Crystal palace was originally built

Of 1851. being afterward removed to
its present site and re-erected. At
the first state opening Of the palace by
Queen Victoria it was urged that the
usual artillery salute should not be
fired. the reason given being that the
concussion would shiver the glass roof
and the company assembled below, in
Guiding her majesty, would be cut into
mincemeat. Dire were the predictions
Of the scaremongers when the design
for the palace was made public. The
first gale, they said, would inevitably
wreck it, while the heat engendered by
the sun pouring its rays upon the
dOmed glass roof would be so terrific
that no human being could withstand
it. Consequently if they escaped an

the settlers in the southwest of Penn

the creation of new state. It origi-
mated in connection with the troubles
between Virginia and Pennsylvania,
and the scheme was brought forward
early In July, 1776. A description Of
the proposed government defines the
bounds as beginning at the eastern

The Gallipoli Blunder.

England is not waiting for the close
of the war to bestow blame for its mis-
takes in its conduct. special COM
mission has just reported on the Darda-
nelles fasco in terms of remarkable
frankness, which, while they may cause
a prolongation of the dispute, neverthe-
less lay an official foundation for an es-
tablished judgment in history. The blame
is distributed. Winston Churchill, then
first lord of the admiralty; Lord Kitche-
ner, then secretary of war; Lord Fisher,
then first sea lord, and Mr.. Asquith, then
prime minister, are all accredited with
share of the responsibility for a cam
paign that cost Great Britain heavily
both in men and prestige and netted
nothing whatever of military or politi-
cal advantage. One of these four men
is dead, his fame in general secure,
even though it may be at present cloud
ed somewhat by the charge of blunder-
ing at Gallipoi. The others remain on
the field, though not in their high of
fees.
That the Dardanelles campaign was
a ghastly blunder admits of no ques-
ton Whether it could have been prose
cuted to success with different plan
or more efficient cooperation or better
luck in the matter Of weather is ques-
ton for strategists to discuss The fact
remains that it failed utterly of its OBJ
ject, which was to drive the Turks back
to Constantinople and thence inland
leaving the path open between the
Black and the Mediterranean seas. 1t
accomplished only one purpose, to re-
Eeve somewhat the pressure on the Rus
SLAMS operating in the Caucasus, but in
asmuch as the Russian campaign in that
area, after making considerable prog
ress, has not yielded any tangible re.
suits, this effect was negligible. As il
turns out, had the man power wasted al
