Maharajah of Mysore Is a
 Strictly Modern Potentate

Tn the present crisis the British government has had no reason to re- gret that the native princes of India, have been permitted to retain their crowns and much of their former power. One of the most loyal of these dusky potentates of ancient In- dia is the youthful Maharajah of Mysore, who was born thirty one years ago today, June 4, 1884 Mysore ranks second in importance among the feudatory states, being surpassed only by Hyderabad, and has area of 29, 444 square miles. The mahrajah has about five million subjects. The
 naharajah is a strictly modern po- tentate, fond of motoring, polo, racquets and other European pas times, and he has encouraged the adoption of modern methods of in dustry among his people. The nnaharajah has a passion for all things American, and his palace con- tains many articles of American man ufacture. His great pipe organ, which was built in Ohio. His tele- phones are of American manufacture and the palace is lighted by electrici- ty, with appliances made in Schenec- tady. The whole country has been electrified, by means of two great American power plants, and all the inventions of the worlds electrical wizards are as commonplace in

Mysore as in the most progressive of American and European cities. The iron poles supporting the electric light and telephone wires in Mysore were imported from Pittsburgh Wooden poles cannot be used in Mysore because they are so quickly destroyed by the voracious ants All of the food served at the maharaj jah's table is cooked by electricity. Like most of the present-day princes of Indian the maharajah of Mysore is well educated and versed in all the refine1nents of European civilization to music, and he is the patron and director of a native band which is said to be one of the best in Asia. The mara jah succeeded his father twenty years ago, but was not invest ed with full ruling powers until his eighteenth birthday.
 Mysore has had several changes in dynasty within the last few cen turies. In 1761 Hy1er Ali de- throned the reigning sovereign. and was succeeded by his son, Hippo Sahib, noted as a foe of the English Hippo was killed in an English as- sault on his capital in 1799, and the British placed a prince of the old royal family on the throne. This ruler was without an heir and he adopted a boy who succeeded him at his death in 1868 and assumed the gov efnment in 1881.

UNITED BRTHEREN

The first organization of the Church Of the United Brethren in Christ was effected at meeting held in Frederick county, Maryland. in 1900. The founder of the sect was Philip William Otterbein. who was born in Nassau, Germany, 189 years ago today. He came to America as German Reformed missionary in 1752. Tn 1766 he joined with Martin Boehm, of the Mennonite Society, in a great revival. He was reluctant to separate formally from the German Reformed church. but differences in doctrine led him to take that step in 1900. when the United Brethren church was launched The new de- nomination spread from Maryland and Pennsylvania, westward, and it's stronghold is now in. the west. The church is Arminian in doctrine, very aggressive in work. and characterized by a strong reform spirit. There are now two bodies of United Brethren. with total of 2,264 ministers, over 4,oO0 churches, and about sso.0OO conmunicants. Otterbein, the found CT and first bishop of the sect died in 1913.
