returning today, but owing TO the
storm which makes travelling very
disagreeable, he will remain i'm the

Especial Correspondence,

Mammoth, April 30.-A topic of much
local interest and Importance to num-
Der of the large mining companies in
this vicinity. is the probability of the
further building of ]. y. Cunningham
railroad. At present this short, but
very remunerative system covers dis
tauce of one and one-half miles. or
possibly two miles, in its tortuous wind
ings. conveying ores from the Mann
moth mine to the Mammoth mill. The
particular rumor in effect IS that the
road will be continued around by the
Star Consolidated group ami from there
on 10 the Dragon Iron mine, incident
ally taking in such probable contribu-
tors as the Boss Tweed and Red Rose,
and if the projected road should be
built. since the grade would be an
easy and inexpensive one from the Iron
mine-a continuation could be made to
the Sunbeam and in passing, the
Martha Washington. Then too, since
the Northern Spy has been purchased
by Messrs. Loose and Knight, and will
most likely be worked extensively, the
ores could be hauled by the Sioux road
to the Star Consolidated, whereby
platform station could be easily put in.
In fact the proposition opens so many
plausible avenues that it is more than
likely that Mr.. Cunningham will give
it serious consideration At any event
a survey has been made. partly cover

the way the choppers and hewers are

When the head camp meets here in
August, 1900, it will feel proud of the
camps in this fair state of Utah, for
there will be not alone the officers and
delegates of this body, but the largest
crowd of visitors who have ever at

Everything is progressing nicely for
the ladies' night to be given by this

Due notice will be given to all. The
committee having in charge the last
entertainment was continued by the

Tiff ON THE KINGDOM OF GOD
DISCOURSE AT FIRST HETHO-
DIST CHURCH.
No Church Is the Kingdom of God
While Mankind Is In Ruins, It Is
Not All Ruins.

Rev DR.. T. c. Tiff, who has just re-
turned from trip in the east and south,
during which time he has spent consider
able time in several of the largest cities.
spoke yesterday morning to an unusually
large audience at the First Methodist
church, the audience listening with care
full attention to his sermon. Speaking
from the text, THE kingdom of God is
within you duke xvii, 2D. DR.. Iliff said,
III part:
The one great subject of which our
Lord conversed more than any other was
the kingdom of God. or the kingdom of
heaven. In his sermon on the mount, he
began his beatitudes by saying, Blessed
are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the
kingdom of heaven When he gave a
prayer to his disciples and to the world,
one of the petitions was, Thy kingdom
come. He enforced this saying by para
bic, which was his common mode of teach
ing. The kingdom of heaven is like unto
this, and like unto that-like the grain of
mustard seed, the least of all seeds; the
leaven put in the meal; the treasure in
the field, and the merchantmen seeking
goodly pearl
DIR. Tiff then proceeded to develop the
question, What is the kingdom of God?''
In general, ii has reference TO the univer-
sal reign of Christ 1t promises a time
when there shall be no misery, no sin, no
sorrow. but, as the great apostle says.
THE Kingdom of God is righteousness,
peace and joy in the Holy Ghost"
"One of Englands greatest writers, Mr..
Carlyle, some years ago said that the
religion of Christ is a religion of sorrow.
He certainly knew very little about it ex-
perimentally. 1t is a religion of hope. of
which the prophets and Christ himself
and the holy apostles wrote and spoke.
with some people the church seems to
be the kingdom of God Far be it from
me to speak lightly of the church or its
sacraments; but no church, by whomso-
ever organized, is the kingdom of God
The church is designed to aid, to help and
bless mankind and the world. But neither
your church nor mine is the kingdom of
God. The kingdom of God is within you
The speaker then proceeded to show
that the kingdom of God is within every
man; that while mankind is in ruins. it is
not all ruins; that there is something good
in every man. And this is not contrary
to the old doctrine of depravity.

The Ingot.
Development of this property is be-
ing carried on from two points. A tun-
mel is being run from near the railroad
track into the hill south, and every
thing looks encouraging.
Drifts are also being run from thu
bottom of the shaft, which is 440 feet
deep. 1t is expected that this will cut
the vein being worked in the Lulu,
which has been traced 500 feet from the
mouth of the tunnel, considerable over
half the distance to the line of the In
got. The drift is now in a body of
ore matter, but values are not yet sat
isfactory. Superintendent Edwards
has, however. all faith that it is only
question of work to show that the
ground contains large bodies of high
grade ore, and he'is probably in a bet
ter position to judge that matter than
any man in the camp.
Two properties north of Ophir can
yon will receive considerable attention
in the near future. They are the POGO
and the Ohio Bat. Both properties are
surrounded by ground which has very
encouraging showing, and a large vein
can be traced on the ground. 1t is
possible that a company will be or
ganiZed soon to develop the ground.
In the West Mercur shaft the vein
recently struck continues to grow in
size, and every effort is being made to
push work ahead. The vein was
reached at a depth of go feet and car
rieS fair values.
On the north the shaft on the S. n.
Moore is being sunk deeper, the pres
ent depth being $50 feet and the con-
tract being to go to formation. The
work is in charge of William Qualls.
On the east the work continues on
the Elkhorn, a contract having been
let to sink the shaft fifty feet further.
in which distance it is believed the vein
will be cut.
At the Sindar a depth of about 100
feet has been reached and the steam
hoist is now in operation. The vein
has increased so that both hanging
and foot-walls have disappeared. A
cToss-cut will be started in few days
to show the size of the vein. Values
have increased so rapidly of late that
it seems as if a very short time would
show up a strong vein carrying good
milling values.
