oMENS AMONG GOLFERS.
Some Curious Beliefs Among the Welsl
Miners.

Inc collier openly expresses stron:
belief in omens. From the scope which
ms hazardous work offers to their pecu.
mar manifestation il is, upon the whole.
20 ms credit that it should be so little
disturbed by them. But occasionally the
ufead OF vague peril. heralded by some
speClally omlnouS portent, is too strong
Tor hlS imagination, and he drops work ut
an costs. The dread is infectious. a'.u n
pioioulld nerve storm will sweep over n
INNING village, shake the souls of the
workers and keep them out of the mine
nhlll time shall have proved their fears 10
DC sfoundiesS. II is the supposed SUPER
naluraI touch which tells IN giving the
imagination room for action. for the col
hef mas fully proved that he does not lack
courage 10 meet a known danger. As vol
uhteerS III searching the mine after an
eApios!on, when without a shadow of
uoUot death IS waiting at every turn in
the dark roads, the difficulty is To keen
the men from crowding into the cage for
the descent. But If the collier sees what
nc regards rs an omen he loses his cour-
age completely, and will on no account
descend to work
Ihere IS something uncanny about
some Of the golfers omens, Judged in
snelr gloomy setting The golfers nj a
Nelsh coliiery refused TO work because n
ieiaale hgure had been seen waving n
heht IN distant gallery. Although all
the omens Of the collier are significant of
impending evil, their forms. strange TO
say, are those Of grace and light. A fe-
male figure waving a light is not in itself
dread nor an ungracious figure. 4
Whlte dove. again, is singularly benign
anu graceful object; yet a white dove
pefehed on the framework above n mine
on one occasion so impressed the men
about TO descend that they stoutly refused
- go down. 1t is. however, hut fair to
state that a similar appearance of a dove
IN the same place Il few years previously
had been followed hy n fatal explosion OF
hre damp. Two of the chief conditions
faYoring the existing state of superstition
are the darkness in which the work is
done and the risky nature of the work.
The electric Lighting of mines and the
REDUCTION OF accidents owing to it. and
other improvements, will probably be the
strongest agent in lifting the incubus oe
nellef IN omcns of the soul Of the collier.

MUCH GOOD WORK DONE.

The twenty-second annual session
Of this body Of Baptists was held

thirty-Seyen churches in Crittenden
and Livingston counties and q few
on borders of adjoining counties.
There were about 50 present out Of
a full representation of l30.
The Introductory sermon was
preached by Elder VI. T.. Miller, Of
Fredonia, from the text I'VE walk
by faith and not by sight" D." Elder
Miller was at his hest and the ser
mon was felt throughout the meet

opposed To Sight" and Reason"
unaided by Revelation" and as
strong as in its object.
The officers were reelected
Elders W. Il. Gibbs, moderator,
and X. 4. laRue, clerk and treas.
urer. The Association lost no time
in organizing, but proceeded at
once with its regular order of busi-
ncss. About one day was given Ia
hearing and discussing the rcppr,s
on missions. The reports show a
slight decline in contributions Ia
missions and bcneyulenccs. hut for
home purposes a large increase.
There were 2jl bap,isms last year.

hundred earnest advocates of good

Der Of the state capitol this morning
at the opening of the annual conven-
ton of the Minnesota Municipal and
Commercial league. The attendance
was not only large but OF a thorough
~ representative character. the dele
gates representing nearly every city of
importance in the state.
The delegates assembled at II
o'clock and listened to an address of
welcome by Governor Van SAINT. to
which response was made by Joseph
A. Eckstein of New Ulm, vice president
of the association. At the afternoon
session President l.. A. Rosing of Can
nan Falls delivered his annual ad-
dress and this was followed by reports
from the committees appointed to in
vestigate various questions of common
interest to the smaller cities of the
state. Among other things the reports
dealt with transportation and railroad
rates, municipal charters and public
service corporations.

men WITH SHORT
NAMES ARE IT
The Prominent Men in Public
Life Have Few Letters in
Their Names

There may be nothing I'm it. but it
is nevertheless a fact that short names
are running things now i'm national af-
fairs. The cabinet members of the
present and the last administrations at
Washington are sufficient to show this
-Four letters and a single syllable have
prevailed.
Gage. Knox. Root Long, Shaw and
now Taft. Hay succeeded Day as Sec
rotary of state. Shaw followed Gage.
Taft follows Root. Knox took the place
of Griggs. Payne has the portfolio of
Smith. Moody. Hitchcock and Wilson
are the only two-syllable men in the
Roosevelt cabinet. The president him
self Is a two-syllable man. Cortelyou
stands alone with three syllables, and
his name IL pronounced "Cortl-you."
Looking still further into national
characters. we find that Frye is presi-
dent OF the senate; Reed was the great
speaker: Hoyt is solicitor general:
Adee is Hays right hand; Loeb is the
presidents left hand Chaffee Is head
or the army, while Dewey Is head of
the navy,
The most powerful men in the sem
ate are Quay. Hoar, Lodge, Frye, Hale,
Hanna. Aldrieh. German and, Morgan,
not to mention utahs pair, Kearns and
Smoot. Among the short named gov
ernors we have Odell, Yates Jelks,
HUM, Heard. Hin. Bates, Bliss, Toole,
Sparks, Otero, Aycock, White (West
Virginia), Hunt, Wells White North
Dakota), Lanham, Mcbride. Herrick,
Hayward, Mickey Warfield. Brady,
Brodle, Pardee, Terrell. Jennings, Car
ter, Durbin and Frazier
one-syllable names indeed have the
pull in these piping times. Perhaps it
portends victory for the Itos and
Chings over the Alexeffs and Nicholo-
vitzskis in that far eastern embroglio.
