Leven and Melville will prove sufficient is
rather more than doubtful. In any case
that sum cannot restore us the chapel as
1t originally existed. with its beautiful
tranSept and choir.
There is legend that explains how Holy
rood came by its name. 1t tells of the
rescue of David l of Scotland from a stag
by the miraculous Intervention of black
rood, or cross. The king therefore dedi-
Gated the abbey. which he founded to the
Black Rood of Scotland. casket-shape
cross of gold which had been brought to
Scotland a century earlier. containing what
was supposed to be a portion of the true
cross set in an ebony figure of the Saviour.
The black rood went through many adj
ventures. 1t was preserved In Edinburgh
castle along with the royal regalia, but was
seized by Edward 1 and carried into Eng
land for the purpose of making more
cred the oaths of allegiance which he eX-
acted from the Scottish mobiles. The no.
bles. however. appear to have regarded
their oaths with less scrupe than King Ed
ward expected. The last we hear OF the
black rood comes from the shrine Of st.
Cuthbert In Durham Cathedral at the time
of the reformation. Since that shrine-de-
stroying era all Is silent as to the history
Of the black rood. Its memory. however is
still enshrined in the name of Scotland's
noblest castle.-London Chronicle.

CALAIS TO DOVER TUNNEL.
Old Project Revived Through English
and French Rapproachement.

i from the NeStHiilistcI udLette.
Now that England and France are getting
| together the old project of tunnel under
| the English channel from Calais to Dover is
being talked about Thirty years ago a
French company began to bore at each end,
but England got scared and stopped the
work. She feared that the tunnel would in
vite attack by an army of invasion. This
phase of the question of tunneling the chan
mel was introduced recently by Lord Fftz-
| maurice when welcoming the members Of
the French acamedy on their visit to Lon
don. He declared humorously.
IT have no right to reveal the secret mind
of the government even If 1 knew it, but
there Is one great obstacle in the way of the
| realization of that project. Every nation
has it's phantom, and Englands is mill
tary one. Formerly 1t was feared that a
French army might creep into England
through the hole of a channel tunnel; then
It was a German army that was feared;
then a Russian. But today it is the Chinese
army. We have been assured In the news
papers-and the newspapers never He-that
Mongol army. after crossing Asia, burn
ing st. Petersburg. destroying Berlin and
the University of Paris, would occupy the
pier head at Calais and. entering the tun-
mel, emerge at Dover But those who have
conjured up this dreadful picture forget the
French army which in the vast plains be-
tween Tours and Poitiers would defeat this
army and deliver US from Tartar inva-
sion"
Yet the military danger Is taken seriously
by some and Sir w. Holland. MP, who
hopes that parliament will sanction the tun-
mel scheme, proposed to get round the OBJ
lection by making the tube neutral like the
Suez and Panama canals. But there might
be foes Of England just across the channel
who would not stop for q tride like neu-
trality II they wanted to make the lords and
dignitaries of St James kotow on the spot.
The first Napoleon would have gone through
the hole In spite Of all Christendom had
there been one about the year 1906. And II
wouldn't rest with the Mongols or even
the Turks to furnish some bold Ghengis
Khan or Alaric to raise the cry ION to
London II the subway lay open. 1t is more
than likely the English OF these times will
see the continent overrun by vast socialist
armies who will care nothing for treaty OBJ
legations, and they'll have allies In Eng
land to beckon them on and help them on
II the taking Of London seems worth while.

England Growing in Size.
From the London News.

From the LONDON News
Giving evidence yesterday before the
royal commission on erosion Of the coast.
Mr.. Clement Reid Of the Geological Society
considered that upon the whole 1t was d.
minishing. Why the sea should alternately
grow upon the land and the land upon the
sea was an unsolved geological problem
Upon the Cornish coast the change must
have been very slow. There were prehis-
toric rubbish heaps always close to the
coast. 1t looked as II this coast could not
have lost more than q dozen yards in the
last 1900 years. He believed that the area
of the united kingdom was increasing rath-
er than diminishing. He was distinctly Of
opinion that on certain places on the Nor
folk coast defenses should be erected, and
that this should be regarded as a national
affair. In regard to the cliff area. In his
opinion no expenditure would repay the
outlay, having regard to the fact that the
detrition was SO slight, and that the dis
tricts would lose their picturesqueness.

AS there is more money in the
school fund Of the state than can
be loaned on school bonds and
farm land an effort will be made
to have some legislation passed
allowing the money to be invested
in other ways. If all the school
land in Ward county alone should
be sold for the minimum price of
$40 per acre, the school fund
would be increased about So, 000,-
600. The unusual shortage of
competent teachers impresses
upon us. more and more, the ne
cessity Of another Normal school,
in the western part of the state
where a large number Of teach
ers could be trained, to keep
pace with the rapidly increasing

The decision of Judge Goss Of
this district, that the primary
law does not interfere with nomi-
nations by petition, declares ju-
dicially a point concerning which
there does not seem to be much
room for doubt. The primary
election law purports to provide
means whereby political parties
may select their candidates for
election. It does not attempt to
interfere in any way with the
nomination of candidates who do
not wish to run as partisans. The
decision is one that will be gener-
ally satisfactory. In rendering
his decision, Judge Goss reversed
the decision of Attorney General
Erich.
