St. Marks Church, New York.

The site of St. Marks church Is the
oldest church site in New York and
has been consecrated to religious serv-
ice for 2G0 years. Peter ~Stuyvesant,
the Dutch governor of New Neither
lands, erected the first little private
chapel in 1900. He and his wife, Ju-
dith, were buried underneath the chap
el. In her will she left the church to
the Dutch Reformed Church of New
York, providing that the tomb be pre-
served. The building was allowed to
fall into decay until 1893, when Petrus
Stuyvesant, a great-grandson. proposed
to the vestry Of Trinity church hat
an Episcopal church be erected on the
site. the cornerstone OF which was laid
in 1875 and the church completed LAY
Q, 1899. The steeple was added In
1929 and the porch n few years later.
Since 1859 no material changes In the
present appearance Of the church nave
been made, and the church proper is
identically the same as 1t was n
hundred years ago. Peter S~tuyvesant
and his wife are buried in the vault
beneath tha porch Of the church.

"kosher" Neat.

According to Jewish law, the word
kosher" means tremendously clean"
All animals or fowls to be 'koshered"
are killed by a rabbi or his deputy, the
chief difference between Jewish and
Gentle Strengthening methods being
that the Hebrew uts the throat with
u first stunning the animal by a blow
on the head. as is usually done in other
than kosher killing. This seems to be
based on the theory that the conscious
animal bleeds more thoroughly than
one that has been stunned, and, ac.
cording to Jewish belief, no blood must
remain In the meat when 1t is con
sumed. Partly In an effort to make
this absence of blood doubly sure. the
Jewish housewife usually salts her
meat heavily and allows 1t TO stand In
the salt at least an hour. The salt Is
then washed off and the meat prepared
for eating.

Limits Of Submarine.

In a contribution to the submarine
versus-battleship controversy, Admiral
Sir II. Bacon, quoted in the Scientific
American, states that because of the
CONSTITUTIONAL conditions attending
submarine design, a craft which navi-
gates below water loses a large per
cent of her surface fighting efficiency.
Ton for ton, the fighting and scout
ing efficiency of a submersible craft
of whatever size is only about Is per
cent Of that of the surface vessel.
Sir George Owens Thurston, naval
director of Nickers, Limited, gives fig
ures to show that a submarine of $3.50
tons, having a surface speed of 30
knots, could mount an armament of
only one 5.5-inch and one 3-inch gun.

FAITH THAT WAS PRACTICAL
of Dominic Joe That He Would
MAKE Good"

Up in the Catskill mountains there
lived a mOuntaineer who believed that
he had beer called to preach the Cos
pei. He got a license. but he could
get no church to preach in. Indeed,
there was nc church within many
miles of where he lived.
For Il while Dominic Joe, as he was
called, preached in the schoolhouse,
but, as he was always saying, what
he wanted was "a real proper house
of worship" During week days he
was a Woodworking farmer with
lneager resources; and whenever nc
spoke of a church to his hard-work-
ing n%eighbors they would shake their
heads as if they thought him a little
queer.
But the dominic did not give up his
plan. Indeed, as time went on he
thought of little else. He even Sc
lected IA site for the church-a pref
ty knoll at the edge of his farm.

The secretary to the President was
no more than a head clerk In the ex-
ecutive office up to Cleveland's first
administration. But Cleveland brought
with him as secretary n remarkable
young man named Daniel s. Lamont,
who had served him In a like capacity
in Albany. Lamont was a nan of
great natural ability and gifted with
extraordinary tact.
The mar who happened to hold the
post Of private secretary to a Presl-
dent-elect is altogether likely to be
appointed secretary after his chief has
reached the White House. He pre-
sumably enjoys the confidence Of the
new President, understands his ways
and policies, is accustomed TO the
handling of his work, and is person
ally acquainted with his friends. A
helper with this equipment, whose efii-
cheney is proved, cannot easily be re-
placed.
Mr.. Cleveland was,a man who was
likely to rufle peoples feelings. La
mont was suave and pleasant-man-
nered; he made things smooth. SO
popular did he become with the folk
en- Capitol Hill that they decided TO
give him a lift. He had been mere
ly private secretary" with a modest
salary of two thousand a year. They
created by legislation the Office of Sec
rotary to the President. with pay at
the rate of five thousand dollars. The
job for the first time was made
of dignity and decent emolument.
Cleveland went congress one better
and made Lamont secretary Of war.
incidentally, when Lamont relin-
quished his place at the end of the
first Cleveland administration, 1t was
with such a reputation that big bust
ness welcomed him with open
arms, and within a few years he was
rated a multimillionaire.
Edwin DENLY, secretary of the navy,
married Marion Bartlett Thurber,
daughter of President Cleveland's Sec
rotary. She was a member of the

the reason why flies run their feet to-

a quarrel and decided to ask the gov

wrong and gave orders to have them
both whipped, and 1t made the spar

FIy's Wonderful Tongue.

The so-called tongue of the fly Is
not truly a tongue, but a tube with
an expanded end, which the scientists
term a ~'ligula." Through this ligula
the fly obtains its nourishment. The
fly does not need to get down to its
food, but draws 1t upward by means
of this trunk or ~proboscis. Nature
recognized the fact that the insect
had many enemies and that it must

sign he decreed that sparrows should

When he was fourth assistant post

President Roosevelt made him his priv

Cortelyou made a most efficient Sec

manner and gifted with exceptional
tact, he was "A born diplomat. 1t Is

called him 1.-THE great American prom
iser." Even if the person calling on
him a a total stranger, he would
listen politely, write Special on the
persons card and indicate that the
matter should receive immediate at

Anyway. Roosevelt liked him well
enough to make him a member Of the
cabinet, where he filled three places
in quick succession: Secretary of COM
merce and labor. postmaster general
and secretary of the treasury. Later,
the erstwhile shorthand reporter ac-

An interesting prediction is that
sooner or later we shall have a pres
