interest, as the life OF the camp depends
largely upon the price OF the red metal
The discouraging reports which came from

Palmer, Of the Butte & Boston, said: 81
simply do not credit the rumor OF the col
lapse of the syndicate that has been con-
trolling the copper market. There has
been no indication that any such thing was
coming. OF course there has been tire.
mendous panic in France. and the effect Is
visible In the fail Of syndicate stock, but
the combination has stood as firm as rock.
All a producer had TO do was to show
his stock In the warehouse, and his money
was ready for him In the bank. All the

In the senate.

WASHINGTON, March l8.-The senate
opened with the vice president In the chair.
The resolution heretofore offered by Glib
son tor the appointment Of q select CON-
mittee on relations with Mexico and Gen.
trail America was taken up. Gibson de-
Tended himself from the charge that he
wanted the committee appointed In order
that, as chairman. he might go on junket
to Mexico. After further talk the resolu-
ton was referred 10 the committee on com
merce and the senate proceeded In execu-
tive business. When the doors were re-
opened, after very short interval, the SEN
ats proceeded 10 the consideration OF the
resolution heretofore offered for the ap-
pointment of select committee on the re-
Iati0ns between the United States with
Cuba and other West Indian islands. The
discussion turned on the question OF the
competency OF the senate IN called execu-
tive session 10 enter upon the performance
OF Legislative functions.
Sherman said the precedents on that
point all turned, not on the power OF the
senate 10 do so, but whether Il was wise 20
enter upon n legislative question at an
extraordinary session. lie thought not.
After further discussion without dlsposing
OF the question, the pending motion being TO
refer the resolution 10 the committee on
foreign relations, the senate again pro-
ceeded 10 the consideration of executive
business and then adjourned.

WASHINGTON, March ls.-The Interstate

In the matter Of export rates and methods

THANKSGIVING SERVICES,
The Tabernacle Fair---Per-
tinent Paragraphs on
the Doings of Vari-s
Gus Congregations.

Few church-goers in this city have not
mon ON church courtesy and some have
accordingly made good resolutions con
cerning this one part of Christian life,
and others have let it pass unheeded.
Nearly all churches, except the Catholic
and Episcopal, depend, to quite an extent,
upon the social attractiveness of the
church to draw strangers to it, but
although they make a real effort to do all
that should be done, l have known
strangers to attend churches in this city
for months, and not one of the congrega-
tion has wished him a good morning. 1t
is now the duty of the Christian Endeavor
Society to attend to this particular work
in the church, and generally it is very
successfully done. 1t is generally the
minister's wife, who is expected to take
the lead in all acts of church courtesy to
strangers although it is. the duty of all
-and.if it SO chance the minister's wife is
diffident with strangers, reserved or shy,
or, as is sometimes the case, not popular
with the congregation, then the strangers
are apt to be neglected.
saya word of welcome to any outsider
who may come to their church, but many
shrink from the task and actually dread
it. An odd incident occurred but short
time ago i'll one of our largest churches.
The minister had just been called to the
charge, and being desirious that all should
go well in the church, read his wife, who
was shy, backward little woman, a
lectur e on church courtesy.
above all things" said he, speak to
every stranger you may notice in the con-
gregationn After receiving these in
structions the thought of Sunday became
a perfect nightmare-but like all days no
matter how dreaded it finally came. The
minister's wife went 10 church-she was
well, and SO were the children, and no
good reason offered for her remaing away,
SO she had to so.
Directly in front of her sat hand
somely dressed and tine-Iooking woman
whom she knew to be stranger, and she
thought she would be good one to speak
to first. The sermon was preached-it
was the shortest one the minister's wife
had ever heard, the hymns were sung,
but she could not tell one from the other,
and then the benediction was pronounced.
This was the time to extend her hand to
welcome the stranger, and after Sec
ond's hesitation she did it in sweet and
pretty manner, saying, Il am delighted
To see you here today"
Imagine her surprise when the stranger
drew back, viewed her from head TO foot
and then said Madam, you have made
mistake, l do not know you.'
She then sailed out of church as though
the minister's wife had insuited her,
This Indy never again made she attempt
to welcome a stranger; she felt sure it
would De Kindness thrownaway. ~
This was, of course, most exceptional
case, and generally it makes stranger
feel much more comfortable if word of
welcome is said to him. The churches,
hope, will not leave this entirely to the
care of the Christian Endeavor Society,
but the older members do some of It
