Robbed the Grave.

A startling incident of which Mr.. John
Oliver of Philadelphia, was the subject,

in q most dreadful condition. My skin
was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue

by the dwellers thereon, and that
they contain messages from that

Of an equation. We accept them upon

Of the future that mon have longed and
desired and hoped to know. That was
the meaning Of the Pagan OSsoles, from
whom the voices that came were heard
only to deceive. From beginning to
close the Bible bears upon it the distinc-
tive mark Of events which it foretells
should take place in the future. The de-
tails Of these predictions are mentioned;
and they have been fulfilled to the letter.
The Bible predicted minutely the birth of
Christ, giving time and place; Of His
character, and works. OF the manner Of
His death, of His burial, of His resurrec-
ton and His ascension into Heaven.
This was foretold centuries before any Of
them took place. And these predictions
occurred as f0retold.
OF the teachings of the Bible, DR.. Krum
said little need be said. They stand on
a plane by themselves far above those of
any book that has been given to the
world-above the teachings of the pur-
est of the philosophers or Of the found
ers of any of the religious systems.
Epitomised, they are like the character
of God Himself, who is the author, and
they were given to make human character
like that of God. God is holy, and His
word comes to us, ''Be ye holy, as am
holy" God is righteous and He de-
mands righteousness in the lives of men.
Gods attributes in business, love and
truth are enjoined. The word of God
makes man holier, more righteous, more
just, more tender and loving toward each
other. 1t makes them true to the word
they have spoken. 1t uplifts man and
raises him step by step higher in the
scale of being. 1t carries on: Its pur.
poses to save men and fit them for dwell
ing with God, so that Heaven, His abode,
is not tenantless dwelling place. No
other word does such work as this for
mortals. The doctor urgently spoke of
the moral and religious instruction in the
Bible that should be pursued by every
one, and receive it's eternal rewsrds,
which it assures them will be glory,
honor and Immortality.

BORDER SCENES.

ssBorder life" is theme our Eastern
ueighbors like to discuss; and whenever
an eastern correspondent visits our city
he picks up scraps of "reminiscences, and
puts them in glowing letters and vivid
pictures In the paper he represents. The
Herald gives two Illustrations Of scenes
in Mr.. Wright's "reminiscences. n. J.
lnnes,' of the Boston Herald, was In
Dodge City . few weeks, and furnishes
the Herald with "reminiscences Of life on
the plains, as given in an interview with
Il. NJ. Wright. Prefacing his interview.
the facts being familiar to the readers of
the GLOBE REPUBLICAN,, Mr.. Innes
writes:
Twenty odd years ago this was the
toughest town on the western frontier,
and man killing was an every night oc-
currence. The victims were usually
cowboys crazed with liquor. who ran up
against some ''bad man" gambler, the
sure shot sheriff or another cowboy
quicker with his 'sgun.' The remains Of
these misguided men were quite infor-
mally s.buried with their boots on" in .
trench dug in the famous Boot Hill ceme-
terry on the hill, no stone being set up to
mark the memory or identity OF the
corpse below.
Today Dodge City 10 almost - quiet as
the cemetery and has but one highly re-
spectacle prohibitory state 4iquor saloon.
Cattlemen and cowboys still como to
Dodge to sell steers, cows and k-a-a-v-s,
but they are entirely psaceabls, and
pleasant people to meet. Transportation
of stock by train from long distances has
eliminated the typical tough, piseol'shoot-
ing cowboy, who once drove thousands
of cattle hundreds of miles over the
Texas trail to this place.
There are many men here who can
tell thrilling tales Of those troublesome
times, but found much moro interesting
material in the talk Of an old-timer, Mr..
Robert NJ. Wright, who did his shooting
at Indians in the defense of his life and
property when this was but . government
outpos: and cowboys had all they could
do to keep their scalps. The Indian and
frontiers,nan are fast passing away and
soon there will be no one to tell 'from
real life'' stores of the adventurous days
along the border, doubly interesting be-
cause they are true and relate to real flesh
and blood. Mr.. Wright is now we'll
along in years and has retired from &C
tive business. His memory is good, and
he is not averse to talking of his pioneer
day experiences.

Grants Tribute to Mcpherson.

In his Campaigning With Grant" in
the Century, General Horace Porter
says: In the battle of the 22d General
Mcpherson was killed. When this news
reached General Grant he was visibly
affected, and dwelt upon it in his con-
versations for the next two or three
days. Mcpherson" he said, was one
of my earliest staff officers, and seemed
almost like one of my own family. At
Doneison, Shiloh, Vicksburg and Chat
tanooga he performed splendid service.
l predicted from the start that he
would make one of the most brilliant
officers in the service. I was very re-
luctant to have him leave my staff, for
1 disliked to lose his services there, but
l felt that it was only fair to him to
put him in command of troops where he
would be in line of more rapid promo
ton. l was very glad to have him at
the head of my old army of the Ten
nessee. His death will be a terrible
loss to Sherman, for l know that he
will feel ii as keenly as l. Mcpherson
was beloved by everybody in the serv-
ice, both by those above him and by
those below him.

Use of the SWin2.Back.

In arranging a camera for the pur-
pose of photographing a high building
1t IS often necessary to point the cam
era upward in order to include the
whole of the building in the picture In
doing this the back of the camera is
tilted at quite an angle, and if the plate
is exposed when the camera is in this
position the resulting picture will be
what is usually called a specimen of
drunken architectural photography,
for the lines are not vertical, but con-
verge in such way that the top of
the building appears narrower than the
bottom.
In taking pictures of buildings it is
better to have the lens a little above
the center of the plate, which is done
by moving the rising and falling front
By raising the lens above the center of
the plate it cuts off more of the fore
ground, and saves fitting the camera as
much as would be necessary if the lens
was in the center of the plate. If one
is taking pictures from a window. or
from a high position, the lens should be
brought little below the center of the
plate, thus avoiding too much sky in
the picture. Many of the hand cameras
are now fitted with a swing back and
rising and falling front.
The vertical swing, the movement of
the swing back sideways, is designed
to bring objects which are on different
planes-that is, at different distances
from each other-into the same focus.
Sometimes one side of a single object is
farther from the camera than an
other, and by swinging the camera a
little TO one side the whole of the OBJ
ject is brought into the same focus.
In copying pictures or in taking por-
traits the lens should be in the center
of the plate.-Harper's Round Table.

British Soldiers Clothes.

1t costs the British Government ST.
go, 900 annually for the clothing fur
nished to its army all over the world
Each of the foreign possessions, how
ever, has to pay back, to a certain eX-
tent. the amount which the uniforms of
the troops stationed or sent there has
cost, and this entails no end. of book
keeping. India pays for the clothing
of it's own troops, and also for the uni
forms of the men which England sends
there. The latter item is about $675,-
600 annually. On the other hand when
a regiment comes home from India
that country has to be paid back the
full value of the clothes it wears The
Government sells old and worn-out ar
ticles to the secondhand dealers, Who
by the way, usually accumulate for
tunes in a short time. The value of
cast-off clothes so disposed of is about
$4,000 yearly The best quality of
everything is used in the manufacture
of uniforms. In fact, it is said they
are too good for dura bic wear A huge
factory in Pimlico makes a large share
of the furnishings, but vast quantities
of foot and head gear are bought ready
made. Boots and leggings, for exam
pie, cost 81 165, 900 and head dresses
$3.50. 600 The thousands of miles of
flannel, calico, cloth, velvet, etc. the
millions of buttons, the tons of cotton
WOOL the billions of yards of sewing
cotton that are made into tunics, trou-
sers and shirts cost 81, 5U0, 900, and the
wages paid for making these up are
over So 900 a week. But all this vast
expense is much less than the annual
outlay that France or Germany makes
for keeping it's soldiers. In Germany
every man in the army has four COM
plete suits of military clothing.-Har-

THE TAVERN OF CASTLE CRAG

The Tavern of Castle Crag was built
in the heart of the Sierras, almost at
the foot of Mount Shasta, and amid
the most picturesque mountain scenery
accessible to the tourist. The eligibil-
ity of the place selected was due to
rare combination of flowing water, in
spring mountain scenery and inviting
forests.
The Tavern of Castle Crag, with It's
splendid environment, it was believed
would appeal chiefly to those who seek
a sumemr resort for health. recreation,
outdoor sports sympathy with nature
and informal sociability. To empha-
size this intention and signify the kind
of invitation extended, the name TAV-
ERN of Castle Crag was chosen.
To avoid all implication of sumptuous
accommodations or the tyranny of So
cial Journalism, and to realize this orig
inal conception, the management has
decided to make the Tavern of Castle
Crag distinctively a family resort; and
especially attractive to those to whom
health, recreation and sympathy with
nature are paramount considerations.
To this end rooms on the first and sec
ond floors of this splendid taxern with
board will be furnished at a monthly
rate of $50 a person; and rooms on the
third floor with board at monthly
rate of $50 person.
The accommodation of the Tavern
are first class in every particular It's
parlors and halls are elegant and spac-
ious. Its verandas are cool and invit-
ing, placing the guest always in the
presence of the most attractive noun
tain scenery to be enjoyed from the
balcony of any tavern in the world
The opportunity for outdoor sports
embraces hunting, fishing, riding, BIZ
cycling, walking on mountain paths
and driving on picturesque roads. The
Tavern is located Immediately on the
main trunk line of the California &,
Oregon Railroad, and is fourteen hours
ride from San Francisco, twelve hours
from Stockton, ten hours from Sacra-
mento, thirty hours from Los Angeles
and twenty-three hours from Portland
The Tavern of Castle Crag is reached
from San Francisco and Sacramento
without loss of time. The train leaves
San Francisco at : o'clock p. M. arriv-
ing early the following morning for
breakfast which is always ready upOn
the arrival of the train. Returning. the
train time affords equal accommoda-
ton Thus both in going and in COM
ing the comforts of the passenger and
the economy of his time have been
studied. In brief, the Tavern of Castle
Crag realizes to it's guests the perfect
ideal of that spring time in the high al
titudes of the Sierras which never be-
comes high summer, and is the com
Portable home of pleasing recreation
and restful repose.
