The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1913-05-21

St. Paul's, which is the most con-
spicuous building in London, is the
fifth cathedral in size in Christendom,
and resembles St. Peters at Rome, al
though it is smaller. In the form of
a Roman cross, it is 500 feet long,
11S feet broad, and is surmounted by
a great dome which is 1854 feet to the
top of the cross. Two campan1le tow
ers rise from the front, one contain
ing a fine set of chimes, the other
supporting the largest bell in Eng
land, "Great Paul." which weighs 16
tons.
Best seen from the Thames or the
opposite bank, the majesty and gen
erous dimensions of the cathedral and
it's dome are apparent. Near at hand
it is so hemmed in by business streets
and blocks that it cannot be viewed
to advantage.
While in a less degree than West
minister, St. Paul's is still the resting

!. When st. Paul's aCthedral was
being rebuilt by Sir Christopher Wren
in the seventeenth century, stone
was needed for one of the porticos,
and one of the workmen brought
from the ruins of the former church a
piece that was put in place. After
ward 1t was seen to bear the inscrip-
ton "Resurgam'' Il shall rise AGAIN.
This old Latin word, carved upon
some ancient grave, embodies a re-
markable fact about st. Pauls; for
upon this site there have been no
less than five churches, each of the
first four being destroyed and new
one rising from it's ruins. 1t is GER
tain that there was church here in
the time of the Romans, which was
destroyed by the pagan saxons and
rebuilt by Ethelbert, King of Kent,
in 61O. This was burned in 961, and
rebuilt within the year. This, too,
was destroyed in 1887 and a new one
begun, which was completed in 200
years. In 1851 the spire of this
church was destroyed by fire, and the
building fell into dilapidation,, much
of the material being used to put in
to other buildings. The remains
were destroyed by the great fire of
1866, and it was eleven years later
that Wren undertook the construc
ton of the present edifice, which was
completed in thirty-t1ve years. The
funds were raised by tax on coal.

place Of many of Englan Is most not
ed dead. Most of her great soldiers
and sailors, artists, architects, and
musicians, lie here. Chief Of these
are Lord Nelson, whose bier stands In
the crypt exactly beneath the center
of the dome, and the Duke Of Well
ington, the former of whom crushed
the forces of. Napoleon on the sea, the
latter on the land. In the crypt Is
the enormous funeral car that bore
the Iron Duke to the grave in 1852.
1t was cast from cannon that he cap
tured from the enemy.
Among the other noted dead that
lie here are General Gordon, the
martyr of Khartum; Lord Cornwall
lis; the artists Sir Joshua Reynolds,
Benjamin West, Lawrence, Turner,
Sir John Millais, and Landseer; Wren:
who built the cathedral; and Sir
Arthur Sullivan, the composer.
At the base of the dome is gal
lery where a curious thing has oc-
Cured. The dome is SO constructed
that the slightest whisper at one side
of the gallery may be distinctly heard
at the opposite side, 1OS feet. away.
It was on the pavement in front of
St. Paups that Queen Victoria knelt
in 1897 to give thanks on the occas-
ion of the sixtieth anniversary OF her
accession to the throne. -. .%@@r

HAS CHANGED MANY TIMES
Vlcissitudes Of the Silver Dollar Dur,
Ing the Many Years That II
Has Been Coined,

The silver dollar has undergone
many changes since it was put in
circulation in 1894. On the face of
the first dollar there was stamped the
head of a young woman, turned to
right and with her hair flowing az
if she was in a gale of wind ; but, in
1876, congress came to her relief
and ordered her hair to be tied up
with bit Of ribbon. The l. stars,
which appeared on the first dollar,
were after this reduced to the orig
inal 13, in recognition of the NUM-
Der of states. In 1886 the design
was again changed and the dollar
bore the figure Of woman dressed
in q flowing garment. The design
er forgot, however, to put in the Is
stars. and the coin was discarded
the new design having the woman
surrounded by stars. Her hair was
defiant and stiff looking, and in 1898
dollars were issued which we're more
artistic in treatment. The first dol
lars bearing the motto "In God We
Trust were coined IN April, 1864,
and in 1873 the era of the trade dol
lar began, lasting just five years. The
liberty dollar made its appearance in
1873. Miss Anne ", Williams. pub

The Case of a New
Mexico Senator

When the four new Senat-
ors from Arizona and New
Mexico drew lots for the long
aud short term, Mr.. Fall Of
New Mexico, changed the bal
lot he WAS about to withdraw
from The box, thus getting q
year tenure of office in
stead OF six. Mr.. Fall, who IS
clever, went back to the New
Mexico legislature while still
III session, and had himself
e-elected for a full term to
begin with the close of his
short term. Now the Governor
and other powerful officials of
New Mexico declare the cleo
ton Of the full term illegal,
and the legislature of the state
has before it the problem of
filling the place for six years
which already has a claimant,
with fullrights ofa "squatter. :"
But since Fall has been max
ing a good record i'll Washing
ton lie may be able to handle
the situation by being elected
again which would make three
