His Respeet For the Scriptures.

A certain and favorite junior officer
in the United States navy had for
considerable time observed that the
admiral always removed his uniform
coat and donned one Of less preten-
sions when he read his Bible on Sun
day mornings. He often wondered why
the commander Of the flagship should
do so strange a thing, and so one day,
when the good humor of the admiral
permitted the great amount of freedom
such a question would require, he
asked:
Admiral, will you tell me why you
always remove your uniform coat be-
fore you open your Bible for Sunday
mornings readingT
The admiral lifted his eyes and
gravely stared the young officer IN the
face. His smile was more beatific than
fOrbidding.
Lieutenant, l remove my uniform
coat before reading the Bible because
l can never give the Lord of Hosts the
proper amount Of respect and adora-
ton with the stripes of an admiral en-
bracing the arms that support the BIZ
BILE"
1t was a question of the pride of his
heart-which was in his admiral
stripes-overcoming the love he held
for his Maker when he would render
his devotion to him.-Lippincott's Mag
azine.

An Anchorage of English.

According to the eighty-nlnth annual
report Of the American Bible society,
there is no falling off in the demand
for that most popular Of books. Last
year the society issued 1,S31,O96 Bibles
and Testaments. Since its organiza-
ton it has issued 76,272,770 copies OF
the Bible-almOSt as many as there are
men. women and children in the United
States.
The old Bible House in Astor place
Is the site from which this stream OF
Bibles is constantly flowing. They are
printed in all sizes and styles and at
all prices. There are Bibles with raised
letters for the blind and Bibles in all
known languages.
Considered only as book, aside from
its religious value, the Bible is mas
terplece. It's English has formed the
style Of many speakers and writer's
whose simplicity Of expression was
due to its simple phrases and clearness
of thought. The revised versions have
had in comparison little vogue. A quo
tation from the Bible is usually made
in English from the old version. The
Bible phrases which have gone into
common speech and thought are home
" expressions worded in older English
than that of modern custom.-New

SDfrits In Parliament.

The death of one Of the Irish men,
bers of the house Of commons has re-
vived a story current at the death OF
Sir Carne Rasch, when the figure OF
that member was seen In his accus-
toned place, though at the time he
was lying at the point Of death at his
country seat
The dead man was seen not only by
Sir Gilbert Parker, but Sir Arthur
Hayter declares he, too, saw the ap-
partition and drew the attention of Sir
Henry Campbell-Bannerman to the
oddly of the appearance in the house
OF a member who was supposed to be
at home Ill.
1t is not the only instance of duality
Of personality, however, for T. r.
O'Connor CTay Pay') on one occasion
was in Ireland when several of his
friends declared that they perceived
him in his accustomed seat.
The repetition of the OCOnnor incl
dent has occasiOned considerable Cos
SIP in the corridors and some of the
more superstitious are beginning to be-
lieve that Westminster is an uncanny
sort of place, wherein the occult finds
home.

The concealed weapon law will never
quite reach to the point of effective pre-
yention until it becomes locally impos-
sible for a man to purchase a pistol
for the purpose Of carrying it about on
his person. At present the law pre-
scribes severe penalty for any per-
son who is caught with weapon thus
concealed. 1t cOnfscates the gun and
sends the offender to Jail. That man
is likely to be thus cured Of the vicious
habit of carrying q gun. But for every
one caught and punished there are
scores, perhaps hundreds, who are not
captured. The very nature OF the or
Tense makes the task Of detection next
to impossible. 1t Is only the man who
is arrested for another reason and, on
being searched, is found to have a pis-
toll in his possession or the man who in
a spirit of perhaps drunken bravado
fourishes his gun In brawl or indis-
creetly displays it to bystanders upon
whom the law can lay its hand. In
the average case the pistol remains In
the pocket ready for emergencies"
meaning in this connection sudden
temptation or opportunity to STAY with
or without provocation. 1t is a func-
ton Of the law to prevent as well as to
punish, and the surest means of pre-
venting the carrying Of pistols is to
make it virtually impossible to obtain
them. Washington Star.

An Indian Legend.

There was once a man who lived in
the forest far from the rest Of his
tribe. He lost his wife and was very
lonely. After awhile he made a wood
en- doll about her size, dressed it in
the clothes she used to wear and set it
up in front Of the fireplace. Then he
felt better. So a year passed away.
One night he came home, and there
was his wife sitting in q chair in place
Of the doll. She spoke to him, saying,
"The Great Spirit felt sorry for you, so
he let me come back to see you, but
you must never touch me, for if you
do you will kill me-" They lived thus
together for q twelvemonth, but one
night he attempted to clasp her in his
arms. Behold, he was holding a wood
en- doll! She did not CONF to life again,
and he was very unhappy ever after.

Art Treasures In Churches.

According to report just issued by
the French minister of arts, the
churches of France, and not the
Louvre. the Luxembourg, the Museum
de Cluny and Carnavalet, contain the
art treasures of the nation.
1t is estimated that If brought under
the hammer the pictures, tapestries,
statues, carvings and other works OF
art in the churches would realize the
fabulous sum Of six milliards of francs
($1,2OO,0O0,0O0).
The little Roman church Of Conques,
lost in the mountains of Aveyron, Is
possessed Of a treasure which was on
view at the exhibition of 1900. 1t was
Of such marvellous beauty that a syn
dictate Of art dealers offered for 1t the
sum Of 100000 francs (S6,4OO'OOO).
It contains the finest enamels in the
world. reliquaries given by the early
kings of France and Roman statues in
gold and silver. Fortunately fol

MARCUS DALY'S PLUCK.
The story of "a Loan That Brought
Success and Wealth.


When the outlook was the blacklist
and this indomitable captain Of men,
Marcus DAILY, had exhausted his re-
sources and his credit q fortunate ac-
cident placed in his hands small but
sufficient sum Of money to transform
inevitable defeat into certain victory.
LLOYD Tevis, the California lawyer, and
his mining partner. j. b. H0ggin, who
had been visiting their properties at
HomeStake, stopped at Butte on their
way home to California to take look
at the new camp. Marcus DAILY knew
Messrs. Haggin and Tevis well, for he
had worked for them In the old Caiifor-
mia days. He visited them at their
hotel, not the gorgeous palace of gran
ite, marble, precious onyx and mahog-
any which adorns Butte today, but
humber wooden structure more in
keeping with the squalid surroundings
Of the new camp. In Haggln's bed
room, the only place available for
private conversation. DAILY made u
clean breast of it to his friends and
appealed to them for aid. explaining
his theory fully and citing many ad-
ditional facts which had developed dur
ing his mining operations in Anaconda
that went to strengthen it.
1t was thoroughly characteristic Of
the man that he did not attempt to
haggle over the terms Of the loan, but
stated merely the facts and closed his
negotiations with the words: Now,
gentlemen, that is a correct statement
Of the situation Of my affairs and the
condition Of my mine. l must have
$4,000, and must have it at once to
meet next Saturdays payroll and cur
rent bills and to provide for the eX-
penses Of operation for another six
months or so. If do not get 1t 1 am
fiat broke and viii have TO close up. l
have told you what l have got and
what think and what 1 think l am
going to get when that shaft is down
another 100 feet or so. Make your own
terms, but let me have the money"
They gave him the $4,000, and, Of
course, being astute business men, a
contract was drawn up and signed then
and there transferring to them the con-
trolling interest in the property. But
I'D to the date Of his death Lloyd Tevis
always declared that, though he believ-
ed thoroughly in Marcus Days integ-
rity, both he and Mr.. Haggin thought
that ne was chasing a chimera, that the
theory upon the elaboration of which
Marcus DAILY had spent so many sleep
less nights and all his substance was
fallaciouS and that no gOld-cOpper de-
post would ever be discovered in the
bowels of Butte mountain. In fine,
Haggin and Tevis let DAILY have $4,000
because they liked him. They certain
" never dreamed that Anaconda
would prove q more veritable bonanza
than the ComStock lode. As for DAILY,
he had never doubted his ultimate sue
cess, and when three months after that
meeting in the hotel bedroom the main
shaft of Anaconda penetrated, as he had
always believed it would, the richest
and most extensive gOld-cOpper deposit
In the known world he conveyed the In
telligence to his partners in California
in this most matter Of fact telegram:
1--WE have reached it. Come out and
look at it."-Public Opinion.

MAKING DIAMONDS.
The Process Is simple, but the Re-
SUIT IL microscopic.

SUIT IL microscopic.
Sir Within Croo.,es in the course OF
a lecture Oh Diamonds" before the
British e.. ocil, ion at Kimberley the
other day eX, aimed to the assembled
company how the precious gems might
be manufactured.
"The first necessity" he said, us to
select pure iron free from sulphur, sill
con. phosphorus, etc, and to pack 1t In
a carbon crucible with pure charcoal
from sugar" The crucible must then
be put into the body of the electric fur
mace. after a few minutes heating
to a temperature above 1000 degrees
c.. temperature at which the iron
mets like wax and volatilizes in clouds,
the current is stopped, and the daz-
zling. fiery crucible is plunged beneath
the surface OF cold water, where It Is
held till it sinks below red heat.
"The sudden cooling solidiies the
outer layer of iron and holds the inner
molten mass in tight grip The ex-
pansion of the inner liquid on sOlidify-
ing produces an enormous pressure,
and under the stress of this pressure
the dissolved carbon separates out In
transparent forms infinitely micro
scopic. it is true-all the same verita-
BILE diamonds, with crystalline form
and appearance, color, hardness and
action on light tie same as the natural
gem"
Attention was called to the sugges-
ton that the diamond is gift from
heaven conveyed to earth in meteoric
showers. According to this hypothesis,
said the lecturer, holes were bored in
the earth by the impact of monstrous
meteOrS, the larger masses boring the
holes, while the smaller masses, dis
migrating in their fall, distributed
diamonds broadcast.
Bizarre as such theory is" obsery-
ed the great scientist, Il am bound to
say there are many circumstances
which show that the notion Of the
heavens raining diamonds is not i'm
possible" In proof Of this he showed
the audience photographs Of diamonds
he had extracted from a meteorite.
The lecture abounded in interesting
passages. Here is one:
1T is not uncommon for a diamond
to explode soon after it reaches the
surface. Some have been known to
burst in the pockets Of the miners or
when held in the warm hand, and the
loss is the greater because large stones
are more liable to explode or fly in
pieces than small ones.
"Valuable stones have been destroyed
in this way, and it is whispered that
cunning dealers are not averse to al
lowing responsible clients to handle or
carry in their warm pockets large crys-
tails fresh from the mine. BY way of
safeguard against explosion some deal
ers imbed large diamonds in raw pota-
to to insure safe transit to England"
BY the end Of 1904 ten tons Of dia-
monds had come from the Kimberley
mines, valued at f6OOO0,0OO. This
mass of gems could be accommodated
in box five feet square and six feet
high.
According to the lecturer, one of the
most remarkable gems in existence is
a phOsphorescing diamond in the pos
session of Mrs. KunE of New York,
which will pLOsphoresce in the dark
for Some minutes after being exposed
to a small pocket electric light and If
rubbed on a piece Of cloth leaves a
