LEADvILLE, Col, Oct. 27.-About two weeks
ago party OF well-known Leadvllle gentlemen
started on a hunting trip down the Grand Cam

last Thursday evening, when one of the most
distressing things that possibly could have han
pened occurred. Late In the afternoon while
the party was camped on the Sweetwater near
the Grand, W. j. Dougan, chief engineer al the
la Plata smelling works, shot an elk, but did
not bring him 10 the ground. He noticed the
animal was fatally wounded, however and NJ

Religious Indiaieremce az Yale.

SENSATION CAUSED BY AN ARTICLE IN a
STUDENTS PAPER.
A sensation was created at Yale college by the
appearance in the Yale CoUrant Of an editorial
which says among other things: "That interest
in the Sunday service at Yale has been reduced
to a minimum is evident TO the most ordinary
observer and could hardly have escaped the
attention OF the faculty. Moreover that little
benefit is derived from the service by tn e stu
dents at large is generally acknowledged. TAX
ing into consideration that attendance Is COM
pulsory, and with all due respect 10 the faculty,
we think we but echo the common consent OF
the college In saying the Gospel, as preached 10
us, Is not what il should Toe. When we con-
slider that four years OF college Lille will deter
mine our religious conviction in great part we
think the subject should be presented 10 US In
the hest manner possible, and not in such a
way as TO drive us 10 scepticism from sheer in
difference. II We fed the dry husks OF
religious conventionalism, We can hardly be ex-
pected TO develop practical and robust Christi
anity on such q diet. What We want is a prac-
tical Christianity to help US in our daily lie
and not q general shaking up OF dead issues"
There are rumors that the writer and editors
are TO be suspended.

THE SEIZED AMERICAN SCHOoNERs.-The
Hon. Mackenzie Bowel, minister of customs,
who is at HALIFAX, n. s., has informed Consul
General Phelan, that the charge against the
American fishing schooner Pearl Nelson is not
sufficient to justify the imposition Of tine, and
that the $500 deposited under protest will be
returned. The Pearl Nelson was seized at Ar-
chat in September. There are number of
similar cases yet to be disposed OF, and Mr..
Pheian expects that all the fine money paid
over will be refunded. The charge OF SNUG
Cling against the American schooner Mora
Castle has been referred tor investigation. The
United States consul is confident that he can
secure the vessels release.
