THE REVISED OLD TESTAMENT.
May 18th will be the anniversary of the
publication of the revised version of the New
Testamant, and it is announced that the re-
vised version of the Old Testament is to be
published in England on the 21st of May.
The revisers have had long task.e The
company was constituted in 1870, and since
they began work ten of their number have
died, while two have resigned, others being
elected to fill their places. Some of the best
Hebrew and Oriental scholars in Europe have
been engaged upon the revision. They have
held eighty five sessions, the most of them
lasting nine days. Beginning on a Tuesday
they have sat six hours daily until the Fri
day of the following week, the Jerusalem
Chamber or, failing that, the Library of
Westminster, having been the scene of their
labors. No outsider knows what they have
done, as they have kept their proceedings to
themselves, and have refused the tempting
offer of an American publisher of one thou
sand pounds for an advance copy of the re-
vision.
The revisers have worked very carefully.
In the first place they went through
u
majority in the voting was enough to make
a change. Going over it the second time
nothing was approved of unless consented to
by two-thirds of the committee; while third
revision devoted to the consideration
of disputed translations, and the two-thirds
method of voting again adopted. Perhaps
the broadest field of their labers has been in
the books of the Prophets, and it is said that
to them the greater part of the time has been
given. One writer upon the subject in an
English paper, who seems to have some spe-
cial source of information, thinks that the
revised Old Testament will differ more from
the revised version of 1911 than did the re-
vised New Testament, although the material
at the command of the revisers in the latter
case was more ample than that which those
at work on the Old Testament have been able
to procure.
Of course the revised version of the Old
Testament will be eagerly and carefully ex-
amined by great many, but it will not be
surprising if it fails to excite deep and gen
eral interest. The revised New Testament
did not find the sale which its printers ex-
pected, and much money was lost upon it.
Publishers will be more careful with the re-
gised Old Testament

The Soldiers Monument and East
Rock Park.

East
Rock Park.
To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
In your JOURNAL of Friday last a 'Vet-
eran of the G. A. R" writes his objections
to the monument going up on East Rock
Park Now he doesn't seem to think that it
is the duty of the present generation to beau
tify the Park all they can and not be selfish
about it. In twenty-five years from now it
will be a beautiful place and the general re-
sort of the citizens of New Ha-
ven. More people will see and ad-
mire the monument than if on
the Green. ''Veteran" forgets that the
Common Council had no right to give away
to any body of men that part, or any part,
of the old Green given to the G. A. R. for
the erection of monument. The charter
forbids it, and, moreover, he doesn't speak
the full sentiments of tae G. A R. when he
objects to the placing of the monument on
the Park, for the idea of first placing it there
came from "Veteran" on the committee
Every object our people can place on East
Rock Park to beautify it should be done, and
when that one hundred feet column is
erected and its spiral stairway car
ries our citizens to its top, four hun
dred feet above the city, it will be magnifi-
cent sight and every stranger getting sight of
it twenty miles away" will soon know that
it is a monument to the citizens of New Ha-
ven who thought treason odious and loyalty
honorable and helped form a part of that
living breastwork which broke the back of
rebellion and gave their lives that the nation
might live. AS for the old Green, with its
old State House, woodshed, band stand, bro
ken flagstaff and dumping ground for street
cleaning in the winter, being the only place
proper to put the monument, why, 'EVete-
RAM is in error and he will think so twenty
years hence.

Tho MnUwuplln,

The mugwump is an eastern bird,
With plumes of gorgeous hue;
His crest is red, his bosom white,
His wings celestial blue;
And sparkling through those tints seen
Resplendent stars of argent sheen.
The mugwump's note is high and clear
AS nightingale or lark;
He sings when morning streakS appear
just breaking through the dark.
Der crows that croak and cocks that crow,
His upper Cs resistless CO.
The mugwump's claws are hooked and long,
His bill is short but keen;
His wings swoop onward, swift and strong.
His tail steers broad between,
And gazing on the sun he flies
. To meet the eagle in the skies
The mugwump flies at first alone,
Then two and three combine,
Then scores and hundreds troop to form
long extended line;
Then thousands ranked in serried wedge
Cut through their foes with trenchant edge.
From age to age some mugwump flock
Has made the nations THRILL
One perched of yore Plymouth rock,
One lit on Bunker Hill.
And thick and fast along the Rhine
The mugwumps flew in 40.
But still this royal bird is rare,
And grows in wondfous ways;
Not seen, but when with ancient rust
Some party old decays:
From whose dry bones 'tis fated then
A patriot brood be born again.
Whate'e the party yet contains
Unstained and living still,
Is gathered from the dead remains
In many mugwump'S bill;
And wrapped in Spices sweet and dense,
Is moulded to an egg immense.
Then on the mugwump's back tits borne
When blow the chill Novembers,
And laid, in spite of scoff and scorn,
Where glow elections emberS
Then following in its orb their nest
the mugwumps lay them down to rest.
The embers glow, the breezes rise,
The party orgaas roar;
The priests pile UP the sacrifice,
The rich libation pour;
Till bursts DER all the land blaze
The bonfire of election days.
1t fades: when 10! new light breaks 70. tn
New notes of joy are heard;
Out from the dull and dying pile
Springs up gorgeous bird.
Crest bill and claw, wing. tail and leg
Hatched from the nlugwump's spicy egg.
The Phoenix party Sec it fly
Above all by gone strife
Still gathering as it sweeps the sky,
The nations youth and life.
Whate'er its name, its soul shall be
The mugwumps spirit, bold and free.

better to keep the best gloves we

small margin than to try to get
larger profit on anything not
SO good. We never forget that.
1t pays BETTER, that is why we
stick to it. For an example of
excellence in quality look at the
