Finished the Doctor.

A gaunt and killed Scotsman made
his appearance in a country village
and was endeaYoring to charm the
locals to charity with selections on
his bagpipe. A shaggy-haired man
opened the front door of a house and
beckoned to the minstrel.
"Gie US a wee bit Tilt just cot here"
he said, in an accent which told that
he also was from the land Of the bag
gis. "Ay auld mither's in a creetical
condeetion cpstair. The doctors wi
her the moo, and says the pipes may
save her life"
Up and down in front of the house
marched the Draw Hielander, dis
coursing music that might well have
been incidental to a cat and dog fight.
Presently the shaggy-haired man
came out again.

said.

In the death of MI. A. NJ. Lee, of

a very valuable member of it's board.
He took great interest in the college
and had an intelligent idea Of the

Rivers of Charleston. Mr.. Rivers is
not in politics but takes an active in
terest in all educational matters and
would make q worthy successor to
Mr.. Lee and a valuable addition to the

about $4,000. Some of the larger coun-

THE IDLER.

Well, I see from one report of John
Woods speech he did tell them about
that park. I guess he must have read
in The Herald and News what had
to say about it and then the commit
tee took him over to Willowbook and
that gave him the inspiration. ANY,
body who goes to this beautiful spot
can't help getting the inspiration.
The editor tells me that one pro-
gressive citizen told him the other day
that he would give 500 plunks for this
cause but he declined to tell me who
it is. Well, that doesn't matter. 1
know he is a live and progressive cit
izen who has the interests of this
community at heart, and l believe
there are others if only some n OF
them would just take the lead.
Now, I an going to name ten live,
progressive, good business men who
I believe will be each N of ten to
give 500 plunks to this park and It
any one of them will become active
The Idler's' Park is built already.
They would not miss the little 500 and
they would start a movement which
would be of lasting benefit to this and
succeeding generations. Here they
are: c. E. Summer, Geo. ". Summer,
J. H. Summer, Jno. NJ. Kinard, 0. B.
Mayer, G. J.. Purcell, J. A. Burton, Z.
F. Wright, F. 2. Wiyson, ". H. Hunt,
and there are others. Organize your
park association, gentlemen, and get
busy. Five thousand plunks would be
a good start. Do it now before it is
too late. The time may come soon
when you can't cur a desirable To-
cation.

n the Atlanta Constitution:

in the Atlanta Constitution:
81 think I have done my duty"
Thus spoke England's king, as
death approached his bedside.
One need not be charged with SER
monizing to see in the incident a fresh
illustration of the ultimate democracy
of humanity.
II have done my duty"
When the end closes in, and human
standards and the lures Of worldly
Joys fade and vanish, wistfully to ev-
cry man and woman and conscious
child, regardless of rank, station or
temperament, comes the desire to be
able, sincerely, to say or feel the SEN
timent that rounded out the life of
England's dying monarch.
It is a great thing for any one, how
ever humble, to be able to say truth
fully, 81 have done my duty" The
trouble is so many of us fall so far
short of our duty. Another thing We
should not forget: The man who fails
to do his duty in small things and in
humble spheres is not the man to
whom you want to entrust larger
things. Anything that is worth doing
at all it is worth doing Well. You re-
member that it is recorded somewhere
in that great and good Book some
thing abotu the talents and what was
said to the man who was given only
two talents and had gained two other
talents. His lord said unto him, well
done, good and faithful servant; thou
hast been faithful over a few things,
I will make thee ruler over many
things; enter thou into the Joy of thy

New Source OF Desert Wealth

\ new SOurSe of wealth has been
discovered by James K, Clark, former
ly of RhyOlite, but now making his
headquarters at Smiths ranch, seven
miles this side of Zabriskic, on the Il. 81
T, railroad, says the Rhyolite Herald
Adjoining the ranch he has taken up
the region of the hot springs, known
as Shoshone springs. There he had
found deposit of silica, probably made
by the thermal power, as fine and smooth
as talcum powder. He has i'm sight
approximately some forty million tons
and prospcctiyely as many more tons.
a number of carloads have been
sent to cities east and west TO have
the material tested for utility. AS the
chief component part of all classes of
things, for which it is ready recipient
for all colorings, and for all subtcr-
ranean, paving or otherwise, for all con
crete mixture, and other uses, it has
been proven 50 superior that it will
stand considerable freight charges in
competition with sea beach ana other
sands.
Mr.. Clark is now negotiating con-
tract with the T. & T. railroad to trans
port this forty million tons of silica
powder-the biggest freight contract
ever made by any corporation. On the
terms of the contract depends the speed
with which the deposit will be utilized.
Los Angeles and San Francisco are
making the most urgent demands for
the product at present.
The magnitude of the enterprise makes
even cent ton of considerable import
ance to both producer and carrier.
Thus another valuable contribution
to manufacturers is discovered in the
desert waste, and inquiring man is
developing riches that munificent ma
tire has provided for tho ease and

Loss OF Cattle Exaggerated

Mr.. Russell has received letter from
Dumphy ranch at Beowawe, in whic
he says the losses of cattle on the Dunphy
ranch have been greatly exaggerated.
He places the loss by tho flood at
between 300 and 700 head and the loss
by cold weather between 800 and 400.
The total loss by water and mud and
by the extreme cold weather will not
exceed 10 per cent of the number of
cattle on the ranch.
