A body OF earnest Christian men,
known as the Council Of Seventy. have
put forth a document calling for q
national convention to be held In one
or more OF the largest churches OF
Chicago, February 10 and IL, 1903
The object OF this convention is to
effect a national organization for the
improvement OF the religious and
moral education, through the Sunday
school and other agencies. The pres
ent situation is outlined as follows:
II has become increasingly cleaI
that the instruction Of the young In
religion and morality, which is given
in the Sunday school, the home, and
by other means, is inadequate to the
present need and is not wholly in &C,
cord with the best present knowledge
The gradual retirement Of the Bible
from the common schools has de.
creased the amount VI moral and relI
gious instruction whirh The. children
receive. The Sunday school is in es
sential respects falling to do It's full
duty, and only a comparatively small
proportion OF the childrca of the coun
try come under its influence for any
length OF time. The bono training oil

Colonel Ochiltree Dided His Tfne
and Carried on the Honors.
General Grant was q great admirer
Of Colonel Thomas Ochiltree and made
many of the men Of Galveston a bit
Jealous. As a result they once planned
an incident whereby they would hui
initiate Ochlltree. Grant was to stop
at Galveston after his trip to South
America, and the committee did not
put Ochiltree's name on the list Of dis
tinguished men to meet him.
Ochlltree bided his time, as he was
never known to complain, and did not
go to the ship to welcome General
Grant. He took a vantage point in the
crowd that filed the streets In front Of
the fremont House. He was behind
two rows of celebrities who were doing
guard duty along the edges OF n GRIM
o carpet which ran from the hotel
steps to the curb. The reception com
mittee. or part Of II, was standing In
the hotel door. waiting to give the gen.
eral the gladstone hand.
Ochiltree watched until the general
and Mrs. Grant had stepped from the
carriage. and then he bulged through
the line. He rushed down the crimson
carpet, shook heartily the hand of his
old friend and, Offering his arm to
Mrs. Grant, marched proudly through
the rank and f1le of the leading citizens
into the hotel. The mob outside de.
manded a speech from the general,
and, constituting himself a committee
Of one, Colonel Ochiltree appeared with

The development work so far done
in the Kendall mine has exposed an
enormous body OF ore. There Is now
blocked out ready for extraction. at
least one million tons of ore. As. stat
ed shove this Is an estimate by the su-
perintendent. In referring to the early
development work done In the mine
that official states that 200, 900 tons of
ore was exposed at o cost of about
$1,000. The work consists of running
a tunnel into the ore and making a
few c~rosscuts. Such rich results from
that amount of cost has never before
been equaled in mining. The same
authority as quoted above declares the
ore in sight in the Kendall mine will
undoubtedly assay IS per ton. With
the present capacity of the mill-3O0
tons per day-it will require many
years to exhause the visible supply of
ore In the mine. But as fast az the
ore is excavated new bodies are open
ed up to take Its place; and there are
no signs Of working the mine out.
At the present time there are some
5000 tons Of r broken down in the
mine and held as q reserve for bad
weather or other contingency. The
supply for the mill Ia taken from a
number of Joints in the mine. The
weather 30 70. this winter has not SER
fously interfered with ore extraction
from the open cuts. Wet ore cannot
be run through the mill, SO 1t is es-
.sential that there be, during the winter
weather season. a reserve Of dry ore to
draw from.
To supply timbers for the Kendall
Is In itself no small iter6. To keep
up to. the demand the COMPANY. en-.
.ploys a large force on that work. At
present the supply on hand equals
100000 feet. M nrg Nnor
Each ton of ore taken from the
mine leaves q considerable hole. For
instance. the extraction of 800 tons-a
days run-leayes q space measuring
10x10x30 feet. So much for statistics
concerning the mine. Everything
about the mill is working in good or
der. The ~ponderous new crusher is
running all right and the water and
electric plants r giving full satisfac-
ton. In referring to water. It may be
added that 1t requires ON an average.

1t is reliably reported that William
Maynard has made a good strike on
his claim in Ruby Gulch. While Mr..
Maynard refuses to state how much
his ore assayed he admitted that It is
over $40. Neither would he state how
much he has in sight. Others work
ing in Ruby Gulch are finding ore
which runs from $3.50 to $500.
It Is rumored that the Whiskey
Gulch mill is to be started up again in
the immediate future, the compiled
tions which caused 1t to be shut down
having about all been settled.
