The commlsslonere of New York and Vermont who conducted the Champlain tercentenary celebration. In the summer of 1900 have united to erect a permanent memorial to Champlain at Crown Point, on Lake Champlain, and have adopted a de sign that combines this object with a utilitarian purpose. In the form of a me morial lighthouse. Many European light houses have been given a more or less architectural character Internationally, some, like Pmeaton's Eddystone, are mon umental as a result of a strict adaption to conditions, and some, suoh as the Eddy' stone, have become memorials to their builders; but none has been erected as a memorial to any particular event or per son. The acta of New York and Vermont which created the commissions for the celebration provided that part of the funds appro priated should be reserved for the erection of a permanent monument, and after some delay In arranging to combine their re sources in order to erect a Joint memorial, and In deciding on a site, the combined . commissions have chosen the lighthouse reservation at ' Crown Point as offering greater advantages than any ether of the many available situations about the lake. Crown Point lies near the southern end of the lake, between the wide mouth of Bullwaga bay on the New York side, and the narrow channel that leads down from lloonderoga on the Vermont aide. Though actually In New York, It aeems. from either shore, to lie between the two states.' It Is visible from both shores,' and from the trains of the Delaware Hud son railroad, and from tha lake lUelf for a great distance to the north. The line of water traffic passes within too feet of It The lighthouse Itself Is built at the ex tremity of Crown Point, on the site of an ancient battery whose earthworks are still visible, and la not far from the ruins of forts Frederick and Amherst, dating from 1731 to 17M. The style Is that of Prance of the time of Champlain, as used la parts of Fon telnebleau and other royal hunting lodges situated in comparatively wild places. Eight robust columns on a high base sur round the central shaft and carry a boldly decorated entablature; above the entabla ture is a visitors' gallery, separate from the gallery about the light Itself, which Is carried up on the continuation of the atalr shaft The whole has a sharply ac centuated silhouette, and atrong vertical lines of light and shade, which will dif ferentiate 11, and make its monumental character unmistakable at any distance at which It can be seen. At the front la a bronze statue of Cham plain, placed high, so as to be above the trees. At one elds of him Is an Indian and on the other a courier du bole. Just be low the group la the prow of a conven tionalised canoe, laden with the products of the country. A broad flight of granite tape leada from the landing-wharf up to ( the circular terrace on which the struo- ture stands, with two pyramidal memorial obelisks at either side, bearing the arms of New York and Vermont.

Since the agitation against wearing the elk tooth as an emblem of the order, mem bers of the Benevolent Protective Order of Kiks have been pursuing Investigations as to the supply of these Ivories available tor emblems. ' The contention Is made that the con tinued use of the elk tooth as an emblem creates a demand and establishes a value for these teeth which Is sure to be fol lowed by the annihilation of all the small elk herds now In existence. The result of the Investigations of west ern elks reveals the fact that there are now In existence enough bull elk teeth to supply twelve times the present num ber of members of the ordor. It would be easier and less, expensive to acquire 100 of these teeth than to seeure the car cass of one bull elk, from which but two teeth would be available. It Is, or haa been, assumed that elk have been and are being slaughtered for their teeth alone. It may be that this belief prevails In the east, but any such asser tion Is false. The writer ventures to say that no elk ever was killed for Its teeth alone. The only teeth worth making Into an emblem is those from the bull elk. The teeth of the cow elk1 are small and ragged, and no member of the order who wants a fine charm will use one of these. The bull elk haa but two teeth which are used aa emblems. ' There are probably 15.- J 000 elk now In existence In the United States. Of this number probably 1,000 are bull elk. These are nearly all In the Yellowstone National park or tributary ter ritory. In the park they are protected by the government. Thess elk range and breed In the park during the summer, but In the winter they go south for food. Food Is scarce in this section. Settlers are tak ing up the land and the elk fare badly. For four or five years elk have died from starvation by hundreds. A few are killed by hunters, but these are Insignificant com. pared to the number that die of cold and hunger. Long before the B. P. O. E. came Into ex istence It was the custom of the Crow Indians to gather the teeth of the bull elk. and for half a century before the order of Elks was organised these teeth were used aa a medium of exchange with the Sioux. the latter being as fond of eagle feathers. Thirty or forty years ago there was a brisk trade In these articles, the Crows buying feathers of the Sioux and paying therefor In elk teeth, horses, hides, etc. Indian traders took both feathers and teeth in exchange for merchandise, but they had no value with the trader except that he exchanged them with the traders of the opposite Indian nation. In 1370 bull elk teeth could have been bought at M cents per peck. The eagle feather supply had become exhausted. The Crows bad all tha elk teeth they wanted. Their women were adorned from head to foot. The necklaces of the men were fully ornamented and there was no further de mand, hence the value fell to almost nothing. While the most of the elk from which those teeth were taken were shot by In diana, a large percentage of them were frosen to death and tha teeth taken from the heads from one to ten years after With few exceptlona the bull elk teeth now used aa charms or emblems for members I of the B. P. O. E. were taken from elk 1 1 Only One hnut place to Blue Suits.

Prof. Ernst Sell In, the Austrian Egpyto loglst, reports that be has found In the lower Jordan plain near the road between Jerusalem and Jericho, remains of a palace which he believes Is one of those built by Herod the Great The building, asserts Sellln, might easily be reconstructed after the original plans The expedition financed by Jacob H. Schlff of New York has now brought to light many remarkable ruins In Palestine, of which the Sellln "find" is not the least. The remains of Israel's ancient capital are to be found, for the moat part on a huge Isolated hill, 350 feet In height, six miles northwest of Nablus, otherwise known as Shechem, and about twenty miles from the Mediterranean sea. The mount la covered with orchards of olives. figs and pomegranates. J The first that Is known of this hill In history Is when ' It was bought, about 900 B. C. by Omrl, who built a town called Shomeron, afterwards known as Samaria. There Ahab, the son of Omrl, built temple to Baal, and also an Ivory palace. In the Ivory palace he ruled the northern kingdom down to 722 B. C as see the ac counts In the Book of Kings in the Ola Testament. When Sargon captured Shomeron (Sa maria) he took away 27,000 people Into captivity. The population he left In the city waa put under tha reign of an As syrian governor, and the city was colonised by Sargon and Esarhaddon with Babylon lane In place of the exiled Israelites. The next conqueror of Samaria was Alexander the Great. The place continued to be oc cupied clear en down to the time of Herod He rebuilt and "Improved" the city and named It Sebaste. This waa Just before the birth of Christ Herod had a passion for building cities. and he literally dotted the landscape of his time with temples and palaces. He was notoriously cruel and was poor pay. He made everybody work for him for nothing Mr. Schlff s excavators report that they have found most of the palaces of the Israelite kings who dwelt In Samaria, in eluding the 'Ivory palace" of Ahab. Tab lets were discovered In the last named, giv ing namea of persons and places In aome new clphera for numerals, and a few auch expressions as "old wine" and "clarified oil." of which the tablets would Indicate King Ahab had an abundant supply in his cellars. Also there was dug up royal notice of ferings aent to Ahab from Egypt and a clay tablet letter to Ahab from a king of Assyria, possibly Aasur-nesir-pal, known In history aa the "Assyrian Colossus." The identification of the letter la not yet com plete. Ahab waa one of Israel's great kings, say Prof. Relsner. who Is la charge of the Samarian excavations under the Schlff grant New York World Persistent Advertising la the Big Returns. Road to v H CHEER UP,' URGES SCIENTIST Optimiim Helpi to Cure Ills, Declares Rathvon. i GLOOM NO AID TO SUCCESS Speaker t'pholda Triifti ef Christian Brlenee Faith In Address Before Atdlmrf at the Itrandels Theater. "Be of rood cheer.-' nil the admonition of Wlillam R. Rathvon, C. S. R., r.f Vrn- ver. who delivered a f'hristlan science lecture at the Uranrlels theater last msht. The speaker urre 1 the necessity of an optimistic attitude to one who 'sought suc cess. Mr. Rathvon Is a memher of the Christian Science hoard of lectureship nf the First Church of Christ. Scientist. Boston. "There Is a short and cheering precept that Christian Science has to deliver to all who have ears to hear." said Mr. Rathvon. "It is pot a new message. It has reas sured the children of men ever since they first felt the chill of feat. The loving mother encouraging her toddling Infant, the gallant captain cheering- his men to greater valor, the gentle Savior quieting his affrighted disciples, all use It. That message Is, 'Be not afraid.' " 'And why.' it may be asked, 'dos Christian Science lay so much stress upon tha need of overcoming fear? Is not fear a thing of only occasional occurrence due to causes not easily preventable? Toes It not affect the emotlona only and are not Its effecta but temporary?' Let us see. "Christian Science emphasises the fact that when fear Is eliminated from the consciousness of tha sick man no matter what tha nature of hta illness he hns taken a long atef) toward recovery. It declares also that people who ars hab itually free from fear, worry, anxiety, ap prehension and tha like are far less sus ceptible to Illness and. misfortune than others. It has uncovered In fear an agency of evil, an enemy of health, a de stroyer or peace and a bar to man's progress heavenward. It la not to be won dered, then, that tha elimination of foar from human consciousness Is an Impor tant feature of the mission of Christian Science. , Christian Science brings tha truth to human comprehension, gives freedom from whatever enslaves and thus bestows men ial, moral ana physical liberty. In the process of liberation It sifts out certain pernicious practices and propensities, gen erany regarded as harmless, but which are to be shunned as allies of evil. It shows us that we have indulged in moods and Inclinations that we believed were guile less, If not commendable, but were in reality neither wise nor harmless. We find we have been warming in the incuba tor of our favor the eggs of serpents hat we oelleved belonged to doves. Perhaps tha most common of these disease-Inviting habits is discouragement. I daresay we have all been on intimate terms with It one time or aonther, and, while wa have never found It cheerful company, wa nave not looked upon it aa a sinister visitor. Yet that la Just what Christian Science shows it to be. Discouragement wears the invisible livery of evil and ia constantly and con sistently working for Its master. It is always pulling down and never building up. 'Did you ever know any ona to accom plish anything while In tha grip of dis couragement T It paralyses effort, stupe fies thought and dissipates purpose." GRAND ARMY GAINS ITS POINT i - Cnthello Authorities Decide that Cof. fins Drape la National Colore Be Aoaaitiea to Ch arches. In a letter received by Past Commander James A. Rooney of the McPherson Doana Post, Grand Army of the Republic, at his home, IMS, Eighty third street, Bath Beach, Long Island, It is learned that the Catholic authorities In Rome had given a decision permitting the display of the American flag around the coffins of dead comrades In all the churches of that denomination in this country. For almost two years there haa been canalderable friction between the Grand Army of the Republic and some pastors of that faith over the refusal to allow a cof fin draped In the flag to be brought into the body of the church near the altar. Other pastors found nothing In the Roman Catholic ritual against this practice, and accordingly countenanced It. I he matter came to a head a year ago In the Church of the Presentation at Fa Rockaway, when the coffin containing th body of a dead comrade of Rankin post was not allowed to be brought Into the body of the church until the flag draped about It was removed. Some mem bera of the post who belonged to other creeds apparently resented this act by re malnlng on the steps on the outside of the church until the requiem mass for the repose of the soul of the dead comrade was finished and the coffin carried out of the church. It was brought to the attention of the memorial and executive committee of the Grand Army of the Republic and Past Commander Rooney, as chairman of the law and legislation committee, wrote a letter to Mgr. Falconl asking him to have the Vatican settle the question. He wanted to have a uniform rule adopted In all the Roman Cathollo churches In this city, so that there would be no fur ther trouble, Mr. Rooney said last night that he bad obtained a greater concession that he asked. According to the decision from Rome, the flag can be displayed at the funeral services of members of the Grand Aimy of the Republic In the Catholic churches throughout the country. The decision goes even further, he said, aa the same privilege is extended to any servloe in Cathollo churches in which the Grand Army of ths Republio attends In a body. With Mr. Rooney In this work was Mgr. William White, pastor of the Church of the Visitation in Richards street, Brooklyn. Father White wrote to Cardinal Gibbons and got him Interested. It waa aaid that the decision of the Vatican will be pro mulgated through the proper channels throughout the church body In this coun try. New York Times.
