Tie Iron Crown" which worked up
the minds Of the people of the middle
ages to such an extent as finally to be.
come an object OF worship, is, in fact, a
gold crown, the secret magic Of the name
resting on the tradition that the inside
ring OF iron was made from the nails
which were driven through the hands O;
Jesus at the time Of the crucifixion.
But little is known concerning the his.
tory Of the iron crown until after tho
coronation of Agilulf. King Of the Lom.
bards. 1t is generally believed that it
was made for that monarch in the year
59l. 1t was used by Charlemagne and
by all the after emperors OF France, who
We're kings OF the Lombards. Napoleon
put it on his head when he was in
Milan in 1865, aying: God hath given
it to me.
This celebrated relic is now in Naples
among the state jewels. Itwas captured
and taken by the Austrians to Vienna in
1865, but was returned to Italy in 1865.
Believers in the sacred hoop of iron in.
side the crown point to the fact that
there is not a speck of rust upon it, al
though nearly 1900 years old.

PORTRAITS OF COLUMBUS.

The public school pupils, who are
going TO have the lead all over America
in the celebration of the 4C0th anniver.
tary Of the discovery of America by
Columbus, are already asking how Co
lumbus looked.
Many leading American publications
have recently contained timely articles
on the great discoverer, and the variety
Of portraits which has accompanied these
articles has been surprising.
By the highest authorities 1t IL con-
ceded that there is no likeness Of Colum-
bus whose claim TO consideration is In
disputable.
From Oviedo and his own son Ferdi.
nand-two persons who knew him-we
have descriptions Of his appearance,
upon which must be based our judg-
ment Of the alleged portraits.
From them we learn that his face
was long. neither full nor thin; his
cheek bones rather high; his nose aqui-
line; his eyes light gray; his complexion
fair and high colored. Up to the age OF
thirty his hair was of light color, but
became rapidly gray after that age. It
must be admitted in the face Of these
details that not one Of the portraits gives
very positive evidence of presenting the
great discoverer as he lived.
The earliest claimant for considera-
ton is wood engraving by Paolo
Giovio, published in 1915, which We
give.

An Astounding List.

1t takes ten columns Of space in the
New York World TO recspitulate all the
strikes which have occurred in protected
industries in this country since the Nc.
Kinley law went into effect. The mag.
nitude of the list is astounding, even to
those who have long been convinced
that protection protects capital in its
aggressions on labor. Sixteen days after
the act went into effect 200 iron miners
at Dayton, Tenn, struck against re-
duction Of wages. That was the first,
and it has been followed by no fewer
than 413 strikes against reduction OF
wages under the operation of the Nc.
Kinley tariff iniquity. As The World
expresses it, there 'has been no instant
OF time since the Mckinley tariff act
went into effect that there has not been
in progress somewhere within the
United States a strike against a pro-
posed reduction of wages in some pro-
tected industry."-St. Paul Globe.

A Constantly Narrowing Margin.

The impressiveness of Grover Cleve-
lands speech was principally in the fact
that he spoke truths that all have ex-
perienced, when he said that the people
are "burdened as consumers by tariff
system that relentlessly and unjustly
demands from them in the purchase of
the necessaries and comforts of life az
amount scarcely met by wages of hard
and daily toll" From every city and
hamlet in the land the facts prove this
truth, and no sweeping general state.
ment can convince the consumers Of the
country, who sec the margin between
wages and cost of living grow thinner
and thinner, that they are being benefit
ed by Republican protection. Utica On.

large number Of cattle and horses had

first this answered all right, but soon tho
cattle became exceedingly cautious about
entering the traps. waiting outside for
two or three nights before going In. and

plan which beat me. A mob would
come to the trap gate and one would 20
in and drink and come out, and then an
other would do the same, and 30 on, till
oil had watered. They had evidently
arrived at the conclusion tha. would
not catch one and frighten all the others

Charging back at the stock yard gate,

about month later, was failure; every

not head that way. This seemed to show
that the horses that escaped from tho
first hunt told all the others where tho
stock yard was.

While that portion Of the banner oc-
cupied by the name Of Harrison some
times exhibits itself to the gaze Of the
spectator, the tail of the streamer which
supports the name of Reid hangs like q
dead weight even in the briskest kind of

sons name would rise to the emergency,
as it were, but as often the name of Reid

down the proprietor of grandpa's hat to

There are many other so called like
nesses of Columbus. They are widely
scattered and it is not easy to link them
with the three shown above, which prob
ably have the best claims to consider
alton. But these three have little in
common. They would never be taken
tor portraits of the same person.
The most authoritative descriptions CT
the stature, complexion and personality
OF Columbus coincide, and yet the most
generally accepted portraits are not in
harmony. Many artists disregard the
statement that his nose was aquiline
and make it of decidedly retrousse
type; others portray him as brunette
with a short, fat and beardless face.
The next time we see him he is blond
with long, thin face, well covered with
whiskers. We always know him, as the
artist thoughtfully introduces his name;
otherwise lively guessing match might
result The style of the pictures would
naturally suggest the celebrities of a

for Plato, Othello the Moor, Alaric,
julius Cesar, Richard Ill and a score

Even composite OF the many portraits
could not blend or unite in one the dis
cordant conceptions which we see every
day. We must know Columbus by his
deeds, and not by his pictures.

Antiquity OF the Plane.

A very interesting discovery has been

five feet down the diggers found an urn.
shaped pottery vase, about foot long,
quite intact, and curiously enough, pro.
tected by Jumps OF chalk built around It.
The vase, which probably originally
contained some precious substance, was
quite empty. Above it was deposited a
humber Of iron implements, most Of
which were in q wonderful state OF pres.
crvation.
The principal specimen is carpenters

lifting crucibles, curious tripod candel.

other curious objects, the precise uses Of
