After a soprano solo by Miss Lucy

There We're three other violin solos
by Jussie Rodriguez, Miss Edna Caryl

How the Oak VIII Grow.

There are trees which would seem to
substantiate the theory of some sci
entists that there is no reason why a
tree should ever die unless destroyed
by unfavorable conditions or accident.
The oak, for example, will live as a
sapling for ages until given opportu-
nifty for growth. There is an old say
ing to the effect that if pine forest is
cut down an oak forest will grow,
and this is said to be literally true.
Many of the acorns carried into the
pine woods by birds and squirrels are
left to sprOut In the ground. AS the
tiny saplings grow browsing natives
Of the forest shades nibble off their
tender leaves. Again and again new
leaves are put forth, only to serve as
food for hungry deer or moose or 9TH
er marauding creatures. And so, hid
den from sunlight, deprived, as 1t
would appear, of every essential of
life, the little plants live on, and when
at last the pines are felled and the sun
light reaches them they begin their era
of growth.

PRIESTS MAY MARRY.

1t is published in clerical news
paper of Berlin that news is received
via Rio Janeiro and Carlsrhue CON
tanning the text cf a papal encyclic-
al abolishing celibacy as require
ment for clergy in Latin America.
The Sonth American Bishops coun-
cll at Rome last spring petitioned
this indulgence. The encyclical was
published in South American news
papers July 10, although it was care
fully suppressed throughout Europe.
The encyclical states that inasmuch
as celibacy is church ordinance,
and not divine command, estab-
lished when candidates for the priest
hood we're numerous, and inasmuch
as the priestly calling in Latin Am
erica has fallen into disrepute and
many parishes are without pastors,
and inasmuch as celibacy is the main
reason why the youth are disincline d
to become priests in those countries
it seems advisable for those without
sufficient moral strength to choose a
worthier condition by marrying.

THE BIG CANAL.

Jan. z saw the waters of Lake
Michigan and the Chicago river
turned into the $33,000,000 drain
age canal, and thus the Great Lakes
are connected with the Gulf of Mex
leo. The canal will carry 100000
cubic feet of water per minute, and
drain the big city, without pollutine
the city water supply as in former
times.
Today Chicago is gulf port, by
employing the Illinois and Mississ-
ippi rivers. The canal is said to be
large enough to permit steamers Of
considerable draft to reach Chicago
from the Gulf, and the city now has
an all water route to the Atlantic by
way of the St. Lawrence as well as
by the Mississippi. St. Louis made
a fight against this canal, as it runs

by her door, although the drainage

LOCATING A CLAIM.

The time for doing and complet-
ing annual assessment work on un-
patented claims for the current year
having expired, it is in order to call
attention to some facts in the matter.
After one has discovered and located
mining claim he is given by law a
certain time to perfect his title to the
ground. One year from the first day
of January succeeding the date Of
location is allowed in which to per-
form the 800 worth of assessment
work. A man who thinks anything
of his location will generally get on
a business move and work out the
assessment, but if he does not, the
failure itself does not invalidate his
location, but if another relocates or
jumps the ground, the rights of the
first locator Immediately cease.
But the original locator may save
his claim, though he has failed tc
perform his annual labor upon it
and that is by carrying on work up
on it before anyone else can claim
the ground by relocation. The hol-
Inp a
diligence to complete it before re.
location can obtain footing upon it
A locator who has allowed his claim
to become the prey of the jumper
cannot save it by relocation, for thus
he might hold the ground indefinite
ly. This would manifestly be un-
fair to other mining men who might
desire to make permanent improve.
ments upon it.
Of course the law does not limit
the number of locations man may
make. He may hold them all provi
ded he comply with the law. But a
single individual cannot locate and
control large number of claims in
any one district and hold them to
the exclusion of others without per-
forming the necessary work upon
thom. 1t also follows that no one
of several locators can gain the en-
tire title to all the ground by reason
of the failure of any or one of them
to fulfil the laws requirements. Ev-
cry location must stand upon It's OWE
bottom, every locator must comply
with the law governing his location
No man can evade it by subterfuge
or trickery. Let that be understood
all citizens are equal before the law

A COTTON PLANT.
The story of One shown on the New
York Exchange.

The story of One shown on the New
York Exchange.
There Is a story still told to visitors
to the New York Cotton Exchange
which always amuses its tellers quite
as much as it's hearers. 1t concerns a
very superb specimen of the cotton
plant which was brought into the eX-
change one October morning years ago
and placed in the center of the pit
around which gather every day the
men who buy and sell millions of bales
of the white staple every month.
There had been bad weather in Tex
as that season, with reports of irrep-
arabic damage to the crop, but this
superb plant, laden with bolls through
out It's six feet of height and coming,
as it did, from Waco, in the most i'm
portant cotton section of the Lone Star
State, was exhibited as conclusive
proof that the stories of ruined crop
were certainly false. All New York s
big cotton operators came to look at
remained to sell few thousand bales.
''If that is what Waco can produce" !"
they said, "the Texas crop alone will
be big enough to put cotton down n
cent or two per pound"
Late in the day, however, there
strolled into the exchange a shrewd
old farmer from one of the cotton
states east of the Mississippi. He had
heard of six foot cotton plants from
Texas, and he wanted to see one. A
single look at this specimen was sufIi-
cient.
"Humbug," he said. "That plant is
made of wax, and it grew in South
Fifth avenue"
And so it proved. The hoax had
demonstrated what its authors assert
ed, that very few people in New York,
even among cotton brokers, would
know cotton plant if they saw one.-
