The Telluride, Durango and Do

the question of whether a lot of peo.
pie over there were sensibie or fool
ish for being ducked through the
ice into the river by Baptist
preacher. One claims they caught
religion, while others claim they
caught pneumonia. and the fight
wakes warm. Now, brethren, you
all keep still minute, while we
lead you in prayer. Some stones in
a great temple, are soft like sand
stone, and can be sawed and Clipped
easily; others are hard like granite
and must be worked with lohg and
hard to be polished. So with men
and religion. Some are carried a.
way by the beating of the Salvation
army drums; others are emotional
and get worked up over the exhor-
tations Of the Methodist revival;
Others have to study and think LONG
over the problem; and only stern
facts and logic will polish others.
So it is that still others are moulded
into shape by ceremonies such as
dipping them into river, OF plac-
ing before them craven images, but
all go I'd make UP the great temple
of the Lord, and the end justifies
the means. 1t takes all kinds of
people to make UP world, and it
takes all kinds Of methods to make
them see the great truth which you
may he able to study out in your

peries of wealth and the falsities of
social humbug to the uplifting of
the ideas and ideals of their poorer
sisters-by such practicalities as
cooking classes, nursing classes,
and classes in first aid to the injured
or the sick or the poisoned. 1t is
seen in the clearer understanding
that life given to the service of
the least of the little ones of the
great human family is not "lost,"
but is.simply part of the great de-
mand Of all upon all for the best of
all that our hands ard hearts and
souls can do. 1t is the spirit of the
New Lent that will make a lusty
fireman, with wife and children de-
pendant upon him, go fearlessly in
to denger and to death in order to
save frail invalid who would die
shortly under any circumstances.
1t is the New Lent that believes no
expenditure too great in order to
add a moments happiness to the
worlds afflicted ones.
**
n Nd WHAT ELSE? The New
q Lent pays less and ever less at
tcntion to foinis and ceremonie. and
more to the realities OF religion. It
makes increasingly less demand for
dehominational label on every
deed that is done. 1t confines our
understanding Of God less to the
leaves Of nian-wfitten revelations
and lets in our larger souls the mes
sages Of God that ale written in the
courses Of the stars, In the locks,
the plants, the beasts, the history Of

the old Lent Of outer raggedness
and snowy neglet of self, the old
Lent of abstention from earth's
pleasures, the return to them hav-
ing greater zest after forty days of
denial-is passing into the garret of
disuse and misused ideas. There
let it stay, together with other vague
interpretations of Gods will-like
the slaughtering of heretics, COM
pulsion in believing, Sabbath sour
ness, damnation of infants and all
sorts Of nian-made characteristics
that hide the great simple, centre
truth that Creator must love his
creatures.

MISSING VACANCIES.

Were Held by the Agent
for Charges.

a short time since quite discussion arose
among the officials of one oi our prominent
southern railroads as to the reason OF the
many yeNatIous delays and troubles in the
Transmission OF local freight. 1t was claimed
by some OF the parties interested that it was
caused almost entirely by the stupldity or
ineihciency OF the local agents, and as there
was some difference Of opinion on this point,
1t was decided that the matter should be
tested
To this end tracer was prepared in due
and formal shape, calling for the where
abouts oi "One beX Of Post holes" which il
alleged was missing from prior shipment
Thus was sent out in the regular order Of
business, with nothing except its internal
nothlngness' to draw attention TO its un.
usual character, and passed agent after
agent without elcitIHg comment or iuforma-
non save the stereotypcd Endorsement:
Not here"
Some 10 or IS local agents were actually
passed in this way, until the tracer fell
into the hands OF a bright Young .cl,ow
who was accustomed to looking into the
business passing through his hands, and
who speedily came to the conclusion that
the tracer had gone far enough At urv
rate the document went speedily back to
the general office with the following in
dorscment: Box Of Postholes, as per in.

hon at Savannah few days ago Judge
Hillyer, formerly on the superior court
bench, gave some startling figures upon
the increase of crime, urging the con-
iideration of the question upon the
church. He said that in the United
States there were more homicides than
in Scotland, England and Prussia In
1894 there were ., 900 homicides in the
United States and in 1896 there were
10000. In the past year more homi-
cides were committed in the United
States than men were killed in Cuba
and more than fell at Gettysburg or in
the Philippines.

IN FAVOR OF THE cENTAUR e.
Judge Adams Granted an InJunets..
in the Castoria Case,

In the United States Circuit Cour.
Tuesday afternoon Judge Adams hand :
ed down an opinion in the suit Of tha
Centaur Company, of New York CITY.
against Samuel w. Eslinger, Of 81
Louis, the suit being for an injunction
to restrain the defendant from usinr
the plaintiffs remedy, "Castoria."
1t was stated in complainant's bfn
that the Centaur Company, Of which
Charles II. Fletcher is president 10 tbs
sole manufacturer of "Castoria," and
alleged that the defendant had been
selling medicine in packages closely re-
sembling those of the New York Arm.
A preliminary injunction was prayed
for to restrain the defendants from in
any way pirating upon the complain
ants business. The bill averred that the
damages sustained were large, but
could not be estimated. The plea OF the
defendant was that he had right to do
as he had done.
Evidence in the case was taken by af-
| fdayits. Judge Adams, without leav-
ing the bench, delivered an opinion in
which he denounced imitators of we'll
| known medicines. He said the practice
was species of robbery and he would
grant the injunction sought.
The medicine "Castoria" was at first
protected by patent and later by label
and trade mark The plaintiff claimed
| that other decisions similar to the ono
handed down yesterday have been Sc
cured in the Federal courts, cases being
innumerable in Chicago, Indianapolis,
| District of Columbia, Texas and New
Jersey, in all of which the courts grant
ed injunctions.
The attorneys in this suit were Sed.
don aud Blair. of st. Louis, and F. H.
Scott, of Chicago, for the complain
ants and Michael Kineally for the de.
fendant. The preliminary injunction is
understood to settle the point of law
involved, but the question Of damages
will be adjudged when the case has its
final hearing.
The bottles of the original "Castoria"
manufactured by the Centaur Company
bear the facsimile signature of the pres
ident, Charles II. Fletcher, on the label,
while the bottles sold by the defendant
company bore on the label the words
"Pitcher's Baby Castoria." 1t is said
that criminal proceedings will follow,
and that several arrests may be made.

IT is the confident expectation OF
officers of the signal corps of the army
that within short time messages can
be sent to and from the war depart
ment at Washington to Fort Myer, five
miles away, without the aid of wires.
Important experiments have already
been made by Col. James Allen and
Lieut.. George o. Squire to transmit
messages by means of electric waves
produced in the manner required by
the Marconi system. and they have
found that at distance of 1000 yards
they can telegraph any message they
desire, and it is proposed to daily in
crease the distance.
