Yeu cabin thla manner continue your Journey indefinitely without ever finding the Weet. The writer recollects when a visit te the1 eastern counties of Ohie was spoken of aa ajourney te the great West-te the "back woods." The trip could be accomplished only en horseback, and It occupied mere than a week. New the Pennsylvania rail road takes you te Steubenvllle, en the Ohie river, In about eleven hours. ' In the last year.ef the lsst century,Camp bell, In describing distance and solitude In regions where Hepe bad neVer dWelt, said : "The breezes blew Frem waitM that dumber tn eternal mew ; And waft across tbe wave, tumullueiu rear The wetr. long bowl (Tem Ounalaska'a shore.'' It is new but a short summer excursion te Alaska, Indescribably beautiful and Interesting, which Is enjoyed by thousands of excursionists. Only a few years age traveling was a aeries of labors and annoyances. Alterna tions of stage coaches and railroad cars, 1 l'nvelvlng"changes every few hours, con tests for comfortable Mats, trouble and t anxiety about baggage and uncertainties 1 about feed, were among the vexations of a I journey. New that Is happily all changed. A flatter or business calls yen te a place a abort distance, aay two thousand miles from home. Yeu purchase your ticket, get a check for your baggage te the place of destination, take a comfortable aeat In a gorgeous Pullman car and congratulate yeurseirthat, with perhaps a single change of eArs, by merely stepping from one train te another, In about sixty hours you will bcjUt the end of your journey. During that time you need net leave your car ; for lueire you iiavu society iu euierwuu yuu, Iks te read and abundant opportunity te wt, drink and be merry. And when vow arrive at your lsst station you are 4 fenTeS tuat M yur SP6' suam. ' ' nt"Aia have never troubled your- Wnibe In the baggage room awaiting ljyeur orders. &" A Inn rn av nf turn thmiwind miles west- J ward takes you te the Recky mountains. When you start, you naturally dread a continuous ride of sixty hours'.duratlen; but aa you go, time flies se rapidly that yen can hardly realise the fact of its termi nation. The constant changes-of scenery delight the eye and keep the mind em ployed, tdtmie makes up his mind te see sii lea-r-0 m gees, requires 110 expe diemy iHSW blm te kill time. Te him who has sn eye for beauty and a heart that expands with pleasure, the charm of being wailed through the romantic scenery of the Juniata vslley and the Alleghenles, the golden fields of Ohie, the dark forests and green swamps of Indiana, the huge corn fields of Illinois, Iowa and Nebraska, and the rich pastures of Kansas and Colerado, at a speed or fiem thirty te sixty miles an hour, is an Inexpressible delight. The main gate te the Recky mountains is the youthful but great city or Denver, the city or the plain one of the wonders or modern times. But a few years age she sat down ti the cactus beds of the great plain, about flfteen miles from the moun tains, a weak and lonely village. New the arid plain upon which she then sat, by the magle of her will, has become almost as rich iu farms and gardens as Lancaster county ; and she numbers one hundred thousand inhabitants. She may net be the probability is that she is net any mere moral than the ancient cities of the plain Tyre and Sidon but she greatly excels thfim iu beauty, perseverance and Intaxpanslve power. She will In ft few years be .the most beautiful city of utedern times. Her energy has partly honey heney honey ceinbod the mountains, aud has bound thorn with iron bands. Her growth is the .most marvelous or the age. The fact that she has put land, two miles from the centre, up te the price of one thousand dollars per acre for town lets, and new actually sells tbem at that prlce,preves that sbe is a man el. The wonder still grows, hew sbe was able te start and keep up such'' a boom. This circumstance is prob ably owing te the fact that the mountains of Colerado yield annually above thirty million dollars in geld and sliver, nearly all of which passes through her hands and pays heavy tribute te her genius and enter prise; but. It is, nevertheless, one et the wonders of the age. Notwithstanding the sttnictlens or the city or Denver, the experienced traveler will net tarry long within ber borders dur ing the het summer season. Her sun is het and oppressive and her zephyrs bring no cooling air with them. He who seeks comfort will hurry away te the mountain. As seen as an altltude or eight or nlne thousand feet above the the level of the sea Is reached, the whole atmosphere Is changed. The skies are bluer by day, the stars are brighter by night, ana the air is se pure and exhilarating that it Is a posi tive hyxury te sit and Inhale It. Ne proper Idea or such surroundings can be conveyed by words. They must be seen and Celt in order that they may be realized. Breezes fresh from contact with the pure rneuutaln ,news and perfumed with flowers are necessarily mere delightful than these simply laden with "spicy odors from the aunny field of Araby the Blest." A week in the mountains is worth mere In pure de light than a month en the seashore. Te be in a position, in the middle of July, where you can make snow Daws witii one hand and gather flowers or strawberries et the . same time with the ether, has charm be. yond anything effered by Jersey sand, and the melody or the fostlve mesquite, even though tetnpered by the sweet breath of the ocean. Miniug in Colerado has long since ceased te be a merely speculative business. In the early yeais of the discovery of the precious metals, men worked thelr mines only Iu expectation or making a utrlke and reaping a fortune in a abort time. Such expecta tions were realized occasionally ; but gen erally the result was failure and bank ruptcy, simply because the work was done In a careless and unbusinesslike manner. Bnt after the excitement of first discovery and or fortunate strikes passed an ay, the owners of mines realized the necessity of conducting their mining operations In a rational and buBiness-like manner. In the elder mining camps, like Central City, Georgetown and Leadvllle, the work of mining Is carried en in the same msnner that manufacturing Is In the Eastern states, and coal mining and farming are In Penn sylvania.

And, strange aa It may seem, In that far away valley, which la nearly surrounded by apparently Inac cessible mountains, la heard,, the ahrlll whistle of the locomotive. - Twe railroads have extended their Iren arma Inte the town, and of course adding very much te Ha Increase and Importance. Until quit lately It waa supposed that the narrow guage waa the proper, land In deed the only, railroad that could be suc cessfully operated en the high grades of the mountains. Fer many years the jDen ver A Bie Grande and Colerado Central, both narrow guage reads, had the entire control of the mountain trade, and a -seen as Aspen had a mine or two opened and a few houses built, the D. A R. G. R. R. com pany bullta branch Inte the place. Lately, the Colerado Midland railroad company conceived, tha Idea of building a standard gauge read from Colerado Springs te Lead vllle, which they subsequently, by mesne of the most wonderful feats of engineering, extended te Aspen. This, pleee of work has established the' fact that the standard gauge railroad can cress ravines at a height ofhundredseffeet,hungonlbe mountain cliffs, and climb elevations of twenty te thirty degrees aa well as the narrow gauge. It baa also established the fact that modern engineering can construct railroads, whether standard or narrow guage, wher ever they may be desired, j JP Modern enterprise Is Illimitable. A few years age Jules Verne published a romance entitled "Round the World In Eighty Days."

Immediately after tha regu lar chapel exercises G. B. Llrabert, of Madlsenburg, Pa., waa introduced and spoke en "Misdirected Energies."

MoLean.ef Urumfieldsvllle.was tbe next speaker, subject "The Bleed of Aesop." Because he would net divide a sum of geld Aesop was executed. Tha bleed of Aesop became a well-known adage. The desire of wealth Is salutary, provided It la regarded as for the accom accem accom 'pltshmentef the ultimate end of life; out-, ward conditions require free personality for earthly subsistence. The core of wealth does mueh evil; It begets a destre te rule, envy and hatred. The love of wealth should be exehanged for that of vlrtne and duty. Mr. D. M.

Mormonism Is one of the great problem that Is confronting the United States government te-day, and ha been for two generations. It teaches three doctrines directly opposed te the spirit of the constitution ; First, the union of church and state. Second, the shedding of man's bleed for the remission or his sins. Third, the complete subservlence and mental slavery or women. Repression by the government 1 the only solution, Mr. Takee Neya, of Wakamatsn, Japan, followed en "The Constitutional Growth of Japan." Tbe constitution of a people Is a growth, a subtle organism, and cannot be manufactured in a day. There were two currents in the stream of political activity; tbe one among tbe official circles, the ether among these of lower social life, each aided In tbe work by her parties, net mechani cally aggregated, but which sprung from tbe national life itself. Tbe rise of Japan under the new constitution is a political miracle even te the experienced West and well may his majesty, the present ruler of Japan, rejoice, Mr. J. Runkle, of Spring Mills, Pa., spoke en "Tbe Virgin Queen." Elizabeth, tbe daughter or tbe tyrannical Henry VIII, obtained the crown after the bloody reign of her half-sister, Mary J and was scarcely en her threne until she was barrassed by Mary Queen of Soets. Literary splendor added te tbe lustre of her age se prolific of great men. Mr. A. M. Shaflner, of Hummelstown, Ph., speke en the "Lien or the North," Sweden. Though stripped or its vast do mains her treasure still rests in tbe undy ing fame of ber sons ; her pride In tbe de voted attachment which they always msn msn Ifest toward their country ; ber glory In tbe deeds which add lustre te her history ; her consolation In the religious reeling which geverned her leaders. Sweden cat! rightfully lay claim te some of the most distinguished men or modern times, but Gustavus Adelpbus towers above tbe ethers as tbe Alleghenles tewer above the Blue Ridge. He was tbe greatest general or his age, the purest statesman or Europe, and tbe bravest champion or Protestantism or the seventeenth century. Mr.C. V. Smith, or Middletewn, Mil., snokeen "A Lefty Aspiration." Ferm Is written in glowing colors ou the heights el bumsn acblvements. A scJllsh spirit usually predominates In tbe struggle for positions of honor. Christian duty prompts us te extend a helping band. May It be our loftiest aspiration te evolve something In our lives that shall llve In all It beauty when earthly triumphs have crumbled Inte dust Mr. W. C. Sykes, of AUentewu, Pa., fol lowed en "The Fall or Poland." Tbe Peles were a nation of warriors,net of poets. Consequently tbe g'ery of Pelsnd is for gotten. Tbe Poles occupied their land from prehistoric times and the dismemberment or Poland in tbe latter part or the eigh teenth century by Russls, Prussia and Austria was most cowardly. But the avenger came, and new, after a hundred years, we bear of a great social revolution. C. D. Welrick, or Myerstown, Pa., spoke en " The Essentials or Success." Trust end confidence are the foundation or success. The gifts or men sre infinite In character and degree, but the rarest Is tbe faculty for honest work. Intelligence is a prerequisite te success. Tbe whole field of human knewledge furnishes material for use in after life. The history of our country justifies optimism. The exercises were Interspersed with music rendered by the Glee club.
