For many years all trace imd been lost of the ringer who obeyed the Injunction lettered on the State Houno bell. Philadelphia, by ringing It vigorously and "Proclaiming liberty throughout the lund and to the Inhabitants thereof." It wis known to a few hiatorians. In m. vtgun way. that his name wa William Hurry, and that he waa a man well advanced In yearn on that Immortal way when, serving In the humbl rapacity of bell ringer, he made his place In history.

The familiar poem, no well known to all American. "The Liberty Bellman." with its thrilling- line, "Ring-, grand-father. ring." had surrounded Hurry with a. legendary atmosphere that mad many persona regard him ma sort of myth. Antiquarians and historians had made frequent searches for the body to prove hla reality.

If not more, but theae were all In vain until recently the graveyard of the old Pine Ktreet rreabyterlnn Church, Fourth and Fine etreeta, Philadelphia, waa discovered to be the last resting place of the famoua revolutionary character. Credit for this Important dlaclofure goea to Jacob Iaiw, aexton of the church. Rome time sgn he began compiling ennu of the long dead denlsena of the ancient burying place. In the process numeroui fact of great historical Interest came to light, all connected with graves of revolutionary patrlota or of famoua men of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. It waa not an easy task.

"Around them lay a vast, untouched field of such knowledge, in the. life and culture, of the native tri'iws. Jt whs virgin soil for the scientist, and it waa perfectly natural for them to take up th.9 study with ardor. "Exiles separated from their kind, iijfv lated in remote villages, threw themselves" into this investigation with all the enthusiasm of minds starving for mental pabulum. Later, pernaps, they settledl In Siberian towns in money earning occupations and were able found mnseums.

"Their children no more think of leaving Siberia than the children of immigrants think of leaving th United States. The people have greater wealth and greater independence than in Russia. Therefore their intellectual life is mora active, and, from the nature of their environment it has taken tbe direction ot anthropology. "All over Siberia arc found rocks carved; with figures and inscriptions, a thorough, comprehension of which would undoubtedly add a great deal to our knowledge of the past. An international for the investigation of central and eastern Asia was organized three years ago for the purpose of making an exhaustive study of these rock carvings." Mr.

Sternberg spent seven years In exila in the sub-arctic islaJid of Sakhalin, much, of. the time in a little native village in. which he was tho only white man. Like other exiles, be devoted himself to the study of the language, culture, religion and folklore of these people. I pon his return to ffussl.t became one of tiie Btaff of the Academy of Science in St.

Petersburg, and from there was called to the American museum to nsist in the arrangement of certain collections, and to write a lxxik on the tribe of Sakhalin and the Amur river. Thia book will be one of those published In connection with the North Puciflc exploring expedition sent out by Morris K. Jesup to trace the connection between the tribes of the American and Asiatic jcoaste of the north Pacific. It will be Illustrated with plates of articles collected In that expedition, and will probably occupy Mr Sternberg two years in the making. obscurity.

where almost THAT Siberia should on of the richest countries in the- world In anthropological investigation and museums of anthropology may stem surprising. I-eori Sternberg, who wrrived from the Academy of Science at St. Petersburg a few weeks ago to take up employment in the department of anthropology in the American Museum of Natural Historv, spent a term of rr-lm cal c3ktl. In Liberia and tells about this phase of Siberia. "There is scarcely a town of 10.000 inhabitants," said he, "which has not a well-housed museum of anthropology under the care of a learned and competent curator; and some of these small towns "have museums whose collections attract scholars from all over the world.

"In the museum of Tashkent there is valuable material illustrating the civilization of the Oreeoo-Bactrian kingdom which followed the conquest of Alexander. The museum at Irkutsk some years ago sent out a great expedition in which a scor" of political exiles spent three years in Northeastern Siberia, and for the first time brought, in an adequate account cf the languages, culture, religion and folklore of th tribes of that reqion. Messrs. B-'goras and Jochelson. afterward placed in charge of the expedition from the American museum, were members of the Irkutsk museum expedition.

In the little towns of Nerchinsk and "befall there excellent museums, both founded by a. political rxlle. He wa sentenced to bard labor. "At the expiration of bis term he in rehlnsk and took up the trade ut photography. Although burdened with the support of a great family, be managed to collect very valuable material of the stone age and ethnological collections from the surrounding Tunga and Mongolian tribes.

"But the rtehest museum in Siberia from a scientific point of view is that of Minusinsk. Minusinsk is a small town, but the museum is housed in a fine brick building and scientists from the whole world go there to see the collections illustrating the bronze age and stones containing inscriptions in the Mongolian and old Turkish dialects. "The found', was Martyanov. a druggist of Minusinsk. He was educated in a university in Kussia, where he came under the influence of a distinguished anthropologist.

Prof. Badlov. The latter inspired him to return to- his native town and make; anthropological collections of that region, and Martyanov founded tho museum now known throughout the scientific world out of his own means and made Us chief collections himself. "All these museums are, supported and have been built up chiefly by private means, and are the object of much pride on the part of the local residents. The NEW YORK.

To the uninitiated It seem so natural for them to hunger after good nourishing msit. bread and vegetables.

Not at. all! "They often push aside their plates at first, nauseated actually bv the stunt of wholesome diet and betrging for a piece of bread and a cup of bread and tea. that la the. tenement menu, and they prefer It to any other food until at last they come to the knowledge of th other through their own bettered feeltnas.

A mother, having told about hor daughter's illness, turns her attention to the social side of life, poking her companion, a tall, toothless woman, in the ilbs. "We ain't never met till we both camerl down here," nhe says. "Wa'n't It uueer? There we'd lived right across the way, but wc never took no freedom with each other. Just nodding pleasant like, until we found ourselves side by side on the ferry. Then we Just broke the ice.

I think it's foolish for jwoj.lo to be too particular at such times." Another young woman, who looks atlll In her teens, but confesses to 21, shows two babies proudly and points out a third on the a.ind. "And your husband?" Is asked. "I'm wurryln' about him." she confesses. "He said he'd write, but I ain't heard, and If the letter dou't come, tomorrow 1 must go back." "What, children and all?" They have been at the home but three days, and two weeks will lie; none too long. "You don't know what a man la when he's left alone." the wife went on.

"My man's a good cook, there ain't none better, but I know he won't do a thing while I'm away Just eat scraps now and then." A woman at her aide says rjulckly: "My rnon stay'Jl with bis mother; he ain't no band to write, but he and he'll be took r.iie of." The husbands. It seems, are a great problem to the authorities. Miss Thorn-nun, iiKke.l about them, did not know whether to be most angry or amused. "Sunday Is visiting day, and they are allowed to come down and see the wtve and babes. To give them credit most of them are srrateful.

"When they see the change, the little crying baby laughing and the wife cheer-fid.

Niiioists by profession and Japanese by sentiment. They are clasping hands and murmuring approval of the latest slant-eyed victory in the Orient. Near them a worker In settlements Is telling her experience to a philanUiroplat.

"I have never come across anything quite) so pathetic in New York as I did In Chicago. There was one cripple! girl there who had never been out of a certain district In the slums. Just tnowd from one street to aJiuther, from one miserable tenement to another. "Slu! had never seen a bit of green except the few spears of grass in the gutters, and I determined to take her for one good look at the real country. I borrowed the carriage of a well-to-do woman, a friend of mine, who did not believe the story I told her.

simply laughed at the very idea of such a condition of things and looked en me as a victim of Imposture. I i-rsuaded her to go with us. "We drove to the tenement, had the crippled girl lifted into the carriage and started for a drive Into the outskirts of the city. After a little we came to a long avenue of trees and I turned to say something to the Invalid and found she had quietly fainted away, the sight of the. trees moving their leaves and branches having acared her Into unconsciousness, for she had actually no idea what it meant.

"Imagine a etate of affairs like that! If people only knew the desolation of these pitiful lives, they would not content to send a certain aum of money every now and then. They would come and see what is needed and bring with them a great deal of human sympathy, for we can't have too much of that." The last look at Seabreexe takes in the sandy foreground where a small girl who has swallowed cent Is surrounded by a admiring crowd, who are suggesting in the vernacular certain methods Inversion peculiar to the Last Sid in such an emergency. Japanese must have improved vastly on the original forms, as they have done with so many other tilings introduced from foreign countries.
