PAID SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS.

PAID SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS,
The Rev. Henry Mottet. rector Of the
Church of the Holy Communion, at
Twentieth street and Sixth avenue, in
Manhattan, Is convinced that the quail
ity of instruction in the Sunday schools
is not satisfactory He has asked for
an endowment fund Of 100000. the in
come from which is to be used to pay
properly qualified teachers for their
services. Mr.. Mottet holds that the
foundation on which all education that
develops character must be, built is
spiritual, thatspiritual education should
begin in the earliest period OF a chld's
life, that it is the duty of the church
to give the highest training and, there
FORE the church should have properly
equipped teachers in the Sunday
schools.
Mr.. Mottets notion is interesting,
and not without merit. Undoubtedly
much of the teaching In Sunday schools
needs improvement, and possibly the
improvement could be made with mon
ey. Money will buy many things. It
would buy the services in Sunday
schools of those well acquainted with
the bible and the "higher criti-
cism" thereof. And it might possibly
buy as much devoutness as much of
the money spent for preaching, buys
Indeed, 1t might buy the services of
unattached ministers and thus help to
solve a great and pressing problem.

Phya Kishudda, the Siamese minis
ter to the United States, has given TO
the National Museum at Washington a
model of the famous Wat Chang Pag-
oda. Wat Chang means great monas-
terry, and this particular pagoda, ac-
cording to Mr.. Cozanowicz, who has
devoted to religious matters, is consid-
cred by far the most magnificent edifice
in Bangkok. 1t is built of brick; the
outside plastering is wrought into a
handsome mosaic by the use of many
colored porcelains set in the forms of
demons griffins, elephants and flowers,
and the whole building is most lavishlv
adorned both with color and carving.
The huge bell shaped structure rises
from its broad octagonal base in ele-
CANT, tapering towers, ending in a
dome which supports sharp spire. In
great inches upon the sides and near
the summit are images of Buddha rid
ing on elephants. The main building is
topped by lesser pagodas shrines, resi-
dences for the monks, ponds, grottoes,
flower and fruit gardens and statues OF
massive stone. From the tip OF the
spire to the base the whole measure
about two hundred and fifty feet Not

Admiral Makaroff, who planned the
Russian ice-breaking steamship, re-
Gently told the members of the British
Association for the Advancement of
Science, that the future would see the
navigation of the Arctic and Antarctic,
even perhaps to the Poles, in ships like
the Ermak. His own narrative Of the
voyage of the Ermak last summer
showed that the vessel made thirty
miles through the ice on the first day
and was only stopped by fourteen feet
of 1t, into which she ran on the fourth
day. The best speed made in foes
and fields of that depth was two miles
in four hours. Admiral Makaroff says
that after that experiment he came to
the conclusion that the Ernak could
be made much stronger. The theory
of Admiral Makarof is that 1t will be
comparatively easy to break even the
poleocrystic ice of the circumpoar re-
gion by mechanical means

THE GOLD DlGG5RS
Have Recently Been Carrying Things
 Away in Spring Wagon

The strangers, who continue their digrieg io the bed of the old Hard ing Las- he foot Gf Missouri street as city have ondouotedly Y struck i rtch, or thetr peculiar ac- tions in toe vicinity of the diggings for the past few nights nave cer- tainiy deceived those who, just for curiosity sake, have kept a constant watch on them from 9 nearby resi- dence.
 Thursday night the three white men, who are interested in the mine were seen holding a conversation at the side Of the large hole they dug and soon afterwards a well dressed negro drove up with a spring wagon. After a further con- sultatiop, something was loaded on the wagon and all four of the men, and the negro woman, who has been at the digglngs since the first spade was placed into the earth, entered the wagon and drove Southward, later disappearlng in the darkness. Many who have studied the diggings since the work begun, state that the men were not digging for ship that was sunk in that vicinity dur. ing the Civil war, but aa old chest that was supposed to have been carried from a ship at that period and buried for safe keeping.

A SWEET THING
Thrown at a Restaurant Cook by a
 Memphis Drummer.

A prominent Memphis drnmmer went into the Arlington hotel cafe Thursday afternoon to enjoy a lunch. He sat down, so we are told and after waitiL5 quite awhile for the meal, he became very impatient and told the co1k, who is a white man, to get a move on him. The cook, retorted in hot words, and a quarrel was the result.
 The discussion grew so very warm that the drummer picked np the sugar bowl and threw it at the took's head. The cook was very fortunate however and dodged the missile and escaped unhurt.
 The gent who did the throwing, was pulled and paid five dollars for his behaYlor. aft an .aes%a

The tongues of the cat family are covered with recurving spines. In the common domestic cat these are small, but sufficiently we'll developed to give the tongue feeling of roughness. But in the lion and tiger the spines are strong enough to enable the animal to tear away the skin of mans hand merely by licking it.
