Cologne's Carnival.

Cologne has been celebrating the
carnival by historical and artistic
procession around the cathedral, in
Guiding young women who represented
st. Ursula and her 1000 virgins, the
town tower and the mercenaries en-

that it is the direct representative of

Enormous Output of Gold In the Month
Our Cripple Creek correspondent
estimates that the gold output OF Grip
ple Creek district in June was $l,l9O,-
352, says the Denver Republican. he
represents that this is conservative
estimate, and it is probable that 1t IS
not far from correct. 1t is difficult 20
get definite figures in matter of this
kind, but it is probable that the sum
named is close enough to the actual
output for practical purposes. 1t ap-
pears from this estimate that Cripple
Creek is holding up we'll in its pro-
duction of gold, and that if the same
pace is maintained it will make
splendid record for the year. The out
put for the year should not fall below
$12,0OO,O0O, or an average of Sl,OOO,O0O
per month. In the event that this Is
done the total gold product of the
state will far exceed that Of California
in 1896, and it is probable that Califor-
MIA will not do much better this year
than it did last. Cripple Creek is, in
deed, a wonder. 1t is the greatest goiG
camp in the United States, which Is
equivalent to saying that it is one of The
greatest gold camps in the world. 1t is
producing at greater rate now than
al any time previous to this year, ex-
cept that during the last two months
o. 1895 it probably produced 100000
in each month. But that product was
not maintained. January, 1896, showed
heavy decline. But the district Is
producing $1,O00,00O per month as a
regular thing. 1t promises to average
this during the remainder Of the year,
IT 1t does not do even better. 1t should
be observed that there is nearly every
reason to believe that the annual prod
uct Of this district will be increased in
the future, as new properties are de-
veloped into ore producers and ship
rers. The camp is still greatly in need
of development, which it will receive
In the course of time. OF course, it
cannot be reasonably maintained that
every property will become a regular
producer of gold. Much of the area of
the district may be barren. But on tho
other hand, it is altogether reasonable
to suppose that much undeveloped ter
r;tory will prove productive in the
course of time. We know no reason
why, in the course of time, and as
result of extensive development, Grip
ule Creek should not produce $4,000, 900
instead of, as now, $1,OO0,OOO a month.
An annual product Of $4,000 would
still leave the district far below the
output of the Rand country in South
Africa. This yield is within the reach
of Cripple Creek, we believe, and we
hope it will he attained before a great
while. 1t will, however, require the
development of properties which now
have comparatively little work on
them, but upon which development
ought to be vigorously pushed.

Obituary.

Alice Virginia Smallwood, beloved
wife Of Mr.. Henry Smallwood, was born
September 10, 1867, and died at her home
at Halltown, Jefferson county. W. Va,
Gecemb Der 80, 1896, age % years, 3 months
and 20 days. She was the daughter Of
Joseph H and Mary E. Wageley, through
whose pious training she was converted
in early youth and became a consistent
member of the Baptist Church. OF a
bright, cheerful disposition, she was
loved by all who knew her. Faithful in
every relation of life, and consecrated to
the service Of God, she left behind her
the testimony Of good name and we'll
spent life. She talked of death with as
much composure as though she was
speaking of life's affairs and fell into its
embrace as a child falls asleep on its
mothers bosom. To those who so kind
ly administered to her during her sick
ness she spoke most tenderly. To hus-
band, father and mother. brothers and
listers. she told them not to grieve after
her that she was going home to her Saw
Tor and 10 meet brother Charley. who had
preceded her Il little more than year
ago. She was, indeed, a shining mark
for death; but he found her watching.
She was prepared for it, and her transi-
ton was beautiful illustration Of For
me to live is Christ and to die is gain. )"
A dear one from the home circle has
gone voice we loved is hushed. Our
loss her eternal gain. We loved her well;
God loved her best.
Funeral service, conducted by Rev.
Cole, was held in the Mt. Zion church,
two miles north of Leetown, near her
maternal home, and her remains laid to
rest in the churchyard there beside those
of her brother. The bereaved ones have
the sympathy of the entire community.

Opening Of the Infant Room.

The opening exercises of the new in
FAINT room of the NJ. <. Church South
last Sunday at p. m. was an interesting
occasion. Mrs. d. l.. Rentch, principal
of the infant department, conducted the
exercises, and, in her Introductory re-
marks, gave touching account of the
circumstances that led up to the new
building. The congregation sang the
doxology just at the close of the address.
The pastor offered prayer and the super
intendent read the scripture lesson. The
address OF welcome by Abram Sisler was
peculiarly appropriate, as was also the
Rotations by Eunice Neel and Louise
Tenant. The chants, songs and duet
by the infant class were beautiful.
An interesting feature occurred in the
middle of the programme. An original
poem had been committed by Louise
Licklider representing the infant de-
partment. The recitation spoke the de-
serving praise of the ''chief of the infant
room, Mrs. d. L. Rentch- The pastor
requested the privilege of adding this to
the programme. Mrs Rentch replied 4:
Certainly, with an innocent smile, and
in profound ignorance of what was COM
ing. The little girl was lifted 10 chair,
and before the astonished face of her
teacher recited the poem beautifully.
The effect can be better imagined than
told.
Rev. A. A. P. Neel followed with an
appropriate address. An interesting let
ter was read from Miss Laura Strider.
Mr.. G.. T. Licklider read the report of
the building committee. All the eX-
penses of building and furnishing the
new room had been met, excepting $50.
The pastor made the closing address and
congratulated the church on the small
balance TO be raised to free the building
of debt, and suggested that the amount
be raised at once. A collection was Ia
ken and in few moments the whole in
debtedness was provided for The audi
ence was requested to pass through the
infant department on retiring and in
spect the room and its furnishings. This
Sunday school is now well equipped for
its important work, and is thoroughly
alive to its responsibility.

JULIUS HINES&S0N,
Baltimore, Md.

In Knoxville, Tennessee, for several
wears have fourished six Of the larg-
est building and loan associations IN
the country, including the Southern,
All but two Of them have gone into
receivers hands within the past few
DAYS. The Supreme Court of Tennes-
see, at a recent sitting in Knoxville,
rendered an opinion adverse to the IN
terests of the associations. This caused
hundreds of suits to be filed against
them to recover property and then
came thousands of applications by
stockholders and shareholders for with
drawals. The Southern was put IN
the hands of temporary receivers few
days ago, and at a meeting OF the
stockholders Tuesday they asked that
the receivers be made permanent and
the business wound up. The Savings,
Building and Loan Association was
also given a receiver the same day,
and the Knoxville Covenant Associa-
ton went through the same process
Monday. Many persons in West Vir-
GINA are interested in these companies.
