Copeland Would Tax All Pistols $100
The tradition that congress Is
made up of lawyers has "gone bust"
these days, Inasmuch as the Sixty
eighth has a pleasing variety, Including
a dentist, a champion rifle shot, a poet,
a music publisher, a dirt farmer and
the father of "two sets of twins." The
new senator from New Tork, Royal
S. Copeland (portrait herewith), In
private life Is a physician. Represent
ing Gotham, he is naturally exercised
over Its professional gunmen and
jumps Into the limelight with a bill
to put a tax of $100 on every pistol
manufactured In the United States
and make $1 the price of a pistol
cartridge.
Enlisting radio as his ally Senator
Copeland replied to the members of
the American Silk association who,
the week before, had hissed and booed
a pro-bonus speech by the senator.

the reception given his speech. "It was a most Interesting example of mere
hysteria. I never more enjoyed a clinic In nervous diseases.. It Is amaslng
that men conspicuous for good works should permit themselves to Indulge in
anger to the verge of apoplexy. Children who act one-tenth as bad are pun

"He1 la a rare combination or intel

university under his management ; and
he la a Democrat both in sentiment

gressive and sound on economic ques

becomes known." y
Of course Dr. Murphree Is with
Mr. Bryan and against "that monkey
business." "I absolutely refuse to De
lleve that I sprang from a monkey,"
he declared bluntly, "and evolution Is
far too dangerous a subject to teach
young college students while tneir , , -

INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOP
IC Lessons From the Life of Joshua.
YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOP
IC Joshua and the Conquest of Canaan.
The book of Joshua, from which our
lesson Is taken. Is a history of the con
quest of the Promised -I.Hnd and Its
apportionment among the tribes of Is
rael. It takes Its name from Its princi
pal character, Joshua. During the wil
derness Journey he was Moses' minis
ter and captain of his army. When
Moses was denied the privilege of
going over the Jordan, Joshua was ap
pointed to the leadership of Israel.
Moses, the representative of the law,
brought Israel to the, borders of
Canaan. Joshua was the man chosen
to lead the people Into the place of
rest. The name, "Joshua", has tha
same derivation as the name "Jesus".
I. Joshua's CalMJosh. 1 :1, 2).
Moses was dead, but God's work
must go on. The work was continued
by calling Joshua to take It np. Joshua,
no doubt, was sorrowful over the loss
of his master, but there was now no
time for mourning. ,
II. God Renews His Promise of the
Land to Israel (Josh. 1:3, 4).
This promise had been given to
Abraham and renewed to Isaac, Jacob
and Moses. It is now renewed to Is
rael when they are about to enter
upon Its possession. The borders of
the land were "from the wildernese
and this Lebanon even unto the great
river, the river Euphrates, all the land
of the HltMtea and unto the great sea
toward the going down of the sun" (v.
The nearest It was ever possessed'
was during the reigns of David and
Solomon, though not then fully
realized. This tend still belongs to
the Jews and In God'a own time they
shall' possess It Their possession of
this land was due- entirely to them
selves. God promised them that wher
ever their feet seC wpon the land. It
was theirs. If they- failed to secure
possession it was Bemuse they failed
to-claim It,
nil God'a Presence Promised. U
Joshua (Josh. 1:5).
Joshua was entering apon a perilous
and' difficult enterprise;, but the Lord
suld,. as He was with Moses so He
would' be with him. The- difficulties be
fore him were:
1. 'She Jordan River (v. 2). This
river was now at Its flood (Josh. 3:
15), making It Impossible' for armies to
cross. .
2. The People Were Living in Walled
Cities (Num. 13:38). Notwithstanding
this, GM Is ready to Insure success.
(1) "I will not fall thee, nor forsake
thee" frV. 5). (2) "There shall not
any man be able to stand before thee"
(v. 5). (3) "As I was with Moses, so
will I be with thee." Josnva had been
with Moses throughout their forty
years' experience, from the Egyptian
deliverance to the time of hla death.
Because he believed that God was with
his master, he was willing-and ready
to cross Jordan at Its flood and cour
ageously meet the enemies on tha
other sloe. '
IV. Conditions of Blessings In tha
Land (Jbsh. 1:6-9).
, 1. "Be'Strong and of Good Courage"
(v. 6). Hla mission was So go In and
divide the land among the tribes for
an Inheritance. It required strength
and courage to do this.
2. Unwavering Obedience to ths
Word ef God (v. 7). In a land of
Idolatry It required much courage to
be true to God. Prosperity and success
are conditioned . upon unswerving
obedience to God's commands. In all
hla work he must conform hla life to
the law of God. To- pass from tha
pathi outlined therein would bring dis
aster! and tuin. In, orderr to accomplish
thlsv the law of the Lord must be In
hla mouth continually: He waa to
meditate therein day anal night Joshua
rendered prompt obedience. He did not
stop to cavil, but at once gave orders
for the march. God: made the plan
ami gave the directions.
V. Joshua's Retrospect (Josh. 8 :l-3)
As his life was new drawing to a.
close, be summoned the people hnd
pulers to give some farewell counsel.
1. Rehearses God's Goodness (v. Tfi
Cod had given rest unto Israel fsom
all their enemies;
2. All That Had Happened Waa
Done by the Urd. God had fought
tor them. No. one had been eble. to
Stand against them; therefore He
urges upon them fidelity.

Pyramid of Cheopt Is
Still in Good Condition
Save for one surviving pyramid, the
seven wonders of the ancient world
have passed on. Not only have they
disappeared, but their memory Is most
ly confined to the pages of old books.
Strangely enough, the one surviving
wonder Is the oldest. It dates back
almost 4,000 years before Christ and
It Is stm In good condition.' It Is the
pyramid of Cheops at Ghlzeh, In
Egypt. The most notable thing about
the pyramid was the care taken to
protect It from grave robber , All the
entrances were sealed. There 'were
several large chambers near the base
of the structure built to mislead any
one seeking the sepulchral chamber.
This was 138 feet above the ground,
and could be reached only by tortu
ous passages, cleverly concealed.
The waffs of Babylon were the sec
ond wonder. The third wonder was
the statue of Zone In the temple at
EphesuB. The fifth was the mausoleum
of HalTcarnassus; h Carta. The sixth
was the Colossus ef Rhodes, and the
seventh was the rfgnthotrse of Alexan
dria at Pharos." If was Antlnater of
Phfestlhe. the Baefferker of the an

wonders about 200' years before the
