I'VE fail to find anything in this communica-
ton to change opinion. We still believe
that the appropriation of public money for a
library selected by church authorities of any
denomination whatever would be out of har-
mony with the principles on which our country
is founded. This fact would become apparent
to Roman Catholics also If Methodists, Jews
Episcopalians or other denominations made
claims for public funds with which to estab-
lfsh libraries. But none of these have lost faith
in the public officials who are charged with
the selection Of library material, and when they
have thov will turn the incompetents out ana
fill the o''ccs with good men. But they would
probably not apply for funds to establish Epls-
copal Baptist Jewish, Christian Science or any
other sectarian libraries, and if they did we
would onnose the measure, as would SINH
lar action on the part of the Roman Catholics.
1t would be opposition to principle, not to
sect creed or denomination

Defended His Sister from A Murder.
GUS Assault.

Leroy Freshman, aged 10 years, shot
and fatally wounded Henry Fraley, aged
SO years, during quarrel at Catoctin Fur
mace, Frederick county, Md, at $50
O. clock, p. m. March Is.
A number of young people, among whom
were Miss Freshman, a sister Of Leroy,
and Miss Fraley, daughter Of Henry
Fraley, were returning from service in the
Methodist Church, when the two young
women became involved in a quarrel and
fight about young man. The fight be-
came so animated that Miss Freshman S
father was sent for. He arrived in
highly excited state of mind, and seeing
his daughter getting the worst of the fight
picked up a fence paling and struck Miss
Freshman on the head, inficting slight
wound. Young Freshman, in retaliation,
fired his revolver at Fraley, shooting him
through the muscles of the left arm and
into the left breast. Surgeons summoned
to his aid found the bullet too closely i'm
bedded near the heart to remove it. The
ball also went through the left lung, caus-
ing internal hemorrhage.
Leroy Freshman was arrested and COM
mitted to the Frederick county Jail. He
said his sister Ella, who is % years old,
and Minnie Fraley, Is years of age, got
into fight and pulled each other all over
the road on their way home from church.
1--WE succeeded in separating them, he
said, ''when Mr.. Fraley, who had been
summoned by his young son, appeared on
the scene and, with an oath, struck my
sister on the head, knocking her senseless,
and remarking at the same time, 4 will
kill the d. Seeing the blood run
ming all over her from the wound he had
inflicted and as he raised the club to strike
me, drew out my 80 caliber Smith Y
Wcsson and fired at him. We were only
five feet apart, and as he dropped the club
| went to my sisters aid and helped her
home I didn't know until later that L
had hit him with the bullet.
Freshman is the main support of wild
owed mother and two sisters. He works
in the ore mines at the furnace. Fraley
is a farm hand and has 0 children. Late
tonight Fraley is still alive, but his physi-
clans say he cannot live.

offerings, found the nine thousand miles which he

Where Ophir Was.

Where was the Ophir from which Solo
mon cot his gold? 1t has been located at
various points in the East, where gold was
abundant between the Nile and the Red
sea. among the Mountains of the Moon and
other places. 1t must have been region
rich in the metal, since we read that David
contributed to the fund for the erection OF
the temple -, 900 talents of gold, of the
gold of Ophir, equivalent in our money,
says the Engineering and Mining Journal
to $50, 900, 900. Recent writer's contend
that Ophir is only an old form Of the word
Africa and that the gold came from that
part of Rhodesia where are found hundreds
of ruins of cities, fortresses and temples,
among workings still rich in gold and con-
tanning fragments of the crucibles and other
apparatus of the gold miner. These ruins
indicate that the first miners were from
Southern Arabia and carried on the indus
try 1900 or 1000 B. c., and were sue
ceeded about 1000 B. C. by the Pheni
clans, whose home cities were neighbors of
Jerusalem Some ancient invasion of Wig
orous savages destroyed, it appears, the
furnishing cities of the mining region and
Frustrated the mining industry, though the
Portuguese and natives kept alive the ira
dition of great kingdom that once -four
ished where the ruins are now seen.
DR.. Carl Peters finds near the Zambesi
river mountain named Fura. This name
the Portuguese got from Arabian traders,
who said it was identical with the Hebrew
Ophir, of which it was an abbreviation.
Attention is directed also to the fact that
the word Africa which the Romans took
over from the Carthaginians is modifica-
ton of Afur, OF Aufur From Ophir, it
is said, "Africa' is derived through Afr
and Afer, which in Latin commonly took
the form Africus. DIR. Peters does not,
however, rely wholly on his etymologies,
but cites the hundreds of rich gold diggings
he saw in Rhodesia, the ruins of cities,
terraced hills deliberately irrigated and pa
gan idols and symbols, together with the
references in Egyptian records to the peo
pie and products of this region. Many
evidences concur, DR.. Peters thinks, to
prove that Rhodesia was the Ell Dorado of
Solomon time and of the dozen preceding
centuries.
