FOOD FOR THOUGHT
BY J. X. II.

Make up your mind that whatever
you may have done in the past you
will in the future wear your clouds
inside out, and show the lining" We
all have clouds, but that is no reason
why we should draw the attention of
the world to them. 1t is the brave,
cheerful soldiers who inspire the 9th
ers. So if you can't get what you
like, determine to like what you have
or at all events make the best of it
and go on your way bravely, without
complaining.
There must be some life in the boy
or he will not rise under any circum-
stances until the day appointed for the
resurrection of the dead. If he starts
out in life as failure he will end as
one unless he gets thoroughly waken-
ed up in some way. Give every boy
and girl fair chance and reasonable
encouragement, and do not condemn
them even because of large degree
of downright stupidity; for many 80
called good-for-nothing boys, block
heads, numskulls, dullards, or ounces,
were only boys out of their places.
round boys forced into square holes.
A man or woman may lead a life of
honesty and purity. battling bravely
for all they hold dearest, SO firm and
So: of the rightness of their life that
they never think for an instant of the
'diabolical ingenuity that makes evil
and evil report where naught but
good really exists. A few words
lightly spoken by the tongue of SIAN
der, a significant expression of the
eyes, a cruel shrug of the shoulders,
with a pursing of the nps-and then
friendly hands grow cold, the accus-
toned smile is displaced by a sneer
and she stands alone and aloft with
a dazed feeling of wonder at the
vague, intangible something that has
caused it all.
Much of the so-called friendship of
the day is but pretense. 1t exists
only in name and as soon as it ceases
to be advantageous it is dropped. The
friendship that continues the same
in prosperity and adversely is to be
priced, all other kinds are worthless.
1t matters not how hard man may
struggle to do right and make sue
cess of life there is always some
loathsome reptile. some worthless
wretch who is ready to drag him
down, to blight his hopes and blast
his fondest ambitions. The loss of
money and property is not the great
est loss a man can sustain in the bus
mess world; far better to lose your
money than to lose hope and am
bition.
One hour day withdrawn from
frivolous pursuits. and profitably en-
ployed, would enable any man of ordi.
nary capacity to master a complete
science. One hour day would make
an ignorant man well informed man
in ten years. One hour day would
earn enough to pay for two daily and
two weekly papers,two leading maga-
zines and dozen good books. In an
hour day boy or girl could read
twenty pages thoughtfully-over sew
en- thousand pages or eighteen large
volumes in a year. An hour day
might make all the difference be-
tween bare existence and useful, hap
py living. An hour day might make
nay. has made an unknown man a
famous one, useless one a bene-
fcctor to his race. Consider, then.
the mighty possibilities of two, four.
yes, six hours a day that are, on the
average. thrown away by some of our
young men and women In their de-
sire for fun and diversion.

ISSUE
IN EVIDENCE

TORONTO, Ont, Nov. 15.-The
question of labor and the saloon was
discussed yesterday afternoon by la
Dor leaders at big mass meeting in
Massey's hall. The Rev. Charles
Stelzle, a fraternal delegate to the
convention of the American Fedora
tion of Labor from the federal coun-
Gil of the churches of Christ OF
America, presided and made the prin-
cipal address. Otner speakers in
cluded Vice President John Mitchell
and Treasurer Federation of Labor
and President Thomas L. Lewis of
the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea.
Mr.. Lennon said the liquor busi-
ness lowers the efficiency of working
men and prophesied that the time
would come when labor would be ar
rayed against the saloon.
The United Mine Workers, Mr..
Lewis said, had prohibited their
members from selling intoxicants
even at picnics.
Mr.. Stelzle declared that the sa-
loon and the labor hall must be di-
vorced. "In too many Cities" he
said, trades unionists are COM
PEELED to pass through the saloon to
get to their meeting places, and woe
betide the man who does not stop to
take a drink. Many workingmen
of America are helplessly in the
power of these hall owners.

1t was learned yesterday through
a telegram from Salt Lake that E..
w. Griffiths had completed the pre-
liminary steps for organization of a
stock company on the ground which
he recently acquired for himself and
associates adjoining Mcdonald Ely
and Ely Calumet properties.
The new company will be known
as the Ely Centennial. The prompt
incorporation made following the ac-
quirement of the ground last week,
in quick time after Mr.. Griffiths had
decided upon it's desirability as a
copper property, gives every encour-
agement for belief that he will car
ry out his other indicated plans for
putting three shifts at work on Ge-
the property and for placing the
stock issue on the curb.
Mr.. Griffiths is expected back in
the city tonight from oalt Lake and
will Immediately begin getting things
in shape on the new property for the
active work which is promised and
which should soon give more mining
life to the hills Immediately at Ely
tnan witnessed in a long time. 1t is
understood that sinking will be the
principal manner of development and
for this the way is well shown by
frequent cuts along the main ledge,
for a distance of 1900 feet, in all of
which pay ore shows, while in shaft
down 40 feet on the vein there is ore
all the way.
The identity of the Griffiths In
terests is unknown here in full ex-
tent, and has been a matter of
much speculation, but it is known to
include Colorado and Utah men who
have dividend payers to their credit
and who have dropped quietly into
more than one district and picked up
property upon which their subse-
quent operations have been fast and
successful. That there is like pro-
gram to be followed here is indicated
by all movements that have been
made to date, these including a sub
stantial cash payment on the ground
in closing the DEAL The Griffiths
purchase has had effect of creating
live interest in the range along to the
east from it. Properties there are
being looked up with new enthusiasm
and it was stated yesterday that an
other deal for ground was on, the
Johnson claims being involved
, and papers, it is said, signed in con-
nection with initial steps having to
do with transfer to new interests.
From other indications which are
present it would not be surprising II

JAMAICA IN

HAVOC-EARTHQUAKES
ESCAPED so FAR AS
is NOW KNOWN.

KINGSTON, Jamaica, Nov. 15.-
After torrential rains lasting many
days normal weather conditions pre-

the extent of damage done by one
of the worst storms in Jamaica's his.
tory. Practically all telegraph lines
are down, and railroads have beer
badly washed out.
While the entire eastern portion
of the island was swept by winds an6
, rains, no earth shocks occurred, ant
damage to crops and property re
suited largely from floods. Report!
from st. Mary, an important banani
center, state that within a radius q
ten miles of Port Maria, banana field
were entirely laid waste. The town
of Annette Bay for time was three
feet under water. Grave fears were
entertained for several days re
garding the safety of inhabitants o
that section, but the floods are nov
subsiding. So far as can be learn
ed no lives were lost.
The cables to Colon and Bermuda
are still out of commission, and at
tempts made by the coastal steam
er Arna to carry cable dispatches to
Holland Bay on Wednesday nigh
failed, heavy gales compelling the
vessel to return. The Arna startec
yesterday on another attempt. Il
is not known here whether the cable
to Santiago is intact.
Kingston did not suffer to an.
great extent from the hurricane
which developed one hundred miles
to the westward and which had losi
much of its fury by the time II
reached here.
The northern side of the island
suffered severely, and engineers es
innate that it will be ten days be-
fore railroad communication is re-
established. Sources of the Kings
ton water supply are cut off, and
military authorities are assisting the
local engineering staff in the con-
struction Of temporary conduits.

on November 1, is the strange ex-
perience of F. NJ. Stipp, a widower,
living at North Yakima. who sought
to file an action for a divorce in the
superior court of Yakima county.
The complaint was not filed for the
reason that Stipp had no counsel and
the prosecuting attorney would not
order the clerk of courts to put it on
record. Stipp alleges that he does
not know the name of his wife. also
disclaiming having acquiesced in the
proceedings. He says the ceremony
was performed while he was seated
in the hotel parlor reading. Three
men and a woman entered the parlOr
and went through a marriage cere-
mony in which he was made the
bridegroom. The party left the room
soon afterward and he has not seen
the men or woman since. but fears
an Interior motive in the strange ac-
ton of the quartet. His former wife
died 90 years ago, and, he declares,
he has no desire to marry the sec
ond time, but II he does he wants
to know something about his wife,
at least to become familiar with her
name.
