SO far as We can learn no reply has
yet been received from the mine OPP
orators association of Goldfield in re-
gard to the demand made upon them
regarding the aboiishing OF the card
system in that camp.
\ dispatch from Goldfie!d last night
stated that William H. Erb, secretary
OF the Mine Operators Association
stated that the opposition to the po-
lice bill unless operators agreed to
stop violating the statute of 1903
came as an entire surprise. Other
operators say likewise and point 20

bill in the assembly Friday.

THE STATE LAW
Following is the present law on the
statute books of the state and while
it has been repeatedly stated that it
is unconstitutional in many respects,
at the same time it has never been
proven so by the courts of the state.
1t is under this law that the mem
bers of the assembly are demanding g
that the operators in the GOldfield
district do away entirely with the
card system now in use there and ii
is believed that the measure will not
be acted upon in the lower house un-
til the operators make signed state
ment as to what action in the matter
they intend to take.
An anser should be heceived by
the legislature by Monday and if such
is the case the bill will come up on
that day for it sfinal passage.

firing the fatal shot through one of

THE CHURCH AND THE WORLD.
Secular Religion a Feature Of Present
Day, Says Professor.

The world can no longer be consid-
cred as q sphere OF human life, sepa-
rate from or antagonistic to the
church. Too much religion has got
ten out OF the church into the world
to allow us to think of all the good
being in the church, and of the world
as being nothing but evil. Religion
is taking On secular, in distinction
from exclusively ecclesiastical, forms
of expression. There is coming to
be world church, having a religious
consciousness to which nothing that
is common to man is foreign, and in
sacrificial service for all the world.
We have builded better than we
know. Our philanthropies and re-
forms have sanctified the secular.

CHINESE KITES ARE WONDERS.
One Ingenious Device Was Made to
Represent a Huge centlped.

Probably the most wonderful and
ingenious achievement of a Chinese
kitemaker is designed to represent
gigantic centiped, says a writer in the
World To-day. This is unQuestionably
the longest and most fantastic amuse-
ment device that has ever been con-
structed for aerial flight. From head
to tail it measures nearly 40 feet, and
is made to field up accordionlike. The
fierce large head Of the creature, with
long protruding horns, huge eyes and
gaping mouth, forms the front of the
kite. This is the gem and marvel of
the whole collection and entirely new
to the eyes of the western world.
It's construction is as follows: Ex-
tending from head to tail and consti-
tu''ng the body portion are series of
bamboo sticks running crosswse to
the center, to which are fastened 25
or more pasteboard disks foot or
more in diameter. These are painted
in circles of black, yellow and white,
representing the all-secing eyes Of this
NEUROLOGICAL creature. A tail portion
Of narrow strips is fastened to the
last piece of bamboo. BY a mechanical
continuance the curved pieces of paste
board forming the eyes are made to
revolve by the wind while the kite is
being flown. Seen in the air, the SER
pentinelille motion, it's huge glaring
eyes swiftly twirling in their sockets,
the effect is said to be astonishingly
realistic, producing quite an awe-in
spring scene, to the Chinese mind at
least. While being flown a cord is at
tached to three or more points of it's
length, In order to keep it under cen
troll. In strong wind, several men
are required 30 hold the reel Un-
doubtedly we have here one of the
first and most ancient patterns of fly
