The Bible Unique.

"Thc Bible Unique Among the Litera-
lures Of the World" was the subject of d
lecture delivered last night by Rev. Dr. r.
H. McKim at meeting held in the Metro
rolitan NJ L. Church, under the auspices of
the American Society of Religious Educa-
ton. This was the closing lecture Of a
series of addresses on the Bible which have
leen delivered during the winter before the
sc ciety. Rev. ]. E. Gilbert presided DR..
McKim considered the Bible purely from a
literary standpoint, and directed attention
to its interesting composition, including, as
It does. laws, codes and rituals, songs and
sonnets, poetry, sermons, parallels and
proverbs. In that sublime composition, the
first chapter of Genesis he said. over ], 500
years of Jewish life and history is COM
pressed, and the book of Job was without
a peer in the dramas of literature
DIR. Mckim said that 1t was proof of the
divine origin of the Bible that although
over fifty authors are represented in Its
composition, and 1t consists of many
separate books, written at widely differing
periods and places, yet 1t retains its unity
as a whole

recitations by Robert Smiley, Miss T. E.
Powers Mrs. f. B. Leach, Miss Matte
Wade, Mr. Sheridan Ferree and Mr.. Aaron

TROOP AS MARCH.

The Route Mapped Out for the. COM
ing Trip.
Presidents Troop A, the cavalry organi-
cation of the District National Guard, ex-
poets to start on it's summer march June
Is. in company with twenty-five members of
the famous troop A of New York city,
under Capt. Roe. The itinerary of the
march has been arranged. The first day
the troopers mean to reach Fairfax Court
House, Va, a distance Of sixteen miles,
The following day the country between
Fairfax Court House and Gainesville. sew
enteen miles, will be covered. The march
on the second day could be made from Fair
fax Court House to Manassas by way of
Centerville. thus passing over the battle
fields Of Chantilly. Centerville. Bull Run
and Manassas and the itinerary may be
changed to provide for the foregoing. The
third days march is from Manassas to
Warrenton, twenty-one miles. The party
will remain at Warrenton until the even
ing of the fifth day. when it will march to
a point near Marshall, Va, and bivouac
From Marshall to Front Royal is the pro-
gram for the sixth day. and for the seventh
Front Royal to Winchester. AS now pro-
posed the eighth and ninth days are to be
spent in Winchester, but by marching from
Front Royal to Strasburg and from Stras-
burg to Winchester on the seventh and
eighth days the historic battlefields of the
campaigns of Stonewall Jackson and Phil
Sheridan. including Cedar Creek. would be
covered. This would give the ninth day at
Winchester. as well as all of the tenth day
until evening, when the march could be re-
sumed to Camp Wheat.
The route as mapped out provides that
on the tenth day the cavalrymen will march
from Winchester to Camp Wheat, the next
day from Camp Wheat to Round Hill, the
twelfth day from Round Hill to Leesburg,
spending the thirteenth day in Leesburg.
The day following they proceed from Lees
burg to Falls Church, and on the fifteenth
and final day reach the armory. The dis
lance to be covered is 1888 miles.

Glut of Fish.

In the words of Inspector Harris. who
looks after the marine products for the
District, 1.-The river is full of fish,"
There is q glut in the fish market. and
at the river front no reasonable offer is
refused. So many fish have been caught
and brought here, and the prices have been
SO low. that several of the fishing shores
have been abandoned and hundreds of men
left without employment.
The fuest shad are bringing only about
so a hundred while herring are selling as
low as fifty cents a thousand. Other fish
are selling at correspondingly low prices.
Last week there arrived at Fishtown OH
600 herring SO, i23 shad, IS carp. stur-
geon. 1928 punches of fish and 200 bush
els of oysters.
During the week the Inspector con-
demned 10000 herring. 40 shad, 81 bunches
of fish and 30 bushels Of oysters. These
fish were taken back down the river and
used for fertiliZing purposes.
