the Gospel of Luke as "the most beau.
tiful book ever written" The spir-
itual ideals of the Bible are in
mind when men like Theodore Park
er and Renan write so glowingly
about it. But the pure English. the
simple dignity and the unspeakable
charm in the style Of the Bible
have influenced men Of power most
profoundly. 1t is the exact truth to
say that it has formed the style OF all
speakers and writer's who have most
enduring influence for good. From
Shakespeare to Lincoln 1t has given
color to the most inspiring poetry and
prose. Several books have been writ
ten to show Shakespeare's debt to the
Bible. AS for Lincoln, he knew his
Bible, in every line of 1t. His speeches
are saturated with its language and
ideas. His second inaugural reads
like a section from Isaiah. When he
first went East, in 1860, the Professor
of Public Speaking in Yale College fol-
lowed him about to hear his speeches.
James Russell Lowell says In his es-
say on Marlowe, "The English Of Abra-
ham Lincoln was SO good because he
learned 1t from Shakespeare. Milton
and the Bible, the constant compan-
ions Of his leisure. And how perfect
1t was in its homely dignity, its quiet
strength. and the unerring aim with
which it struck once nor needed to
strike more"

TROPHY BELONGED TO DOG
Nothing More Than Duo Reward Of
Little Animal That Had Boldly
Attacked Lion.

Simba, a plucky fox terrier, born
and raised in London, is the only dog
of it's breed which has ever tackled
full-grown lion ''single-handed."
The story of how Simba fought the
lion is told by the dogs owner, Cher
ry Keaton, who went to British East
Africa for the purpose Of obtaining
moving pictures of wild animals. Now.
Simba is an ordinary fox terrier, of
no special value from q breeders
point of view. Its fight with the lion
occurred while Mr.. Keaton was trying
to obtain pictures Of the killing of O
lion by native spearmen. Two lions
20 Nasal warriors, with spears, were
ready to attack. The lioness, however,
escaped, and the male lion, after ap-
pearing for q moment, bolted into q
dried river bed and refused to bulge.
"Simba," states Mr.. Keaton, "darted
into the donga, and within few Sec
onds we heard tremendous roar that
seemed to shake the ground, and the
bushes within IL yards Of US were VIC.
lently agitated. The lion roared
again and again, and In the brief in
tervals we heard the weak but very
furious yapping Of the dog. The
Nasal stool, every nerve tingling, with
spears poised.
Suddenly the lion dashed through a
little clearing, and we were amazed to
see Simba hanging on with her teeth
embedded in its tail. Three spears
were hurled at the escaping beast with
such accuracy that they all transfixed
the heart. and the lion fell dead. You
must know that the skin of the lion
belongs, according to local custom. not
to the warrior whose spear inflicts the
fatal wounds, but to the man who first
rushes in and cuts OF the black tip
from the tail. II
Two Of the three spearsmen dasheds
into the donga, but they found Simba
with the black tip still between her
teeth, resolutely determined to oppose
any hostile claim. The worriors, who
were lost in admiration, agreed that
the skin belonged by right of seizure
to Simba, and they handed It over
later to my wife as trustee for the
dog"

panions got up on the seat outside
with the driver. giving the latter
direction.
After devious route, leading into
the foreign quarter Of London, the
vehicle halted. 1t was within a dark
and lCnely ocurt.
"You may as we'll remain within the
carriage" spoke Hulberts companion.
I'VE will bring the woman down. She
is quiet" and he placed ia peculiar
emphasis on this word, Has agreed.

Five minutes later the foreigners aI1l

A CLINT of light from the carriage lamf
revealed the uncovered face of a beafV
tiful young girl, unconscious, drugged.'
She was placed within the vehicle.
"You will make no miss on the
plans" spoke the man to Hubert.
"All is arranged, is 1t not" replied
Hubert tersely. Then he was some
what disturbed, for the other man got
into the carriage beside him, after
naming dock on the Thames to the
driver.
Hubert had hastily formed plan
regarding what he would do as to the
girl. Theseyident intention of the foy>
eigner to remain with him set awi'1
his project. After they had proceeded
about half mile he-spoke to the
man, signaling the.driver to stop.

rected. Then to the driver, with the
words, drive fast, stop for nothing!"
Hubert reached his own boarding
house. He dismissed the puzzled and
wondering hackman. Then he car
ried the girl up to his room, summoned
the landlady and sent for a doctor.
1t was nearly midnight when the
physician succeeded in arousing the
girl from her deep torpor. For three
hours thereafter she, the landlady and
Hubert, formed trio engaged in ex-
plantations.
The young girl had been kidnapped
from a private school by the foreign
ers. They were professional black.
mailers. Her parents were travelling
on the continent and were immensely
wealthy.
The scheme had been to convey her
to Algeria and hold her in seclusion
for ransom.
At daylight Scotland Yard was no.
titled. From what information HUI
bert could give, the expert police were
able to take up the trail Of the would
be kidnapers. The entire gang were
run down, the matter became public
and Hubert became a newspaper
hero.
There followed the immediate re-
turn Of the alarmed parents of Eunice
Gadsleigh to England. They over
whelmed Hubert with their atten-
tions. They did more than that-they
looked favorably upon the attentions
OF Hubert towards their daughter.

bert found himself stranded. The
charm Of the great city influenced him
to remain within it's confines. He
was literary in his tastes and he had
a vague idea that he was gathering up
material for great novel to exploit
when he got back to New York.
Hubert soon forgot about the
trinket upon his watch chain. Econ
omy was forced upon him, owing to
the state of his exchequer. He had
been eating at cheap odd restaurants
for a week. That evening a some
what unique array of food in the win
dow Of little eating resort bearing
a name in Greek letters over its door,
allured him to enteA the place.
He had noticed while he ate, two
men at neighboring table observing
him narrowly. They were tawny low
browed fellows, suggesting levantine
origin. They kept regarding him and
whispering together in cautious and
mysterious manner. Just as Hubert
arose to leave the place one Of them
approached him. He looked Hubert
squarely in the eye, with q natural mo-
tion slightly drew back his coat, and
there on the lapel Of his vest there
showed the prototype of the trinket
that Hubert wore at his watch chain.
you are ready" he said simply.
Hubert bowed. He recognized In
stantly that he was mistaken for an
other, but the spirit Of adventure pos
sessed him. The stranger seemed to
accept him without question or Quib-
BILE as the person he had been waiting
or looking for.
Your work is all laid out for you,"
he said in q cautious tone, IF your
ship Is at moorings."
Again Hubert nodded.
Then come. Our orders are to
place the woman in your charge"
The woman! A sense of curiosity,
interest, chivalry came to the front
with the young journalist, the ro-
mantle vein in his makeup as well
aroused. The man beckoned to his
comrade. The latter bobbed his head
In token of introduction. They led
Hubert from the place.

seemed to have the most say In the
premises. There is what was given

bank notes to Hubert. "The rest will

Hubert accepted the money. What

When Longfellow (1S07-1sS2) was
thirty-four years old, he wrote in his
diary: This evening it has come into
my mind to undertake long and elab-
crate poem by the holy name Of
Christ; the theme Of which would be
the various aspects of Christendom
in the apostolic, middle and modern
ages" Thirty-two years afterward
the work which he thus projected was
published as "Christus: a Mystery"
During practically the whole of this
period, we are told, "the theme in its
majesty was a flame by night and a
pillar Of cloud by day, which led his
mind in all its onward movement;
and he esteemed the work which he
had undertaken as the really great
work of his life" But the "Christus"
is by no means his only poem draw
ing it's inspiration from the Bible; the
following lines, as one example, are
from the interlude before the Theo-
logian's tale in the first series Of Tales
of Wayside Inn" The references to
various Scripture passages are easily
recognizable; but 30, too, Is the heart
of the poet who exalted deeds above
professions, and who saw that under
superficial diversities there might be
the unity of the spirit in the bond OF
peace:
1 know that yonder Pharisee
Thanks God that he Is not like me:
In my humiliation dressed,
/ only stand and beat my breast.
And pray for human charity.
Not to one church alone, but seven,
The voice prophetic spake from heaven;
And unto each the promise came,
Diversified, but still the same
For him that overcometh are
The new name written on the stone.
The raiment white, the crown, the throne.
And will give him the Morning Star!

the noblest music of the world.
Devotion borrows music's tone,
And music takes devotion's wing,
And like the bird that halls the sun
They soar to heaven, and soaring sing"
The songs of the day are for the
day; but the music that endures is
religious music. The Ambrosian and
Gregorian chants are the echoes of
Bible song. When Handel was dis
couraged by attempting to give opera
in a foreign language, he accepted an
invitation from several notables of
Ireland to visit Dublin. From a friend
he received text from the Bible on
which he composed his immortal
work, known at the first as the "Sa-
cred Oratorfo." known now as the
Messiah" Both in Dublin and in
London this work gave him immedi-
ate fame; and 1t has since crowned
him throughout the world with unfad-
ing glory. The debt which music.
painting, sculpture, and literature owe
to the Bible cannot be fully estimated.
The Bible gave us the Creation" of
Haydn, the works Of Mozart, OF Men
delssohn, and of Beethoven, the grand
chorals of Bach, and the works OF all
the great musicians the world has yet
produced. 1t has been well said that
Haydn has not exhausted the wonders
of creation, nor Handel the glories Of
the Messiah; and there is vastly more
music in the Bible than has ever yet
been heard by the children OF men.
