FREAK OF NATURE.
Thunder Mountains Monument Reared
Without Mans Aid
From Leslie's Weekly.

From Leslies Weekly.
One of the most remarkable natural
cur1osities on the earth is to be seen in
rugged and almost inaccessible part Of
the newly opened, but already famous,
Thunder Mountain gold region in Idaho.
THIS strange freak of nature is called
"Sheep-eater's monument" and is said to
have derived its name from a tribe of In
dams formerly inhabting the district
The mountain is seventy feet high and
consists of rough shaft. composed Of
boulders and gravel, tapering slightly up
whose weight is estimated at not less than
fifty tons. The cap rests slender pro-
Jections from the shaft that are gradually
being worn away by the elements, threat
ening the eventual fail of the great stone.
ridge which rises 1850 feet and descends
80 feet from the site. 1t was undoubted-
~ formed by erosion. The surface of the
declivity has been for centuries and Ia
yet, being washed away by water. the re-
suit OF melting SHOWS, and rainfalls.
Originally the capstone was stationed on
the ground, but gradually the soil sur
rounding 1t was carried away, a narrow
vertical section just under it being left in
tact owing probably to some hard cement
ing substance in the conglomerate aud
possibly also to the direction in which the
eroding torrents expended their force How
long a time was required to form the shaft
may De only parity realized when it is
stated that there are trees not far away
taiier than the monument. As the erosits
process continues, the shaft is likely to
increase in length unless a soft spot should
be reached under the present surface in
which case the curious formation might
topple over and break into pieces.

A Lesson in Manners,

From the New York Times
1t was maiden lady. of a certain aga.
small trim and of determined expression
of countenance just as the block opened
at 18th street and Madison avenue she
essayed to cross the bows of a Madison
avenue car, bound south, and at stand
still.
All! Gwan out of that. Wot tell you
doin there?" exclaimed the chivalrous
motorman.
That froZe her in her (and his) tracks.
In still. small voice she said II will
not bulge one inch till you apologize"
The motorman grumbled and swore. The
maiden lady stood pat" The passengers
came out on the front platform sized up
the situation. and brought pressure to bear
on the motorman. Finally he exclaimed
in manner which was the acme of I'M
graciousness:
We'll, lady. ask your pardon
Granted, SIR, and she stood from be-
fore. and the car sped on, amid the cheers
of the passengers for the woman who had
given a lesson in manners to mo.orman.

PROTEST AGAINST MASSACRE.
Jews Here Exclaim Against Russia-Relief
Fund Growing Rapidly.


Eighty representatives of the twenty
four Zionist organizations in the city met
last night in the CHAVEZ Zion rooms, at
Rutgers place. to plan for possible emer-
gency in Jewish affairs in Russia.
Secretary Dc Haas said that the Kishi-
nieff massacre was as bad as the rnassacres
OF 1881 and 1901. He said that Atty Jews
had been murdered and 10000 forced to
emigrate to Odessa. New York Zionists.
he said, had alread cabled 5000; Phila-
delphia, 81 900, and small town in Wis

The present purpose was to try and raise
still more.
Workers were chosen TO make q sidewalk
collection next Sunday, and merchants will
he asked to give percentage OF their re-
ceipts next Monday to the relief fund.
Another meeting to protest against the
massacre was held in Cooper Union. Somc
disappointment was felt because some Of the
speakers invited, including Father Ducey
and Dr.. Felix Adler, did not appear. Dr.
Adler gave as his reason that he was afraid
Of saying something offensive to Russia
which would do more harm than good to
the Jews there.
II was announced by the committee that
DR.. Adler had expressed the opinion that
only by generating tho Gar OF all blame
for the recent massacre. In any resolutions
that might be parsed, could any good be
done for the Jews in his domains. The
committee did not take this view and the
resolutions that were passed denounced
the Gar declared that he and his Govern.
ment alone were responsible, and called
upon all Americans TO unite, not only In
protest. but In aiding the revolutionary
party in Russia to bring about freedom
there.
Speeches were made by Joseph Barondeee.

Word was received from Rome by mem
bers OF the Catholic Church in this city
yesterday that Father Charles H. Cotton
rector OF st. Stephens. in East Twenty
eighth street. had been appointed Bishop
Of Buffalo.
No formal announcement Of the appoint.
ment arrived, as the mail is used for such
communications. and the appointment by
the Consistory was only made yesterday
| so no official confirmation Of the news could
| be obtained either from Father Cotton or
at the archiepiscopal residence But a
friend OF Father Cotton said he had re-
ceived despatch telling Of the appoint
ent and that he had given the good word
informally to the pastor Of st. Stephen 8.
Father Cotton would only say that he pre-
sumed the news dispatches from Rome
must be correct.
II was announced some time ago that
Father Colton's name was one Of the three
ominations sent to Rome. for appoint
ment to the see Of Buffalo He had been
twice before honored by his Church asso-
ciates His name was on the Bishops
list Of nominations sent to Rome for the
post Of Archbishop Of New York after

Bishops and priests put his name on their

dained priest in 1875 He was born in New
York on Oct. is. ls4s, and was educated at
Seminary Sc ,' at at Troy. he established the
Sacred Heart sodality at st. Joseph's
When he became rector of st. Stephens
he found the parish without a school and
get about establishing one. II has grown
from a membership Of 10 in 1887 to
l,l5O, with twenty-nine teachers and
fine school building, which was completed
in 1900.
In 1894 Archbishop Corrigan appointed
Father Cotton Vice Chancellor OF the arch
diocese. Soon afterward he became
Chancellor, a post he has since retained:
1t was In 1894 that Father Cotton succeeded
in extinguishing the debt OF his church
and it was consecrated. The same year
st. Stephens Church was raised to the rank
Of a missionary rectory.

before the bull notifying Father Cotton OF
his appointment arrives here through the
appointee has the right to ask what Bishop
he will to consecrate him, but usually he
asks the head Of his own diocese to do 80.

MAJ. HALFORDTALks TOY. M.C. A.
Describes Religious Conditions In the
Philippines, Where He Spent Two Years.

WASHINGTON, May 4.-Major Elijah W.
Halford. Y. s. A., who was private secre-
tary to President Harrison, and who bas
just returned from two years service in
the Philippines. described religious con-
ditions in the Philippines. yesterday after
noon in a talk at the Y. NJ. c. A. Major
Halford was superintendent OF one of the
Sunday schools in Manila, and while there
took an active part in Protestant religious
work.
He said that for centuries there had been
union Of church and State in the Philippines,
and when the Americans arrived they found
that the church had swallowed up the State
and was dominating the people.
Prior to the capture OF Manila by the
American army. he said. a revolt had begun
against religious domination and the people
were ready to receive the views OF Protest
ants. which had been denied them by the
Catholic Church and the Spanish Govern
ment.
The Spanish laws did not permit Protes-
tant church to acquire property, and the Use
Of Protestant Bibles vas prohibited by
law. Until Congress enacted American
laws this condition existed, and when a
Methodist church was started In the islands
in Major Halford's name as an individual.
He denied that the Protestants went to
the Philippines as proselyters, and said
that when they first appeared there they
were cordially welcomed and are still
welcomed
Mr.. Halford said that the first Protestant
movement for the invasion of the Philip
pines was begun in 1898, under the leader
ship of the Presbyterian General Assembly
This denomination was quickly Joined In
the work by the Methodists and Baptists,
and later by the Episcopal Church and
Disciples OF Christ. He added:
@The splendid thing is the excellent Chris
tian feeling that exists among the mis-
sionaries. They have formed an evangelical
union. and they aim to spread the Christian
doctrine. regardless Of creed. They prefer
to have lo,ooo, 900 Christians, rather than
1000 900 Methodists. They have divided
the islands into sections for missionary
work. These divisions OF territory do not
overlap, and one missionary is not supposed
to trespass upon the borders of another"
The Presbyterian Church. he said. has
large English congregation in Manila and
they work mainly among the English speak
ing people. They have also done con-
siderable work in Iloilo and have started
an industrial school in which they already
have 100 students. The Methodists, In addi-
ton to an English church in Manila, have
nine Filipino chapels. and the Episcopal
Church is accomplishing great good by the
establishment of sewing schools and indus
trial and mechanical schools. The natives
he characterized as intelligent and willing
TO learn.
