always kindly, forébearing. In his business, public and pri- vate life he deviated from the great fundamental principle of life as it should be. On this, the eve of his ninety-fifth anniversary the Herald joins with the people of New Britain in wishing to him the greatest joys of life, continued health and prosperity, and more useful years in the community. May live throughout the nineties, over the century mark and into the ranks of their in been courteous, social, has never many he those who measure three figures. His stay among us has ever been a source of joy and in- vears spiration. FACTS AND FANCIES. Zeppelin bombs fell near the Bank of England in the recent raid.

Down in Philadelphia jitney buses are called “club cars,” not because they run all night,” but because tickets are sold in blocks and the fares are called dues. The tone of the jitney is going up.—Boston Journal. Such inventions as the proposed torpedo which can be controlled by wireless are interesting, but they should not delude the American peo- ple into thinking that we can do with- out an army and a navy.—Buffalo Express. { Here we are within less than a year from the time of holding the national convention and no one has yet de- manded that Colonel Roosevelt be the nominee of the Republican party. The Colonel’s come-back has evident- ly received a very decided setbaclk.— ‘Wilkesbarre Record. When the war started French sold- fers drew one cent a day; now that they're getting thinned out they draw five. By the time their num- bers are reduced enough to make the money go ‘round probably those that are left will be fighting for a dime a day. And if they should literally “fight to the last man,” think what the last man would get.—Binghamp- ton Press. It is idle to venture to predict that the new Allied operation in the west is more than a local operation. Tts maximum of success may have been attained. But at the close of a sum- mer hardly equaled in the history of any nation, after victories of endur- ing grandeur, Germany is now being attacked on all fronts, and her stu- pendous losses have brought her no nearer ultimate victory. The moral effect upon Germany of the new crisis can hardly be exaggerated. The Kaiser promised her victory and peace last October. Peace and the eccnquest of Russia were assured this autumn. But there {s no peace. This much French, British and Russian at- tacks made plain today inside as well a¢ outside Germany.—New York Tri- bune. There never was an ‘economic” reason justifving the putting of sugar on the free list, and the war has only emphasized the folly of that mistake. The government is making a tremen- dous effort to encourage the develop- ment of the dve industry in the United States, in order to lessen our dependence upon Germany for dyes, of trifling importance as compared to sugar. It is infinitely more important to develop a certain and great sugar industry in the United States, for sugar is far more essential to the na- tion’s welfare than are dyes, than it is that we should develop a dye indus- try, important as the latter is. For the government to throw awayv an 000,000 a year, at a time when re- venue Is sadly needed, by failure to repeal the present sugar-law would be an unpardonable piece of financial shortsightedness. Tt would justly bring down upon the head of all who advocate the continuance of the pres- ent tariff bill to sugar, and the throw- ing away of $50,000,000 or $60,000,- 000 of revenue, the condemnation of the country at large.—Baltimore Manufacturers’ Record. Eliminating Cur Parts, (Philadelphia Record.) “Good morning! Have you had your pancreas extracted?” may* be- come a regular form of greeting in the new era of surgery, which accord- ing to the discussion at the conven- tion of the state medical society, is about to be ushered in. It is remark- able how many parts of the human body the surgeons find to be worse than useless, in that they function only injuriously to the possessor. First it was the vermiform appendix, and now the gall bladder is condemned as a superfluity and a mere menace. Is is possible that there are fashiong in the interior anatomy of man as well as in his sartorial exterior? but dyes, important ag they are, are | income of from $50,000,000 to $60,- | WHAT OTHERS SAY Views on all sides of timely questions as discussed in ex- changes that come to the Herald Office. Music of the Future. (Bridgeport Farmer.) That eminent singer, Umberto Sor- rentino, believes that the music of the future will come from the South, and that it will be based upon the negro melodies. Since every guess about the future has its proof in time to come, no man’s opinion can be shown to be better than another's. The basis of this view seems to be that thelgreat musicians of the past frequently have written great music around the folk songs of their coun- tries. But music is an art of recent de- | velopment. The instruments are com- paratively new. Mechanical music is a thing of yesterday. Why did the composers depend so largely upon folk music? Because folk music was the basis of popular musical knowledge A music not in some part expressive of popular un- derstanding was bound to fail. But the people of tomorrow understand a broader musie. The folk music of tomorrow will be the most complex music that has yet been written. It is reasonable to suppose that future genius will build upon what has already been done, as past genius has. Perhaps Mr. Sorrentino, having ac- quired a difficult art, underestimated the valué of the phonograph and the mechanical piano in creating a pop- ular taste in musie. The Farmer ventures the hope, if not the opinion, that the great music of the future will not be founded up- on thé misery of peoples, nor upon the happiness which characterized the | more contented moments of the negro slave, but that it will be based upon the happiness of mankind, 1 ing a fuller and sweeter life than men have hitherto enjoyed. * will On Getting Together. (Waterbury Republican.) When there is a strike there “get-together” of employers and ploys Sometimes it is only a nose- pulling or head-smashing affair; sometimes it is a deep-delving probe into the two sides of the case, in which emplove and employer concen- trate their energies on specific prob- lems whic are suddenly thrust into their attention and whose exasperat- ing features tax the self-control of individusls to the limit. In the former situation the clash is a struggle usually of the same nature as a dog-fight,—one in which brute strength plays a strong part; in the latter, character cuts a figure and pa- tience often brings rich reward. It is out of the latter that the best results come and sometime it is in such a struggle that both sides will find a new light which leads to beginning of a new relationship making for bet- ter feeling all round and better re- sults generally. The pity of it is that it takes strife to bring about changes that would quickly follow if there were better opportunity for each side to get the other's point of view and the reasons for it. is a em- Getting Off Lightly. (Bridgeport Telegram.) Is it a good practise for.the state's attorney to extend clemency to a prisoner accused of a serious offense in exchange for a plea of “‘guilty?” It is true that the agreement on the part of the prisoner to _admit his guilt at the outset does away with a lot of delay and expense incident up- on a trial, but are the ends of jus- tice best met thereby? Must an in- nocent man on trial (and as men are frequently acquitted, we must assume that innocent men occasionally placed on trial) feel that he would better plead “guilty” and take Lis punishment, rather than risk trial and possible comviction, with a heavy attendant penalty? Does the simple act of pleading “guilty” on the part of a man who is guilty, Wwho is known to be so, and who cannot possibly evade the re- sponsibility for his guilt, entitle him t{o any clemency whatever Take the case of a man who re- cently, without provocation save an insane jealousy, deliberately shot a woman through the neck, while she was at the breakfast table in her own rcom. If the man who committed this wanton murderous attack was insane, he ought to finish his days in an insane asylum, for the safety of the state. If not insane, then he cer- tainly should answer for a crime of murderous intent, if not murderous effect. As a matter of fact, by plead- ing ‘“guilty” to ° ult with intent to kill” instead of “intent to murder,” { which was originally charged against i him, he has escaped with one year in prison, at the end of which time e will be free to return and finish up the job, should the fancy move him. It is reported that the man’s vic- tim has asked the state’s attorney what protection is to be afforded her at the expiration of this very short sentence. Under . the circumstances, the feeling on her part is a very nat- ural one. “Dogged Does It.” (Kansas City Times. Every boy ought to read the story of the rise of Sir Willlam van Horne from messenger boy to one of the greatest railway builders and pres dents in the world. His life motto was: ‘“‘Dogged does it.” Look in Webster’s Dictionary and you will see that “dogged” means “‘ob- stinately determined or persistent.” That was the quality that made William van Horne, boy, one of the great men of his day- When he was a very small boy, an orphan, poor and living on a farm in Illinois, he was deeply interested in geology. A neighbor boy had a copy of “Lyell’s Principles of Ge- ology.” The van Horne boy waated to borrow it, but the other boy would not lend it Youn William paid him the messenger | | up, and went to bed. $2 for the use of the book for six weeks. Then he brought some fools- cape paper and spent the nights of the latter part of November and all of December in his cold-garret. He copied the whole book, and almost freezing. He copied the whole book, and he made a pen and ink reproduc- tion, as well as he could, of every one of its thousand pictures. When he had finished the book he knew every word in it It was this passion to learn, thoroughness and ambition and ged determination and energy i made him successful, He gained an efficient knowledge of everything he | undertook to do, and it is related of him that when he went to build the Canadian Pacific railroad he} knew more about how to lay the track ‘than men who had been working at that and nothing else all their lives. Yet the laying of a railway track was only one of thousands of things that William van Horne had learned how to do, and to do thoroughly. That motto of his is a good for every boy to remember: does it.” this dog- ¢ that | thing “Dogged A Bullfrog Croak (From the Wall Street Journal.) It is an undeniable defect in demo cracy, in a country of unfettered press and free speech, that it is possible for a time, to substitute noise for public opinion. The real American public opinion is a matured second thought, and it is <enerally right. But there i a sort of clamor, which is not even popular, which is always wrong. That directed against the credit of $500,- 000,000 for the Allies comes under this head. It assumes that money for yar. We are not. financing American trade. Henry Walters, chairman of the Atlantic Coast line, seldom or never gives in- terviews for publican. but here is what he tells the Wall Street Jour- nal: “The Allies should be given a credit by this country of $1,000,000,000, or more if they require it, upon such terms as will make all sections of the country subscribe liberally to it, according to their means, and no sec- tions are more interested in the es- tablishment of this credit than the cotton and grain growing States, es- pecially the latter, which are likely to have serious competition from Ar- gentina and the Black Sea unless this credit be given promptly and whole- heartedly-” The allusion to Argentina and rthe Black sea supplies does justice to the acuteness of Mr., Walter’s vision. Our grain growers shipping now, with the help of the credit of the Allies, will enjoy all the advantages of the sup- pressed competition from the Black sea. If, however, the loan were re- fused or delayed, they would lose that advantage, and would find them- selves facing unwelcome competition in the event of the opening of the Dardanelles. The pro-German propagandists, ig- noring the fact that Germany has sold bonds here herself for direct war purposes, which the Allies have not, suggest methods of opposition which might me dangerous if they were not futile. One of them announcves that he has withdrawn his savings de- posits in gold, and locked that gold in a vault. He is a martyr indeed, | for he fines himself the interest on his savings to resent a = grievance which does not exist. As this country is getting more gold than it needs, this hyphenated pa- triot should be allowed the empty satisfaction of carrying some of the burden If there were really any great number of people like him they could, of course, seriously embarrass minor lines of our own credit, with- out doing any appreciahle damage to the Alliess But perhaps it will re- assure the visiting mission to learn what they must have suspected. This small faction makes up in noise what it lacks in numbers. The croak of the bullfrog might be terrifying, but only to one who had never seen the frog. we are lending We are Newspaper Errors, (Towa City Republican.) The capacity of some people for de- tecting errors in the newspapers is marvelous. Also it is singular how many unexpected meanings the peo- | ple can find- If the reporter writes that a man wore a coat of such and such a char- acter some one may call up and ask if the coat was all the man had on? To satisfy these literalists you must enumerate item by item the othor articles of attire or they will accuse | vyou ‘of making the victim appear half naked. The reader who digests his paper on the quiet in his home feels that he has shown great brilliancy if he | detects an error in grammar or cap- italization. It is one thing to find mistakes at your leisure in another man's work, quite another to turn out a high degree of accuracy and pre- cision in the haste of newspaper com- position. The banker makes blunders his figures, the lawyer draws up in- correct papers, and the b ess man submits erroneous bills, Such bluad- ers are known only to the few perscns whom they concern. The newpaper is like the acton on the stage, whose slightest slip is manifest to all and seems ridiculous. in The Bumper Law Crop. (Waterbury Democrat.) A Kansas man, asserting that over- production of laws is ruining the country, gives these illuminating e> amples of what he calls superfluous legislation in nis own state: First— Kansas, although a prohibition state, has a law prohibiting the eating of snakes Second—he once bet a!

ZACHARY TAYLOR RELICS, Recently Added to the White House Collection. (From the Washington Star.) The presidential chinaware gifte of Mrs. Walter Stauffer of Ner Orleans, | granddaughter of President Zachary Taylor and daughter of his only son, the late Col- Richard Taylor, have been placed in the cabinets of the presidential collection at the White House, following Mrs. Stauffer's call upon President Wilson as was also another gift which lier in the day from the family the late Capt. John Taylor Wood. President Taylor's last surviving child, Mrs. Retty Bliss Dandridge. who owing to the ill-health of her mother, was mistress of the executive m sion during her father's brief admin- istration, died some months ago at her home in Winchester, Va., Before the estate was settled Mrs. Abby G Baker, on behalf of the White House, went to Winchester to interest the heirs in the presidential collections The family united ' to make = which would be representative of :helr distinguished forbear, Gen. Tay- or. of Mrs. Stauffer, who is the possessor of a large number of Taylor relics, presented, in behalf of her branch of the family, a handsome pair of candlesticks which were used by her grandfather in the White House, She Iso gave a silver spur of curious Mexican workmanship which was given to Gen. Taylor during the Mex- ican war, and the handle of a walking stick that was presented during Pres- ident Taylor's administration. Mrs. Stauffer is visiting her daughter, Mrs. John A. Mclllhenney, and will he in the city for several days It will be recalled that Gen. Tay- lor's eldest daughter married Jeffer- son Davis, but that she only lived a short time after her marriage and dled childish. Mrs. Bliss-Dandridge, the president's youngest child, was also childless. The second daughter, Ann, married Col. Robert Crook Wood. Col. and Mrs. Wood were parents of several children, and it is the chil- dren of their son, the late Capt. John Taylor Wood, who yesterday sent a gift for their branch of the family also to the White House collection- It consists of a cutglass decanter of the colonial type and three wine glasses - which were used by Presi- dent Taylor in the White House and a memorial brooch- The brooch con- tains a lock of Gen. Taylor's hair which was clipped from his head just after his death, and the brooch was worn by Mrs. Taylor and later be- came the property of her daughter, Mrs. Bliss. Later the White House collection is to receive other interest- ing relics from the remaining branches of the family. A Mayflower Pocketbook. (Kennebec Journal.) A Times man strolling up Com- mercial street, Bath, noticed an old pocketbook in the window of the Ley- don tobacco store and near it a paper inscribed, “This pocketbook was brought from England in 1620.” Go- ing into the shop the newspaperman learned the history of the book. It was brought over in the Mayflower by a Capt. Wiliams, a direct ancestor of Mrs. Thomas Leydon, who was a Miss Rose Whitney, David K. Whit- ney, who formerly resided in West- port, Me., with the authenticated story of the antique heirloom. The orig- inal owner, the Puritan who came over in the Mayflower, landed on Plymouth Rock with the other Pil- grims and lived for a time with the colony there, but later on moved and settled on a tract of land in what is now Watertown, Mass. The pocket- book resembled closely in make th: modern card cases with two flaps fold- ed together, each flap containing a pocket for bills and valuable papers. It is neatly embossed and each flap bears the embossed inscription of “Providence,” rather an appropriat motto for a pocketbook The appes ance of the book, which is made of stout leather, handsewed, shows ob- viously its great age. The fact of her pedigree entitles Mrs. Leydon to be a member of the Soclety of the May- flower Descendants. Not Quarrelsome. (August Young's Magazine.)
