In tlio llfc-uivliiK niyn of an atmos
phere illuminated iiy thn light of an
eternal day."
TIu'hh milar ImiIiikh, Prof. Voiiiik do
oliuw, IteloiiK a race of men who
arc intellectual glantH, and whono
utaturc Ih awninHpirliiK. They arc
entirely of the hcxt there Ih in mortal
mentally, physically and morally.
They aie all of one nation. Har
mony dwells supreme. Wars are un
known ami peace in neverl Inter
rupted, even hy a strike. There Ih
no k'amliliiiK and therefore no graft
lug. I'rof. Voung makes the start Hug
announcement that on the lower
portion of one of the sun spots he Iiiih
discovered indisputable proofs of
the presence on the orli of tire of
men. This, he says, Ih n the form of
two huge shafts which have the ap
pearance of monuments or signalling
towers. Prof. Voiiiik says these
shaftH are constructed of what ap
pears to lie red sandstone. They are
50,000 miles In height, the pinnacle
of each shaft lielug surmounted Iiy
a huge crystal, proUthly a diamond
live miles in diameter, which Hashes
out for thousands of miles its gleam
ing rays. Colonel Dewey has aliso
lately nothing to equal It In Thun
der Mountain, and ho far the lowest
levels of liutto liavo nothing to our
pass It.
Tho Indiana man of sclenco makes
the further Important statement that
the hiiii Ih an opaque body ami tho
center of electric power, Hiirrouudod
hy an absolute noti-coiidiictiro ele
ment Himilar to that of tho earth's
atmosphere, hut without vapor. Ho
I says this great opaque body Ih Il
luminated by the converging streams
of electricity passing through tho at
mosphere hofotre entering the body
of the hiiii from the infinite void of
darkness and space beyond. Tho
diverging rayH of the same force, ho
declares, pass through tho sun on
their way out on the opposite side of
the sphere into the same vast realm
of infinity. Thus the incoming ami
outgoing streams of electric energy
meet with constant resistance of the
iiDii-comluctlvo element and aro
evolved In light and heat.
With the perfecting ami enlarging
of this wonderful instrument, tho
Holarscope, I'rof. Voting declares that
within a short time he will lie en
abled to announce further discoveries,
more startling than those he Iiiih al
ready made.
It Ih a pity that the news of theso
great discoveries wiih not heralded In
time for the Montana legislature
to join with that of the I loonier state
in arranging a junket. We want our
share of the bla.lug gems, ami es
pecially do wo want a chunk of tho
diamond live miles in diameter.

Gold Mints and Millionaires.
Mines and mlllonalrcs have como
to be synonymous words, Ithodes,
Clark, Mackay, Fair, Flood, Hearst,
Daly, Alfred Kelt, the richest man in
Kiiglaud, all became millionaires
from mines. They were all poor men
in the iH'glnnlng. Their only capi
tal was their ability to see tho chance
for wealth ami seize it. They knew
when they had a initio and they com
pelled that mine to give up H
treasures. Those who had faith In
their judgment lived to share their
wealth. Through the force of tho
millions it Iiiih created ami tho wealth
it has given to the world, ami the
thousands of men whoso competence
Iiiih Iioou added to by tho Investment
of a small amount, milling Ih coming
to 1h regarded as the friend of tho
comparatively poor as well as tlio
great rich. A mine Ih not u pros
pector's hole in tlio ground. Hut
when ii good pronpoct Iiiih Imoii lo
cated and the ore body Iiiih Iioou
searched In every direction down
ami up by tunnels, and Ih found to
contain great quantities of gold, that
prospect is a mine, ami such a mine
means millions. Hy means of theso
tunnels the gold ore in sight can lie
mcnmirod as easily an a pile of lumber
or a bin of wheat. National Hanker.
