THE, LIBRARY.

With the coming of the new year., 1909,
with the greater part of the English
speaking Christian world, we enter upon
the study of the book, called The Acts
OF the Apostles. 1t is an impressive
thing that throughout a great part of
Christendom there will be the simultan-
eous study of the same Scripture. Schol-
ars and authors will bring out of the
storehouse things new and old, and there
will be abundant literatures, some that
is now on the shelves, and some that will
be provided as the study advances. We
should be reminded that the plan is that
n each church, all are reading and study
ing the same book, pastor and parents,
teacher and taught; all ages and classes
We may be confident that our own Publ
cation Committee, our editor and his as
sociates, will not fail us in producing the
studies of the Earnest Worker, with a

cause of the Assembly's Home and School
already established there, and that dor
inltory which would accommodate several
families could be built for the sum OF
SIX thousand dollars. The Assembly owns
the property adjacent to the school suf-
ficient for the building.
The plan to raise the necessary amount
for the building is this: There are two
Synodical Unions in the South besides
that of Virginia-Texas and Alabama. 1t
is proposed to ask the cooperation of each
Of these Synodical Unions, allowing to
each the privilege of taking one-third Of
the amount-$2, 000-so that the building
may be erected and ready for occupancy
as soon as practicable. Mr.. Somerville,
who has been actively connected with the
Home since it was started, told of the
practical working of the school, and the
advantages of having the Home for the
Missionaries located near the school
Mrs. Buchanan warmly commended what
Mr.. Somerville had said in regard to the
high standard of the school, adding her
testimony 20 the Christian teaching and
training, with the comfortable assurance
to the heart of the missionary in return
,ng to the field, to know the atmosphere
of Christian love that surrounds his or
her sons and daughters
Miss Lambdin, of the Executive Com
Mltee at Atlanta, forcefully set firth the
needs of the home mission field, and
urged a more extended circulation of the

One of the very impressive features of
the meeting was the testimony of the
young volunteers, why they had felt con-

distinctly a cali.
Much of the business was tabled for
lack of time, but the meeting had been

Conflagrstion Averted

A brush fire started on the outskirts
of the city came near destroying the
north end "Wednesday night. The flames,
aided by a strong wind, made rapid
progress through the fields adjoining the
Hironymous residence. After an heroic
battle on the part of several citizens the
fire was successfully combatted, not,
however, until it had made its way to
the very sills of the new warehouse
being erected by Mr.. Hironymous. AT
times the flames reached immense pro-
portions and many times leaped for
distance of several hundred yards.
This is the time of the year that the
farmers are clearidg their fields of dry
brush Precaution should be exercised,
else the town will have to pay the
penalty of individual negligence. When
fire is started it should be closely
guarded so as to avoid damage which
might result, if vigilance is not the
watchword.

MOUNTAIN VIEW ON THE EVE
OF A LARGE SIZED BOOM
Fire Destroys
Office Building
At the Ludwig

Flames consumed the Office building
at the Ludwig mine Tuesday night, re-
sulting in loss to the Nevada Douglas
company amounting to about $500. The
fire is supposed to owe its origin to
electric wires having crossed.
In the neighborhood of midnight. Su-
perintendent Arentz and Auditor Forbes
were awakened by noise. Investiga-
tion showed that the building in which
they were sleeping was on fire. So
rapid was the work of the flames that
they were unable to save anything what
ever, and escaped with only their night
shirts. The FIRE lasted but a short while,
though long enough to destroy the en-
tire building and its contents, consisting
of many valuable papers and drawings,
typewriters and Office fixtures. The
company's laboratory was also connected
with the Office building aud the loss here
is perhaps the most heavy.
The company will Immediately con-
struct another building to be used for
Office purposes.

That the Northern Light group of
claims at Black Mountain promises 90 de-
velop into one of the sensational copper
properties of this section seems to have
entirely passed the doubtful stage. 1t
has always been contended that the
group comprised an estate that under
executive management would exert itself
and the work already done shows that
those best acquainted with the property
know whereof they spoke.
The past week has witnessed thor
ough prospecting of the surface for the
purpose of determining the extent of at
least two ledges which had gone prac
tically unnoticed since the present CON-
pany secured the ground. From one of
ferent points along the trend, the re-
turns revealing sensational values in the
red metal, as follows: 21.83 per cent,
23.77 per cent, 7.S4 per cent, 25.9l per
cent and 1877 per cent. The vein from
which these samples were taken is at this
time proven for a width of five feet and
but the foot-wall in sight.
The shaft on the property is down to
depth of $50 feet. From this level
cross-cut running westerly has been
driven over 100 feet with an additional
12O feet to be accomplished before the
ore body for which it is being driven is
tapped. Calculations show that the rich
vein from which the above assays were
received will be cut in this cross-cut and
therefore an added interest attaches to
the present operations.
Superintendent Bartholomew states
that it is the intention of the company
to add greatly to the working force at
the mine beginning the 10th inst. There
are ample funds in the treasury to insure
a lengthy and systematic campaign of
development. The Northern Light has
passed the prospective stage and has
proven its right to be numbered with
the really good mines of this locality.

Yerington is going to have a baseball
club and a good one. too. There is
some pretty good talent in this neck of
the woods, talent that will make the
other teams OF the state hustle to carry
off the honors of the diamond. The
first practice game will be indulged in
tomorrow on the Barton tract which
affords ample room for ground and
which with little expense could be made
the finest baseball diamond in the state
of Nevada. A number of enthusiasts
will be out to loosen up their arms.
Yerington, the city, will undoubtedly

dition to being a clean healthful sport,
is always popular with the people. A
good club is splendid advertisement

Use of opening up into something really

have been developing the Red Bird
claim, located just beyond the summit
of Mason pass. Wherever work has
been done the vein shows up in strong
fashion carrying gold values up to the
shipping mark.
The ledge has been opened up at
seven different places and some splendid
assays received. The latest work proves
the vein to be in the neighborhood of IS
inches wide samples from which return
a gold value of $151 so to the ton. The
lowest assay yet received went $3.50 per
ton.
1t is proposed to sink deep working
shaft work to commence on the same at
an early date. 1t is confidently believed
that this work will result in the adding

EMPLOYEES ATTACH BIG
INJUN Mine

The Big Injun mine at Mount Grant
has closed down on account of the COM
pany having no funds with which to pay
its help. This Nek number of the
former employees arrived. in Yerington
and stated that the miners had put a
lien on the property.
The Big Injun has been worked in
termittently for period covering thirty
years. During that time vast sums of
money have been extracted. The ore
was treated on the ground by a six stamp
mill, which has also been plastered.
The miners and millmen state that the
holdings of the company are inortgaged
with the exception of one claim which
for some reason was not mentioned in
the mortgage. About twenty men are
effected by the failure of the company,
if it is failure. The officers and di-
rectors are Topeka, Kansas, men.

CUCCENHEIM PREDICTS
RISE IN COPPER

New York, Feb 2S.-Daniel Guggen-
helm, president of the American Smelt-
ing & Refining company, who will sail
on Tuesday for three months vacation
abroad, talked yesterday of general bus
mess conditions
1.-The metal business, as a whole, :"
said Mr.. Gugeenheim, has suffered in
this depression more severely than was
to have been expected for even such a
sensitive barometer of business condi-
tions. Copper, in my Judgment, has
taken the place formerly held by steel
and iron as the index of business COIL
ditions. The metal felt the reaction last
year months in advance of steel and
general mercantile enterprises. Indi-
cations point to turn upward in the
tide. Enterprises which were halted in
complete last winter will be financed
now. In my Judgment, there will be a
steady betterment throughout the year.
By the time the elections have been de-
cided, fresh capital will be forthcoming.
"Wall street is undoubtedly blue. 1t
is my opinion that present conditions do
not warrant SO much pessimism. Wall
street is no doubt the barometer of the
country's markets, but think it is more
sensitive to a coming decline than sue
ceeding recovery"
