sons who knew of the existence of thu
Vanderbilt mason believed that thu
figure was erected as tribute to 8
struction of the house, but Richard
Hunt, architect, who with his late
father, Richard Hunt, ST., built the
house, said the figure was at once
joke on and a tribute to the senior
Hunt
'The Vanderbilt home" said Mr..
Hunt, was built during the transition
period, when it was customary to adorn
the roof with a sculptured figure OF
some sort The masons and sculptors
were continually after my father to
tell them what kind Of figure he
planned to use, but he kept putting
them off, saying there was plenty OF
time to decide after the house was
finished.
"Finally, when walking through the
nearly completed building my father
observed screen in the large hall
way, and directed the workmen to re-
move it. Behind the screen WAS q
culptor-Kipson, quite well known at
that time-putting the finishing
touches on a study Of mason at
rest, with his, square paper cap on his
head and a mallet In his hand. He
had used as his model my father, who
frequently put on mason's cap and
took an active part in the work.
mfr. Vanderbilt liked the figure
and that's how it happened that the
mason was put up"
The only other figure of an artisan
grazing a wealthy home in New York,
so far as could be learned, is heroic
statue of steel puddler, which stands
on the lawn before the Charles M.
Schwab mansion on Riverside drive,
Mr.. Schwab was a steel puddler HIM
self before he was discovered" by
the late Andrew Carnegie.

Tibet, the religious and secular head
of that secluded country, has to work
harder than the average British or
American business man. He gets up

iabOrs until midnight, Notwithstanding
the fact that he is unquestionably the

Is one of the few Europeans who have
mastered the Tibetan language and
this helped him to become friendly
with the head of all Tibet.
"He paid me the honor of inviting
me into the forbidden Enclosure of his
country palace" said Sir Charles.
Climate Is Cold.
"This was little wonderland Of
flowers, birds and wild animals-a hid
den retreat where he gives deep
thought both to his religious and state
affairs Hundreds of canaries were
singing here, and there were also
stays, pheasants and a great tiger
from Bengal"
THE climate was intensely cold
when Sir Charles arrived and for days
the temperature indoors never rose
above freezing point. In the place of
window glass Tibetans used sort OF
wax cloth. 1t lets the wind In, but
they are a hardy race and do not ap

Mutton, yak beef and pork are the
staple diet" Sir Charles went on.
"Tibetans do not like either chicken |
or eggs. They do not sleep on beds,
but on the floor, on which are placed
large downy cushions. You lie on top
of these and fold them over you. They
are very comfortable ana warm.
Heavy Garments Worn.

TO BUILD CANAL
FOR HOLY LAND
Zionist Organization Resurrects
Plan Brought Gut by Duke
of Sutherland.
DIVIDED into TWO SECTIONS
Proposed Cut Would Open Trade Route
by Way of Sea of GaIlee and
Jordan VaIIey-Would
Increase Humidity.

| Jerusalem - The Zionist organiza-
ton has resurrected the old plan of
constructing a 250-mile canal through
Palestine as supplement to the Suez
canal. This project was first brought
out twenty-five years ago by the late
duke of Sutherland, but was buried
unceremoniously by Sultan Abdul
Hamid because Of his opposition to
progress.
Traffic through the Suez canal has
become so cOngested these days that
1t is claimed an alternate canal route
is required. Zionist leaders have be-
come convinced that the ever-expand-
ing trade relations between continen-
tai Europe and the Far East have
reached such dimensions that a canal
in Palestine would fill an urgent need
and reap untold commercial benefits
for Palestine
Canal in Two Sections.
AS planned by F. A. Maier of Hol-
land, its ardent supporter, the canal
would be divided into two sections, one
Of which would extend from Haifa, on
the Mediterranean, to Afuleh on the
Lake of Liberals, or Sea of Galilee.
Then there would be an intervening
part to be formed by proposed JOr-
dan lake to extend from the Lake of
would be filed with Mediterranean sea
water. Having crossed the Dead sea
the canal would begin again at Ara
bah, at the foot Of the sea, and extend
to Akabah, giving access to the Red
sea-
While the building Of such a canal
would necessitate the submergence of
a considerable tract of fertile land as
well as few towns and villages (along
the Jordan), it's champions claim that
the advantages would far outbalance
the loss.
Would Increase Humidity.
1t is claimed that the proposed Jor-
dan lake would increase the humidity
of all Palestine, which now suffers
from excessive heat and dryness, thus
improving the climate as well as the
vegetation. Also, 1t Is asserted, the
Jordan valley and the desert lying to
the east with the prairies south of
Houran, owing to the increased area
of water would become great centers
for colonization and development.
With these climatic benefits must be
reckoned- the commercial possibilities
in the scheme. Haifa might become 4
second Port Said, a touching place to
ships of all nations. Raw materials
from Europe and America, so much
needed for the building up Of indus
trial enterprises in Palestine, and
which now are being held back due
to scarcity OF calling ships, would be-
gin to flow more freely:

I Bowie.-The Colored State Normal
School, located at Jericho Park, lit
tie more than mile north of this
place on the Pennsylvania Railroad,
was totally destroyed by fire. 1t is
thought the fire originated in the fur
mace room, the probable cause being
combustion of gases from the use of
soft coal. The building, which was
three stories and basement construct
ed of brick, was built in 1911 by the
State of Maryland. Col w. S. Powell,
of the Ellicott City Times, being chair
man of the committee having in
charge its erection. The cost of the
building was about $4,000. At the
time the blaze started there were no
classes in session but about 20 stu
dents were in the apartment on the
third floor, used as dormitory and
recitation room. All escaped but lost
all their wearing apparel and personal
effects.

ACCEPT RESIGNATION
 PRESIDENT T0WNLEY

MINNEAPOLIS, May Is. - It was announced here on Saturday by the Executive Committee of the National Non-Partisan League, that the con- mitiee had accepted the resignation of A. c. Townley as president of the or ganization. The announcement came as a complete surprise, and was un- accompanied by any reasons for the
 action Townley was the handspring and vital force in all activities lead ing to the growth and present strength and expansion of the league. There has been some criticism of his the ories as being too far advanced for most of the members of the league, particularly among the farmer mem- bers, who are essentially conservative.
