lands, ruling against the claims of the re-
ligious orders. The heads of the orders
claimed that the money received from the
lands should be the property Of the orders
which would have the right to use it for
their own benefit and in such parts of the
world as they saw fit. 1t was seen that
If the money were to be taken from the

the money, when received, be deposited in
an American bank. to be used only in the
Philippines at the discretion of Archbishop
Harry and Bishops Rocker and Hendrick.
The heads Of the orders in Rome are said
to feel keenly the defeat they have met,
but the new bishops rejoice at the pros
pect of early support for the work they
plan to do for the Catholic Church in the
islands.
Presbyterians North are planning an
evangelistic campaign among the immi-
grants coming to the country. The matter
was discussed at the General Assembly
last May and that body instructed the
Board of Home Missions and the self-sup-
porting synods to cooperate in plans to
reach these foreigners with the gospel. A
conference was held this week at the head
quarters of the board in New York. which
was attended by the official representatives
of the synods Of Baltimore, Illinois. In
diana, Iowa, Michigan. New Jersey, New
York. Ohio. Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.
Representative workers of the Syrian. Ital-
ian, Bohemian, German and Hungarian
races also were present, by invitation, to
outline the needs and suggest means
whereby they may be met. The conference
was in session two days and decided to
inaugurate an aggressive movement to
reach the foreigners coming to America in
millions. Detailed plans have not been an
nounced, but 1T is the hope of Presbyterian
citizens may be enlisted in the work, for,
as pointed out in the conference, evangel-
ization means good citizenship.

influence of Army Posts.
Nashville American.

1t should be the policy of the government
to place army posts at as many points in
the country as possible, as there is no bet
ter way of giving the people a continued
personal interest in the army, and in this
way making them feel that il is part and
parcel of them and not separate and dis
tinct, something they seldom see and do not
understand, as is now very frequently felt
to be the case. The reflex action of this
interest Of the people I'm the army would.
too, have a beneficial effect on the army
and officers and men would have a kinder
feeling and more direct interest In civil af-
fairs and in the industrial progress of the
Nation. 1t certainly Is not well to set
. mem apart anu Keep them away s, from the
toll and anxiety of those by whose efforts
the army is maintained In this way the
sentiment would be mutual, people would
learn to appreciate more the value of the
army i'm time of peace as we'll as war and
officers and men would learn to better ap-
preciate and know their fellow-citizens.

Country Grayeyards.

Alas the graveyards, on the way!
With lettered headstones. old and gray,
Telling the oft-admitted tale
We know too well the truth they tell
That time is short. and flesh is frail.
Telling when youths bright day-star set
When dark old age grew darker yet;
W hen housewives lett the wheel and loom
When rose-cheeked maidcrs lost their bloom;
When the old doctor, worn and tired
With others Ills laid By his pills,
And took his last and slowest ride;
When the quaint deacon silent lay
Where he wont sing and pray.
When slow from some death-chiiled abode,
The wagons ratified down the road,
Came TO the little church. and there
Halted for sermon. hymn and prs YER
Then bearers. with uncovered head,
Bore the sound sleeper to his bed.

last night Gal was a Hungarian employe
who assisted about the furnace Near the
furnace proper is a vat forty feet deep
and thirty feet In diameter into which hot
Stag is run to cool. The hot Stag causes

ATHENA, FEBRUARY 20, 1870"
SCOTT AS A JOKE.

For the past two years IL. w, Scott
has been considered in the light Of pos
sibility senatorial candidate. He has
been nominated by many newspapers OF
the state, both republican and demo-
cratic, and he has in turn been unmerci-
fully 'roasted" and cuffed about by
newspapers of the state, both republi.
can and democratic. The latest "roast"
is the following from the American
Economist, the protective organ of the
republican party:
"H. W. Scott, editor of the Portland
Oregonian, is candidate for election to
the United States senate by the votes of
the republican majority in the Oregon
legislature. There is, we believe, no
prospect Of his election. He is so far
from being republican that at a dis
tance his candidacy seems like joke.
No man in Oregon has done more harm
to the cause of republicanism in that
state than this same Scott. Editor of the
leading newspaper of Oregon, it has
been in his power to betray the party
and knife its nominees. He has most
industriously exercised that power. In
spite Of Scott and the Oregonian, Oregon
has been held in the republican column.
The earnest, devoted men who direct
the republican newspapers of the state
outside of the Oregonian have worked
hard to contract the baleful efforts of
Scott's treachery and mendacity, and
they have succeeded. These men may
be depended upon to take care Of Scott's
senatorial ambition. He does not de-
serve a single republican vote. He
should look to the other side, the side
which he has always helped, for recog-
milton and reward"
The Economist is published in New
York City, and in the main is supported
by Wall street financiers, though it has
general circulation throughout the
United States. Being published solely
in the interests of hide bound protect
ionists and seeing the kernel OF good in
nothing save strict protective policy
in everything and trust corporations in
particular, it is naturally to be expected
that it would "cold deck" the great
editor of the Oregonian. Scott is known
to be liberal in his protective views,
and for this reason the Economist gives
him the merry jingle and terms his can
didacy a joke. We have yet to see
where Scott has made an announcement
of his candidacy, although he is evident
ly IN the hands of his friends and prob.
ably would not be averse to an accept
.ance of the senatorial toga should it
come to him in the proper manner.
With every waning day of the Legislative
session the prospects of the election OF a
dark horse become brighter. Why not
Scott? He towers head and shoulers
above those now in the contest, both in
point OF intellect and ability in state
craft His perceptive powers are un.
equalled, a qualification necessary for
representation of constituency in the
United States senate above all other re-
.quirements. Scott, in spite of all the
vituperation and malice-guided news
paper attacks, is today the strongest
man the republican party of Oregon has
in its ranks. And, yet, in event OF his
I election, which is far from unlikely, his

COWBOYS CAPTURE RED DEER.
Anne rican WHsterners Find Them
Harder to Catch with LassOs
Than wild Horses.

Two Of Buffalo Iill's cowboys, now
performing at the Olympia, London,
Tom Webb and 81 Compton, had what
they called tre best days sport they
ever had in their lives on the grounds
of Loudwater house, the residence OF
Panmure Gordon, at Rickmapsworth,
recently. They were invited to las
500 a herd of red deer, and found
them trickier to capture than wild
horses, but after a determined con-
test the cowboys were victors.
The chase ranged over 12-acre
field fringed with woods, cut of
which the deer were driven by beat
ers, whose attempts at capture they
had hitherto defied. First came fine
stag, which seemed the leader. He
eyed the cowboys with an air of de-
fiance and contempt. The coils OF
rope Kissed through the air and fell
around the legs of the stag, but be-
fore the loops could be drawn taut
the animal bounded five feet into the
mir. Several times the cowboys failed
but eventually coil fell round the
stays antlers.
With another, which had no antlers,
capture was more difficult. After two
had been taken. prisoners, the deer pe'
ran to practice sly tactics. Ihey
watched for the rise of the cowboys
arm, and jumped high in the air whi.e
the lasso fell harmlessly below them

WAKES, THEN DIES.
Woman Who Has Slept Since May n,
1883, Passes Away Near Saint
Quentin, France.

Marguerite Boyenval, of Thenelles,
near Saint Quentin, France, who had
been in a cataleptic state since May
81, 1888, was awakened the other day
and died the next morning. For
some time she has been suffering
from phthisis. and it is believed that
the effect of this malady on her sys-
tenn conduced to her reawakening.
She moved her hand six DAYS be-
fore her death for the first time and
groaned slightly. When DIR. Charlier
took hold of her arm she said: "You
are pinching me-" and subsequently,
replied to questions by "Yes" and
"No." She was. however, in state
of great weakness, and gradually
sank, finally dying.
Marguerite Boyenvars lethargy
was caused by fright. She had had
child, which died shortly after its
birth under circumstances which led
to the opening of a judicial investi
cation. One day in May, 1888, while
Marguerite was ironing, a nei-hbor
said to her: "The gendarmes are
coming to arrest you" Marguerite
had series of fits and gradually fell
into her long slumber.

A BIG SALT YEAR.
More of the Article Produced IL
United States Last Year Than
Ever Before.

The reports to the United States
geological survey for 1902 on the
production of salt. arsenic ana br'o'
mine in the. United States, by Dr..
Joseph Struthers. are now in press
and will soon be issued.
The production of salt in 1902
amounted to 23,S49,221 barrels-the
largest quantity yet recorded for any
one year-vaued at $5,66s, 636, as com
pared with 2e556,661 barrels, valued
at $6,617, 449, in 1901, and with 20,s69,-
342 barrels, valued at $6,944, 6o3, in
1900. The chief producing states are
New York 1858 per cent?, Michigan
(34.1 per cent?, Kansas (9.1 per
cent?, and Ohio $50 per cent?. The
domestic consumption in 1902 was
25,132,57 barrels, as compared with
not quite 22,0O0,000 barrels in 1901
and with about 22,24o,OOo barrels in
1900. The worlds production of salt
in 1901 was Valued at $45, ,G72, as
compared with 2,456,5 93 in 1900.
The production of arsenious oxide
(white arsenic) during 1902 was 1853
short tons, as compared with 300 tons
in 1901, when the Puget Sound Re-
duction company began the manu-
facture of this important substance
at Everett, Washington. The i'm
ports of arsenic in 1902 amounted to
S,11O,S9S pounds, valued at $2s0,055.
as compared with $685. 6S pounds,
valued at $316,525 in 1901.
The production of bromine during
1902, including the quantity of bro
mine contained in potassium bro
mide, amounted to 513,s00 pounds,
valued at $12s,472, as compared with
552,o4S pounds, valued at $154,572
in 1901, decrease for the year
of 1888 pounds In quantity and OF
$26, 100 in value. There was practic-
ally no change In the bromine in
dustrX in the United States during
1902. Nearly half of the output was
obtained from Michigan. So far as
known, the entire central. basin of
the lower peninsula of Michigan con-
tains one vast brine deposit, which
carries a larger percentage of bro
mine than any brine yet discovered.
The deposit extends from the In.
diana boundary line ON the south to
Crawford county, on the
north, and from the Saginaw valley
on the east to Lake Michigan on the
