Union memorlal services in honor of Wil- illam McKinley were held at the tent, Twen- ty-third and M streets, at 11 o'clock yester- day. It is estimated that over 1,000 people attended these services. All of the local clergymen were prosent and occupled seats upon the platform, which was festooned with flags draped in mourning, and a large photo- graph of the former president. All of those who could procure them wore the favorite flower of the late president, a pink carna- tion. Rev. Robert L. Wheeler, pastor of the First Presbyterian church here for ffteen years, delivered the principal address. He chose for his theme, “Faith, the immortal element in character,” and used the thir- teenth verse of the eleventh chapter of He- brews: “These dled in faith, not having re- ceived the promises, but having seen them trom afar off, and were persuaded of them, and embraced them.” He sald, In part: Sir Walter Scott tells In a masterly way the story of Old Mortality, that loving ad- mirer of the old Covenanters who devoted Lis time and energies to the restoration of thefr monuments. - The touch of time had mossed the marbles where rested thelr names and recited their virtues—and the:e names of whom the world was not worthy were passing Into oblivion. Then Old Mor- tality, as he came fo be called, wandered over Scotland's Kirkyards scraping away the moss, chiseling anew the letters and sacred story of the heroism of those im- mortal on a younger generation might read et the names of the men who saved the libertles and faith of Auld Scotia In an eternal perpetulty. In our fext Paul was dolng much the same eort of work. The young church was slow to take on the greatness of character it must be possessed of if it fill the heav- enly dream Paual's mind visloned n the coming empire of righteousness by the faith of Jeaus Christ lo he points out the names of the herole dead of the old church ~Abraham, Jacob, Moses and David, and declared “these held faith until death, they saw the promises afar oft by faith, they werfe persuaded of them, and embraced them falth then was the element In them which gave the brilllancy of immortality ‘haracter and names. ve gathered about the first annual milestone In our journey since we kneit ation at the grave of s Featest men-—great not because he a loyal soldier, not alone because he was the best loved president, but because he posgessed that element of faith by which he saw beyond the vision of ordinary men the things of tomorrow, and | In the language of the text, “he was per- suaded of them and embraced them.'= We had just entered the gateways of the new century, the outlines of the nation's larger lite dimly lined the future. No man sinee the days of Lincoln read so accurately the | divine destiny of this republic. Mr, Mc- | Kinley could not with his great faith be- | ileve that this nations’ future was con- | fined by the Golden Gate on the west or | Castle Gatden on the east, but eyesight | overlooked the seas—"he saw the promise | from afar off and was persuaded of them." | He set the stars of Old Glory in the Orl- ent, by falth he compassed the isles of the | seas with constitution and law, and beyond our sea-gates poured the light of our o lization until the world was belted with the larger hope of our larger life. Wash- Irgton at Bunker Hill by falth saw the col. onles take on constititional life; Lincoln at | Gettysburg saw by faith a new nation rise from the smoke of a cruel civil war—but it | was reserved for Willlam McKinley to ex- tend Columbla’'s dominion worldwide fll\l“ introduce her, a living, reigning queen, among the powers of th earth.

At the Second English Lutheran church a unlon meeting was held this afternoon and addresses were made by all the preach- ers of that denomination in the city, ex- tolling the late president in his public and | private career. Tonight at the Broadway Baptist church Rev. Carter Helm Jones, in the presence of large congregation, delivered a sermon in which he paid high tributes to the mem- ory of President McKinley, and a special musical program appropriate to the occa- sion was rendered Joseph Joins. ST. JOSEPH, Mo. Sept. 14.—McKinley memorial services were held in all of the churches of this city today. The services were largely attended.

Considerable activity s being displayed among the mines of the Ragged Top district of late and the work which is being done there is uncovering some very good ore bodies. In the Cameo group, owned by Ros- | siter and associates of this city, a shaft 7x11 {in the clear hus been sunk for a distance of {110 feet. This ghaft has been following down | a small vertical and at the present depth | has struck a shoot of ore in the flat for-| matlon which runs $10 a ton. This shoot | has been prospected by a twenty-five-foot | drift and the ore is growing a little better | as it is being gone in on. Mr. Rossiter, | { who 1s ruperintending the work, has stopped development on the shoot and will continue | work in the shaft, which will be sunk until it reaches the sandstone contact, which lies {under the lime. On this contact he expects | to fAind that the four-foot vertical which he | has been following will develop into a large shoot of ore, and that the vein which comes {10 the surface in the shaft is but a stringer | leading from it. This is & new proposition tn | this district, for heretofore it has not been | thought worth while to look for ore on the | sandstone contact and little attention has | been prid to the small shoots which are met | | with in the various workings in the neigh- | {borhood in this formation. In the Dacey shaft, which is close to the Cameo, and down 166 feet, the sandstone was gone through | about 135 feet from the surface, and above it and resting on it the shaft cut through an eighteen-foot shoot of ore, but it was the intention to sink the shaft to the quartzite, s0 little attentlon was paid to this ore body | until the work in the Cameo again called | attention to it, and the Dacey company will | now begin operations looking toward opon- ing it up.

ROCHFORD, 8. D., Sept. 14.—(Special.)— The Black Hills Copper company has re- | linquished the bond which it took several months ago on the Benedict group of claims | to a Montana | in the Hornblende distriot, syndicate, which 18 represented in the Black Hille by Percy Train of Butte. The orlg inal owners are Mendenhall, Hooper, Woods and Lawis, wha hefore giving a hond on the it extensively. The group contains 200 acres, and has cxposed on it one of the largest ledges in Penning- ton county. The Black Hills Copper com- pany took the option on the group early last spring and since that time has done | considerable development work on it. A new incline shaft was stafted by the com- puny on the vein, and a Chilean mill moved onto the ground from Smith gulch, where it has been in successtul operation for sev- eral months. The incline shaft I now down 135 feet, and Supegintendent Taylor of the Black Hills Copper.company is au- | thority for the statement that the ore taken | from this incline has paid for the work of sinking it, as well as reimbursed the com- pany for the expense it has been to in In- stalling the mill and other machinery. The Black Hills Copper company will ap ply itselt exclusively in the future to the development of its group of copper-bearing claims on Copper Reef mountain. On this has a great deal of development work done one incline which has been driven on the ground is 800 feet long, and from that level a cross-cut has been driven to the west, which is thought to be near the main ledge | toward which it now fn about 100 feet, the slates through which it is belng driven being heavily impregnated with copper, while oc- casional small stringers of ore are en- countered which catry a small percent- is belng driven.

The ore occurs just be- | low the limestone and on top of the sand- | stone. The Mercur company in the same nefgh- | borhood is.doing a great deal of work, and | is about ready to begin operations on its | 100-ton cyanide plant, which it proposes ts put up on Spearfish creek.

The group is owned by a company of Sloux City and eastern South Dakota people, & number of whom were out here last week to investigate the property and examine the work which has been done on it this epring and summer. The devel- opment of the property has exposed a num- ber of good velns of ore, and the main working & 110-foot shatt, is following down an eighteen-foot vein of free milling ore, which averages better than $§ 2 ton.
