Advertise for Workmen.

Pittsburg, April 13.-The coal oper-
ators who have signed the scale with
the miners are advertising for work
men. This is partly due to the fact
that last month when a shut down
seemed inevitable in this district, many
of the foreigners decided to visit their
old homes and have not returned. Ac-
cording to statements of local opera
tors, every mine is in condition for
operation for running time. Already
there is a scarcity of cars in certain
districts.

der Control.
Thomasville, Ca, April 13.-Fire on
Thursday night destroyed the famous
P1ney Woods hotel, swept two blocks
or small stores on either side of Jack
son street, and damaged the Thomas
Vile Iron works.
Ihe losses amounted to more than
100000, and are the result of two fires
which started six blocks apart.
The first fire started in the basement
OF the famous resort hotel, The Piney
Woods" which, since April, 1905, has
been vacant. The hotel was of frame
structure, and in a few moments was
mass OF flames. The fire department
was utterly unable to cope with the
situation, and In less than an hour the
immense 200-roOm structure was burn
ed to the ground. With it went an
old Baptist church in the hotel yard,
used as cottage, and another cottage.
Negro houses nearby were also burned.
Just as it seemed that the flames
were under control, and a telegram
cancelling an appeal to cambridge,
Quttman and Valdosta for help was
sent, the flames broke out afresh in
the southern part of town, six blocks
from the scene Of the first blaze.
This fire is supposed to pe OF incen-
diary origin. 1t swept two blocks of
small stores and negro tenant houses
on either side Of Jackson street, and
damaged the Thomasville IRON works.
The loss is about $25,OOO, with insur-
ance unknown.

A BLOW TO THRIFT.

THE BANKER who wantons with

Comparatively little money is in

THE DIVINE NAME.
Ine1fabIe Word That Is Never Used
by Many IsraeIItes.


IneGabIe Word That Is Never Used
by Many IsraeIites.
An eminent rabbi has given his view
of the ancient Jewish rendering Of the
name of the Deity. He says that the
term Jehovah" the ineffable terra
grammaton, is never pronounced by
many Israelites. They use the word
"Adonoi,' which signifies "the Lord. !"
The translators of the Bible followed
this custom, rendering the word "Jeho-
yah" as Lord" In ancient times the
Pharisees replaced the tetragramma-
ton by Shem. They used "Shemo,"
which is also Biblical, as the sacred
name, and this name is yet retained
to some extent among the Jews. But
it would appear from passages in the
Psalms that Adonoi, or Lord, for Jeho-
yah was more ancient even than the
times of the Pharisees. 1t thus occurs
eight times in Psalm lxxxiv. 1t also
Jehovah had been used in the orig
inal Hebrew. This substitution would
seem to be older than any other, and
it is yet common among all Jews.
The rabbi says he has found that the
ancient translations testify in favor OF
"Adonoi"
Looking at the English translation Of
the Old Testament, it will be found
that the name Jehovah appears in the
books of Genesis, Exodus, Judges, the
Psalms and Isaiah. 1t is not In the
New Testament
