Method of Distribution

The Times method OF distri-
button is the best possible for
regular service for home de-
livery. The city is divided into
seven districts. and a special
agent of the paper has iuris-
dictiOn over each district, his
income increasing or dimin-
iShing as the number of papers
taken in his district increases
or diminishes- The fact that
he is responsible for all col
IeetieRs makes it certain that
no worthless patrons can get

Circulation Mostly
Local.

The average daily net circu-
latiOn of The Times for the
first six months of 1907 was
$3.50. OF this number only
Ills go further away from
Washington than Rockville.
Thus more than 81 per cent of
the total circulation of The
Times is in the shopping dis
triet. In few cities Of the
country does a paper having
100000 total circulation have
as large a shopping district
circulation as has The Times.

The growth of The Times

the net circulation was 22,035;
i'm 1905 it was 1891; in 1905 it
was 3s,4O6, and for the first six
months of 1907 the average net

Because the change in the

REJECTS THEORY
Of ENDLESS HE'LL
Mormon Church Does Not AC-
Cept Eternal Punishment,
Says Buchanan.
FUTURE ExPIATION GRADED
HoAeLAN0 SPEAKS OF WORK IN
NEW ZEALAND.

That the Mormon Interpretation of the
Scriptures does not accept the phrase
eternal punishment" as meaning endless
or lasting through eternity was the dec
laration of Alexander Buchanan, Jr., at
the quarterly conference of Pioneer Stake
at the tabernacle yesterday afternoon
THE word eternal or endless used in
this connection simply means that they
are eternal inasmuch as they come from
God, who is eternal or endless. and has
no reference to duration of time" he
said. Future punishment, like future
rewards, shall be graded according to
the good or bad works of a person on
this earth. But the belief in endless pun
ishment is misconception of the Scrip
lures"
Elder Louis G. Hoagland, who recently
New Zealand told of the progress of
the Mormon church in that country and
ended by offering prayer in the ma
tive language.
church in New Zealand" he said. and
rapid work is being done by the mis-
Sionarles. There are slXty-four mission
aries, four of them women. now labor
ing with the natives and Europeans
and making good progress.
'One great work that has been done
is educating the natives properly. Here
tOfOre the education given them by the
other colleges has utterly untitled them
for their stations. They have been edu-
Gated above their station in life, with
the result that they have made poor rec
ords.
The Mormons have changed this by
teaching the natives useful pursuits We
have taught them trades. We have shown
them how to build houses and to care
for themselves and in consequence we
have gained their confidence. They are
all looking forward to the time when
they can emigrate and come to the prom
ised land
THE greatest trouble found in dealing
with the natives is their superstitions.
They have their ideas of the evil spirit
and this has been hard to counterfeit.
but the missionaries in New Zealand have
gained the respect of the natives and in
time will be able to report greater prog
ress than they do today"
President William McLachlan presided
at the conference. Apostle Rudger Claw
son also made a brief address.

Found Dead In Bed.

Andrew Anderson, a Swede who lived
alone and is supposed to have been about
&C years old, was found dead in bed
towards the evening of Feb. &c. Mr.. An
dersons home was on a little farm i'm
district No 7, which he bought about
three years ago of Bert Morse. 1t is
thought that he had been dead "a to
36 hours when the body was found, judg-
ing from the appearance of his horse,
cows and hens. Apparently he had not
stirred after falling asleep. He was seen
on Sunday. The body was discovered
by Mr.. Pearson, a neighbor. who stopped
at the house while on his way home from
the village. He called the town authori-
ties by telephone and asked what should
be done, Town Agent Benson and I'm
dertaker Pierce went to the house, and
the former took possession of the few
papers and some money found on the
dead mans person He had only removed
his coat on going to bed and there was
nothing to indicate that he had suffered
There were no letters giving names Of
members of his family, but he had told a
neighbor that he had two grown sons
and daughter of IA besides an insane
wife. He apparently never received mail
from the post office. He was industrious
and his neighbors liked him, although he
was somewhat taciturn. He came here
from Townshend, where he had lived two
years. but previously he had lived in
Springfield Mass. He had recently bought
new suit Of clothes, and had told a
neighbor that If anything happened they
would be ready for use. He had not
worn the suit. The money found is suf-
hctent to pay funeral expenses The body
was placed In the Woodawn vault and
an effort is being made by messages to
Springfield to find his sons who are sup
posed to be at work on telephone lines.
