But there is another and healthier wa
of considering this question—the optim
isble way. • Prom this viewpoint :the ap-
parent alacrity with which Rockefeller
Carnegie and other very rich persons ar
striving to rid themselves philanthropic
ally of much of their ft -called "taint&
money" is one of the most promising
if not really the most promising, of the
signs that indicate the marvelous eta
acal proves,' of the times. It is a sign
e, of the advent of the pidlanterepical mil
,seete-lennium. It is the glory of altruism—
' the apotheosis and realization of the so-
ciologist's dream.
To have given $140,000,000 for public
purposee--$40,000,000 of it in one yeaf'—
iike Andrew Cargenie; to have given
$51,000,000 for higher education, like
John D. Rockefeller—these are the
"deeds of peace and progress"which the
poets of the future are Likely to consider
more inspiring •themes for great epics
than the wars that Homer, Shakespeare
or Virgil drooled over and ideelized. At
prthent we are too close to Carnegie,
Reckefeller and their time to realize the
signific.ance of the magnificence of their
munificence, as an ornate orator might
put it. Other times may be trusted to
eto justice to these remarkable men. As
there was a Shakespeare to immortalize
the first altruist's gift of a garden to the
Roman public, so another genius of po-
etry. may be expected (to arise as the
glorifier of the two great philanthropists
of whose superb gifts to the public it
can be said with practical truth that
They are not for an age, but for all
time.
Despite the car -pings of agitators and
sensationalists the .world at large feels
very kindly to these two men of great
wealth and big benefactions. All the
people, in a general way, know Carnegie
ele and. Rookefeller. But how few really
grasp the fairy tale of their f•ortunes and
philanthropies in all its fullness It is
o. tale that dims the glory of Croesus and
extinguishes the charmed fire of Alad-
din's wonderful lamp.
Power and prestige, little less than
imperial, came as a matter of course, to
each of these men with the success of
.their vast industrial enterprises and the
enjoyment of mammoth income. There
caine also gigantic csontests with other
Industrial and financial magnates, some
of them longer established and rising
rapidly. Out of these titanic fights,
most of them won, grew hatreds as ac-
rid and lasting es any the world has
known. Thus, while these industrial
captains have been celelarated for the
friends they have made, they have not
been without enemies and bitter ones at
that. But the good that Carnegie and
Rockefeller do can not be "interred with
their bones." "13y their benefactions ye
ebail know thole—benefactions as in:- 1
perishable as anytbing mundane can be.
The story of Carnegie's gifts of free
public libraries to cities and towns in all
English speaking countries has often
been told. It needs: no repetition or am-
plification stye to say that the number
of the Carnegie libraries has now reachfl
-

tion of Cleveland is the first with which
the oil king connected himself. At that
time he was simply a groom's clerk, liv-
ing in a modest little house on Cedar
avenue, just around the corner.
This was before the call of gigantic
finance had reached bis ears; before his
fertile brain had conceived the idea that
the oil industry was beckoning hirn to
shape its marvellous future.
Having been superintendent of the
Sunday School for many years and deep-
ly interested in everything that pertain-
ed. to the welfare of the thumb and de-
nomination, Mr. Rockefeller never for-
got his first ecclesiastical home.
Sentiment has bound him to 'it more
strongly than to any of the more mag-
nificent churches with which he has since*
been allied.
Those who know him intimately—and
many persons in Cleveland do—are not
surprised at his ambitious plans for the
future of the Euclid Avenue church.
It must not be imagined that the
church is dependent upon the oil mag-
nate's bounty. A big church it has been
from its foundation, and a big church
it always will be. Surrounding condi-
tions, however, are such as to place
it peculiarly in line with the ideas of
growth and enterprise that he bail map-
ped out for it.
When built the present structure was
:mated upon the best part of Euclid
avenue, at that time, as now, amoug
the most beautiful residences of the
vorld.
The spread of commercialism gradually
encroached upon these preeinets. The
district now partakes more of a busi-
ess than of a residential nature. The
hutch has become a dosvntown institu-
ion, but it is large and prosperous still,
nd many of the best and wealthiest
amines of Cleveland are connected with

Even at that, a contribution of $10,- •

world, is not to bei rejected inadvisedly,

of the shrewdest detectives on earth are

The latest version of the Bible is one
just completed by Samuel Lloyd, of the
British Bible Society. For years lie has
worked upon a version of the New Tes-
tament in the modern tongue, and after
laborious comparisons with the ancient
Greek and Latin he has at last put for-
ward a New Testament in which the ob-
ocure phrases have been made clear and
words to which another meaning is now
assigned are given their new form.
As an instance of the manner in which
the work brie been done, the world "pub-
lican"' .rnay be taken. By common usage
a. "Publican" is now the keeper of a pub -
lie house, or, in other words, a saloon
keeper. In the Biblical sense a publican
was a collector, and the latter word is
now used. It is the Jurist radical chang-
ing of the text of the Scriptures that has
ever been made, but the version has the
approval of the clergy, who declare it to
be a decided aclVance over the modern-
ized form of the King Joliet version..
