WASHINGTON MEMORIAL CHAP
Ell.

Monument Now in Process of Erection
at Historic Valley Forge, Penn.
The interest which has sprung up of
late years in colonial and Revolutiona-
ry history. and the effort which has
been made by the members Of the yari-
Gus patriotic societies to preserve his
torie sites and buildings, are so wide
spread that many persons viii be deep
ly interested in the washington Memo
rial chapel at Valley Forge, Penn. Val
ley Forge has always been a name to
conjure with among patriotic society
people, and as many of the features of
the original camp are still in existence,
the place has been visited by them to
considerable extent.
The one hundred and twenty-fifth an
niversary OF the evacuation was cele-
brated June 10. At this time the cor
ner-stone Of the washington Memorial
chapel was laid by Bishop Whitaker Of
the Diocese Of Pennsylvania, and an
address was delivered by the Rev. c.
Ellis Stevens. s. 7. D., rector of Christ
church, Philadelphia. in which Wash
ington was frequent worshiper The
site Of the chapel, which is on high
ground, near the center Of the encamp-
ment, was the gift of Colonel and Mrs.
/, Heston Todd, who also gave the site
for the monument erected by the
Daughters of the Revolution, to mark

The utter disproportion between the

but a wonder devoid OF a trace Of os-
bentation. The petty town which peeps

only emphasizes the tremendous gulf
that in Tibet yawns between the people

Alexander Msckay Smith, D. D., bish-

OF the chapel is perpendicular Gothic,

is the dominant feature includes a par

seen as in a map. The patriots hail.

meeting place for the patriotic societies
which may visit Valley Forge, as well
as for local gatherings. Should the
mission grow into well-establishcd
parish, as seems likely in the not far
distant future, a rectory viii be added
to the plant.
As the interest in Valley Forge is Of

or sectional, It seems eminently fitting

of the chapel and its equipment should
be asked for in all parts of the country.
"A number of memorial gifts have al
ready been received from descendants
of Revolutionary soldiers who were at
Valley Forge through that terrible win
ter, and others are promised. Water
bury has its own special interest in the
memorial, since a member of the local
chapter Of the Daughters of the Amer
lean Revolution, Miss Rhoda A. Thomp-
son, its Real Daughter" has been
granted the privilege Of placing in the
chapel the second bronze tablet, in
memory of her father, who was one Of
the Revolutionary soldiers in the VAL
ley Forge encampment. There are
many descendants Of this hero now liv-
ing, who will gladly contribute toward
such tablet. Miss Thompson has re-
ceived from the officers Of the Washing
ton Chapel Auxiliary literature con-
corning the chapel, as well as inforna-
ton regarding the present status Of the
work and will be glad to answer ques-
tions concerning it asked by those who
are in any wise interested 1t is desired
to make the list of Revolutionary sol
diers who spent the winter at Valley
Forge as complete as possible, so that
all may be duly honored within the
chapel walls.

Historic Ships Names.
From the Boston Transcript

At least four historic ships of our navy
have been launched from Boston ways
the Constitution, the old Cumberland, the
Hartford and the Merrimac. The old Cum
berland, the ship of tragic glory, was
launched more than sixty years ago. The
Merrimac, which, converted into confed-
crate ironclad and named Virginia, was to
destroy the Cumberland, was put into the
water in 1855. The Hartford was launched
in 1856. The Cumberland, Merrimac and
Hartford were all navy yard built. The
new Cumberland is to be used as a training
ship and therefore her service will be of
prepare ton rather than war. But 1t is well
that training ships should bear heroic
names, since the associations that cluster
about them are Inspirations to young tars.
The training squadron of sailing vessels
when completed will be made up of the
Chesapeake, Cumberland, Intrepid and the
brig Boxer. Of these. the Chesapeake re-
peats the name of ship singularly unfor-
tunate, but whose final disaster was almost
redeemed by the devotion of Lawrence; the
original Intrepid persisted in her duty, and
Somers and her crew were great exemplars
of supreme self-sacrifice. The Cumberland's
heroic story will live forever. The Boxer
alone carries in her name the association of
victory.

A Simple Experiment.
From the Boston Herald.

Cut two slips of paper long enough for
each to encircle the outside Of a bottle,
leaving an uncovered space between the
slips. Fasten them In place by thread.
and then wrap a piece of Irvine around
the uncovered glass between the strips.
Tie one end of the Irvine to nail or some
convenient hook. Hold the other end with
one hand, and with the other move the bot
tie quickly backward and forward. This Is
done In order that the Irvine may run upon
the exposed glass between the paper bands
This action will shortly cause the surface
of the glass to heat. After 1t is well heated
drop some cold water on 1t. Now, by a sharp
STOP you may break the bottle in half so
evenly that there will not be one jagged
place in the entire circle of the break.
But of what use is this bit of apparently
superffuous knowledge? Well, suppose, for
instance, the glass stopper in your cologne
bottle Off you are a girD got stuck and re-
fused to bulge. All you have to do to dis
lodge the stopper is to wind a heavy cord
around the neck, get some one to pull one
end taut, take hold of the other end your
self. and work the neck mildly to and fro
in the string. just as you did In the first
experiment. This continued friction will
cause the neck of the bottle to become so
hot that it will expand. and the glass stop
per will be loosened enough to allow 1t to
be pulled out without further trouble.

stalk, Poole states, peacock came to me
and threa tened me and laid violent hands
upon me. throwing me- to the ground and
beating me-"
Poole says he was afraid of Peacock, and
that after he knocked him Poole) down, Pea
cock reached for a stone. Poole says he
pulled a gun from his, pocket, which he
carried for self-protection and shot at Pea
