A 8hr!n Sacred to Three Conflicting Religious See). Throughout Asia "holy places" are almost iih numerous ns leaves on a tree, but In Ceylon Is a mountain which enjoys the unique distinction of being u, very holy place to the devotees of three absolutely distinct and conflict ing religious sects. This Is Adam's Peak, or Sumnunln. According to the Mobnmuiednn be lief, Adam, after the fall, was taken by an nngel to the top of Samnnnla, and a panorama of all the Ills that through sin should a 111 let mankind wns spread out before him. Ill foot left nu impression on the solid rock, and his tears formed the lake from which pilgrims still drink. The Buddhists contend that It wns not Adam, but Buddha himself that made the foot print In the rock, that being the Inst spot where be touched the earth be fore ascending to heaven, while- the Brahmins have still another legend. All. however. Brahmins, Mohamme dans nnd Chinese, agree that Snmnnqln Is n very holy plnce. and to perform n pllgrlmngo to the spot Is to the Budd hist what n visit to Mecca Is to n Mo hammedan. In mixed crowds the wor shipers come, each pitying tho Igno rance of the other who is so fur from the "true way." It requires no little faith nnd some Imagination to trace In the depression In the rock the likeness of n human footprint. It Is 5V4 feet long by 2& feet wide, on the top of a huge bowl der. The natives, however, Insist that It Is the footprint of Adam. Etnmett Campbell Hall lu Cluciuuatl Commer cial Tribune. MINIATURE GARDENS. Tiny Lakes, Trees nnd Houses In Di minutive Japanese Parks.
