some years Maine witnessed the growth of the Shiloh colony in spirit of toler- ance bred by the belief that all people should be allowed to worship God in their own way, as long as they kept the laws Gradually reports came that people were giving up their property to Sandford and soon persons left the colony saying that they had Host the same. but there was no interference, as they had apparently mado the deeds of their own free will.
 Now, however. there has been a change and Sandford faces a severe sentence as he has been found guilty of causing the deaths of six of his followers, who died from privation on the voyage undertaken by Sandford to the coast of Africa. It was shown that great suffering was occa- stoned that might have been avoided had Sandford permitted a landing to obtain provisions. There seems no likelihood that sandford will be permitted longer to head the Shiloh movement It is char itabe, perhaps. to consider the man in- sane and he doubtless is a monomanlac c on the subject of religion. His statement in court Is convincing in this regard as. refusing counsel. he stated that he was carrying out the will of the Lord as dis closed to him. He appears perfectly rec onciled to whatever may happen to him and doubtless regards that whatever pun ishment may come to him it will be but martyrdom.
 It is probable that the result will pc speedy disintegration of Shiloh. Sand ford must have a strong personality and be a remarkable man in many ways 70 have built up such a colony and kept i1 going. But he has shown himself to be a dangerous man. and as District Attor- ney Whitehouse remarked in court Shiloh
 is a danger spot tbat should be removed from the community.

TWO ROBBERS WERE DASHED
The Whipping in Wilmington Was

From the Brooklyn Standard Union.
 Wilmington, Del.-With arms tied to the extended posts Of cross and with backs barred to the gale, two men were lashed in the courtyard of the county workhouse recently as part payment of the toll the state exacts for their crimes.
 John Brewington received 70 lashes with a cat-o' -nine-tails. in addition to which he will serve two years in state prison for highway robbery. Arthur Johnson re- ceived 20 lashes and will serve one year for larceny.

The whippings, as are s.l Delaware wfIippings. were public, and a morbid crowd stood against the prison wall and saw the heavy leather strap with its nine thongs cut deep into the quiver- ing flesh of the wretches. .--e>
 The men were to have been lashed early in the morning, but the degree ger weather chilled Warden Crawford himself to such an extent that he postponed the whippings until the day warmed.
 In the afternoon. when a degree rise in the temperature was noted. Crawford bundled himself up in fur lined over coat, put on heavy gloves and ordered the men brought out.
 Each wore heavy blanket wrapped about his neck and hanging down across the chest, but his back was nude. The prisoners hands were encased in gloves, as their extended arms were lashed to the cross, but the wind bit and the snow pelted against their naked backs. -s.+-

SILHOUETTES THAT NEVER FADE
By c. F. MARKELL

Ii was the soft sweet hour of sundp
 in the month of May when I sailed out of the harbor of Beirut for a marine ramble amid the classic isles of the Aegean sea and the Saronlc gulf, isles that seemed to float and smile by day and float and nod by night and I do not recall ever having beheld a more en- trarcing vista as with Asia adieu' upon my lips I. watched the incandescent peaks of Mt. Sunnin glinting meath a dying ray and breathing spectres benediction up- on the city nestlng at it's feet and al- ready wrapped in shadow.
 My boat. the Tewf1kieh of the Khedi- vial line, was if possible more crowded with steerage passengers than was the vessel that brought me from Port Said to Jaffa. and the open lower deck was a living kaleidoscope of human figures, pre- senting every tone of hue, shade and color. While at first they amused and entertained, they robbed us of much pleasure ere the journey was half com p1eted, for under the rays of a pitiless sun they sought the shelter of the cov- cred. deck of the first class passengers and mild mutiny prevailed. Their first pretext at aggression was shade in which to offer up their prayers, but 1t was not lons ere they remained upon this deck and the chairs was monopolized by Ara bic. Syrian and Turkish women and children.
 Appeal to the captain was futile as he admitted his inability to control the throng and his apprehension as to arous- ing anger.

ders, the tomb of Mausolus. Then we passed Patmos robed In the hazy garb of distance and the dim mystery of Johns vision of the Apocalypse, and Sanos. the birthplace of Pythagoras and the retreat of Antony and Cleopatra. I was par ticularly impressed with the latter which rose in rocky proportions direct from the sea and was clothed in purple. This is the color of royalty and what spot was more fitting for the establishing by that wondrous Queen of Egypt of court of love and luxury? Samian wines were famous but the delicious romances of the island were more intoxlcationg than the juice of her grapes. Icaria was viewed where aviation was not so successful as 1t is in these latter days. and at mid night we approached Chios. For miles out the atmosphere was laden with the de- licious perfume of the orange and I was greatly amused at Greek who desiring to air his knowledge of English said to me: Do you hear the smell of the or anges?' It was a loud smell to be sure
 but most delightful one.
 Chios derives it's name from snow and it was one of the seven claimants as the birthplace of Homer. Chian wines en- 5oyed world wide repute and it is sad that for 7Q0 years there was not case of marital infdelty known upon the island. I had heard much of the beauty of Smyrna as approached from the sea, but was not prepared for the ncomparable loveliness which this city on the hillside presented as we entered it's arbor early in the morning. Long rows of white and yellow houses with red and blue tiles climbed the mountain in a bewildering labyrinth of crossed and criss crossed ] streets interspersed with olives, olean-

At 9 o'clock we were In the harbor of the city of Mytilene, where the "tenth muse" was born.
 What poetic fancy has not trembled at mention of this name so interwoven with passion and all that makes life worth the living? Love ran through her veins and those of her kindred as a sponge laps up the wine. Her brother Cha raxus cast conventionalities to the winds at bidding of the winged god and brought back with him from Egypt the fair Doricha, surnamed Rhodopis the rosy checked, of Naucratis; the lesbian zingerella herself so loved her husband, Cercylas of Andros, that she fled with him to Sicily and after 25 centuries we know that her passion for her daughter, Cleis. was such that she would not re- linquish her for the entire kingdom of Lydia. nor for heavenly Lesbos itself.

Mahogany Hunting

From the New York Press.
 Mahogany hunters in Central and South America are men requiring much skill and experience, and in some districts the revenues depend largely upon the success of their endesvors. Mahogany trees do not grow in groups, but are scattered and an entire day to fell tree. On account of the thick thorny growth about the base of the tree, 1t is the custom to buil,l a scaffold around 1t, and to cut the trunk at a height Nf 10 or Is feet from the ground. By this wasteful method. 1t is said, the best part of the tree h lost Freed from its branches the trunk is hauled by oxen to the neareat river, whore xafts arc made.

Next morning I was aroused by the firing of cannon from the Turkish forts, for We were entering the Dardanelles, which entry is always accompanied by such salvos.
 The forts are two in number and both are equipped with Krupp guns They are called castles. the one upon the Asi- atic side being chanak-Kalesi, the earth e1ware castle. and that on the H,,ro- pean side Khilid-bahri, the lock of the sea. and they are just a little over a mile apart This was the Heelspont, where Heel was drowned, across which Lean der swam to meet Hero and in a final attempt met his death. and which was spanned by the wonderful bridge of xer- xes In 4S0 B. C. It is just 5 miles in length and connects the Aegean sea with the Sea of Marmora. There is a beautiful legend connected with the drowning of Leander that may rot be known by all of my readers. When Hero discovered that her lover had lost his life she threw herself from the watch tower, crying, 70 Leander.' This refrain was taken up by some shrubs upon the shore and SO constantly repeated that the plant was given the name oleander and it is said that if one listens attentively when the wind moves these plants he can still hear them cry ing faintly, 70 Leander'"
 Then we entered the Sea of Marmosa. the "vexed Parpontis' of the ancients, vast lake TO miles in length and as placid as it's name indicates. As the sun set saw its dying ray reflected from the dome of Ste. Sophia. and In an hours time I was in the city of the Turks and reclining upon the luxurious divans of the Pera Palace hotel I had passed through dream, but in my dreaming had caught silhouettes that shall never fade.
