To the memory of the confederate
soldiers buried in Camp Chase con
federate cemetery, near Columbus,
0., a monument has just been un
veiled which was created through
the efforts of a man. who fought
against them on the union side.
This man is Col. William II. Knauss,
of Columbus, and he waa assisted
financially in the work by William
P. Harrison, of the same city.
The monument consists of a solid
granite arch, Standing 13 feet high,
built over the huge boulder which

of a confederate solder in full uni

upon which Old Glory floats.
tol. Knauss, through his efforts of
other years has become well known
among; the confederate camps in the
Routh, and this year, for the unveil
Ing of the monument, he invited them
to send flowers. Boxes of blossoms
nd plants were received from near
ly every state in the south, and there
were many contributions from both
northerners and southerners who
live in the north.
The cemetery plot contains
about two and one-half acres. The
land was held by the United States
government during the war under a
lease. April 23, 1879, it was bought
by the United States government
and described as "The Confederate
Cemetery formerly occupied by the
Lamp thase Itebel rrison."
In the inclosure were buried 2,260
confederate soldiers. From Virginia

THE LESSON TEXT.
(Joshua 8:8-17).
8. And Joahua raid unto the children of
Israel: Come hither, ir.b hear the words
f the Lord your God.
10. And Joahua aald: Hereby ya shall
know that the llv.r.s God Is among- you.
nd that he will without fall drive out
from .before you the Canaanltea, ard the
Hltttea and the Hlvltes, and the Perlaaites,
and the Glrgut,hltes, and the Amoritta, and
the Jebuaitea.
1L Behold, the ark ot the covenant of
the Lord of all the earth paasvth over be
fore you Into Jordan.
It Now therefor take you 13 men out of
the tribes of Israel, out of every trio a
man.
IX And It shall com to pasi. a soon aa

bear the ark of the Lord, the Lord of all
the earth, chall rest In the waters of Jor

cut off from the waters that com down
from above; and they ihall stand upon an
heap.
14. And It came to past, when the people
removed from their tenia to para over
Jordan, and the priests bearing the ark of
the covenant before the people;
16. And aa they that bare the ark were

priests that bar the ark were dipped In
the brim of the water (for Jordan over
flowed all Its banka all the time of harvest).
W. That the water which came down
from above Mood and to.-e up upon an
heap very far from the city Adam, that

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
The Preparation. The host had been
enenmped on tlie upper terraces of the
Jordan valley. Karly on the morning
of the 7th of Msan they broke camp
and descended to the water s edpe.
It was on this day that Joshua made
arrangeaients for the food supply
(1:10, 11). Here, as if watching their
chance to cross, they remained for
three days. But for their faith that
somehow God would find a wny, this
would have been very hopeless busi
ness. Joshua used the days of wait'
ing to perfect the arrangement for
the crossing, and directed that the peo
ple sanctify themselves (see Ex. 19: 10).
The Crossing. The Jordan valley
may be described as a great trench
"100 miles long, and from two to 15
broad, which falls from the sen level
to a low as 1,292 feet below it." G. A
Smith. The river itself is a small, tur
bulent shallow stream, about 90 feet
in width about the width of many of
our city streets. At certain reasons,
however, it overflows its regular bed,
and spreads out overthebottom lands,
becoming quite a formidable stream
The river was high at the time of our
lesson, and the fords, usually covered
by only three feet of water, must have
been ImpasFable. The two spies prob-
nbly crossed by swimming. "Hereby
ye shall know that the living God is
among yon:" In the few encouraging
words which Joshua spoke to the peo
ple before the.start, he centered their
attention on God, who was a living,
helping present person. In Him was
their strength. "The Lord of all the
earth:" An idea of God vastly supe
rior to that of the surrounding na
tions. "A significant title of the Most
High at a time when the conquest of
the land was contemplated." G. F.
Mnclear. "When they that bare the
ark were come unto the Jordan:" The
priests, whose duty it was to carry It.
They were over half a mile in advance
of the people. Hemember that Israel
was a great company, nnd was spread
out for a long distance up nnd down
the river. The movement of the'nrk
could not have been seen if the people
had swarmed in all around it. From
this time on, the ark, nnd not the pil
lar of cloud, was to be the symbol of
God's guiding presence. "Hose up in
one heap, a great way off, nt Adam:"
This damming up of the river took
place over 15 miles above the point of
crossing, probably near Tell Damieh,
where the mountains crowd the river.
nnd where a landslide or "lam" of
floating trees could easily accomplish j
the result described. At the crossing
of the Hed sea God used "a strong
east wind" to accomplish His purpose.
Here it was probably some unusual ob
struction near Tell Damieh. As a mat
ter of fact, exactly this thing happened
in the year 1207 A. D. at this very place.
"What occurred 650 years ago, by
what we call natural causes, may well
have occurred 3,000years before, timed
by Divine interposition." Canon Tris
tram in Sunday-School Times. "The
people passed over:" Probnbly below
the place where the priests stood in
the river hed, that they might feel
that God stood between them nnd the
returning waters. The crossing was
urrled, nnd effected at many differ
ent points.
The Memorials. This memorial was
constant reminder of what God had
one for them as a nation. Think, In
this connection, of the value to us of
ous various memorials soldiers' mon
uments, national holidays, Christmas.
the Lord's Supper, etc.
TRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.
Those who desire God's help should
sanctify themselves, so that He can
give it to them.
Then the ark of God went before the
people, leading them in safety; now
we follow the cross.
If the cross leads into deep waters.
we may be sure that a path will be
made through them.
When God says: "Arise, go over this
Jordan," faith will not shrink, and God'
will make a way. '
when God opens a path, then is th
time to go over. Soon the Jordan may
roll on 88 before.

is to be doubted if
we fullv realize our
atupendoua accomplishments even in
the field of agricultural machinery, as
to which our conviction is most certain
that we lead the world so far that
there Is no second. Within a lifetime

In the treasury reports the total alue
of agricultural machinery imported to
this country. From the organization
of the patent office to January 1, 11102,
there have been issued 42,074 patents
for agricultural machinery. The vuiuc
of this machinery manufactured und
sold in l'JDO was JS5.10S.279. Previous
to 1S50 there was little more thau a
hand trade iu such implements in no
sense a fuctory industry as it is now
reckoned. There were iu that year
1,333 establishments thut made ugri
culturul machinery, representing a
capital of $3,S64,2S2. In l'JOO there were
hardly more than half as many estab
lishments 717 but they represented
a capital of $157,707,951. A special cen
sus report contrasting conditions iu
1830 with those in 1S9C shows striking
ly the time and labor saved by the agri
cultural machinery iu use on our
farms. In 1830 it required three hours
ami three minutes of hu.iiau labor to
produce a bushel of wheat. In 1 . it
required but ten minutes. The cost f
this human labor fell in these 6tln,.,
from 17 cents to 3 1-3 cents. Ti'.mi -the
