Rockefeller has said, under the mellowing Influ ences of song and service in his home church In Cleveland, that he consid ers and believes that God has made him the custodian of great wealth. With a wealth of Illustration on every hand of how Rockefeller accu mulated the greatest fortune In the world. Rockefeller's estimate of God's responsibility toward the man kind w hlch he created Is evident The conception of the character of God, It should be remembered, is not by absolute standards, but by the stand ards of the race or Individual. The reader's attention is called to the following: Edgar Brown died August 7 at a hospital at Sault Ste. Marie. Mich. Kcv.-'j r.; r z:z'.:vi r tlir.t this man died renni'es.- anj w-as burled at the exere rf a few old friend. This Is a common occurrence, but widespread attention has been at tracted P the death of Edgar Brown because, as one correspondent says: "While Brown had no estate, he left behind him the memory of his kind ness In the days of his prosperity and the story of how John I). Rockefeller deprived him of the fortune he found and developed, and gained control of the property which made the United Sl ites Steel corporation possible." Brown's life story is vouched for by Dr. Jihn M. Goltra, who attended him during his last Illness. Accord ing to lr. Ooltra's story, as told by the Chicago Record-Herald corres pondent. Edgar Brown was horn In Warren. Pa, fit years ago. Assoclat ti.tc liim.-eif with C. C. Merrltt, the two tramped the great northern bnr- rens. and lorated what afterwards proved to be the richest Iron mine in the country. Brown was discouraged by capitalists, but he persevered until finally he Interested John D. Rocke- feller and borrowed from him n.. 5.o.,m, Klvng his mining claims as -curlty. The Record-Herald corres- pondent .-ays: '"Then Trov-n set hi.- mines out of the planned the Iiuluth about bringing, wilderness. He j & Iron Range i railroad, now the greatest ore carrier in the world, to carry his ore to a deep iter harbor. Rallg were laid and S'mmi development had gone far enough to show financiers whatf the property really was worth. Negotia tions were begun with James J.

"It was hero thut Brown made his fatal mistake. He never suspected treachery, and told of the deal to a man who was closely associated with Rockefeller. For what followed Hrown always put the blame directly on the shoulders of the oil magnate. Ho declared, over and over, that Rockefeller put the, screws on Hill and his associates so that they could not get the ready money to complete their bargain. At any rate tho deal fell through. Frown's notes to Rocke feller became due, the mortgage was foreclosed and the Immensely valua ble ore property fell Into the hands of the Standard Oil chief for a mere fraction of Its value. "Millions of dollars have been taken out of the mines since that time, ore worth millions more Is In sight, and no one can compute the value that full development will give the prop erty in the future. For years fleets of steamers carrying thousands of tons nt a load have been taking the ore away, yet the surface Is barely scratched. The loss of the fortune almost within his grasp proved too j much for Merrltt. He was broken- j hearted and within five weeks was i carried to his crave. Brown alwavs maintained that it was the oil king's trickery that killed him." NOW THEY QIARRKI. ABO IT IT. While some republican editorial writers are sneering at "the quantita tive theory" here we have the editor of Moody's Magazine and the editor of the Wall Street Journal actually quarreling good naturedly, of course as to the question, which of the two is the original "quantitative man. The editor of Moody's Magazine wrote: "If there is one thing more than another on which the editor of Moody's Magazine may fecllitate him self, it is the conversion of that able and thoroughly practical J financial publication, the Wall Street Journal to the theory that a superfluity of gold, Instead of making money cheap and the prices of bonds high, as many suppose, operates to cause higher in tereFt rates and lower prices for bonds." To this the editor of the Wall Street Journal retorts: "For the benefit of Moody's Maga zlne. the Wall Street Journal says: II has always accepted the quantitative theory of money. It has always be lieved that the great production of gold had a powerful Influence on pi-Ices, tending to advance the prices of commodities and stocks, and tend ing to depress the prices of bonds having fixed rates of Interest. It has frequently, during the past few year.' given expression to this belief and lias therefore devoted much space to tin gold production as one of the vitaJ fact.- r.f the financial situation. It discussed this subject from this point of view long before Moody's Magazine Has born. It is not. therefore, a 'convert.' " Cv.n a democrat be blamed If h'j become a bit dlzxv these days when he sees men who. In lJiMfi. sneered at democratic doctrine, hurry to plant themselves upon the Chicago plat form' Moody's Magazine claiming the creoil f c r the conversion of the Wall Street Journal to the blmetallsni foundation argument! And the Jour nal hotly retorting that it is not a convert but has "always accepted th-j quantitative theory of money!" Well! Well!! Well!'! Commoner. The real author of the quantitative theory of money was the first man with brains who was at the same tini-' I honest with himself and did not mls- take sophistry for reasoning, and who I sat himself down to look Into the re- 1 " " ..o I-roducti which could be bought with That Particular man might have II.,,..

AIU'I I DEACON COM-EY OX SPIRIT VA1.ISM. Archdeacon Colley ,of Stockton. England, has certainly succeeded i creating an amazing sensation at the Church of England congress. Some weeks ago the clerical dignitary gave grave notice that he Intended to bring the matter of psychic phenomena be fore the congress and insist that Spiritualism should be discussed as an article of faith. This program, however, the con gress refused to consider, nor would it listen to the recital of his Spirit ualistic experiences, which the arch deacon had prepared. The clergyman was not daunted, however, and dcliv eied his prohibited lecture on the out side of a crowded audience, which in cluded two bishops. It certainly was one of the most remarkable papers ever presented by an Episcopal minister. He was quite frank In his replies to subsequent questions put .to him by clergymen. One of these clergymen asked him what was the good of all these mysterious visitations from an other world of which he had given us so lengthy and hazy an account. "Can you help us." said the cler gyman, "to realize existence after death?" "Ve.7," replied the archdeacon, "I can. for that la the beginning and end or .spiritualism. Spiritualism Is not for those who are believers In the Christian faith, but for those who nit unbelievers, ami it proves to them that there is an after life. I consider nil inn cieigyinen ougut to take up Spiritualism as pan of their theolog leal studies, ami thev should treat It In a scientific manner. Spiritualism Is not for scoffers, for wondei mongers, or for those who want a 'tip' for the Derby. It Is a religion and a part of the great science of theology." "1 wanted the Church Congress to crnsn-'examlrte me on the reality of m.v experiences." continued the arch deacon, "for I am convinced that Spiritualism, as the scientific set-off against tho Sadduecism of material ism, is the ally and not the enemy of everything that is good and true In all religions. It brings added fac ulties to human nature, as any Bible reader or student of modern oriental life knows well. ''Spiritualism comes as a godsend to millions who are incapable of believ ing the Christian faith without its aid. It teaches that death Is tho gate ot life, hence tlu.t there It, continuous and Immediate and conscious being with no sleeping In the grave, for, as our beautiful burial service says, the souls of the faithful after they are delivered from the burden of the flesh are In Joy and felicity. But It is even more hopeful to us In that it brings us into communication with our de parted friends." LONfi SI IIMAKIM'. Tltll. The new submarine torpedo boat Lake, the largest ever constructed in this country, recently completed an open sea voyage rrom nuwpon e. Va., to Hr'dgeport, Conn., at an aver age speed of over seven knots. This performance is cpnsldered remarka ble owing to the fact that the Lake war unconvoyed, a feat never before performed in this country. After receiving her finishing touches at the yard of her builders, the Newport News Shipbuilding & Dry Pock company, the Lake began her long voyage on the afternoon of Mon day, June 25. When Cape Henry was reached the engine were topp . long enough to enable a communica tion to be sent to her owners. The en gines were then started again and never stopped until when off Barne- gat, It being necessary to slow down to avoid a large school of whales, who evidently mistook the submarine for one of their number. About 2 o'clock p. m. on Wednes day, tile ?7th, the Lake arrived safely at SaiulV Hook and anchored Inside. Ioter on the voyage was continued up New York harbor and through Hell tiivte under her own power, Into Long Island sound to Bridgeport, nt which place she arrived without a mishap of any description. The submarine marvel consists of a steel capsule or cigar-shaped form, within which Is placed all the propc ling machinery, air compressor-) crews quarters, etc., and which It surmounted by a wooden superstruc ture and deck, which gives the boal an appearance not unlike that of hte original Monitor, but, on a smaller scale. The propelling power on the surface Is supplied by gasoline en gines turning twin screws; while sub merged the screws are driven by elec tric motors from storage batteries of great capacity. Within the boat are comfoi table quarters for the crew of 10 persons. Including a galley in which the meals are cooked by means of electricity. Sufficient ulr may be stor-i ed in the air tanks to allow the boat to be submerged several days without causing distress to the crew. She is equipped with three torpedo tubes, which can be reloaded and fired several times without coming to the surface, the commanding officer In the meanwhile keeping his eye on his prey by means of a sighting Instru ment which projects above the sur face of the water, and even if discov ered, offers n target too small to be struck except by a chance shot. The boat Is equipped with hydro planes, or Mde rudders, which, when set at an angle by means of pneu matic power, cause the boat to descend on an even keel while going ahead thus actually possessing a feature which Jules Verne's imagination gave to the famous Nautilus. Popular Me chanics. THE BRIDE. Ho, windy gossips, In your ear! When morning threw the ensement wide The jilted sun, with eager face, Stole In and kissed the waking brldef And, while she blushed, a bobolink That all he sees in music tells. Rang out the tidings to the world With tinkling chimes of elfin bells. She rose and donned her rich attire. The yearning bridesmaids led her down, And she was wedded in the church Before the Jostling, gaping town. But think you that the stoled priest, With studied pomp and sacred rite. Hath wholly bound to one of earth This bride of the adoring light? , The grace of the elusive streams Is In that form his vows would bind. fur slie lias roumed the summer world A free-foot follower of the wind. And though you choired the hus hapd's joy And mellow chimes have pulsed it wide. The birds are singing to the flowers That she was trothed another's bride. yrKK.VH HEALTH KI LL'S.
