THE NEWS OF
 WlCKENBURC

Wickenburg, Ariz, April 22.--(Spec- 1 ial Correspondence of The Eepubli
 oan.)-In accordance with a time hOnored custom the close of the school
 year here yesterday was attended with a picnic given to the children, in which most of the adults of the town joined
 and succeeded in making the young fClks happy. The scene of the festivi- ties was the grove at the north end of Henry Wickenburg's ranch, locally
 known as North Park and at an early hour the children, accompanied by their parents and older relatives, gathered in large numbers to yield to
 the dissiDations usually indulged in,
 viz, peanuts and red lemonade. Tha children. happy in the thought of the .lCng vacation before them, entered into the many games with will and made merry till late in the afternoon, when the older ones introduced the national game, and two hines. chosen
 by Jack Murphy and H. w. Stevens, played a match game of several hotiy cOntssteI innings, resulting in score of 70 : in favOr of Ca9cain Murphy team. The game was a'3Iy unpired by
 1 actel as official scorer The feature of the game was the double play" of Captain Murphy, who played second base for his own team and also pitched the last two innings fer the opposing side, with the natural result as re- ported above. Henry Davenport in jured the index finger of his right hand while playing, first base.
 As previously stated, yesterday was the end of the school year at the university on the banks Of the Has sayampa," and the annual E'commence- ment hop" was therefore held last evening in the recitation Fall of the university It was, as usual, attend ed by the 'burgs -four hundred" who indulged in terpsichorean revelry un- til the sun peeped above the distant hilltops. While ths' ballroom of the WalJorf-Astoria' has probably been the scene of many more brilliant so- cial assemblases-sti1l is never held mcre truly enjoyable gathering than did the old walls of the university last night The guest. of honor was the re- tiring, precet8ress. Niss Dolly Mckee. who leaves for. her home In southern California today. Among the m4ly guests wsre Mir. and Mrs. Japnes K Murphy and Miss Murphy of Black Rock; Miss Bacon of Weaver, Mir. Charles Genung of Peoples valley, and MT Claude Brown of Williams. The music was furnished by the Born Bros orchestra, and refreshments were served by Caterer Yariye of Phoenix. It was by far the most re- chcrche social event Of the season.
 MT Blauvelt came down from Pres~ colt last evening and expects to go out into the Santa Domingo country for a few days. F7ITZWILLIAA1S.

part of Miss Willard's very self, bsar- ing a closer relation to her than ex- ists between many daughters and their mothers Her love for the great lead
 CT ssmed composite of all loves; it
 was that of a mother for her child and of a child for her mother; it was that of a lover, friend, companion and | counsellor. There was in it even an element of worshipful adoration | combined with the wise watchful care with which a strong friend guards and protects a loved one. More truly than most other love was it's absolute free dom from the faintest shadow of per sOnal jealousy. Other friends came into Miss WilIard's life for it was a many-sided life; her interests were worldwide and many great natures Wsre attracted to her winsome person. ality, but this early love Of Miss Cor don's never wavered, never knew doubt CT shadow of turning, never put the thought of self before the interests of her friends. T hope it will ncI seem irreverent," said Miss Gordon at one time, ''but l took as my mO.ao long ago., I love then that love her. and no one can love her too well to please me"
 Frances Willard was a genius, but Anna Gordon made the environment in which that genius came to its fulI- est development. She planned the trips; she cared for the finances; she sheltered and protected from petty cares and from routine work; she made t possible for that mighty in tellect to give itself without reserve, without restraint CT hindrance to the work to which she was called.
 They were constant companions for twenty-one years, and yet during that time Miss Gordon carried on a large and varied work of her own As worlds superintendent of loyal tenn Perance legion work she planned much and wisely. The beautiful Willard fountain, which stands at the entrance of Willard hall On ons of the princiDa. business streets of Chicago. is the en- bodiment of her one thought and work.

the scale of life The traveller resting
 in some shady bower of Africa or h. dia may, perchance, behold a singular phenomenon. The leaves of the forest
 strewn around him-some yet green,
 others withered-have become ami
 mate, are moving, are swarming about | him. An army of leaves has sprung
 up as if by magic. If the traveller is
 a tyrO in science. he is likeIy to rub his | eyes and suspect some trick of Ssnse. | If, however, the observer has some | knowledge of the insect world, he will
 at once recognize in these mimic leaves
 the phyllium, or leaf insect.
 Here is a lesson in the ways of the infinite wisdom UnnUmbered ages ago the phyllium found itself face to face with the stern problem of life. It's home was the forest which held few friends, but swarmed with enemies
 red in tooth and claw" What is to
 become of the poor phyllium, with it's unarmored body and sluggish flight? We cannot attribute to so rudimentary
 an intelligence the Napolscnic project
 of conQuering the forest and turning
 it into an instrument; yet that is pre-
 cisely what occurs
 At first the phyllium lives by skulk-
 ing, and is the "2rtfuI dodger" of the ins ct world. The leaves are it's food. and covering closely amidst the fOli- age our insect leads a hazardous and fearful life. No doubt many individu- als are picked up by sharp-eyed birds or hungry beasts. But the few that lie
 most snugly among the leaves and agree best with the surrounding color ing. escape the devOurer. These sur Vive and leave to- their offspring d slight stock of adapted instinct. Tha selective operation goes on from age to age, all phyllia which do not study it's advantages going to the wall. The survivors become all the while more closely adapted to the circumstances. At length the keenest eye can hardly distinguish leaf from insect. In the long process of generations the phyl- Hum ceases tO' bei an artful dOdger; he is now rather a gentle knight of the forest, harmless Robin Hood, whose chosen livery is the leafy green. He Is at one with his environment; indeed. he has subdued the environment and turned it to his own advantage.
 By this one example, know all. In it you are face to face with the law of life. In all the vast range from the lowIiest to the most exalted type, there Is uO 0AC6pIlOu. IL IS GOU ; way Ill His world, and not the less His way that he chooses, in His wisdom, to work through the life processes Of tho creature. God is back of it all, and in it all; man is simply the highest ex- ample and consummate fruit of the process.
 Moreover, the higher the type of life the vaster the disprO2ortion between the ability and the required achieve ment. YCu come into the world rela- lively more helpless than the leaf in sect, you are confronted by an enTlr- onment far more magnificent and ter rible. The imagination cannot picture a more formidable enterprise than that to which you are called by the word of Gcd. Mans environment is all that is comprehended in the new earth 1 and heaven, all that lies on the way to it.

OUR SUNDAY SERMON
By Rev ChaS. n. Shepherd, D. 0, Pastor Union Presbyterian
 Church, Evanston, Wy.
REDEMPTION BY CONQUEST.

He that overcometh shall inherit all things gs''-Revelations xxi: '.
 Here we have the climax of earthly contrast. The chapter opens with d vision of the new earth and heaven, freed forever from every ill, invested with uttermost beauty, exalted to the height of joy and blessed beyond inn agination in the presence of God. All this we are told may De the possession of man, the pilgrim and stranger, the "martyrsd slave of time"; and pos session not of accident. not of fiat, but by right and heirship.
 The terms in which the contrast is expressed are symbolic. so that they may be filled up by any conceivable content. There is no circumstance Of woe which may not rightly be attliD uted to mans present lot; there is no element of felicity which is Dot com prehended in his heavenly patTimOny. The soiled wanderer through slopghs, death valleys and the realm Of despair. suddenly appea-s as the conQueror of the physical the freeman of the unI- verse, holding in fee the ineffable opu- lence of heaven.
 The fitness of such transformation must lie in the condition which is at tached to it. All thought or caprice or arbitrary will has passed, or is fast passing, from our conception of God Whatever he does is done In harmony with his own being and the broad in- terests of the universe. Here, then, Is the principIe,-he inherits who over comes. Man cannot stumble into his heavenly glory, but must achieve it. Grace cannot be hung about him as an external ad0rnment, but is rather the efflorescence of a life taken up by the spirit of God.
 Attending first to this provisC-this condition upon which the tranSfOIma- tioE and inheritance are promised let us ask If there is any way to put it in terms of universal law. We arc to remember that man is strangely linked to the entire creation. In hls material basis he is one with the oys- ter. In his eating and drinking, his growth and decay; in his loves and his hates. his pains and his death-he has a hemisphere in common with the brutes Most impressive of all is the likeness of struggle. The whole crea- tion groans and travails together. A picture of all life is Mer1lns Hall, where
 - four great zones of sculpture, ses
 betWiXt
 With many mystic symbol, gird the
 hall
 And in the lowest, beasts are staying
 men;
 And in the second men are staying
 beasts; And in the third are warriors, perfect
 men;
 And in the fourth are men with grow
 ing wings"
 The man of science uses, in this con- nection, a term of deepest significance environment. In the scientific view the successful life is not merely the life fitted to it's conditions, but the life that actually constrains the conditions to its service. We may illusrate this law Of envir- l onment by cases taken anywhere along |

DISTINGUISHED GUESTS
The Two Highest Officers Of inc ".
 CT. U. Will Soon Visit Phcenix.

It is expected that the two higheat officers of the national Woman s Christian Temperance Union will soon visit Phoenix, the president Mrs. l.. M. N. Stevens, Portland, Maine, and the vice president-at-large, Miss Anna A. Gordon. Chicago. It is apropos, because of their coming, to giys a brief sketch Of these women who are known around the world as friends Of God and home and every land"
 February IT, 1898, Miss Frances E. Willard, who held the office of presl- dent was called to the higher life Before her departure Miss Willard said of Mrs. Stevens. who is now her successor, as sweet and wholesome as her own piney woods, as strong as her granite rocks, as steadfast as her ocean waves, and yet as easily moysd by humanity's need as the pure lily in the summer breeze"
 Her first public work was in the school room as teacher, but shs early left that sphere to assume wifely du- ties. Her husband is in full accord with her principles and life work and
 
 the multitude of her c0-workers who are entertained in their charmingIy hospitable New England home Their only child, Mrs. Leavitt, is one of the state sIJlerintendsnts of Maine.
 Mrs. Stevens first met Miss Willard at Old Orchard, Maine, in 1875, at which time they organized the Wo- mans Christian Temperance Union Of Maine. and it's presidency was soon offered her
 Tor several years Mrs. Stevens was known as General Neal DowS. chief cOadjutor, and in the latter years Of his life, especially, he laaned on her as his trusted friend and adviser, and since his death she is recognized throughout the entire state as the lsader of the prohibition movement. throwing the force of her strong per scnality into the battle which resulted in such signal victory
 In addition to her distinctive tenn perance work Mrs. Stevens is well known in other reform and phiIan- thropic enterprises. She is connected with an industrial school for girls: she was Maine's choice for the board of lady managers in the worlds Col umbian exposition and served in that board on most important committees: her work for the Armenians has been widely commended; she was for six teen years treasurer of the national Council of.WOmen and has filled many other positions of responsibility and honor. When abroad she was an eS- pecial guest of the lord mayors on the queens birthday. and we find Lady Henry Somerset speaking of her as a valued and trusted friend"
 But the WOman's Christian Te1r- pe1ance Union is her first and ehier love outside of her home, and to It's interests she has devoted herself with lavish generosity for about twenty five years.

TROUBLE WHEN THE TYPHOON
COMES.

Manila Cor. Chicago Record: When
the typhoon comes there is trouble on
sea and land. The United States cable
ship Hooker. which Went on the rocks
at Corregidor. still lies helpless, and no
one here knows what is happening to
her. The waves are high n fierce and
the wind is blowing a gale. An anxious
group is gathered in the office of Colo
mel Thompson, who as chief signal officer
has charge of the ship. She was on her
way to Hongkong ten days ago, when
her master attempted to pass up the bay
where there was no channel and ran hard
and fast on the hidden rocks. But the
soldier who serves OF land, as we'll as
the sailor, feels the effect of the ty-
phoon. The recruit suffers most. for he
trusts in the beaming skies and in the
calm moon that sails across the heavens
from night until morning, making out
post duty in dreary places tolerable. He
does not knoW the meaning Of the cloud
banks in the west, and laughs when the
older ones predict rain. He does not take
it seriously when the drops begin to
patter in the dust. nor yet when the
shower comes down. The veteran digs
the ditch about his tent deeper and dis
poses of his belongings in places he
believes to be dry, While his new mate
sings popular songs.

rain, but never in his life has he seen
such floods. The heavens seem to be
n vast cloud filled with rain, and every
drop trying to get to the ground first.
The rain is caught by the. wilma and
blown through every crack and %crevice,
much as the fine snow of a blizzard is
sifted into the cabin of the rancher on
the plains. In a half hour the roads are
running water and the fields are ponds.

could fall in so short a time. Then the
