character of Jesus Christ is all EN-
Dodiment of the laws of the Spirit
nal world. He is the WORD
MADE FLESH" His life is an
of the laws OF the
Universe governing our relation to
God and our fellow men. His eH-
ample emphasized his wolds ana
our duty. Il came not to be
ministered unto but to minister
b. The teaching of Christ is clear
and unmistakable. His answer TO
the man who asked what was the
greatest commandment was, love
God, and your neighbor as your
self" And when asked who is
my neighbor he gave the parable
of.the Good Samaritan to teach us
that every fellow-man is our neigh
Dor.
He gave the parable of the Rich
Fool to teach us how the natural
impulses of selfshness and disre-
gard of others bring us under the
condemnation of Heaven, for,
says the inspired James, whose
hath this worlds goods and seeth
his brother have need and shutteth
I'D his bowels of compassion from
him how dwelleth the love OF God
in him.
Then Christ gave the story OF
the Rich Man and Lazarus to teach
that the violation of the laws OF
benevolence results in the misery
of enernal thirst. And in his
vivid picture of the final separation
of the sheep from the goats we find
that benevolence is the judgment
test of character. Those who go
away into everlasting punishment
are those who simply fail to minis
ter to Christ in the person of the
the hungry and the suffer
ing. 1t is not question OF good
ness and badness, but the question
of selhshneas, which lies at the
root of all badness, and of benevo-
lence which is the spring Of all
goodness.
Now in view of these clear teach
ings do we not see that we ARE
our brothers. keeper, and the ques-
ton God puts to us today is
WHERE is THY BROTHER?
Where, spiritually, is thy brother
and sister out there in this town in
the destructive paths Of sin and
ruin? Where is thy brother and
sister in the slums of the great
cities'
Don't say they are no brothers
and sisters of mine. In view of
the clear teaching of nature and
revelation God holds us response
BILE to do what we can to check
their downward progress to wretch
edness and ruin.
Where is thy brother in China,
in India, in Japan and Africa Are
you doing anything to rescue them
from wretchedness and ruin? There
is a round billion of them. They
are dying at the rate of a hundred
thousand day. | say not where
they are going, but | do say in the
light of nature and revelation that
they are UNFIT for Heaven, into
which nothing is permitted to enter
that worketh abominatiop or
maketh lie. The Christian
Church which has the men, the
money, the gift of prayer and the
open door of opportunity is respon-
sible for the Christianization of the
world.

PROCEEDINGS PENDING IN
 BANKRUPTCY ACTION

Bankruptcy proceedings against the Reynolds-Alaska Development Com pany and the Reynolds bank were brought before the court at Valdez. Judge Reid allowed the motion to con- solidate the two petitions, and pending the decision in the matter of bank ruptcy, appointed E. E. Ritchie re- ceiver, stating that the present reve- nues from the company's property are suuandered. The bankruptcy case will be tried as soon as possible, but probably not before the October term of court. Attorney Ingersoll for Rey- holds, during his argument said that H. D. Reynolds diSsipated $5OO,OOO of the funds of the development company and was evidedtly insane. Creditors suing represent $lll,OOO. The com pany's property in Valdez is valued at S2OO, ,OOO, and the monthly income from rentals is $SOO.-Seattle Times.

SAMOANS DEPICTING TO
 CHANGE IN GOVERNMENT

San Francisco-Advices from Tutu- fla, Samoa, state that the Samoans anticipate with some anxiety the es- tablishment of civil form of govern ment. It is the desire of the chiefs to maintain the present system of govern ment, and hearing of the application made to congress to establish civil government they are about to present petition to the president praying that no change be made at the present time. After stating present conditions in Samoa, the petitioners ask "that the system of administration of the islands which was introduced upon the annexation to the United States be continued until such time as majority of the Samoan people can understand and realize the system of governemnt in vogue in the United States"

Remarkable Discovery

A discovery of remarkable Egypto- logical interest has been made by Mir. Theodore NJ. Davis at Thebes, by the excavation of the tomb of Queen Tele, one of the greatest names in ancient Egyptian history, since she was the mother of the famous Amenhotep ", the heretic king of the eighteenth dy- nasty. The tomb of this royal person age was found to bear the marks of the religious zealots, who carefully re- moved therefrom every trace of the peculiar pantheistic monotheism she endeavored to introduce into the coun- try. The doorway, consisting of piled stones, sealed with the royal seal, was found to have been broken down, the huge wooden doors torn from their hinges, the catafalque torn to pieces and the mummitied corpse itself turned over in order to erase the name of Amenhotep ", which was originally inscribed upon tbe sheet of gold upon which the body reposed. When exca- vated the tomb was found to still bear all these traces of the zeal of the reli- gionists. effected during the period in which the country was in the throes of a religious revolution long before the time of Moses-Portland Tele- gram.

So Far a Success

W. Morgan Sinister, formerly col lector for the port of Manila, now a member of the Philippine Commission and secretary of the Board of Public Instruction, says that the Philippine congress so far has been a success. The native legislators have accepted their responsibilities in proper spirit and such laws as they have enacted are good.
 "The Philippines" he continued, ''need chance to sell their sugar, to- bacco and other products in the United States. They also need capital to de- velop their resources, but will get neither until the tariff is modified in favor of the islands.
 "In spite of all obstacles, however, wonders have been done in the islands, especially in and about Manila. We have now a good water supply, scien- tific sanitation, a good lighting and streetcar service and first-class ship ping facilities. The harbors have been improved, and when the tariff gives them a chance the islands will be ready to take it."-Ex.

New Road to the Pacific

A new highway to the Pacific slope will be open within the next three months when the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railroad from Aberdeen, S.. D., to Tacoma, Washington, is put in operation.
 At the present moment it looks as though the two armies of workmen having the building of the road in hand will meet, one working east and the other west, about May l5.
 This means another great avenue to to the Golden West, through one of the richest sections of the country, through almost virgin fields and prai- ries, forests and mining country.
 The section through which the new extension will traverse, while it for a great distance parallels the Northern Pacific railroad in it's general line of direction, cuts farther into the north west country where, to reach the old line road, it was necessary to make long travel across almost impossible country, rugged, wild, dangerous. The new road will traverse one of the richest sections of the United States, whether the viewpoint be that of scen- cry or commerce.

AMERICAN COMPANY MAKES
 RICH STRIKE IN SIBERIA

American prospectors have pene- trated the wildS of Siberia, and after several years of persistent work, have uncovered pay placer diggings. The new gold field in the czar's domain is located across Boring sea from Nome and is undoubtedly continuation Of the same gold belt.
 Information concerning this gold discovery comes in letter from a leading official of the Siberian Devel- opment Company, to friend in Val dez, and the news is therefore authen- tic. The original discovery was made by L. c. P. Nadeau, on a creek named for him, and is on watershed of the Anadir river, flowing into Boring sea. The find was made last season and S4OOO in gold was mined from dis covery claim by the most primitive method. Other prospectors found good prospects on neighboring creeks. The news reached Nome and a number of miners immediately sailed for the new Eldorado. Forty-one men wintered at Anadir. They are equipped with thawing plants, drills, etc., for expe- ditious prospecting and will undoubt- edly show up some rich pay streaks.
 At the mouth of the Anadir river is a Cossack station, with force of twen- ty-five men. Some 300 miles up this magnificent stream a penal colony is located
 The Siberian Development Company has trading station near the mouth of the Anadir and does profitable business trading with the Eskimos of the region. Prospector.

OREGON RANCHE FINDS
 LONG LOST GOLD LEDGE

In lS4S. James Shefflin, after pros- pecting two years in the rough Ump- qua mountains of Douglas county, Oregon, came across a two-foot vein of free milling gold, broke off samples and carried them to his cabin, where he banned the stuff. Enough yellow metal to show that the vein was a rec ord breaker remained in the bottom ot the pan. Unable to endure the excite ment of suddenly acquiring riches, Sheffiin dropped dead. Thus he was found later, the pan of gold still in his hand: his mortar and pestle near by. Heart failure had robbed him of frui- tion.
 Since that time scores of prospectorS have, off and on, haunted the Ump- quas, looking for the lost Shefliln vein. Thousands of dollars were spent; a total of half century of time lost. The mountains for miles around were vainly combed.
 B. M. Armitage, a Douglas County resident, has recently founnd that yein.-EX.

A Million Men rluSt Die

There is now beginning in British India a great and devastating famine It has been preceded by a winter of growing scarcity and high prices within the Punjab, in the region about Allahabad, Lucknow, Cawnpore, Bena- res and Agra, and in parts of Rajpu- tana and the Central Provinces.
 Though long forseen, the famine IS inevitable. No foresight can avert it, no generosity can prevent from per ishing of starvation vast numbers of people. "A million or more" is the advance estimate of Benjamin Aitken. How many more will depend upon the extent to which plague rages among the emaciated victims. March, April and May are three worst months, un' less the June rains fail to bring fresh fodder and vegetables.-The World.
