Bishop Against Holiness Belief.

Park View Southern Methodist Church
of the Portsmouth Conference district
is in the throes of discorc, owing to the
failure of Bishop Wilson to return its
pastor, Rev. c. Ellington MCGEE, for an
other year. There are two factions 10
the congregation, one holding the "holi-
ness" or ''second blessing belief" the
other maintaining there is no such
doctrine.
Mr.. MCGEE is opposed to the holiness
idea, and vigorously disaPproved OF 1t IN
his sermons. This course naturally
brought him the opposition Of the "holi-
ness iaction," and long before the con-
ference met at Lynchburg plans were
made to secured Mr.. McGee's transfer by
those he had displeased. This called
forth strong efforts upon the part OF the
congregation standiUg with the pastor,
aud the fight was an earnest one. The
Bishop was pronounced in the statement
that the holiness or second blessing
element had given him trouble in sever
al of the conferences over which he had
presided, and remarked that the time
had come, in bis judgment, when the
General Conference should take decid-
ed stand to check this influence, as it is
serions barrier to the progress OF the
church. The Bishop appointed Rev.
Bascom Dey to the Park View charge,
and / | of the IL stewards have resigned,
while next Sundays service is expected
to show that very large percentage OF
the congregation has changed its place
of worship.

a BIG NINE.

To the outside world, possibly the
Bunker Hill s. Sullivan mine at Ward
ner, is the best known of any of the
great lead-silver producers of the Coeur
d 'Alenes. Though it does not produce
the richest ore, it is generally classed
as having the largest ore body, EN-
ploys a larger number of men than any
other single mine and was the first
mine in the Cour d'Alenes to begin
concentration and the shipping of ore
to smelters.
1t was about Is years ago when the
Bunker Hill began shipping, and with
slight intermissions il has been work
ed steadily ever since, employing in
later years approximately 500 men.
The chute of ore which is now being
worked is los feet wide and is known
to be 400 feet long. Square sets are
used and it takes 81 of these in width.
The product of this enormous body of
ore, as it comes from the mine, we are
informed runs Is per cent in lead.
This chute, where il is now opened, is
$50 feet above the Kellogg tunnel, and
400 feet below the Reed tunnel, the
latter the lowest level above the town
of Warduer. The Kellogg tunnel is
close to two miles in length and deliv-
ers ore to the mill below Kellogg.
The big ledge has an average dip OF
about As degrees and the tendency is
to straighten up with depth, on the
lowest level the dip being over so de-
grees.
Three hundred and fifty feet perpeu-
dicular above the Kellogg tunnel would
figure approximately 500 feet on the
dip of the ledge. When one calculates
what a block of ore this is, the figures
are enormous. IL means 21, 900, 900
cubic feet of ore in place. At cubic
feet to the ton it figures 2,525, 900 tons.
In concentrates running so per cent
lead, which is the average shipping
grade, there would be close TO 100000
tons. This is but one block of ground
above the main working tunnel. 1t

EAST FORK MINES.

F. F. Fisher, who is interested in
several good claims in the East Fork
mining district in Custer county, has
received assays from numerous sanp-
les taken from his properties and 9TH
ers. In speaking of the mines in that
district Mr.. Fisher said
''on the Kansas City mine, which is
about AS miles from Ketchum, the vein
shows permrnent and strong. Crop
pings and float rock can be seen and
traced distance of over 900 feet.
Numerous open cuts have been made
on the vein exposing good grade of
ore, the general being an oxide quartz
with occasional streaks of galena lead
ores, giving values by fire test of SOS in
gold, So ounces silver, ss per cent lead
ana per cent copper. The vein takes
true course across the country in a
northwesterly direction with dip
into the hill at an angle of about 10
degrees from a perpendicular.
1.-The development work consists of
60-foot cross tunnel, tapping the vein
s5 feet deep. Numerous open cuts are
made on the surface exposing the
same general character of ore. The
vein between walls is about six feet
wide. A number of samples of the
ore, taken from various portions of the
ledge, where exposed, yielded s1s in
gold, 5 TO 90 per cent lead.
''The Copper Queen is situated about
one mile in westerly direction from
the Kansas City, on the same continu-
Gus ridge. The vein shows permanent

DIR. Morton startled his hearers by
telling Of mixture which be had pre-
pared and called ''liquid sunshine"
the name having been applied because
the doctor regarded it as good catch
phrase to give to the preparation. By
means of this fluid, he said, the whole
interior of patient could be lighted
up.
The doctor exhibited six tubes con-
tanning Liquid sunshine" one of
sulphate which had been exposed to
radioactivity. He then proceeded to
show the luminous quality of the fluid
by placing each tube before a strong
X-ray, whereupon spot of faint light
was seen about the size of the palm of
the human hand.
THAT, " said the doctor. ''would be
the result if the liquid were taken in
side" 81 believe" he added, ''that
radium may after all be the real cura-
tive property which has been found in
SO many spring waters throughout the
world.
''The advantage of radium over the
X-ray is that it can be applied directly
to the part affected For example, if
placed in a small tube it may be in
serted in the throat, and in similar
manner it may be applied to any vital
region. In other words, with radium
we shall be able to get at the seat of
diseases. There is no end, in my
opinion, to the cures which may be
effected by radioactivity, excited in
one way or another.
''In imparting radioactivity to
liquids, however, we will need to use
the utmost discretion in advising
patients to drink the fluid. It will be
possible, however, to bathea patients
entire interior in violet or ultraviolet
light as the result of this discovery,
and this light we have decided to call
sunshine We know of the value of
sunshine on the outside. particularly
where bald heads are concerned, and
we believe il will have a similar effect
on the inside"
Mr.. Morton told of several cures of
cancer by radium, and exhibited bell
shaped glass, where the smaller tubes
of radium. of about 1000 activity,
could be placed in the flesh affected.
As the activities of radium become
greater, he expected that more impor-
tant results would follow.

THE PARDON NEVER CANE.

William C. Marsh, lonely man of
IS, after three years in the house of
correction hospital at Detroit, Mich,
to close life whose action had ranged
from service in the Union army in the
civil war to the robbery of an Idaho
mail coach 30 years later, died one day
last week of atrophy of the muscles.
During the last few days be has been
unconscious. The hospital nurse and
he were alone in the large empty sick
ward when the end came
Very little is known of the old man,
except that he came to the prison July
Goth, 1895, sent by the United States
court of the southern district of Idaho.
to serve a life sentence for robbing the
mails. He robbed the mail sacks at
Houston, this county, and thus COM
mitted crime against the govern
ment. He received one of the harsh
punishments that were necessary in
the tanning of the ''wild west"
He was born, the prison authorities
think, in New York state, and served
in the civil war in New York volun-
teer regiment. After the war he went
West. Somewhere out there he has
brothers and sisters and an aged moth
er, and these have been working with
out rest for his pardon.
Since he was taken to the hospital
three years ago the old man, becoming
more pitifully helpless by degrees,
longed aud hoped that his last days
might be spent in liberty, and that he
might close his eyes under other than
a prison shelter. He had sought a
peusion, too, as helpless old soldier.
None of these things ever came. His
sister visited him last summer, but up
less they are heard from to the con-
trary, his remains will be buried at
Detroit.
when he came to the house of cor
rection, at the age of 56,n said Supt.
Mcdonnell, "he looked like strong
and active man. But this atrophyiHg
of the muscles came upon him, and
grew until he was helpless. His death,
however, came much sooner than il
was expected"
During the long days of his last ILL
ness, old Marsh realized that he would
not rise from his bed. Several minis
tiers called to see him;he received them
with attention and Difference. He was
very quiet, as indeed he always was in
prison. Prisoners have come and gone
in the hospital ward, some have been
carried out, while he waited in his
deep, sad yearning for few days OF
liberty before his life closed. The
body was taken out during the morn
ing, and the ward is now empty.

GREAT ARE THE CURES BY pluM

Radium and actinium were discussed
recently before the Technology Club
of New York in the operating rooms
of DIR. William ]. Morton, by DR.. Geo.
f. Kunz and DIR. Morton, who is pro-
fessor of electrotherapeuties in the New
ork Post Graduate Medical School
and Hospital.
Dr. Morton explained in detail the
uses to which radium might be put in
curing diseases, particularly those of
an internal nature.
Medicine" he said, sis gradually
abandoning its old-fashioned concoc-
tions, and we are taking up radium
with exceedingly bright prospects. Its
use will consist of physical treatment
almost exclusively. The Roentgen ray
has been of immense value in curing
cancer, but radium promises to go far
ahead of it. IL we had radium of
$50, 900 activity we could no doubt do a
great deal more than we are doing
now. Most of us have been confined
to a much lower radioactivity. We
have been working with from 1000 to
10, 900 luminosity.
THE actual glow of radium does not
represent its actual radioaetivity.
There is great difference in the ore.
One sort of radium may possess a high
luminosity, while another sort may
have high radioactivity and very
little luminosity. We cannot boast of
the luminosity of the kind which we
now have"
