The eagle, whose wings measured
eightfeet from tip to tip, had previously
visited the barnyard and carried off one
of the farmers sheep and had returned
for more mutton when Berry happened
to be around with a gun handy.
Berry's first shot knocked the big
bird over and thinking the eagle was
dead he ran to secure his prize. That
was where Farmer Berry made a great
mistake. No sooner had be touched
the bird than it rose upon him, clawing
and pecking fercely at his eyes and face
and finally sinking its talons deep into
the flesh of his arm. so that. although
more than willing to call it draw, he
could not get out of the ing.
For half an hour Berry stood the
pecking and clawing and gouging and
the fearful beating of the eagles wings
and then backing up to a fence he man
aged TO get hold of a club with which
he killed the bird.
The eagle was mounted by a Bangor
taXidermist and sold TO a Milwaukee
man. who placed it in museum.
Eagles are common in the eastern and
northern parts of Maine and when at
tackled are very fierce.

One of the most interesting monu-
ments of ancient Christianity in China
is the HISTORIAN tablet or Syro-Chinese
monument which stands one mile out
side the gate of Singanfu in Shen-si.
The story it tells is that OF the fortunes
of the HISTORIAN mission in China be
tween the years G36 and TSl. 1t sets
forth the dogmas of Christianity. re-
cords the history of Christian effort in
China, and adds a Sort of metrical
thanksgiving to God and to the Emper-
ors who favored the Christian cause.
All trace of the mission has vanished
except only this monument 1t
was unearthed in 1923. The Syriac
characters composing the signatures of
OIopim and his associates add to its
interest. In 1859 a Cbinaman rebuilt
the tablet into the brick wall where it
had once stood outside the city. The
material is a coarse marble. a consid-
cradle controversy has ragged round this
interesting relic. bit the weight Of evi-
dence now inclincs towards the conclu-
sion that it is genuine.

| CO HE Pan-American Exposition is
the first great public event of the
| a Twentieth Century Its domi-
nant purpose is to illustrate progress
during the century just closed and lay
a, strong and enduring foundation for
| international. commercial and social
unity in the New World. In several re-
spects the Exposition outriyals all for
mer enterprises Of its character. The
most important of these are the artistic
! color decorations of the buildings, the
| electrical effects, the original sculpture,
the hydraulic and fountain effects, the
horticultural and floral effects, and the
court settings.
The electrical display will be the most
complete ever made, the nearness to
the Exposition grounds of the great
plants which have LarnesSed Niagara
and put its tremendous power to com
mercial use, making this possible. A
Steel Electric Tower, an Electric Foun-
tain and the Court of Fountains furnish
opportunities for extraordinary out
door displays Of electrical wonders.
About half a million incandescent
lamps and one hundred searchlights are
used in the illumination.
The decorative lighting of the build
ings takes advantage of the many
handsome designs in staff and brings
them out with translucent effects or
outlined with points of light. Advant-
age is also taken of the numerous tow
ers, turrets aud domes to produce a
starry effect
Sculpture is used in the adornment
of the Court OF Fountains, the Tri-
umphal Bridge, the Esplanade, the
Plaza, the Electric Tower, the Bridge
| of the Three Americas, entrances to
buildings. and in many other ways,
there being upward of 125 original
groups of statuary, by Karl Bitter and
other sculptors of world repute. Over
500 pieces are used. The plastic orna-
mentation of the buildings is very in
tricate and beautiful. All the buildings
\ are covered with staff, which is mould
ed into thousands of beautiful and fan
ciful shapes. The display Of original
sculpture is the most magnificent ever
used for decorative purposes at any OK
position. Never before at any exposi-
ton has an effort succeeded to produce
harmonious color scheme. All Of the

great buildings are decorated IN mar
moniouS tints, and the effect is very
beautiful.
The centerpiece of tie Exposition IS
an Electric Tower 400 feet high, upon
and about which will be an electrlcal
display surprising any ever yet at
tempted. More than 10000 lamps ana
searchlight with 30-inch protector
capable of casting rays for distance OF
fifty miles. will be used in the lllumlna-
ton of this tower.
There are more than thirty-three
acres of beautiful courts. There are IN
all the courts large pools OF water INTO
which hundreds of fountains will throw
their sparkling streams. NeveR before
has such a work been undertaken upon
so grand a scale.
The united efforts of the builders OF
the Exposition have produced harmo-
NOUS, artistic and brilliant ensemble
and the Exposition presents a most
beautiful spectacle.
In all the exhibit divisions the Pan
American Exposition will be very COM
plete. 1t is the aim of the Exposition
to show the progress Of the Nineteenth
Century in the Western World. The
exhibits will be gathered from all the
principal States and countries of the
Western Hemisphere and the new isl
! and possessions of the United States
government. Special efforts are being
made to bring together exhibits of eX-
ceptional novelty and of the highest
educational value.
The Exposition grounds are in the
northern part of Buffalo, adjacent to
the large and beautiful Delaware Park.
They are about one mile in length from
north to south, and half mile wide.
There are $50 acres, including 1873 acres
of improved park lands and lakes. A
pleasing first impression is sure to be
obtained by the visitor, no matter by
! which way he enters the Exposition
| grounds. The situation of the grounds
and the manner in which they have
been laid out, render possible the at
tainment of this end.
The gates open on May LIST, and the
Exposition will continue six months
1t is estimated that the total cost of
the Exposition, exclusive of exhibits
but including the Midway, will be
| about $10,000,000.
