They are arriving boarding houses and keeping the hirers of motor car§ busy with orders. From the continent there is almost as much travel as there is from America. The two streams meet just now. The wealthy half-Euronean-American who has been spending the winter on the shores of the Mediterranean is homeward bound. The often wealthier American who has no time for idling in the winter is ushing over te take a couple of weeks r a month of rest and recreation in England. With all classes of visiting Americans the theatre is the passion of the mo- ment. Not an evening is allowed to sass without a visit to one of the popu- ar plays now running in London. They grumble a good deal at the prices asked for the stalls. But they will take no ther seats than the stalls, liking to be in a position in which they get a view of the house, as well as of the stage. Many of the men complain, too, at the custom which compels them to wear evening dress. They prefer for them- selves and their wives the simpler habit of New York or Paris. Many of the wealthier visitors are bringing their motor cars with them. Many millionaires, by the way, now keep a car or two on this side of the Atlantic all the year round. Whether wealthy or not, the visiting American does not feel that he has seen England unless he has taken a run down to Shakespeare's country or into Devonshire mobile. "The automobile," said Mr. Figg, the London manager of the American Ex- press Company, in whose Haymarket rendezvous Americans foregather, "is helping to keep Americans in this coun- try. Where formerly they would stay a day or two in on and then go at once to Paris, they are now spending the best part of their holiday in touring England by car. We encourage them to lo it, planning tours for them by auto- mobile and putting them in the way of seeing the most beautiful and interesting parts of this country without trouble." Staying at London hotels at the mo- ment are many Americans whose names are household words on the other side Judge Morrow, of California, who is staying at the Savoy, has been making a holiday study of the system in English courts, and admires the greater rapidity of English-methods, especially in crim- inal procedure. Senator Schumann, of Boston, is another distinguished Ameri- can who is stopping at the Savoy. KAISER CHECKMATED. Political Situation in Europe Sarcastically Outlined. Berlin, May 18--One of the most amusing and suggestive comments in the German press on the present alleged rivalry between Great Britain and Ger- many is the following passage, taken from the Rhenish Westphalian Gazette, a leading German journal of aggressive- ly patriotic views: "Two players are sitting opposite to one another engaged in a stubborn con- test on the European chessboard. One of them (Edward VII) is a cool, calen- lating and quiet player, while the other (William 11) is young, full of vivacity, the reverse of calculating, rich in ideas and fantastic imagination "There is no longer any doubt which of these players will gain the victory so long as the contest is confined to the diplomatic chessboard. © William II is already checkmated. "None of all those princes and kings whom he visited in the earlier years of his reign, and whose friendship he gain- ed has remained true to him, except the aged Emperor Francis Joseph and the proprietor of the greatest gambling hell m the world (the reigning prince of Monaco). All the others have quitted their seats at the German emperor's ban queting table, some noisily and others noiselessly, because, so to speak, the po litical cuisine offered to them in Berlin no longer suited their tastes "All the marks of friendship, all the words of praise, all the presents, all the orders and decorations which the Ger- man emperor has dealt out so lavishly to foreigners, and even his own passion ate prayers, have been fruitless, and William I1° now remains in isolated eminence."

Vienna; May 18--The great number of suicides which are taking place in Vienna has caused the Neue Freie Presse to suggest that General Booth should es- tablish in Vienna one of the Salvation Army anti-suicide bureaus. . Yesterday a young shoemaker named Amboschitz and his sweetheart poisoned themselves because Amboschitz's rela- tives had forced him to betroth himself another girl who had money. art student named Grdmer shot himself in the Vienna city park the day before his wedding because he saw no prospect of being able to support. his wife. A jealous baker named Soltich, of Trieste, threw his sweetheart out of a high window and then jumped after her, both being killed and an unfortunate passerby severely injured. Berlin, 18~Professor Delbrueck, the successor of Ranke and Treitschke in the chair of history in the University of Berlin, contributes a' remarkable ar- ticle to the Preussische Jahrbuecher, entitled "Disarmanient and Germany and England." fessor Delbrueck says that there can be no doubt that the British pro- posals, as to the arrest of armaments, at The Hague conference will fail, even though it resulis in Germany being re- garded as the holder of barbaric and retrograde ideas. He believes that the first result of the discussion of the ques- tion would be an increase of tension between the two powers rather than an rapprochement, an increase of the dan- ger of war rather than its diminution. The cardinal mistake of those who ad- vocate the arrest of armaments is, he says, that they believe their ideas, if realized, will strengthen the cause of peace. The very opposite will be the case. He draws the conclusion that there can be no greater safeguard of peace than the "greatness and intensity" of existing armaments. He does not be- lieve that the cost of armaments presses with greater weight on modern Germany than it did thirty or forty years ago. Turning to differences between Ger- many and England, he rejects with scorn the assertion that England's alleged hos- tility is due to envy at the success of Germany in trade. The British people, be actuated by such paltry motives. The secret of their mistrust and hostility is solely and alone in the increase of the German fleet, and this for the simple reason that the existence of the British empire depends on the predominant posi- tion of the British fleet Professor Delbrueck asks the question whether Germany, in order to appease or whether there is not" some other means which, if adopted, would quiet British-susceptibilities. --Hé-comes to-the conclusion that Germany cannot cease to build ships, but he thinks that British nervousness might vanish if the British tion, and to so increase their land forces that they could view with equanimity the maritime growth of their rivals SERVANTS MUST GO. * «..

Germany Has Spies ' in the Bel- . gian Army. Brussels, May 18 ~The arrest of four ex-non-commissioned officers of the Bel- gian army, who are chan with es- pionage on behalf of ny, was brought about in a curious way. An advertisement appeared in a Brus- sels newspaper of April 16 for an intelli- gent man, a non-commissioned officer preferred, who would be well re- munerated for certain services. A non-commissioned officer who an- swered the advertisement was asked to keep an appointment the following day. He was met by a stranger, who inform- ed him that the present difficult situation in Morocco might result in war between France and Germany, and that Germany wished certain information regarding the numerous forts of the Meuse, espe- cially Namur, Malonne and Liege. The non-commissioned officer refused indignantly. Several days later the sol- dier encountered the man in the street and gave him into custody. He proved to be an ex-non-commissioned officer. and his arrest was followed by that of three men who were working with him. The quartette claim that they were employed by a private detective agency 'to work against France, and not Bel- gigm. Old Coronation. Edward Peronnet was the author of the stirring hymn, "All Hail the Power of Jésus' Name," which appeared an- onymously in eight stanzas in the "Gospel Magazine" in 1780. Dr. Rip- pon introduced it into his selections, changing it to its present form in 1787. e son of a minister, and he and his brother became min- isters, in connection with the Wesleys, about 1746. Wesley afterwards fell out with him,>and through the latter's anti- pathy Peronnet"s hymn was long de- nied a place in the Methodist hymn- book. Peronnet became a dissenting minister at Canterbury, and died there in 1792, It is strange that this should have been his only great hymn. It has shared with Bishop Ken's doxology the spontaneous approval of all Christian ' hearts. "All Hail the Power" was \ first set to the tune known as "Mills' Lane," composed by an intimate friend, | Mr. Shrubsole, and it is so sung in { England. In 1703 it was set to martial | music, "Coronation," composed for it by Oliver Holden of Charlestown, , Mass, a carpenter by trade, but a » musician by choice, Humble Saints. We should realize that saintship did not stop with apostolic times, but that ere are present-day saints. This we are liable to forget because of wrong i notions. - Pople think that a saint is j one always on his knees praying, and | emaciated like those depicted on church windows. When a man is urged to give up a bad habit or perform some duty he sometimes says, not without a little satisfaction: "I make no profes sion. I'm a man of the world and not a saint." Evidently he is ignorant of the meaning of the last word. A saint is not a perfect person nor one who One Kitchen For Whole Group of keeps aloof from the business and pleasures of life. He is simply one who resists evil and does his best. When our Lord said of the woman "She hath done what she could," He described a saint for all time. And the great question at the last day will not be "Have you done what is per fectly right?" but, making allowance for the temptations and other difficul- | ties of life, "Have you done what you could; have you done your best?"

The Christian Church was built upon a tomb believed to be empty It was more than a clever retort which Talleyrand made to the benevolent rationalist who lamented thé failure of his philanthropic propaganda. "What was he to do?" he asked. And the witty ex-bishop politely condoled with him, feared it was a difficult task to found a new religion, more difficult than could be imagined, so difficult that he hardly knew what to advise!
