A curious story is connected with
the bells of Messingham church. Eng

ago a traveller passing through Mes

stile in the churckyard and calling out,

ing no bells, tney called the folks to
church in eths way. The traveller re-
marked that it was a pity so fine a
church should be without bells, and at
the same time asked the men il they
could make three for the church if he
would pay them himself. They readi-
ly agreed 10 do this BY trade the three

The first real peal of bells or chimes
in England was sent by Pope Calixtus
III. 10 Kings College, Cambridge, and
for 300 years this was the largest peal
in the country. Peals came into gem
eral use about the beginning of the
year 1900. when sets of eight bells
were hung in many of the leading
churches. When first introduced chime
bells We're rung by a number of men
each grasping a rope from one partic-
ular bell and striking it at the precise
moment the leader pointed q finger at
him for signal. The custom origi-
mated in Europe, and was imported to
this country when the first chimes were
brought over. This was shortly after
the countrys independence was de-
clared, the new bells being placed in
Trinity church, New York City. 1t re-
quired seven men to ring the seven
bells. and it was not until 1900 that Z,

FAMOUS BELLS OF HISTORY.
Russia, Japan and China Possess the
Four Largest in the World.

There is a legend that in the olden
time an Emperor of japan desired for
his largest temple a bell of tone and
power unequaled in all the world. He
called bellmaker and, in the fashion
of Oriental autocrats, he made the
condition that if the bell failed in his
requirements the life of the artisan
would be the forfeit. This condition
was overheard in terror by the bell
makers maiden daughter. During a
sleepless night a god appeared to the
daughter, with the statement that the
blood Of a virgin mingled with the
metal would most certainly produce a
matchless hell. The next day as the
metal was about 10 be poured into the
mold the daughter leaped into the
molten mass, thus mingling her blood
with the metal. The resultant bell
was of far-reaching tone and of Il
sweetness never before realized, and
it greatly pleased the Emperor, of
course.
II is said the bells as now used in
churches were the invention of Pau
lus. Bishop of Nolo. in Campana.

doors with a hammer In the four
tenth century bells very largely took
the place of clocks. The hours of the
day and night being divided and the
people notified thereof by the striking
of the hour on the bell. Bells have
not always been round despite their
shape today. The oldest bells often
were of quadrangular form, made of
thin plates hammered and riveted to-
gether. In Switzerland there is still
preserved at the monastery of st.
Gall the four-sided bell of the Irish
missionary of that name, who lived in
the seventh century.
Perhaps the most famous bell in the
world is the first great bell in Mos
COW, now. standing in square in that
city, and so large that it is used as a
chapel This bell was east in 1888, but
was in the earth for more than 100
years, being raised in 1896 by the En-
peror Nicholas. 1t is nearly ~ feet
high. has circumference of 60 feet, is
two feet thick and weighs almost 2oC

Another very large bell is in the
grounds of an old temple in Osaka
Japan This one was east in 1903 to
perpetuate the memory of a certain
Prince Shotuka, who lived nearly 1,3o(
years ago. 1t is formed largely from
contributions OF all sorts made by pi'

Justice for Nrineo, Saunders,

At last there is justice in sight for
poor old Mingo Saunders.
This faithful and upright soldier
and patriot after suffering for. years
for an offense he did not commit, is
within reach of the honors tina. were
smatched away by the order discharg-
ing him without honor, along with
his comrades Of the Black Battalion
Of the 25th at Brownsville.
Already President Taft has issued
an executive order transferring him
from minor position at the Navy
Yard in this city to a messengershiD
in the Interior Department at sally
of $840 per annum. Repree entatiyp
w. A. Rodenburg, Of Illinois, has in
trOduced bill in the House provid-
ing for the reinstatement of Saunde, g
in the Army and permitting his retire
ment at once. This will restore him
to his status in the army establish
ment, entitle him to neat sum IN
back pay and a comfortable stiperd
for life, in addition to his salary a.
a messenger in the department Whom
discharged Sergeant Saunders had
served twenty-six years, and after an
other years service, would have bear
entitled to retirement at two-thirds
pay and allowances.
Before the close of the Congressioa

soldiers discharged for participation

Secretary OF the Treasury
Sherman Allen

Another excellent appointment by
President Taft is that of the Hon.
Sherman Allen, of Vermont, as As
sistant Secretary Of the Treasury, to
succeed Dr.. A. Piatt Andrew. Mr.. AL
len was until recently assistant secre-
tary to the President at the White
House, and his promotion is a fitting
recognition of the brilliant success he
achieved in that responsible capacity.
He is the soul of courtesy, and at the
Treasury has already made fine i'm
pTessiOn as a trained man of affairs,
who will administer the office with
due regard for the interests of the
government and the people alike. Be-
fore entering the federal service, Mr..
Allen was the Washington representa-
tive of the New York Herald, and was
one of the mos. popular figures in the
press gallery in Congress and in news

add to his laurels in his new station
goes without the saying. He will
