2. Education Organized society
has seen that ignorance is soil in
which seeds of badness grow with
alarming rapidity, so it has set about
the erection of a wall of education
around the Individual
All things being equal the educated
nan should be better able to protect
himself against the enemies of the
Jody, the mind and the soul and the
individual is much safer when sur
~ounded by the outer wall of educa-
ton.
3. The Home. Organized society
has seen that the influence of wife
and children is one of the most
wholesome influences of life. The
stability of society, virtue of woman
hood and honor of manhood depends
upon the development of a good
home life.
Now 1 feel like taking off my hat to
organized society for the real service
it has rendered the cause of religion
by erecting these outer walls of leg
islatiOn, education and home; but
there is no one who does not know
that there are exigencies in life when
no one nor all of these walls can rem.
der the individual safe.
And want now to pay a tribute to
that one inner wall Of genuine Chris
tian character which will stand when
all these outer walls have crumbIed
into dust.
If every man in America was a gen.
uine Christian we could best our
swords into pruning hoods, our bay
Onets into pIOughshares, sink our bat

For Rent" sign over every brewery,
over every saloon, and houses of
shame would become houses of Vir-
tue.

about In strange manner. Ed Kend-
rick of the Palace Livery Baron has
Ct times missed several small articles
from the barn, such as pieces of har-
ness, halters, etc. He was never able
to locate the stolen articles until yes
terday when Constable McMurtrey
caught two stray cows and placed
them in the public pound. One of
the cows had a halter on her neck
which Kendrick recognized as one of
the stolen articles from the barn. Ac-
cordingly the owner of the cow was
searched for and found to be E. Jayo.
When confronted with the stolen prop
erty, a fifteen-year-old son of Jayo
confessed to stealing the articles.
Kendrick then had a warrant sworn

NEVADA EXHIBITS
. ! BEING ASSEMBLED
Agricultural and Mining l=.--==.= :.
State to Be Well Repre-
sented at Fairs

The work OF assembling the Nevada
agricultural and mining exhibits for
the San Diego and San Francisco ex-
positions is progressing as rapidly as
1t is possible to get them in shape at
the state university. and it is probable
that they will be ready for shipment
about the 15thtor 18th OF January.
The agl1eRit9sal exhibits will be
thoroughly representative of every
agricultural product in the state, in.
Guiding native grasses, range feeds,
wool, etc. The exhibit for San Fran
cisco will be especially high class, as
1t will be in competition with exhibits
from other states and those in charge
Of the Nevada exhibit propose to have
1t among the biggest winners of priz-
es. This exhibit has been awarded a
prominent place in the agricultural
palace, and will be where 1t will at
tract great deal of attention during
the exposition. ...
While the San Diego exhibit will be
thoroughly good in every way, it will
not be as large as the San Francisco
exhibit, and will not be entered in any
competition for prizes.
These exhibits are being carefully
prepared in Stewart hall at the univer-
sity, under the direction of Lloyd b.
Patrick, who has good force of stu
dents assisting in the work.
The mining exhibit is being prepar-
ed at the Mackay school OF mines and
a large number of cases have already
been shaped VI and packed. For con-
venience in assembling the specimens,
places have been chalked Off on the
floor OF the museum of the size of the
cases in which the specimens will be
exhibited, and into these are placed
selected specimens to comfortably fill
it. Each of these separate exhibits
can then be labelled and packed for
shipment, and when they are unpack-
ed in San Francisco they can be quick
ly assigned to a case without any con-
fusion.
Mining companies all over the state
have extended the heartiest co-opera-
ton in supplying specimens. and Ne
yada will have a mineral exhibit that
will be credit and splendid adver-
tisement of the mineral resources of
the state.
