Mrs. Catherine Kane of 2S9 Pearl

burning end and walked on. But a

shgang cness

The Trademark Of the Northern Pacific
Railway, since its adoption by the com.
pany in 1893. has become very familiar
figure in the transportation and CONNER
cial world. 1t is unique in its historical
significance and adaptation as the symbol
OF a transportation company.
The symbol is Chinese in origin and is
known among the Orientals a. the Great
Monad. in divergent form it is seen
among the Japanese and Koreans and is
also found among other eastern peoples
Indeed. the study of the figure a, to its
appropriateness for a trademark for the
Northern Pacific, resulted from seeing it
embazoned upon the Korean flag at the
Chicago Worlds Fair, in 1898.
The original Chinese diagram itself
dates back to the eleventh century, A. D..
but the ideas or principles which it repre-
sents, or is supposed to explain. extend
back to many centuries before the Chris
tian era, being, in fact, more than 5000
years old.
The story of the Monad in all its vari-
ations, is most interesting and is told in
detail in booklet fresh from the press
called The Story of the Monad". pub
lished by the Northern Pacific Railway
Company and sent upon request by A. VI.
Cleland, General Passenger Agent, Saint
Paul, Alinn.
The booklet is illustrated with numer-
ous interesting cuts showing the Monad
in its several modified forms that illus
trate its various meanings and uses. both
ancient and modern, for it has its modern
applications as well.
The story illustrates the strange pecu-
liarities, even the vagaries. of the human
mind as it reveals the divergent uses to
which this symbol has been put. Based
upon the discovery of peculiarly formed
cave. Chow Lien Ki, a learned Chinaman
of the llth Century, used it to illustrate
system of philosophy established by
Fuh Hi 5000 years B. c., and of which
Chow Lien hi was devotce.
The two spiral like forms in the center
of the Monad and Trademark are known
as the Yang and Yin and have a sexual
significance. and this notion is reflected in
every subject referred to in connection
with the symbol The Monad represents
light and darkness. heat and cold. rest and
motion, mind and matter. One of the
theories based on this unique symbol re-
sembles the nebular hypothesis. The
figure is used to ward off evil. as a good
luck sign, in China, and as such is for sale
in stores.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1912-09-03

In modern times il is a curious fact that
the present manner in which our own base
ball covers are cut was suggested by the
Yang and Yin of the Monad
Again, in our own land, we find orna-
mental colored figures upon baskets, shell
disks. etc, made by the American Indians,
in various parts of the country. Whether
these specimens OF Indian art. often more
or less crude may or may not be merely
initiative, or whether they may, indeed,
have a deep and intrinsic significance to
the Indian, it is a fact of much interest.
This is particularly so ii the latter sug-
gesti9n be true Among some of the
tribes in the North Coast, the real North.
ern Pacific country itself, Monad basketry
is found. In view OF the fact that there
is a widely prevalent belief among an
thrQpologists and ethnooGsts of the
present day that the origin of the In.
dians" is, at least in degree. Asiatic,
this fact may be a really significant one.

LION HUNTER HAS
THRILLING COMBAT
tFrom Thurs1ay's Daily

George Ainsworth. OF Walnut
Creek, is well qualified to claim the
belt as the champion lion fighter in
the state, from conflict that oc-
Cured last week in the Juniper
range Of mountains. in hand to
hand fight that was attended with
danger to the man, and which re-
suited in the wounding OF his horse
and the killing OF Ms trained dog.
Accounts OF this episode were OBJ
tanned yesterday from arrivals from
Walnut Creek, together with the re-
ceipt OF the hide OF the lion by Joe
Drew.
AT the time Mr. Ainsworth was
attacked he was riding along in the
snow about twelve inches deep. and
in passing under tree the lion
jumped from limb onto his horse,
alighting just behind the saddle. In
its plunge the lion threw its claws
into the flesh of the horse making
several wounds.
Realizing his perilous position,
Mr.. Ainsworth jumped from the
saddle with his Winchester in hand,
and commenced firing, Al this time
the dog attacked the lion, and il was
an extremely difficult, matter for
him TO continue shooting under
these circumstances. fearing that a
bullet would reach the dog that he
valued highly. In about fifteen min
utes afterward. however. a bullet
found the vital spot and the lion
fell dead The dog was found to
be badly wounded and later died
Mr. Ainsworth is an experienced
lion hunter, and attributes the at
tack made on him To the fact that
the lion was hungry. and had been
unable for the past ten days TO get
anything to eat from the deep
