Ks.oa.n. Salvation.

Mir. Edward Atkinson pins his faith to coal oil. What it cannot do toward alleviating the sufferings of the poor may well be left out altogether. Mir. Atkinson's latest exploit is the invention and of course the attendant description in the newspapers of a cooking table, whereby with the aid of a kerosene lamp any boy who never saw range or bake pan may prepare the most delicious and appetizing food at a cost of $l week. MT. Atkinson recommends his idea as Q specific against hard times.
 You get a sheet of galvanized iron with a 2A inch hole in the middle. Mount the sheet upon legs feet high. There is your cooking table. Put under it a kerosene lamp, light it, and, presto! in hours you can turn the toughest old hen in the market into the most deli cious fricasseed chicken that ever graced millionaire's board. You must cut up the old hen and put her into a vegetable dish along with such season. ing as you desire. Set a piece of tile or earthenware over the hole, put upon that brick, and upon the brick put the vegetable dish containing the old hen. Cover the dish first with stone jar or crock; cover the jar again with a wood en pail. This is to keep the heat in. In like manner you can take the mos desperate old steers shin and turn it in to beef stew that will make the moutl water, all by the aid of kerosene. The main thing is to get low heat for [ long time. If your cooking pot or yes sel is large one, hoist an empty flouI barrel up side down over it to keep thu heat in. All depends on a low heat ap lied long time and kept in. This i very fine, all of it. Possibly, however the landlady who rents the little hall bed room for a weekly pittance to the lon man might object to his bringing in flour barrel and d cooking table, like wise to the burning of a kerosene lam all night.

 Burning.
 DEADwoop, =. D., Sept. 2l.-The forest fire which has been burning in this vicinity for 10 days reached Lead City. Help was requested from all neighboring towns, and l, 800 men battled with the fire. The city of 5000 inhabitants seemed to be doomed.
 A bad fire is gaining great heHdway on top of the Black Tail divide, threatening Central City and the county poorhouse. One hundred men are engaged in fighting it. At Near mountain terrible state of af- fairs exists. The inhabitants of Terry, q mining camp of 800 persons, h;x left the town to the flames Everythin. ere will be a total loss, and the damage wlIl amount to S6o,O ,OO0 The Buxton mill and dwelling house, valued at Sl2,OOo, were destroyed. The fire is raging with great fury over an area of seven miles long and six wide.
 The Uncle Sam stamp mill and the town of Perry, l3 miles distant, have been de stroyed
 A fire is burning at the fair grounds, two miles from here, and the stables, race track and other buildings will probably be de stroyed. A train has just left here fol Fort Mead to bring up three companies tC aid the citizens in controlling the flames.

How do you pronounce "tumatC?' The dictionary snys you may call it either to-may-to or to-mah-to. One lady writes that she will call it to-mah-to to the end of her days, because all the re fined people" she knows call it that with one exception. That one lady sturdily insists that to-luay- to is right. So it is. unless you broaden the "a" also in pota- to, for they are just the same kno of words Would you say po-tar-to?

10 seconds. This performance occurred at the annual championships of the A. \. U. and was accepted as worlds record. Although all the crack sprintcrs of the world, including Harry Jewett, Luther Cary and Richards of Yale. have cndeavorCd to equal this performance none of them succeeded until Stage ran his great race at Cleveland Sept. .
 On the same day Stage also won the DO and 40 yards runs in fast time. Stage is native of Gainesville, c. He first began to attract attention as a spriuter last year, when he ran second to Iewctt at Cleveland. and by running three dead heats with l.. D. Cabanne at Detroit. Stage ran from scratch and Cabanne from the three yard mark. In the fourth heat Cabanne won by few inches.
 Stage is feet tall and closely rcsem bles Jewett, the spriutius; ANouis uf Amer ica He runs in an unusually erect attitude fora sprintcr and k as graceful as he is swift. When Stage is not sprinting, he studies law.

When the splendid new triple screw cruiser Columbia was planned. it was with the design of combining in her high speed with great coal economy and endurance. The preliminary trip of the vessel from the Cramps shipyard fully justifes tho expectation and will earn for her builders the premium which no American grudges to them for con structing what promises to be tho fastest naval vessel afioat. Under unfavorable conditions of wind and water the colum- bia made maximum speed of 9l 3-10 knots an hour. with her engines indi- eating much less than their maximum power. This Is the highest speed made by any vessel of our navy on the pre- liminary trip.

Tin. Mineral Range Train Robbery

HANCOCK, Mich, Sept. 2l.-The latest developments in the Mineral Range train robbery indicate that the Pinkerton de- tectives have been spreading the story of the recovery of the stolen money in the hope of getting confession as to it's hiding place from some of the men under arrest. This scheme has evidently failed them. All the men arrested deny emphatically that they have made any confession. Of the l3 persons arrested for compliciry in the robbery only five are now in custody.

It was n terrible and daring exploit the robbing of an express train in Indi- ana by gang of 20 masked scoundrels Such thing could scarcely have hap pened i'll any part of Europe. It shows that this country of ours, even- in its thickly settled parts, is not yet beyond the stage of newncss. Tho feat of tho highwaymen will furnish material for dime novels for boys during the next half dozen years. But it is to be hoped that the romancers will be sure to add the finale of the adventure, which will be this: Although the masked murder ous villains got away at tho time, they will in the long run be caught and brought to justice. Robbers. even the most daring and romantic. come to a striped suit within penitentiary walls at last in case they do not previously get their brains blown out.

AnImpressiyc Scene.

Never perhaps was the brotherhood of man so near at hand. At any rate, never before in the worlds history was possi- ble such a meeting of men of all faiths as that which lately came together in the international congress of religions at Chicago. Rev. Augusta Chapin was not far from right when she said that the parliament of religions was the grandest and most significant gathering that had ever assembled on this earth, for it ap- pealed to all who wore the garb of hu- manity. Cardinal Gibbons reminded the congress that there was one platform on which all the delegates were united, and that was charity, humanity and benevo- lence. A deeper truth still Protat Chun- der Mazoomdar uttered when he told the audience that the grandest religion was that which united all religions.
 Perhaps some day the artist shall rise who can do justice in a great historic painting to the scene upon the platform at the opening. A Roman Catholic prel- ate high in office. wearing his priestly robes, entered first of those taking their places. He was escorted by an Ameri- can business man, the president of the worlds congress auxiliary. Then came two beautiful women, and after them, many being clad in their ceremonial garments. entered the Buddhist, the Protestant, the follower of Confucius the Jew and the adherent of the Scotch kirk. Ono petition these people of every nation and kindred and tongue could unite in repeating, the Lords Prayer one song could thrill all their souls alike with divine harmony, the majestic Praise God From Whom All Blessings Flow"
