IL is not known how many thousands
of dollars he has secured from con-

The aim of the bishop" who pro
claims that he is the CHOSEN man OF
God TO save the Negroes. is TO enlist
a army OF 100000 Negroes and
from them collect In five yearly
payments the sum of $65 each. The

The vote was as announced and
the members who had persistently
fought Rev. Edwards were almost
Wild with Joy. while his friends were
correspondingly depressed. The re-
suit is that the pulpit OF the Fifth
Street Baptist Church is now vacant.
Although, the church has been in
the hands of the friends OF Rev. Dr..
Edwards, the result of the vote does
not necessarily displace them.
The leading character in this fight
has been Brother w. w. Fields, who
is letter-carrier in this city. He

of the contention. He is Treasurer
of the church and refused to pay out

HIS REMARKABLE ANSWER.

The protest to the Post-ofice De
partment made by the 'bishop'' a.
gainst the issuance OF a fraud order
is characteristic OF the Negro with
a smattering OF Biblical lore. Ii
is a remarkable document, and It is
a certainty that the prophet, while
he claims to have been given knowl-
edge and power above all men of the
earth, was overlooked when the En-
glish language was handed around
The fanaticism with which the
bishop" attempts to surround him
self is blasted by the cold-blooded
way the law officers of the Post-of-
fce Department have handled his
case.

OPENING STRENGTH

 The opening of today's market showed considerable strength in both the New York and Boston markets. The demand for stocks, especially in eoppers were good from the early start, but during the day there were too many that took advantage of the higher prices and sold their holdings Calumet & Arizona, North Butte, and Copper Range were especially strong but closed at the low mark for the day. Nothing has come out yet regarding tlae sifstdands af Calnrraet 6 Arizana or North Butte. Butte Coalition has cuts its dividend from 50 cents a quar- ter to IS cents a quarter which is payable on the 17th of December. The books close the 27th of November. If North Butte cuts it's dividend in the same proportion, it will not pay s1.O0 but 1t is very likely that it will pay at least S1.00 instead of $2.OO. Denn- Arizona is in good demand at Sz.0O. This is certainly the time to buy up Denn. If they never do anything which is observed the property will sell for more than that figure, and there is not the least doubt that the stock will see par within a year " u'Nu HOulu u4ahS d HARRISBURG pEOIlI from today's figure. Shattuck at Sll.50 to S12.00 is easy money and Superior & Pittsburg at $500 is good for 100 per cent profit. It may take year or 1t may be oniy six months but one thing is certain, if you in vest the same amount of money in Superior & Pittsburg or Shattuck and real estate, l will venture to say that you will make better profit in the stock than you would in the real es- tate and you will not have to hunt a buyer for the stock either as you would have to do for the real estate.

Silver Glace Mine Shows Wide Vein of Ore in Drift at the 100 Level, Worth S20,00 Net Ton

MORALES, Nov. 25.-George D.
 Cross, superintendent of the National
 Consolidated Mining company has come InpO IN0gaIes from Ine camp. which is about twelve miles north east from Nogales, with the cheerful
 information that the drift he had been running on the 100 foot level of the Silver Glance mine, one of the proper- ties in the group of thwenty-three mines owned by that company. had cut the ledge finally, which he foune 10 be nineteen feet in width, with a two foot pay streak of rich copper bearing ores that will pay to ship. The same vein of rich ore now en- countered at the depth named was opened at a depth of fifty feet by an incline shaft which followed the ore down, and from which were taken ,a number of tons that netted more thaa S20 per ton after deducting all cost of shipment and charges for treat ment. Work at that point was sus- pended by flow of water too strong to handle with the appliances then at hand. To exploit the vein at greater depths il was considered advisable to sink perpendicular shaft at some dis. tance from the other working. So work was begun upon a double com paTtment shaft at point where it was calculated the vein would be cut at a depth Of POO feet or whereabouts Then, after sinking at 112 feet, a level was started at 100 feet to cross cut tbe ledge. It is that work which has demonstrated the width of the ledge as stated hereinbefore, and opened the rich vein contained therein. It is the plan of Mir. Gross now to drift on the vein until below the old working. and there make an upraise to tap the bottom of the inclined shaft mention ed, which will block out quite a body of ore.
