ness for the road and as yet has not
learned of his election, but his friends
in Chicago told yesterday why they
hard chosen him for the position
Dickson came to our road from
the Burlington only year ago." one
of them said yesterday. When he left
the o. he was their general inspector
Of transportation, and that means that
he had risen mighty quickly. He be-
came the vice president of the Alaska
road and acted under S. H. Graves,
who was the president until few
weeks ago. Mr.. Graves death was
responsible for the new election
Mr.. Dickson is not college trained
man. He attributes his success to his
supreme curiosity and stick-to-itive-
ness.
"He always wished to know the
reason for everything" j. r. Elliott,
connected with the Alaska line, said
last night "He began as stem
ographer, and after learning all there
was to that business set himself
to finding out how the
other railway wheels went round. And
he found out, too, for he is the most
tenacious man ever have SEEN"
The White Pass & Yukon route lies
between Skagway and White Horse,
distance of $50 miles. From the latter
point the company operates a steam.
ship line to Dawson. The road was the
first railroad of any size to be built in
Alaska. ria.

or Baal. The test was TO be that Two
affairs we're TO be built and two bull
locks were to be sacrificed The Baal-
ties were TO provide the bullOcNs
themselves and TO make choice of the
one for their own altar. Whichever
God would answer by fire and accept
the Offering. would be acknowledged
as the only true God.
To them came the first opportunity.
They had the noontimc opportunity,
when the fierce heat of the sun Seem
ed almost warm enough 70 set fire to
the fat OF the bullock. They prayed;
they shrieked; they cut themselves
with knives, entreating that Baal
would answer by fire and prove HIM
self the mighty god Hour after hour
this proceeded until evening, when
they were forced TO give over and adj
init their inability
Then came Elljah's turn. He COM
/ manded that water be brought and
that the altar which he was to use
should be thoroughly flooded with wa
ter. No one must have room to say
that there was a secret shoulder OF
fire beneath. And, since the sun had
gone down. no one could claim a spon-
taneous combustion. then Elijah
prayed calmly. earnestly. reverently
and the Divine answer came-a FIRE
from heaven consuming the sacrifice
and licking up the water in the trough
of the altar.
Then the people recognized the dif-
ference. They fell on their faces aud
said. Jehovah is The God A great
lesson had been learned.
A lesson for MS is that the masses
Of Christendom are deceived today,
as were the masses of Israel then.
And when. by and by. God shall open
> their eyes OF understanding through
the agency OF Messiah's Kingdom,
every knee shall bow and every
tongue confess. The knowledge OF
the Lord will MI the whole earth.
