Translation of the Bible into Philip
pine dialects is going on under the
joint supervision of the Bible societies
of this country and England. Trans
latons thus far completed are St. Luke
in Bicol, and the Acts and ST. Mat
thew in Tagalog. These belong to the
British and Foreign Bible Society,
which had, when Admiral Dewey took
Manila, ten thousand copies of the
Acts of the Apostles, in Tagalog, lying
in bond in Hongkong. They had lain
there for a dozen years, the Spanish
government not permitting Protestant
Bible agencies to enter the Philippines.
The battle of Manila Bay effected,
among much else, the release of these
copies of the Acts. The book of st.
Luke has since been translated into
Pampanga, Mr.. Leon GambOa making
the translation and receiving therefor
the sum of $50, including reVisionS. He
has just completed st. Mark in the
same tongue, which is spoken in the
province north of Manila. IlocanO is
the dialect of northern LuZon. Some
years ago Filipinos translated St. Luke
into this dialect, and the British soci-
ETY. published it. Later the American
Society revised it, and have had st.
Mark translated. Prof Ygnacio Villa
NOR, probably the best living Ilocano
scholar, has recently finished transla-
tiQns of ST. Matthew and st. John.
TRANSACTIONS into two additional dia-
lects will it is claimed, make it posi-
BILE for missionaries and others to be
supplied with Bibles that can be read
by all educated Filipnos. These two
are Visayan de Iloilo and Visayan de
Cebu. The American Bible Society is
employing the Rev, Eric Lund to make
translation of the New Testament
into Nisayan de IloilO, and Chaplain
Sutherland the Gospel of st. Luke into
Visayan de Cebu. These two Nisayan
dialects cover practically all of the
southern islands of the Philippines.
Copies of the first editions in Ilocano
and Pampanga have been mailed from
Manila, but have not yet reached THIS
country. 1t is interesting to know that
these translations are made from Eng
lish or Spanish, and that it is only
when the native churches get large and
strong that attempts are made to trans
late and revise from the original Greek
and Hebrew. Early editions are not
large in number or elaborate in style,
since it is always found that reVisions
have almost Immediately to be made.
A few days since some alleged facts
about Bible translations in the Philip
pines were sent out from Cincinnati.
These the American Bible Society
| agents say were quite misleading. No
vast sum of money is required for these
translations, and no great time will
elapse before all Filipinos will be pro-
vided with the Scriptures which they
can read in their own languages. In
making translations the Gospels are
generally done first, then the Acts and
Epistles, and the Psalms and the Prov
cribs generally come next. The last
named are always found especially
| helpful, missionaries findir their
worldly wisdom to be understood
readily.-Hartford Times.

nence. Corregidor, says the New
York Herald, was a Spanish explorer
and was buried on the island, where a
handsome tomb had been erected to
his memory.
When the Spanish surrendered Cor
regidor island to the Americans a
company of soldiers and hospital men
were sent there to establish a hos
pital. While in Manila the soldiers had
heard many stories of the CorregidOr
tomb One of the stories given out
was that a vast amount of jewelry
and money had been stored away in
the tomb.
As soon as the American soldiers
landed on the island they at once tore
their way into the monument, but
failed TO find anything of value. \
rust-eaten sword and a few trinkets
were all that was found.

REV. CAMPBELL MORGAN.
English Preacher Who VIII Carry

just Arrived in America.

Rev. DR.. G.. Campbell Morgan, Of
London, who has just arrived in Amer
lea to take the place of Dwight L.
Moody in the American field of evan
gelism, was until lately the pastor Of
the New Court Congregational church,
one of the most successful churches in
all the United Kingdom. Dr. Morgan
is IS years old. His father was a Bap-
list minister of Gloucestershire, and
his mother the daughter of a Baptist
deacon. The son thus came naturally
into the ministry. He began TO speaE
in religious meetings when he was IS
years old. In all, he has been preach
ing 25 years. His first pastorate was

missionerS. In lS6S he became as.
sistant foreman. Subsequently he
was captain of No. g. which mCged TO
Maxwell and Canal streets. His COM
pany was the first TO begin fighting
Lhe great fire of 1871.
IL. \. Williams was then chief, John
Schuur first, Lorenz Walters second,
and Matt Benner third assistant
marshal, and the city had but L en-
gines, three of which were out of
service.
March l, 1872, Musham was made
third assistant marshal for his brav-
cry during the great fire. In 1879,
when Swenie was made chief, he was
appointed first assistant.
Although the hero of countless
close calls. Musham has never had a
bone broken. From a height of 24O
feet he fought the fire in the Manu-
faCtures building at the worlds fair,
and in the basement of the Edelweiss
cafe, where Big Tom," of truck No.
g. was stripped naked by an eXplo-
sion Musham's most brilliant bit of
fire fighting was at the Manufactures
building al the worlds fair. and it
-yas widely heralded at the time.
But Musham generously gave the
praise TO Battalion Chief Kenyon,
Capts. Foley, of No. ); Lucy, of No.
-; Crapo, of No. -: McKiernan, of
No. u, and Palmer, of truck No. 20.
At a fire in a commission house on
South Water street in June, 1855,
Alusham stood between two firemen
when they were killed instantly by
falling debris. He was swept into
the river by a strong wind at the
5. K. Martin lumber yard fire in 1894
when Lieut.. McGinn, of the freboat
was blown on live Goals and burned
20 death.
August 5, 1897, he was severely in
jured at the fire and explosion in the
Northwestern elevator. Six were
killed there-Tommy Monohan, Swe.
MES driver, Coogan, Sehnur and
Strumen, of No. 3, Conway. of No. 27
and Hanley, of No. 5. Fifty men were
injured. Musham saved 80 lives by
moving two freboats in time to pre-
vent them from being destroyed.
John Campion, who will succeed
Musham as 6rst assistant marshal
was born in Kilkenny in 1s49, aul
came to Chicago in 1854. He Joined
the fire department April l, 1870

Age of sixteen.

William II. Musham, the veteran
-fre fighter of more than 40 years, is
Chicago's new chief of the fire de-
partment. Mayor Harrison appoint
ed him d. J. Swenie's successor June
-, aud the council speedily ratified
the selection. The bond of S25, 900
was accepted, and First Assistant
Marshal Musham became fire mar
shall and chief OF brigade" immedi-
ately
simultaneously the resignation of
Chief Swenie was read, his half a
century of service acknowledged and
the thanks of the city of Chicago ten
dered officially by the mayor as the
representative of the people. That
was Chief Swenie's formal "good-by'
and the beginning of Chief Musham's
term.
William Henry Musham was born
of Scotch-Irish parents in Chicago,
February :, 1889. and is a carpenter
by trade. At the age of 16 he became
a volunteer fireman and ran TO the
fires with d. j. Swenie and others,
many Of whom are prominent in pro-
iessional and commercial circles to-
day. He worked at the great Lake
street fire of 1857, where seven fire.
men and 10 citizens perished and
Swenie recovered the bodies.
IN 1861 he joined the paid fire de-
partment organized by Swenie in
1855. He became a member of No. 6.

en- a. Douglas. The company's house
was at Washington and Dearborn

Prof. James Dewar Secures Jar of
Liquid Hydrogen.
Enters New Realm and Makes
Liquid Air Seem HOt-Wiu Next
Attempt to Reduce HeIium-
Record of His Life.

1t is a genuine pleasure to discuss
| the triumph of science over nature
as recorded in interesting words Of
the experiments of the Royal society
of London.
1t is sufficiently wonderful to say
that Prof. James Dewar carried in a
jar through the streets of London to
his lecture-rOOm nearly two quarts
of liquid hyrOgen, which until then
was the most intangible form of mat
ter known to man. On arriving be-
fore his audience this wizard of sci
ence, who deals with temperatures
compared with which arctic cold is
like a seething furnace, produced
marvels never witnessed outside Of
his own laboratory.
He reduced hydrogen to a solid
which appeared like snow in the test
tube and announced that a temper
ature had been produced eight de-
grees or ten degrees lower, or within
nine degrees of absolute zero. There
is one substance only now known
which has as yet not been reduced
to liquid, and that is the new gas
helium. This most volatile form of
matter has a boiling point four de-
grees or five degrees above absolute
zero. The hope of being able to
liquefy helium depends on subjecting
it to the same process as has sue
ceeded with hydrogen, only instead
of using liquid air under exhaustion
as the primary cooling agent, liquid
hydrogen under exhaustion must be
employed, and the resulting liquid
collected in vacuum vessels surround
.. ed with liquid hydrogen. In this
way, by the use of liquid or solid
hydrogen as a cooling agent, we
ought to be able to liquefy a body
jhaving a critical point of about six
degrees to eight degrees of absolute
zero and a boiling point of four de-
grees or five degrees. Then, if liquid

helium could be produced, this sub
stance would not enable US to reach
the zero of temperature.
Another gas must be found as
much more volatile than helium as
helium was than hydrogen in order
If a helium group comprised sub
stance having an atomic weight of
one-half that of helium such a gas
would bring us nearer the desired
goal. Meantime the production of
liquid helium is a difficult and eXpen-
sive enough problem TO occupy the
scientific world for many day.
In conclusion Prof Dewar showed
how the crystal nitrate of uranium,
when placed in liquid hydrogen, be-
came for a time self-luminous on ac-
count of the high electric stimulation
brought about by cooling causing
actual electric discharges between
the crystal molecules. When cooled
the crystal was removed from the

Prof. James Dewar, whose recent
remarkable experiments with liquid
hydrogen are here described was
really the inventor of that mystic
rious quantity. He began his re-
searches in the Hquefaction of air in
1874. Since then he has written and
read before the Royal Institution of
Great Britain more than so papers,
giving the result of his investiga-
tions and experiments. He con-
quered liquid air, iquefied hydrogen
and he now expects to reduce helium,
the most volatile substance known.

CORREGIDOR'S TOMB.
Historical Spot In the Philippines

When Dewey's squadron entered Ma

the first shot fired at him came from
Corregidor island, at the entrance to
the harbor This island. because of
its strategical position, has gone down

how it got its name.

as that in which it has been assigned
by naturalists-the family of rodents.
They are about twice the size of or
dinary mice and bear almost no re-
semblance to them. Perched on an
absurd-looking stilt-like pair of legs,
with a body shaped like that of an
ostrich, n head like a deer, and eyes
like an owl. the kangaroo mouse ven
lures from its nest only in the night.
Nature intended this odd creature
should work unobserved in the dark
ness. and, to that end, built it for
utility rather than looks.
In the deserts of Egypt the DER
boas Dipus lives on insects and the
scant vegetation Of that region. 1t
does not eat much, but to satisfy its
hunger this desert mouse often has
to travel great distances. The energy
which it eXpends in travel, as com.
pared with the amount il eats, is
shown by the contrast between the
hind and forelegs of the kangaroo
mouse. The hind legs are strong out
of all proportion with the size of the
animal. These legs, with an unusu-
ally long and powerful tail, are the
only means of locomotion used by
this animal The fore legs, which are
used only at meal time, are so small
as to be unnoticed when the animal
holds them close under his chin, as
it usually does.
The kangaroo mouse, says the Chi
cago Tribune. Notwithstanding its
weird appearance and hermit-lille
training, is an attractive and friendly
animal It is scrupulously neat, and
will not fail to wash its face before
eating when an opportunity to do Sc
IS given it. The Djerboas Dipus is
harmless. it never bites, and has only
one fauIt-it eats with the nervous
haste of an habitual lunch counter
patron.

pits until in 1898 he was called to Bir-
mingham TO take charge Of the West
Minister Congregational church in that
city. Here he met Dwight L. Moody,
who induced him to pay visit to the
Moody schools at Mortified, Mass.
Dr. Morgan was deeply impressed at
that time with the work being done
by the famous American, and he never
forgot the lesson he then learned. In
1896 he went to the New Court church
in London, where he has been very sue
