REPORT DISCOVERY OF
REMAINS OF BUDDHA
Pagoda Found in India Said to Con
tain Priest's Ashes.
LONDON, September 11. Dr.
Spooncr of the Indian Archaeologi
cal Department, has unearthed In
the neighborhood of Peshawar n find
which hns crented Immense Interest'
In India namely, me remains oi a
great Uiiddhlst pagodn, Including it
casket believed to contain tait ot the
ashes of tho Huddha,
lliucn Tsang, tho famous Chinese
traveler of the seventh century A.
I), described a wonderful pagoda and
monastery which stood in the capital
city of Kntshka, the early Huddhtst
Kniporor, nnd enshrined the sucred
remains nf the Huddha. Half u mile
from I'cshnwar, nnd thirty feet be
low tlio present surface, Dr. Spoon
cr has found tho vestiges of the great
building, lost to human sight for
over 1000 years. ,
In the smaller of two mounds Dr.
Spooncr found the rcmnlns nf u pa
goda, soma 285 feet across. Its most
Interesting 'portion was n stono bur
ial chamber, tho roof of which had
fallen In, damaging u heavy green
moldered bronze casket containing
the treasure. Tho casket, seven In
ches high by flvo ucross. Is decorat
ed with figures of u seated, Iluddhn
nnd worshippers, a standing Prlnco
und others, tho sacred lotus design,
and Inscriptions in the .Khnroshthi
scilpt. Tho lettering Is so corroded
that the finders ns )et have made
out little beyond the name of tho
Kniporor Knnlshkn nnd thn Greek
crafstmnn AgesllucW. head engineer
of the pagoda,
The bottom of tho bronze case was
looie, revealing tho presence nsldo
of n smaller casket of rock cystul,
which was extracted wlth(tlio utmobt
tare. It pioved to bo hexagonal In
form, live Inches by three, and to
(dntuln three small pieces of charr
ed bono tho relic In honor of which
the. vault and the great pagoda It
solf wero evidently built 2000 years
ago.
Uiiddhlst tradition asserts that tho
remains of the founder were distri
buted among vuilous pultons and
shrines; nnd tho Iliitlsh (lovoinnient
has hitherto recognized tho claims ot
lluddhlsts tn their own icllcs. About
a dozen years ago, when u pin Hon
of what wns supposed to bo tho
lluddhu's ashes was found in n stupa
on tho Nepal frontier, the relic wns
divided among the, monasteries of
llurmu, Stum, Ceylim und Japan.

HAS EATEN NO MEAT
FOR EIGHTY YEARS.
The Rev. Henry S. Clubb, Grand old
Man of Vegetarianism, Hale
and Hearty at 83,
CLEVELAND, O,, Sept. 4, The
Ilcv. Henry S. Clubb, eighty-three
years old, president of tho Vegetarian
Society ot Ameilcn, resident of Phi
ladelphia, and temporary sojorncr In
Clovoland, Is little, hearty and hap
py, having subsisted nearly eighty
years on potatoes, cabbage, corn nnd
(injons. Nevor n tasto of meat, nev
er a pk chop, never a leg of turkey,-
not even n clam or n crab or n
lobster.
Tho Ilcv. Mr. Clubbs Is In tho min
istry becnuso ho cnu'Miclp It.
"I wouldn't feel nt homo In any
other calling," ho said, '
Religion Is this octogenarian's nn
tural element, as water Is a duck's
or nlr.ls n hlid's.
"I was the smallest wirt of a bov
when I nceotiled tho Dlblo ns my
guide," said Mr. Clubb. "I studied
Hie woid f I m n practical viewpoint.
How did thu-llllilc Intend that I
should live. Ono of the ery first
things 1 learned was that God novnr
Intended I should eat meat. 1 was
Just n small boy, but I mndo ftp my
mind to accept God's ndvlce, Fium
that day to this no morsel ot beet
or vcnl or any other lleuh hns passed
my lips."
Certainly no one who looks at the
fresh, pink, healthy face ot the ltuv.'
Mr. Clubb would question the elll
cacy of vegetarianism nt least as
applied to tho preacher.
,llut Mr. Clubb was not content to
merely piactlco vegetarianism. Ho
wanted to pi each it us well, So awny
back In the 70s ho militated with the
lllblo Climch. That denomination Is
unique, but not numerous. In Ame
ilcn there Ib but ono congregation
of tho denomination. This ono pnr
lbh to bo found In Philadelphia, und
(ho Hev. Mr. Clubb Is Its pastor.
Though elghty-tlueo years old, ho
prcachoH regularly every Bunday
Sunday morning nnd evening, exhort
Igu tho flock to stand Ilrm by tho
vcgeterlnn,
"The lllblo Christian Chinch,"
says Mr. Clubb, "Is orthodox. Hut
Just as thn ll.iptlst Church lays Its
special bliess upon Immorslun, so tho
lllblo Christian Church Is emphatic
in the matter ot vegetarianism. It
Is our doctrine, our dogma and our
creed not to cat meat.
"Tho church was found on tho
woid of God. Wo first accepted God's
word purely ns a matter of faith.
And now come all tho physicians
and the physeolngtsts and confirm
our belief. That meat is not food
Is now a scientific fact." x
