A GREAT ORGAN.
The Second Largest Instrument tn the
World.


The largest organ in the world, with
the exception of the one in Riga, Russia,
is in the Cathedral of the Inearnations at
Garden City, l.. l., the church built by
Mrs. A. L. Stewart, as memorial to
her husband. The instrument is dis
tributed in four distinct and widely sep
arated localities of the cathedral, al
though the whole is under the control
of one performer, through the agency of
an electric action. In an octagonal
chamber, built for the purpose in the
angle formed by the transept and chan
eel walls is the largest portion of the
instrument. The organ is here divided
into floors, or stories, and in the base
ment are the engine, countershaft, etc.
Above this on floor of brick and iron,
are the bellows aud the wind chest, on
which rest the thirty-tko-foot pipes.
The great organ windchest, with that of
the reeds and fixtures of the pedal or
gan are on the next level and then fol-
lows the swell organ, and, above all. the
choir. Each of the three manual wind
chests is furnished with its own auxili-
airy reservoir or regulator" where the
wind is reduced to the pressure needed
for that department.
In the tower at the western end OF
the cathedral is the next important d.
vision of the organ. In this room, which
is fifteen feet square, and is high enough
to admit of one windchest being sup
ported above another, are placed parts
of the great swell, and pedal organs
and the whole of the solo organ, the sec
ond of these being above the first, the
third at one side, and the fourth st the
back. In the chapel beneath the ca
thedral is the third section. which is
provided with claviers of its own, SO
that it may be made independently
available for chapel purposes. This
comprises . part of the choir organ, d.
vided here between two manuals and
two of the pedal stops. Its tone rises
into the church through the different
staircaSes and the distance lends en-
chantment to the sound. The last part
consists of the echo organ and one pedal
stop, which is placed between the CELL
ing and the roof, above she intersection
of the nave and transept. The mystic
rious source of the tones produces sn in
teresting effect.
Steam power is used in initiating the
bellows. One engine is placed beneath
the chancel division to supply it with
compressed air, and another beneath
the tower to operate the bellows of ths
chapel division, the tower division, and
the magnetic machine, which generates
the electricity. Ali the wires used in
making the electric connections of the
instrument stretched out in a continu.
Gus circuit would extend over distance
of twenty-one miles.-M T. Times.

OUR FLAG.
The Adoption Of the National Ensign by
the Continental Congress.

The Adoption of the National Ensign by
the Continental Congress.
The subject of flag or standard was
considered early in the Continental Con-
gress; and, on the 14th of June, 1777,
this resolution was passed:
Rssolred, That the flag Of the thirteen United
States be thirteen stripes. alternate rcd and
white that the Union be thirteen stars. white.
IN a blue field, representing new constella-
ton.
The admission into the Union, after
the establishment of the present Gov
eminent, of Vermont and Kentucky as
new States, caused the number of stars
and stripes to be increased to fifteen
each; and the subsequent addition of
five other States led the following enact
ment, which is yet in force, approved
on the 18th of April, 1918:
AN ACT TO establish the flag OF the United
States.
Bet enacted by the Senate and House Of Rep
rosentGtires ~ the UnitCd States Of Anericd IN
Congress assembled That from and after the 4th
day of July next, the flag of the United States
be thirteen horizontal stripes; alternate red
and white; that the Union be twenty stars,
white in a blue field.
SEC. 2 And bet further enacted. That on the
admission of every new State into the Union.
one star be added TO the union OF the flag;
and that such addition shall take effect on
the 4th day July then next succeeding such
admission.
Whenever. therefore, an American sees
this glorious ensign of his country. the
stripes recall to his mind the birth of the
Republic, with the events that surround
ed it; the stars suggest its wonderful de-
velopment in size, in resources, and in
power; and, in homage to the national
grandeur and protective authority which
it represents, wherever he beholds it
whether in mid-ocean floating at the
head of passing ship, or waved aloft
in the streets of foreign Landslide lifts

a Fair Income,

Outside the House of Commons, most
persons are of opinion that f700. 900
per annum is quite enough for the MAIN
tenance of the royal family, and that
this amount ought not to be increased.
Why, then, is this opinion so little re-
presented inside? Because NJ. p are
human, and their wives are also human.
An NJ. p. who votes against a royal
grant has an uncomfortable feeling that
lie is, perhaps, damaging his social
position of that of Mrs. NJ. P. Why sem
sible people out of the House of Commons
are opposed to the increase of these
grants is, because the 100000 per an
mum now allotted to the royal family is
not spent. and the civil list was never
intended to enable its recipients to lay
by private fortunes. If they can do this,
it is obvious that they have the means to
provide for their children London

why Men Are Likely to Become Scarce In
Time.
1t appears from published statistics
of the worlds population that women
have a greater tenacity of life than
men. Nature worships the female in
all it's varieties. Among insects the
male periSheS at a relatively earlier
period. In plants the seminate bios
SONS die earliest, and are produced In
the weaker limbs. Female quadrupeds
have more endurance than males. In
the human race. despite the intellectual
and physical strength of the man. tina
woman endureS longest. and will bear
pan TO which the strong man sue
cumbs. ZvmOtic diseases are more
fatal TO males, and more male children
die than female. Deverga asserts that
the proportion diving suddenly is about
one woman TO seven men; one thou
sand and eighty men in the United
States, in 1870, committed suic de, to
two hundred and eighty-five women.
lntcmperance. apOplexy. govt, hydro
cephalus. affections of fhe heart or
liver, scrofula. paralysis, are far more
fatal tn males than females. Pulmo-
nary consumption. on the other hand, is
more deadly TO the latter. Females in
cities are more prone to consumption
than in the country. All old countries
not disturbed by emigration have a
majority of females in the population.
I'm royal families the statistics show
more daughters than sons. The He
brew woman is exceptionally long
livee; the colored man is exceptionally
short-lived. The married state is IA
vorable to prolongation of life among
women. DIR. Hough remarks that
there are from two TO six per cent
more males born than females, yet
there are more than six per cent. of
females in the living population, from
which statistics it may be concluded
that all women who can possibly OBJ
tain one of these rapidly departing
men ought to marry, and that. as men
are likely to become very scarce they
can not be sufficiently priced by the
other sex.--BoStOD Budget.

play new work of his composition for

reported, and truly as it turned out. that
owing TO his increasing deafness he
would seldom be again beard in con-

large, and the reception of the composer
when he took his place at the instrument
was most enthusiastic. By some unac-

The notion of one heat driving out
another gave rise to the old-fashioned
custom of placing a burned part near
the fire to drive out the fire; a practice,
says DIR. Bucknen, certainly not with

pie as the application of turpentine and
other stimulants to recent burns.
