THE fact that in all the mining dis

greater increase in the outputof gold
than in other parts of the world
during the past year and that. too
in spite OF the fact that millions have
been poured into the foreign mines
ON Europe and very little has come
to this country, is apt to make Eu-
ropean investors seriously reflect
whether after all, this is not their

the ordinary cross. BY the bent armed

'Some of the Mexican spindle whorls
are marked with crosses, but none shows
the design in it's symbolic form so clear

light the other day. 1t was recently OBJ
tained-the specimen-by j. w. Detweil-
er of Bethlehem, Pa, from an ancient
and probably pre-Columbian grave in
the Rio Cuaca valley in the republic of
Colombia. Here the idea of cross SYM
bolism in ancient America, rather than
mere decoration by means of intersect-
ing lines, is well brought out by the
eight smaller crosses between the arms
of the central cross.
"To my mind, the specimen shows.
first, that the cross symbol existed in
ancient America before the coming of
Christianity Second, the cross symbol
carved on a spindle whorl by ancient
Americans in just the same manner as
ancient Asiatics and Europeans had
carved crosses on spindle whorls before
the birth Of Christianity. Third. the
identity of a peculiar process for spin

in South America shows it to be of ex-

A BALAKLAVA HERO GONE
The Last Man in America of the Six
Hundred Again Dies

Barney McKernan, probably the only
survivor of the Light brigade in this
country, died at his home in Phoenix
Vile Pa, last week, aged 70 years, from
asthma contracted in the army in the
Crimea. For many years he has been
most interesting character, and hun
dreds of people visited him every year
to see a man who wac in the charge made
famous by Tennyson's verse. The old
man, however, never seemed very proud
of the part he played in the famous
charge, for he regarded it as blunder.
and, to use his own language, IAN Eng
lish soldier is never very proud of max
ing a blunder, and If Tennyson had no;
immortalized the charge in cong it would
have never been heard of excepting as
an accident of war"
He was born in Lathram, west of Ire
land. When lad of II years of age he
ran away from home and went to Maid
stone, England, where he joined the
Seventeenth lancers, under command Of
Sir Colin Campbell, and was ordered to
India to help quell the Sikh rebellion.
After three years service in India, where
he received two bad wounds he returned
to England.
In 1854 his regiment wac sent to the
Crimea. At Balaklava the brigade was
commanded by Earl Cardigan, and Bar
ney rode beside him when Lord Raglan
gave the order to charge, and threatened
Cardigan with death if he refused to
obey orders.
Barney was shot three times, but kept
his seat in the saddle. When Barney
reached camp after the retreat ne wes
covered with wounds and his clothes
were saturated with blood. He was
taken to the hospital, and after his re-
covery he fought in the battles of Alma
and 1nkerman and came off without a
scratch. After the storming of the Mala-
koff, in which he took part, he returned
to England and finally drifted TO Amer.
lea.
For his bravery at Balaklava he re-
ceived two silver medals, one from the
queen of England and the other from
the sultan of Turkey. These medals he
prized very highly and just before he
died he asked that they might be put in
his hand, and the old soldier breathed
his last clasping them to his heart Bar
ney never received any pension for his
services, his medals being all the re-
ward he had. He lived in Phoenixville
for twenty years.--Philadelphia Press.

FARM EDUCATION FOR BOYS
An Institution Modelled After the
George Junior Republic

A new organization has just been
started in this city whose aim is to ele-
vate. morally and intellectually, boys
who have no opportunities OF learning
anything better than the vices they
may pick up on the streets and in the
slums. The training will be given in a
practical manner, they boys being taught
to work for what will be given them, and
the school will be on farm short dis
tance from New York.
The Industrial Colony association is
the name of this organization. The idea
is to incorporate in it many features
which have been so successful in the
George Junior republic the Summer
camp and Industrial farm and similar
movements Officers and board of di-
rectors have just been elected, and a
ladies' auxiliary has been formed. An
advisory board has looked carefully INFO
the proposed plans and has given them
its hearty approval. They are the Rev.
Drs. Howard Duffield, Abbott E. Kit
tredge, w. S. Rainsford and Robert S.
Macarthur, John Graham Brooks and
Miss A. NJ .Feilde.
A ladies' auxiliary has recently been
organized.
"A
obtain a suitable farm within two or four
hours railway journey from the city.
NO attempt will be made this first year
to care for large number OF boys.
Probably thirty or forty boys will be
taken. leaving the city the first week in
July. and remaining in the country for
two months.
1t is proposed to let the boys conduct
their own government under the guild
ance of the superintendent The boys
will elect their own legislative and ex-
ecutve officers, choose their own police
force and appoint their own judges.
They will be expected to do this with as
much seriousness and honesty as If they
were men conducting real government.
While the boys are to be free to conduct
their own affairs as citizens of a colony,
they will be amenable to the higher au-
tnority. and will not exercise the full
privileges of independent citizens until
their qualifications shall entitle them to
the full suffrage, the right to vote being
based on attainments and not on age.
There will be instructions in farming,
carpentry and other practical branches.
The boys will be expected to work, for
which they will be paid in the currency
of the colony The Industrious boy will
| earn enough to live comfortably, while
| the lazy boy will get but little. Meals,
| lodging and clothing must be paid for,
! and he who does not work will be unable
to buy food or clothing or pay for lodg-
| ing. This forces the boys to work and
inculcates industry, regularity and
| thrift.-New York Times.

as those on the whorl found in Colombia
The discovery of these crosses on diff
ferent articles, all of which were made
before Christ was born, in Mexico, the
United States, South America and an
cient Egypt, show to the mind of the
archeologist that while the cross is
truly symbolic of Christianity it, at the
same time, was most assuredly relig
ious emblem before the Son of Man was
ever heard of.
The question of the origin of the cross
has been quietly argued for some time
past, it being held that the discoveries
previous to the revelations made by
Professor Mercer indicated plainly that
instead of the use of the cross as SYM
bolic being coincident with the birth of
the Savior, it was held to denote sa
cred thought and belief during period
so long ago that the known history of
mankind does not touch upon it, Prof.
Thomas Wilson, of the Smithsonian Ing
stitution. who has made this matter a
study, finds ample evidence for the be-
lief quoted, and declares it to be beyond
question that the Christian symbol is
really borrowed from the ancients.

New Zealand is frequently pointed
out as happy and prosperous country,
yet New Zealand is governed by laws
which older governments think work
ruin and disaster if applied to them. To
begin, the personal property tax has
been abolished. In it's place are a land
tax and an income tax, each Of which
is progressive, it's rate increasing as the
amount of landed estate and income in
crease. The public lands of the govern
ment, or crown lands, as they are called,
are not sold. They are merely leased in
perpetnity. The lease can be transferred
from one holder to another as If the
land was owned in fee simple. At regu-
lar intervals Of time the leases are re-
vised by the authorities and their
amount increased or diminished, as may
be required. Members Of the upper
house of parliament do not hold office
for life, as French senators and British
lords do, but for seven years. Finally
woman suffrage has been adopted, ano
an industrial arbitration law has beer
passed.
