"Topic Class" Meetings.

Religious newspapers note that some
churches where the weekly prayer
meeting had become a declining insti-
tuition have built up large attendance
upon a topic class" conducted by a
layman, at which all are invited to
speak on some such subject as, for in
stance, "My Thought of the Super
natural" Essential Beliefs" "Obliga-
lOns of Church Membership, 1.-THE OBJ
servance of Sunday" and '@rhe Right
Use Of the Bible" 1t proves, they say,
that people who would add nothing to
al abstract discussion were glad to
Talk upon such practical texts. This is
a practical age, and the people of the
present day like to feel that they are
pursuing a definite purpose So the
8pic class may be better in some cases
than lifeless prayer meeting. Yet az
ter all, can there be a full substitute
for the prayer meeting itself in main
tanning religious interest End deepening
spiritual life?

ANOTHER COAL MINE HORROR
Over $50 Miners Are Entombed and
There Is No Hope to Rescue
Them

Jacobs Creek, Pa, Dec. 21-An ex-
plosion of gas in the Darr mine of
the Pittsburg Coal company, located
here, has entombed between 200 and
$50 miners, and there is scarcely ray
of hope that single one of them will
be taken from the mine alive Par
TALLY wrecked buildings in the vicinity
of the mine and the few bodies found
early in the rescue work indicate an
explosion of such terrific force that it
seems impossible that any one could
have survived it. All of the l3 bodies
taken out up to this time are terribly
mutilated, and three of them are head
less.
This is the third mine disaster since
the first of the month in the veins OF
bituminous coal underlying western
Pennsylvania and West Virginia, for
the Naomi mine, near Fayette City
and the two mines at Monongah, w
Va, in which the earlier explosions
happened, are in the same belt as the
local workings. The last catastrophe
swells the number of victims of deadly
mine gas for the 10 days to between
$50 and 500.

FOREIGN MISSIONS GROWING.
Addition of $4,000 to Protestant Faith,
Big Receipts.

The foreign missionary work done

ing the last year is summarized by sta
tistics published by the Rev. e. e.

gain of nearly 100000 over, the to.
tai receipts of the previous year, and
an addition of $4,000 communicates
making total of 1,59S,644 now en-
rolled.
In the United States there are 81
principal organizations engaged in this
work, with a multitude of auxiliary so
cieties. These organizations are now
supporting 1888 missionaries in foreign
lands.
In the churches occupied by these
missionaries there are enrolled 610,93s

ported by the 81 organizations in ths

WASHINGTON FIRST.
Idaho and Oregon, Too, Show Big
Gains in Lumber Production, Ac-.
cording to Forestry Report.

Washington led in 1905 in the pro-
duction of lumber, with 4,305, 053.O00
feet; it was three times that of 1899
and Appropriated twice the output of
any other state.
The forest service has prepared its
report on the lumber census for the
year 1896 and presents facts showing
that the timber industry in this coun-
try has grown to immense proportions,
it's aggregate value being about $780,
900 900, or 5 per cent on $12,000,000,-
900.
The reported lumber production of
the United States was 1850, 736, 900
feet, with a mill value of 1921 ,l51, 1888,
the largest quantity ever reported for
single year and by far the greatest
value. In addition there were pro-
duced 1855, 100000 shingles, valued
at ,$24,154,555, and 3,812.S07, 900 lath
valued at $11, 490,570. The total value
of the lumber, lath and single produc
ton reported in 1906 was thus $685.,
1858. Making fair allowance fol
incomplete reports, it is safe to say
that at present the annual lumber cut
of the United States approximates 40,
| 900, 100000 feet and that the total mil
value of the lumber, lath and shingles
annually produced is not less thai
\ $500, 100000.
The changes which have taken place
in the cut of the various species are
strikingly reflected in this table. The
cut of Idaho in 1906 was more thai
six times that of 1899, that of Wash
ington was triple and that Of Oregon
more than double. In the same lengtl
of time the lumber production o
Louisiana increased 1911 per cent
that of California 1877 per cent an,
that of Mississippi SO per cent. o.
the other hand, the cuts of Indiana an
Ohio decreased 81 per cent, that O
Georgia 1854 per cent and that of wis
consin and Michigan 80 per cent.
In 1906 Idaho cut 41S,944,00O an
Oregon 1904, $4,000 feet.

BILLIONS IN THE 1907 CROPS
Wheat Brings More Than A Half
Biliion-Stupendous Sums From
American Farms.

Washington, Dec 23.-The total
value of the farm crops for 1907 COW
cred in today's census crop reports
was $3,404 ,000, 900, an increase of s47S,-
100000 over 1906. The farm value on
December 1 of four chief grain crops
follows:
Corn, $1,34O,446,OOO; winter wheat
1851, PIT, 900; spring wheat, $193, 220,
900; oats, 1884 1858, 900.

about seven weeks, but the manage
ment recently offered to resume opera
tions at both plants on a reduced wage
scale, similar to that in force here a
year ago, the new basis being $3.50 a

Shipments from the Butcher Boy
will be resumed as soon as the CRANKY
SIN elter is started up again.
The force of the Opal mine is to be
increased as soon as the new winter
quarters for the men are completed.
An improvement of the ore in the
drift from the upper tunnel on the
Bluffton is noticeable as the drift
progresses.
The Oversight mine, on Belchel
mountain, will probably be in the lis
OF shippers early next summer.
The machinery of the Copper Ke,

and no doubt that by Christmas it will
be in fine working condition.
