Hi . BUrL ARP QUOTR8 8CRIPTURR8. He Seema to be At Home With the Bible—The Dream Book is a Humbug:. Atlanta Constitution. “And in that day the young men shall see visions and the old men shall dream dreams; and the handmaidens shall prophesy.” That is what Peter told the people on the day of Pente cost. And Peter believed that the days foretold by the Prophet Joel had already come, for the devout men from every nation under heaven were there prophesying and speaking in every lan guage. The people said they were drunk, but Peter said, “.No,” for it is only 9 o’clock in the morning.” I reckon the topers drank more in the evening, just as tney do now, and went to bed drunk. But it has always perplexed me to find out when the age or period of working miracles and see ing visions ceased and why the power was takeo-away from the men of God. Paul could work miracles to save or to heal others, but bad to die by the exe cutioner. The blood of the martyrs was the seed of the church, but has the tune passed wheu dreams and visions are of no force or meaning? 1 was ruminating about dreams, because last night 1 dreamed not less than three hour* in about half a minute. The clock was striking IS and 1 dreamed it was the fire bell and I saw the rising smoke and then the tUtne of the fire' where the hotel was burning. 1 saw firemen climbing ladders and descend- * *“f Tiifr and i hiidrt u in U arms.

'■> * No, I do not. ' The dream book is a humbug. But I do believe that some- tames there ore spiritual visions tbat come in sleep, but these are very rare. Somq are too well authenticated to leave any doubt. Swedenborg had many of them. Tartiuian, a great composer, says that the devil appeared to him one night and challenged him to play him some music, and he com posed the “Devil’s Sonata” in a dream, and the devil sang it and danced it, and Tartiuian put it on paper when be awaked. Coleridge says he composed his poem of “Kubla Khan” in a cream, but could only recall 300 Hues of it next morning. Abstruse problems io mathematics have been solved in dreams, but the most reasonable ex planation of all these is that the tired mind bad rett from sleep and became more sensitive and acute. * Whether we have good dreams or bad dreams depends almost altogether upon what we had for supper and how much we ate of ||.

Five years ago he and Mr. Nat Kaiser, of this city, purchased a tract of land in McDuffie Coupty, including something more than 500 acres. Upon this is located what is known as the Columbia mine. This property, from records in the possession of the owners, was worked from 1822 to 1858, millions of dollars’ worth of gold being taken from it in this time. Since Mr. Op- pedheittt came into possession of the Columbia it has been worked constant ly, and always on a paying basis. The owners at one time were offered $1 ,- 000,000 for this property by a New York syndicated A short time ago Mr. Oppenheim was approached by W. H. Fluker, of McDuffie County, the son in law of >{rt. Smith, Georgia’s woman tuinei, and told of the existence of rich gold deposits in Wilkes County, thirty miles from the Colombia mine and fifteen miles from Washington. Being im pressed with Mr. Fluker’s description of the land and his confidence in the existence of gold in that section, Mr. Oppenheim, with Mr. Bickart and Mr. Blutbenthal and Mr. Fluker, organized the 'Columbia Mining Company. W. A. Storey, an expert in mine prospect ing, was sent to this ssction to make tbs srisnlitt’s search for the bidden wealth. After days of disappointment Mr. Storey made a minute examination of the soil where the Lnumer mins ia now located. From the conditions of the wrouuti be was inline need to sink a shaft at a certain point. This ho did, and after going down into the earth for a depth of twelve feet the veig of ore was struck. „ * Pre vtnn* to Mr. Storey’s being aunt to pn-epect for gold a one-year lease purpose of prospecting was ob- up-’U the laud.

Brougham ia wrong, for men and women who have had part of the skull removed and left the brain exposed have dreamed while the doc tor* looked on and saw lbs brain dilate and pulsate and become excited and disturbed and the patient would tell of a bad dream. When the sleep was sweet the brain was m perfect repose. What a wonderful piece of mechan ism is this body of ours. It can all sleep sat e the heart and lungs and ar teries. They never sleep nor get a . day off for rest. Just think of it. For seventy-five years this heart of mine has not failed to beat time for every moment of my existence and send its warm blood to every part of my body. Whether I am awake or asleep, it is ever at its poet of duty. Poor thing— I know il is tired. And so with my lungs that cease not day or night to bring the heart its food, its strength and power. The will, the brain, the eyes and ears—the' sense of smell and taste and feeling—all get sleep and rest and awake renewed, but the heart and lungs can never ieet. Their rest U death. But the mystery is how is the brain connected with the will. When the will is asleep the brain seems to run riot and to revel in cu rious and fantastic fancies. It is a boy out of school. It is very like the effect of opium on the senses as described by DeQuincey m his confessions. The will seems to be the strongest and most responsible faculty of man. The heart is commonly called the seat of the af- ..factions and. -tmotions—jiLJact, the very soul of man, and David says the heart is sihful above all things and des perately wicked, but that, of course, is figurative. The heart is but a lump of flesh—a machine—an engine, as were, for a mechanical purpose. has nothing to do with affections or emotions or sins or crime. It may be badly diseased t^nd the man not know it. If his stomach is out of order, he knows it quickly and feels sick all over. The will, and the brain, which it the seat of thought and reason, make up the spiritual pert of man, bat how they are connected la known only to the Creator. Generally they work in har Sometime* they do not, for irated Coouwlock mine nf Colorado, I which assayed f 10,UUU to a ton of the j gold bearing soil. The corroctnees of these figures is attested by the stlida- fiu of tnuee by about the figure* were obtained. The yield of the I turner mine is all Ihg more remarkable from the fact that the dirt and rock Ironr which the ore was taken included paits of the foot-wall and ifingiug-wall o! the pure vein, and did not represent the best part o: the-lead. This reauli a vouched for in the affidavit of W. II. Fluker, who, under oath, s acurs that he carefully sampled the vein of gold ore on the Latimer mine in Wilkes County, Georgia, in the presence of L. W. Lati mer, and that the average sample was taken from the entire vein as exposed. The deponent further swears that he made a true and careful astay of the bregoing sample,and it showed a value of $22,640 per ton. Mr. Oppenheim has in his possession a lump of gold weighing 1^5 penny weights. This was milled ouFbf 1,407 )ounds of'gold o» taken by Walter D. Storey from the Latimer mine and milled on the mill of the Columbia Mining Company. This single lump of gold >s worth $1,700. There are in sight so far in the vein just unearthed which can be panned out into pure gold for a mere nominal cost about eleven tons of earth. When the gold is taken from the ore it will approximate very close to $300,000 in value. This is but the first step in the work of unearthing the full deposit of the precious metal. Thu full extent of the mine’s wealth, of course, is brf conjecture, but from early evidences it iiunot improbable that it maybe the beginning of a flood of treasure from tbe bosom of Georgia rivaling'in extent and quality some of the gifts the West has made to the enrichment of the world’s treasury. This gold land has been the property of flon. L. W. Latimer since 1869, be ing an original grant from the gov ernment. Mr. Latimer at one yme was a member of the House of Hepie- sentatives. For a long time he has been aware of the existence of gold upon this land, the superficial evidences of it upon the surface of tbe earth cast up by hidfian v ent to warrant the con Lienee in the the shining particles froia the yard of Ins little home, and tomorrow he would go to the edge of a nearby cteek and fill his sack with earth. Often he might be seen with pan (Hied with earth seal ed by the stream washing for gold. Never a day passed but his labor was rewarded to a more or leee extent, and in this fashion his living was made. It is said he washed out each day an amonnt of gold varying from one dol lar to twenty dollars.'.JLn this way the old man has dwelt, within the very shadow of the shaft which marks the existence of gold enough to make him wealthy beyond his powers of concep tion. GREENVILLE WINS THE COUNTY LINE A Long Standing Law Suit Has Been Decided by the Snpreme Court. Ch arise ton News and Courier. The Supreme Court h*s decided an important and interesting suit, which has been befoie the public for some time. The case was relative to the boundary line between Spartanburg and Greenville counties. The decision does not recognize the old Indian line The result of th’e opinion has been entitely in favor of Greenville County and snstams the contention of that county.. The General Assembly de cided upon a commission to survey the line in question and the Court sustains the verdict of that commission, which had been overruled by Judge Gage, and taxes the position that the com mission’s > report must be sustained unless fnud had been alleged or proven, and that unless fraud was shown it was to be presumed that the commission carried out the work mapped out for it by tbe provisions of the General Assembly. ' In tbe brief of four hundred and fotty pages submitted by one side the following is a condensed statement o! the case: - ‘ “ This action was instituted Septem her 27, 1897, in the Court of Common fendants answered, except tbe Pelham Mil.s. On April 2,1898, the case was referred, by consent, to the Master of Spartspburg County to take the test! mony and report the same to Court, which the Master did, after holding several references. The case was tried btfore Judge Gage at 8 tanburg in Septexber, 1899, an filed his decree dismissing the com plaint on October 10, 1889. From said decree plaintiff on October 14, 1899, gave notice of intention to ap peal to the Supreme Court.” Tbe position of Spartanburg County and Uui of those opposing is given in part in the conclusions of Judge Gage’s decision,.in which he set aside the finding of ihe commissionets. Judge Gage held, among other things: “ I conclude, therefore, that Mill*’ Statistics is only an hutorical work, and tbe description given there of the duputed line is not of binding force. Mills’ Atlas throws no light on it, ex cept it shows Hutchings Mill to be on the Greenville side. I havu found no statute which change# the boundary described in ttieee two Acts, the one of March, 1785, and the other March, 1786. “ My conclusion, therefore, is that iha old ladiao line of Cooks’ survey is the true line betwixt the counties, without reference to the eourau named 10 udhite sod without reference to Abner’s Mill, if that be so,aad If the Hie located by the report does not (<*rm thereto, then the report ie aod tbe award cannot be enforced. “ It awy be that the Harmon line in in the neighborhood of the Indian bouooary; imi tfip very object of this surrey wee accuracy It la admitted on ail hands that a part of the I‘*lh*m Mills lies io Greenville; the coatee! ie about the mill erected ia tbe past ten tear*, wbsrv does it lie? Ail lbs rm- veycir* iHtily the Indian lias caa bi accurately laid down; it kr not a case for appruximstlo—, It would be aa- poAtehie to go through the testimony lu show ths character of the euirey. 11 satis(Ws sm that the work wan net with examaeae, that la eevwrai tsmcea.lt ie mao if rally erroneous, aad at a permanent work It is of no value. ** Ai«d Ihie leads mi to t cooetdem- Uou of the last question, to wit: •-Moili the report b* rvoummttted or rejected, aad if rejected, shall aew cummisetnaera be named to true line? “ 1 am of the opinion ll*| he w ws to recommit the matter to the three genUeuvo who have already mads the attempt at location. Thera ie tooM authority for Ihe appoiatmeet of a aew cummiaetoo to execute the work; but ia this cam the defendant w ia aiweest u of this disputed territory and has nothing to complain ef. ** The plaintiff restate the appoint ment of cummiaeiouer* by the Court, on (he ground that the location of the cuuaty lias la a qaestioo of policy for the law-making power, aad not of law for the judiciary. Bat ia this State the same organic law which created the law-mating power aod the Court created also the counties aad set their boundaries. There is as little authority for tbe Iweislalury to Intervene as for ~r*n****i»w~'= * 1 incline to the opinion that what is a true county line ie, noder our Con stitution, a question *of law aod not of Mlicy. However, without reference o the legal right* of either aide to lave a diiection by the Court to new commisHionera, I thftak a right adjust ment of the controversy can be beet and quickest reached by vacating the award and stopping there. Wise counsel and mutual co-operation can do the rest. “ It is, therefore, ordered, adjudged and decreed that the award made here- n by I. H. Harrison aod W. J. Kirk, dated 11th April, 1886 be, and the aame is hereby, set aside and made null and void. A . “ It is further ordered that the com plaint be dismissed.” The Supreme Court overrules Judge The Pelham Mill property er the decision now goes entirely into Greenville County, and it U estimated by citizens of Spartanburg County that from $200,000 to $300,000 worth of property that haa been in Spartanburg County will under the decision filed go into Greenville Coun ty.’ It appears that the decision ends the case.
