But still! we follow our Chiestain in His
march through the centuries. for invisibly
He still walks the earth. and by the eye Of
faith we still follow Him. You can tell
where He walks by the churches, and hos
pita:s, and reformatory institutions and
houses Of mercy that spring up along the
way. l hear His tread in the sick room and
in the aboies Of bereavement. He marches
on and the nations are gathering
around Hin. The islands Of the sea are
hearing Ills voice. The continents are feel
ing His power. America will be His! Europe
will be His! Asia will be His! Africa will bs
His! Australia will be His! New Zealand will
be Els! All the earth will be His! Do you real

the world has been created has the world
been known, measured OFF and geoCra-

an earnestness and velocity as yet unim

The Result Of Merit.

When anything stands . test Of
Fifty years among discriminating
people like the Americans, il is pretty
good evidence that there is merit some.
where. The value of a medicine is
best proved by its continued use from
year to year BY the same persons and
families, as we'll as by steady in
creasins sale. Few, if any, medicines
have met with such continued success
and popularity Ms has marked the
introduction and progress OF BRAND
RETn's Pulls, which, after trial of
over fifty years, are conceded to be
the safest and most effectual purga-
tive introduced to the public.
That this isthe result of merit, and
that BRANDRETH's PILLS actually
perform all that is claimed for them,
is concluslvoly proved by the fact that
those who regard them with the
greatest favor are those who have used
them the longest.
BRANDRETHs PILLS are sold in
every drug and medicine store, either
plain or sugar. coated.

The weather was very cold in this
city yesterday. At Z o'clock in the
morning the mercury stood at IA de.
grees below zero, and the cold did not
moderate much until nigh,fall, when
some snow fell.
The boys from the neiehbcring
mining camps came down Thursday
and began whooping things up. AT
the Methods: church tree festival
was held, grand ball was given at
tho Alturas Hotel, and in various
dwellings where the children are
plentiful as strawberries in June fam.
lily trees were weighted in the usual
manner.
A damper was, however, put upon
much of the merrymaking by the Civ.
ing out of the electric lights, owing to
the accumulation of ice in the ditch
whence the power Of the works is
derived.
The excessive cold kept most peo>

accompaniment Of the day were not

Mems Dress for summer

The sash never obtained much favor
among men who dress particularly well;
there was something about it that was
too "dressy" and conspicuous to suit a
quiet taste, and this summer it is con-
sldered almost obsolete. The narrow,
plain russell belt is now declared to be
the thing to wear with flannel suits.
Inc flannel shirt also seems a thing of
the past and is replaced by cheviots and
Oxfords. These shirts are Numbered
without starch, with the exception of
collars and cuffs, which are stiff and are
generally worn with gold studs.
The delicate colors of pink and blue
which seem to be the favorite this
season are very becoming, and look par
ticularly we'll with white Aannels
White flannel trousers with a light gray
homespun jacket, russell belt, and chew
lot shirt look always decidedly good
form. while the narrow striped flannel
suits, with coat and trousers to match.
still hold their own as general favorites.

fords are worn as much as ever, but the
colors are rather darker than last year.

Grayhack's Perpetual Shows.

A party Of local explorers, among
whom were the Rev. J. Fl. Cross and
lev. A. A. Holden, has just returned
from an excursion to the top of GRAY
back, noted mountain that stands
| guard on the north side of San Gorpo-
MO pass. After spending the night on
the peak the party started to return by
different route. On their journey they
saw canyon about 600 feet deep, with
perpendicular walls, and on peering over
the side, snow was seen at the bottom.
Going to the head of the canyon thew
found place where they could slide
down, and one by one the party took
the risk
After sliding several hundred feet they
came to body Of ice and snow, which
they followed down. 1t was nearly a
mile in length, and from the cracks it
was ascertained that the ice was about
% feet thick by 60 feet wide. Large
powders as big as house were lying on
top of the ice. There was no appear
ance of the glacier melting, and the sun
does not reach the bottom Of the canyon
more than an hour each day. That the
glacier possessed motion was proved by
the fact that immense rocks were pushed
forward out of their beds by masses of
ice and snow.
The bottom of the cracks was of a
dirty yellowish color and looked very
Old. There is a stream Of water flowing
from the lower end, probably fed by
springs under the glacier and mass of
Ice, which may have been in that canyon
for ages By testing the thermometer
In boiling water Grayback was found to
be exactly II, 800 feet above the sea level
Water was boiled at 1913 degs. Fahren-
heit
The camp was some 5000 feet below
the peak, and one Of the party on the top
tried his voice and shouted in the diec.
ton of the camp, and those who re-
manned below stated that they heard the
voice family. The temperature on the
top of the peak was 80 dogs. at 4 o'clock
in the morning, but ia small lake up there
was frozen and covered with snow
