TO School Boards.

The Thanksgiving session of the
eDiStrict Teachers Association for this
district will be held at Hutchinson on
Nov. %. to 80. Teachers who attend
this meeting will have to dismiss
school on Thursday and Friday of
that week. The educational value of
the meeting to both the teacher and
his school will be worth several times
the time that will be lost to the
school. We are anxions that the
teachers of our county be enthusiastic
and spirited and hope to see a good
attendapce.from this county at the as
ISOLATION. I am therefore requesting
the school boards of Barton County
to give their teacher Thursday and
Friday Of Thanksgiving week. and
not require them to make up either Of
the days providing they attend this
association held in Hutchinson at that
'time. Custom gives each teacher
Thanksgiving day SO they will only be
giving the teacher one day.

Fire at Congress.

Congress, big mining town sixty miles south of Prescott, suffered the most disastrous fire ever known in the town on the night of May 3l, when Congress Hall, 6,OO0$ building, was totally destroyed, with contents and three persons lost their lives.
 The building vas two story frame affair, of which the lower floor was an assembly hall and theater and the up- per floor occupied by the Knights of Pythias, who lost 1,OOOS in parapher- nalia. The fire originated under the stage by tramps sleeping there. For a time it was feared the entire town would be destroyed, but heroic work on the part of citizens and the fact that no wind was blowing saved it. Charles Price, a blacksmith, was burned to death in the building. He entered, attempted to carry out a pia- no. which fell on him. Before res- cuers could release him the roof fell in. A Mexican miner and another miner also entered the building and were lost.-Copper Era.

The Chinese Seven Ages.

A French officer, Louis de Chantilly, tells of his discovery in a Buddhist convent in the mountains of Tonkin of dusty manuscript containing the Chinese version of the seven ages of man.
 At 10 years old, says the writer, whose name has long been forgotten, the boy has heart and brain as soft as the tender shoots of young bamboo. At 20 he is like green banana; he is just beginning to ripen in warm rays of common sense.
 Thirty years sees him developed in- to buffalo. He is strong and lusty, full of bodily and mental vigor. This is the true age of love; the age for him to marry.
 At 40 years, the prosperous man has grown to be mandarin and wears a coral button. But it would be truly indiscreet to confide to him at this early age any function calling for ju- dicial intelligence or calm.
 When he reaches 50 years, however, although he has grown stout and fleshy, he is fit to hold any municipal or state office; he can administer city or a province or perform any official du y.
 But at 50 years he is old. Han. . crafts and all active bodily activitit S are beyond him. He gives his depend- ents and clients advice. That is all he is fit for.
 At 70 he is just a dry rice straw. He has only one care: to husband the breath of life that is left to him, to preserve it, even by artificial means. His sons must assume the care of his estate and the performance of his duties.

Dave Heron, who came in from the Basin yesterday, states that the ledge on which they are drifting is six to seven feet wide, the ore being sulphide, carrying about 4 per cent copper and averaging six teen to twenty ounces silver per ton the entire width of the ledge. A foot of the ore runs l50 ounces silver and in this pay streak there is seam two to three inches thick that goes about AS to the pound in silver.-Silver Belt

A special from Logan to the Salt Lake Herald says: Parties in from the Copper Zone mine, which is To- cated west of the Lucin cutoff, some- where in the Silver Island district, bring news of a sensational strike in that mine, and in consequence consid- erable excitement has been aroused here, as the Copper Zone and adjoin- ing properties are almost entirely owned by Logan and Cache valley people. It is copper mine and some- thing like hundred feet of develop ment work has been done upon it. The new strike was made in the bot tom of the shaft and samples of the ore exhibited here fairly bristles with native copper, being the finest copper ore ever shown here. The extent of the strike was not known when the bearer of the news left there.
