AKxoH.AG PREACHER.

They ask and answer some queer
questions in Kansas, For instance, a
preacher at Wellington announces that
he will deliver sermon on theme
suggested to him by the question of a
lawyer. The lawyer recited the case OF
a highly moral man, not a church men,
Der, who had been murdered by the
most vicious man in his community.
While in Jail awaiting trial the murder
er protested Christianity. The question
was: Did the moral man who was not
protesting Christian go to hell, and
did the man who murdered him and
was afterward converted go to heav-
emp" The preacher says he can show
that the murderer went to heaven, in
an argument that will bear the test of
legal analysis. He does not say that he
can show where the moral man went,
but he doubtless knows.
Perhaps this preacher can tell who is
responsible for the coal strike and
where they are going. He is evidently
knowing preacher.

THE JoHASNESHURG MINES

Mining isn't all profit, even where it
pared for Mr.. Chamberlain, by the en-
gineers of the Johannesburg Chamber
of Mines, reviews the mining history
of the place. Tt estimates the cost per
stamp at G4,7S7, and maintains that
although dividends have been paid for
fifteen years, 100000 more than has
yet been received as profits has been
expended. 1t estimates the expenditure
at e50,00O000 for projected develop
ment. With regard to deep levels, the
engineers contemplate working at a
depth of from 5000 feet to 10000 feet.
The average dividend per ton crushed
has been los. I'd. The war losses
amounted to about e125,000 per month,
and losses are still accruing owing to
the lack of labor. Ninety-four million
pounds worth of gold has been ex-
tracted up to date. At present 10000
white men are employed, earning on
an average 1883 year Where white
labor was employed in 1902, the cost of
production was Is 10d per ton higher,
The experiment Of white labor, says
the report, has proved unsatisfactory,
because the skilled white laborer has
been unsettled, fearing reduction in
pay, while the unskilled man has been
dissatisfied because he received lower
pay. AS a muscular machine, the best
developed native is equal to the white
man. 1t is hopeless, adds the report, to
dream of substituting muscular ma
chine, costing 20s. or even los. a. day,
for one costing 2s.2or Sd. With white la
| Dor, the average cost per ton would be
| increased by los. Id. Half of the mines
would be worked without profit, and
the remainder would have to reduce
their dividend by "a per cent.

recently returned from the Orient.
The Buddhists do not recognize
material god in any form and are
shocked at the American idea that they
worship an elephant. There is, how
ever, some approach to worship in their
reverence for white animals, particular
ly the elephant, monkey. dove, sparrow.
stork and swan. The reason Of this re-
Verence is that under the Buddhist
religion each successive Buddha is
supposed to have passed through a
series of transmigrations and in turn
occupied the forms of white animals Of
certain class The white elephant
ranks first because it is believed to be
the temporary dwelling place of the soul
of some great parsonage, a king or
great general.
The wisdom and knowledge Of this
great parsonage are supposed to be re-
tanned while in this state. and the ele-
plant therefore knows what is best for
those around it. Its presence thus pre-
vents national calamity and promotes
peace and prosperity. So it is CUSTOM
airy when a white elephant is found to
decorate it, bestow presents on it and
make it in every way favOrite of the
throne.
When an elephant Of this sort is dis
covered prayers are ordered in all the
temples, while the hunters go out to
capture it. The bearer of the message
announcing it's capture has his mouth
ears and nOstrils stuffed with gold, and
the one who first discovered it is libe-
rally rewarded. The elephant is re-
ceived with great ceremony on the way
to the capital, and a path is cut

tendants sing and dance, play musical
instruments and give exhibitions of
skill for the entertainment of the ele-
plant.

FED ON MOLASSES.

Economical, Palatable and Adapted to
Horses Which Work Hard and Have
to Eat Fast.
Between 1000 and 5000 horses in
Brooklyn are being fed on molasses be-
cause it is cheaper and better than oats.
This interesting and surprising state
ment was made by DR.. George H.
Berns, of the Berns Veterinary Hospi
tai in Adams street Brooklyn, at his
home, in Seventy-eighth street, near
Second avenue, Bay Ridge, last eve
ming to Tribune reporter:
I'VE are using molasses as a food for
horses very extensively said DR..
Berns, mot only in my own hospital
but in a number Of stables under our
care professionally. I find it most
| nutritious and digestible food for hard
| working draught animals.
Horses in harness from II to IA hours
day do not take time to masticate and
| properly. prepare dry oats and other
dry fodder, and the result is that the
most of it is expected from the body
| without having been digested or assimi-
lated: therefore, they receive but little
nutritive value from their food. Oats
must be converted into starch, and
starch must be converted into glucose
and sugar before they can possibly be
| digested and assimilated. AS our ami
mails, by reason Of fatigue from over
work and excessive hunger, do not take
| time properly to masticate and salivate
their food, it enters their stomachs in
an indigestible condition and causes
fermention, gastric disturbances and
COLES very frequently.
'Molasses, if properly diluted and
mixed with cut hay, bran and meal in
| proper proportions, is In a digestible
| condition and ready for assimilation
| the moment it enters the mouth. It's
nutritiVe value is, therefore, quite APP
| parent. It is not only a better and a
| more nutritious food than oats but is
much cheaper in the end.
| II have been feeding on molasses
| about 100 horses of Arbucles sugar re-
| f1nery for nearly two years past and
| have been feeding horses in my hospi-
| tai on molasses and have been con-
| tinually recommending it's use in many
| stables in Brooklyn during that period.
The cost is about 3S per cent less than
| the old system Of feeding"
DR.. Berns added that the proportions
| for an ordinary express wagon horse,
weighing LOO pounds, were one quart
of molasses and three quarts of water,
mixed with two quarts of cornmeal,
four quarts of bran and five pounds of
cut hay Of good quality. The cornmeal,
the bran and the hay were mixed, the
molasses and water were mixed, and
then the solids and the liquids were
mixed together. This mixture should
be fed to the horse three times day, If
| indoors, but If he is out during the day
he should be fed oats in the middle
of the day.
The doctor maintained that not only
| was molasses 80 per cent cheaper than
oats, but that it caused no digestive
disturbances, and that horses fed on
molasses would lay on flesh faster than
| when fed on oats,--New York Tribune
