No competitive examination of to-

The artists of hong ago saw nothing
strange in the legends which gathered
around the birth of Christ, but they
were intent on producing a record of
the principal scenes chronicied in the
New Testament. and to this end they
worked only TO produce representa-

POWER OF TRUE SYMPATHY.

From the top of a mountain you

your horizon is very broad, and you
can distinguish the details that it en-.
compasses:- but, from the valley, you
cannot see the top OF the mountain
and Your horizon is limited. says An

This illustrates truly the breadth
and power of wholesome human sym

recognize the fact when the standard
of another man is higher than his

once when he becomes aware of a

BILLS INTRODUCED AND PASSED.
by a Vote the Senate Committee Au-
thorized Favorable Report Regarding
Oklahoma ID Indian Territory to Be
come state OF Oklahoma.

Washington. Dec. 20.-6Ir. John F.
Wallace, chief engineer of the 18Th
mian canal commission, has given the
house committee on interstate and
foreign commerce the benefit of his
investigation so far as made regard
ing the engineering tasks TO be per-
formed in the construction of the Pan
anna canal. The testimony was taken
aboard the army transport Sumner in
Colon barbor, on the occasion Of the
recent visit of the committee to the
canal zone. It is to be printed for the
use of congress.
Before taking up in detail the four
district canal propositions which are
being considered by him, and on
which he is to report to the canal
commission, Mr.. Wallace made this
explanation of the general problem:
The isthmus is transversed by a
mountain range. the summit of which
is approximately twelve miles from
the Pacific and thirty-five miles from
the Caribbean. Originally a gorge
evidently existed from the Caribbean
near Colon TO the vicinity of 'Gamboa
and extended beyond that point in an
easterly direction forming the upper
basin OF the Chagres river.
Washington, Dec. 1.-THE sepate
committee on territories by a vote of
6 TO 1 authorized a favorable report on
the statehood bill providing for the ad-
mission into the union of Oklahoma
and Indian Territory to become the
state of Oklahoma, and of Arizona and
New Mexico to become the state of
Arizona. The bill is the one original
ing in the house in the second session
of the Fifty-eighth congress, but has
been amended materially by the sen
ate committee.
The prohibition provision relative to
Oklahoma is as follows:
That the sale, barter of giving
away except for mechanical, medical
or scientific purposes, of intoxicating
liquors within that part of the state
heretofore known as the Indian Terri
tory or other Indian reservation with
in the state, be prohibited for a period
of ten years from the date of admis-
sion of said state and thereafter I'M
til the legislature of said state shall
otherwise provide
Among other amendments to the
house bill are the following: Reduc-
ing the number of delegates from the
territory of Oklahoma to the consti-
tutiOnal convention from 60 to 80 and
increasing the number from the In
dian Territory from so to "a; reduc-
ing the number from New Mexico
from 20 TO 66 and increasing the num-
Der from Arizona from 40 to A.
Including the university prepara-
tory school and the colored agricul-
tural normal school in the education
al institutions to be benefited by land
reservations on Oklahoma.
Requiring that any lands sold for
the support of the public schools in
the state of Oklahoma be sold at pub
