.SATAN'S THRONE IN BERLIN
Not, However, the Seat of the kaiseTs
Authority, as One Might Reae
sonabIy Suppose.

In order to understand where the
throne of Satan came from and how
1t came to Berlin, it Is necessary to
open the pages of ancient history and
renew our acquaintance with Perga-
mum.
PerSamum (PergamOs or Pergamon)
was the ancient capital of Mysia, In
Asia Minor. 1t was about three miles
north of the Caucus river and fifteen
or twenty miles from the Aegean sea.
Under the Greek rule of Attalus /
(241-197 B. c. it became not only
powerful city but also the center of
the artistic and literary life of Asia.
Attaius built many wonderful
temples, alrars and monuments that
attracted the attention of the entire
world. His son Eumenes II G97-l59
b. CO carried on the policy of his IA
Their. He founded the famous Perga-
mum library, which cont\ned 100000
volumes. This library was later re-
moved TO Egypt by Antony and pre-
sented by him to Cleopatra.
Attalus III bequeathed his treasures
and the kingdom of which PerCamum
was the capital TO Rome, and so. at
his death, in 1873 b. c., IT became a
Roman province. This was the first
Roman province on Asiatic soil.
Carl Human, a civil engineer, who
had travelled in Asia Minor, induced
the Berlin museum TO fit out an expe-
dition to eXcavate for the hidden
treasures of ancient Pergamum. In
1886, at the close of the third cam
paign. Human and a friend named
Come unearthed the great altar and
the site Of the library. Subsequent
expeditions uncovered many treasurer
The great altar was shipped, piece
by piece, to Berlin rnd re-erected in
the Kaiser Friedrich museum. 4 few
parts of II are in Co1Stantinople.
However. the central and main por.
ton of Satau's throne is in Berlin.
With the throne Of Satan i'm Berlin
1t is not difficult to understand the
military ambitions ard actions Of the
German government.

Walks Upside Down.

Because he walks upside down as
well as right side up, the black-and-
white warbler is also frequently called
the black-and-white creeper says the
American Forestry association of
Washington, which is conducting the
national birdhouse building contest.
This bird has been called symphony
in black and white because of the
beautiful manner in which these two
colors are used over his body. His
head Is barred black and white with
white stripe over each eye he has
wing bars On each wing and the inner
webs of his outer tail feathers are
white patched. This bird gets most
of his food by gathering insects and
grubs from the crevices in the bark OF
trees, thus destroying pests which
might work injury TO fine trees.

THE RUTHERFORD CASE.

To the Editor OF The Evening Journal
Sir: My object In writing 10 you Is
10 seek TO interest you In getting a
pardon for Joseph T. Rutherford,
President Of the International Bible
Students Association, and his asso-
ciates, all official members OF that re-
liglous organization. These noble
Christian gentlemen were thrust into
prison some seven months ago. under
the pretense that what they taught in
terfered with the war. yet these same
interpretations OF the Bible were taught
by Pastor Russell for thirty years or
more, all over the civilized world.
We are told that Italy imprisoned
about 5000 Socialists and paciflsts
who designated as political prisoners"
now that the war Is over, these have all
been set free, yet In this country. the
greatest Of all countries, the country
In which religious liberty had its place,
we hold in a federal prison, at Atlanta,
seven OF the noblest Christian gentle
men, who never had a thought OF
doing anything to interfere with the
war.
Their only thought ana only purpose
was TO preach the Gospel OF Jesus
Christ" as they understand IL. Surely
the constitution OF the United States
guarantees them this privilege.
Il is true that what they teach lays
bare some Of the errors that have been
handed down from the dark ages, and
while these noble men are loved by
thousands who have had their hearts
made glad by the good news Of the true
gospel, they are also hated by some |
who love darkness rather than light.
Among the latter class are many sup
posed ministers OF the gospel. that took
advantage Of the war and war condi- !
tions 10 persecute these, whose shoes 1
they are not worth to unlace
We sincerely hope that your love for
freedom and honesty will inspire you
TO give this matter your prompt atten-
ton. Most respectfully,
NJ. l.. RlTCHlE.
