"TRIPLETS---SEX.

One day the wives of two mu-
sicians met on the street. One
was pushing baby carriage con-
tanning three girl babies (triplets)
The other, just over her honey
moon, congratulated her upon such
bliss. Upon which, the proud
mother said that she attributed il
to the fact that after returning
from their honey moon the town
bfnd serenaded them, playing,
"Three Little Maids From School

bride held up her hands in holy
horror and exclaimed, my God!!

veins the values are confined to ga

carry well-defned ore shoots,
which crop on or near the surface,
and these shoots or pay zones are
determined by a series of intru-
sive rhyolite or porphyry dykes,
which define cross walls in the
vein that either tended to obstruct
the enriched mineral flow along
the course of the vein or acted the

These ore shoots in old workings

THANKSGIVING
PROCLAMATION

The time is near at hand when,
according to the custom of our
people, a day should be set apart
and devoted to thanksgiving,
prayer and praise to Almighty
God for the many blessings be-
slowed upon US during the year
fast drawing to close;
Now, therefore, |, John Sparks,
Governor of the State of Nevada,
do hereby designate and declare
Thursday, the 29th day of Novem-
ber, A. ID. 1907, Thanksgiving day.
To the Supreme Ruler of the
Universe, during the year, We have
everything to be thankful for. He
has given us sunshine and showers
and natural conditions for the pro-
duction Of bountiful crops from an
inexhaustible soil He has given
us pure air to breathe, productive
of health and happiness. Neither
pestilence nor calamities have
come through His dispensation.
For which all should be humbly
grateful.
The people of this State, as in
the case of many others, are finan-
ciaily distressed, but this is not at
tributable to God. The avaricious
tendency of man is responsible
for the misery and distress now
prevailing. 1t is, however, to be
hoped that the cloud will soon be
dispersed aud business resume
normal conditions, conservative
and safe for the benefit of all
classes.
On Thanksgiving day, as you
meet in family and friendly re-
union, remember the poor and
needy with gifts of comfort and
joy.

Great Seal of the State of Nevada,

NEvADA'S NEW
BISHOP.

The Rev. Henry Douglas Rob.
inson, ID. d., Bishop-elect of Ne
vada, was born in Lowell, Mass,
March 15, 1860, the son of Alex
ander Douglas and Clara (Boate)
Robinson. Coming with bis par
ents in childhood to Racine, Wis.,,
he took an arts course at Racine
College, graduating with the de-
gree of B. A. in 1884 and in 1887
taking that Of M. A. He also took
later a postgraduate course at the
University of Chicago. For year
after graduation he was assistant
rector of the Grammar School of
Racine College. He then became
instructor Of mathematics at the
Military Academy at San Mateo,
Cal, and it was while there that,
in 1886, he was ordained deacon
by Bishop Kip of California, and
in 1888 priest, by Bishop Wing
field of Northern California. In
1889 he became headmaster of the
same academy, and was also as
sistant at the parish church, ST.
Matthew's. A J n later he was
called to take the post OF warden
at Racine College Grammar
School. In the interim since he
had left there, the work of the en-
tire institution had been suspend
ed and it looked as though the
great work over which James DE
Koven had for SO many years pre-
sided had come to q close. Bishop
Nicholson, who had in 1891 enter
ed upon the episcopate of Milwau
kee, had, however, taken steps for
the re-opening of the grammar
school, and on a small scale it had
been re-opened with the rector Of
St Luke's, Racine, the Rev. Ar
thur Piper, ID. d., at the head of
it. In 1900 Mr.. Robinson was in
vited to become warden of the in
stitution, and although it seemed
almost hopeless to expect any sue
cess he accepted the post, and in
the seven years since that time he
has given his whole energy to the
work OF building up the Grammar
School, in which he has been mar
vellously successful, 50 that to-day
it is more prosperous and has a
greater attendance than it ever had
in its palmiest days ia the past.
DIR. Robinson is also at the pres
ent time president OF the Standing
Committee of the diocese of Mil
waukee and member of the Ca
thedral chapter, and deputy to
General Convention, at which he
was in attendance at the time of
his nomination by the House OF
Bishops.-The Young Church

Then, before it could draw them nip

TT has always been a matter OF sur

Improved Travel Facilities in China.
From the SHANGHAI T1mea

From the Shanghai Times.
The conditions under which the journey
from Picking to Hankow can now be made
by rail reveal a development in the all-im-
portant matter of communications which
the foreign resident in China of twelve
or fifteen years ago would find 1t difficult
to expect under the lapse Of half CEN
fury.
At that time 1t was the accepted belief
that China was SO slow to move that 1t
would take her generation at least to
make up her mind to build railways, an
other generation to turn the sod, and two
or three more to lay the rails and get steam
up on the locomotives; and yet, almost
within a decade. we find her in possession
Of not one but half dozen well-euuipped
lines OF railway, and a score of others either
planned or actually under construction; and.
viewed in the light Of the opinion the ma
5ority of us held, say just prior to the out
break Of the China-Japan war with regard
to Chinas capacity for progress and de-
velopment as they are understood in the
west, the conditions that now exist would
have seemed utterly impossible without the
interpostion of a miracle. At that time
there was practically only one tedious way
by which the capital might be reached from
Shanghai. namely. by steamer to Tien Tsin,
or rather Taku, and thence by boat up the
Peiho to Picking. Or the boat journey might
be broken at Tungchow, and the remainder
of the way, along the Stone road, Travelled

litter carried either by ponies or coolies or
