WHAT IS GOING ON

Activity in mining interest in
this district seems 10 be going

the money market.
Not only have surveyors been
busy but the assayers of the town
are kept quite busy. Assessment
work, of which there is now much
under way in the district, is help

the reason that new ground is
being opened and that great deal
of it is showing up values about
which the owners want to know.

QUESTIONS ANSWERED.

Any person may send any biblical ques-
ton to DR.. Gilbert 1893 r street north
west, this city. and receive answer in The
Star.
239. Which IS the seventh day. Satur-
day or Sunday? Answer-That depends
upon the point from which we begin to
reckon. Any day of the week might be
the seventh from any other day seven
days prior. If it be meant to inquire
which is the seventh day in regular sue
cession from the so-called creation week
no one knows. After this lapse OF time
and the revolutions in history an accurate
chronology is impossible by which to
reckon the past.
300. Where does a Christian soul go i'm
mediately after death? Answer-The
Roman Catholic Church says TO purgo-
tory, a place of publication. Some Protest
ants declare that it enters into an inter-
mediate state where II abides until the
general Judgment. when the eternal por-
ton is allotted. Several passages of Scrip
ture appear to teach that Immediately at
death the righteous enter heaven (Luke,
xiii ABB and Paul expected at death 10
