The New Testament From Memory.

The New Testament From Memory.
Today the Bible is the best men,
Drized book in the world, and no doubt
it could be entirely reconstructed from
the minds of its students. One young
woman alone could dictate the New
Testament. She is Miss Leste May
Williams of North Carolina, now 20
years old. Some time ago Rev. j. A.
Grendall, pastor of the local Baptist
church, offered prize for memoriztng
verses of Scripture.
On the day of the award Miss Will
liams had committed and recited to
the committee 1926 verses of Scrip
ure, covering the entire New Testa-
ment excepting the two genealogies OF
Jesus in the first chapter of Matthew
and the third chapter of Luke, and in
Guiding liberal selections from
Genesis, Psalms, Ecclesiastes, and
other parts of the Old Testament The
New Testament itself contains 1858
verses and 10000 words.

Indian Superstition.

Dying to order is one of the most
sacred customs of the American In
dian. Thirty years ago Standing Elk
came to Maj. James Mclaughlin, the
author of MY Friend, the Indian"
and said: Father, my wife will die to-
day, and she wants coffin from you"
The major asked him what the all
ment was, and he replied: Just moth
ing, but she heard the ghosts calling
and must CO." Somebody had told
her, it turned out, that she was sick.
SO she had painted for death and
all her relatives had gathered about
her to bemoan her-and incidentally
to divide her property as soon as she
was dead. There was no use in the
major arguing about 1t, so he had the
coffin made. In many cases those
painted for death" are actually bull
lied into dying, but Mrs. Standing Elk
was still too vigorous. Finally in
despair she carried the coffin into the
house on her own shoulders, ana sew
eral years later the major saw it still
standing on end in her house. Shelves
had been fitted into 1t and 1t was do

THE TERRIBLE BATHoLITE.
Molten Rock That Borss Upward
Through tho Earth's Crust.

Molten Rock That Borss Upward
Through tho Earth's Crust.
Batholite is term invented by the
great German geologist Eduard Suess
to describe the gigantic intrusions of
molten rock which. according to him.
bore their way upward through the
crust Of the earth from the eternal
strata and folds of the mountains very
much as. white hot soldering iron
may be thrust through Il plank. burn
ing its way across the grain of the
wood as il it were cheese.
These batholites Turk deep in the
sands Of degrees. and gradually melt
their way to the surface above them.
Generally they issue in the form of
tremendous domes of hot rock. tower
ing up to mountain heights and often
giving birth to volcanoes. When
batholite. as sometimes happens, does
not reach the surface its roof opens
in network of assures, lava pours
out and whole group of volcanoes
appears at that point.
Suess has recognized the remains of
many cooled batholites on various
parts Of the earth's surface and lie
says that the consolidated crust of the
earth, even at the present day. may
be exposed to these mighty intrusions
from below. The batholites bring up
with them many metals from the in
terror OF the planet. and rich mines
are often opened in the bikes that are
thus formed.
Suess describes the rock about Boul-
der. Colo. as an ancient batholite,
which covers 5000 square klometers
Of surface. But there are others still
more prodigious in extent.
Sometimes they have been worn
down nearly to the general level but
near Elkhorn the old batholite vet
towers up TO an elevation of 5000 feet
above the sen. The diamond bikes Of
South Africa have thus been thrust up
from the profound depths Of the earth,
where there exists Ii laboratory of M
/ ture In which she performs what seem
miracles to the petty inhabitants of
the planets surface.
The face of the moon shows us most
/ clearly what batholites are capable of.
The vast circular plains ringed with
steep mountains. which make its sur
! face so marvellous 10 look upon with II
telescope. have, according to this view.
/ been formed by intrusons of colossal
batholites. and Suess calls them by
the startling name of smelling fur
naces'-furnaces thousands Of square
miles in extent--in which the frame
of that little world has been melted
and dissolved like Il snow bank lying
4 in the path of flow of molten iron.
And if we could remove the sedi-
mentary accumulations of ages from
the face of our world. says this aston
fishing German savant we might find
now hidden under our feet a network
of the scared skeletons of ancient
batholites. grander than any on the
moon.-Garrett p. Serviss in New

DRAWING PLANS FOR THE
WABUSKA SHELTER

According to Mr.. Gum the plans
for the adjustment of the finances OF
the company nave been agreed upon.
AT present there is an authorized issue
OF 1000, 900 shares of stock al a par
value of ST. each. This stock has been
selling in the market around 81 per
share. The plan of the company is
TO raise the par value of the stock
from 81 to So, which will give the
company an authorized stock issue OF
100000 shares, Instead of 100000. In
addition, the company will issue $l,OoO,-
600 in bonds, convertible into stock at
mar. and which will be offered the
stockholders at par, 100000 shares OF
stock being placed in the treasury to
nrovide for the conversion of bonds.
Just as soon as the plans for the plant
are finished the contracts VIII DE
awarded and the work started. Inc
smelter will have a capacity of from
500 to 500 tons daily and of the latest
mctbods of construction. The grading
for the plant has practically been
completed. The plant Will cost IN the
neighborhood of 100000 which Will
leave $4,000 in the treasury for de-
velopment purposes. The plant VIII
handle custom ores as wen as INC
ores from the Mason Valley. 1t Is
probable that if the tonnage cxceeus
this amount the plant will be enlarged
The engineers of the company de
clare that at present there is better
than 100000 tons of ore reserves IN tn
mine and that this is being added u
each day.

His only recours would be to obtain
his release by a writ of habeas cor
pus. However, should Stowe make this
attempt and be successful, he would
no doubt be rearrested before he could
leave the courtroom.
For some time the present officers of
the company have been convinced
that a large amount of the iewelry ore
he'd been stolen, and at considerable ex-
pense have had a force of trained de.
t%ectives at work running down the sus-
poets. Stowe, who was the compaDy's
bookkeeper before the Peltons assum-
ed charge last fall, has been under con
slant surveillance since leaving the en-
ploy of the company, and the officers
claim that they have a sure case
against him.
AS soon as Stowe has been safely
landed behind the bars of the Hum
boldt county Jail, other sensational ar
rests are expected to follow in quick
succession.

DUNLAP resigns
FROM MONTANA
T0NOPAH

TONOPAH, Feb. 16.-R, p. Dunlap,
vice president and director of the
T~onopah Montana Mining company
yesterday rendered his resignation at
the regular monthly meeting held at
the company's office. Mr.. Dunlap has
been with the company since it's in
~ception and has served Since that time
either as an officer OF director and
has always worked for the interests
of the concern. His resignation came
as a surprise, but it was accepted by
the board.
When questioned last evening why
he had taken this action, Mr.. Dunlap
stated: ooh, it is the result of a dis
agreement over ~recompense for SER
vices. For five years | have worked
for the interests of Montana Tonopab
without a cents remuneration, because
the company was not in a condition 20
nav for it. Now that it is out of debt,
with a goodly surplus on hand, asked
for proper compensation. The amount
voted by the board as representing
their estimate of the value of my SER
vices was so infinitesimal that could
not give my consent to work for il
and retain my self respect, and there
fore | resigned. However, permit me
to say that any man who is SO fooilsh
as TO work for other people for MOTH
inc deserves what he gets, for 1t is
never appreciated"
Questioned as to his future move
ments, Mr.. Dunlap stated that he had
as vet formed no plans.
