A rumor is in the air that the
Frisco railroad company is trying
to buy more land out near
its passenger station. The ques-
tion now is what do they want
with it? Another rumor is to the
effect that the Frisco wants to
locate some repair shops and a
roundhouse here. If the latter
rumor is true the extra land is no
doubt wanted for that purpose.

The Little Sanctuary is covered with
English ivy and in and about the walls
are parts Of ancient pillars. old capitals
and fragments OF arches. beautifully sculp-
tured. Inside there are many things which
show how Bishop Satterlee planned to
make an entirely modern cathedral partici-
pate in the history Of the older churches.
The most beautiful OF the treasures in
the Little Sanctuary is the great ambon.
or pulpit which was received only last
autumn. The Canterbury ambon 1t is
called because 1t is made of stones from
Canterbury Cathedral. The stones were
given by the Archbishop Of Canterbury
in memory Of Stephen Langton. who led
the barons when they forced King John
to grant them the Magma Charta.
The. stones Of the pulpit are white and
are carved with great beauty and rioh-
ness. It is 10 feet high, D feet wide and
IL feet long including the steps and beauti-
ful balustrade. The work was done under
the direction Of the architect in charge OF
Canterbury Cathedral, but the expense
was borne by friends in this country. 7'
While not so beautiful as the ambon.
the cathedra. or Bishops chair is of even
greater historical interest. 1t is made
of stones from Glastonbury Abbey. many
OF them original fragments just es they
were carved hundreds Of years ago. The
tradition is that the church at Glsston-
bury was founde!;by Joseph Of Arimathea;
but in any case its origin goes back to the
frst !Christian missionaries to Britain.

matter Of real moment to them.
That they have 80 found IL 10 duo to the
renius and enthusiasm with which bishop
;satterlee worked out his plcn for greet
national cathedral The building OF THIS
cathedral was his dream. Hi5 great cohi've-
mont was that he made thousands OF is!sors
to Washington share IN his aims. s, ,..-.
q When Bishop Brent WIS elected tho other
day the first question asked by these thou
sands was: "How does he feel about the
cathedral? VIII he carry 1t on as Bishop
Satterlee did2" Probably the best answer
to this question is the statement made at
the time Of the election that Bishop Brent
was Bishop Satterlee's own choice for the
place. ts
Churchmen are Interested in the new
Bishops attitude on sundry ecclesiastical
questions. The great public cares only
what he is going to do ct Mount st. Alban
The people already love the hill from which
the great cathedral will some day look
down on the nations capital city.
There is only one stone Of that cathedral
laid to-day. Bishop Satterlee himself laid
It on September 20 last. II he had not died
it 10 possible that several years might have
elapsed before another stone would have
been laid. As 1t Ia his death promises to
add another link to the chain Of romance
with which he bound together the various
steps In the making Of the cathedral.
4 The first portion Of the building to be
attempted will be the foundations Of the
Bethlehem Chapel OF the Nativity, which
IL to be q memorial to Bishop Satterlee.
After his death members Of the diocese OF
Warrington were asked tn contribute $50 900
toward the building Of this chapel. 1t is
TO be In the crypt. but owing to the slope
OF the land 1t will be almost entirely above
ground and will be lighted by outside win
dows. It will hold 800 persons.
The $50, 900 asked for was subscribed al
most to the full amount within few weeks.
and work on the foundations Of the chapel
will be started this month. On Ascension
Day, May 2s, the first sod will be turned.
The strange part Of it is that in the latest
letter which Bishop satterlee wrote con-
cerning the cathedral he described the pro-
rosed chapel and said:
1t is for God to decide how this chapel
10 TO be provided for and built
His own death 30 soon after he wrote
those words proved to be the event which
ut once secured the funds for the building
He also wrote:
Z If God inspires any donor or donors
with the desire to complete the foundation
Of the whole cathedral then the Bethlehem
Chapel might we'll be made memorial
