 The Trnnsnguration.

The setting suited the gem. The daz- zling wilderness of everlasting snow; the immovable might of rocky barri- cade; the solemn arch of nfght--a moro appropriate environment for the most lovely and majestic of scenes can not be imagined, Purity. power. solemni- ty, were in the face of nature as she beheld her Creators deification. - It was a week after Peters confessiop of the Messiah's divinity and Jesus revelation of the suffering in store for Him--a week spent in the same local- ity, and crowded with converse about these matters--that the Master went up at night into one of natures orato- ,ries, some spur of Mt Hermon. He took with Him the three most advanc- ed of His disciples. the dominant spir- It's of the apostolic colless-the Rock. man and the Sons of Thunder. feasibility of intrusion. the four bowed in prayer. Then. as afterward in Gethsemane. the Savior went apart for season of personal communion with Ills Father, and the apostles wrapped themselves in their outer robes and fell asleep. Possibly, in tiat darkest hour just before the dawn, they awakened with an intuttive ap- prehension of something preternatural transpiring.. They saw a sight of fade less splendor. A third of century afterward Peter wrote of it as if 1t had transpired the day before. - . The form of the servant in which Je- sus had condescended to clothe Him. self thirty-three years before. was now dissolving. The fullness of the God head was unveiled. He shone, not like Moses. with a reflected light; like the sun, his radiance was self-derived. His sun, his radiance a web and wool of electric light, His countenance like snow on which the sun Is shin ing, or like the sun itself in merid- ian. But language of earth Is bank rupt In effort to describe that scene.
 The etherealized body of Je- sus rises, and two holy ones come from
 glory to meet Him in the air. The souls of the apostles. keyed up to the occasion, recognize the visitants as, the one, the man of Sinai: the other, the man of Carmel--the founder and the restorer of Israel. The subject of their conversation Is the same as that which Jesus had had with His disci- ples at the base of that very mountain the cup HN was soon to drink. the baptism He was to be baptized with. the exode He was soon to make. Peter, in the ecstacy of His joy, burst in upon the conversation of the immor- tals. The woody slopes, with their wealth of cedar boughs. suggest the improvising of hasty shelters, after the manner of the Tabernacle feast time. He will fain prolong this scene until all Israel can be summoned to that mount, and behold Moses and Ell jah, the law and the prophets. humbly paying court to the glorified Messiah. That will end all opposition. The na-

ELIMINATE OF POPE.


 Little Miss Hanna Had Special Audi
 ence With His Holiness. New York World.
 The fve-year old daughter of Dan" Hanna of Cleveland came from Europe with her mother the other day. de- claring that Pope Plus X. is a fine playmate. During her stay in Rome, Mrs. Hanna had special audience with his holiness and took her little daughter along. At the termination of the audience. Mrs. Hanna withdrew. In the ante-chamberN she missed ye daughter. Retraeing her steps she was amazed to find the head of the Catholic church of the entire world down on his hands and knees with ind child in a similar position both ap- parently searching for something.
 Little Mss tIIanna doesn't speak Latin or Italian, nor does his holiness speak English; but the little Ameri- can miss was giving minute instruc- tions to her distinguished playmate fin a baby patois that he pretended to understand. For two minutes his holi- ness and little Miss Hanna. both ob- iivious to the presence of number of cardinals and Mrs. Hanna. groped about the floor, turning up the edge of rugs. Finally the Pope held up tiny medallion.
 "Oh that's it" cried litle Miss Hanna The Pope patted her head. and, after expr easing thanks, Mrs. Hanna led her venturesome little daughter away.

He shook his head like he understood, and when I began to look on the floor he got down on his hands and knees and helped me. He found 1t first.

DANIEL BOONE DAY
ANOTHER FEATURE OF KENTUCKY
 UHOME-COMING.0
At Night Grand Ball is Given, Which Was One of the Most Elaborate
 Affairs Ever Held in the

Louisville. Ky. June 15.--The great
 CT portion of the pageantry of the homecoming week was crowded into | today The program as originally ] planned included sufficient features of
 Its own. but the great floral parade
 which was postponed from Wednesday because of rain was an added feature with the result that the days doings | included day and q night parade, a dedication. sham battle and e great | ball, the latter event being one of the greatest and most elaborate affairs
 ever held in the South.
 Twenty thousand invitations were issued. and but for the rigid enforce
 ment of the edict that nobody not in evening clothes should be allowed upon
 the dancing floor, the crowd would
 have taken complete possession of ev-
 erything. The ball proper was pre- ceded by elaborate ceremonies. The night pageant arrived at the doors of the armory at 9:45 o'clock, at which time the doors were opened, admitting the dancers to the first floor and other
 holders of tickets to the balconies At 10 o'clock the column was formed for the grand march, which was led by the chairmen of the ball and by the
 members of the Floor Committee. Be- hind them came the Queen of the ball, Miss Clara Haldeman and Daniel Boone, impersonated by w. W. Davies. Fol- lowing them came the maids of honor to the Queen, other maids of honor
 and a large number of young people
 garbed as the satellites of Mercury.
 The grand march wound in and out
 about the hall. making a beautiful
 picture. beneath the thousands of dif-
 ferent coloreo electric lights that
 swung from the girders and the edges
 of the balconies. The march ended at
 the foot of the Queens throna which
 she mounted with Daniel Boone. stand
 ing at her siGe. The maids of honor
 and the satellites formed picture by
 grouping around the throne. The sat-
 elites then marched out to the swing
 of Sousa's Sound Of" march saluted
 them and the dancing commenced. During the early hours of the ball
 an enormous crowd gathered around
 the armory entrance. Many of them
 were on-lookers but hundreds of oth-
 CTS held admission tickets and for some
 time the task of handling the throng taxed the abilitYes of the police to their utmost.
 The illuminated parade which pre- ceded the ball was most gorgeous af- fair There were fifteen foats in the column, each representing some stage in the progress of the Kentucky com monweaith. The leading float. repre- senting generally the evolution and the others as follows:
 The aboriginal period, adventure. conflict. victory, settlement. govern ment agriculture, industry, education. heroism, science, culture, achievement. hospitality.
 All of the floats were brilliantly illu- minated and the constant burning of red and green fire along the line of
 march made the scene highly spectac- ular
 Rain fell heavily just as the unveil- ing of the Boone statue was about to
 take place and caused bries postpone

PAVING OF STREETS
THE IMPORTANT QUESTION NOW
 BEFORE MOBILE.

Advertiser Bureau,
 Mobile. June 15.
 All other things considered, the ques- tion of street paving for the city of Mobile is the paramount issue just at the present hour. The city, from the river front. with possibly the exception of few blocks in the warehouse dis trict, is paved from Commerce Street on the east to Jackson Gin part) and Broad Streets on the west, and from Church. on the south to State on the north.
 The Board of Public Works, arbiters of improvements Of the highways, are anxious to continue the work of street paving Petitions have been submitted, which will be discussed at special meeting Monday afternoon, for paving Dauphin and Government Streets, from Broad on the east 10 Catherine on the west For Government Street two pe- titions were filed. one advocating bi- thulithic paving. the other. like that for Dauphin Street, leaving the mate rial to be used to the Board of Public Works
 The charter organizing the Board of Public Works, limited that body in the matter of street improvements, to $4 per foot, this to include sub.surface drainage, etc. The Dauphinway peti- tioners express a willingness to pay $5 and the Government Street petitioners $6 per foot, provided the present street lines are not impaired.
 Of the materials already used. as- phalt, granite and creosoted wood blocks, the latter is now preferred. The creosoted wood block Is durable. noise less, free of dust and easily repaired at a nominal cost. This is against the costly repairs to asphalted pavements and the loosening of granite blocks. The creosoted wood pavement is in popular favor with the Board of Public Works. Engineer Smith of the Board of Public Works, has prepared estimates of the work in paving venture No. 4, which will be taken up at special meeting of that body Monday at 6 D. m At this meeting the petitions for paving on Dauphin and Government Streets will also be taken ur and discussed.

The transfiguration Is the heavenly Amen to the earthly confession of the divinity and Messiahship of Jesus. Hardly had that comprehensive creed consented to by the apostles. than they were all shaken by the revelation of the ignominious death in store for theMessiah. That ineffable scene onHer- mon fixed and settled a faith that was tottering to It's fall. It nerved them for Gethsemane and Calvary. It was hitting that they should see the celes- tial evidences of His eternal Godhead and glory on the hither side of the cross. Before they saw His visage marred; they were privileged to see 1t its merciful ministration for Jesus self as we'll as His apostles. It was not merely scenic and pictorial; 1t was of substantial comfort to Him who was touched with a feeling of infirmity and tempted We'll says Stier: t"He who for us is to enter by vol- untary death into glorification must first learn and actually experience in regard to himself. otherwise than by the knowledge of arising from faith. that the glory of light and life Is al- ready present in hi shumanity: that 1t can break forth in him, and radiate from him. even without his passing through death." The descent from the Mount of Transfiguration was like second descent from heaven Jesus earthly life in miniature. We see whencee He came, what glory He laid aside when He humb1ed Himself and took the form of a servant. - We have an example of the honor and toy of the ministering spirits sent forth to minister. Indescribable bliss. unapproaching dignity to hold hgh converse with the Man of Galilee, and soothe and fortify Him as He ap- preached His crucial experienced - These ministrants came from the grave but from the grave conquered Elijah experienced the "change" which those who are alive at Jesus second com- ing shall undergo. Moses died, but his body was probably immediately raised alive again. So the two are samples of the paradisaic form and appearance.
