ORDER OF THE RED EAGLE.
Recently Bestowed BY Emper-
or william on Americans.

In view Of the numerous decora-
tions conferred on Americans, it will
be of interest to learn something
about the history of the particular
orders bestowed. The Order of the
Red Eagle, which many Americans re-
ceived, was originally established in
17o5 by the hereditary prince of
George Wilhelm of Brandenburg-
Anspach, under the name "Ordre de
Ia Sincerite" and Order of the Red
Eagle. When in 1871 the markgrave-
dom became a part of Prussia, the
Order of the Red Eagle was also TAX
en- over by the state King Fried
rich Wilhelm II. made it the second
order Of Importance of the kingdom
Friedrich Wilhelm III. in 1918
changed the statutes and also the
signs of the order. Under Friedrich
Wilhelm Nv. and the late King Will
helm, whom his grandson calls the
great. the statutes were also extend
cd. The order consists Of five classes,
which are: Grand cross, first class.
second class with star and without
star), third and fourth class; be-
sides these classes, large number
Of gradations and variations exist,
says an eastern exchange.
The decorations of the grand cross
consist Of large eight-pointed white
ST. Johns cross with gold setting.
The crosses Of the first, second and
third class, which differ only in size,
consist of smooth, white enameled
cross, inlaid with gold. white gold
shield in the middle shows in front
n crowned red eagle bearing a green
wreath in his talons. The cross of
the fourth class has the same form,
the arms Of the same. however, are
not enameled but of silver, only the
the other classes.
An order which many of the Amer
leans received Is the royal crown or
der. the youngest order of Prussia.
1t was established in 1861 by King
Wilhelm of Prussia, when in com
memoration of his coronation. The
order is of the same rank as the Or
der of the Red Eagle, and also divid-
ed into four classes. The decsra-
tion consists of a plain white enam-
eled cross, having a double golden
setting. The middle shield has in
front a golden crown surrounded by
q blue enameled crown, bearing the
inscription, God with u.s." on the
back is the name of the royal found
er, w. R.. and the date of the found.
ing of the order, October 18, 1861.
The orders of the first, second and
third class differ only IN size, while
the order of the fourth class is not
enameled, and consists of q simple
golden cross.

Amcfeut Skyscrn pers. !

\ Nnraeroussconflicting estimates have
been made of the height Of the tower
of label, but one fact never has been
denied, and that is that it was sky
scraper. St Jerome, in his commen-
tary on Isaiah. says that the tower
was already 1000 PAGES high when God
came down to stop the work. A pace
is about 2h feet; therefore 1000 PAGES
must be 10000 feet; consequently Ba-
bel was 20. times as high as the Pyra-
mids (which are only about 500 feet).
Father CABINET says the tower was S1,-
900 feet high, and that the languages
were confounded because the archi-
tects were COMPOUNDED, as they did
not know, how to bring the building
to head. Moreover, it is understood
that the Chinese language of to-day
was originally the same language as
the high German,
