A Unique Mission.

The mission of Jesus was to estab,
lish kingdom not of this world.
John 1880. Such a thought was not
of this world. The Jews were looking
for temporal king to deliver them
from Roman rule. If Jesus had
taken hold of their idea and used it
for his own advancement he would
have acted like man and his sue.
cess could have been explained like
the success of Napoleon and Washing
ton. On the contrary, he opposed the
leaders of public opinion and began
the establishment of kingdom which
lives to-day after the kingdoms of
Greece, Rome and Egypt have ceased
to exist. A young man, poor me.
chanic, from a mountain village, with
nc rich, powerful allies, does this in
three years. And he does it by the
deliberate sacrifice of himself. Men
have died martyrs to their mission
But man has never yet planned mar
tyrdom as a part of his mission
Jesus told his disciples that he would
go to Jerusalem and be crucified ant
on the third day rise again Matt
16:2D, He provides for a memo
rial of his death. Men do not bullt
monuments to their defeats. TIL,
French have no monuments to cal
Waterloo in mind. But Jesus woult
have his followers to remember no
the Mount of TRANSPORTATION, but Cal
vary; not his glory, but his shame. In
deed, he makes his shame the test Q
diRcipleship.

IS BETTER
SAY THE REVIEWS

NEW YORK. March 2S.@Dun's
Review of Trade says today:
Retail trade in spring goods has
made further progress and the con-
servatiye buying by dealers in pre-
pairing for currency distribution is
now providing a good supplementary
demand from wholesale and jobbing
houses. Unusually advanced wealth
er in many sections stimulates busi-
ness. and agricultural work is max
ing an early start. In the leading in
dustries there is evidence of gradual
increase in contracts. many plants
preparing for greater activity on
April |. while proposed reductions In
wages have produced no threats OF
strikes. The best news of the week
as to manufacturing conditions comes
from the leather industry. although
shipments OF footwear through Bos-
ton are only about fwo-thirds those
of the same week last year. Dis
patches from the west and south are
most favorable as to the general COM
mercial situation. few cities report
ing the volume of business fully
equal to last years, and these state
ments are supported by bank ex-
same as in 1907. There still Is COM
plant regarding mercantile colec-
tions. although improvement is not
ed. There is a better feeling in the
hide market, prices advancing in sey-
eral instances. especially hides suita-
BILE for sole leather.

Business Improved
And Outlook is
Bright Rolls
Keep Growing

Betting which has been ordered
for the eoncentrator from the east
may delay the getting in operation of
the plant for while longer than re-
Gently expected. This material is on
the way but has been delayed and no
definite time can now be fixed for its
arrival. Aside from this feature,
things are moving along excellently
at the Steptoe plants at McGill Full
has ben no abatement in any manner
of energetic operations The cold
weather of the latter part of the
week and the snow during the first
of the week made for some delays
of unavoidable character. These
must be looked for until the weather
settles in earnest.
At the Cumberland Ely excellent
headway continues with the work at
the Veteran shaft Everything now
points to its being In readiness for
service early in the month. At the
Star Pointer shaft of Nevada Consol-
dated preparations are going ahead
for the entry of that property to the
shipping list and II will be in readi-
ness some time during the month.
Shipments from Copper Flat can also
begin in April Things have been
making ready there rapidly for steam
shovel attack on the ore bodies.
The present week will see largely
Increased forces at work on the ore
line between the Flat and the Vet
eran. Things have been put in shape
for rapid headway on the work there
is to do on the line and there will
be no further delays. Less than two
weeks will probably see the road In
shape to carry the passenger train
service which is to he inaugurated.
In the district generally there Is
better feeling than at any time since
before the slump of last fall Bust
ness has picked up materially and
merchants find the outlook bright.
More people are coming In steadily
and finding employment. The pay
rolls of the month will be the largest
since last October. Among the
smaller mining companies the inn
provement in financial conditions
throughout the country Is being felt
and is encouraging expectation of old
time activity among all of these be-
fore the first half of the year has
been closed.

BRaDsTREET's REVIEW.

NEW YORK. March 2S.-Brad-
streets says today. The first week
of spring has seen an expansion in
retail trade and an enlargement of
operations in building lines. especial
ly in the west Conservative esti-
mates of active needs govern buying,
and replacement of broken stocks is
the chief source of jobbing and
wholesale demand. Trade in the pri-
mary branches is therefore quiet and
operations in Industrial lines are be-
low normal. Fall trade Is backward,
awaiting clearer views of the future
crop and price conditions. Indus
trial conditions are still very irreg-
ular and short or reduced time is
practically universal. The iron and
steel industry does not show much
increase in activity outside of the
seasonable lines. such as nails. wire
and tin plate, which have shown in
creased interest for some weeks past.

BOMB WREcKs BANK
East Side Financler Piled Gold in
 Window to Reassure Depositors.

New York, Jan, 23-An exploding bomb tonight wrecked the front of an Italian bank building on Elizabeth street, briefly exposing $40,000 in sil- yer and gold which the bankers, Pas quale Pau 6 Son. had piled in the windows as ocular proof of their abil- ity to pay depositors on demand.
 The junior partner, Salvatore Pati, who was on guard inside, was badly cut by the glass that rained in upon him, but stuck by his charge and soon had the money stored away in the vaults. The score of clerks had left the place some hours before, and the explosion injured none but the young CT Pati.
 The bomb throwers, who were not seen by the banker, were quickly lost in the crowd of several thousand ex- cited Italians who gathered about the wreck, and their motive is a mystery. It was at first believed that a robbery had been attempted, and the known distress in certain sections of the city lent color to this theory. If robbery was the object the perpetrators, it is believed, must have been amateurs who lost courage at the critical mo- ment when the tempting treasure was within arms reach from the street.

JACK FROST AT LAST
First Appearance of Snow fin Some
 Time Shortly Before Midnight.

Shortly before 12 o'clock last night those who were abroad on the streets were surprised by the appearance of what New Haven had begun 10 think might never be an unknown quantity in this section, at least thls winter, a snowfall, which came along in a we'll timed fashion to hear out the prophecy Of Farmer Tarr, made public yesterday to the effect that New Haven is now to see an end of its mid winter sum mer and have 8 real taste of real win ter with zero weather and snow. Just how long the snow would last was of course an uncertainty but even its ap- pearance was a cause for comment of more or less complimentary nature.
 The cold spell which is to come will be welcomed by the ice men who need it sorely for the harvesting of their crop from the surface of Lake Whit ney. MT. Tarr says that the weather will be considerably colder. To-day he expects that the temperature will have dropped to 10 degrees above. Fair weather is foretold for both today and Saturday, though 1t will be not quite so cold on the latter day
 The approach of a cold wave has been indicated in the last few days by the flight of geese passing over this vicinity in V formation hurrying south | ward
