EVOLUTION OF BUDDHISM

The establishment Of a Buddhist
periodical in this country very natur-
ally causes more interest to be taken
in this, to our people, a strange and
almost unknown base from which a
code Of morals have been taught in
Orient for thousands Of years.
1t is announced that the French
baron, Hasden-Hickey, will spouse
the cause Of introducing Buddhism in
the United States, and being a man Of
great ability and experience, a jour
nalist, novelist and politician, will
readily attract attention TO the doc
trines proclaimed by Gautama. Baron
Hickey is 81 years old, was educated
in the college Of the Jesuits and is now
the leading exponent Of Buddhism in
Europe.
To understand Buddhism one must
know something of the religious his
/ tory Of India and China. Many hun
dred years before the Christian era a
religion spread over all Of India and
large portions Of China, Of which it is
claimed that Christianity is a pattern
The leading spirit of that religion was
called Krishna, and the history Of hi:
life and crucifixion is very similar t
that Of our Christ. He was born Of Z
virgin, was hung on tree over the
water Of the Gauges, cut down and his
body left for the fishes to feed upon
as was the custom Of that country.
The history Of creation as connected
with this religion was that God created
man and a woman whom he called
Hadam and Heva and their home wa!
on a beautiful island in sight Of tn,
mainland. Hadam wanted to go L
the mainland while Heya contendeC
that they remain at home, but Hadan
had his way and phantom bridge ap
peared on which the two passed to tn,
mainland and as soon as they haC
reached the shore the bridge disap
peared, preventing their return ant
thus they were deprived Of thei
garden Of Eden. a peculiar featur
Of this is that it was the man witt
persuaded the woman to transgress b.
leaving their home contrary TO TIN
commandments or their creator, Will
in our biblical history it was tn
woman who led the man Adam asst ay

He asserts also that the safest horse for

owned and handled some fine Kentucky
horses when he was young and then he
thought that horse was almost human.
Now he thinks they are positively in
human. He has seen one kick an inno-
cent child to death because it
toddled near It's heels; he has seen
a pair Of "safe horses" run away with a
carriage dash it to pieces against a tele-
graph pole, killing a man and woman
out Of two couples, aud manning the other
/ man and woman for life. And, statistics
will show that a greater number Of per-
sons are killed and injured every year by
/ horses than by all other means Of con-
veyance-steambo boat, explosions and rail
| way accidents included. There are some
reasons why the safest horses are those
that can't run away.
In general way the horse has less
sen than any other thing hat walks,
creeps or crawls on earth. He will get
a foot over trace or pole, and without
sense enough to lift it back will kick,
rear, plunge, fall down. roll over,
hopelessly entangle himself, and

piece of paper blown across the track;
rush headlong to his death over preci-
pice or smash himself against a stone
wall To get him out OF burning barn
you must blindhold him to get him out,
and if he gets an opportunity he will rush
back into the flames and cremate himself.
He will walk around post to which he
is hitched until he can't wind any more

This religion fOurished for many
but eventually declined and
there came another reformer or savior
called Gautama, who is recognized as
the philosopher of Buddhism. He is
said to have been a prince Of Brahma
and an heir to the throne, and the his
tory of Buddhism relates that he re-
signed all his claims to the throne and
went out among the common people,
clad in common garments, to study
the needs of his race. He made no
claims to being God or supreme
being, but followed the life of phi
lanthropist. The religious teachings
Of Krishna were not superseded, but
rather restored and improved by eau
tama.
Gautama is supposed to have lived
500 years before Christ, and it is
claimed by Oriental writer's that the
Essences were followers Of Gautama.
This is corroborated by Pliny and
Josephus. 1t is also said that John
the Baptist was an Essene, and from
these facts it is believed by some that
Christianity was evolved from the
teachings of Krishna and Gautama OF
India.
Buddhism has almost disappeared
from India, but is still the most prev
alent religion in China. The princi
pies and morals taught by Krishna
and Gautama still prevail in India anc
the change in religion is principally il
name. Among the SO0,000,OO0 OF
Orientals where these various relig
ions have grown by evolution it is {
universal belief that man must live {
life wholly free from sin or evil doing
before the soul can be freed from re

CORNELL UNIVERSITY AND IN
GERSOLL

1t is quite within the province Of
faculty Of Cornell University to forbid
its senior law class to bring Colonel
lngersoll TO Ithaca to deliver the com
mencement address. 1t is likely, also,
that in doing so they will have the APP
proval Of great many people. But it
is an unjustifiable subterfuge for one
professor to assign as the reason for
faculty's action: colonel Ingersoll
is an adyocate-nOt a great lawyer"
That is subterfuge, pure and simple.
Let the lawyers determine whether
Ingersoll is a lawyer or an advocate.
Let the college presidents decide
whether a lawyer or an advocate can
best prepare an ornamental address
for a class of young sprigs Of the law.
Bxt let us have the plain truth in this
case about Colonel lngersoll, which is
that the Cornell faculty dare
not lend their rOstrom TO a man
who has the name Of an intdel
and "God-hater." Cornell is purely
non-sectarian. 1t has men in its
faculty, doubtless, who are as wide of
orthodoxy in religion as Ingersoll ever
was. But these men, if they are
known to the world at all, are known
as scholars and scientists, not as
infidels. Ingersoll is ga horse Of another
color. He is great and successful
/ lawyer-Or advocate: his personal
character is stainless: he enjoys the
esteem Of the great and learned, but
/ he is Bob the Intidel." If Cornell,
careful of its standing among religious
people, turns such a man away from
its door, there is no need to make
apologies or hating excuses. The
simple truth is enough. As for Colonel
Ingersoll, he is made once more to feel
the penalty that visits the man with
a hobby.

Capital actively and fairly employed
in the industries, trade and commerce
is the greatest blessing a country can
have, and that kind of capital and the
labor and agricultural interests should
lose no time in becoming friends and
allies, forming an alliance offensive
and defensive, against that other
capital used only to wreck and make
money out Of the wreckage. People
will discuss the question Of capital
against labor and we should arrive at
a definite understanding as to what
kind of capital is meant. Neither
capital nor labor can prosper in legiti'
mate business without being close
friends with and each earnestly inter
ested in the welfare Of the other.

ISOTHERMAL LINES

In the selection Of seeds il is well to
know where they were grown as they
will usually do best in their native
climates. Sometimes it is desirable
to obtain seed that will give a quick
maturing crop, and then those that
have grown in a more northern climate
arc selected. In this natter mistakes
are sometimes made by supposing that
the climate is nearly the same in
similar ATTITUDES, which is a great
error. A line running irregularly east
and west along which the climate is
the same, especially the degrees Of
heat and cold, is called an isOthermal
line and when these isothermal lines
are known we know what climate is
possessed by any section Of the coun-
try. Below we give the centre of the
sugar beet producing belt by giving
the isothermal line that averages 20
degrees for the months Of June, July
and August. and taking this fora base
line we may closely estimate the
climate Of any point north or south Of
that line by taking into consideration
the elevation and other surroundings
that affect the temperature.
TINS isC thermal line, for the United
States, begins at the city Of New York
and passes up the Hudson river to

VARIOUS RELIGIOUS POSITIONS

Mr.. Macqueary, who has gained so
much recent nOtoriety regard to the
Episcopal church heresy, says in a
Chicago interview: at makes very lit
tie difference what a person believes
so that he does all right" and Prof.
Swing adds to the declaration by the
statement that the modern mind says
whatsoever things are true is what
the great world wants. We are
obliged in each age, TO make allow
ance for the unavoidable ignorance Of
that age. Goldsmith in the early part
Of this century wrote that Indians
could easily pass over the Niagara
Falls in canoes: and Chauteaubriand
that the wild bears in America get in
tOxicated by eating grapes. Even in
that day people accepted these state
ments as facts, without questioning,
and waited, uncOnsciously, while their
brothers in science smoOthed the way
for their greater knowledge. So it
comes about that each age must
naturally adjust its religious position
/ to the new information thus acquired.
/ 1t is unavoidable that various religious
denominations should eliminate much
from their various creeds. 1t is for
this very change that the telescope is
turned intelligently on the heavens
and that the biologists hammer is
heard on the rocks. During the days
when the early Christian fathers die
tated the policy Of the church the
study of the mind was considered the
most important of all mans investiga-
tion. So, when a great brain like
Bruno's arose, it was thought Deces-
sary for the health Of the spiritual
part Of us that it should be
quickly suppressed.
Not so today: and while "A small sect
may dictate an iron bound creed, in
telligent curiosity-we almost said
for want Of better word-lOUks over
and beyond these external evidences
Of clerical conflict. But il is part OF
the rulings Of a kind Providence that
truth should not burst on the world il
day and that man should creeI
slowly and intelligently toward thai
T. divine light, which is the light o.
nineteenth century civilization.
Even the Roman Catholic church
! with all its supposed impregnable ar
5 NOR, is feeling the tide Of reform. L
b.. shows this from time to time, whel
5 some great-minded cardinal like DR.
5 Gibbons, Of Baltimore, suggests {,
