The attempt of civil service en-
ployes to obtain some provision for a
retiring pension has not aroused much
sympathy. The old notion that every
man should provide for himself and
attend to his own future Is still strong
and it has elements of manhood in it
which appeal to the national spirit.
There Is a very common feeling that
government employees do less in return
for their salaries than most Of their
fellow citizens and enjoy a good many
contingent advantages, and that those
who cannot or will not provide for
their own future should take the pen
atty as everyone else does There Is
no possible objection to their associat
ing to create a pension or disability
fund, but there will certainly be feel
ing against the government undertake

surmounts Cathedral heights. It was
during the recent diocesan convention
that it was discovered that only six
out Of the forty belonged to the mas
culine persuasion. Among the 600
clergymen Of the Protestant Episcopal
church who visited the cathedral, were
a couple Of provincial ministers who
professed to be Mortified that the faces
were those of gentle women. Mention
Of lady" angels are not abundant in
the Bible, these clergymen asserted,
and so vehement were their protests
that they finally reached the ears of
the building committee, which pro-
tested to the sculptor that his angels
would never, never do. Mr.. Borglum

A FAMOUS V!OLlNIST.
He Was Political Influence in History
of Modern Norway.

He Was Political Influence in History
of Modern Norway.
What was it that made Ole Bull IN
deniably the greatest political infu-
ence in the history of modern Nor
way? The riddle is easy to read, says
Margaret e. Noble in the Century.
Although he voiced the peasants. his
own voice was that of no peasant, but
one of the most severely learned Of
European utterances. His instru-
mental mastery was complete and the
technical difficulties of his compost
tions have left them for the most
part unperformable. But Mozart was
his chosen theme worshiped with such
an ardor Of conservation that the
whole range Of his works had for him
no secret. His fame, therefore, was
of that order that opens all doors.
Statesmen and chief captains like Bis
marck and Won Moltke were his init
mates and he was their confdant. To
world artists like List, Chopin and
Mendelssohn he was own brother. In
deed, curious physical resemblance
between List and himself led to many
amusing contretemps on this score.
And sovereigns, diplomatists and
great mobiles were all proud to name
him among their friends. In him,
then, Norway had found one who
could stand for her in the highest
ranks of the nations, learn for her the
secrets of statecraft and recover in
her behalf the trick of thinking like a
king. For this is one OF the losses en-
tailed on a people who are governed
by foreigners from a foreign seat, that
they forget to think Of their country
as a whole, the habit that is the secret
of rulers.
Yet it was only as a man, and not
by any means as a politician, that an
autocrat could claim the friendship of
the distinguished artist. His own SOW
ereign felt that he had cause for grave
offense when the news reached Stock
holm, in 1913, of his heading a process
sion in Paris to present the Norwegian
colors to Lamartine. But even royal
anger could not resist the good stories
told on the next visit and the king
stood biting his lip at the careless
bonhomie Of Ole Bull, as he turned
suddenly and said, "By the way, sire,
you should have been with us the
other day in Paris when we went to
acclaim Lamartine."

WORLDS OLDEST INDUSTRY.
Tt Is the Manufacture of Gun Flints
at Brandon, England.

Probably the Oldest established bust
ness in the world is at Brandon, in
Suffolk, where the manufacture of
gun f1ints has been carried on as the
successor to the prehistoric manufac-
ture Of arrow heads from the same
material. It is estimated that for
more than 10000 years flint working
has been carried on at that spot, the
only change made since those early
days being in the introduction Of
metal tools for working the fints in
place Of the stone and horn of the saw
age, says the New York Herald.
Gun fiints are still in use in various
parts Of Asia and Africa, where the
possession Of percussion cartridges is
forbidden to the natives. The average
weekly production is still 100000,
though in the days when the flint lock
was the universal arm millions were
turned out weekly, since Brandon is
noted as producing the best f1ints
made.
Gun f1ints are not the only product,
however, for in Latin Europe the
'strike-a-light' is still given the prefer
ence over matches, and of these about
10000 a week are manufactured for
the Italian and Spanish trade During
the Boer war $4,000 flints were issued
to the British troops and were found
valuable in emergencies where the or
binary match would not have served.
The strata of flint are in five layers
on Lingheath common, mile south
east of the village Each miner works
by himself, employing the same meth
DDS as were followed by the earlier
workmen, the ground being uncovered
in layers or STEPS," that the dirt may
be carried away without the use Of
Windlass and buckets.
The product is sold to the clippers,
who work at their homes in the vii
lage In spite of the fact that each
blow Of the hammer is from a differ
ent angle and is struck with varying
force, the workman instinctively
guides the chisel and the flakes fall
into the baskets in an almost continu-
GUS stream. They are shaped with a
chisel-like hammer on a block of iron
and are then packed into barrels con-
tanning from 5000 to 10000 each.
