PROOF PILED UPON PROOF.

Another proof Of the error of this view
is that the form in which the Old Tesla
ment was known to the New Testament
writer's was an imperfect translation Of the
Hebrew into Greek called the Septuayint
The translation upon which all the early
churches based their canon, modern Prot
estantism has now rcpudiated, vet to set
up the claim OF unerring verbal accuracy
for book based upon this Greek version
of the Old Testament is folly. Moreover,
the manner in which New Testament wri-
tiers employ this translation is mode of
using Scripture which no intelligent wri-
ter can accept at the present day.
"Still another proof Of the error of this
view of the Bible is the circumstance that
the truths of the Bible are presented in
local and temporary forms ; for instance,
notice the embarrassment which Christian
missionaries encounter in translating the
imagery OF the Testament into the lancu-
age OF the natives they teach. In Alaska
there Is no better way of translating the
opening OF the tweaty- third Psalm than to
say, The Lord is frst-class mountain
hunter. The beautiful text in Isaiah.

Though dislike to say it, the fishing about
Big Stone Gap is not what it should be. Rail
road hands have almost cxterminated the sup
nly of bass above the dams, and until they
are blown out we need not expect new sup
nly. unless some effort is made to restock the
streams from the Government fishery. This
can be easily done if application is made and
why it is not made do not understand. The
Government has an abundance of young fish
which can be had for the asking. That the
fish here have been exhausted, there is no ques-
ton. Even uncle John Hardin, who is an ex-
pert angler and who fishes all winter amid ice
and snow to keep his hand in, can not make
fair catch. Mr. Bush and Captain Mathcny
have almost abandoned the sport, though they
still visit the river banks, look with admiration
at the clear, ripping water and argue about
the best time and best bait for catching fish if
they were only there. DR.. Bullitt is abroad,
and before he left ate the three pound bass he
had sncored out and which he used to show to
his friends every day or two to save his
reputation as fisherman.
Quantities of walnut and other valuable
timber that has been cut into logs and waiting
for the completion of the railroad, is being
rapidly hauled to Pennington Gap, Big Stone
Gap and other points on the L. & n. railroad
for shipment. Passenger trains will be put on
the n. & w. railroad Sunday, and through
freight trains will be run July /. Much of
this timber will go East, though heavy orders
are being filled for the West. Roads from
Black Mountain through all the gaps are being
crowded with teams hauling the heavy logs.
Many of the black walnut logs are from forty
to fifty inches in diameter and of course the
poplar is much larger.
Our fire brigade has only ladders and buck
cts, which would not avail much in large fire.
It should be provided with reel and few
pieces Of hose of various length. When these
are furnished, Mr.. Jennings. superintendent OF
the water works, will turn on the pressure and
show the boys how to throw zoe feet stream.

Robbed by His Clerks

KANSAS CRY, Dec. s.-sensational
features marked the opening address of
w. A. Watts, attorney for ex-Oity
Treasurer William Peek. who is being
tried in the criminal court on the charge
of embezzling $685. 600 of the city's
money. Watts said the defense pro-
posed to show that the city treasury
was robbed by clerks in the Office. all
of whom had been in the habit of
gambling. When Peek needed money
on his salary account he
would take it from the cash
drawer and substitute a ticket. The
defense would show that these tickets
had been raised from small to great
amounts. For instance, one ticket fer
$25 had been raised to 1925; the de.
tense would show who had so raised the
ticket. All the clerks frequented q
well-known gambling resort during
their employment in the city treasurers
office. When they needed money they
would abstract itfrom the cash drawer
and. add the amount stolen to one of
the city treasurer's tickets. The evil
dence of the defense today was con-
fined to prove that Peck's character
was good.
