YOUR DIAMOND NINE.


Doubtless you have heard Conway's
lecture on Acres of Diamonds"
This is the story briefly: A fortune
hunter went far and wide in search of
a diamond mine. He returned home
after many years. having failed. Oae
day he dug in his back yard and found
his mine.
The moral is. Of course. that fortune
waits for you not in some far dis
tant place. but in your own back yard.
Here is another illustrations:
Robert S. Seeds. driven out of BUSH
ness by i'll health. moved to an aban-
doned farm in Pennsylvania, which
the owner gave up because he could
not raise anything but rocks"
When Seeds moved to the place the
neighbors snickered
And Bob Seeds wife sat down on
the doorstep OF the farmhouse and
cried.
She read the big advertisements
about Roseville down south or Boom
town out west, where you could get
rich quick on an acre or so, and she
wanted Bob to emigrate
Meantime Seeds scratched away in
the rocky place Just for his health"
but he did lot of reading about soils
and a lot Of thinking for himself. And
he got so busy making things grow
that he forgot about his health-which
is a good way to get it.
To the surprise Of the neighbors Bob
Seeds made that farm one Of the most
fertile spots in Pennsylvania.
People rubbed their eyes when they
went past his farm. And then every
body wanted to know how it was
done.
Letters came requesting information
They kept coming. and Bob Seeds had
to charge fee for telling how. He
hired a stenographer. but she couldn't
keep up. Bob raised his fee.
Finally he had to go on the lecture
platform. so insistent was the call
And when he delivered his lectures
the farmers wanted to know more
about his system. So he had to write
a book. entitled How God Made the
Soil Fertile
And Bob's wife cries no more on
the doorstep, and she is glad her hus-
band did not migrate.
Moral-Do not go seeking diamonds
at the end of some long rainbow Dig
in your back yard.

Tho Salt In the Sea.

The Pythaeoreans held that the sea
was salt by reason of the tears shed by
kronos, father Of Zeus. According to
the old Hebraic tradition, the ocean
was originally a great body Of fresh
water. but which was made salt by the
abundant tears of the fallen angels.
One sect of Buddhists believe that
Lots wife-that is to say. the pillar Of
salt" which was once the wife of the
humble gentleman named above-lies
at the bottom of the ocean in Il certain

the waters of all oceans flow through
that narrow channel. The Talmudic

HOUSE HOLDS A
SHORT SESSION
EARLY ADJOURNMENT PRoBA-
BLY, SAVED FROM DEFEAT
RESOLUTION CHANGING DATE
OF PRESIDENTIAL INAuGURA-
TlONS.
BY Associated Press.

Washington, Jan. 14.-An unexpect-
ed early adjournment of the house to-
day probably saved from defeat the
resolution changing the date of the
presidential inaugurations. Led by
Perkins, of New York, the opponents
of the resolution were showing un-
suspected strength, when, fearful lest
he would /, not muster enough votes
to secure the required two-thirds ma
iority for the adoption of the resolu-
5tion, in the absence of several mem
bers of the committee to support it,
Henry, of Texas, it's author, made o
point of no quorum, just before the
speaker ordered the doors closed and
the absentees brought in, motion
was made to adjourn, which was car
ried without opposition.
The first hour of today's session
was devoted to reading the presi-
dents conservation message. The
senate was not in session today.

Washington, Jan. 14.-The dove of
peace is lowering near the perch to-
day on the field occupied by the war
ring Republican factions of the house.
When Hayes, of California, mediator
for the insurgents" returned to the
house after one of his frequent calls
upon President Taft, the news was cir
culated rapidly that a truce had been
arranged. This was confirmed when
statement from the White House
and another from Dwight, the Repub-
lican whip, announcing details of an
armistice, was issued. The peace pro-
nunciamento proved to be premature,
however, for Hayes announced that no
agreement had been reached and the
matter will go over until tomorrow
Then the "insurgents" issued a state
ment saying IAN understanding has
been reached" The Hayes statement
follows:
An understanding has been reached
that we shall attend caucus about to
be held to choose Republican members
of the investigating committee on the
Ballinger-Pinchot question. OF future
conferences, however, there has been
no agreement. OF course, the agree
ment affects in no way the issue as to
control of the house."
Democrats of the house announced
today that they will caucus Saturday
night to select minority members of
the committee to investigate the Bal
linger-Pinchot affair.

TWO WOMEN LEFT ALONE At
THE LIGHT HOUSE PUT UP The
DISTRESS SIGNAL, WHICH WAS
SIGHTED BY THE CREW OF THz
SMACK, AND THUS ONE NAM
WHO WAS THEN IN THE RREAK,

Down on the coast Of Mexico, abouS
forty miles out at sea, is the Arenas
light house, operated by the Mexican
government, and there, in distress, II
lone light house keeper with two
helpless women. Upon him devolves
the responsibility of keeping the light
going, and should his strength become
exhausted and the light extinguished,
many vessels passing along the route
from Vera Cruz to the United States
may strike upon the treacherous rocks
and go down. The keeper has called
for assistance from the Mexican gov
ernment, but before that assistance
arrives he may give up the unequal
fight, for it requires three men to do
the work.
This story, including the death OF
the two other keepers, and the rescue
at the peril of their own lives of the
one surviving man was brought to the
city yesterday by Capt, Salvadore
Monti, of the schooner Emma Jane, Of
Warren & Co.'S fleet.

Mont to a Journal representative on
the docks yesterday afternoon, "that
we sighted distress signal flying

treacherous breakers near the light.
We could go no closer in the Emma
Jane, so we launched dory, and put
off for the point. Although my men
risked their lives by going into the
breakers they did so and brought out
the man, Valerie Baneiro. He was
nearly dead, half drowned, and bruised

New York, Jan. 14.-There was a
heavy liquidation in stock today ac-

severe. Apprehension of pursuit OF
corporations was in the air, and the
national officers in Washington were
said to be behind this pursuit. The
coming supreme court decision in the
American Tobacco case was especially
dreaded. Efforts to adjust the suit
against the Union and Southern Pacific

apprehension than confidence, and
