Tbit is an era of centennials and monu¬
ment*. The discovery of America, close
of the Revolution, inauguration of the
national government and many other
events happened in an order which
crowds the anniversaries. Among the
many important monuments may be
mentioned that erected to Lin mens by
the Swedes of Chicago, that to be erected
to Col ambus by the Italo- Americans,
that at Trenton, N. J., and those at
Gettysburg, and in many other fields of
the late war.

TITS STATUE OF MNNASUS.
The recent unveiling of the monument
to Unnreus was a poetic and attractive
affair. Little Vista Lindbloni, daughter
of the president of the association,
dressed in the garb of the peasants of
Ortorgotlaad, pulled the rope at the ap¬
points! time; the blue and yellow ban¬
ner of Sweden fell at once, revealing the
body, bet the stars and stripes caught
on and fluttered around the head for a
few moments. Another pull and the
American flag fell, then the great Lin¬
naeus stood forth in academic gown,
with scholarly frown upon his face,
while the flaxen haired Swedes raised
their national shout and the band played
an inspiring air.
The statue is of bronze, heroic size,
and rests upon a white marble base, and
around the pedestal four allegoric fig¬
ures are pla<»d representing the four
sciences in which Linmsus was emi¬
nent. The work is copied by C. P. Dy-
ferman, of Stockholm, from the memo¬
rial in that city by Kjellborg. The
Swedish Linnaean Monument associa¬
tion, of which Robert Lindblom is presi¬
dent and John R. Limlgren treasurer, is
a Chicago society, aud the statue stands
In Lincoln park, of that city.
Carl Von Linne, that being his family
nan>e, was the sou of the pastor at Sina-
lund, whore the boy was horn, May 24,
1707. He died in Upsal, Jan. 10, 1778.
His uame was Latinized when he be¬
came eminent, as was the custom of
scholars at that time. He i3 best known
as a botanist. The publication of his
•System of Nature" is regarded as mark¬
ing an important epoch in the progress
of science.
The monument at Trenton has been
many years in preparation; congress has
appropriated $30,000, New Jersey $15,000,
and $15,000 more are to be raised before
the needed sum is secured. The work,
however, is under way and the construc¬
tion is to be by Mr. John EL Duncan, of
New York city. The design is simple—
a column of victory in the style of the
Roman dortc, the shaft and base of light
colored granite, and the statuary, both at
base and apex, in bronze.
"The base is to be of rough hewn stone,
and will be thirty-four feet square and
within will contain a chamber for the
reception of relics of the battle and also
of the Revolutionary army and the com¬
manders who fought at Trenton. The
main doorway will be flanked by bronze
figures of an infantryman and cavalry-

In 1889 Cavalier Charles Barsotti, edit¬
or of II Progresso Italo-Americano, set on
foot a movement to erect in Kew York
city a monument to Christopher Colum¬
bus in 1892. The preliminary work pro¬
gressed rapidly,

lected, as well as objects to the value of
about $5,000 for n t.ur to bo held in 1892.
A Committee of 1.000 Italians Is being
organized, each agreeing to collect ten
dollars in small subscriptions to enable
all Italians in the country to contribute
something. The monument will be
given to the city of New York both to
commemorate the discovery and testify
the loyalty of the Italians to their
adopted country.
The survivors of tho One Hundred and
Eleventh New York Volunteers will on
the 26th of June dedicate a monument
at Gettysburg that will add another to
the many memorials marking the scene
of Pickett's charge. The veterans of the
regiment who at this date answer to
the roll call number several hundred,
and the dedication of their monument
will be the occasion of a pkvisant re¬
union on the field of their moat trying
struggles and their sweetest triumph.
The One Hundred and Eleventh has
good cause to remember Gettysburg and
to be proud to have a monument on
the slopes of Cemetery Ridge. The regi¬
ment served under Hancock, in Hayes’
division of the Second corps. On July
2, 1863, when tho Confederates had
broken up Meade*B left wing and Sickles’
Third rorpa was engaged against enor¬
mous odds, General Hanoock, whose line

adjoined Sickles' on the right, hastily
gathered some troops from his oommand
and went to Sickles’ aid. While doing
so bis own line was attacked by a Con¬
federate fine of battle that overlapped
Sickles' front. The last brigade in iris
moving column was led by Colonel
George L. Willard, and the One Hun¬
dred and Eleventh was the last regimen*
In tho brigade.
The danger to his own line caused
Hanoock to order this brigade to halt,
face about and move back obliquely
screed tho Confederate front. During
this march and counter march the bri¬
gade was subjected to a heavy fire from
the enemy's artillery. A charge was or¬
dered upon the advancing Ocmfeddrafces,
and was most gallantly executed.
Colonel Willard was killed, and the
brigade suffered terribly. The One
Hundred and Eleventh bore the brunt of
the fight on account of its closeness to
the enemy. The Confederate charge at
this point was repulsed.
The next day, July 8, the regiment
lay in Hancock’s line near Ziegler’s
jjrove, and maintained a steady musketry
upon Pickett’s charging column.
The Gettysburg record of the regi¬
ment, which is inscribed on the monu¬
ment, is more suggestive than volumes
of praise. It is as follows :
Reached Gettysburg early morning, July S.

relief of 3rd corps In afternoon.

The Ono Hundred and Eleventh was
organized In the counties of Way no and
Cayuga in 1863 and served to the end of
the war. It had the unique experience
of being captured entire, having been in¬
cluded in the surrender of Harper's Per¬
ry, Va., where it arrived three weeks
after ite muster in, Aug. 29, 1802.
The monument is of Gettysburg and
Quincy granite, with a figure in bronze,
representing a skirmisher in action. The
movement to erect a memorial was be¬
gun at a reonion of the survivors of the
regiment, held at Auburn in 1888. The
sum of $1,200 was contributed by the
survivors, and this amount, with the
$1,500 given by the state, furnished a
fund of $3,700.
The monument committee consists of
General C. D. McDuugall, Major fL J.
Myers and Sergeant C- J. Stupp, of Au¬
burn, and Captain M. W. Murdock, of
Venice Center. General McDougall will
deliver the address of dedication. He led
the regiment at Gettysburg and was
wounded in the charge of July 2.

'
EDISON, TH E MOP£ 7.4 WIZARD.
He Hu Joel Invented a Mnehiae Mere
Wonderful Than XU Pr e d eco—ora.
“KinetograpiT is the newest word.
And a very odd one it is to American ears,
but if Thomas Alva Edison Is not sadly
mistaken it is soon to be as common
as phonograph or telegraph. The thing
it represents, however, is certainly far
more wonderful than anything yet known
In the line of projecting sound or intelli¬
gence. It is nothing more nor lees than
telegraphing motion—that is,every move¬
ment of an actor on the stage can be re-
sorded oh cylinders and reproduced at
will, and that in seemingly continuous <
movement and not with the successive
maps of the "'magic lantern."
The first problem was to take instan¬
taneous photographs in such rapid suc-
seesion that no break could be detected,
and Edison can now do that. The impres¬
sions are recorded on a long roll of gela¬
tine paper fastened to a spindle, which
passes over a photographic Ions.
This is how Mr. Edison himself de¬
scribes the wonder*. "The machine starts,
moves, uncloses, stops, takes a photo¬
graph, closes, starts, uncloses, stops,
takes another, and so on, and forty-sis
of these are recorded every second.”
And this process can be kept up for
thirty mi notes without a pause. 6o 2,760
photographs can be taken each minute
and 82,800 every half hour. Thus the
full representation of say, an opeTa, the
movement on the stage and mnsic can be
recorded.

THE KI.VETOGRAPH.
Two machines must work together, as
the company at theater or opera gives a
full dress rehearsal. Ono records mo¬
tion, the other sound, ami they inn3t
work together to a fraction of a second
too minute to be detected by the eye, as,
if the gesture fell behind the sound, or
vice versa, the result would be ludi¬
crous. Mr. Edison already has his first
rude model in operation in his work¬
shop at Menlo Park, and one wlio hat
been allowed to see it operated says: "It
is a regular photographic machine im¬
pelled by an electric motor. In the top
of the box was a boio abort the size of a
silver dollar. The machine was started
ondJI locked through the orifice. Wl>»<
I saw was the form of a man about an
inch in size bowing and raising hi.s hat.
The motions were natural and continu
ous, and no break could be detected lx?
tween them. The picture I r.aw was only
ft negative, photographed on an endlcsf
slip. At the greatest rate of s-iieed uc
gap coni-1 be noticed between the bows.
They came along smoothly and naturally.
But when the speed was decreased to
twenty or thirty pictures per second the
difference was at ojjce noticeable. The
motions became jerky and irregular.”
Dr. Dwmfi on the Moslrm Nwl.
"In what light do j*ou regard the mod¬
ern novel?” was recently asked Dr.
Deems, pastor of the Church of the
Strangers, in Now York.
"I am hardly prepared to answer, be¬
cause it is such a multiform question.
There are novels and novels, and sorao of
them are better than some preaching, and
aoiao of them tire worse than some curs¬
ing. Take it all together, so for as 1
hove been able to perceive, there has been
a steady advance «nd improvement in the
department of fictitious writing, and J
think the promise is that this branch of
literature is to become purer aud bettor
oontinuHily. When the Christian minis¬
ter remembers that the discourses of his
Lord and Master, with all their sparkle
and splendor, are the most exquisite and
inimitable novelette?, he can hardly find
fault with those disciples of the master
who write such books as ‘Ben-Hur,’ and
the stories of George Macdonald, of the
Misses Warner or Mrs. Amelia E. Barr
and others, nor can he find a fundamental
objection to the employment of that
style In elucidating archaeological and
philosophical principles.”
5To* All Mines Will r»y for Working.
Of all the mines in the world which
yield silver, certainly not more than one
in twenty will pay for the working, and
of those that pa \ barely pay. Not more
than one in tw ’ .ty pay more than fair
wages for the labor employed. All thfe,
tf the word "mine” be used in its true
and scientific sense, moaning a fissure in
the rock filled with vein matter, through
which silver is diffused. In fact, in the
true sense of the word, stiver mines are
very numerous—it fa the bonanzas that
are scarce. There are whole mountains
in the west literally thickset with crev-
loes, in every one of which there is some
silver; but few, very few, are thoee
which create sudden wealth. Silver is
to be a precious metal for many a decade
to come.

Loarnrd Dr. Philip SHiaff — VttrWrf of
Dr. Baluford ami Dr. Parkharwt.
In these times of theological unrest
and heresy trials any minister who
takes a new charge or resigns an old
position is liable to be called on to state
hfe motives. Recently a rumor arose
that the venerable Dr. John Hall was
about to resign as chancellor of the
University of the City of New York.-
This was promptly followed by another
that it was ‘‘because he was in sym-
mm
A_ f "jj
A Wil %
DR. W. S. RAIRSFORD — DR. JOHN HAUL,
pathy with Dr. Briggs.” It turns out,
however, that Dr. Hall only took the
place temporarily when Dr. Howard
Crosby resigned; that his duties are but
nominal and he draws no salary, the
official work being done by the vice
chancellor, Dr. Henry M. McCracken.
Dr. John Hall, so long considered the
embodiment of pure old orthodoxy,
comes of a stock that is noted for that
quality, for lie is of Scotch descent, and
was tiom in County Armagh, Ireland,
July in 31, 1829. After winning high hon¬
ors Ireland he was called in Novem-
her, 1867, to his
present position J
in the Fifth Ave¬
nue Presbyterian <s
church. Another,

19*8. He was ed¬
ucated ia Canada, and graduated from
Princeton in 1865. After serving as min¬
ister end professor in various posts he
was in 1881 called to the chair of the re¬
lation of philosophy and science to the
Christian religion, at Princeton. In 1888
he was made president of that institu¬
tion, and oonttnues to uphold the old
sia^dards unflinchingly.
At tbto head of the creed revisionists
and prominent in IHe so called "liberal
school is the learned Dr. Philip Schaff,
whoee disciples feel for him a fervent
admiration. He
was born in
| Switzerland, Jan.
1,1819, and at the
age of twenty-five
was lecturer in
the Berlin uni-
4. versity on exege-
sis and church
"3 history. In 1844
A he was called to a
professorship in
the German Re¬
dr. ramp SCHAFF formed Theolog-
* ical seminary at
Mereereburg, Pa., and in 1845 was tried
for heresy but acquitted. In 1863 be
moved to New York, where his labors
in every form of church work have been
enormous. His published books form a
large library, and in the details of church
history his friends claim that he is with¬
out a rival on this continent.
Among the younger divines charged
with "irregularity” is Dr. William
Stephen Rainsford of St. George Episco¬
pal church, New
York, who sig¬
ned! sued his Lent¬
en services this I?
year by inviting
non-Episcopal
clergymen to
serve with him,
as did the Rev.
Heber Newton.
He ha3 since \
preached a ser¬ ri
in on indorsing
Dr. Briggs. He
was born in Dub- dr. o. h. parkhuest.
Rn, Ireland, Oct. 80,1850, and graduated
from Cambridge in 1872. After service
in Canada he was called to New York in
1083, and received from Trinity the de¬
gree of D. D. in 1887. His "liberalism”
takes on a lightly humorous tinge, as in
this sentence in a late sermon: "Creeds
are crutches by which poor, lame hu¬
manity can bobble toward God; but it
never was intended that they should
be used as dubs by Christians with
which to break each others’ heads,”
La st to enter the list, and probably the
most severdy>5riticlsed at present, is Dr.
Charles Henry Parkhnrst, of Madison
Square Proebyterian church, Nerw York,
whoso recent sermon on "heresy hunt¬
ing” might, perhaps, be called the sensa¬
tion of the hour. He was born in Fram¬
ingham, Mass, April 17,1843, and grad¬
uated from Amherst in 1866. After
traveling, teaching and serving six years
as pastor Lenox, to the Congregational church
at Mass., he was called to New
York in 1880.
