On our next trip we visited this en-
terprising little town of La Harpe,
six miles east of the county seat, in
order to participate in the annual
convention of Sunday School workers,
which is a regular thing with nearly
every township in Allen county. The
attendance was not very large but
interest good. A history of the
various schools established in the
Township during the twenty-nine
years past was given, which will
probably be given the REGISTER for
publication. There are now four
schools, three church organizations
and two good church buildings in the
Township.
In town there have been and are
being built number of new houses
and several new branches of business
have been added to the enterpising
ones already there. One of the big
gest gas aOelIs of the belt Is located
only one half mile south of town and
in another one one mile north of town
gas was struck the day we visited
La Harpe, thus assuring power, fuel
and lights for all desired amount of
machinery as soon as it can be ar
ranged to pipe it to the place.

which included Denver and Cripple
Creek, At the latter place the senator
is largely interested in gold mining,
Speaking OF this wonderful gold camp"
In the course of Il conversation with an
lntellIgencer man, Mr., Scott said;
Cripple Creek is undoubtedly the
greatest gold camp in the world, Twice
within a t%welvemonth the PLACE has
been wiped out by fire, and each time
rebuilt better than the last, with fine
streets, hotels and all modern con-
%veniences, o city OF twenty thousand,
all built ard peopled since 1892, with
Its mines, railroads, city street railways,
water works and electricity, ! Won
dered II this was the place ! visited In
1882, when scarcely a cabin dotted the
then cattle ranch.
The mining camp Of Cripple Greek
is on the undulatlng slope of Pixies
peak, where the country is nc rougher
than most Of the billy country OF the
middle states. But little snow falls
there and there Is almost perpetual
sunshine, and II Is one Of the few min
ing camps in the world where mining
can be prosecuted the year round with
out serious intermissions. The weather
is no rougher than at Colorado Springs,
which city Is known throughout The
world for its equable and salubrlOus
climate.
THE camp itself supports two modern
cities Of considerable size, which At
ford nearly every advantage, both bus
mess and social, OF the larger-siacd
places OF the east. These cites are I'M
mediately surrounded by the gold dig
gings," some of the hest mines: IN fact,
being within the very city limits, Who
ever heard OF such n thing In Il mining
campl An electric railroad through
out the camp as the street cars OF a
large city!
And wonders never ce Sc n Is now
proposed to light the entire Camp, every
town and every mine and every road
way, by electricity, and moreover to
propel every bit OF machinery in the
entire camp, even to the drills a thou
sand feet under ground. by the SAINT
subtle agency. One company has for
some time been at work upon a huge
electric plant. Surely Cripple Creek Is
the wonder OF the world and Is worthy
the appellation OF 'parlor car mining
camp Of America.
THE camp is adding at least twelve
million dollars OF gold to the worlds
supply this year, and l predict that In
less than two years 1t will be double
that amount"

The New York Commercial Advertiser
said OF Mrs. Flske and "Tess OF the

the Opera House in this city, on Tues
day, November 20: Mrs, Fiske must
be credited with the greatest histronic
achievements of the season, She has
presented to the sight and hearing of a

woman for whom Thomas Hardy has
invoked the sympathy OF the world. 1t
Is a wonderful Tess that Mrs, Fiske pre-
sents-wonderful because 1t is the in
|carnatlon OF one of the subtlest and yet
most natural characters that a novelist
has drawn in this age. This Tess will
make the dramatic version OF Tess of

may become only second to the novel
In Its power Of gripping the hearts OF
all p~resent-day humanity. The scenery
Is picturesque as to exteriors, and
Stonehenge by moonlight Is a remark
