The Star for October %, 1894 told
in careful detail how the cornerstone
OF the new st.
81. StePnens Stephens Protestant
Cornerstone Episcopal Church,
Fourteenth street near
Columbia road, had been laid by the
Rev. George Fiske Dudley the previous
day. Among the articles inclosed in
the stone for the attention of future
generations were: Copies of the New
Testament, prayer book. hymnal, parish
periodicals and the Washington daily
newspapers: The architect of the build
ing was the rector's brother, William
Northrop Dudley, an artist of distinc-
ton and bass singer of note. Both
men were energetic idealists, living and
laboring for others. The fruits of their
work are visible at still newer st.
Stephens and the Incarnation, Six
teenth and Newton streets, the con-
struction of which was started in 1925.
Dr. Dudley served A years at the head
of the parish, retired, and then, called
to st. Georges by the River, Rumson,
N. j., in 1887, began all over again. He
died November 18, 1910. and is remem-
bered as a thorough scholar, talented
musician, and an inspiring preacher. His
widow. to whom he VAS married April 4.
1894, resides at the Kenesaw Apart
ments, where she generously says: 'I
will be glad to help anybody writing
about either the first or the second

Accidental this earth her name would
FotoIity appear in print in con-
nection with her going
forth. The reason for present mention
of her is philosophical. Her case Illus
trates how the nature of accidents has
changed in five decades. People come
to their ends by many different proce-
dures, but her lugubrious experience
could not be duplicated today The Star
for October %, 1894, reported that: Miss
Farrells death followed a veritable pea
nut orgie. She ate quart on Tuesday,
another quart on Wednesday and a
pint on Thursday. She was taken i'll
on streetcar Thursday night, and at
hospital died on Saturday night after
an operation had been performed" A
modern Nellie, supposing there were one
wanting two and half quarts of COOLERS
in three days. would be obliged to COM

The origin of bees was a subject of
consideration in The Star of October

Self Greeted forth that the ancients
Sinners believed that the busy
little buzzers were spon-
taneously generated from the carcasses
of animals of the fields and forests which
died obscurely in their native habitat.
This notion, allegedly, runs back for
at least $500 years, and probably much
further. 1t prevailed not only in Eu-
rope, but in Northern Africa and in
parts of Asia. Through the middle ages
1t continued to be entertained, and the
friend of Luther, tina learned and pious
Melanchthon, referred to 1t as a divine
provision" A modern "beeologist"-
George Pelham Walton OF the Depart
ment of Agriculture-has a different
theory, but says it really does not matter
very much, "just so long as you get
the honey"

Arthur tried to get to Vladivostok, an
effort which was turned back by Admiral
Togo in the Battle Of the Yellow Sea.
Togo did not attempt to destroy the
Russians. however, although he had an
opportunity to do so. He was content
to drive them back into Port Arthur,
where Japanese land batteries sent the
Russian vessels to the bottom. SINH
larly, when the Cars Baltic fleet finally
arrived. the Japanese were content to
await and destroy it in Japans home
waters, showing no disposition to 60 out
and intercept the enemy. Again, the
Japanese fleet was fulfilling its primary
mlssion-the protection of the invasion
force and its line of communications.
1t seems most probable that similar
considerations influenced the Japanese
naval command last week. They knew
that Gen. MacArthur's landing on Leyte
was but prelude to the reconquest of
the Philippines. And that, in turn,
would surely cut their communications
to the southwest-to Singapore, to the
East Indies, to the whole of the stolen
empire which still remains in their
hands, and in which many thousands of
their troops are quartered. Hence, the
fair inference Is that the Japanese in
their gamble of last week hoped to
cripple Gen. MacArthur's invasion force
without committing themselves to a de-
cisive battle with Admiral Halseys un-
doubtedly superior naval units. The
available evidence points to dismal
