A MINISTER'S Mistake.

A city minister was recently handed a
notice to be read from his pulpit. Ac-
companying it was clipping from n
newspaper bearing upon the matter
The clergyman started to read the ex-
tract and found that it began: "Take
Kemp's Balsam, the best Cough Cure" I"
This was hardly what he had expected
and, after moments hesitation, he
turned it over, and found on the other
side the matter intended for the reading.

Modocs Dying OFF.

The ancient Modoc tribe has dsinded
to n members, mostly women and sick
or diseased children. The death Of q
Modoc brave lately, has left only 10 abs.
bodied warriors, who will probably
never go to war again. From the most
savage and indomitable OF fighters they
have lost all ambition for anything but
their government supplies, and, while
virtually prisoners OF war on a small
reservation, they are left unmatched
The spirit Of old days has gone, and
nobody will ever hear Of a story about
the last OF the Modocs. "-Yreka Jour

THEY NOW KNOW BETTER
"soiosists Have Of Late Discarded
the Old Notion About ola
sisi Movements.

Anew years ago geologists confident
ly asserted that at one period Of the
worlds history great ice cap came
moving down from the polar regions
and swept over North America MS far
south as latitude ss, carrying with it
great bowlders-which lie about ON
slopes and hilltops to this aay TO
prove it--and scratching the record of
It's movement upon cliffs and lodges.
Then this ice cap kindly melted and
disappeared This was taught In the
schools, and to doubt IL was heresy:
Tor science, when II takes up with n
theory, is doginatic, and all geologists
said; Behold. how wonderful is our
knowledge; what secrets we can
wrest from the pastl" After awhile
science rather gave up tho polar ice
cap theory and laid down new dog
ma-that of a single continental ice
sheet for North America.
The recent Investigations Of officers
OF the Canadian geological survey
prove that the scientists evolved their
glacial theory out OF vivid imapina-
tion. 1t has been found that in

ABOUT REFUNDlNG BONDS
Opinion Of Supreme Court 70 Be Given
Tomorrow.

To the Editor Of the State journal:
The law amendatory OF section /
of the refunding law that has been be-
fore the supreme court and the dec1-
sion of which will be announced to-
morrow was passed by the last legis-
lature. The bill amending the law was
drafted by the writer. The purpose of
the bill was to enable municipalities to
issue rafunding bonds in sufficient
amounts to purchase their outstanding
value.
When the bill was drafted it was
submitted to the attorney general, and
It's merits We're freely discussed. The
attorney general raised no objection
against the bill, while in fact he gave
it quasi endorsement.
The bill introduced in the house and
senate was explained IN detail to the
two committees, which reported Il for
passage
A contract was made with Chase
county to issue bonds for refunding
their Indebtedness under the provisions
Of the new law.
Before the bonds we're prepared and
printed the attorney general directed
one of his assistants to prepare an
opinion as TO the validity of the
amended law. The bonds were pre-
pared printed and executed upon the
information that the opinion of the
attorney generals Office would be IN
support of the law. The bonds in the
sum or $1VU,0UU were offered to the
school fund commission, and would
doubtless have been taken by the COM
mission at once, but the amount being
large the attorney general had some
hesitancy in the purchase of so large
an amount of bonds issued under and
by the provisions of a law that had
not at that time been passed upon or
sustained by the supreme court
At this hesitancy the writer proposed
to the attorney general that an agreed
case be made and submitted to the
supreme court for the purpose of OBJ
tanning the correct Interpretation of
the new law; 1t having been agreed
that the auditor of state should de-
cline to register the new bonds OF
Chase county, and upon such declina-
tion the case would be submitted. The
auditor was interviewed and agreed to
this arrangement, and the case was
made and submitted. the decision upon
which win be made known tomorrow.
The bank that held the old bonds
had from the outstart insisted upon a
decision of the supreme court affirm
Ing the law before 1t would surrender
for cancellation the valid bonds it held
as security for it's money. accepting in
lieu thereof bonds issued under an un-
tried law, which might CIR might not
prove to be valid. H B. KELLY.
