TA1HAT is a church? The hon.
" estsexton tells: IT'S a tall
building, with tower and
bells.
That the churches in any COM
munity exercise a most potent in
fluence for good. is conceded by
all except the most rabid or blatant
infidel whose egotism and self con-
ceit blind his mind to the in
estimable value of Christianity.
But to what extent are the
churches valuable in this COM
munity? The Galilean teacher
said of his disciples: eye are
the light Of the world" eye
are the salt of the earth.' Hence,
if all His disciples are the light of
the world and the salt of the earth,
the logical as we'll as the scriptural
conclusion is that they are the light
of the community in which they
live.
These declarations. however, do
not preclude the possibility of the
light going out-being hid under
a bushel-or the salt losing it's
sadness. But certainly no reason
able or fair minded person would
accuse the churches of being wholly
composed of united bands of hyp
ocrites. For it matters not to what
extent sin, in it's many forms, may
prevail the ranks of any church,
you will find, within it's member
ship, consecrated men and women.
And it should be borne in mind
that it only requires few of the
above mentioned class to become
the light Of the community.
There is not man in Beach or
the Golden Valley, however in
different to the claims of Chris
tianity. would want to rear his fam
lily here if there were no churches
or church influence, for he at once
recognizes them as the guardians
of the morals of the community.
What would be the condition Of
this community at the end of the
next ten years if from now until
then the churches were closed?
And yet, with all the organized
lagencies of the churches, the devil

Prof. c. j. N. Nelson, who took
charge of the school last Septem-
Der, is an able instructor and class
organizer. He is giving entire
satisfaction and, although working
under many difficulties, has organ
lied and graded the school so that
it is now the best in the entire
county.
E. E. Dickinson, P. C. Erickson
and F. E. Near are the present
members Of the board of education.
These gentlemen are sparing moth
ing to make the Beach school the
very best and they deserve consid-
cradle credit for so ably represent
ing the community in getting the
school started.
For our remuneration for this
outlay Of time and money we shall
look for the social and civic right
eousness of the young people who
grow up to assume citizenship.

- CHURCHES
They Play an Important Part in the upbudng Of New Country

too frequently holds high carnival.
What might we expect if wholly
Invested of these good iflnuences?
The high moral standing of our
locality is due to the fact that it
has been permeated by Christian
influence and education, such as we
have radiated from the various
church organizations. The Con-
gregational, Lutheran and Catholic
churches have strong organiza-
tions throughout the Valley.
Beach has two fine churches COM
pleted and one in the course of con-
struction, representing these re-
spective branches Of the church.
There is also large Catholic church
at Burkey, country postoffice II
miles south of town, and at Sen
tinel Butte fine new Congrega-
tional church has just been dedi-
Gated.
Rev. Father Van den Heuvel
presides over the Catholic churches,
Rev. Alex Douglas, the Congrega-
tional, and Rev. C. S. Thorpe, the
Lutheran.

get a picture taken of it and con-
sequently had nothing to make a

ONLY One DEAD
Miners Imprisoned in Mid VAL
ley C0Iliery We're Rescued
This Morning
One DEAD in CHUTE

Shamokin, Pa, Feb 1S.-Ail but
one of the twenty-eight men and boys
who were entombed yesterday in the
Mid-Valley colliery, We're rescued this
morning. Frank Orlaskie, a miner,
fell down a chute after the accident,
and was killed.
The men were entombed by Il num-
Der of pillars of coal running, causing
a gangway to close in. When the
miners were imprisoned they gathered
in a long, well ventilated gallery and
made plans as to the best means Of
digging their way through the block
ade. The men had picks and shovels
and began work without delay. The
imprisoned men heard sharp raps on
the steam pipe running through the
drift and felt certain of being rescued.
When the rescuing party penetrated to
the entOmbed men it, was found that
the men had dug for a great distance
through the fall of coal. There were
but few persons at the entrance to the
drift when the rescued men reached the
surface. The men quickly went home,
showing no i'll effect of their exper-
ience

BOMBS EXPLODED
And This Gave Bum0r 10 Story
That King Alfonso Was
ASSasSinated.


Madrid, Feb 1S.-There is no
truth in the report current in Paris
last night that King Alfonso had
been assassinated. The rumor prob
ably was an outgrowth of the bomb
explosions at Barcelona yesterday,
which now appear to have been the
work of anarchists. In addition to
killing one woman and dangerously
wounding another and a child, the
explosions caused much damage to
neighboring buildings.
The precise object of the outrages
has not yet been made clear, but 1t
is interesting to note that the fac
tions of the parliamentary opposi-
ton recently united in request to
the government to restore the con-
stitutional guarantee in Barcelona,
declaring that normal conditions pre-
vailed there.
King Alfonso is at present at Sc
vile.

SHIP ENGULFED
Huge Wave Swept Everything
Off The Decks Of Steamer
81 Andrew
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE

New York, Feb 1S.-While the
steamer st Andrew from Antwerp
for this port was plowing her way
through stormy seas east of the
banks of Newfoundland, last Friday,
she was all but engulfed in a huge
wave which suddenly swept down
upon her. The wall of water swept
in over the bows, passed high above
the crows nest, which is part way
up the foremast, and filled the decks
fore and aft, sweeping everything
before it. So great was the force
of the blow that the big ship was
brought to a dead stop and for the
moment while she staggered help
lessly it was feared by some of those
on board that she would founder.
Everything movable was swept away
by the irresistible rush of waters.
Cattle fittings were torn out the life
boats were filled and flood of
water swept into the stoke hold.
Fortunately no one on the steamer
was injured, but the decks, and even
the stoke hold far below bear many
marks of the battering the steamer
suffered. The story of their terrify-
ing experience was told by the Off
GERS of the vessel which arrived here
to-day.

DEAD in THE HOLD
Faithful Blue Jacket Fell Though
an UDgusrded Companion
way on Cruiser

San Francisco, Feb 1S.-As the
result of the negligence of ship
mate in not placing guard in front
of the opening of companionway
from which the ladder had been re-
moved, Grover Cleveland Chapman,
a bluejacket on the navy auxiliary
cruiser Buffalo now lying at anchor
in Man-o'-War row, fell to his death
yesterday down the steamers for
ward hold. His body was taken to
Mare Island, where it will be held
until his family's wishes are known
as to it's disposition. Chapman rated
on the Buffalo as baker, second
class. He entered the navy at st
Louis, November 25, 1904, and for
the whole period of his almost COM
pleted enlistment his record stands
clear of error. His father, SIS.
Chapman, lives at Newport, Ind.
Captain Pond ordered rigid in
vestigation into the circumstances
surrounding Chapman's death.

Companies of That City.

Chicago, Feb 1S.-The city of Chi
cago will get $633 ,S31 as its share of
the net earnings of the City Railway

year.
Figured on the accepted basis that
the Chicago city will furnish two
fifths and the Chicago Railway COM
pany three-fifths of what the city will
get altogether from the traction COM
panies, this means a total of s1,6S7,-
800 as the citys annual income from
the two traction companies under the
new ordinances.
President Thomas E. Mitten of the
City Railway company, in his first re-
port to his stockholders at their

of its net earnings to the city and still
make plenty of money.
