MARK TWAIN on THE TRUE IN
HARDNESS or EXTERNALS.
From Barpsr's WeskN.


The following letter apropos Of Mr.. Rocke-
feller's contribution TO the American Board
OF Foreign Missions, signed by Satan and
purportnE 10 DO written by the Devil. was
received by Hdrps'S Weekly yesterday. The
editor OF the publication asserts that he has
reason to believe that the name OF Satan
IL forged. and the name Of Mark Twain IL
mentioned In connection With the crime.
TO me Editor Of HurpsYs Weekly;

done with this frivolous talk. The American
Board accepts contributions from me every

the gTaveyards. Requests. you understand.
Conscience money. Confession OF an old
crime and deliberate preparation OF a new
one; for deceased's contribution II a robbery
Of his heirs. Shall the board decline be-
quests because they stand for one OF these
offences every time. and generally for bothf

persstently and resentfllly and remorse-
lessly dwet upon Ia that Mr. Rockefeller's
contribution Is lncurably tainted by perjury
perjury proved against him In the courts

The object of the babbitt is to make the

Windnills in the West.

v A rovel but practical feature Of
western prairie life is the use Of an al
most innumerable number of wind
mills, not only for raising water to the
surface for use on the farm, but very
many are now being used to furnish
power for running two-horse or three
horse power dynamos to store up cleo
tricity for power, light and heat, and
in some cases for cooking purposes,
also. Small areas are being irrigated
by elevating the water by means of
wind-engines in the southwestern sec
ton of the country, where great UNI
derflow of water has recently been dis
covered to exist near the surface. To
use the wind to raise water to grow
never-failing crops to sell and liqui-
date the mortgage is good idea.-

ready, spread about four inches deep in
