TERCENTENARY OF BIBLE.
Anniversary This Month of Profound
Religious and Literary Significance.

\ triple significance is attached To
the 309th anniversary of the King
james translation, or authorized YER
sion, of the Bible. which has been and
is being widely celebrated this month.
though somewhat vaguely and various
ly, since. as the bool, was never en-
tered at s'tationers' Hall for copyright,
the precise date OF its appearance is
unknown, though it is sufficiently GER
tain that it was in March, 1911. The
first significance, at least in obvious
ness, is, of course, religious meaning
both spiritual and ecclesiastical. That
translation and its publication un-
doubtedly caused a vastly wider circu-
lation and reading of the Scriptures
than had been known before or would
have been attainable without it, while
the uniform use of an "authOrized"
version, appointed to be read in
churches" strongly promoted uniform
ity and solidarity of faith and practice.
The phenomenal development of re-
ligious organizations i'll the English
speaking world in the last three CEN
turtles is largely, to be ascribed to the
results of the work which was COM
pleted in the Jerusalem chamber 800
years ago.
No less noteworthy, in another wav.
has been the influence of that work
upon the English LANGUAGE a~d litei."-.
ture. Far more than any other book
that has ever existed, it established
and has maintained an authoritative
standard of speech. That a word is
used or construction is employed in
the Bible has for generations been re-
garded as conclusive Vindication of its
legitimacy; and there are even those
who go so far as to suggest, not with
out some color of plausfbility, that the
corruption of speech which lovers of
pure English SO often deplore has been
a direct and essential consequence -
the decline in Bible reading and stud ~
which has also been observed 1t was
most fortunate circumstance that
this version of the Scriptures was
made at about the elimination of one
of the most splendid eras in English
literature, and thus crystallized in it's
imperishable and practically un-
changeable form the riches of the
verbal treasure houses of Spenser,
shakespeare, Johnson, Sidney, Bacon,
and their compeers 1t is really their
literature, with that of Tyndale and
Coverdale, which lives in it's pages.

lators. Macaulay we'll declared thar.

Madrid, April The cabinet of Premier
Canaleias resigned Saturday.
The cabinet met and discussed the viO-
lent controversies which have arisen with
ing and outside the Chamber of Deputies
during the debate on the trial of Prof
Ferrer, the founder of the Modern school
at Barcelona. who was executed in 1853
after conviction on the charge of incit-
ing revolution.
The ministers also considered what at
titude the government should take con-
cernng new developments. particularly
the opposition agitation in the army. Such
was the diversity of opinion on several
points that the retirement of the cabinet
was determined upon.
The Canalejas cabinet was formed on
Feb. 9, 1910. and reorganized on Jan 1
last. Canaleias. il forcing measures af-
fecting the church, met the bitter opposi-
tion Of the Catholics and his course re-
