ST. PAUL AND ITS AMERICAN
LAMPS,
You all know something Of the Won
ders Of ST. Paul's cathedral. 1t Is one
Of the largest churches Of the world
and In many respects the most beau
tiful. Many OF you have visited II, but
] doubt II you have seen the vast struc-
ture as l saw It the other day lighted
with the wonderful electric lights In the
beautiful fixtures presented to the
church by an American trust magnate.
Pierpont Morgan has furnished the
money which enables the English TO see
the glorles OF their greatest church,
whether the city In which 1t stands Is
shrouddi In fog or not.
/ can't describe the beauty of the
church under the soft lights of these
lamps, Il looks far better than IN the
brightest sunshine. The church author
tiles told Mr. Morgan that they could
not afford TO put In this electricity and
he thereupon offered TO do It for them.
He took $4,000 out OF his left breeches
pocket and planked 1t down on the pull
pit and toN them TO so ahead. At any
rate that is what IT, cost at the start,
The fixtures are modelled afer the or
iginal lamps designed by Sir Christie
pher Wren and they are In perfect har-
mony with their surroundings. Some Of
the most beautiful of them are In the
choir just beyond the dome They are
great chandeliers of gold hanging from
the roof, which is hundreds OF <et
higher up. Each chandelier has six
lamps, but the rays are filtered through
frosted glass and they give the effect
OF bright moonlight.

day IN Englans made n million dol
lars for some Americans who brought
into England the Yankee system of
selling books through the newspapers.
| When they first proposed the selling OF
the encyclopaedia in this way to the

at them. At last, however they inter-

None Of the great authors Of the past
made anything to compare with the au =
thors Of the present. Oliver Goldsmith
died deeply In debt at 46, and during
the best part of his life he did not
make more than $1,000 a year. All his
literary earnings were hardly as great
as the price that Scribners paid Barrie
for Sentimental Tommy" and still
Goldsmith wrote some OF the best selling
books OF the English language. II is
said that he was the author OF "Goody
TWO Shoes" and large part Of the or
iglnal Mother Goose, which were pub
llshed by John Newbery whose shops
were just outside Of ST. Paul's church,
yard. Newbery was the first publisher
of books for children and thereby the
father OF the enormous business which
is now done in such books in the Anglo
Saxon world,
Speaking Of Pierpont Morgan, he is
looked upon here as the Croesus OF the
twentieth century. The old painting
for which he paid 100000 is now on
view in the national gallery He will

Labor Council at once to arrange, if
possible, that the committee of the
committee of the Exchange may attend
the meeting of that body to be held
this evening there to listen to the dis
cussion and receive any light that may
be had on the subject. This was pass
ed, and there seems no reason to be-
lieve that there will be any refusal on
the part of the representatives of the
union, as the scope of the inquiry of
the Exchange seems to cover all the
points that may be raised in objection
by the organized labor men of the city.
There is much interest in the meet
ing of this evening. Mr. Victor S.
Clark, the representative of the Labor
Bureau of the United States, who is
now here investigating conditions.
wants to be present at the meeting
that he may be able to add the feeling

this will be granted.

Rev. John osborne suggested that the

Upon motion of Rev. Mr.. osborne the
following committee was named to
raise fund for the purchase of a
house: L. Tenney Peck, T. Give Davies,
H M Won Holt and Major Davis. All
members voted yes on this resolution
excepting Mr.. Tesla.
Rev Canon Ault asked if it was not
possible that the fund subscribed as a
guarantee could not be put into the
house fund. To this Rev. Canon Kitcat
demurred, saying that there had been
an agreement entered into with the gen
eral convention to which the present
blSuop was iiol pe'l ", anu "HiNH
should be kept as far from Bishop
Restarick as possible. He said the
Bishop should not be drawn into the
, matter, but that the agreement made
by the guarantors was binding and
should be kept.
Rev. John osborne said it was not
his impression that the guarantee was
to be thrown upon the parish.
Mr.. Give Davies said he had no idea
of Sinking his responsibilities but that
he understood that as soon as the do
cese was organized, a finance commit
tee would undertake the work of rais-
ing the guarantee fund, and relieve the
eleven signers to the guarantee, they
only to make up the balance. He
quoted from the signed agreement, to
show that was what had been intended.
Mr. Davies suggested that it would
probably be interesting to learn what
had become of the document. He had
always thought these matters were be-
know how the reports had come out.
Bishop Restarick finally ended the
discussion with the statement that
nothing had ever been said to him
about such fund or guarantee and
that the parties interested should cor
respond with the persons to whom the
guarantee had been given, and consult
their wishes.
The convocation was closed with a
!, brief address from the bishop in which
he thanked the members of the council
i saying that he had never had any fears
as to his visit to Honolulu, and was
much pleased at the spirit of unity and
earnestness encountered in the council

An Irrigation Farm Colony.

1T is more than four years since this
line between Colorado and Texas-was
started. with about sixteen families and
nearly 100 men. women: and C children: il'i It
perhaps 300 people altogether Under
the successful irrigation system In use.
that M mia Climate. m several % crops each Year
may be taken from the rich soil. With
intensive cultivation: twenty-acre farm
is fully large enough to keep one family
well employed and to support it in great
comfort. 1t required the Investment OF
a large amount OF cash for the Salvation
Army to launch an experiment OF this
kind: hut. SO far as the colonists them
selves are concerned. It is in no sense q
on the farm that he buys. and upon the
other materials provided; and he PAYS
back the principal in annual installments.
We have been permitted to examine the
balance sheets for successive periods. and
it Is evident that the Amity colony Is go
ing to be complete eoi,n. financial sS success; 81
well that they are not only making cur
rent ynE fT their families but t9sy
factorily. a number of them are making
payments far in excess Of what is due.
and thus cutting Off interest charges.
The smallness of the farms enables the
people to meet one another frequently
and to enjoy pleasant social life. The
school house-located in the very center
of the colony-is. in several senses. the
nefghborhood focus. The community is
in high favor throughout its region. Ii
IS becoming an lltclltGluai, as Weli as u
moral ana religious. center for the coun.
trysde at large: and IT is already taking
ods of agriculture. There is no rule that
requires the colonfsts 20 be members OF
the Salvation Army. although that or.
ganization is naturally the foremost in
the religious life of the colony. While CO.
operative methods prevail, to the great
advantage of all, this neighborhood must
not be COMPOUNDED with communistic en-
terprses; for it rests upon the very on
poste principle. Each member of the
community Is an indenendent landowner,
who has purchased his farm from an
organization that has advanced the cap
neignbors; and that has given him the ass
surance of good schools and pleasant
years his farm wilt have been paid for:
and with its fruit trees and flowers and
its varied and luxuriant crops it will have
become a veritabe little paradise.-Ameri-
