ON WATLlNG'S ISLAND.

A Chicago Newspapers Exploring Expedl.
tion Declares This Locality In the Ba-
hamas to Be the Spot Where Columbus
First Set Foot ON American Soil.
CHICAGO, July 6.-Dispatches re-
ceived from the Chicago Herald's expe-
dition in search of the landing place on
this continent of Christopher.Columb
announce that the spot on which the
new world was born to civilization has
at last been found and marked by an
appropriate and enduring memorial.
This spot is Watling's island, BAHIA
mas, and to prove that it was the San
Salvador Of Columbus. it is only
necessary to look closely into the
recofd left by Columbus himself and
compare 1t with the island as it exists
to-day. A careful comparison Of the
description Of San Salvador as given
by Columb bus himself with Watling's
island as 1t was found by the Herald
explorers leaves no doubt that Wat
ling's island was the place on which
Christopher Columbus landed In the
early morning of Friday, October ~,
1902. Accordingly, on June Is the
Herald's monument was erected upon
the picturesque headland which forms
the southern shore Of Discovery
bay. The site chosen was an admira.
BILE one in every particular. It is only
200 yards from the very sand beach on
which Columbus landed, and commands
a fine view not only of Discovery bay,
but of all the coast north and south
Under the monument was placed q
bundle Of newspapers, containing
copies of the principal journals of the
United States, and portraits Of many
leading editors, making tho monument
more dlstinctively than ever an Ameri-
can newspaper Offering to the memory
Of the great discoverer.
HIS LIFE CRUSHED OUT.
A Small Bey Trampled to Death by an
Elephant Near Denver.
DENVER, Col, July 6.-Sunday after
noon an immense crowd gathered at
Manhattan Beach, a resort near here,
to witness a balloon ascension by a
woman. There is menaSerie at the
beach and it had been advertised that
children would be given ride on
the back of an elephant. The ele-
plant had made two trips and was Just
returning to the animal house with
eight children on his back when the
balloon started up. The animal be-
came terribly frightened at the balloon
and began trumpeting and running
about, making frantic efforts to unseat
the children. They all fell off and all
but one escaped uninjured. A little
boy named Johnny Eaton was the vic
tim, and he was caught under the ele-
plants feet and crushed out of oil
semblance to humanity. The keeper
of the elephant stuck a pitchfork in the
animals trunk and was thrown high in
the air by the enraged animal. He,
however, was not seriously hurt. BY
this time several other attendants had
arrived and managed to secure the
elephant with chain.

CHRISTMAS.

Before The News is again issued
Christmas wilt be here. Let it be time
of rejoicing and good cheer. Long
before the birth Of Christ it was OBJ,
served, under another name of course.
The ancients kept it as a time Of re-
joicing, because on that day the sun
had reached his furthest point in his
southwark march, an he'd turned back
to bring genial spring and autumn
nal harvest. 1t proclaimed the death
of winter and the birth of a new year.
When christianity spread among the
heather nations it found this observ-
ance thoroughly grounded in the
public MUD. Catholicism, with its
usual sagacity, grated the day INTO
its religious calendar and gave to it
its religious significance. Since then
1t has been kept to commemorate the
birth of Christ. And as Christ came
to spread Joy and gladness, and "to
give gifts unto all men," it has been
specially day of good cheer when
gifts were made to one another.
Unfortunately it has been prostituted
by many into time of carousal and
general debauchery. The spirit Of
the day has been largely lost. II
every parent in the land would, on
Christmas morning, tell their
children that the reason Santa Claus
comes, and gifts are made, and the
world rejoices, is in humble imitation
of Gods great gift to men, much
would he done to restore its proper
Observance.
There is no need of lavish outlay
in toys for the children, as that is
apt to beget within them a spirit Of
extravaganza and dissatisfaction with
such things as ought to give joy to a
childish heart. Many mistakes are
made on that line. Let such expen-
ditures be within reason and beyond
stinginess, but let not the day 60 by
without a part of your money goes
to make some heart glad beyond your
own roof. If you will do this, the
day will take on a new significance and
be worth something to you in your
journey through lie.
