ored fellows. The prayer meeting is
dying from natural causes. The prayer
meeting is a failure because it is not
educative, does not appeal to mems So
cial natures and accomplishes nothing
tangible and practical. The prayer
meeting, as it now exists, is relic OF
time when the negative and dreamy
side of mems natures predominated in
their religion"

Even the bank of England cannot show
anything like it. Situated somewhat
lower than the sidewalk, the vault is
about as large as a good-sized dining
room, having frontage Of 20 feet and
depth of 20 feet 1t is IL feet high
The floor rests on platform of steel
rails. Like the sides and top, it is six
and quarter inches thick of chrome
steel plates tempered to almost dia-
mond hardness. The compartment is
brilliantly lighted at all times, and the
treasure chest is free from contact with
the top and sides. With the floor there
is contact at four points only. This is
furnished by solid masonry piers built
on bedrock.
These piers raise the great chest six
feet six inches from the floor to the
level of narrow platform reaching all
around the apartment, but separated
by quite space from the box itself.
The watchmen who guard the treasure
chest day and night may walk under
1t at will. This makes robbery by tun-
neling quite out OF the question. An
additional safeguard is furnished by
a grating, or grill, Of two-inch steel
bars, which reach from floor to ceiling,
making it impossible for anybody to
get within four o. five feet OF the chest
without unlocking the doors of the
grill.
The stronghold can be opened only
in the presence Of two sets of officials,
one from the clearing house and one
from the associated banks which own
the gold. Each official uses a separate
combination both on the grating doors
and on the chest. After the folding
doors, weighing ten tons, have been
manipulated, there are several small
steel chests TO be unlocked before the
gold is accessible. The machinery OF
this treasure chest is as delicate as
a watch, and is one of the finest pieces
of mechanism of it's kind In the world.

BoTNA, Iowa,

ED. DEMONSTRATING that your
readers would be interested in anything
to the success of the graduates of Deni-
son schools, 1 send you the following
item for publication.
Mr.. Ray Randall, of Denison, who
graduated from Denison High School
one year ago, has for the past seven
months last past been employed as
teacher in sub district No, l, jefferson
township Shelby county; this long
term which has just closed being his
first experience in teaching.
Mr.. Randall has given entire salts
faction as teacher and during his stay
among us has won the confidence and
esteem of the whole community.
As manifestation of their regard for
Mr.. Randall the young ladies of the
community organized a mammoth sur
Fprise party to which We're invited the
young gentlemen of the neighborhood
and the pupils and patrons of Mr.. Ran.
dall's school. Ats o'clock p m June l,
1901, the party assembled at the resi-
dence of D. S. Irwin where Mr. Ran
dali has made his home during his stay
with us. A team was sent for Mr. R.
who had been wilfully decoyed from
home and he was brought back to con
front some seven score of his pupils and
friends who had assembled on the big
lawn.
After the young people had enjoyed
themselves for three hours as only
healthy young people can a. an outdoor
gathering and just as the ladies had
finished piling the good cheer that they
had brought on the mammoth table, the
young gentlemen of the party and the
pupils OF Mr.. R. S school proceeded to
render short but well arranged liter
airy program which they had gotten up
as their contribution to the evenings
entertainment, and by way of counter
surprise to the young ladies, which pro-
gram they closed by presenting to Nh.
r beautiful gold watch, the presenta.
ton address including a farewell adj
dress to Mr.. Randall as teacher, being
delivered in very appropriate and touch
ing words by Lylian Irwin, one of the
ten year old pupils of MI. Rs. school.
This manifestation of esteem partici-
pated in by so many cannot fail ! to be
gratifying to Mr.. Randalls friends at
Denison, and to one of his appreciative
nature, it cannot fail to be an inspira-
ton. Whatever the future may hold
for him he will cherish the evening of
June LIST in his memory and his heart
as the occasion when at the very com
|mencement of his career his friends
were gathered round him bidding him
God speed and prophesying his success,
and the memory will stimulate his am
bition and urge him on to efforts that
will realize the hopes of his friends for
him, and fulfil their prophesies
