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-sl.
The story 1t tells is that of the fortunes
of the HISTORIAN mission in China be
tween the years 636 and Isl. 1t sets
forth the dogmas of Christianity, re
cords the history of Christian effortsin
China. and adds 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 1925. The Syriac
characters composing the signatures of

interest. In 1859 Chinaman rebuilt

The eyes of some OF the political,
prophets at Washington are on Senator
John G. Spooner. of Wisconsin. They
think he is good presidential timber
and has an excellent chance of being
nominated in 1904. Spooner is an in
teresting figure. He Is small of stature,
quick and fiery in debate and one of the
most independent men in the Senate,
says a Washington writer. Nobody
controls Spooner but himself. He has
been the ablest and most eloquent de-
fender of the present administration in
the great crisis of the last few years
and at the same time has shown the
mi 7endence. He threw down
the It TO Senator Hanna and re-
fused to regard the ship subsidy bill as
party measure.
Spooner is called the little CLINT of
debate in the Senate. He does not
speak often. He is reserved for emer-
gencies and when he speaks there is a
full Senate to hear him. He has all the
attributes of the orator, and, coupled
with these, all the methods OF q great

most inyulnerable debater In the Sen.
