little carriages, upholstered in blue
silk, with tiny white Blankets and coun-
terpanes with lace edges. Skyblue took
her own little Chez to the baby's party,
strapped in the leather and bark
papoose frame, to her back. Chez was
content and very happy. Her big
bright, dark eyes took in the pretty

But Skyblue did not have happy
moment after she saw the little go
carts and was told to what use they
were put. Sne resolved then and there
that she would have one.
She is a large, healthy woman, and
the excuse that she was not strong
enough to carry her papOose on her
back she knew would not carry weight
with the Indian officials. The only rea-
son she knew of that she should have
a new sort of carriage was based on
her theory that nothing was too good
for little Chez"
She was given to understand that
she would be permitted to purchase
one, but that she would not be al
lowed to use it while in ST. Louis. for
the officials argued that such an limo
walton would spoil their exhibit.
This question of imitation among
the Indians is one of the most per-
sistent that the Indian officials have
to contend with. Nearly every day
one of the squaws, the young children
and the chiefs suggest to DR.. Meow

they would like to have some article
of clothing, or some one thing, that
they have seen and admired on their

THE BIBLE AND OTTER BOOKS.
Three Hundred Million Copies of the
Scriptures Circulated in a Century.

Three Hundred Million Copies of the
Scriptures Circulated in a Century.
On Wednesday, March Z, 1904, "a
numerous and respectable meeting Of
persons of various denominations was
held at the London Tavern, and So
ciety formed Ito promote the circula-
ton of the Holy Scriptures in the prin-
cipal living languages" At that time
the BibIe, or portions of it, could be
obtained in about forty living lam
guages, spoken by two-tenths of the
race. During the century since the
meeting at the London Tavern adj
journed, and very largely from the
machinery then and there started, the
Scriptures have been translated into
$50 languages and dialects, understood
by seven-tenths of the race. BY the
London society alone 1S0000,0O0 copies
have been distributed, at an expense of
S70,0OO00O. If we add to this total the
100000 copies already distributed by
the younger American Bible Society,
and the unknown millions printed and
sold by private enterprise, we find our
selves inside a safe estimate if we hold
that certainly 3OO,OOO,OOO copies of the
Scriptures, in whole or separate books
or portions, have gone into circulation
during the last century.
Amusement attends the study of the
Bible, whatever the point of view or
the course pursued. But nothing about
tho Rihla ts moro amazing than itS
continuous, universal and utterly I'M
paralleled popularity. In nearly every,
it not every, country on earth where
books are sold, more Bibles are sold
than any other book. Last year the
British and Foreign Bible Society
alone distributed 5,943,775 copies, the
majority by sale, in $40 languages,
covering every part OF the globe. And
the issue by the American Society for
the year amounted to 1,99S,55S Bibles
and portions.-Century.

GREAT MEETINGS
SUNDAY MORNING

The splendid results OF the recent
evsngelistic meetings at the Taber-
nscle were apparent At the various city
churches last Sunday morning in an
increased attendance and in larger
financial contributions for religious
enterprises than has been known for
many years. Nearly every church was
the throng Of worshippers, condition
of affairs almost without parallel in
this city. In several OF the churches
there was a large augmentation Of
membership from the ranks Of those
converted under the preaching of Rev
W. A. Sunday. which made the service
longer than usuxi. The people OF Can
on City worshipped IN the same
churches isst Sunday which they hsve
been in the habit OF using for that pur-
pose for many months, but there was
such large influx of new people that
the old members were almost obscured
by them.
The special meeting for men at the
Tabernacle Mt O'Clock Sunday after
noon was marvellous demonstration
OF the effect Of the late revival and
proved as nothing else has done. the
power OF the gospel in turning men
from sin unto righteousness There
were fully 1900 men present and many
Of them testified to the transformation
which had taken place in their lives
since they had accepted the Bible as
the basis of their faith and as their
rule OF conduct.

5000 people crowded into the Taber-

NEW OBSERVATION
CARS ON D. & R. C..

A decided novelty in railway passen-
ger equipment Is about to be introduce
ed by the Denver & Rio Grande rail-
road company in Colorado and will
undoubtedly create widespread COM
ment. The company is now preparing
to install new observation cars, entire
iy without tops and with sides only
high enough to prevent passengers
from falling from them These open
top observation cars. as they are call
ed, are now being built for the Rio
Grande and will be attached during
the summer months to the daylight
trains running through the Royal
Gorge, Canon of the Grand River and
the Black Canon of the Gunnison. They
will be completed and placed in service
not later than June / of this year.
These cars are Of model construction
and have seating capacity Of - per-
sons. They will have low sides but no
tops, beings entirely open and giving a
free and unobstructed view OF the
scenery. No charge is to be made for
seats in these cars. and they will be
put on the trains during the day at
Canon City and will be run probably
to Saiida and return. The same ar
rangements will be made at the
entrances and exits of the ether canons
OF the road.
