New York, Oct 15.-'What would Jesus
do If He came into wall street?''
Pointing his finger toward heaven and
looking into the faces Of more than 900
fnanciers. brokers, Office boys, men. and
women, who listened with rapt attention,
the Right Rev. Or. A. F. wilmington
Ingram, Lord Bishop Of London. asked
this question to-day in the course Of a
sermon delivered in front Of the old
custom-house on Wall street.
With a voice ringing clear above the
hum Of the busy street and roar Of the
l. in the distance, the bishop plunged
into his answer
Work. work, work. he cried. He
would do what you are not doing. He
would invade your Offices and the stock
exchange and spread the Gospel.
You who believe in the things I do.
what are you doing to spread the Gospel
in your offices, IN your homes. in the
stock exchange, in Wall street? Answer
these questions. and do not rest until your
.consciences are satisfied"
Rev. William Wilkinson. the wall
Street Chaplain. presided at the meeting.
Evidence of God.
Following this presentation ceremony.
the bishop mounted the platform and re-
ceiyed from Mr.. Wilkinson an embossed
prayer book. Then the bishop made his
address.

How do you know you have a kite
there; you can't see it?'
'Ah, but can feel it pull replied the
little fellow"
An Age Of Miracles.
The bishop went on:
How do you account for the unerring
movements of 100000 blazing suns that
you see as stars? How did all these won
ders come to be? I tell you there is the
mark of a mind upon ali these things.
Beyond the veil before our eyes there is
intelligent mind that governs the titanic
forces OF nature.
You all know the difference between
right and wrong, or should know. Who
gave You this conception of right OF
wrong? 1t was Cod
But there are honest men who hold
back and refuse to believe because Of the
miracles. Can any Of you explain to me
how your Sunday dinner became part of
yourself? Can any of you give me an
intelligent answer as TO what sleep is?
Can you tell the difference between life
and death?
NO. We are living in an age OF mir
acles, in a world Of mysteries. There is

KEELING A LA CODE.

John Kendrick Bangs, writing in the 50th anniversary number of Har- per's Weekly apropos of his experi- ences as 8 recent editor of that per iodical, tells of an editorial crisis which, he confesses, was about the most difficult he ever had to deal with. An arrangement, it appears had been made with a London newspaper by which the Weekly was enjoyed the distinction of presenting to American readers the reflections of Rudyard Kipling upon the African situation "The Weekly for that issue had all ready been made up, full to overflow ing, and was for the most part off the press, when the first of MT. Kip lings blasts arrived-by cable. Three thousand solid words of portentous interest and not an inch of space in which to place them, and the copy right lost unless used at once! That problem was easily solved by resort to a four-page suppliment, suitably embellished with illustrations; but the 5000 words meant that was an editor ial poser for every word of the article came over the cable without a capi- tai, comma, period or even a semi colon from the start to finish plus the inevitable errors in phraseology in transmission. yield to ma man In my admiration for the genious of Rudyard Kipling, and I would cheerfully join a vigilance committee whose avowed ob- iect is the skinning of the Yale pro lessor who recently announced in a lecture that MT Kipling made a mis- take in getting well after his distress ing illness in 1899, but frankly con- fess that I hope never again to have to edit one of his cabled stories. It required a genius equal to his own so to capitalize and punctuate that arti- cle that it would read like the real thing, and I doubt if I succeed. I never dared to read the article after it was published, and my associate read the proofs, so that to this day 1 am not aware whether or not I got the story straight"

EXPLoRING MT. MCKINLEY.

EXPLORING MT. MCKINLEY.
 Various triangulations of Mt. Mo- Kinley have given results varying from 19,000I and some hundred feet to something over 10000 feet. The figure 2O,OOO feet given for the altitude of Mt. Mckinley is the average of sev- eral such measurements.
 A very approximate aetermination of the altitude of Mt. Logan has given the result of 19,5OO feet. This sum nit may perhaps be a thousand feet higher. It is also not very improbable that to the north of Mt. Logan other peaks of this group may rise to still greater attitudes.
 Mt. Mckinley is visible from Cook inlet when the weather is exceptionalr ly clear although the distance is about 200 miles. It was known to white men for nearly 100 years, but gently. To the Russians it was known as 'Bulshaia," and to the natives of Cook inlet as "Traleika," both names signifying high or big mountain. In ! 1895 it was named Mckinley by W. A. Dickey, who while probably not ap- preaching the mountain much closer than 100 miles, called attention to its night. In 1898 G. H. Eldridge and Robert Muldrow, of the United States i Geological Survey, made determina- of it's position and altitude, and in the following year Lieut.. Joseph s. Her ron named the second highest peak of the range Mt. Foraker.' In 1902 g more extended exploration of the Alaska range was made by Alfred H , Brooks and D. L.RaeBurn, who were the first white men to reach the base of Mt. Mckinley. During the summer of 1908 Dr. Frederick A. Cook led ar expedition from Tyonek on Cook in let to the Kichatna river, westerly I tributary of the Yentna, and thence | following the route of Brooks and Rae burn crossed the Alaska range to thu headwaters of the Kuskokwim an( turning northeasterly reached tht northern base of Mt. Mckinley.
 Here two attempts to scale th mountain were made and an altitude of 11,OOO feet attained. The seasol then being far advanced, further at tempts were abandoned, new pas to the northeast of MT, Mckinley wa found, the headwaters of the Chulit ma reached and the expedition tinall. returned by raft and boat to Tyonek From that time until the past summe no further exploration of the Mt Nc Kinley region was made.
 Observations made during this tril convinced Dr. Cook that the best wa! to approach the mountain was iron the south by means of a power boa up the Chulitna river to the region 0 some of the great glaciers that des cend from the mountain on that side and thence by means of packing ove the most promising of these glaciers transport supplies to some point nea the base of the mountain from whicl an attempt to reach the summit coul' be made.
 The present expedition of 1906 wa planned by pr. Cook and the writer with the original idea of carrying ou the program outlined above. Circum stances. however, made it advisable t add q pack train to the outfit and b, this means the unmapped country be tween the Yentna and Chulitna rive was traversed and much new topo graphical data obtained-Review 0 Reviews.

and Of which ruins may today be seen standing grom and splendid aganst the blue Italian sky.
 The Emperor Agrippa alone built 700 fountains decorating 400 of them with marble columns of 300 with sta tues, and each Roman emperor seems to have endeayored to outdo his pre- .decessor.
 Italy is full of beautiful fountains. One of the most remarkable is the Fonte Gala at Selma. The carvings are in white marble, the subjects talk en from the Bible. The water, cool and pure from a spring IS miles away,
 is so limpid that the reflections with in it's depths are almost illusive, so perfect are they.
 There is a quaint little tale connect ed with this fountain. When the foun- tain. When the fountain was first built there was great rejoicinging in Siena, for it was the first large con- duit to be brought into the city, and the people were wild with joy. So much jolity and gayety went on over the affair that they named it the Fonte Gala
 Just at that time there was dug up near the city a wonderful statue of a pagan goddess and the people raised the statue, which was ravishingly beautiful, to stand above the foun- tain. That year men said the evil eye had fallen upon Siena,
 Enemies lurked at her gates and be- seiged her walls. Within there was strife, rapine and murder, until the street fairly ran with blood. At last men murmured
 Surely" they cried, Eve have placed heather goddes above our fountain and therefore is heaven sore displeased and misfortune has been esent upon us. Let us tear down this pagan thing and good Will come of it.
 Forthwith they removed the beauti- l ful statue and with much ceremony
 bore it outside the city gates. Then
 desiring to place it where 1t would dc
 them the most good they carefully with thrifty hatred buried the sta tue upon Forentine soil, hoping tc transfer their own bad luck to theil
 hereditary enemies.
 No one knews where the statue Is now, but Fonte Gala still stands, hel
 water as cool and fresh as when Fht
 old Sienese first rejoiced at her build ing. Rosary Magazine.

WATER SUPPLY.

Piped to the Houses of Rich only--
 others Got It from Fountains.
 In the days before water systems were brought to perfection only the rich were able to have private pipes entering their houses or connecting them with the public fountains. Those in the middle class sent their slaves to the fountain to bear home on their shoulders huge jars of water to sup ply the daily needs, while the common people carried it for themselves.
 A long procession could be seen morning and evening winding its way to and from the fountains, Even today in some parts of Rome one sees young girls carrying an old water jar to the fountain or, in some village of the Ahruzzi, others with two jars sus- pended from wooden yoke across shoulders.
 The water for the Roman fountains came through the mighty aqueducts which stretched along the Campagna,
