There is an excellent probability that the
wild excitement of 1892 will be partially
repeated next spring in the vicinity of
Mitchell, Crook county. VIM. Bethune
has recently made discoveries on his farm,
the McGraw patent, purchased BY him Of
I. N. Sargent, which show the county to be
rich in ledges that resembles the famous
Comstock lode in Virginia city. Mr..
Bethune has owned this place for several
years, and becoming tired OF hauling water
to his house every dry season, last summer
commenced digging in moist place on the
side hill in the hope of striking a vein Of
water, but instead of this he struck vein
of rotten granite quartz loaded with gold.
At the distance of thirty feet well defined
ledge, about thirty inches thick was ope ned.

Apeculiar accident occurred few days
ago which the parties Immediately con-
cerned will not soon forget, says the La
Grande Chronicle. 1t was all on account
of silver dollar which was at that time,
and is now, in the possession of Richard
Kelly. A number of friends were trying
to gain possession of the coin, and in the
scuffle which ensued Mr.. Kelly thrust the
money into his mouth and Immediately
afterward-to make assurance doubly
sure, perhaps-swallowed It. 1t lodged
In his throat and for awhile Mr.. Kelly's
chance of life looked very slim. How
ever, physician was Immediately sum-
moned, and by the aid of dry wheat bread
the obstruction was slowly worked down
his throat. Mr.. Kelly feels no bad effects
at present from this strange addition to
the contents of his stomach, and the prob
abilities are the acids of the system will
in time dissolve the metal.

THE MILLENIUM.
Rev. A. n. Kcigwin Believes il is
Near at Hand.

The Rev. A. n. Kegwin, a Presbyterian
minister, of Wilmington maintains that
the Jews will regain possession of the
Holy Land about 1897 and that this event
as well as others now transpiring. prog
nosticates the early return of Christ 10
the earth where he shall rule in righteous
ness for one thousand years The rever-
end gentleman gives the Bible as the
authority for his statements and sincere
faith as "A warrant for giving public vent
10 his convictions MI kcigwin says:
MY object is 10 arouse the people TO a
realization that the secohd coming of
Christ is near AT hand. Five hundred
years before the first coming of Christ.
the Jews had become skepiical but few
among them, their prophets, had been
wiser than their day and generation and
they warned the people of the coming OF
Christ The result was that when Christ
came the Jews were prepared for the
coming of Messiah. even though they
rejectcdtheir rightful Savior, Jesus Christ
ut will be thus at Christ's second com
ing. | expect that when | read the dis
patches in the newspapers informing us
of Chrst's arrival on earth, probably
three fourths of the people will not ac-
cept him rs tie Son OF God How are we
going To know when lie has come among
us? According to the Scriptures. the
inner conscience will inform the faithful
There Is no reference to the Jews and
their wanderings in the Bible that has
not definite time attached II would be
strange thing, in view OF these facts, if
during the later troubles aud wanderings
of Jews, there were not a definite time
fixed for their restoration. As matter
of tact that date is frequently stated in
the Scriptures and forthcoming events
are graphically pictured in Ezekiel, from
the thiriy-sixth 10 the foriieth chapters
Every sign points to the restoration of
the Jews TO their land, and the impending
breach among the nations for the possess
ion of the East Indies will probably be
the means of bringing about this restora-
tion.
Il believe that when the time comes.
there will be general exodus Of Jews 10
the Holy Land, where they will quickly
formulate their own government and will
build their temple 1t is well-known
fact that the Jews to-day control the
wealth of the nations, and they shall
reign in greater splendor than ever be-
fore.
Soon after their temple is built Christs
second coming will take place should
Judge that the event would be not later
than ten years after the completion Of the
temple, although say that figure merely
as a guess, as there is no evidence in the
Scriptures when The event shall take
place definitely.
Il am firm believer in these things

COAL OPERATORS UNITE.
A Gigantic Scheme to Control the Markets
and Advance Prices.

A Gigantic Scheme to Control the Markets
and Advance Prices.
The soft coal operators east of the Alle-
gheny Mountains have organized under the
name of the Seaboard Steam Coal Company
with an incorporated capital of $50, 200, 900
to control the market and keep up the
price of coal. The intention is to control
the bituminous trade from Eastport to Key
West, and from the Allegheny Mountains
to the Atlantic. The different companies
were driven into this combine by the cut
in prices through sharp competition. 1t is
expected to market between 1900, 900 and
ID, 1000. 900 tons of coal year.
The local coal operators, when spoken to,
say this combination will affect the trade
west of the mountains only indirectly, as
the coal in and around Pittsburg is sent to
the West and South. Captain w. B.
Rodgers said yesterday: 1.-THE only way
such combine would affect US would be in
putting up the price of coal SO high as to
allow US to compete with them. I do not
think such condition will arise. I be-
lieve, however, that the stiffening Of prices
in the Eastern markets will tend to make
prices better. This combine is very likely
to have been instigated by the railroads
and men interested in their line of busi.
ness. know of no move Of that nature
among the operators in the Pittsburg dis
trict"
