The school. which is an adjunct OF the

which rise in some places 20, ,o00 feet,

The boys devote six hours of the day 70
schooling. twohourso on thefarm ando half
hour TO the housework. They come of very
illiterate parents, but under the careful
training furnished them by the school they
almost without exception develop into
bright, energetic young men. They become
very particular about their personal ap-
pearance, which is peculiar, considering
the condition of their homes and dress be-
fore they enter the school.
THE school is supported by scholarships,

"EvOLUTIoN OF MAN"
Mr.. Coffin Discusses 1t From
TheosophicaI Standpoint.

Theosophical Standpoint.
Mr.. George NJ Coffin lectured last night
at Mctzerott's Hall, No. 1110 street, on
the Evolution of Man; Theosophical
View" Mr. Coffin opened by contrasting
the narrow, bigoted, orthodox view of
mans corrupt, sinful, and helpless nature
with the magnificent deineation Of his
Giyine essence and Immortality portra yed
III the Bhagayad Gita, from which he
read passages.
For the many suicides, murders, and
other crimes OF the present day, the
orthodox teachings are largely responsible,
for the church in 553 a. d. killed out OF
mems minds the belief in the pre-existence
of the soul held and taught by the early
Christian fathers, and by this means his
belief In eternal life. AT the same time
mans belief in his own responsibiit ty
for his thoughts and deeds was murdered
by the dogma of Jesus divinity and his
vicarious atonement.
Mans life is in his consciousness, which
is but d small center of the Supreme
Spirit which guides and creates tie uni
verse, and as that consciousness is eternal
ir essence, mans life is also eternal or
l1lnlOrtal, anu MS eNoiuOtoD coiSisoS III I'fe
expansion of the area OF his consciousness
on its various planes. The goal of his
present progress is to become master,
or elder brother Of the race, like Jesus,
Buddha, and other divine men, but the
only way to this goal is the one they trod
and that Is q life devoted to the uplifting
OF humanity from its SORROWS and suffer-
ing, and this work could be done only by
every man, woman, and child who wills
to be savior"

That is to say, congress presented

The Republican platform says:
We declare our opposition to all

trusts or otherwise. to control arhi-
trsrly the condition OF trade among
our citizens. And the first act OF
the administration and the congress
elected upon that plank is to give

That Is the prosperity which Is

Of trusts. Surely Senator Teller. who

There Is a funny case OF interna-
tional honesty down in Arizona, Just
on the line between that territory
and Mexico, says the Washington
Times. A Yankee farmer lives there.
one Amssa Barrow by name, and it is
his business to raise chickens.
Chicken feed Is cheap in Mexico and
chickens bring fine prices IN Arizona.
but to raise fowls Ill Mexico and
bring them across the boundary. or
to buy the feed and bring it across
would involve the pa! ment 81 a con
siderable duty. which would eat the
profits about as fast as the heus
could eat the corn. AS for SNUG
Cling. that WAS not TO be thought OF.
Amasa il a Yankee. and he Is So
honest that his neighbors cay he
wouldn't take advantage OF d man in
a horse trade. But he 10 also full Of
Yankee ingenuity, and after deep
cogitatioD he built a long, slim hen
coop, one.half Of it in Arizona and
the other in Mexico. On the line
there Is a gate. Over the line there
are harms containing feed. At feed
ing time tile gate is opened, and the
ch cken iancier shoocs his flock 20
Mexico. where they ear their meal.
TheI. he shooes them back to the pro.
lection OF tie American flag. where
they digest their Mexican grain, lay
their eggs, and carry on their family
affairs. Mr.. Barrow saves about 30
per cent OIL his grPin and makes
about that much on his chickens.
and il there il any smuggling done it
is done by the innocent and irrespon-
sible chickens.
