no admission OF the validity OF the

province in connection with the sup

Murat, and schemes have been set on

tober 13, 1873, in the castle Of that city.
The common burial place was opened
after due precautions had been taken
by the sanitary authorities, but no pos
tive result could be arrived at, as it was
found that the bury ing place in the
vaults Of the church had been flied
with the bodies Of victims of the
cholera epidemic Of 1887, and that it
was impossible 10 distinguish the body
of a king from those Of persons subse-
quently inferred. The researches have
therefore been suspended, the vaults

VARYING VIEWS.
What Work or Event of the Century
Is Most Important ?

\ Berlin paper opened a wide and
interesting field for discussion by ask
ing, What work, or what event, of the
nineteenth century is of the most i'm
portance?"
In Germany, very naturally, the most
answers favor the foundation Of the
German empire by Bismarck. Next in
order of numbers come those who be-
lieve that the Darwinian theory is the
most important contribution to the
worlds knowledge and is entitled To
occupy first place. Then opinions take
on many hues, some standing up for
the discovery of chlorOform and others
for some particular discovery in the
field of astronomy.
Along a line entirely distinct is the
suggestion of a Mrs Suttner,who votes
for the czar's manifesto, while her hus-
band, who must he a shallow -pated
man. suggests the Dreyfus affair. Many
women consider the woman move
ment" in general the most important
development OF the century, which is
not so bad.
We are most surprised that the COM
mercial use Of electricity did not re-
ceive precedence. II is of more im-
portance to humanity than the unifica-
ton of Germany, which may not be at
all permanent, or the Darwinian the
ory which, as a well-established theory,
is still rejected by some able scientists.
But the field is open for guesswork
and people with hobbies will favor their
hobbies

At the regular meeting Of Washing
ton camp, No. lis, Fatristic order Sons
of America, last evening, the members
were addressed by d. w. Phillips, cx-
district president of the order, on THE
Life and Character of Abraham Lin
coin"
During the course Of his remarks the
speaker said February is a most
fortunate month so far as birthdays
are concerned. For 1t was in this
month that the two grahdest men in
American history We're born-charaC-
ters that stand out in bold relief from
the rest of the insignificant personagcs
that surround them.
Abraham Lincoln was born on the
18th of February, 1909 The first seven
years of his life were spent on Rock
Spring farm in Hardin county, Ken
tucky.
Character is the mirror that cXhib-
its mans true life ana his flag of de-
fense in times of public opinion. SO 1t is
with delicacy that | reflect on the
character of the illustruus Abraham
Lincoln, the redeemer OF our country.
The predominating elements of Lin
coins peculiar character were: First,
his great capacity and power of rea-
son; secondly, his excellent under
standing; thirdly. his exalted idea Of
the sense of right and equity; fourthly,
his intense Veneration for what was
good and noble.
II know it is generally believed thai
Llncoln's heart, his love and Kindness,
his tenderness and benevolence, were
his ruling qualities: but this is an er-
rCncouS idea in every particular, He
lived, breathed and acted from the
throne Of logic, the place Of principle
and deity in man.
From this point Lincoln's life must
be viewed; his views were correct and
original.
"As Washington stands alone in his
tory for freedom, so stands Abraham
Lincoln for humanity, and on his brow
the world has placed such IN immort-
ellie for his human heart by stroke of
pen make millions of property men"
The next address will be given by j.
Archie Jones some time next month.
