MINISTER'S WIFE
Expected to Do a Thousand and One
Things for Which She's No Time.
A HARD WORKER WITHOOT SALARY
An Unwritten Contract, but One That's
Hone the Less Binding.
ITEMS OF INTEREST FOB CHRISTIANS
Protestant ministers, not thinking it re
quired of them by any lav, either human or
divine, to live a life of celibacy, take to
themselves wives, thinking they will be of
great comfort to them in their homes, or
rather in making a home. But there are
churches that seem to forget a minister's
wife has any household cares to occupy her
time and attention. She is expected to lead
in all the work of the Aid Society, to pre
side at all missionary meetings, to teach in
the Sabbath school, to visit all the sick, to
go to comfort and help the distressed, to
take charge of all the ladies' prayer meet
ings, to superintend all suppers, teas, so
cials, bataars, etc; in short, she is expected to
be all tbincs to all women, that by any means
she may help some. But why should she be
asked to do all this? She is a member of the
church; so are other ladies. "It might be
means of power in the pastor's work if his part
ner n ere possessed of all graces," so that she
nnght be his assistant, without salary; but hare
the churches any right to ask bo much from
her? At a time when some ministers are intro
ducing new wives to congregations and so
many others are beginning work in new fields
it will be well for both parties if they will, in
this respect.becin aright. Marion Harland, who
knows well how these things are by personal
experience, having Deen a minister's wife for
many years (she being the wife of Rev. E. P.
Terhnne. D. D.. Brooklyn, N. Y.), wrote an ar
ticle for the Sorth American Menew worthy
attentive perusal by all In the churches. In it
she well says:
"There is no propriety in expecting the
woman who has espoused a clergvnian to have,
ex officio, special fitness for all departments of
charitable and religious labor. Common sense
rules sne may suit nim excellently well as a
wife, yet be endowed with no peculiar gifts for
'leading meetings' and taking chairs.' fie
cannot, after the manner of other public men,
bold in the knowledge that their houses are
their castles, cast himself betn een her and her
censors with the protest, A poor thine, but
mine own.' I have known men thus 'hindered'
to drag the shrinking weaklings into the fore
front of the battle, prick them into action be
yond their strength by frantic appeals to ex
pediency, custom, pride, love, piety, until the
victims of a false system, wounded and wearied
to their death, fell unaer the harness so much
too heavy for them. The minister's wife is. In
too many parishes, virtually included in the
engagement which hires him, body and souL
The unwritten contract is unfair, cruel and
iniquitous. What a private church member of
equal ability can do, she is bound to undertake,
and nothing more. What she may or may not
accomplish should affect her husband's influ
ence in the same fielil no more than if he were
a lay communicant in the church to which she
belongs. I need uo father or mother In Israel
to warn me I am touching upon delicate and
dangerous ground. There are exceptional par
ishes where the love and loyalty rendered the
pastor envelope his home and the dwellers
therein in an atmosphere of affectionate appre
ciation, which is at once sweet and wholesome,
invigoration and balm. Labor with such a peo
ple is continual joy, and companionship with
those who compose it enriches with fuller
meaning the phrase The household of faith.' "

Ghaut County, N. II., October 13. j .
Though the real general development of
this Territory's mineral resources com
menced only a few years ago, Pittsburg
capital is already largely invested therein.
It was not until geological and mineralog
ical surveys had been made and reported
by the General Government, and the coming
of railroads and convenient transportation
had become an assured fact, that this live
development commenced. Sufficient has
thus been demonstrated to clearly establish
beyond doubt that New Mexico is one of
the richest and most permanent in mineral
resources of all the States and Territories:
that there are within its borders many
mines entitled to rank among the most le
markable and richest in yield in the known
world.
Generally theresourcesoftheTerritory con
sist largely of not only its mines of precious
metals, but likewise of copper, lead, man
ganese and iron, beside mica, salt, coal,
gypsum, soda, lime, kaolin, cement, sulphur,
plumbago, mineral paints, marble and build
ing stones. Precious stones, such as tur
quoise, garnet, moss agate and emerald are
also found.
both bich akd attractive.
Grant county at present, as for many
years, is recognized as the principal mineral
producing portion of New Mexico, and is
situated in the extreme southwestern portion
of the Territory. It is very large, and is
beautifully diversified by elevated grassy
plateaus, mountain ranges and peaks, and
fertile valleys. The first discovery of gold
in the county was in 1859, near Pinos Altos,
about nine miles north of the present site of
Silver City, the countv seat, and for several
years thereafter from 1,000 to 2,000 men were
actively engaged in gulch mining in this
place. The placers are represented to have
been very rich and of considerable extent.
Washing is still carried on, upon a small
scale, by persons without much capital, who,
when not prevented by scarcity of water,
make good wages at the work.
One of the greatest districts oi the terri
tory, in its quantity and quality of ores, is
about 25 miles southwest ot the Burro
Mountains, near the line (two and a half
miles distant), of the Southern Pacific
Railroad, and in the Pyramid range of
mountains. The mineral bearing area Js
about 20x8 miles in extent, and is most
promising.
The Atwood, or Standard Mutual Com
pany, mines, owned by parties in New
York, Pittsburg and Oil City, will soon be
operating their own smelting mill and all
works appertaining to the business, and
have them in active operation. This com
pany has also very rich claims adjoining
the Atwood mine, on which assessment
work is being done.
THINGS MODERN APPEAR.
The "free for all chance" in the race of
modern energy, enterprise and prosperity
the coming of steam transportation in its
mighty, irresistible, onward course has
here been peaceably met face to face, so that
medieval conservatism and the crooked
stick plows and industrial methods of the
Ptolemies are things of the past.
The climate here is very equable and ad
mits of working the year round, the amount
of ozone in the Rocky Mountain regions,
especially in this latitude, is much greater
than in the Central and seaboard States.
Ozone will not tolerate imparities, hence
the extreme wholesomeness of the atmos
phere. In illustration raw meats are cut
up and dried, preserved and stored for
future use, without the usual preserving
process. In spite of the absence of any
system of sewerage in centers of population,
as Santa Fe, Sorocco and Silver City, be
yond natural drainage and the cleansing
coming from copious showers, there is an
extreme healthfulness among the people.
This fact has given rise to the saying pro
verbial among the native population that,
"It is a country where none die except with
their boots on, and of the octogenarian,
that he "dries up and is blown away."

THE SCHENLEY PARK.
The Amount of Preparatory Red Tape Nec
essary Prospective Consolation for
Men Wanting a Job.
The Schenley Park project is not dead,
but resting until the proper time comes for
re-awakening official and public interest in
the matter. Before any practical steps can
be taken to beautify that portion of the city
considerable civic legislation is required.
Controller Morrow, when asked what the
nature of such legislation would be replied
that first an enabling ordinance was needed
to empower the city to receive any gift of
ground Mrs. Schenley may make, as in the
case of Sneider Square in the Twelfth ward,
given by the Denneys in 1872. The park
mnst be accented and dedicated to that pur
pose subject to the conditions in the deed of
gilt. Then an ordinance will nave to be
passed authorizing the purchase of any addi
tional ground which may be necessary to
complete or enlarge the gift to such an ex
tent as to make it appropriate for the pur
pose intended, and the appropriation bill
will have to provide the money for park
purposes.
Another feature' of the preparations and
one most interesting to people out ot a job
at the time is the necessity of a Park Super
intendent and assistants and probably park
police. The superintendent's position will
be similar to that occupied by William
Hamilton, of the' Allegheny Parks. The
Controller here said that no undue hopes
should be excited or resignations take place
in the hopes of securing one of those posi
tions as it will be three or four years before
there will be any necessity for their exis
tence, during which time the tract of ground
will be in the bands of the Department of
Public Works.

George H. Dorris was walking down
South Twenty-fourth street yesterday when
some boys began jeering at his somewhat
outlandish get up. Dorris had on an old
battered hat, and the young gamins were
very solicitous about the antecedents of the
headgear in question; calling out "where

gust of Mr. Dorris. Finally Dorris rushed
at the urchins, and caught one of them, a
little fellow named Edward Casey, whom he
kicked and beat brutally with his cane.
Having obtained his revenge he sauntered
off. Meanwhile Casey's mother, who lives
near, arrived and ran to find a policeman.
Officer Gannon was at hand, and immedi
ately started in pursuit of Dorris but 'could
not find him. Mrs. Casey says that Dorris
is boarding on Twenty-first street, and has

he was formerly a stenographer in Pittburg,

Dr. Richard H. McDonald, the venerable
millionaire who made his fortune out of vinegar
bitters, and who now runs the Pacific Bank in
intervals of his prohibition work, has brought
suit at San Francisco against Senator Leland
Stanford for $1,200,000, which he claims Stan
ford owes him for 25 certificates of the original
issue ot Central Pacific stock made 25 years
ago. This is the stock which Stanford pur
chased from Mrs. Clara Belle McDonald, the
complainant's wife, who, it is alleged, stole it
about two years ago.
A pretty younc woman was arrested at
Cllqnot, Minn , Wednesday night, while tend

peared in that town Saturday and at once ap-
lied for work at the saloon of a man named
Smith and was promptly encaged as barkeeper.

which she could not disguise. She was not
surprised at beinz arrested, and took matters
coolly. Her antecedents and name are not
known. She says she assumed the disguise to

Jay Gould has signed contracts with the
city of Ft. Scott, Kan , to build three lines of
railroad the Fort Scott and Belt Line, with
terminal facilities; the Fort Scott and Eastern,
connecting this point with the Missouri Pacific
at Pipton, Mo., a distance of 130 miles, and the
south line of Mindon, Ma, connecting with the
mam line at that point. This is practically a
consolidation of the Gould Kansas system at
this point, and is considered one of Gould's
strategic moves on the railroad checker board.
Everything he wished was conceded here, and
in return he will build an elegant depot, locate
shops, etc.

The board of inquiry which has been sit
ting at Jefferson Barracks. Mo., the army re
cruiting station, for nearly three weeks past to
ascertain if possible why there are so many
desertions from the army, has completed its
labors. Over 50 witnesses, including officers
and men of all grades, were examined, but

the charges made by Woodward, the recruit,
regarding the treatment and food of the men,
npon which the Inquiry was based, have been
fully substantiated. The testimony taken
makes over 300 pages of typewritten matter,
and will be ready to be forwarded to Secretary

TenYears of Intense Suffering
Mr. Frank Bordar, a well-known gentleman,
suffered for ten years from Kidney disease.
After receiving two months' treatment from
the physicians of tbe Folypatnlc Medical Insti
tute, he gaTe the following Interesting history,
with permission to publish it. He said: "I had
much pain across my back and lower part of
my body. My hands and feet would often get
cold, and sharp cramps would often seize me.
My heart would at timespalpltate as if it would
jump out of my body. Hot flashes would often
come over me. I was always tired on getting
up in the morning. The disease finally ex
tended to my lungs, causing much pain and
tightness In my chest. In yam I tried to nnd
some doctor who could cure me, but could only
get a little relief, and so I suffered on In this
way for ten years. I finally read in the papers
of wonderful cures being made by the phy
sicians of the Polypathia Institute, and as I
read that they made a specialty ot my disease,
1 began treatment, and I am glad to state that
x nave oeen curea.1
