RAILROAD SURVEY. The party which
this end Of the proposed rail-
road extension from Milford, Utah. to
Barstow, CAL, and which returned to
Salt Lake about two weeks since, has
been re-engaged and is again in the field.
While the line as surveyed i. good, it is
thought it can be improved. The sur.
vey a. made from Milford to Sheep
Spring. southeast Of Panaca, will not be
altered. Bennett Springs pass is found
to be heavy one, and to avoid it, .
line will be run now from Dry Valley up
the fat north Of town, and on to Coyote |
Springs, by way Of the Bristol Pass.
This will bring the line within three
miles Of town. A number Of other
changes will also be made and the pres.
ent party expects to be in the field three
months.
SToPPED WoRK.--It is found that the
Yuba ore does not contain sufficient per
cent. Of lead to admit Of its being sue

vanning machines were shut down. A
good portion Of the silver in the ore is
contained in ganRue 30 light that it floats
over the tables and is lost 10 the tailings.
The vanning machines erected for the
purpose Of concentrating the ore work
we'll, and successfully concentrate the
old tailings now at the mill though the
percentage Of lead contained in them is
small. Arrangements will probably be
made by which all the old pit will be
worked over.

Delivers Strong Sermon Against
Rum.
Rev. Dennis J. Flynn Of st. Mary's r.
9. Church of this city'delivered Yesterday
afternoon before the I. A. B. Society OF
the church an eloquent snc strong tenn
perance sermon against the liquor traffic
The church was crowded to listen to the
reverend divine who held their close atten-
ton throughout. He traced the history of
the temperance movements from 1926
when the drinking was at its
greatest heighth, to the present time
lie spoke eloquently and impassionately
on the miseries resulting from rum
drinking. The want hunger and crime
OF the country he attributed in large
measure to its free use commenting at
length on the awful effects of its free
use by women. He said "Can
you, my friend, conceive greater curse
than drink Is there anything else on
earth that can so waste ard desolate a
home? Sickness poverty and death all
are tolerable endurable. bring with them
no disgrace and crime; but drunkenness
Is course without a redeeming feature.
but like tlend calmly surveys the ruin
1t has wrought. Intemperance he con
tended was not only a curse to the home
but a curse and stigma on the church
1t is curse to home, church and state,
and if this be true then the agent or
propaganda Of this triple curse, the
saloon is nothing less than triple curse
itself. The numerous saloons were To-

there poses as good fellow, but at
home his wife and family are out
OF food and proper raiment The
saloon debauches thousands Of voters
and they acquire power in politics that
is injurious to good government He
urged upon persons in the church in the
traffic to abandon it and engage in more
honorable business pursuits. Father
Flynn closed with an eloquent peroration
and 1t was evidenced by the emotion OF
the audience that his words
had made deep impress
sion upon his hearers. Father Flynn
has only been five years in the ministry,
but in that time has taken a front rank
among the clergy of this diocese, his ser.
mons at all times having upon them the
stamp of great ability. He is warmly
and enthusiastically temperance man
and has been unfaltering in his work in
that cause ever since his first sermon.
His parishioners have a warm regard and
love for him for the many kindnesses he
has rendered them. His first service was
at st. hary's, under the late Ri. Rev.
Father Kelley, at whose death he was
sent to Galena, Md. At that place he
built up the church When Bishop Curtis
was indicted in office Father Flynn was
again sent to st. Marys.

AT the next session of the General As
sembly an effort win be made blythe mil
itia OF the state to have their appropria-
ton increased. The men want more pay
and ten days encampment. The neces-
sity for proficient militia is admitted
The good work shown at the recent en-
campment at Brandywine Springs did
much to bring the militia into public
favor and the frequent times that the
home boys have created good impression
outside of the city has been source of
pride to Delawareans.
There are some people however who
object TO an increase of the appropriation
and think that the cost could be
kept within the present limits If properly
managed
A gentleman connected with the miH-
tia and who thoroughly understands the
matter, said to an EVENING JOURNAL.
reporter on Saturday There is no
reason why tho amount now spent for
the state militia should not be made to
do. The trouble is that the greater por
ton Of the appropriation does not go
to the soldiers, but TO the governors
staff.
The cost Of the encampment Of 1887
was 81, 222. Is and will warrant that the
present one cost fully as much Where
did this money 60 Take for instance
81 600 as the cost OF the Brandywine

to pay for liquors and cigars TO entertain

them do what Colonel Wood does. furnish
