GOLD WAVE WILL GO
IT WILL BE CHILLY UNTIL ToMoh-
 ROW MORNING.
Warmer Weather Expected Saturday. Temperature Below Freesinx All Over the South-Oranges Are
 Not Imtused.

Exactly according to the prediction of H. F, Chaffee, director in charge of the local weather bureau omce. the weather was very cold yesterday morn ing and during the day 1t became more agreeable. Yesterday morning the thermometer got down to twenty-seven degrees which is the coldest of the sea son. The wind that accompanied the drop in temperature made the cold felt more and those who were on the streets saw some real winter.
 Today will see marked change to- ward warmer weather and by tomorrow morning this cold wave will have passed. The low barometer area which was lying over this section has moved out into the Atlantic while the high area is slowly moving this way and will have passed ny tomorrow night. Montgomery will then enjoy warmer weather for a day or so.
 Tho chilly snap not only struck Mont gomery yesterday and the night before but the entire country. Frosts were reported all the way to Tampa and along the gulf coast as far as Mobile. It was not colder in the orange grow ing district than 1t was here and as this fruit can stand twcnty-seven de- grees nicely the general opinicn is that the crop is not injured.

RHEUMATISM
More Proof That Dr. Williams
 Pink Pills Will Cure It.

Mir. Myron Adams is resident of Bad Axe. Mich. where he is known as a man of his word.
 He was cured of severe attack of rheumatism by Dr Williams Pisk PiIls and his gratitude prompts him to make the following statement for the benent of those who still suffer:
 After working for a long time. m the lumber camps. going through ex- posture to dampness and sunering Iron, colds" he says. T had an attack of rheumatism that lasted two years. It affected my arms and shoulders and quick. sharp pains ran all through my left side.' My arms. principally the ei- bows were sore to the toucn my back was lame and the kidneys af- fected. could not lie down 10 sleep because the pain would then DC too severe. but had to be bolstered up Tn a chair. I had no appetite. could do hardly any work and began 10 tnink life wasn't worth living.
 "I had different doctors, who helped me for a time, but the trouble always came back. read about Dr. Williams Pink Pills in a paper and chancing 10 talk to a neighbor about them, round he had been cured of rheumatism by the pills I immediately bought some and could see after taking a few boxes that they were helping me. LOOK them while longer and haven't hao 2 to,cb of the trouble since. I cannot tell how much I value Pink Pills.
 The fact that DE- Wiiliams Pink Pills will cure rheumatism Is so well estap lished that it is difficult to understand how any sufferer can afford to neslect the remedy. These pills are absoiuteiy safe and harmless. They make new blood, strengthen the nerves ana cure rheumatism in the only way that it can be cured to stay cured

Back to the West.

The buffaloes came from the west
and now they are going back. Years
ago the animals roamed the plains in
countless numbers. Indlscriminate
slaughter by hunters of big game and
by settlers and Indians for food pur-
poses has practically extermnated
them in their old haunts. A few are
to be found in private parks and ZOO
logical collections, and 1t appears that
from these sources the new supply
from the west must come, II at all.
There Is an S,000-acre national reser-
walton in Oklahoma, established by the
United States government, and here
1t is proposed to gather as many Of the
buffaloes as possible, turn them loose
under conditions approXimating those
of their native habitat and leave them
to enjoy life and to increase and null
tiply after their KIND. Some Of the
buffaloes will come from the New
York geological park in the Bronx,

ENCOURAGING FACTS
THOSE CONTEMPLATING CHANGE
OF RESIDENCE SHOULD
READ THEM.

The other day the writer was in the
Office of the Canadian Government at
st. Paul, Minnesota. On the windows
Of the building were signs to the effect
that homesteads Of 160 acres were
given free to actual settlers, and in
the windows were displays of wheat,
oats, barley, other grains and vege-
tables, which he was told were grown
in Western Canada. This could be
readily believed for in no other coun-
try on the Continent would 1t be pos
sible to grow such splendid specimens.
The world Is now pretty well advised
that in the growing of such cereals
as have been named and vegetables as
well the Provinces of Manitoba
Saskatchewan and Alberta have no
competitor. For several years past
specimens have been exhibited at
State and County Fairs throughout the
State, and these exhibits are looked
upon as one Of the chief attractions.
They have demonstrated what can be
done in the climate of a country pos
sessing a soil that will grow things.
But that 1t was possible to grow vege-
tables such as were seen there seemed
to create some doubt. But it was
the case. And apples too. Not of
course the splendid fruit grown in
countries more congenial to such cul-
ture, but they were in evidence.
Throughout Indiana, the hoosier farm
ers were forced to stop and think.
When similar exhibit was placed be-
fore them during the past few weeks,
many of them were forced to stop and
remark: THAT is much ahead Of any
thing we can do. The quality of the
grain we have conceded, for has not
so-and-so sent us samples grown on
his own farm the like of which we had
never seen before. But to think Of
the vegetables-and such vegetables.
Why, We thought everything was
frozen up there, and these turnips,
cabbages, cauliflowers, beets, man.
Colds, pumpkins, and squashes are
away ahead of anything we ever saw
grow" That is the story everywhere.
Thousands of Western Canada home
steaders, formerly United States citi-
zens, are growing just such grain, just
such vegetables, which yield them a
splendid profit with little outlay on the
farms that they have secured from the
Government of the Dominion of Can
ada at the nominal cost of $40 for 160
acres. If adjoining land is wanted it
can be secured from the railway com
panies or from private individuals at
moderate prices and reasonable terms

RECEIVES SAMPLE
OF RICH MINERAL
Specimen from Mustang Mine Assays
Hieh, and Pioneer Is Rewarded
for His Faith in the
District

C. l.. Cole, who with his wife as a
guest at the Alexandria from Man
haitian. Nevada, yesterday received a
sample of ore from that famous dis
trict, taken at depth of 235 feet and
which will assay at a fabulous fig
ure. The rock was taken from the
Mustang mine and is one of the finest
specimens of blue sulphides ever taken
from a Nevada mine.
The Mustang is the property of John
Humphreys, president, and q, b. Cush-
man, secretary, and the company is
known as the Mustang Mining COM
pany. Mr.. Humphrey is the pioneer
of the Manhattan district and in his
letter to Mr. Cole speaks with an OPP
timistic spirit on the future of the dis
trict. He says that a twenty-stamp is
in course OF construction, the water
being carried In a twenty-mile conduit
from Jet canyon, and the work is being
carried forward as fast as weather
conditions will permit.
Los Angeles herald., 1907-02-18

Many properties, now idle, will re-
sumo operations as soon as the mill is
completed and a great boom is prom
ised for Manhattan. Mr.. Cole is con-
nected with William Sinclair and Ken
dali and Douglass. who are numbered
among the largest operators In Ne
Vada.
Adjoining the Mustang is the Man
haitian Cowboy, one Of Judge Voll-
ney Hoggatt's properties. She Cowboy
is now in sulphide ore and this also
promises to be one of NeVada's big
producers. Judge Hoggatt has large
interests in Manhattan and has great
faith in that camp. AS the judge was
one of the pioneers OF the Bull Frog
district and invested heavily there
when that camp was passed up by
most of the large operators, his faith
and investments in Manhattan have
been the incentive for much capital
going into that district.

There is no set and stilted way for the
working of the spirit of God upon
human hearts. Some book, some
chance word, the laughter of a little
child, the flushed face of the weary
mother, the grasses and the flowers by
your path, may whisper Gods message
to you.
"From Individual lives we look out
upon this great world to see God
marching on. He is pouring out his
spirit upon all nations. Whenever a
forward step is taken, an old wrong
overthrown, or a new truth brought to
light along any line Gods cause is
triumphing in the world. His truth is
marching on, his spirit is having his
way. Men will dream dreams, because
the spirit of truth is upon them. They
will have visions of universal love, OF the
overthrow of wrong and injustice, Of
the passing OF poverty of the annihi-
lation of filth and intemperance and
warfare of the time when there shall
be no idle parasite class fattening on
the lifeblood of those below them, of
day when thrones shall fall, when
the insanity of sin shall pass and when
men shall know the peace and joy of
righteousness. Men will dream dreams
like this because the spirit of God is
upon them, and they will work out
these dreams and make them glorious
facts, because of the activity of the
spirit. Wherever God has worked the
human adjunct has worked with him.
Nowhere do we see such striking evil
dences of the presence and power of
the spirit of God as in the history,
progress and manifest destiny of the
human race. Down through the chang
Ing and oftimes fiuctuating fortunes
of humanity we trace one majestic
fact. that humanity is ever moving

HEBREW MILLIONAIRE
ELUDES THE OFFICERS

This from the Death valley mystery
in a telegram received last night.
Henceforth any Los Angeles detective
who. wants to find Walter Scott Will
have to look for him in the great valley
where his wonder mine is located.
The local sleuths have sought in the
highways and in the byways for the
Hebrew would-be millionaire who
thought he could buy automobiles and
parlor suites with bogus checks, but
alas, they can find no trace of him.
They have lost sleep; yes, many
hours of it, over the misdeeds of this
man and they had hoped the Death
Valley Mystery, with whom he INDUCED
in a champagne bust" on the west
bound train, could tell little that will
help them.
Evidently, Scotty has no intention of
telling He says he was taken in like
the rest of the bankers, brokers and
lawyers, but that he is content to con-
slider himself done without making
howl.
Scottie laughs at the "tenderfeet," as
he calls them, who will allow them
selves to be taken in-no, not because
they allow themselves to be taken in,
but because they do not move heaven
and earth to keep the rest of the world
from knowing about it.
The incident offers a chance for the
Death Valley Mystery, so long a mys-
terry to be solved at last, for now that
these sleuths are on the trail they will
undoubtedly follow the Death valley
miner to his lair and discover the long
hidden secret.
1t is thought they are already dream
ing of a day when their names will be
handed down as the greatest detectives
of modern times.

ACTION OF SPIRIT
IN HUMAN LIFE
Part Played by the Holy Ghost in
Things Mundane Is Incompre-
hensibe, Says Rev.
C. C. Pierce

Rev. C. C. Pierce. at the Memorial
Baptist church yesterday morning,
preached on "rhe Spirit of God in
Human Life" taking for his text, Joel
2:28, And | will pour out my spirit
upon all flesh" He said In part:
so far reaching and fundamental
are the great underlying truths of the
Bible and of human life that no one
could ever exhaust them. Like the
traveller from distant lands who would
seek to tell all there was to be known,
but who would soon see that the sub
ject could never be exhausted, so Is 1t
with him who seeks to unfold any great
fundamental Scriptural doctrine. Ban
croft's history OF the United States,
representing the lifelong toll of a dill
gent worker and composing eight great
volumes, tells the story of this coun-
try only down to the time of the Revo-
luton. No history has or ever will be-
gin to- tell 1t all. So is it with this
great doctrine, this great truth of the
