The Gasoline Enqine.

w. D. Hubert in the May Atlantic
 Let us for moment, consider the gas- oline engine not merely as a piece of ma ehinery, but in it's relation to the de- velopment of it's owners character.
 The first season that you live with that engine you never cease to wonder why in Sam Hill you were fool enough to throw away your good money on such diabol- guage you sometimes use in addressing the thing is not at all what it should be, and you cannot help but feel that the whole connection is having a distinct- ly bad effect on your morals. And, of course, it is the engine,s fault. But later. with the growth of knowledge, ex- perience and understanding, you learn to paraphrase MT. Kipling's celebrated piece of advice to the raw recruit of the rife corps:
 When 'arf of your bullets fly wide in the
 ditch,
 Don't call your Martini cross-eyed old
 bitch;
 She's human as you are-you treat her as
 sich
 And she'll fight for the young British sol
 dier.
 Among all the creatures of steam and iron and brass ever devised by the mind of man, there is none more human-I had almost said none more feminne-than the gasoline engine. Surely there Is none more responsive. You treat her as slch, and she'll work for the young Yankee yachtsman.

replied Senator Money, recalling the ln- jury in Franklin.
 T can cure your neck,' said the physi- cian ''it will require but a moments time.'
 Then he laid the senator on table, took hold of the vertahrae with both hands and snapped it into proper position.
 The physician told Senator Money that he must exercise precaution until the weakened muscles regained their normal strength He was cautioned to not turn his head in looking at anything but to move the entire body, These instructions were, observed, and the neck apparently became as strong as it was 30 years ago before the accident.

Veterans, acted as master of ceremonies. After the opening prayer w. B. Bank head, son of Senator J. H. Bankhead, was introduced to deliver the address of welcome.
 MT Bankhead's address was forcible. tender and withal exceedingly interest," ing in it's every line every phrase. He spoke at some length of the greatness of the Confederate generals and of the fortitutde and bravery of the southern soldero T thank God, he said that l am the son of a Confederate soldier. Though he has been honored by this state with rank as a state senator, before God this day, I had rather he would hand me down as a heritage his old sword than his commission as a senator"
 In conclusion he said We are grate- full that Jasper and Walker county can and is having an occasion like this. Upon the part of the local chapter, the Vet erans, the Sons and the citizens, it is q great pleasure to welcome this vast concourse."
 Mrs. Gravlee spoke in the place of Mrs. Musgrove who, on account of feeble health, was unable to deliver her address, Mrs. Gravlee's essay told of the work of the chapter, extolled the name of the Confederate soldier and exhorted those present to always cherish and protect the memorial erected as a tribute to the wearers of the gray.
 The speech of acceptance for Walker county by Solicitor w. c. Davis was of beautiful delivery. MT. Davis dwelt at some length on the part Walker county took in the Civil War Walker county" he said, "did not hesitate to do her part. With 600 voters she did wonderful work She furnished 1900 men. Even the boys went You couldn't keep them away"
 What did this mean?" he asked. Pa triotism and devotion to duty does not express it. Did they fight for what they thought was right? No; more. They fought for what they knew was right, under the constitution. They were not rebels; they were patriots
 He spoke in touching tones of the part the southern women had in the war; of their fortitudo, and concluded his speech with the acceptance and the words, q bow to you, Queens of the South" Harrison Greeted With Applause.
 When General Harrison arose to speak there was great and prolonged cheer- ing. General Harrison Spoke in simple words, in a beautiful style, and in tones that tugged at the heart-strings. The address was that of an orator.

NEVADA CONSOLIDATED BONDS.

The manner in which the bond IS
sue of Nevada Consolidated has been
made available to stockholders OF
the company appears to us as lib
eral arrangement, assuring hand
some returns to those who take ad-
vantage of it.
Among those acquainted with the
resources of Nevada Consolidated
and advised as to the high excellence
of the reduction plants which will
handle its ore. there is no shadow
of doubt but that this company will
in the course of few years be
among the leaders in the mining list,
as a dividend payer and highly at
tractive investment. There does not
seem any other possible outcome.
Those who take advantage of the
bond issue. the details of which are
fully set forth in recent circular
letter from the Offices of the company
and a copy of which was printed in
the News of yesterday morning. can
only make ly advantageous in
vestment of the money their stock
holdings will allow them to put in.
This is the view taken of the oppor-
tunity here on the ground, where is
best known the actual resources of
the company and where the best
Judgment may be formed as to the
real worth of these resources and the
feasibility of their being handled at
profit. no matter whether the present
price for copper remains to deal with
or whether 1t declines few cents. of
which there is no probability.

The patronage which the new
train service of the Nevada Northern
Is receiving is very gratifying, both
to the railroad and to those mer-
chants who benefit most from the
larger movement the people are en-
abled to. while the fact that they are
travelling on the trains is the best of
evidence that the service is appre-
ciated by the people of the district
who are served. To this time the
number of passengers carried has
been a surprise to the railroad REQ
pie. who did not expect half the
number. This has been. too, under
disagreeable weather conditions.
With return of the fair weather
which has marked practically all of
the winter. the travel will undoubt-
eddy make much gain.

FOR BIG
INCREASE IN
FURNACES
American Smelling Has
Much New Business
From Utah Copper and
Other Companies

4 SALT LAKE. Feb. 11.-Local cir
cles have been wondering during the
past few days how the Garfield smell
/ ter of the American Smelling and
Refining company will be able to take
charge of the additional burdens re-
Gently placed upon IL. During the
/ past two weeks this smelling COM
/ pany has entered into new contract
with the Utah Consolidated company.
under which 500 tons of ore day
will be shipped for a year from the
9Th of the current month. The Utah
Copper company is showing in its
concentrates at a LIBERAL gait from
its Garfield mill, and the Boston Con-
solidated company is just beginning
to make its influence felt. The New
house property likewise is faith
full contributor of copper ores TO the
new smelter on the point. These
several contracts do not take into
consideration the numerous other
shippers now sending in red metal
rock TO the American company.
The officials of the American COM
pany. however. do not appear to be
worried, and have the means of treat
ing this great tonnage or no such
contracts would have been entered
into. In this connection 1t will be
of interest to make mention of the
fact that the American Smelling and
Refining company is rushing to COM
pletion an additional 20 foot blast
furnace at Garfield, the capacity of
which will be 600 tons of ore daily,
which should be completed and in
commission within the coming 80
days
This will give the management
four blast furnaces, and four reyer-
beratory furnaces with which to
work. and General Manager C. w.
Whitley stated Monday morning that
the capacity of the plant will be be-
tween $500 and 1000 tons of ore
per day. Mr. Whitley stated that
the company was going to install one
of the largest blast furnaces in the |
country he plans for this new ore
eater are already prepared. These
plans call for a furnace of ~ feet in |
length, which will be capable of treat |
ing the handsome total of 500 tons !
of ore daily. Mr.. Whitley states that
there is one larger blast furnace than |
this projected one at the Anaconda /
-riantI
So, these new plans should help |
much toward relieving the new plant |
from any uncomfortable pressure in |
cident to the new business, and other
additions apparently seem the mat
ter of time only.

SERMONS OF MERIT BY
REV. G. |. HUNTING

At st. Bartholomew church Sun
day morning the Rev. G. c. Hunting
preached from the words, "0n these
two commandments hang all the law
and the prophets from Matthew
22:4o
There are two supreme laws ones
duty to God and ones duty to his
neighbor. At various times theolo-
gians have argued for one and at
others for another of these. In the
18th century the argument was en-
tirely for the first of these. Now We
seems to be exploiting the second.
We are doing much in the way of
slum work, theater services, trade
schools, college settlements and other
beneiactions. There is notion that
morality stands on a basis of its
own, and has no religious sanction
1t might seems as ii there were some
truth in this for We see many moral
just from choice. pure because they
hate lust. generous by instinct. Then
there is what is called the scientific
basis of morality Morality rests
ultimately on the experience of men.
Martineau says that Conscience Is
but inherited utility which has lost
her memory and changed her name
The answer to this. The fact of
the existence of morality at any time
or in any set of men is no proof of
| its origin. The fact that ii is of man
is no proof that it is from man His
/ tory shows that present ethical
/ standard dates from the preaching
/ and life of Jesus Christ Morality
+ apart from Jesus Christ loses its
/ force, witness the lives of George Ell
lot. and J. s. Mill and the writings of
/ the secular school Of poetry.
Morality cannot be scientific for
I then its results would end With the
objects, yet we know that t. conse-
quences do pass on and also revert
to another who is punished or re-
warded This instinct does Hot rest
on experience for the average ex-
perience is just to the contrary Take
i the two theories into the market

In 1t for Christ's sake than for the
sake of expedieney. Which would

Swallowed Cold lie Gould Not Hide.

Almost an ounce of small gold
nuggets were found to be imbedded
in the appendix of Samuel f. Graves,
who has just been operated on at
local hospital, after long suffering.
When he was shown the gold and
told where 1t came from, Graves ex
planned the mystery. Three years
ago he was engaged as a pick and
shovel man In the Guggenheimer
miner. near Katalla, Alaska. 1t is the
custom of mine operators TO guard
the pick and shovel men closely to
prevent them picking up any single
nugget they might chance to uncover.
Graves said he happened to strike
small pocket of nuggets, and yielding
to the temptation OF taking them, he
figured long and deep on the best
way to rob his employers and not be
discovered. He covered up the gold,
and each day for seven weeks swat
lowed q few of the tiny particles or
gold. In few months he grew Ill
and came back to Seattle, and ever
since has been sick until the opera
ton. Now he lays his long indispo-
sition to swallowing the stolen gold.

Judge Harmon and Governor Johnson
