SURVEYING ANACosTIA FLATS.
Col. Allen Reports on Recent Opera
tiOns.

Gel. Allen of the Engineer Corps, who has
charge of the work of surveying the Ana
costa river. with a view to it's improve
ment by the reclamation of the flats, has
made a report to the chief of engineers
detailing the progress of the field work of
the survey. He says that the survey of
the section between the line of the pro-
poseC Massachusetts avenue bridge and
BeE-ing bridge has been completed, in
cluding the photography, levels on the
fats, location of shore line and topography.
The survey of the section between Ben
niEg bridge and the District line has been
in progress for the past month. and the
Eydrography and levels on the flats and
n arshes are completed for a distance of
about 1903 feet above Benning bridge. The
taking of levels across the marshes, Col.
Allen says, proves to be even more difficult
than was the case below Benning bridge,
owing TO the soft nature of the soil, which
can hardly be tlaversed without sinking.

the Jews, who refuse Revelation are

brief sentence, alluded to the theory
which believes that there is good in
man, which is the rudiment of a natur-

Or, and the antagonistic theory which
holds that man is totally depraved, and
carries one hundred per cent of satura-
ton in sin and iniquity. When ortho-
doX teachers put into the hands of
young men the life of Socrates, they
weaken the theory of total depravity,
and lead them TO believe that there is
good deal in the natural religion
that has a very serious bearing on
mans nature, and that it has a great
and a divinely appointed part to play
in the elevation of the race.
These questions, raised by Dr. Hyde,
have been threshed out by the theolo-
gians for centuries. and are not set
tied yet.
One of the troubles with the laymen
is, that the divinity students who are
graduated from the schools of Andover,
New Haven and Princeton are unset
tied in their opinions about very many
important points regarding the true
relations of man to his Creator, and
the layman. like the bear in Macbeth,
is tied to the stake and must fight his
course alone" This view does not in
any way derogate from the work and
mission of Revealed religion.-THE

the largest dredging apparatus in the

becomes apparent if it is considered
that il Will take six railway trains Of
fifty cars each to carry away the ma
terial raised by the dredge in one hour.
The dredge is built on the suction
principle, and rests upon a hulk 21O
feet long by SO feet wide. It is pro-
yided with two independent cenrif-
ugal pumps which, by means of fleX-
ible pipe. can be made to work as much
as forty feet below water level. Back
OF the dredge there is a reservoir with
capacity Of about $1,000 tons. For
the propulsion Of the dredge there are
two screws, giving the giant machine

engines are of /, 250 horsepower each,
and when not driving the boat are

Queen Louise of Denmark, who died

her numerous royal and imperial sons
in-law and daughters-in-law, among

of Sweden and Norway (who married
Prince Frederik, heir apparent of Den

George of Greece. Queen Louise was
the daughter of the impoverished
Landgrave William of Hesse-Cassel,
and in 1912, she married Prince Christ

The history of the Protestant mission

time has not come for the discussion
of the matter. In secular history it Is

Much less can he write about the CO.

For whatever view he may take, he
will be fiercely combatted by those
who entertain Otner views.
In stating that il would have been
wise to have taught the natives the
principles of natural religion, we had
in mind that God endowed men with
a natural religion long before he per-
mitted any revealed religion to reach
them. so that in the order of evolu-
ton a natural religion had its proper
and necessary place. We had in mind
these words of the Roman Emperor
Aurelius Antoninus, pagan and
worshipper of many gods:

Roman and a man to do what thou

dignity. and feeling OF affection. and
freedom, and justice. and 10 give thy
self relief from all other thoughts
And thou wilt give thyself relief il

it were the last.
These words express generally the

has put in every human heart, but
which the creeds have persistently
ignored. Aside from teaching the
