On Thursday evening of last week the men,
bers of St. Mary 5 Reformed Church surprised
their pastor with pleasant party. The
and about O. clock the crowd marched to the
parsonage taking the pastor and his family
completely by surprise. The pastor jumped
from his chair and shook hands as fast as he
could but could not shake hands fast enough.
The crowd soon engaged in social chat and at
about II o'clock the pastor made an appro-
pirate speech After the speech all were in
vited to the dining room where a table was
set with all that heart could desire, to which
ample justice was done. After supper social
chat was resumed until late hour when all
returned home well pleased A handsome
purse of money was handed to the pastor
wife, while Joe, who is faithful to his master.
was not forgotten. The pastor returned thanks
to the members for their kindness and said
what happens the second time will happen the
third, but the Dr. might be mistaken as not
everything must be done on New YEARS. Eve.
About 175 people were present.

The Monetary Conference.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7.-Senator Chandler
has practically made canvass of the Senate
on the proposition for an international con-
ference on silver, and concludes that there
will be no opposition worth the name. The
bill will not be introduced in the Senate, how
ever, until it is accepted by the Republican
caucus, as the committee was instructed to re-
port to the caucus. The language of the bill
is substantially as follows:
"That whenever the President of the United
States shall, after March 4, 1897, determine
that the United States should be represented
at any international conference called either
by the United States or the government of
some other country, with a view to secure,
internationally, fxity of relative value be-
tween gold and silver as money by means OF
a common ratio between those metals, with
free mintage at such RATIO the United States
shall be represented at such conference by
five or more delegates to be selected by the
President.
''For the compensation of said delegates,
together with all reasonable expenses con-
nected Herewith, to be approved by the Sec
paid by the United States of the joint ex-
penses of such conference, the sum Of $780,
000 of so much thereof as may be necessary,
is hereby appropriated
1t is understood that the Republican caucus
to formally decide upon the bill will be held
next week,
The London Times speaking of Senator
Woloott's visit to England in the cause of bi-
metallism, says the Senator will be given a
cordial welcome, shut public opinion to Eng
land is more hostile than before to bimetal-
lisn. Nothing can be hoped from the visit
except as a political move and a salve to the
silverites The failure of Mr.. Wocott's mis-
sion is certain. No public man, whatever his
theoretical views would think the present an
opportune moment to meet the question and
this opinion will subsist, at all events, as long
as bimetallism appears to be dropped or re-
vived according to the exigencies Of American
domestic politics

Farewell mama, lay me gently
III my little narrow bed,
For twas God who gave and took me,
Now I'm numbered with the dead.
Weep not for me now, papa
For am SO bright and fair;
have gone to join the angels,
have climbed the golden stair.

For I've gone to be an angel

You may sing to me a song,
Sing to me song of heaven
When the summer days grow long.

Weep not for me- my wife most dear,
You know how did suffer here;
1ou know that endured much pain,
And that your loss Is my great gain.
'Tis true left you here to mourn,
And never shall to you return;
But if you re faithful to the end
The God of love will be your friend,
Farewell, my children and wife too,
My heart was sad to part with you;
But since it was the Saviours will,
Trust him-He doeth all things well.
oh. husband father, must we give you up.
You whom We loved so we'll;
How can we drink the bitter cup
And say a last farewell.
His busy hands are folded
His work on earth is done;
His trials are all ended,
His heavenly throne is won.
Our father now has left us,
From suffering passed away;
To join loved ones in heaven,
In the realms of endless day.
Forbear, dear wife, to mourn and weep,
Whilst swestly in the dust sleep;
And when you come my grave to see,
Prepare yourself to follow me.
But we will strive and daily pray
To meet thee in eternal day;
Prepare III time, make no delay
For was quickly called away.

Near snydersburg Nd, on January 4, 1897, Daniel
Utz, aged u years. 10 months and Is days.
Dear fathers gone forever
Like the happy childhood days,
And his loving voice shall never
In our homes be heard again.
Tears from our eyes are streaming,
And sorrow shades our brows;
Oh blame us not for weeping,
We have no father now.
Our dear father has left us,
Yes he's left this world of care;
But oh how we'll miss dear father
When we see his vacant chair.
Farewell, my wife, I'm gone,
I've crossed the river now;
Your home is sad and lonely
Without fathers word.
Farewell, my children, you are left
Without father now;
Place all your hope in Christ on earth
And we shall meet in heaven.

GOT WHAT THEY WANT
The Treasure Hunters Below
 Town.

The party Of treasure huLteIs below town, of whom reference was made in the PRosPECTUR, have undoubtedly found their treasure and left town. On the day of departure one of the party was particularly jryous nni in dulged in numerous "sp:ios," ard during a ,a!kative period dropped the remark that tt,y had secured what they came after. Further than this no information was volunteered, and the curiosity Oi any ioqniring mind not satisfied, for ou tLis suiject he held 8 religious secrecy and was as numb as an oyster. Thus the real object and amount of their fad will doubtless still remain a secret. Their visit and mysterious workings never aroused any other thaa a curi-us it. terest among our people and they were never disturbed or moleStCd in the carrying out of their researches. The supposition is that ia some man ner they got trace o! valuable cache, the result O. some successful robbery committed duriI tic flush days oi Tombstone, the parties who planted" dig it up.
