Plan Of Arbuckle Mining Exchange to
Secure Miners.

DaHis, OKLA, Aug. 22.TO~ing to the,
scarcity OF PRACTICAL Mining men and
prospectors in the new field west Of

OF this city has evolved rather novel
pian whereby they hope to secure
miners from Colorado. Nevada and
other mining states. The scheme is
mapped out along the line of recent
organization in Denver. They sub
scribed fund of $4,000 to grub
stake" prospectors and if any man
discovered a mine it was to be turned
over TO a two million dollar company
or syndicate, and the prospector
would receive stock for his mine. He
mould also be given employment at
good wages.
The Arbucllle Mining Exchange,
through its executive committee is
considering a plan by which if a pros
rector developed a paying prospect II
would be turned into million dollar
company and stock issued in an
amount to be agreed upon by com
lnittee composed of mining engineers.

Cities of Refuuo.

In the tumultuous days of old. when
every mans hand was against every
other man and every other mans hand
against him." ~hen the principle of
due process of law was practically
unknown and private vengeance was
the rule Of the day. it was absolutely
necessary that there should be some
place to which one could fly for safety.
Such were the cities Of refuge" of
which there were six i'm Palestine. He
who succeeded in reaching such asy-
lum when pursued by his wDu!d be de
stroyer was safe until his right to pro-
lection was iudlcially decided. In all
probability there were cities Of refuge
in other countries than Palestine.

NATURAL MEASURES.
The Hand, tho Pace and the cubit Of
tho Scriptures.

The Hand, tho Pace and the cubit Of
tho Scriptures.
The first natural measurement" to
which the memory naturally recurs is
the hand. four inches. employed in
determining the height of horses. This
measure is, of course, derived from
the breadth Of the palm. and it has
become so we'll fixed in popular esteem
that it is unlikely it will ever be- super
seeded.
Another popular natural measure is
the pace, and probably every country
man who has had to do with land has
used It. The usual method is to stride
of, taking as long steps as possible,
calling each pace a yard.
A natural measure much employed
by n dressmaker is the yard as de-
termined by stretching the material to
be measured between her chin and
her outstretched hand, or If 1t be a
matter of inches she will fold the
Blended upper joint of her thumb along
the cloth. These natural measures are
generally close enough to serve all
practical purposes. u
For many hundreds OF years thcre
was employed the measure of the fore
arm from point Of elbow to tip of mid
die finger. This was the cubit of the
Bible.-St. Louis Republic.
