The feast Of Purim is a season of rejoic-
ing among the Hebrews. The day preceding

fast. The evening is devoted to merry
making, confined largely u children. who
get up mask parties and visit Jewish
homes, where the visit is usually rev arded
by contributions Of money and other ar
ticles for the funmakers The observance
of the feast is based on the deliverance Of
the Jews from their enemies. as related in
the Book OF Esther. During a great feast

OF the king was merry with wine" he or
dered that Nashti, the queen, be brought be-
fore him, In order to display her beauty to
his guests. The result was that Nashti
was cast aside. The king selected Esther
as queen from among a number OF beauti-
ful virgins who were brought TO him by his
/ servants. Haman, who had "a seat above
/ all the princes that were with him at the
court. received the reverence Of all who
were within the kings gate Mordecai an
uncle of Queen Esther but who WAS nor

court, but refused to bow to Hannah who
became full Of wrath and decided to de-
stroy all the Jews for this act of Nordecai
Through diplomatic reasoning Hannah OBJ

In response to the invitations issued
by the Copper company, some 600 peo-
pie boarded a special train of eight
coaches at the Union Pacific depot
yesterday morning and were soon
speeding away toward the tall stack
on the banks of the Jordan.
The party was made up largely OF
subscribers to the fund raised for the
purpose of inducing Messrs. Posey &
Green to locate the works here, and
among them were many prominent
mining men, city officials and several
ladies.
The run was made in few minutes,
and on disembarking, the party was
met by Otto Stallman and conducted
through the numerous immense build
ings in various stages of completion.
A few more weeks and the mammoth
plant will be in good running order,
but even now, the magnitude OF the
enterprise. can be seen. The inspec-
ton lasted about an hour, and every
portion of the plant was examined.
What attracted especial attention was
the big ore platform on which thou
sands of tons of copper ore from the
company's mines was piled.
After the inspection, the start home
ward was made, and the concensus OF
opinion was that the company had
done all that was anticipated. During
the home run, Anheuser-Busch beer
flowed freely, and altogether the trip
was a very pleasant and profitable
