Peninsula enterprise. [volume] (Accomac, Va.) 1881-1965, 1906-04-21

A French newspaper discovered or
pretends to have discovered, fortified
fiat in Paris. 4 sixth floor apartment
was rented three years ago, with a
permission in the lease to the tenant to
make any alterations desired. Since
then the house has changed slightly
from day to day. Smiths came and
nut I'D steel shutters before the Win
dows. They were shutters very much
like those one sees in front Of shops on
the boulevards, but thicker and of
steel Then steel platform was
erected on the roof and fitted with a
searchlight. The staircase between the
fourth and fifth floors was narrowed,
and a steel door was substituted for
the wooden one at the head Of it. An
other steel door protected the staircase
leading to the roof, and all the other
doors in the fiat were exchanged for
solid oak. CupbOards were made IN
the walls and were fitted with false
bottoms. In one was an iron bedstead,
which could be made to disappear into
the wall with one movement. The
whole fiat was fitted with electric
wires. The Paris paper says the occu-
pant Is royalist who was once tried
for plotting against the republic.

One Of the most interesting discover
les recently made in the Indian ocean
was that floating life is exceedingly
abundant at all depths down to about
1900 fathoms in seas $500 fathOms
deep. BY floating life we mean ami
mails which form the food Of whales
and deep ocean fish and which up to
the present have been believed to live
on or very close to the surface. A va
riety of enormous sQuids were fshed
out, as we'll as jellyfsh and gigantic
prawns fully six inches long. Some of
these latter were blind, while others
had huge eyes, but nearly all of them
had phOsphOrescent organs, which
would naturally be due to the fact that
they live at a depth where almost total
darkness prevails. The blind varieties
had enormous feelers or antennae,
some of them extending to twice the
length of their bodies. Some forms,
such as the water flea, which is only
about the size of a pins head in sur
face water, were discovered six or ten
times that size in COO or 700 fathOms.

NAMING A TOWN.
How Abilene Came to De Selected by
Mrs. HerSey.

Mrs. HerSey.
Abilene was named by the wife Of
the founder of the town, T. f. Hersey.
With her husband she had come to
central Kansas in the spring Of 1857.
They lived in q log house on the west
side of Mud creek and were the first
settlers on the town site, although no
town then existed nor was there one
until 1860. Then c. II. Thompson, who
had moved to the county from Leaven-
worth, bought from the Kansas Pa
clfc Railway company a tract east OF
Hersey's and laid out town.
When it came to the naming Of the
future city Mr.. Thompson went to
Hersey and asked him to suggest
name.
NO" was the reply, 'let my wife
do it. She IS q great reader"
Mrs. Hersey was a graduate Of
seminary In the east, and her little
library, which she carried with her in
her wanderings, was one Of the ties
that bound her to the girlhood life. She
was a deyOut Methodist ana knew ner
Bible from "cover to cover" When
she was asked to name the town she
turned to the New Testament for sug-
gestion. There, in the third chapter Of
Luke, first verse, she found this: Now
in the fifteenth year Of the reign Of
Tiberius Caesar. Pontlus PLATE being
oovarnOr Of Judaea and LYsaniaS
the tetrarch Of Abilene"
Call the town Abilene" said she.
ut means City of the Palms. and that
exactly describes the location
So Abilene it was, and in the fight
for the county seat, wherein 1t contest
ed with Newport, Smoky Hill and In
ion City. all long since passed away,
good fortune attended it, and the new
town became the county capital for
the 37S dwellers then in Dickinson
county.-Kansas City Star.

THE CHURCH sPlRE.
Passing of This Ancient symbol on
the House of Worship.

the House of Worship
In the old days, when the church was
chiefly regarded as a place in which 10
worship on Sunday, the spire was
perfect, visible symbol Of the character
of the building. 1t was a sign of Gods
house. and as such had its use Aside
from this the spire had bell, and, per-
haps. a clock. Now, how changed! Inc
rapid commercial progress of the era
has shown no sentimental regard for
homes, churches or anything else.
The Baptlsts Of late seem to have
taken the most united move to get
away from the spire and all that 1t
means, but they are going to the other
extreme. Many of their new churches
look like public buildings, and some re-
semble a Cairo mosque. The Metho-
dists. while doing away with the spire,
have compromised in many instances
ON a tower.
The Norman and English Gothic or
perpendicular Gothic has come into
high favor in city churches. This style
is at once dlgniied and full of strength
because Of its massiveness. One or
New Yorks best churches of this type
is the North Presbyterian on West
One Hundred and Flfty-ffth street. 1t
has short square tower, carrying d
clock and bell. Another new Presbyte-
rian church, NOrthminster, above Cen
trail park, is utterly devoid Of spire'
tower or skyline adornment
One Of the strangest looking churches
I'm New York city is to be that OF the
Harlem Presbyterian. 1t is strictly
oriental at every point, startlingly BY
zantine from its front elevation, touI
stories high, to the gilded dome and col
or effects. The necessity for institu'
tionalism knows no law except availa'
Bile room. One church in Pittsburg re
Gently completed, has fifty-two rooms
in the edifce. The cost Of the spire has
gone into the interior.-L. 0. Thayer in
| Leslies Weekly.

An amusing incident occurred at
fremont temple a few years ago dur
ing a Sunday school convention. The
musical talent was good, and the ap-
preciative audience applauded each
number of the programme until Or.
Lorimer, feeling that the demonstration
was out of place, stepped to the front
of the platform and said that he was
glad those present were enjoying the
concert, but he must request them not
to clap their hands, considering that
they were in the house of the Lord.
The next number following his COM
ment was a vocal duet by Winthrop E.
Ferguson (he boy soprano at the
Church of the Advent and Walter
Boyd (son of Professor Boyd, director
of music at fremont temple. They
had not anticipated DR.. Lorimers re-
quest, and the audience was somewhat
startled when their clear voices rang
out with "Oh, clap your hands, all ye
people"
Even DR.. Lorimer joined in the smile
which spontaneously spread over the
entire audience.

Altitude Achieved by Kites.

Meteorologists are interested in Sc
curing observations at high attitudes
by means Of kites, and lately Mt the
aeronautical observatory at Linden
burg, Prussia, a record for height was
made, a kite being sent up to an alti-
tude Of 21000 feet. This was accom-
plished by sending up six kites at
tached to each other by the use Of a
length of wire line approximating 49,
600 feet in length. The instruments
carried by the kite recorded a mini
mum temperature Of 10 degrees f. as
compared with Al degrees +. at the
earth's surface. At the maximum alti-
tude the wind blew at a rate Of fifty
six miles an hour as compared with
eighteen miles an hour at the surface.
The maximum altitude exceeds by
nearly LOO feet the previous record
made in the Baltic sea by flying kite
from a Danish gunbOat

weIbeck Abbey's Unique Entrance.

Welbeck, the Duke of Portlands
residence, has the most unique entrance
of any house'in the world, for it is moth
ing more or less than a subterranean
passage. On passing through the gates
the visitor is conducted into yawning
tunnel, through which the daylight
filters by means of great bulbs of glass
let into the roof This tunnel IS wide
enough for two carriages to pass
abreast As is well known, the late
duke scrupulously Stunned his fellow
creatures, and he built this grim under
ground gallery in order that he might
20 backward and forward without be-
ing seen. The whole Of the estate is
undermined with these tunnels, which
branch off in every direction from the
abbey. and each has its own secret
means Of entrance and exit, while fif-
teen of them have their termini In
lodges whose rooms are also built I'M
derground and which can only be open
ed with the dukes master key.

UP TO DATE REFORM.
Rural simplicity Successfully Tried
on New York Waits.


Nothing is more typical of the TWEEN
tieth century than the reformatory to
which wise judges and the generous
philanthropists send the waits ana the
hayward boys of the great city. NOM
ing could be more unlike the old fash
Toned refuge into which the untor-
tunate and misguided boys of bygone
generations were driven, both as re-
CARDS buildings and rules of living,
than the children'S village at DoDDs
Ferry. on the Hudson, the new home
of the New York Juvenile asylum.
In the past destitute children ana
young criminals were generally herd
ed indiscriminately in barracks. NO
one ever thought of calling them
''homes," and no one ever resarueu
them as places where, except Dy
chance. the little inmates were ac1ual-
" reformed. The old time re1ormatOry
was no better than a prison, with all
the hopeless characteristics of such an
institution.
But times have changed for the bet
ter. The children's court has supplant-
ed the regular police court for dealing
with Young offenders; the reformatory,
as in the case of the Juvenile asylum,
Is comprised of some fifteen attractive
cottages and schoolhOuse, situated IN
the midst of fertile plain far from
the demoraliZing city. Instead OF the
severe restraints under which formerly
Young unfortunates chafed here, there
are neither keepers nor fences. The
boy rescued from the streets or taken
from neglectful or abusive parents Is
made to feel that the asylum is the
happiest place in the world. Kindness
meets him ON every hand. industry and
honesty are inculcated by lessons IN
the classroom and by work IN the
shops and on the farm, and every lnlu-
ence tends to encourage in him the
idea that he is gradually making man
of himself. Experience had proved this
scheme a success. for of the 5000 chill
dren sent to western farms from the
ASYLUM after period of training in its
care 50 per cent, it is estimated, have
developed into self respecting and law
abiding citizens. In a simple, natural
and interesting manner the boys are
taught to forget their former lives of
crime or misery and to strive for better
things.
AT present the rather limited capacity
of the institution is taxed to the ut
most. Before long. however. the direct
ors hope to be able to erect at least one
more cottage, which would be the
means of taking some twenty more
boys out of the schools Of crime that
exist in New York city and, besides, to
add a church to the buildings that com
pose this ideal childrens village.
