The Olympic games in 1916 may take

dent OF the international committee,

sentimental, prevent their being held
In Europe in 1916 they cannot he post

France. Individual records will suffer.
because such stars as Jean Bouin, the
great runner. have fallen victims to
the great holocaust. Others no doubt
will follow. and the younger element
will not reach their highest form for
three years or more, but eventually,
the baron thinks. the war will prove
to have been an additional incentive
to physical training.

The Greeks had by that time secured

Biblical references to the location Of
the tomb are Very meager From the
New Testament we learn that the
tomb was in a garden. "in the place

was near the city" and "without y
gate and that the watch. going from

cleaning up in general.
The females. as Il rule. are more
delicate than the males. This is true
in both old and young pigeons.
Seldom do young pigeons produce
their first squads in less than eight
months, and two pairs are about all
they produce before they are one year
Old. The birds in the first pair are
generally small.
The best breeders are birds that are
hatched in April or May, These gen
orally do not mature before October
and seldom breed until the following
spring. This gives them chance to
get fully developed. and they will rear
much harlier and larger youngsters
than those that brood when younger.
Birds have been known to breed when
only three months old, but such early
mating should be discouraged
In order to avoid dark skinned
squads it is advisable not to breed
from birds that have Very dark legs

Don't throw food on dirty and damp
ground. This is a poor system. The
grain becomes sour. damp, and if all
is net eaten up becomes spoiled and
wasted. The best plan is to use trays,
and feed inside the buildings where
no dampnc>S can spoil the food. Feed
as much as will he eaten up clean at

birds go a little hungry than to have
food before them all day, rs some do.

Dunn's "Rard Luck"

\ lot of sympathy, it seems, has been
wasted on Jack Dunn of Baltimore.
Dunn probably made more money last
season than amy other club owner in
the international league. With sales
OF players and receipts from exhibition
games Dunn has made hay while the
sun shone. while other International
magnates having only regular attend
anre to depend upon, are all badly in
the hole on the seasons operations.
In this connection Art Ray in the
Rochester Union writes: MANY a man-
agcr and club owner in the Interna-
tional league could take Il few notes
from Dunn and profit by them. Dunn
for Il time had the best team in the
league. Receiving no support, he dis
mantled his club and now has the
cheapest. 1T would not he surprising if
Dunn is making more money than any
club in the league. His showing for
the entire season. at least, should be
best of all. The $4,000 he received for
the sale of his best talent looks like n
fortune to some of the club owners
who are paying big salaries to their
players each fifteen days, only to see
them play to empty benches. Dunn is
not an object of pity. Instead. he
should be congratulated"

A door so low that the visitor can
pass only by STOPPING gives entrance
to the inner room, pointed out rs the
actual burial place Of Jesus. which is
hardly more than six feet square. The
stone on which the body Of the Re
deemer lay is raised three feet above
the ground and, covered with mar
bic slab, is used as an altar. 1nas-
much as only four persons at a time
can find room in the small chamber,
the Catholics, Greeks and Armenians
are obliged to take turns in perform
ing services.
The Church Of the Holy Sepulcher
is surmounted by dome. Beneath
the dome Is a rotunda, off which is
the Chapel Of the Apparition, mark
ing the place where the Saviour first
showed himself to his mother after the
resurrection. But this Is only one Of
many sacred associations pertaining to
the ancient basilica. Just inside the
main door is the stone of JUNCTION on
which the body Of Jesus was laid
while it was anointed by the holy wo-
men before burial.
Where Christ Was crucifed.
On entering the church the visitor
ascends to the top of stairway, where
a tablet set in the wall states that this
was the place where Christ was strip
ped of his garments For it should
be understood that the sacred editice
here described actually covers the rock
of Calvary, and Il long strip OF mosaic
in the floor marks the spot where
Jesus was nailed to the cross. Be
meath nearby altar is the hole or
socket In which the cross was planted.
1t is lined with silver. The holes for
the crosses of the two thieves are on
either hand little to the back.
On one side of this altar, incosed by
a silver railing is the rift made in the
rock at the moment of the death of
Jesus. This cleft extends downward
to Il hollow beneath. known as the
"grotto of ADAM because the skull
of the first man is said to be buried
there.
The Church of the Holy Sepulcher in
Jerusalem stands. supposedly, on the
site of the GOlgotha Of the New TeSta-
ment, the tomb cut in the rock in
which the body Of our Lord was in

of church has occupied the site since

Emperor Constantine, two churches

Modcstus, abbot Of the Monastery Of
Theodosius, started work on three new
churches completed in G26 which were
called the Church of the Resurrection,
Church OF the Cross and Church Of
