The work out at the Avery Salt
Mines is going on rapidly, Mr.. Run
do, the Superintendent, on We'd
nesday last told an IBERIAN repor-
ter that the two principal tunnels
are now 200 feet long each and that
fourOther tunnels had been started
40 feet long. The daily output
now is Is cars, even though this is
the dull season. The business sea
son will begin in September and
orders for 500 cars to be delivered
during that month have been
booked.
This mine is now taking trade
from the Virginia evaporated salt,
and sending our salt into entirely
new territories. Much of this now
goes into Georgia, Alabama, and
other southern states, to Chicago,
Iowa etc. The salt of southwest
Louisiana may yet become one of
our greatest industries.

Mr.. r. G. Sealey gave us the 1ol-
lowing account Of an accident to
Mr.. James Pollard, which happened
on Monday last at about 2:3o
o'clock y. IN. Mr.. Pollard was re-
turning from Morgan City on that
day. and as the west bound train
slowed up in going through New
iberia, he jumped off just west OF
Julia street and was walking back
to that street, when the locomotive
Of the east bound train struck him,
throwing him off the track. Mr.
sealey declares that the train
which struck Mr.. Pollard neither
whistled nor rang. bell, and that
as the west bound train was max
ing a good deal of noise, he did
not hear the approach OF the tran
which struck him. Fortunately ht
was not greatly injured and, Is,
with the exception of the shock
and bruises, doing quite well. We
would advise persons to be very
careful how they Cross or walk OF

Copper Production.

The growth Of copper production
in the century has been very rapid,
being in the first decade $1,000
tons, in the fifth 29l, 900 tons, and
in the tenth decade, which ends
with 1900, 3,s43, 900 tons, of which
1868, 900 tons is supplied by North
America, the large proportion of
this being from the United States.
The rapid extension of the railroad
system in Mexico is. resulting in the
opening OF some Very extensive cop
per mines ID that country; the rich
ness of the orss, which as rule,
carry gold and silver. together with
the abundance 0f vert cheap labor
and the climatic advantages will
tend to greatly increaae the North
American production. tOne of the
largest copper mining senterprises
in the world is new being started
by the Rothchilds, who have invest
ed IS, 100000 therein. This great
property is III the etate OF Mlchoa-
can, and In the same mineral belt a.
are the FL progreso Mines that are
advertised IN this issue. The main
spring Of the wonderful increase of
the worlds production of copper is,
of course, the great profit that re-
suits from mining it, and at the
present time no better investment
Is offered than the stock of a good
copper mining company in the initial
stages and before dividend Is paid.

Bankers, manufacturers, merchants,
and people engaged in all kinds of le-
climate business or labor are gaining
a dominion over their affairs which to
them is more wonderful than the heal
ing Of the sick, and which cannot be
comprehended by any one who is not
to some extent familiar with the limit
less possibilities of divinely bestowed,
intelligence.
In arecenta dadress Bishop Morrison
saida@that although not endorsing
Christian Science, he thought that one
Of the reasons for the rapid growth of
| our denomination was our. insistent
| recognition Of God. In this he was
| right. Christian Science so reveals
| the nature of God that we are learning
to turn to Him in every hour and cir
cumstance of our need.
1 know that if any one had told me
fifteen years ago that / could be heal

would have thought it the most far
fetched proposition that could have
assailed my ears, but this was because
I had been educated to believe thatH He
was a God of wrath who had instituted
sickness, and who had perhaps arrang-
for my own damnation.
Now we are learning that God, who
is the. intelligent basis, source, origin,
and creating cause of all that has
actual existence, has ordained for
man nothing but health, holiness, per-
lection and life.
We are learning that humanity is

but because it is involved in the vio-
