Nuestro bueno y hno amigo d.

con motive de la bnena suerte que

tos que es uno de los mas ricos
que han sido descpbiertos en- es-
tas tierras, ele uno de los prin-
cipales dueiios. El metal halla-
de es cobre, pero en- tan grandes
cantidades que Sc dice riyalizara
las minas de Clark IN Arizona. En-
un lugar ell cobre ha ensayado
tan alto como sese1ta por ciento.
Ell nuevo descubrimiento ha
atraido la atencion mas de 10 or
dinario debido al hecho que por
muchos amos ha prevalecido una
tradicion entire los habitantes
mas ancianos de Bernalillo. de
que habia una nina muy rica en-
la sierra no muy lejos del pue-
bio de Sandia. La leyenda dice
que hasta ell afio de 1880 los Espa-
noles ira bajaro uua nina mara
villosamente RIGA en- las montafias
no muy lejos del pueblo de San
dia, del lado oriente de dicha sic
IRA, y que ellos obligaron a los
Iudios, por la fuerza, q que traba-
jaran por ellos, y que despues de
la rebellion de los Indios EN- 1880,
cuando los Espafioles fueron obli-
gados a abandonar el pals, los
Iudios cubrieron la nina y desde
entonces han tenido buen cuida-
do de no permitir que nadie la
hallara. Los Iudios de ese pue-
bio han acostumbrado q mandar
todas las mafianas uuo del pue-
bio hacer una vista a la sierra,
y la gente que vive cerca de ALI

DECEIVE de la montana y luego sc
vuelve a su casa. Esto Sc ha he
cho cada un dia del afio. Si hay
algo de verdad en- esta leyenda,
es possible que las tan buscadas
minas han sido descubiertas de

calidad han sido halladas.
Algunos mineros PRACTICES que

REFORMATION
SERVICES

The anniversary of the Reformation
was celebrated at Trinity Lutheran
church Sunday. a sermon appro
pirate to the occasion was preached
by the Rev. L. d. Ulrich, pastor, in the
morning. 1t was founded upon Judges,
1th chapter, goth verse: And the
three companies blew the trumpets
and brake the pitchers and held the
lamps in their left hands and the
. trumpets in their right hands to blow
withal and they cried: The Sword
Of thcLord and of Gideon. ;"
The speaker drew picture of Israel
in the days of its bondage and COM
pared that people to the Christian
Church in the Middle Ages under
papal Rome. The Christian Church
IN all ages has been under bondage to
some extent The sermon wove in a
great deal of history about the time of
the middle ages showing how the peo-
pie were deprived of the privileges of
the Gospel and were made to dwell in
spiritual darkness.
The deliverance Of Israel was com
pared to the deliverance of the Church
from the Roman yoke The methods
employed in each case were similar
Gideon represented Luther and Glide
ons 300 soldiers Luther's co-laborers.
The torches and pitchers, the speaker
said, represented the Bible, which
then, as it were, was hidden under a
pile of rubbish. Our characters are
the lamps lighted by Gods grace and
shining for men, in the Christian war
fare; the trumpets are the mouths of
those who praise God, while the pitch
ers represent our capacity for receiv-
ing divine truth. The sword of Glide
on stands for the word of God; the cry
of Gideon for virtually the cry of
Luther: "The just shall live by
faith. -
Enlarging Rev. Ulrich declared that
it was through faith that Israel won
over the Midianites and through
faith that Luther won out against
Rome Thus God chose the foolish
things of the world to confound the
wise. Concluding he stated that when
great crises come God finds men for
the occasion. In support he cited the
case of Paul, Luther. Washington and
Lincoln.
The Reformation service last even
ing was continued by the Sunday
school of the church, which rendered
special service consisting of singing,
etc.

For Betterment of Guard,

A campaign for the betterment OF the
National Guards of Pennsylvania will
be inaugurated at the next session OF
the T,aoisIatrra. - Ti'V Military oVu0
is the official title of a circular issued
by General Robert Shaw Oliver, Act
ing Secretary of War, which abounds
in suggestions considered timely and
practicable by Guardsmen and which
provides for every matter that came
before the recent meeting of the Ma
tional Guard Association of Pennsyl-
vania held at Scranton.
sThe circular provides that the arm
ories for the use of the National
Guards shall be built by the State up
on ground to be furnished by the local
government. 1t advises the prohibition
of parades of unauthorized military
bodies, the protection of the uniform
of the National Guard and provides
for the calling out of separate military
organizations by the Government in
times of riot or other emergencies.
The code provides an annual allow
ance to commissioned officers of $50
and to mounted officers of $50 for uni.
forms.
A reduction in the number of aids
de-camp on the Governors staff is ad-
vised. 1t is suggested that three aids
shall be selected from the active ser
vice of the Guard and that not more
than six additional aids shall be the
personal appointments of the Cover
nor.

WILL BENEFIT
THE BOROUGH

In conversation Saturday with Pres
ident of Council Amos Vastine rep
resentative of the American was
] informed of very important improve
meut that the Reading Iron Company
has decided upon which will affect
the lower end of the borough.
Tie tract of unoccupied land known
as the meadow periodically over
! flowed and containing the channel of
! Mahoning creek, which is making ser
| ious inroads on the bank at West Nah
oning street until that thoroughfare is
no longer Of legal width, has for years
past proven a very difficult problem
! for the Borough Council. For the ben
eft Of mill employees who live i'll the
| lower end of the Borough it has been
urged that Chestnut street should be
opened mp to Northumberland street.
This seeming impracticable under eX-
isting conditions, to provide thorough
fare passable at all times President
| VaStine at meeting of Council some
time ago proposed that one of the can
al bridges soon to he displaced by
stone culverts be removed to Mahon-
ing Greek at point opposite the
Reading Iron Works.
In the turtherance of his plans Pres
ident Vastine during the last few
days paid a visit TO the Reading Iron
Company and there learned that in
carrying out its own general policy of
Improvement the company has dcCid-
ed to take hold Of the matter in way
which promises to remedy the evils
complained of and relieve the Borough
of all responsibility.
During the next decade or 50 all the
land lying between the present tip and
West Mahoning street will be needed
by the company as dumping ground
for its constantly accumulating Gin
der. OF no use at present., the area of
low ground when filled up and graded
with the level of West Mahoning street
might have practical value as build
ing lots.
one of the first things TO be done by
the company will be to straighten
Mahoniug Greek divertlng it from its
present bed whore it is encroaching
upon West MahoHing street into an
artificial channel cut along the base
of cinder tip. In connection with this
work trestling will be built across
the meadow on which the cindcI Will
be brought over to the south side
Thus not only will the creek in its
present torn be got rid of but in pro-
cess of time all that part of the mea-
dow will be filled up and reclaimed
Ii Will probably not be many years
before a row of dwellings will line
West Mahoning street at that point
and Chestnut street will be extended
across to Northumberland street

THE COMMERCIAL
TMEMNT

That the School Board made no mis-.
take in adding a Commercial Course
to the curriculum Of the High School
is most satisfactorily demonstrated
after short experiment Of two months.
. Although the work was necessarily
much handicapped for the want Of
space during the first month of school
yet the results are all that could be
desired.
! If any of the patrons of the High
/ School will take the trouble to visit
the Commercial department they will
/ be impressed with three thlngs-tho
( thoroughness and comprehonsivoness
of the work, the excellent discipline
and the interest in the studies mani
tested by the pupils 1t is true, it is
a sort of a novelty to hear the click Of
/ the typewriter and see the usual par
/ aphernalia of the business college in
/ the public school room. but the in
nOvation is made imperative by the
progress of the times in order to give
our boys and girls a practical educa-
tion that will fit them for the great
struggle of life upon which they are
so soon to enter.
Seventy-siX pupils have taken up the
Commercial Course. These at differ
ent periods of the day pass through
Professor Horner's hands, receiving a
thorough drill III business forms and
book keeping, short hand and type
writing, business correspondence. busi-
ness practice and banking Imitation
money is used and none of the details
of actual business are omitted. The
boys and girls take great pride in
their work. While the latter must be
accurate to degree to pass muster, it
is also as a rule neat and a model Of
painstaking care
Professor Horner impresSes one as
thoroughly master of the situation.
The introduction of the new depart
ment has not been permitted to de-
moralize the discipline in the least.
Nothing more could be desired on the
part of the school to reflect a proper
degree of confidence in the teacher
and respect for his authority.
The students of the course find the
typewriting drill especially exacting.
The "touch' method is employed and
no one is permitted to use the sight
for moment. Poor progress is made
at first, but the foundation must be
laid rightly and speed is not a factor
at the beginning of the course. In an
apartment alone four students at
time are kept at practice. AT the eX
piratiOn of forty minutes they are re-
lieved and the machines are occupied
by others. Thus it goes on during the
day until all the students in the SOph-
omore, Junior and Senior years have
had their periods of practice.
Danvillo by adopting the Commercl-
al Course has placed itself in the front
ranks of wideawako progressive towns
Shamokin is the nearest district that
has "A Commercial Course. Williams
port, Wilkosbarre, Scranton, Harris
burg, Reading, Norristown and York
are some of the other towns which
have adopted a Commercial Course.
