Autograph Letters at Library.

Eight autograph letters, neatly framed,
all but three of them with the picture
OF the author, are hanging in the KIM
ball Public library as the valuable
gift OF Mrs. X. j. kimballis brother, Mr..
George Morse of New York.
The autographs are those of Washington
Irving, George William Curtis, Charles
Dudley Warner, Jared Sparks, Noah
Webster, Elihu Burnett, the learned black
smith, j. Fenimore Cooper and Fitz
Greene Halleck.
The letters have to do principally with
matters. but that OF Charles Dudley
Warner, written to a Miss Brown, has a
touch OF his quaint humor. Ii says
II confess that / have with you an
interest in the creatures of the brain and
ask myself how ii fares with them. 1t
Is queer thing that it is not given to
a novelist to see the fate of his characters
a moment longer than he is in company
with them and it is so in life as to COM
rades.n
Noah Webster, addressing 5. NJ. Hop
kinson from New Haven, speaks OF tinan-
cial difficulties in his dictionary making
as follows Nothing short OF a certain
knowledge OF the value of the undertaking
would induce me to encounter the labor
and expense: but | ought not to abandon
il and, presume, shall not. The expense
estimate at $4,000, and one half or two
thirds of that sum ! can appropriate from
my own means, but the whole is too
much for me. 1t perhaps may be well to
collect dozen friends to consult on the
best means OF comprising my wishes.

Lost Game in Tenth Inning.

and other four players from Barnard, de,
i feated the Randolph town team on the
/ home grounds Saturday in close and in
| teresting game, securing the winning run
in the tenth inning. Randolph out batted
the visitors, but their errors at critical
moments were more costly. Munsell oil
White River junction played third for
Randolph.
Each SIDE scored In the first. The visi-
tors started in to bat with a will. Ram
dolph's score came as the result of hits
and a muffed fly by Townsend. Ran
dolph added two scores in the second and
Silver Lake tied by tallying one each in
the fifth and sixth. Randolph forged
ahead by two runs in the seventh and as
the visitors were blanked IN the eighth il
looked like sure thing. But in the
ninth came batting rally by the visiting
team, which, with an egregious throw
over first by Lewis, gave them a "life"
that they improved by tying the score.
Even then Randolph had chance in their
half but Shaw fingered at third and lost
an opportunity to score. The weak end
of the Silver Lake batting list rose to the
call and pulled in the deciding run in the
tenth, Randolph going out in order.
The game abaunded in features, good
and bad. Both pitchers were steady, only
Dutton giving single base, while Lewis
hit one man. n. Shaw and Munsell made
great running catches of fouls that looked
impossible, and Emery and w. Shaw got
hard balls in left. Lattimer caught a fly
in center and doubled a runner at first in
nice style. Pinney caught liner near first
that counted. X. Shaw and Munsell did
the best batting.

Silver Bay Conference.

Rev. W. T. Sparhawk, who was dele
gate from the Cong churches OF Orange
county to the 'Noung Peoples Missionary
Movement" conference held at Silver bay,
Lake George, July 2l-30, gave a report Of
THIS gathering OF missionary workers 10
an audience assembled in the Methodist
/ church Wednesday evening of last week.
/ The movement, which i interdeuomina-
i tlunai, Is not independent but finds ex-
i preston in the churches and in eo-opsra-
ton with the various missionary boards
F It's purpose is to keep he spiritual life Of
+ the young people, 70 deepen the mission
+ airy conscience and to arouse the youth Of
the churches to their responsibility Of I'M
Outstanding and supporting the work Of
their respective societ les.
AT this hour the doors Of opportunity
are opening in every land. There is money
enough, there are men enough in Christian
nations to evangelize the world Ia Is years
a. much as America is evangelical, if all
the resources were useu, but 90 per cent OF
the members OF the Protestant churches
give nothing whatever for missionary pur-
poses.
The church is primarily a missionary
society. Missions are not an elective but
q prescribed course in Gods curriculum;
not an accident nor an incident in Chris
tianity, but vital part OF IL. weak mis-
sionary motive is due to a narrow idea Of
salvation as ending with ourselves and
completed when we are provided for,
without the impulse to join with God in
doing for others what has been done for
US.
Al the rate church people are now going
1t will take 100 years TO evangelical the
world. Only one-twentieth as much for
foreign as for home work is contributed. !
There are 1000 ministers here to every
100000 people, while IN the foreign field |
in order to have ten ministers TO every
100000 people, four times the present 1
equipment would be needed.
Missionary study presents fascinating /
fields Of information TO the student and IS
not without its romance. Glasses for mis-
sion study should be conducted in every
church that a wider knowledge may beget
more active zeal. There were at this Silver
bay conference over 600 from all denomi-
nations who met under competent iDstrue-
tors to learn the scope and needs OF the
missionary enterprises which the different
churches are carrying on and to have
their horizons broadened to take in SYM
pathetic view the evangelizing efforts OF
)ther bodies Of Christians besides their
lwn.

Impossible to Make the Hes, Bread.'

One of the best housekeepers in this
or any other town made the above re-
mark when her husband sent home
sack of flour that he had been persuad-
ed was "just as good as Peach Bios
som. If there was any other -four Just
as good" as Peach Blossom then the
prize for being the BEST FLOUR
would never have been awarded the
gold medal at the great st. Louis Ex-
position in competition with every so
called best -four in the United States,
but the committee said Peach Blossom
was the BEST. This was the verdict
of impartial judges. Do not let mer-
chant impose on you by sending you
something 'just as good" Tue reason
for this lies in the fact that his proht IS
larger in the other -four. d. M.
Thomas & Co, the local agent, is in
structed to supply every dealer with
Peach Blossom flour, if your merchant
will not get it for you, D. M. Thomas q
Co. will send it to your home- and you
will have the BEST BREAD. 2ot2

section. The r ID Mountain district,
since it is an arsured fact that a good
wagon road is to be built into that
mineral belt; isattracting the
attention of mining men all over the
state, and justly so, il is one of the
richest mineral sections in the state.

acres of the land which he recently
acquired Just east OF town cleared for

pose 10 set the entire tract if it can be
gotten ready by this fall, in winter
apples. He has fine tract of land
and we are glad to see him show his
faith in the adaptability of this section
for fruit, and believe he will be richly
rewarded. We believe that most of
the fruits will do equally as well here
as in the lower Wenatchee valley and
once this is demonstrated we will have
a large addition to the population trib-
utary to this town.
State Road Commissioner G. A. Stone
whose headquarters are in Spokane

He came with the intention of going
over the recently surveyed Red Noun
tain road, but on account OF Surveyor,
Navarro being sick and not able to
make the trip he will go over the
work later on. Mr.. Snow told us
that at an early day bids for the work
of constructing the road would be
advertised for. 1t is quite possible
that some twenty or thirty miles will
be constructed this year.
