GODS HOUSES

BAPTIST CHURCH.

Rev. pr. Halseys text yesterday morning was What I; My Life?'' The following sentences a,e extracts from .the discourse:
 I am a worker or an idger in the worlds great harvest field; serving God or serving Mammon; making the world better or worse; a light or Q stumbling block; a help or a hin- drance; living for time or for eternity.
 1 am mortal. There is but a step between me and death. What I do must be done quickly
 l am also immortal. The body dies, but not the soul. The dust returns to its kindred dust, but the spirit goes to the God who gave it. I am a nor tai, responsible, eternity-b bound crea- lure, as weak as water when my strength is opposed to the strength of ear,h's elements, but possessing a soul worth more than all the gold i Arizona
 The generations of this world rolf cn like ths waves of the sea, l.rief, anL yet endless. As the rains descend and the vapors return again to heaven, so, swiftly and silently, come and go the 'rCNAAo VI AiOoC hCEoLo eAC U 'C4 dCoCcAuil1S and ascending the skies. With every tick of the clock a child is born, and with every tick of the clock a soul passes from time to eternity.
 It is only when mans life is pro jected into eternity that it's value is seen to be immeasurable.
 Where are the mound builders? Gone forever Who were they? Ne man can answer. They lived; they died; their very memory perished.
 Life looks small except when seen as tha portal of eternity.
 In how many ways do we see men using life? Some make plaything O, 1t, use it for a foot bail. Some use it to build up fortune which becomes a, misfortune; others dOze and dawdle it away; others grind i1 out in slavery to lust, as Samson gro md in ths mills of the Philistines; others still spend 1t in sowing the good seed of the king dom, sure of the promised wages and the heavenly harvest.
 Death is a terrible thing. Life is more terrible-for life determines mans eternal destiny. As a man lives, so he dies, and so he enters eternity. It matters little when or where 9 man lives, but how What is your life?

church that we stand for the salvation Of all infants be they in Christian or heathen lands, in Christian families or in the homes of ungodly parents. It is our further glory tkat we stand for q God who keeps covenant with those who agree with him for the salvation of others. Parents may covenant for children, teachers for pupils, any one who has a right i'll any other can make covenant with God in his behalf. If tho children of tie g0dly die with
 out God thlre is proof that either no covenant was ever made by the par ents or that, being made, was not kept. Attention was called to the infant baptism which occurred in the opening service. The three VOWS were spoken of as mans part: To live Christ be- fore the child; to pray with and for the child, and so train hiIn for Christ Then Gods part is to keep the little one in childhood and in after life.
 MT McAfee dwelt e1oquently on the obligations that rest upon Christians now, the work that God expected them to do. To show their Christianity by their works, by the way they conduct ed their business, the men they elected to office and by the laws they passed. That David who had conquered and then rebuilt the city gave it away to God He and the officials, civil and religious, pledged themselves to hold the city for it's divine Master, and God accepting the offered gift, claimed the old city as His cfHn. The city of Phoenix is dear to the heart of Us, her citizens. The Christians of this city today hold the balance of power. II is our privilege to present this city to God, as truly as David had right to give old Jerusalem to Jehovah.
 A special feature of the evening ser vice was the male chorus of eighteen voices. Their singing was inspiring A male quartette sang two choice se- lections Mir. Andrews sang the Of- fertory solo, which was enjoyed. The subject Of the sermon was "A Trying Quarantine. MT. McAfee spoke of personal experience of himself and family in this city few weeks ago. He drew a graphic parallel between the sickness of body and 5ickness Of soul In either case the laws Of quar- antine have no power to cure the dis ease, though they may prevent it's spread And as the physician is need ed in the one so the Great Physician can alone be relicd upon for soul cure.

AS TO IRRIGATION
Fir. A. p. Davis of inc Photographic Survey in Town.

A. P. Davis, the United States hydro
 grapher, and T. J. H. Archambault, also of the geological survey, which is
 conducting boring explorations at the
 Buttes near Florence, arrived at the Commercial yesterday. MT. Davis
 was delegated three years ago to make a report of the buttes as to the feasi- bility of constructing a dam. The preliminary report was made, but at that time the government could not spare money to continue the explora- tion. By a special appropriation the
 work has been going on since last fall, and the second report will be made the latter part of the summer. The result is of importance to Flor ence and vicinity. If the water of the GiIa is conserved there will be as much land under irrigation as is now watered in this valley; and in a short time Florence will be one of the thrifty and populous cities Of the territory.
 The investigations at the Buttes have bsen in a slight degree discouraging. It was at first thought that a masonry dam could be constructed, but that theory has been exploded. Twenty six holes have been bored and the deepest, to bedrock, is 123 fect. A diamond drill was employed to sink q short distance farther and it was as certained that the rocF. is soft and porous. For this reason the only practical dam would be a rock-illed one To attempt to construct a masonry dam to an adeq1ats height on that location would be an innova- ton in engineering and it is preferred to be conservative.
 The engineering party has also been experimenting on Queen creek and at Riverside, one-half mile below the mouth of Mineral creek. Bedrock was struck at seventy-five feet at River side. The rock is well adapted for building a dam, but at that place the canyon is about twice as wide as at the Buttes. There is one favorable condition. The canyon is shaped so there would be a natural spilIway or outlet for surplus water

RELIGION or THE EROQUOIS

To the Editor of the Republican, Sir:
 The following is quotation from the testimony of Andrew John, chief of the. Seneca tribe of Indians. given before the New York state legislative committee cn the Indian problem in 1889. He was asked why the members of the party to which he belonged should not be called pagans. His an swer was: They don't worship idols
 He was then asked: Would you tell us what the general belief of the pagan is?"
 His answer was as fellows: "The general belief<is one great spirit con

DISPUTE OVER DRUNKEN MAN
Led to The Shooting, Although Bad Blood
Existed
BETWEEN THEM FOR SOME TIME
Burgess Former United States Marshall
and Sorrels Was Town Marshall
fEdwardsville-T Muir
derer Still at Large,

D. r. Burgess, former United States
deputy marshal, was shot and instantly
killed by G. A. Sorrels, the town marshal
of Edwardsville, about $50 o'clock yester-
day afternoon.
Meager details of the homicide reached
Birmingham late last night There is said
to have been bad feeling between the two
men for some time past. When Burgess
was deputy marshal, Sorrels was in his
employ, and a serious misunderstanding
between the two men arose on account OF
pay. Sorres left Burgess employ and was
afterwards elected marshal of Edwards
vile. Later on Burgess lost his place as
deputy marshal, and he always claimed
that Sorrels was the cause of 1t.
Dispute Over a Drunken Man
The immediate trouble last night, it Is
said, was caused over dispute which
arose between the men, when Sorrels
tried to arrest drunken man. Burgess
turned and went into a saloon and Sor-
rels' friends claim that he thought Burgess
was going after a pistol. Sorres shot at
Burgess just as he was going in the door
way, killing him almost instantly. sor-
rels fired five shots in all. walking as he
did so toward the court house.
AT last reports from Edwardsville 1t
could not be learned whether Sorrols had
been arrested or not, but one report had 1t
that he had barricaded himself in the
court house, the outside of which was
surrounded by relatives and friends of the
murdered man. Burgess was very popular.
and from what could be learned more
trouble was feared last night.
Two travelling men from Atlanta, one
named Will White and the other Parkes,
boarded the westbound train soon after
the shooting told some of the passengers
that Burgess had been with them only a
few minutes before he was shot

FEAST OF THE ASCENSION
Duly Solemnized at the Catholic Church
es in This City.

The Feast of the Ascension-forty days
after Easter--was duly observed in the
Catholic and Episcopal churches yesterday.
Christ blessed his disciples and departed
from them on Mount Olive, ascending by
his own power to heaven.
At st. Pauls Catholic church, the Rev.
Father Kennedy was celebrant at low mass
CT G3O a IN, and the Rev. Father o'Reilly
was celebrant at high mass at 9 o'clock.
A large number of the faithful received
the holy communion at the first service and
few at the second service. After the
gospel lesson at high mass an acolyte ex-
tingushed the paschal candle, which was
blessed and lighted on Holy Saturday, and
which stood near the gospel side of the
altar, and after distinguishing it, bore it
from the sanctuary, to symbolic the de-
parture of Christ from the presence of his
disciples.
Bishop Allen will administer the sacra-
ment of confirmation to a good class at
Blocton next Sunday, and on Monday he
will consecrate the new church at Brook
side, which was built principally by Slavs,
and which is served by priests from Gull
man. A society of Slavs will parade on
Monday in honor of the occasion.
