International Monument to Peace. The first monument ever erected to commemorate the cause of Interna tional peace stands upon the highest point of the Andes, between Chile and Argentina, almost fifteen thousand feet above the sea, and Ita erection marks the close of a long dispute be tween the two countries over their boundary line. Eight years ago these two nations were on the verge of war, building vast warships and spending sums reported as five dollars per capita In the preparation for war. About this time an Argentina bishop, Monse?or Benevente, made an appeal on Easter Sunday for peace, and fol lowed it with the suggestion that the ancient quarrel should be settled for ever, and an enormous statue of the Christ, the Prince of Peace, should he erected upon the very highest point of the Andes, so that both na tions might see it and be reminded of their vow. Accordingly, a statue twenty-six feet high was designed and cast from old bronze cannon and carriod on gun carriages over the high mountains to its destinatlone hlgh mountains to its destined abode. It was unveiled on March 13, 1904, with thousands of troops and pil grims present, and it stands over looking the heights of tho world, a mighty symbol of the peace that Christianity has been BO long pro claiming and so barbarously slow in effecting for mankind.
