There is a secret in building towns.
DO you know what it is? If you do
not, you can work out the problem in
the following manner: Take two
town sites; let one be a beautiful 10
cation, with all natural advantages
possible, and the other none of these.
Take five hundred old fogies and mi
sers; men who do not believe in Civ
ing capitalists anything for risking
their money in their town and put
them on the good site Take two
hundred good, live, energetic, .get-up-
and-get sort of fellows who never let
an opportunity pass to advertise them
selves and their town, and set them
on the poor town site. Then watch
these two towns for the next five
years, and you will readily catch on
to the secret of town building.-SaH

Each greatest religion of the past,
as it arose, rose out Of a religion be
fore it, grew up out of an earlier
faith whatever was vital, TRANSPORTED
it into a new and higher form, and
thus the old lived on in the new.
Thus Buddhism rose out of Brahmin-
ism, thus Christianity rose out of
Judaism, thus whatever form Of re-
igion is coming in upon US must rise
out Of Christianity, and be a spirit
ualized Christianity-if the law of
evolution still holds, and the ezper-
fence Of the past prophesies our fu-

of religion do not change from land

is needful for the growing man, is to
reconcelve those ancient problems and
restate them in terms Of the new

A most remarkable faith-cure case
has been made public at Anderson,
Ind. Mrs. Noah Ham, residing there,
has been a chronic invalid for months,
owing to a stomach disease, and for
weeks has been unable to keep food
on her stomach. She has been I'M
able to stand. Her ease was consid-
cred a hopeless one, and she has
grown worse rapidly. On Tuesday,
of last week, Joseph Moore and sew
eral other members of the Church Of
God called and engaged in prayer
for Mrs. Hams recovery. While the
prayer was in progress the invalid
felt relieved Of her pain, and since
then has rapidly gained in strength,
while the stomach trouble is disap-
pearing. The lady is confident that
her cure was caused by prayer.-Iio-

Will Allison be- In the Cabinet

indianapolis dispatch: Senator Allison
remained the guest of Gen. Harrison
last night and departed for Washington
this afternoon. He had another long
conference with the presideEt-elect this
morning. with no third party present.
At the depot several brief interviews
were had with the Iowa senator, but he
threw very little light on the cabinet
situation. Upon being told that he had
been slated by ONE correspondents for
the state department. instead of the
treasury, he laughed heartily and said:
''That is very good" He stated to a
gentleman that within the next few days
some important replies would be re-
ceived by the president-elect, and init
mated that a number of cabinet officers
had very recently been made. He is
also said to have let slip while convers-
ing hastily with q we'll known local gen.
tleman some expressions which had the
effect of impressing doubt upon the lat
ter's mind as to the certainty of Allison
having accepted the treasury portfolio.
The opinion is current that while the
senator's name will ultimately be
gazetted as the next secretary Of the
treasury, the bare possibility still exists
that he may, as an ultimatum, decline to
leave the senate. ApropOs of the state

Chicago dispatch: J. s. Clarkson, who

from New York, was asked in regard to
the dispatches sent out from Indianapo'
lis, saying that Senator Allison's visit
there was for the purpose of presenting
and urging Clarkson's name for the cabi-

life. "With the exception of Plumb,
Paddock and possibly one or two 9TH

republican friends in the senate are op-
posed to any change which takes him
from the party and the public service in
that body, and naturally this has had

IN Opinion on PASSENGER Rates,

Washington dispatch: The inter-
state commerce commission has promul.
gated an opinion on the subject of pas
senger tariffs and rate wars, prepared
by Judge Cooley. The paper narrates
the facts attending the war in passenger
rates at.St. Louis in October, and also
the circumstances of the passenger rate
war which prevailed at Chicago in De-
cember, both of which were investi-
gated by the commission. It is recon-
mended that the interstate commerce
act be amended SO as to define what
shall be considered excursion and COM
mutation tickets; to prohibit all pay
ment Of Commissions on the sale Of
tickets, and all sale of tickets for inter-
state business except by regular agents
of carriers; and to require carriers to
provide for the speedy and convenient
redemption of unused tickets or cou-
pons. The previous recommendations
in respect to amendments relating to
joint tariff and notice Of reduction of
rates are renewed.

Death-Bed Evidence Of a Train Robbery.

Chicago dispatch: The death-bed
confession of Ella Schwartz, wife of the
brakeman now serving a long sentence
in Joliet for completely in the great
Rock Island train robbery and murder
of Express Messenger Kellogg Tichols,
is made public to-day. According to
Mrs. Schwartz, her husband gave her
S13. 500 of the stolen money, which she
concealed by rolling the bills up one at
a time and packing them in cartridge
shells. This money, it is alleged, was
subsequently, on an order from
Schwartz, turned over to Colonel ". P.
Bowman, of Philadelphia, Schwartz
lawyer. An interview with Detective
w. A. Pinkerton is printed, relating
conversations in prison with Schwartz
and the latter's comrade, Newton Watt,
which, if true, would corroborate in a
measure the charge against Lawyer
Bowman. Pinkerton is also quoted as
having accused Bowman of receiving
the stolen money. The lawyer strenu-
ously denied the charge. Mrs. Schwartz
was some time ago repudiated by her
husband. She died of consumption
within the past few days. The expenses
of the funeral we're betrayed by the
Pinkertons, who saw that the woman
was cared for up to the time of her
death.

ScaIded 10 Death In a GeYser.

Cheyenne Wyo.) dispatch: News was
received here to-day of a singular fatal
ity, by which four Cinnamon lost their
lives. They were at Canyon City, neal
Yellowstone park, and Yet Sing had es-
tablished a wash house in a tent direct
iy over the boiling springs. He had
hot water constantly, and was doing a
thriving business. On Wednesday he
and three other Mongolians, who came
from adjoining camps, celebrated the
Chinese New Years. They burned fire
crackers and offerings to joss, and wound
up by getting drunk. Yet Sing had been
cautioned about the boiling spring, and
told that it might be q s~lumbering gey-
ser. For this reason his wash tubs were
kept on the other side of the tent, SO
that no soap might disturb the quiet
boiling water. No one knows how Yet
Sings box of laundry soap got over
turned into the spring, and it is more
than probable that some mischievous
miner emptied the soap into the slum-
bering geyser. That night there was a
Sudden spouting of the boiling water, a
tent flying through the air and piercing
yells. The miners rushed up and found
the geyser pouring water to q height of
over q hundred feet. The bodies of
four Cinnamon, scalded to death, were
found later at some distance from the
scene. They geyser spouted for three
hours and then subsidized.

a Decision Regarding Indian Rights.

Washington dispatch: The attorney
general has rendered an important de-
cision involving the right of Indians
who have taken allotments Of Land UNI
der the severalty act to dispose of tim
Der standing upon their several allot-
ments. It is in fact q declaration inval-
idating all contracts which have been
made between Indians, to whom lands
have been allotted and lumbermen, for
cutting timber from allotments, made
either in s~everalty act or under treaties
containing a twenty-five year alienation
clause. It is understood the treaties
with the northern Wisconsin Indians,
on whose reservation timber is being
cut under contract with those Indians,
contains this clause.
