Washington, D. C., March 27.—At
the opening of the session of the house
today Richardson of Tennessee, fhe
minority leader, offered, as a matter1
o‘f pritiiege, a resolution for the ap-
pointment of a c-ommittee of five to
investigate charges said to have been
made by Dr. Walter Christmas, semi-
official representative of the govern-
ment of Denmark, in a secret report to
his government, in which it was made
to appear he was to receive $5(10,000
of the purchase money for the sale of
the Danish West Indies for bribing
n'ewspapiu’s and member's of congress.
The resolution- was very long and de-
tailed. Its reading created great ex-
citement on both sides of the house.
Republican leiulers hurried!}’ con-
sulted during the reading of the reso-
lution and w'her. the reading had been
concluded Payne, the majority leader,
made a point of order that the matter
presented was i ot privileged. The
basis of the resolution, Payne said,
'contemptuously, was based upon an
alleged secret report to the Danish
2'ev ernm ent.
Instantly Richardson m'et this With
the statement that he had a copy of
the secret report to the Danish gov-
ernment.
“On my honor as a member of this
house,” said he, “I have now on my
desk what purports and wlint I be-
lieve to be that secret, confidential re-
port. Assuming full responsibility of
my words, I believe I have unmistak-
able evidence this report was made to
the Danish government by a guasi, if
not the real agent of that govern-
ment.”
The speaker ruled the question one
of privilege.
The Richardson resolution was adopted
unanimously.

Faust symbolizes the Protestant theol-
ogy of the Reformation vs. the intellect-
ual movement of the Ranaissance. Faust
and 'Luther are the two striking different
aspects of the same Reformation. One is
a despiser of the Bible—the other a lover
of the Bible. When at Rome one Is cynic-
ally amused, the other shocked by license;
one is friendly disposed, the other shies
an inkstand at the devil; one is a reckless
skeptic, the other a devout believer. But
it was the puppet legend that kept interest
alive. It buzzed in Goethe’s ear, for he,
too, like the Faust of the legend, had made
all kinds of experiments in life and had
always come back more unsatisfied and
more tormented. Goethe had studied law,
logic, philosophy and languages, but not
being able to find, a standard he became
passimistic. Society opposed him and he
descended to low company. Then came
the kirn'' - -icetic fire. He saw a re-
semblance between Faust and himself. He,
too, would create a Faust—not a bad
Faust, but a good Faust striving to get at
the truth—a Faust who falls not from
lust but from tremendous passion for
truth. Knowledge did not satisfy Goethe—
he wanted something higher, and that
was Life.
I Prof. Clark’s Magnificent Portrayal. of
Goethe and the Faust Legend.
Last evening in the assembly hall of the
Ball High school Prof. L. II. Clark of the
University of Chicago gave to the Gal-
veston public a most interestingxand edi-
fying lecture on Goethe and the Faust
legend. Tfiat Goethe is one. of the most
glorious names of Germany all knew, also
that Faust is one of the great master-
pieces of literature; but what many did
not know was the Faust legend, and it
is this as well as the life of Goethe, said
Prof. Clark, that one should be conversant
with in order to more fully understand
and appreciate th© great drama. “No-
body,’’ continued he, “who hadn’t been
through the life that Goethe had been
through could have written Faust. Goethe
had not the pedentry of Wagner. It rep-
resents the living issues of the soul. His
(Goethe’s) conception of Faust was taken
from the Faust legend, and the puppet
play exhibited in Frankfort and other
cities of Germany. It was an outgrowth
of the earlier popular drama, but to un-
derstand it one must go back to the origin
of the Faust legend.
There was such a man as Faust in the
middle of the 16th century. He passed
himself as a magician, and in a credulous
age when all believed in magic, people
thought him versed in necromancy. Of
his death nothing certain is known. It
was very mysterious, and was depicted
with great horror of circumstances as a
warning against commerce with Satan;
for it was said the devil had got him.
This myth once started, Faust became a
new representation—a magician who sold
irfmself for pleasure to the devil. Floating
stories gathered themselves to the legend
and the whole was finally written up as a
reality. Faust was a depraved soul, choos-
ing deliberately bad from good, it is the
terrible fate of a bad man who is led
through magic to join with the devil.
said Prof. Clark, “is the

Prof. Clark dwells forcibly upon the
pure spiritual life of Goethe, and in Faust
he maintained -that Goethe would never
have reached such magnificent heights if
he hadn’t gone down to the very depths.
Better fall and rise again than not get at
the truth. Search for truth has God’s
blessing upon it and is not as is supposed
a coalition with the devil. Search for
truth and not truth itself measures man’s
spiritual stature. It is the solution of the
problem of human life. Prof. Clark closed
with this peroration. He charmed his
hearers as he talked and claimed their
close attention from start to finish. Hte
magnificent command of language give all
his imagery and word colors—life,
brought vividly before the audience the
legend and prepared them for the drama
which is to follow, with its beautiful
thetic; affecting
wrought passion.
This and tomorrow evenings Prof. Clark
will give the first and second parts of
Faust, and those who are seeking for a
just crticism on art, a delightful portrayal
of Faust, a beautiful rendition of the
poem, and above all intellectual refresh-
ment, should not fail to hear the Faust
series. XXX
