Beulah.

BeQldus
Beulah Is one of the Oldest and
most sacred OF the religious names.
It means married" and is the con-
tracted form of the title Land OF
Beulah." As an allegorical name,
it was prophetically applied to Is
rael in Isaiah: Thou shalt no
more be termed Forsaken; neither
shall thy land any more be termed
Desolate; but thou shalt be called
Hephzibah and thy land Beulah: for
the Lord delighteth in thee and thy
land shall be married"
When the vogue for religious
names passed at the outset of the
10th century, Beulah suffered 3
temporary loss of popularity. But

Gus Pappas. claimant of the Ameri-

two in three falls from Charles Rent

TWO falls III three. in the finest eXhi-
btion of the head spinning game ever

Pappas took the offensive at the

What is TO be the largest statue in
the world is being built by an army
of Japanese workman on the Isle of
the Cows Head, in the Inland Sea,
which has been called the Mediterra-
mean OF Japan. The Isle of the Cows
Head is private property and this
adjournment is a work of private enter
prise.
The figure will be that of St. Mich

wooden model the saint lies asleep. fac

The Colossus of Rhodes, at one time
one of the Seven Wonders of the
World, is said to have been 120 feet

feet above the pedestal, in New York

During this 3O-minute period, Rent
rop clamped several dangerous holds
on his opponent using a head cham
Gerry and bar arm hold with consider
able frequency. but Pappas. by mere
brute strength, would squirm out of
them.
Finally, Pappas secured top posi-
ton and within a few minutes he had
clamped another hammerlock on his
opponent. Rentrop tried desperately
to break the hold, without avail, ana
at 1928 seconds. Referee White patted

Much interest was attached in pub
lie utility circles to q recent report
made by George Il. Chamberlin, Amer
ican consul ut Glasgow. Scotland con-
cerning the Chemical Works Depart
ment of Glasgow Corporation, which
was instituted about eighteen months
ago, as an adjunct of its gas depart
lncnt, for the purpose of manufactur-
ing chemicals from the gas residuals,
which it is expected, will help to re-
duce the cost of gas to consumers. 1t
was the custom until about year ago
for the corporation to dispose of the re-
siduals to private firms, from which it
received a sum for the use of the build
ings and equipment and certain
amount for the materials. When the
chemical department was formed ex-
periments were carried out which re-
suited so favorably that the municipal
ity decided to terminate the contracts
with the private firms and to undertake
the whole of the work itself.
1t is proposed to center the refining
processes at the Provan works and to
carry on crude distillation at the other
three gas works and to considerably
increase the existing plant. Refining
will commence Mt once. The principal
chemicals to be manufactured are mo
tor benzol, pure benzol, toluol. solvent
and heavy naphthas, and carbonic acid.
The department will also consider the
advisability of making dyes and inter
mPdiates. From the new installation
about 100 tons more of tar will be
made per day. The revenue last year
from tar and ammoniacal liquor was
81 ,401 $50, and a conservative csti-
mate places the net revenue from these
sources for the current year at ST.,
946, 600.
