Men have tried with that weapon
to stop patriarch and prophet and

that Genesis is away and that the
Psalms are imprecations and the
Prophecies are the fantasies OF
brain bewildered men and the Cos

and the Epistles are the letters of 81
mad Jew and the whole book has
had its day. The astronomical pen
knife cuts out Joshua and TIE
anatomical penknife cuts out Jonah
and the pathological penknife cuts
out the resurrection and the
chemical penknife cuts out the
Cana wedding feast and natural
law penknife cuts out the miracles
and the prudish penknife cuts out
Solomon's Songs. But after all that
it has come down to us without a.
chapter expurgated or a parable
riddled or a miracle injured or d.
promise discounted He who mutl-
lates the Bible only injuries himself
and opens the way for future
disaster. Robert Southey in the,
'Inchcope Rock" tells the story OF
such a foolhardy course. Sir Ralph
himself was wrecked upon that
very ledge whose warning bell he
had wilfully silenced. 10 stop the
fire bell does not extinguish the
flames, to tear up the prescription

God warns we had better take heed
and repent.

Mining Notes.

Montfort is excited over the dis
covery by the drillers of a 14-inch
sheet of jack at 119 feet on the O..
P. David prospect just west of
Montfort junction. Shares which
cost S. to $40 can not be bought for
$500.
The Lancaster Exploration COM
pany have drilled ten holes at Ken
dallville and struck good ore in
seven of them.
The oil rock underlying the
Plattevllle district at a depth
varying from a few feet to several
hundred feet, has been discovered
to contain much gas, estimated at
1900 cubic feet to the ton. The
rock is also said to contain valuable
by-products. With this cheap fuel
zinc smelters can be located in the
district.
~
There is a movement on foot at
Plattev1lle to convert the present
Normal School building into a state
school of mining. "A good idea.
~
At Platteville they continue to
discover stratum after stratum OF
ore of varying degrees Of richness =
enough to insure pay dirt for many
years to come.
Business men of MontfOrt are or
ganiziug for the purpose of operat-
ing mines and constructing and
erecting mining machinery. This
company intends erecting foundry
and machine shop at the most
favorable point in this district.
Consolidated Mining, Milling and
Manufacturing Company, whose
property is located near Montfort,
and Livingston, though little known
outside of immediate vicinity, is
one Of the best. Near Livingston
the company has a shaft down near
lv 90 feet, and a vertical sheet of
lead, nearly inches thick, extends
through the shaft, from a depth OF
about 40 feet, to the bottom. The
shaft will have to go about 40 feet
yet, to reach clay bed. The COM
pany has a good building here to
cover it's machinery, also COM
modious boarding house. Near
Montfort, the company has two
mines in a more advanced state of
development. Here there are two
shafts down, and in one, drift has
been driven about 60 feet, north
from the shaft. This drift runs
through milling ore, that will assay
from Is to 90 per cent zinc and lead.
Here the company is building a con-
centrating plant, with capacity OF
100 tons, daily. This plant will
mill the ore from both mines, which
are only about 80 rods apart. 1t is
expected to have the plants in
running order by December LIST.
This plant is only half mile from
the G. & N. W. depot, and with but
little expense, spur track can be
run from the track, to the mines.
About 500 tons ore are now on the
dump, ready for the mill. They
have already secured several hun
dred acres of choice mining lands.

AS the time approaches when the
various institutions of higher learn
ing throughout the land begin the
work of the next collegiate year,
there are great many Young men
and women who find themselves
Obliged to make final decision
concerning the institution which
they shall attend, and the phase of
learning to which they shall devote
their attentions. In order that a
decision may be made most intelli-
gently, it is necessary that the pros
pective college student have the
advantage of more than one view
point. His own view point is neces-
sarily somewhat limited. He may
imbibe certain prejudices from his
parents, his fellow high school stu
dents. and other associations; and
his teachers and friends, who are
attending or have attended certain
institutions, may strive to influence
him to follow one path or another.
The considerations placed before
him are not always disinterested
and free from personal prejudice on
the part of his friends; and quite
frequently it happens that young
man finds himself engaged in a
study for which he has no liking,
in an institution the spirit of which
he is not in sympathy, because he
has let himself be guided blindly
by his friends.
The writer hopes to present to
young Kentuckians the view from
which the higher education Of the
latest type must be considered, and
the spirit in which such education
must be sought. He also wishes to
indicate that the State College of
Kentucky is the place for Kentuck-
ians who seek the knowledge she is
prepared To give.
AS Iule, the one thing which a
s)lIege education gives a man, is
self-esteem. If the college student
is energetic and capable, this self
esteem does not hurt him; il he has
less than the mediocre ability, he

an opinion of himself which is out
of all proportion to his ability to

Huron, S. D.. Oct. 5.-The crop report
for the week says:
Tie weather during the week aver
aged considerably warmer than usual
for the time of the season and, except
ing fairly we'll distributed and mostly
light showers the latter part, was gen
orally dry. The conditions We're very
favorable for maturing late crops and
placing them beyond danger from frost.
On the whole, thrashing and late hay

corn, and the gathering of potatoes
made very good progress.
Reports continue to indicate that in
some localities the yield of wheat is
disappointing, but elsewhere mostly ia
vorable, though variable, and there is
considerable smutty grain in some To-
c%alities. Oats and spelt are as a rule
very satisfactory crops, but consider
able barley is discolored.
Corn has ripened rapidly, is now all
past danger from frost, and consider
able is nearly ready for cribbing. I'm
usually good yield is assured and cut
ting is %favorably advanced.
Flax is a good crop and safe from
frost, but there is some yet to be cut.
A good crop of millet has been Sc
cured.
In a number of localities potatoes are
yielding only fairly well, but the quail
ity is good, except thai some on low
land are affected by rot.
Grass is curing very favorably and
the outlook is bright for ample winter
pasturage on the ranges. Fall pastur-
age is generally good and live stock is
doing nicely.
Over a large area the ground is rather
too dry for good blowing. The seed

Chief Little Bear had his band

succumbed to drought and before the
end OF this month practically all of the

Many of the tribe are now in Great

could not hold them and in a few weeks

Washington. Oct. 5.-The weekly!

summarizes crop conditions as follows:
Weather conditions for the week
ending October 2, as a whole, were,
exceptionally favorable to agricultural.
interests. Under the influence of warm
and generally dry weather throughout
the central valley, lake region and At
lantic coast districts late crops have
rapidly. Much needed rains
fell in the Rock mountain and north
Pacific coast regions. Frosts occurred
in the middle Rocky mountain region!
and northern portion of the middle Alta
lantic states, but caused no serious in
jury. Highly. favorable weather pre-,
vailed throughout the principal corn
states. An exceptionally large and fine
yield of corn is now assured over much
of the greater part of the corr belt, and
only a very small part of the crop in
the north central portion, it is esti-
mated at from 2 to 5 per cent, of the
total remains exposed to injury from
frost. and this is maturing rapidly.
The crop in Missouri was extensively
blown down or lodged.
