THE CHAUTAUQUA

Several canvassers have been out irving to sell tickets to the Chautau- ma They report that they found a aood many people who did not know there would be such a thing in town. t is strange that this would be true among intelligent people when so i'm uortant an event is being advertised in the papers and streamers and ban ners are hung everywhere announcing if This is the first Chautauqua that Prescott has ever had. If the attrac- tions are anything like the average, it will prove an intellectual help and be worth considerably more than the average vacation to the average man or woman. It is an event which we should encourage in every way pos sible because it makes for the welfare of the town and community and mak life more worth while in these ends of the earth.
 It is true that a large majority of us are living as though the dollar and the material goods of this world are the chief end in view. The large ma iority of us would deny that this is true and yet we practice it. Next week should be real vacation for the people of this community generally. There is no special reason why busi- ness should suffer, because it is not a strenuous business season and it is good time to have time. Turn loose and go to the Chautauqua. If you attend the first meeting the chan ees are you will attend all Do not forget the children.

KING GEORGE
CANNOT TAKE
C0STLl sGIFT
Pearl Ikon Made by ArabIans
Remains in London Await
ing a Claimant.

LONDON, April IA mother of
pearl ikon, OF the Lords Last Sup
per-" almost identical to that pre-
sented to the Emperor of Russia by
ing on the outbreak of the late war
with Italy, Is in London awaiting a
claimant 1t was destined for King
George, but,because 1t Is not an ofic-
iaI gift 1t cannot be presented to him,
and, since no one else has right to
accept it, the ikon remains without a
master.
The history of the ikon began when
Italy cast covetous eyes on Turkeys
Tripolian possessions. The Sultan in
need of friends, determined to turn
to mis- powerful netghbor on the north
and in true Oriental fashion decided
to accompany his oyertures with
gift. He ordered the Kobi, an Ara
bfan tribe celebrated for its mother
of pearl work, to make an ikon of
the Lords Last Supper for presen-
tation to the Russian Emperor. 1t
was no small order, for the mother of
pearl had to be carried twelve day
camel journey into the interior from
the seashore.
While the tribe was at work on the
ikon one OF its members, who had
served in the British army paid
visit to his old home, and when he
saw what was being done he insisted
that it would be the grossest dis
courtesy to his royal master il sim
liar gift was not made for King
George The only difference between
the two is that the Russian gift is sur
mounted by the imperial arms of Rus
STA while the English image bears the
royal arms Of Great Britain.
When the Russian gift was finished
the agents Of the Sultan paid for it
and carried it away, but the Kobi
tribesmen did not know how to send
the replica to King George. 1t was
finally taken to Sir John Gray Hill,
of Liverpool, who maintains winter
home on the Mount of Olives in Je-
rusalem. Lady Hill paid the tribes
men for their work and brought tho
fkon to London.
Museum May Get 1t.
The ikon is made in the form of
half room with the front elevation
surmounted by the royal arms. The
figure of the Saviour and his disciples
about the table are done in full re-
lief in solid mother of pearl. The
work is very complete, even the
smallest table utensils in mother of
pearl occupying their ordinary place
on the table The workmanship is
exquisite and the design eScellently
done. 1t is probable that if no means
can be found for delivering the ikon
to the king, it will find resting
place in some London museum
