And It Camel
to Pass
And it came to pass that the city
of Seattle which is by the Sound
called I’uget, waxed strong ano nour
ished as a green bay tree, and the in
habitants thereof grew and the city
became mighty because of its people.
And many ships were builded within
the gates of the city, even ships of
the nation.
And behold, there came to the city
many workmen to fashion the ships
because of the great need of them.
And there came also a few men
culled “radicals” who sought to sot
the workmen against their employers,
and against the government and the
chosen rulers thereof.
And much mischief was done by the
radicals who inflamed the workmen,
saying, "Ye are poorly paid, why will
vp toil with your hands for so paltry
a recompense. Hearken unto us, re
fuse to labor until your employers in
crease your stipend.”
And many of the laborers heard !
the injunction of the radicals and wot1
not mat uic iv.uicuis ucnocu ™ |
throw the government and its rulers
and do violence to all in authority.
And many more did hear the radicals
and divined their hidden purpose, but
feared to raise their voices against
them lest they be dealt with harshly.
And after many days it came to
pass on a fixed date the radicals com- ^
pelled all who worked with their
hands to cease from their labors, and
refuse to do aught.
And all the people were seized with
a great, fear because the cars ran not
through the streets, neither did the
jitney pursue its usual coarse and
many threats of violence were heard,
and much inoonvenience was fastened
upon the inhabitants.
Mow Ole of the Tribe cf Hanson,
Norseman, was the ruler of the city,
and when he saw the evil which was
being wrought to all the people and
the defiance of the radicals of author
ity. he was very wroth with righteous
indignation for he knew that great
harm was being done to the laborer as
well as to the employer.
And he arose and girded up his
loins and smote his breast and called
for his Chief of Police, cue Joel F.
Warren, a mighty man of vilor, whose
stature was very great, and who
feared no man. And the ruler, even
Ole, said unto the Chief, “Canst thou
with thy valient band provide full pro
tection. for these my people who suf
fer. for I will Issue an edict directing
business to be resumed as usual at 8
a. m. on the morrow.”
Then the chief, raising himself to
his full height, which is head and
shoulders above other men, answered
the ruler saying, "Verily I with my
men are fully prepared tc offer the
fullest protection to all the people
against our common enemy, and
should any there be who openly defy j
thy authority or seek to destroy prop
erty or life, I will drive them before
me until their bats float over them
in the waters of the Sound.”
And Ole the ruler was much pleased
for he knew it was even as the Chief
had said.
And Ole called in a scribe and
caused a parchment to be written re
assuring all the people even the labor
ers and bp donnrncerl the radicals as
“revolutionists,” “reds,” “bclshevists,”
“enemies of the government.” And he
tore from the radicals their masks,
which had hidden them.
And all the people heard their
ruler and took heart, and they said,
“Surely God is good that such a just
and fearless man is our ruler,” and
the name of Ole Hanson was mighty
throughout the length and breadth of
the land. And his people loved him
and also his Chief for the salvation
which they vouchsafed, not only to
the people of Seattle, but the whole
nation. ' <*
And the deeds of Ole became an
■example for the rulers of other cities
of the land.—Relgnaps.

Strong and Deplorable Contrasts
Existing In Alaska.
The native Alaskan of today Is be
coming In some sections, an Intelli
gent and progressive factor in the life
of the territory. Recently a daugh
ter of the Hydah tribe made applica
tion for United States citizenship, and
after examination was pronounced
qualified to exercise Intelligently tbe
duties of an elector—the first native
woman of Alaska to receive citizen
ship. Her father Is a staunch elder
of tlie Hydaburg Presbyterian church.
All through southeastern Alaska, na
tives are taking up homesteads, organ
izing villages upon sound civic princi
ples. reading the daily papers, putting
telephones and electric lights into tiieir
homes—in a word, are proving the
value of Christian citizenship.
But there is another side to the pic
ture and the contrast between the
unchurched and the Christian Alas
kans is distressing. Scores of villages
In the Bristol bay region live where
no Protestant missionary has ever
been, and the one Greek priest who
had ministered to the needs of 1,700
people is now dead. The revolution in
Russia has cut off the support of Rus
sian missions In Alaska, leaving the
spiritual destitution and physical
wretchedness of large numbers of
these people wholly unrelieved.—The
Home Mission Monthly.
HONOR IS GIVEN TO ITALY
The director of the French school In
Rome, Monsignor Duchesne, has sent
the president of the Royal Italian Geo
graphical society a letter which ac
companies a brief note, most interest
ing to us, regarding the discovery of
the narrative of a journey in central
Sudan at the time when the republics
of Pisa and Venice had stipulated
with the sultan of Maghreb for special
treaties in which he conceded to the
Italians the right to pass through cen
tral Africa on the Niger.
The letter says:
“I write to inform you of an Inter
esting discovery made by Charles de
la Ronciere, curator of prints in the
national library of Paris and author
of important books on the French
navy. The discovery restores to Italy
the honor of having visited and de
scribed the African regions of Tunt
and the Niger four centuries before
the explorations of Rohlf and Challie,
the first a German and the last a
Frenchman.”
The account given of Tunt in 1447
is signed by an Italian by the name of
Antonio Malfante and is directed to
the Genoese Giovanni Mariono. He
was the first Christian to penetrate
to that oasis.—Italian American News
Bureau.
What Germans Must Do.
Under the title “Conquest and Kul
tur,” the committee on public infor
mation issued a compilation of quota
tions from German writers and speak
ers, Including the kaiser 'himself,
to show the Teutonic worship of '
the war god and greed for world con
quest.” The pamphlet, compiled by
Profs. Wallace Notestein and Elmer E.
Stoll of the University of Minnesota,
assisted by faculties of their own and
other universities, lias a foreword by
Guy Staii^n Ford, saying:
“No peace can ever make of Ger
many a fit partner for a league of honor
until the German people have driven
out the spirit which inspired these ut
terances in their name.”
Work of Bureau of Standards.
One of tlie many new undertakings
of the bureau of standards is an inves
tigation of magnetic compasses, in be
half of the naval observatory, tlie joint
utMiiV ■< ml mi vu liniiml rtf7 oiuioifiootiivnu
and iln> shipping board. The bureau
proposes to develop a standard method
of testing compasses and to prepare
specifications for the purchase of com
passes by (he government. A special
form of magnetometer has been de
vised for tiie determination of mag
netic moment and a rotation test for
pivot friction is being developed. The
bureau expects to test several thou
sand compasses in the course of the
present year. (
Did His Part, Anyway.
The day of the peace celebration at
Chicago the school children, acting of
their own volition, formed a parade
and carried out a program, which in
cluded singing patriotic songs, after
which they took up a collection for
the united war work fund. Buddy
had kept pace with the older children
in everything, singing when they sang,
whether the songs were familiar to
him, or not. When he told about it
that evening his mother asked:
‘‘What was It you sang?” “Oh. 1
don't know what we sang," answered
Buddy, still enthusiastic over his part
in the celebration, “but I sang just
the same."
Helped Burn Emperor’s Effigy.
During the celebration of victory
at Genoa, Italy, a characteristic epi
sode occurred in front of the Garibaldi
monument. A group of English sail
ors surrounded by an immense crowd
held a mock trial about the effigy of
Emperor Charles of Austria. They
condemned him to death and hanged
the effigy on a pole, afterward apply
ing the torch. The pole and the elfigy
were consumed. The Americans and
the English took part In all the Italian
celebrations with great enthusiasm.
