A DeserlptlTe letter by "Allpg-o" from Hi Colombo llomr. DntR IIowArtps Now that my day's rork if done and I am in a communicative mool I have chosen to come to the Dftt'e tonint for a chat and renew old acquaintance. I have had go little epare time of late that I hare fal en eadly behind with all xny correspondence, until I atn almost ashamed to eiuerze at bo late a day, but "better late than neTtr," maybe, eo 1 will In part try and repay for past oilenses by putting on my "etore clothea" and look ood as I possibly can. Our little town of Delta ia the county eeat of Delta county, situated at the junction of the Uunnison and I'ncompOvrhre river, in a lovely little valley noied principally for its fin fruit; is surrounded on all aides by h:h mountains ull of rich ores of all kinds, mainly silver. It is here that "free siiverites," abound almost to a man. The chief reason being that the majority are interested in mininar. In this immediate vicinity, fruit culture is the prevailing occupation, and ha proved many times a auccess. Owing to the dry climate all lands are irrigated, and can be cu titrated to the greatest profit, in fruit or garden product, tbouzh wheat and oatpare very succenaful y raised. Potatoes yield well, nd generally brins a good price, aversing, I think, about 75 cents perb'irhe.' A cti:om of the country I tind, id to quote prices either by the hundred or br pound, escept on wheat. Farmers are termed ranchmen. "Cowboys' are junt cowboys and grow in profusion, and ai "Bill Sye" would inv, "thev belong to that kfnd of country where impossibilities seem to abound." I have yd to dance to the mueic of their "guns," yet I cannot toast cf that pleasure too much, for 1 tniht, if permitted to exist, have to give you an article ou that one particular subject. Here in the valley we are enjoying the rt stages of spring, whi e we can tee snow falling in the mountain ev ry day. The climate is all one could desire, unless they inhed to be where snow never fails. Winters very light and summers in the un very hot, while in the shade quite comfortable. My last letter dealt principally with the San Juan gold discover.", which wereeiciting no mucii attention at that t me. I did n t go and I have bean unable to find any one that did. T hey have either stayed or come back and lied, and I am inclined to believe the latter it the most nrobab e, since the whole thing has proved a "fake" of the moat pro Bounced typ. Calmer heads than mine stayed at home a I ho, und thereby points a moral. I am afraid that, were the "fool-kil!er" to visit tftis country, the "dead" wou'd hve to "bury its dead," for I'm confident that there would not be enough left to carry out the last sad rites. That assertion is rather broad, yet it in made in a spirit that none should take offense, since none of us went to the an Juan.

Description of tlin Carlos in tlie Indiana State Ocologicül Museum. Howard Liter a ky Club Among the many curios in the Indiana state geological museum the war re ics occupy a consoicuous position. The battle flags and banners of the lloosier state, which once waved over the troopB at Gettysburg, Ft. Donelson, Shiloh, Lookout Mountain and many other weiifought battle held, are now furled in peace and stand in grim silence against the wall, j bt their tattered aud torn conI dition epefcks more eloquently than writ ten eulogies of what the uiave boys in blue" withstood in the strife between north and south. Then are many interesting relics from the batiletielde of the civil war, from the Mexican campaign and the war of the revolution. There are aiso some meinen-toe-t of the butt e of Tippecanoe, where Gen. William Henry Harri-on won the sobriquet of "Old Tippecanoe." What ii vitt-t amount cf si'.eut history each individui relic poseetpes. Hero is a cannon bad from the atormmg of Chapultepec. liow the cowar llv Mexicans must have scampered when it cut it.- way through them. A near neighbor id ttie sword of Gen. William Henry Harrison, who proof against Indian arrows, and more than a match for -the wily Tecumee and his allien, only escaped the perns incident to Indian warlar to fall a sacrifice to the clamoring of an importunate hordo of hungry oilice-seekera. A portion of the llag stall' of old Ft.

A rebel flag from Ft. lkmelaon, a banner carried by Terry's Texas rar, gfirs, and a large torpedo taken out of tbe Mississippi river near Columbus. Ky., are among the most interesting of the many reminders of the civil war. The i" ost unique of the war relics is a letter written On the bark of a tree bv K. M. 13. Hooker oi tbe Twentieth regiment. Indiana volunteers, and addre-.-ed to Uovernor Oliver 1. Morton, the war governor of Indiana. The letter wad written from Turkey llend, James river, .July -'4, lbi'. It ia impoo-ible to make out the full text of the tetter, as old Father Time ban left his impress upon this unique manuscript, but here is that which could be made out with the nked eye: "Army of the I'otomac, Turkey Uend of Janv s river, July 'Jl. lSiL. "The Hon. (i.iver P. Morton To show what a soldier can do when hard uo I sjnd you th:a specimen. It's tlie bark of a growinc tree near our camp." The remainder of this rather odd and interesting letter could not be read as time had rendered it illegible.

It ought to encourage the most despondent to note the improvement made within the last three months upon the page. It ehou d dismiss all doubt and stimulate a desire for further improvement. I want to aok, whv it id, that most all Christians seem to treat infide a so called with contempt. A writer, not on th page, tells us that no echo ars aro infidels. I will venture to sav the man who made that remark never studied the meaning of the ten commandments nor unlocked hischarity box except tor nellioh dcnins. 1 am no advocate of, inhdlitv, but I do like to see the fair thir.g displayed in religion as well as in other matters. So man over felt better for being called an infide . Orthodoxy never made a convert by calling a mun a bug director. I beiieve the church has done inure to increase infidelity it gets credit for. Ot course she don't want to take the credit. The writer further nave: "I have yet to see an humble inhdel " That may be true, but I have yet to bee one who failed to be kibd and obliging to their Christian neighbors in sickness, whi.e other Christian skulked out of the way. One writer savs: "tiooi deeds performed by infidels fail short." Do they? 'Th the name, then, not the de 1, that makes us perfect in Christ. Understand 1 am speaking as conscience te la how all men should b treated not that I am an infidel. If there were noinusie in the soul cf man, no joy in the sweet voice ot a child, no Uo were to bloom by its side, then (here might be t-ome excuse to not believe in immorality. "lis a queer picture to see an unbeliever working in Christian harms sometimes, and as oiten we notice the Chriatian planting a crop for the devil. It matters not how much we quote scripture to prove that we are right and all others wrong, it won't fix us up. I think, unless we d our dutv here, it may be quite dillerent from what we expect.

Ida S" Airs "rollockV Kather I'aradoxi.il tlpinion l.i Her L'miuI Style. To the Cli n Joün Stuart Mill save: "Vere an opinion a pereoual possession of no va tie whatever only to its owner then the suppression of that opinion might be, no w rong. But this is not the case, opinions belong not only to the present but to poetcity. Wüen you ulence opinion you commit a doublefold robb-ry. And you rob those more who di-H:nt to tlie opinion than thoe who ho.d to it. If the opinion is riht they are deprived of the opportun. ty of exchanging error for truth; if wrouthey lose al'iiOtt as great a beneht, and that is the clearer perception and brighter impression of truth produced by ita contact with error." And so, taking comfort from the foregoing. I wi 1 air 'Tul.uckV' rather paradoxical opinion of mye li in tbe following "i'o loca" thinks my article on atheism shou.d have been labeled agnotticiem. roilock" wt.nders that the study of the earth d d not dio me that I wae liuite.

"l'ol.ock," my article was a kind of a ek ppy thing, I know, hut I mut have skipped more than I thought I did. if I failed to let you know thtit I thought the earth only taught ünitv as far ns condition or form is concerned. Of course when we hav9 reto.ved the Htudy of rn;m and earth back to the original atomic cr uneeen gaseoua ttHtf, of which both are composed, then we find inlinity, but it is an infinity of atoms; not a personal iod having a likeness to oursclvet at all. And I aay. as I e-aid bofore, this is all that earth tenches us. Ii 1 know anything of tins inlinite tiod vou epoke of tnv not knowing. I mint L'o to Ilevel.ttions for a knowledge of Him or get the knowledge by eomeaupernntiiral m-ans not known-, in earthly, or natural law, torme and con dition. And here we ali etand upon u level, and you know no more thnn I, nor I th;in you, if wo will not accept these last named as truths. You guve me an hour or two of interesting re-earch by your out 6noken opinion Tollocli." I hardly knew what agnostism did tench before, but thinking that I ii ight I e advocatint; the doctrines belonging to the creed of old called agnoetae, I concluded that I had better look them up. I was frurprisei to find they dated back to tho fourth century when under Theo j hrouius the Cappalocean they questioned the Omniscience of (jo i. And aain, under a deacon of Alexandria in thetixth century, made tho cuim tnat Jesus w a omy a man and as that ignorant of many things he won d huve known had he been tiod. And, that like 1'aul he had no very g.iod idea of the time of the final judgment, but thought it, and thought it as being very close at hand, even in that centurv perhaps. I guess priest and bell mu.t have been too much for theae lat named agnostics, for thev seem to have eKipred several generations, or decades rather, after this. Their doctrines have better play now than then, or it looks to at any rata, although I am not exactly versed yet in their peculiar holdings to lay. Looking over that articlo I am Inclined to think it is not agnostic, at ioasl as old aqnobticiera tauuht. For it taught tüat we know nothing of what we are, how we got here, or how the earth or the planetary evstein of w hich it forms a part came into existence. Now, I think that science teaches un how the earth came up to what it is, and I claim that we do know fcu:r.ethiiij of thia and how we are formed and where ut what this formation ca led the human body pav-ei af:ervitj di-iolving, and this ia ii. ore thnn agosticism tied to claim at leaiL Oi course we wou d not expert it to be learned in theve matters at its starting point. It could not know even more than Christianity about some things until it had been taught. It is or.lv in the last hundred years thai much has been known of the human body, and its computation, and how frail that is. It is only "til years on the L'-d of the coming June since in tho cenvent of Minerva at Kmc, Ualileoon bended knees before priests and cardinals abjured the hereby which taught that this earth was round, was not tlie center of the world and th sun did move around it. but on the contrary the earth, a very etna 1 speck in the universe, went around th nun. This abjuration saved the few remaining years of his life to him. We who know how s.ich truths as the abuve were considered dogma-, heresies, and as such not in accord with revelation and ho y scripture, cannot much wonder that learning in such matters is yet oniv in the primary gr,id -n. "i'obock." I make the claim Hg.iin that it is only in revelation that we have any authority fur a peiaona inäuhe (iod. and here I am at much at home as youraeif, and perhaps more bo. Who knows or can be the jude here hut ourselves? It ia not often that Talmate says anything I care to quote For great man as the maftHes take him to be. I consider him at most times to be nothing better than a sentimental hoodoo preacher. If he has ever written anything, that wi 1 live you will Got 'he has appropriated the original thought from some of the numerous ireatiwes he keeps on hands by Uu'ion. and then has covered this thought with his own prolix imigsry of words. Yet, in this week' paper he holds my assertion out, and it certainly, divested of many words, is truth. In speaking of tbe dream of John (Iardock anil what it led to he attya: "If you do not beliete these thing, then vou must discard all testimony and refuse to accept any kind of authoritative witness." And all the authoritative witness wo have of an infinite (Jod or an indnito lm

mortal state ha como by dreams and visions; discard these and youlatand alone on earth. " Ida S. March 30, '93. PATHWAY OF THE SPIRIT. "Julio's Wite" I)cnle a Book She Has Keen Heading and Srnri Greeting. Dear Howards Truly we are showinj to the world that we mean just what we say when we call our club a "literary club" now that the page is filled with leiten each week, showing clearly great depth of study. Brother "Howard," I believe it is to you we are indebted for setting the ball rolling in this direction, ae well as many others in the pat. Oh! did you think we'd forgotten the past. No, indeed, nor will we ever forget it while the life's blood courses through theee mortal bodies. We are not unmindful that to you and eister "Maud Map e" we owe our very existence as a club. 1 wieh to epeak of a book on the club li.st that I have been reading entitled, "The Pathway of the Spirit," by John liamhn I'ewey, M. I). I think it a very well written book and one tfiat might be read with protit by every thinking person. It ia dedicated thus: "To all who look for tho promised 'comforter,' that quickening and reveahng 'ai'irit of truth, winch procee ieth from the Father,' and guideth 'into all truth,' and wnich is vet to be poured out upon ah flesh and lift the world into the fellowship with Christ in tho perfect life of divine soneoip and brotherhood thin book is aliectionatelv inscribed by a fellowServant and disciple." Part 1. "immediate inspiration and knowledge of tiod the etipremo necoedty and universal po-eibility of man." I'art 2. "Christian the?ophy defined and illustrated as distinguished from the ti.eodopliy and oucuitirui wf antiquity and the far East." On thiH subject, after hi.ving discussed at pome length, the author says: "It would appear tnat unless the ciaini for supreme realization of Jesus through divine guidance and help be proven a myth, and the teaching accredited to h.iu a fallacy, that his leaderediip, doctrine and meihod must prove in o hi dhect and be ptui possible to us. It is for this re:on that we t-ueit to eet them forth in t ie r, fu 1 contra! with the higneat aud best tho wor d preats outsido of him. If we succeed in ih.H we bhall help the earnest n-ektr alter the higher realization to intel.iteul'V chooce that course which aha.l moat apwadily aud suraiy secure him the divine results in personal experience. The fandament.il diiference in toe basic teaching of the Christian and the oriental the eophy necessarily involves a corresponding difference in their idftal of attainments as well e-t their means and methods of reii'.irati -n." Part 3. "The gospel of the kingdom of God, or the open secret of Jesus." Here the author explains fro n his standpoint the following points: "The kingdom ol ( rod," "Nature of the Christ m-s-Buk'"," "Man a eli-determining nower,'"idrth of humauity," "The law ol atuin' nv-nt," ' Tr.e blinding power of tradition," ''Plantiug and reaüing," A life, not a i r aed, demanded." Under thin heading Mr. Ieweysays: ".so long an men vxpect to had ealvation in tbis or that form of doctrine and worsnip, eo long us their thought of salvation is to escape the tied and secure Hih hcuvtm of another world by s me oU'u iai work wrought in their behalf by another, they ire fee iing and depending on pagan tares nd the cliiUl" of t-uperstition and not on the wheat and faith of Cnrist's gospel, lie held up ani olered a hie. to be believed in and sought uf:er now, to be atiHinci aud lived ia this word and no: a creed to be acc-V-ed aa a condition of aalVtt:on in unoiher world." 1'arcL "Inpir t'.ioo and Divine Illumination; Their pcitic Natures and Distinguishing Oiaract ristic.."' "What is iiiipii anon?" is asked and answered bv lLo uuthcr, who looks at his subject from within, ami hia bidriuul viBion eeems to be unueuaily clear, but it ned to i-e read to appreciate its depth and beauty. A word of groeling to members. "V. Pnratee," you reinein'ier it ia said in the ihble, "it is more bies.-ed to give than to receive," so "Incog" and I have great reason to rejoice if by any word of ours you were induced ev n ' after many days" to reiurn to your tirt love, w ho had never ceased to mourn yout absence.
