Mr. Hutchinson, of Wood offered
the following resolution:

a Natural Petroleum Refinery Found.

Entering through a crevice between two
gigantic rocks, the explorers found them
selves in a circular basin 800 feet in cir

of this basin is regularly paved with
broad tagging as if done by the hand of
man From three parts of the basin arose
a thin, blush vapor. spreading through
the underground chamber close, oil-like

found TO arise from deep seams in the
rocky floor One of the party produced
long cord and, attaching it TO small
stone, attempted to gauge the depth OF
these seams. No bottom could be reached,
however. On the stone being withdrawn

shaving a chinese Baby's Head.

One of the first things that happens to a
Chinese baby boy after he is born IS 10 be
shaved. A barber comes with razor, and
all the hair is shaved off the poor little fell
lows tender scalp After that, baby has
to go to the barber for his shave, just as a
grown man with beard might go in this
country: but he never seems to enjoy 1t,
and cries pitifulIy every time the sharp
razot mows down the hair. After awhile,
when the hair begins to grow thicker, the
bead is not shaved all over, but is left I'M
touched in spots, just as the parents think
will look pretty. Sometimes there will be
three tufts, each as big round as silver
dollar, one just over the middle of the
forehead, and one over each ear. When
the hair grows long enough in these tufts,
1t is braided and tied with bright cord, and
then baby looks funny enough to for
eigner, for each little braid stands stiff1y
mn for about two inches, and then bops
over. The bra;ds look like horns on his
head. and holes are cut in his green and
red cap to let the horns come through

CURRENT COMMENT,

Thomas Lowry to Chicago News-The
thing most talked Of in our city at present
Is the industrial exposition which we are
going TO open next fall. 1t is not to be es-
tablished for only one year, but it is to be
permanent institution. just like the exposi-
ton here in Chicago, and we shall try 10
make il outrank yours i'm point of variety
OF display and general interest. We havea
big country up there to draw upon, both
for exhibits and for patronage. / have
been East for week or two, but i under
stand that the committee has accepted
plan for the building which will in many
respects eclipse those used for similar
purpose in the older cities of the country.
A good deal of attention will be paid to
making it attractive externally. 1t is in
tended that the interior arrangement shall
be everything that can be desired. A fund
OF about $500, 600 has already been raised,
and the work of construction will be COM
menced as soon as the weather will permit.
The contracts will be drawn up so as to
guarantee its completion by the end of next
August. There can be no question of the
exposition being a success, as our people
never fall TO support any enterprise which
is for the benefit of the entire community.
Our fairs have always drawn immense
crowds, and. as the exposition will have
numerous attractions which the fairs lacked,
it will no doubt be even more potential in
bringing visitors to the city.
<x#
Col. King. on North American Telegraph
Company-Our contracts with the United
lines has been revised and definitely agreed
upon. and is, in some respects, even more
favorable to the North American company
than the original draft presented to our
stockholders. Contracts forwire have been
made subject to approval of the board of
directors, and at very favorable rates Con-
tracts for poles have been let and negotia-
tons for right of way are pending. The
building of the line will be pushed as soon
as the weather and conditions will permit.
We shall select offices at once probably in
the Temple Court, and by June l we shall
have the best built, best equipped. and best
managed line of telegraph to be found in
this or any other country. Benedict and
Burnham. of Waterbury, Conn, get the
contract for the copper wire.

HOTEL GOSSIP.

The Clark house on Sunday evening had
a sensation. One of the girls of the Ju-
venile ''MikadO" company, young blonde
who is considerably under twenty years of
age, suddenly disappeared. The other
members of the company sang and talked
until nearly 10 O'clock, but still the young
lady did not appear. A search for her was
finally instituted, but without success.
Finally the manager, who stopped at the
Nicollet house. was routed out of bed but
his presence failed to produce the missing
damsel. and the hunt was given up, but
not until midnight had passed. At O'Clock
III the morning the night clerk admitted the
missing female, who explained that she had
been visiting friend, and that it was no.
body's particular business as to where she
had passed the previous evening.

AFLOURIsHING CHURCH.
why the Members of the Church of
Church Rejoice.

At the recent celebration of the ninth an
niversary of the Church of Christ at the
edigce, corner of Portland avenue and
Eleventh street, an exhibit was read of the
workings of the church during the nine
years of its history, which was very credit
able indeed to the energy and management
of its leaders and members. 1t required
considerable faith in the eight members who
met together for the first time on the 14th
of February, 1877, to discuss the problem of
organizing a Church of Christ in Mime
apolis. when it is remembered that they had
no church edifice to worship in and no
money to purchase one. The success of the
young church can be traced to the fact that
they had number of brave, true, conse-
Grated women among them who love their
Lord and would not give Him up. This
fact was clearly set forth by Miss Choate,
who represented the Ladies' Aid society, in
a terse and graphic paper in which the
brethren came out second best.
The clerk of the church, George SOublette,
in clear business like report of the history
of the church, showed that the first business
meeting, consisting OF twenty-five men,
bers took place on Feb. %, 1877, in small
church still standing on the corner of
Ninth street and Fifth avenue south. In
lied aud thirty-three persons signed the
covenant, which bound them to take the
word of God, as found in the Bible, as their
only creed and the will of Hin who is their
great teacher, as their only guide in the
conduct of life. They also agreed to
abandon and forever repudiate all party
names to designate their church, and
agreed to be called by the name of Him
alone, who is the center and life of the
whole system. Under this covenant, so
simple and vet so comprehensive, the young
organization has grown and strengthened
until 26O names have been added to the
church; SO of these have left the city,
and 10 have gone home, leaving a
membership at the present date of
165 members. The growth of church is
frequently found by the amount OF money
they eXpend upon it. In 1880 there were
fifty-three members. who expended $500.
In 1885 there were 165 members, who raised
and dsbursed nearly $4,000. showing a
very large percentage gained in members
and means during five years. This young
organization, according to the showing OF
the various committees, has hourishing
Sunday school. very effective Ladies' Aid
society. mission band of fifty children and
Dther organizations. such as Bible class and
literary society, all in active operation. The
church also gives literally 20 home and for
eign missions. 1t is fortunate in having
some thoughtful business men watching
over its interests, the result of which has
put the church into possession of
some very fine lots in the corner of Portland
avenue and Eleventh street south. worth in
the market to-day 81. 500, with but COM
paratively small amount of debt upon it. A
handsome church structure is to be erected
at an early day. With such surroundings,
and with people so consecrated to the
work, a bright future for this church is
aupured
