cHILDLEsSNESS A CRIME.
st Louis Minister Urges the Churches
to Begin a Crusade for
More Children.

st. Louis, Dec. To-. II consider the
lunwillingness of women in certain cir
cles to have children the greatest crime
of the age, declared the Rev. William
Schultz in an address to the meeting of
THE Northern Methodist ministers. In
Temperance and the liquor traffic, Mr.
Schultz added, while great evils, were Of
lesser Importance.
He advised the women who are deyot-
ing their time to orusades against the
liquor traffic to take up the work Of
preaching the necessity Tor larger fam
lies in certain classes.
While admitting that the subject was
delicate one, the speaker declared that
necessity demanded that the church
should take action to bring about a
change Of conditions.
In analysing his subject the Rev. Mr..
Schultz said the aversion to raising chill
dren is more prevalent among descend
ants Of the old Puritan stock than
elsewhere. He pointed to the fact that
one foreign element IS beginning to null
tiplY rapidly IN this country, and said
that unless the native born Americans
change their ideas The Republic will I'M
dergo q complete change in the char
aeter Of the population.

Heyerin was in bed with an acute at

daughter, clothed in flame, rushing to
an open door, where she would meet a
draugit that would mean death, he
jumped out Of bed. He did not even put
the bed covering aside, but threw il

to the floor in his efforts to smother the
ilame.
Her screams brought her mother. Mr..
Heverin aid not 90 back to bed for some

and later was delirious. He is still
somewhat weak, as he had not tasted

RICH DEPOSIT
OF PLATINUM
Is that Found in Plymouth,
In this State
RECENTLY UNCOVERED
If Platinum Can Be Secured It viii
Mean a Great Impetus to the Indus
trial Development Of
Vermont.
RECENTLY UNCOVERED

Rutland, Dec. 20. Mortimer L. Hinch
man Of this city, an expert mining en-.
gineer, who has spent several years pros
pecting in all parts Of Vermont, an
nouneed this morning that he has dis
covered in the town of Plymouth de-
posits Of platinum which are the rich.
est he has ever seen in this part Of the
country, and the prospects are that the
getting out OF this platinum will be-
come quite an industry in that part of
the state. The platinum at that place
runs about an ounce to the ton, each
ounce being valued at little over S21.
which Is about dollar more than the
present value Of an ounce Of gold Mr..
Hinchman has purchased considerable
Band in that vicinity and will in the
near future form company to 20 ahead
with the mining.
The principal obstacle which the min
ers OF platinum have heretofore en-
countered has been the terrific expense
OF getting it out, many companies us
ing machinery that costs them about 81
or SIS for each ounce Of platinum secur
ed This is because the platinum is
usually found in solid rock. Mr.. Hinch.
man has, however, recently invented
which will cost only about
81 to operate for each ounce Of plati-
mum taken. Patents have been applied
for on this machinery and they win
probably be granted in the near future.
This machinery win be used BY Mr..
lIinchman's company in mining ON his
IN Plymouth.
Mr.. Hinchman has learned from his
numerous prospecting trips that there is
a sort Of vein Of platinum running north
and south the entire length Of the state,
the average amount being one-quarter
to half ounce to the ton. The heav-
lest deposits are in the vicinity Of Ply
mouth. The largest pieces Of platinum
are little larger than the head Of an
ordinary pin. Nearly al of the plati
mum used in this country is at present
imported from Russia, and, If it can be
secured here, as looks likely it win be
big addition to the industries of Yer
