FREELAND, PA., APRIL 23, 1890.
The People and the Monroe Doctrine.
From the Philadelphia Record.
Wo still have discussions of the Mon
roedoctrine. It is a waste of intellectual
power. The disputants who wrangle
over certain words or phrases of Presi
dents Monroe and Cleveland seem to
have no notion of the dominant idea of
the American people, or of those ideas
which are but dimly shadowed forth in
presidential utterances. Those ideas
have existed in the germ in the days of
national weakness, and arc full blown
in these days of national strength. They
are the possession of every true Ameri
can.
'•The judgment of the whole people,"
savs the Westminster Review, "does not
wait for reasoning, but acts naturally
—habit being a second nature—in
virtue of ideas and principles which
have become a part of the. national con
sciousness. Generation after generation
the citizens have learned from child
hood that certain tilings are evidently
right, and others wrong beyond dispute.
Judgment in accordance rise of them
selves on the slightest occasion, while
to reverse them a deliberate and pro
longed effort of steady reasoning would
be required."
And the ideas and principles which
iiave become a part of the American
consciousness are that there shall be no
European interference with American
soil. European colonies will be respect
ed, their rights of boundary conceded:
but no encroachment will be tolerated.
This is the sentiment not only of the
1 nited States but of the Spanish Amer
can states as well. What vanity, what
child's play, therefore, are these disser
tations and criticisms upon the Monroe
doctrine and Mr. Cleveland's interpreta
tion of it! "No encroachment by any
European power upon the soil or inde
pendence of any American state, whether
in the Northern or Southern Hemis
phere, '* is blazed upon the. American
heart and the American brain.
"It is a primary prejudice of indi
vidual citizens antecedent to all ambi
tion as a nation." It is founded on
moral interests, rather then on material
interest—the moral interests of our
American system of commonwealths.
Whatever Euporean government shall
challenge it will he met "with the first
and spontaneous judgment of the whole
people:" and if the challenge shall be
persisted in, with the whole martial
array of a united and puissant nation.
Worse Than a Mother-in-Law.
The Detroit Free Press prints an ac
count of the singular acq ui si ton of a
stepmot her by a young man. The wom
an iu the case Is a pretty school
inn'ava, without brother or sister, but
■who ILUS developed a wonderful faculty
of taking care of herself. Among the
swains attracted by her many charms
•WHS 011 c particularly attentive. In fact,
he was a practical monopoly, and what
made the matter more embarrassing
to the woman in tlie case was that he
jiover gave any definite indications of
lis intentions. lie was as persistent
as the weather, and twice us steady.
but lie never intimated a desire to
Kvhlsper the magic words. In the enicr
'jrency the fair pedagogue went to the
young man's father and modestly
sought his advice. Tlie old gentleman
•was up in arms at once. No son of hi:
jcould play fast and loose or dilly-dally
.with a pretty orphan girl. He had a
.conference with the young man, who
(seriously resented interference with
ill is love a ITairs. There was a scene, and
(the youth was induced to change his
boarding place. The old gentleman is
<1 widower and became so interested in
,1 lie case that lie decided to marry again,
and the schoolma'am will be the young
puion's stepmother. In which capacity,
jf she knows her business, she can get
amply "hump" with the former trifler
with her affections.

NAVIGATING IN FOG.
It Is Ma<lo Possible by an lastminrnt
Culled the Kophone.
Possibly there is no greater terror
among the many met with ut pea than
a fog. The helplessness of our harbor
bouts and the clamor of the bells and
whistles during a heavy fog in New
York harbor give one some idea of this
nightmare of the ocean; but when a
fog closes down upon a vessel at sea
the most reckless captain proceeds
cautiously and anxiously.
The probability of collisions and
wrecks due to fogs has been accepted
as a sort of unavoidable evil, which
must become greater as the number
and speed of vessels increase. Bu'
the inventive genius of man could not
let such a condition of affu-irs continue
without attempting to do away with
it, and there has been perfected lately
a simple instrument, called the eo
phone, by which the direction from
which a sound proceeds can be deter
mined with absolute accuracy in *i fog
or darkness.
The simplest description of the in
strument is that, it consists of two bell
mouthed sound receivers, separated
by a central diaphragm. The sound
receivers are connected to the t wo ears,
and, when pointed directly at a source
of sound, the noise is the same in each
oar. When turned away the sound is
heard in only one ear.
On shipboard the sound catching and
dividing part of the instrument ex
tends above the top of the chart house.
Tff - *
V 1 I
TIIE EOPIIOMB.
The tubes are knight within the chart
house, and the instrument may be
turned from below to point in any de
sired direction. The eophone lias now
been perfected, there being many points
for which numerous experiments, last
ing over several years, have been re
quired, in order to determine the .besl
'orm,especially with the sounding tubes
and ear pieces. Various refinements,
sneli as microphones and devices adding
to the complication, but not improving
tle use, have been eliminated.
To illustrate the character of the
trials which have been made with the
eophone, one was placed on the light
house tender Lilae, and in a dense fog
a whistling buoy was picked up nta dis
tance of a mile and its direction indi-
cated correctly, although every effort
was made to confuse the observer by
change of course. Ordinarily there is
great difficulty in picking up a whis
tling buoy in a fog.
Another test, showing the merits of
the eophone. in a striking way, was
made by blindfolding the observer and
then chasing another vessel by sounds
of its whistle, the vessel pursued
loubling unci twisting in every possible
way. No difficulty whatever was found
'ii following the vessel under such cir
cumstances. Spar buoys con be picked
up from the echo of the liout's whistle.
A vessel running close to land would
et the echo from her own whistle in
(use there were hills or tall houses.
On dark nights the ripple of oars or
inc slight noise of a torpedo boat
would be accurately located by the
rophone, so that it is as important from
a military point of view as it is nee.es
;irv in ordinary navigation. The
s ophone is probably one of the greatest
inventions of the day, as it is destined
to become as much a part of a ship's
•quipnient as the compass. The larger
\essels will have two, and just as now
there are distinctive lights on shore
there will be distinctive whistles, so
that in a fog not only can vessels avoid
danger, but Ulo3' can determine their
locations and go safely into harbors.
Ferryboats will be enabled to go
siraight. across to their slips by know
ing their particular bell or signal at.
cither ond. The echo from an iceberg
is plainly apparent.
The eophono is tiic invention of Mr.
Frank de In Torre, a scientist, of Balti
more. lie has spent a number of years
'.n perfecting it and has been aided in
• he development by the advice and crit
icisms of some of the great est physicists
.! Kurope. The eophone can be placed
upon any vessel without alteration in
t lie arrangement of the ordinary chart
house, it is not expensive; it adds prac
tically nothing to the weight and it
cannot g*t out of order, and as its effi
ciency has been demonstrated by actual
trials it is sure to be universally adopt
ed for use on board ship and at all
lighthouse signal stations and ferry
slips.—N. V. Herald.
The Speed of the l'igeon.
Experiments made with carrier
pigeon.? in connection with various Eu
ropean armies show that the sjieed of
the carrier in calm weather and for a
short distance is about J. 210 yards a
minute. With a very strong wind in
the direction of the flight a bird has
reached 1,980 yards a minute.

WHEN THE MONK DIED.
Hitvs Observed When Death Catered a
Monastery and Claimed a Victim.
In the "Durham Kites" we read liow
before the high altar were "three mar
velous fa ire silver basons hung in
chninesof silver;" these contained great
wax candles, "which did burnc contin
ually both day and night, in token that
the house was always watchingc to
God." Many and various are the es
timates which men make us to the cfli
cacy of prayer in changing or modi
fying (loci's purposes toward men; fciv
will, however, be found to deny t-lic
moral beauty of this conception, which
was the common heritage of all the
monastic orders. The ideal of every
monastery was the ideal typified by
the Durham ever-burning lights. "The
house was always watcliinge to Mod."
The well-known collects and prayers en
shrined in the solemn liturgy of the
Mhurcli of England are in large meas
ure the prayers and collects prav; d and
sung for so many centuries, by day and
by night, in the 1,000 abbeys and chap
els of the monks; they were thus for
ever interceding "for all sorts and con
ditions of men."
lint, besides the perpetual prayer:;
for others, a peculiar spiritual fellow
ship existed between the "religious"
of the same order, and indeed was often
extended to those of other orders. Mr.
Hunt ("An Account of the Priory of
St. Peter and St. Paul at Path") gives
us a remarkable illustration of this
fellowship in the bond of prayer made
between the priory of Path and six
other Benedictine convents, as fur back
as A. 1). 1077, in which the parties
agreed to pray for one another and the ir
brethren, and to be loyal to the king
and queen with one heart and one soul.
"It will be observed," adds Mr, Hunt,
"that two of the abbots were of the con
quering race, and their union with
their English brethren is pleasant to
contemplate,"
When a monk died a messenger was
dispatched to all the religious commu
nities from which prayers were due.
and indeed to many others, with the
mortuary roll, having at the head an'
announcement of the death and a short
account of the deceased. Each commu
nity acknowledged the receipt of the
ioil by writing upon it. a promise of
prayer for the soul of the deported,
and, as a rule, a request for similar
prayers,for their deceased brethren and
benefactors was added. The benefits
of these prayers seem to have been
pranted to a large number of benefac
tors and others. Nor was this priv
ilege by any means confined to the
great and wealthy; a very small, even
a normal payment, such as a pound of
wax, seems to have qualified a man or
woman to receive it, if otherwise fit
ting, into the number of "frat res" or
4 sororcs" of the convent. Those so ad
mitted knew that the Divine sacrifice
was daily offered for them in the
church of the monastery, and that
prayer w as continually made for them
while they lived, and that after death
the welfare of their souls would be the
subject of special intercession.—Quar
terly Review.
