The worldly members Of the COM
muuity are not aware that a series Of
religious meetings are being held
every afternoon and evening in the
Baptist church, under the direction
of Rev. A. p. Graves, a christian
gentleman and a very successful
worker as an evangelist. This able
follower Of the cross is an earnest
labOrer in the vineyard, and so great
is his reputation that his appearance
on the coast has been followed by
scores Of invitations to visit various
places and hold religious meetings.
Both the afternoon and evening
services in this city have been large
ly attended and a growing interest
is manifested among church people.
Next Sunday afternoon a meeting
will be held in the opera house under
the auspices OF the Young Mems
christian association, to be 5upersn-
tended by Rev. Mr.. Graves, and at
night, in the same building there
will be a union service Of all the
churches. 1t is to be hoped that the
reverend gentleman's visit to our
city will be followed by an awaken
ing Of religious fervor in which the
already good will be made better,
and many heretofore unconverted
may be taken into the folds Of the
church.

L. C. Reed, one Of the proprietors
Of the N P. livery stables, made a
very unfortunate shot Tuesday
shortly after noon. Mr.. Reed has
been in the habit, when he wanted a
chicken, OF going into the barn or
barn yard and shooting 1t. He used
one Of the small calibre Smith 4
Wesson pistols to do his killing.
Yesterday he went into the stable
for the purpose Of killing fowl and
took a shot at a hen. The bullet
passed through the north side Of the
barn, struck the gravel about six
feet beyond, and glancing, the lead
messenger hit seven-year-old
daughter OF Chas. Wilson on the
back of the hand who was passing
along Riyerside avenue at the mo-
ment one hundred and fifty feet
away. The child cried out and at
tracted the attention Of a gentleman
near by, who took her to DR.. Nor
gan's office. The bullet was pretty
well spent when 1t struck the child
and only broke the flesh, but the
hand puffed up to twice Its natural
size. While the injury is but slight
yet the escape was narrow one.
Mr.. Reed was not only surprised but
deeply grieved when he learned Of
the result Of the shot, and at once
reported to Marshal Hyde and paid
a fine for shooting in the city limits.
He also made all the reparation to
the family In his power. He is very
much grieved over the accident, as
1t was purely accidental and a cir
cumstance that might not occur
again in a million shots. However,
1t is a warning against people shoot
ing in the city limits, a practice en-
tirely too common, and one for
which there should be a heavy PEN
atty.

Rev A. p Grava-. the HE.lta.,
arrived in this city from the eust on
Tuesday, and that evening began a
series Of gospel meetings at the Bap-
tist church. The meeting was well
attended the first evening and full
of interest throughout. Mr. Graves
conducted 1t and preached from John
1851. His sermon was a plain and
earnest presentation Of the Christian
condition when he abides in Christ
and Christ's words abide In him,
and of the assurance the christian
may have in prayer. The discourse
was listened to with much interest,
and many no doubt went away much
impressed by the pungent truths
they heard. The speaker is in earn
est and seeks 10 reach his audience
by a straightforward use Of Gods
word. There will be meetings each
evening this week, also afternoon
meetings The time for the even
ing meeting has been fixed at seven
o'clock and that for the afternoon
at half past two. Until further no
tice all meetings will be held In the
Baptist church. Everybody is in
vited to come. The christian work
ers and christians OF every denoml-
nation are urged to avail themselves
Of this opportunity to help forward
the cause Of religion in our cOmmu-
nifty. Mr.. Graves will speak at all
the services.

Thursday the telephone company
put an instrument in at the office Of
the water company in Echo roller
mills. The public is notified that
this telephone is connected with the
one in Matt Downing's saloon. That
place is open day and night, and
when a FIRE breaks out the person
first discovering it is requested to
leave word at Downing's so that the
alarm can be Immediately given to
the watchman so that the fire pres
sure can be applied. This arrange
ment is a good one, as 1t insures the
necessary pressure in case Of a fire,
which will be a great saving Of time
in conveying word to the engineer
in the absence Of any system Of gen.
eral alarm.

At a meeting OF the city council
Wednesday the members proved
themselves alive to a thorough or
ganization Of the fire department
The experience the people have had
during the past six months has
taught the necessity Of a combined
effort for self-protection, and now
that the chief appliance, water, is
supplied in abundance, the council
proposes that it shall lose none Of its
effectiveness for want Of means to
put 1t to use. Fire matters were dis
cussed to a great length, and in the
end Marshal Hyde was appointed
temporary fire marshal, and the COM
mittee on FIRE and water was in
structed to communicate with the
manufacturers and ascertain the cost
Of a truck. This will be valuable
addition to the department, as at the
fire the other morning the want of
ladders and apparatus to tear down
impediments was severely felt.
With the hose carts and a fully
equipped truck the Spokane Falls
department will surpass any in the
territory.

Matt. Downing returned Tuesday
from his mining claims on the
Pend d'Oreille river, bringing a
large quantity Of rock with him in
the shape OF quartz, horn silver, car
Donates. ETC., and a fine specimen Of
coal The rock is by far the best
looking that has been shown in the
city, and 1t only remains for the test
OF the assayer to decide as to its true
value. II 1t proves to be rich, Mr..
Downing has property that will
make him a millionaire. The Pend
d'Oreille district has been attracting
considerable attention all summer
and some Of the returns have been
very encouraging. There is a tre-
mendous body Of ore in the country,
and when the mines are once opened,
which will not be until next sum
mer, the district will prove lively
and rich one. The claim from which
the specimens we refer to were TAX
en- Is situated on the west bank Of
the Pend d'Oreille river, at the falls,
about I25 miles from this city. II
the mines prove anything like what
they promise, there will be road
undoubtedly laid out between Col
Vile and the falls, which will throw
the camp in direct and easy commu-
nicatlon with this city. Much OF the
travel into the country now goes by
the way Of Sand Point, which is
hardly over Ave miles nearer than a
route that could be laid out from Spo-
kane Falls, via Colville. Mr.. Down
ing now has two men steadily at
work on his claims The ore he has
on exhibition, and which is well
worth seeing, was taken. out only
about two feet below the surface. If
the rule works in this instance the
quartz will become richer the deep
er the workmen go. The indications
now are that next summer will wit
ness great activity In mining TO the
north of this city, in which the Pend
dOreille country is bound to cut a
prominent figure. The country is al
most unknown and the indications
are that mineral exists everywhere.
The coal that Mr.. Downing brought
down is a fair specimen. The vein
Is about eighteen inches thick and is
located around the point Of the
mountain where his mine is sltuat-
cd. With a means Of transporter
tion, a coal mine would prove to be
as great bonnnza as a gold mine.
So far, this new diggings has made
a splendid showing, and 1t only re-
mains for further developments t0
decide as to the future destiny Of
the district We sincerely hope that
Investigation will prove the rock to
be immensely rich, as 1t would make
Of the northwest the greatest mining
country in the world.

Says the Vancouver Independent
"Mr. A. Downing, typographical as
sistant, returned last week from the
Okinakane country, where the Mo-
ses Indians live. Moses and Tenas-
ket, with their bands, are located
within 100 miles of Fort Spokane,
and have commenced farming. Sus-
apkin's band will Join them next
season probably. The site for the
new Touring mill, to be put up by
the government, was selected on
Prairie creek, in the OkInakane val
ley. Mr.. Downing says every Indi-
an on the Colville reservation now
knows that 100 cents make one dol
lar, and none Of them can be fooled
on the price Of oats. Civilization has
struck. them"

Our former tOwnsman, NJ. H. Kel-
liner, who Is now trying the indie
pendence Of ranchlng, met with an
accident on Monday afternoon that
came near costing him his life. He
lives south Of this place and started
to drive home, In company with his
son, leaving here about half past 8
o'clock. When reaching the top Of
the hill, the boy noticed that the end
board of the wagon box was coming
out, and the team was stopped while
the boy walked to the rear Of the
wagon TO fasten the refractory
board. Mr.. Kelliher had his head
turned, watching the operation,
when the horses took fright at some
thing on the road and dashed out in
to the timber. One wheel Of the We
hicle struck a stump and both father
and son were hurled high in the air.
Mr.. X. fell square on his face in a
rock pile, sustaining fearful bruises
on the forehead, lips, nose, and about
the eyes, and the back Of his right
hand was terribly cut The boy es-
capped with the slight sprain Of an
ankle. The horses ran into a fallen
tree and stopped without damaging
themselves or the wagon. MI. Kel-
liner Immediately returned to town
and DR.. Morgan dressed the multi
pllcatlon Of injuries. Kelliher now
travels about deeply yelled in a
shawl, and his countenance looks as
though he had passed through a
prolonged and severe prize fght.
II he does not catch cold, he will be
over the hurts in a week or 80.

SCATTER THE GERMS OF THE

Scatter the germs of the beautiful,
nv the wayside let them fall.
That the rose may spring by the cottage-gate
And the vine on the garden wall;
Cover the rough and the rude OF earth
With a vail of leaves and flowers,
And mark with the opening bud ana cup
rho march of summer hours.
Scatter the germs of the beautiful
In the holy shrine Of home;.
Let the pure and the fair and graceful mere
In thu ~loyeliest lustcr come:
Leave not n trace Of defOrnity
In the temple of the heart.
But gather about its hearth the gems
OF nature and OF art.
Scatter the germs of the beautiful
In the temple of our God
The God who starred the upllfted SKY,
And Powered the trampled sod.
When He built a temple for Himself,
Ard q home for His priestly race,
He reared each arm in symmetry,
And covered each line i'll grace.
Scatter the germs of the beautiful
In the depths of the human soul;
They shall bud and blossom and bear the 1rnlt
While the endless ages roll.
Plant with the owe Of charity
The portals of the tomb.
And the fair and the pure about thy path
In paradise shall bloom.
