R M COLOSSAL BUDDHA,
This Statue Is Said to Be the Target
In the World,

The largest monument Of the human
form existing in the east today, If not
in the world, is the great reclining
statue of Buddha near Pegu, in Bur
ma, around which the government
erected a building with lattice steel
pillars to protect it from the elements.
This colossus was brought to light dur
ing the construction Of the railway
that runs northeast from Rangoon to
Mandalaye
While the permanent way was being
banked up to protect the lines from
occasional floods the engineer in charge
required for the purpose Of his work
a harder ballast than the alluvial de-
posit over which the line was running
could give him. Less than Il mile away
was a tree clad mound, and here, it
was thought, suitable material might
be found The task of clearing away
some Of the trees took but an hour or
so, and then shafts were sunk to find
the needed stone. Before the diggers
had gone down more than Il yard they
struck an enormous and fairly pre-
served figure of Gautama.
In actual length the statue is $50
feet and fifty feet high at the shout
der. The figure and its pedestal are
Of brick, covered with plaster. Since
its discovery the plaster has been re-
moved and painted over, the box at
the head and the finger nails gilded
and the headdress decorated with
glass jewels. The statue is thought to
be about 500 years old, but no n
knows its history, no reference what
ever being made to it in Burmese leg
ends or traditions.-Wide World Mag

A GREAT PREHISTORIC SEA.
1t Reached From the Gulf of Mexico
Far Up Into New York,

1t Reached From the Gulf of Mexico
Far Up Into New York.
y prehistoric sea or arm of the ocean
which extended from the gulf of Mex
leo far up into New York state is de-
scribed by the United States geological
survey in reporting to a correspondent
on a rock sample:
The rock was formed very long ago,
many millions years ago, in what ge-
ologists call the Devonian period. At
that time Il large part of the eastern
United States was occupied by an
arm of the sea which extended north
eastward from the gulf Of Mexico re-
gion into New York state. The cast
ern shore of the sea was not far east
Of the present line Of the Blue Ridge
and the Highlands of New Jersey and
southeastern New York. and still far
thcr east lay a great continent which
extended an unknown distance into
b area now occupied by the north
Atlantic. The northern shore Of the
sea was somewhere near a line drawn
from Albany through Syracuse, Roch-
ester n Buffalo. The present site
Of the Catskills was thus near the
northeast end or head of this sea or
gulf, with land not far away on the
east and north.
THE sea teemed with life. almost
wholly inv%ertebrate animals, and ma
rine plants. and the larger part Of the
life appears to have inhabited the sea
bottom. Brachiopods, though rare now,
We're very abundant then, and many
other forms Of animals crawled about
or grew upon the sea floor. AS the
streams washed in sand and mud from
the neighboring lands the sea grad
ually filled up. and the shells of many
brachiopods and other shell bearing
animals were thus buried in the sand
and their forms preserved till now.
By slow upward movement of the
earth's crust the sea was drained from
the region, and the beds of sand and
mud that had been hardened into sand
stone and shale were lifted thousands
Of feet above sea level to form a great
new land. The Catskill mountains
have since been carved from this up
lifted mass Of rock through the cut
ting Of valleys by the streams"

Ruddy Mars.

There seems to have been no reaso
other than its suggestive color for the
selection Of the planet Mars as the &C.
lestial symbol Of the war god. Yet it
was universally ST regarded in ancient
times.
If we could tell why Mars is red we
might hit upon the whole secret Of that
strange planet. Its color is probably
due to some peculiar quality Of it's soil.
1t may be principally composed Of ma
terial resembling u red sandstone, or
it may be stained red by an abundance
of iron in its rocks.

And the next morning came further
orders to leave the Moewc. We steam

manned at a great distance and drew
near only afterward to pick up some
wounded who were sent to us in order
to get them quickly under medical
treatment.

she was ever a freightcr. whether

puzzled the world since he brought the
Appam to the Virginia capes in the
dawn a few days ago Lieutenant Berg
repeated patiently:
"She is the Moewe.'
He was willing, however, to so into
these further details Of his trip across
the Atlantic:
Generally speaking, our trip across
the Atlantic was without incident. We
saw no warships, but met several mer-
chantmen. On our arrival we were re-
ceived by American authorities very
nicely. Although + am satisfied to have
carried out my duty, I would prefer
very much to ba back on the Moewe."

genuine in 'rThe Merry Widow" and
followed it up last season with an
other sensational hit, "SalS," which
comes to the opera house on Feb. IL
direct from all seasons run in New
York. The music for "Sari" was writ
ten by Emmerich Kalman who is a
Hungarian from Budapest, but all
Hungarian operetta comes under the
classification of Viennese. He ranks
high in the great sextette of '"Vien-
nese" composers, consisting of Franz

hardt, who wrote ''The Spring Maid !"
Oscar Strauss, composer of "The
Chocolate Soldier" DR.. Leo FAN. who
has "The Dollar Princess" TO his
credit, and Edmund Eysler, composer
of ''The June Bride"
Kalman made one other big hit in
Europe before "Sari;" It was called
Autumn Haneuvers," and in the
United States, "The Gay Hussars."
The music of "Sari" is recognized as
the best he has so far composed. A
new operetta Of HIS was about to be
produced abroad when the war broke
out and caused postpOnement. On
that account it may receive It's first
production in this country.

Marguerite Clark, in ''The Prince and
the Pauper."
Mark Twain's beloved story of ''The
Prince and the Pauper," the first of
the great American humorist's works
to be filmed, which the Famous Play
ers Film Company is presenting at
the Isis today on the Paramount pro-
gram, relates how the little Prince
Edward, weary of the routine life Of
the great palace of the king, wanders
forth to the palace gate in search OF
amusement. He arrives in time to see
the guards abusing ragged urchin
whom they are about to expel from
the premises and who bears remark
able resemblance to himself. Inter
ested by the boy, the prince orders the
soldiers to desist and then proceeds
to question him about the life he
leads. Enthralled by the vision of
freedom which the beggar child re-
lates to him, the prince envies the lad
his position.
The beggar child, his mind teeming
with the stories of princes and then
countless riches, which he has heard
from the lips of the parish priest, is
entranced with the thought of being
in the presence Of royalty. So when
the prince declares that he would
willingly change his life for that of
the pauper, the bargain is soon struck
and the two change their clothes.

Viennese Operetta Composers Lead
the World.

1t was but few years ago that all
the light opera produced in this coun-
try came from London and Paris. All
that has been changed since the adj
vent of "The Merry Widow" some
years ago. Viennese operetta has now
become synonymous with excellence.
Many managers, if they can't get a
real Viennese operetta, have an imi-
tation written in this country.
Henry w. Savage introduced the
