Perhaps you have already perused it
in your school histories. At any rate
it is fearful and wonderful tale, and
were it for the fact that Champlain dis
covered that lake and that he stands
so high in other ways he would lay
himself open to the charge of trying
to rival Munchausen. According to,
his thrilling account, he loaded that
blunderbuss with lot of bullets and

The Iroquois were naturally Stupe-

chiefs at one bang-as much surprised.
no doubt, as are those African animals
at the shooting of Bwana Tumbo-and
after one OF Champlain's companions
had also let off his gun the noble red
man ignobly turned tail and broke
down the brush in his mad stampede.

and their hatred for the French en-
dured forever. They became allies of
the English and assisted materially in
keeping the French from capturing
what is now New York and portions
of New England and eventually aided
the British in their struggle with the
French for control of the continent

Artillery Against Air Craft.

1.-THE balloons and airships have
made it necessary for artillerymen to
work out new set of mathematical
tables for firing at air craft,'' writes
Newton Forest in, Harper's Weekly.
In the defense against aerial attack
the firing Of the gun must necessarily
be of the high angle kind, and the
weapon must be capable Of rapid
training in wide arc. Such a weapon
has been designed and manufactured
by the Krupp works at Essen, says the
author, and has been placed at the dis
posal of the German war Office. The
fleldpiece is Of PA caliber and fires a
nine pound shell with velocity Of
1000 feet per second, and there is also
a weapon designed for fortifcations or
shipboard.

Of the Historic Event. y "
BY JAMES A. EDcERToN.

HNHE centenaries in this year Of
years are so thick it is hard to
keep track of them. Not only
notable births and deaths. are
commemorated. but discoveries and
even Inventions Now it is the tercen-
terary. Of the discovery of Lake Cham

liks anniversary of the discovery of
the Hudson river, coupled with which
viii be the centenary of Fulton's first
steamboat and its memorable trip on
the same river.
The discovery of Lake Champlain oc-
cured on July 4prophetie day!--in
the year 1909 The diseoverer was
Samuel de Champlain, Frenchman
who had founded the city of Quebec
the previous year. These facts are stat
ed not in an effort to compete with the
school historians. but only because
they furnish the reason for the cele-
bration. Lake Champlain is rich not
only in beautiful scenery mountains
on both sides. rugged shores and
abrupt islands-but in historical ASSOC
Cautious. AS the gateway to Canada
1t became a battle-ground of the
French and English in their. early
struggles to control the continent and
later between the. Americans and the
English in the Revolution and the war
of 1872
The celebration is meant to cover all
of this. 1t is not a memorial Of the
discovery alone but of the great events
that have occurred since the discov-
cry 1t includes Ethan Allen and Ticon-

him for that story about killing SO

cred our lake, and, even If he did not
do it Intentionally, his Is the honor.
So we are to hold a weeks celebration
in his name and are to erect to him a

lighthouse. which will be placed on
Isle Lamotte, where he first landed
1t would do his old French soul good
to know just what lot of fuss we
are making about him nearly 300
years after he Is dead There will
be presidents, governors, governor
generals, prime ministers, cardinals,
bishops, poets. orators and all kinds of
great men lifting his name to the skies.
Greatest glory of all, the New York
legislature will attend in body. If
Champlain could only know that, he
would certainly be overwhelmed by
his posthumous splendor. 1t is much
for mere mortal to have president
of the United States and a governor
general of Canada do honor to his
ashes. but to have the New York legis-
lature Journey in body to his shrine
surely that is the acme of flannel Who
ever thought of that dazzling and un-
paralleled feature should have lived in
the days of Phineas r. Barnum. the
only man capable of rating such genius
as it deserves.
Nor are these the only honors that
will be paid to the discoverer, although
no other single feature can be quite SO
