BETHLEHEM, PA, Sept, 24.-Among
the many historic sights to be seen In
this picturesque and beautiful old town
there are none more interesting and rich
In legendary and historic association than
the imposing buildings which constitute
the Moravian Seminary for girls and
young women. The site Is almost on the

Indian war, this was the means of saving
bethlehem from massacre and destruc-

BY service to their country. to be consid.
cred among the best OF the broad land"
than that of Harrison. Their English
ancestry, though somewhat difficult &c
trace accurately, yet Is certainly con-

century, one OF whom was the celebrated
inventor OF the chronometer and pocket
watch Sir John Harrison. for which
great service to navigation he received

The name itself, like most Saxon ones,
IS formed by the addition OF "eon' to the
patronymic 'IIarryes." meaning "son Of
Harris" which early became Harrison,
as found In the rolls Of Parliament for
Yorkshire, time Of Elizabeth.
The first to emigrate to America was
probably Richard Harrison. who came
over before 100. though some say the
first was also a Benjamin (for there were
seven Bentamins), who settled at place
called "Kiskiake," in King Charles coun-

Of the Steering Committee agreed to devote
their energies to this end. No one in the COM
mittee had any definite information as to the
time which may be consumed in debating the
treaties, but 1t was reported that Senator Nor

new members of the Senate, he would feel
obliged to go over the ground thoroughly and
even to review much he had already said.
