ISIL, will have a special significance. By those of a later generation no less is tribute due to the memory of a man who played a part as editor, anti-slavery leader and ardent supporter of the I'nion that made him one of the leading- characters of his country. The moral force and energy that Greeley brought to his work gave him a personal influence that to-day Is difficult to appre ciate under changed conditions. The blows he struck for freedom when the fight against human slavery was a doubtful cause and most needed recruits were the expression of convictions that ignored pop ular ill will and personal danger. He was a dangerous combatant whose conscience told him that he was right regardless of majorities and minorities, and time and events have fully Justified the enlightened doctrines that he preached with unsparing vehemence. Merely as the man who brought about the nomination of Lincoln, Or— ley would deserve a fitting monument. In journalism. in politics and In nubile life he exercised extraordinary power, and In the main that power was the result of moral ideals that can never die. It is wet! that steps should r*» taken at once to bring about a fitting observance of the centennial of his birth. OBITUARY. v THE REV. DR. A. R. MACOUBREY. The Rev.

James Ue Wolf Perry, jr., rector of St. Paul's Churcn, New Haven, was chosen Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Rhode Island, to suc ceed the late Right Rev. Dr. "William N MoViokar. at the special convention of the diocese to-day. Seven ballots were neces sary to secure the required clerical major ity, although the majority of th- laity was ■>' tn;ned for tiie ,yew, y ew Haven candidate on tha fourth ba:;ot. The vote on the deciding baiiot was: The Rev. James De Wolf Perry, jr.. clergy. 3»v laity, 106: the Rev. Dr. George M^lfllan Fiske, rector of St. Ste phen'? Church, of this city, clergy, 19; laity. 30. The election of Mr. Perry was a com plete surprise. He had not been prom inently mentioned as a candidate. Wbaa the convention began balloting early in the afternoon about twenty names were sub mitted. The first ballot taken showed that Dr. FiPke, the Rev. Dr. I>lghton Parks, rector of St. Bartholomew's Church. New York, and" Bishop Charles H. Brent, of the Philippines, were the leading candidates. Bishop Brenfs name was then withdrawn by Rath bone Gardner, who paid that the Ki!«h<<T' felt that his sphere of work was in the missionary field. Other candidates in the ordfr of their vote wer^- : The Rev. Dr. Alexander Mann, re.-tor of Trinity ChOMfc.

Aucock. rector nf \r Saint*, this elty. On the second ballot Rathbone Gardner introduced the name of Mr. Parry, who re reivd a total of nine votes. On the next ballot he received ninety-nine, and on the fourth received the majority from the laity. Many of the, clergy, however, were still strong for Dr. Fiske, and thre«» more bal lots were taken before the clerical majority was obtained. Mr. P«rry i* r»gard«»d a? a low L'lllirdl man. while Dr. FisUe. Is of the high church party, «nd it seemed at one time that there would be a deadlock between the clergy and laity over this question, as many of the former favored Dr. Flske and the lat ter early united on Mr. Perry.

'A million for tuberculosis" is the slo gan of the 1910 Red C'icsa Christmas stamp campaign. The familiar little peals that are seen on letters at Christmas time have proved such a success that this year about a hundred millions of them will probably be printed Already twenty-five million have been struck off and will soon be placed on sale. The Red Cross lia* a new scheme this rear for the sale of the seals. It will sell them to local associations, and these associations will receive S7 l . per rent of TH K N bTW A M E R I ' A X RED C ROSS STAMPS. the profits, the other 12>, 2 per rent going to pay the expenses of getting them out. What is loft will be divided equally between the Red Cross and the National Associa tion for the Study and Prevention of Tu berculosis. The stamps, which are of an attractive design this year, may be placed on the backs as well as the fronts of letters. The reason that the Red Cross desires to have them known as "seals" is that last year the dead letter office of the Postofflce was packed with missives bearing only the Red Cross stamps. Many ignorant persons and some not ro ignorant believed that the seals prepaid postage. About forty millions of them were printed last year, and the sum realized amounted to about $250,000. Stamps of this character were used in Brooklyn and Boston as far back as 1562 In connection with Civil War bazaars and fairs. They disappeared tor a time, but Jacob RiL«. finding them used in Norway in a tuberculosis campaign, wrote an ar ticle about them which induced the Dela ware State Asssociation to adopt them in 1907. About $3,000 was raised in three weeka in Delaware and Eastern Pe.nnsylvania. They were first used nationally in 1008 and $135,000 was raised by the R»d Cross.

SAYS: "WAKE UP, AMERICA" Sir William Treloar Urges Need of Hospital for Children. Blr William Treloar. once Lord Mayor of London and now the head of the Alton Home for Cripples, Is disappointed In the work that New York is doing for the care of children afflicted with tuberculosis of the bone. "I came to New York hoping to get some ideas," he said yesterday, "but I find that you are wofully behind tn this matter. I know that this is the land of big things. and I am surprised. It is a national mat ter. I think I should do as Mr. Kooseveit did when he made his Guildhall speech. He gave us some advice on the spur of the moment, and I think I should say. as England* King is doing to his country. Wake up. America:' I tninX you should have a home here like the one we have at Alton. We have 260 children there, and we have cured one hundred. The greatest settlement for this work is. of course., Berck-sur-Mer. in France. About 10,000 children are being cared for there in va rious hospitals. They are all suffering from this particular disease — tuberculosis of the bone." Sir William visited the Sea Breeze Hos pital, the only me of its kind in this coun try, yesterday morning with R. Fulton <•« ting. Dr. John Winter Brennan. president of Bellevue and Allied Hospitals; Dr. F. A. Albee. the surgeon tn charge, and Fred erick D.

He was very much pleased with 1 the work being done there, but sur prised to find the hospital on so small a scale. He recommended a bazaar such as was held in London to raise money for the Alton Home. This three-day fair, which was opened the first day by Queen Alex andra, the second day by Ambassador V hitelaw Reid and the third day by Am bassador Paul I'ambon, waa worth S6u.i«o to the home. WHITE'S FLIGHTS THRILL Aviator Finishes His Exhibition by Taking- Up Woman. Garden City. I,ong Island. Sect. 21 (Spe- Claude Orahame- White grave a large crowd of spectators here last night their first view of what a real birdman was by making a number of circuits of the field at such a height that the flights could bare ly be followed. Then, to make his exhibi tion all the more attractive, he took Miss Pauline Chase up with him to a height of 150 feet and made two circuits of the field. The, wind was blowing very hard when Mr. Graham*- first appeared, but after twenty minutes' wait the aviator said he was ready, and jumped Into his seat. When he attained a height of 160 feet Grahame- White circled th<» field in two minutes, the distance being a little over a mil*. He th»n fl»w off toward Meadow Brook, the Motor Parkway and on over the villages of Hicksvill" and Westbury. On his return he sped over the jfineoia fair grounds, to the amazement of th» fifteen thousand per sons who were there watching the races. Gralmme- White circled the field twice be fore he came. down. The feat was exceptionally clever, inas much as the biplane, in which he flew wa3 new to him, being the one used by Clifford B. Harmon In Boston. The biplane is of the Farnam type, constructed in three sec tions, so as to be readily taken apart. After his first landing Grahame- White helped Miss Chase to a seat in the rear of the machine. The young woman was) all pmile<> and anticipation, showing not the slightest fear at the thought of going up. Aiter the field had been circled twice and the machine landed. Miss Chase said she was tickled to death with her flight and would dearly love to fly in the machine alone. Mr Grahame- White suited that he had so much business on band that, he fpar«*d he could not mak» another flight before his re turn to Kngland in two weeks, but that he would try to do so. He was greatly pleased with the aviation field h<»re and tii«* «=piendid straightaway start the bejrinner ha?. Regarding the coming international aviation meet Mr. Grahame- "White said it was very doubtful that he would take part. Tod Shrtver. in a Dietz biplane, started to make a flight which he hoped would break the record for endurance, but he smashed a strut in ascending and aban doned his flight.

Advices received at the tournament head qiiarters from its foreign representatives state that at Paris it is confidently pre dicted that either one of the high powered Blerlot monoplanes driven by Leon Mo rane and Georges Chavez, holder of the record for altitude, 8.406 feet, will succeed in riding two miles in the air daring the approaching meet. But these French "cracks ' will not have the contest to themselves. It is known that the Wrights are preparing to enter the Huts with a new machine providing a very higli degree of aur porting efficiency in the tr.in air at great aJtitudes. This will be supplemented by a new motor of the high est power yet to be designed by the fa mous brothers. The combination of a machine specially constructed by the Wrights and personally conducted by Waiter Brookins is some thins for even the Frenchman to consider. SIR HIRAM MAXIM RETIRES Will Not Continue His Experiments with Aerial Machinery. London. Sept. 3-— Sir Hiram Maxim, after having devoted years to the construction of a biplane which has been described as "the Pullman of the air." announced to day that he had abandoned his experiments with aerial machinery, owing both to his advanced age and to the difficulty of com peting successfully with French inventors and builders. Sir Hiram is seventy years old. He has long shown an interest ln flying and has encuuraged every effort in that direction. His own model was to have been exhibited soon and great hopes of Ita success bad been entertained. A novel feature was the employment of three screws designed to ltssen the waste ln power unavoidable ln the French aeroplanes of the small single screw type. AIRSHIPS AT BRIEG FOGBOCNO Brifeg.

Shubert were tn doubt earlier in the seajpn aa to what they should call Sam Bernard's new piay. So they adver tised for a name. One of the suggestions resetved waa "He Came From Milwaukee." This waa prmnpt !y seized upon, and the musical offspring of six fathers wu christened forthwith. The child was introduced at the Casino Theatre on Wednesday night and the audi ence didn't seem to care where h» came from or whither he went. He is a frail creature and la not likely to last long if his sponsors try to fead him on a> Broad way diet. Sam Bernard is funny ln a way. but he is funny in the same old way: that's trouble. Hi» selzer utterance grows tire some and his rough and tumble tactics cease to please. Fortunately he has with him Martin Brown. George Anderson. "WT nona "Winter.

So he persuades Herman yon Schellenvein (Sam Bernard) to act as the duke pro tern. The real duke Incognito marries Constance Harvey— whom he love* —to save her from an alliance with the man from Milwaukee whom the designing Mrs. Harvey thinks is the real Duke of Zurach. Yon S hellenvpin gets into all sorts of difficulties while impersonating his royal friend, from which he is finally re lieved just as he is about to be crowned. In the mean time Constance has learned to love the man whom she married, and the facts that be turns out to be the duke after all of courv? pleases mama and does not detract from daughter's happiness.
