Looked 1 1 on Dove's Visit i I | At Least an Interesting Coincidence g 1 That Bird's Appearance Was Just ? Before the 8eries of Battles ' That Smashed Huns. | | How traditions and legends grow op g | around cathedrals Is told In a story by 1 I T\- TK J I TT n.ll .nikM A# V. | i/r, mjwniu ub|aumu am, buuiui vi ^ | the first guide book of the Cathedral of | | St. John the Divine, which made Its | I appearance on Sunday last, said the | | New York Evening Sun recently. The ? B book Is published by the Laymen's club % . of the cathedral. The story Is about ? the chapel of St. Boniface In the ca- g j thedral, sometimes called the German ? chapel, and runs as follows: i "In the spring of 1918. some weeks f t after the great German drive of March | j 21 had begun and before the begin- s j nlng of the counter-offensive of the g j second battle of the Marne In Jnly, the 8 large stained-glass window In the clere- | \ story of the choir above the entrance i ! to the chapel of SL Bohlface arrived j \ from England. All the ventilation j openings in the cathedral windows are j j : screened to exclude birds, which, bow- j : ever Interesting in their natural hab- ? i itats. are a practical nuisance In the | caineurni. ,, "When the stained-glass window | was ready to be pat fcito place the | temporary window filling the space | above the entrance to the chapel was ? removed for Its Installation. While the | window was thus open, and at a period s in the war when the Issue frerubied In the balance and the world fairly \ held Its breath In fearful expectation of the event, a white dove?very gen- | erally recognized as a symbol or har- | blnger of peace?flew Into the cathe- | dral over this chapel. "On the following Sunday It soared fe around In the great dome of the cross- | lng and In the choir, alighting In the | most Interesting places. When Dean g Roberts ascended the stairs of the | great marble pulpit he found the dove 1 perched on the edge of the pulpit dl- S rectiy before him. The dove then flew | around and alighted on the back of a 5 1 vacant chair between two occupied g chairs In the midst of the congrega- S I H?n An fVia (Ailth ?M A of the CTOSS* X j lng, and there remained quietly daring i | the sermon. "When the nehera started toward the ? l altar with the offertory the bird soared ? i across the congregation and alighted 8 on the hat of a woman dressed In | mourning, who was sitting near the | middle aisle, Its snow-white plumage 8 contrasting strikingly with the somber 3 attire of the bereaved woman, who ? seemed not to be disturbed by what K perhaps She regarded as a happy omen. ~ In a moment the dove flew to another p part of the crossing. It remained In U the cathedral a few days longer; and p then one day went out through an open ii door. "Soon after this occurrence the allies facing the Marne salient. Including the J Americans at Chateau Thierry, begad 1 I the greet counter movement, which ^ | finally brought peace. It was at least j I an Interesting coincidence that this 3 | white dove came into the cathedral 1 j over the chapel at the very crisis of ^ | the war, and that almost Immediately jjf | thereafter begaD that series of deter- 3 j mined events which led the Germans j I to make overtures for peace." ^ \ Sotence In Zululand. j On May 29, 1919, at Metet, Kameru* W | district, West Africa, there was wit- Hi | nessed a total eclipse of the sun. It ^ | was In the afternoon. All the "boys" h| | ran to their houses, locked the doors m and went to bed. Some were sure they *ji would die out of doors. An observer j for the Carnegie Institute came to take Sj | notes on the sun's location, and the | 3 ; Inclination of Its rays. The natives j called him "the man who put the sun j out." and were puzzled to know why Jjf j he took the trouble to come to put It Jv out In Eamerun. 3 J When he commenced to use bis Instruments they wanted to know If he S was looking at God's town up in the sun. What did God's town look like, 3 i what did God look like, whom did he ^ j see, what good did It do to look, any| way, could he see the road to heaven, ' j was It hot In heaven because It was 3 j hot on the sun? ri I - .-T-^ 8 Morion OfjOriyo rmisnw. The sponge fisheries at Tarpon 3 Springs, Fla., do more than a million 5 dollars' worth of business annual!y. y The lndustrj was built up by a Phlla- *jL delphla banker, who went to Florida v on a real estate development proposl- 3 tlon and quickly saw the possibilities 4 of making Tarpon Springs, centrally ^ located on the Gulf of Mexico and V with railroad connections, the hsad- H quarters of the Industry.
