The Gordian knot which we are to I'M
tie is the present hell. rather than the
future one. Sin and suffering are al
ready here, and as long as sin re-
mains, suffering must also remain.
DR.. John reasoned that if it can be
clearly shown that Moses made a mis-
take in his brief history of the origin
of the universe, then he was not in
spired by an omniscient God. But if it
shall appear that his account, as far
as understood, agrees with the facts as
far as understood, this alone will be
overwhelming proof that he was SUI
pernaturally inspired. The speaker
treated the latest acquisitions of sci
ence, and drew from the constellation
Orion a story of another world forming,
as the telescope shows, just as the So
lar system was formed. He dealt with
abstruse propositions, which he
clothed in familiar language, but at
considerable length. to give scientific
foundation to his argument. The gen
tleman closed with an eloquent picture
of mans destiny, ending in the grave,
as the agnostic would have it, or end
ing in the bosom of God as the Chris
tian system teaches.

But of the women of the Orient, Mrs.
Wilkinson spoke particularly. depicting
the degradation they suffered in India,
where they We're not thought fit even to

where they We're married at years
of age and often widowed before they
We're 10. She described the life of the
poor creatures in a Mohammedan ha-
rem, telling how it tended only to kill
the real woman in them. She drew a
terrible picture of the lot of the Chi
nese and Buddhist women. ascribing
most of the great evils which exist in
China to the prevalence there of polyg
amy.
In concluding, Mrs. Wilkinson COM
pared the enlightened state of the wo-
men of America to that of their sisters
of the Orient, and said that While it
would be years and decades before re-
forms were accomplished in the east.
the women of the Occident would
eventually succeed in placing women

BASEBALL STOCK COMPANY
PROJECT OF INTEREST TO LOCAL
SPORTS.
Proposition to Lease and Conduct a
Baseball Field Near the City
Games Scheduled.

70 Several prominent baseball enthus-
lasts are arranging plans for the
organization of d stock company to
lease and run a baseball field.
The project as thus far outlined is to
obtain subscriptions for stock from
everyone in the city who takes an in
terest in athletics. TO lease a suitable
plot of ground near the business center
of the city, lay out a good baseball
field and erect a grand stand and
bleachers thereon where a couple of
thousand spectators can be accommo-
dated. The promoters of the enter
prize have in view a tract of ground
on South Main street on which they
are endeavoring to secure an option. Ii
the plan is carried into effect it is be-
lieved by those interested that baseball
can be played upon paying basis, for
that which has initiated against the
popularity of the sport in years past
has been the inaccessibility of the
grounds and the lack of comfortable
seating accommodations at all the fields
in the city.
Those who are working up the mat
ter are Harry Duke, John 7. AxtOn and
W. NJ. Rush. The field Will be used by
all the local teams without discrimina-
ton, it is hoped, and all baseball men
in the city are to be invited to assist in
making the plan successful.

REPLY TO INGERsoLL.
Dr.. John Answers the Arguments of
the Infidel.

The audience at the First NJ. e.
church was again delighted last even
ing in listening to the second lecture
by DR.. John, who, in reply to Ingersoll.
spoke upon the theme, Did Man Make
God" The learned gentleman an
severed the arguments of one of Amer
ica's distinguished orators and held
his audience spelbound with the CO.
gency of his argument and the ferVid-
ness of his oratory.
AT the outset the lecturer explained
that il any had come 10 hear him with
the expectation that he would assail
Ingersoll personally, they would be
disappointed.
Disposing of a few preliminaries, DIR.
John made the admission in advance
that, so far as the Bible is a human
book it is liable to human imperfec-
ton. 1t is printed by uninspired men.
and before the invention of printing it
was transcribed by uninspired men. 1t
may, therefore, contain some human
flaws, and we cannot be sure that it
has reached man precisely as it left
the lips of God. because it must Of
necessity come to the world through
human media. But turn on the light
Of nature, and if science shall discover
anything that is contradicted by ma
ture take it out of the Bible, for God
did not put it there.
DIR. John treated at length Ingersolrs
charge of cruelty against God in per-
hitting wars, peStilence and famine,
and quoted the agnostic as saying:
why did not God, to whom a miracle
is so easy, make the world what he
wanted at once and be done with it?"
Speaking Of the intellectual objec-
tons of Ingersoll against the God of
the Bible and of IngersolPs assertion
that he hates he'll. Dr. John said that
hate of he'll does not close its existence.

Kaysvflle, April 13.-George D. Bennett,

mans hair gray from fright. Along in
the small hours of the morning, when
burglars are wont to ply their nefarious
vocation, Mr.. Bennett was aroused from
his slumbers by d sound that he at once
concluded was the stealthy tread of some
one who had removed his shoes that he
might the more easily steal upon and
overpower the Waterman. The horrible
fate of Sandal. the Farmers Union
Watchman, flashed across Mr.. Bennett s
mental vision but he faltered not in what
he knew to be his duty, and Selling his
revolver he arose and made his way in
the direction whence the sounds proceed
ed, taking the precaution not to make a
light, which would give his antagonist a
good target. AS he proceeded, the sounds
ceased as Mr.. Bennett expected they
would but he went forward. expecting
each moment to be engaged in hand-to-
hand contest. But no antagonist did he

CARBON coUNTY,s SENSATION.
Man In Jail Released By Unusual
Procedure.
Especial Correspondence.


Price, April 13.-Carbon county has a
new sensation. and one that threatens
to create more or less trouble for some
of the officers Of precinct and county
before there is a final settlement. Some
time ago one Arthur Marshall was ar
rested at Castle Gate and brought before
Justice of the Peace Henry Duerdon for
trial.
Marshall was found guilty of stealing
shaving mug from the company store of
the Pleasant Valley Coal company. Ac-
cording to report he had been piHering
from the company for. years, but through
sympathy for his family he had in the
past been allowed to go free. These facts
We're brought to the attention of the JUS
tice. who gave him ninety days in jail,
or its equivalent in coin of the realm.
Being shy on the latter he was sent down
to Price under commitment to serve out
the fine in the county jail. He had been
here only q few days when he enlisted
the services of an attorney who, by some
means or representation, secured the COM
mitment from Sheriff c. w. Alfred.
With this in his possession the lawyer
went before Justice Duerdon at Castle
Gate, and 1t is alleged a new commitment
was made out whereby the penalty was was
fixed at an equivalent of about so This
was put in the hands of the sheriff, and
hardly had he gotten the paper on the
inside of his big pocket, when friends
of Marshall paid him out. The matter
came to the attention of the county com
missioners, the chairman of which is h..
a. Nelson, manager of the company store
at Castle Gate and who was the prose
cutting witness in the original case when
Marshall got ninety days.
When the board met this week an in
vestigation was instituted with the re-
suit that the matter will be brought TO
the attention of Judge Jacob Johnson,
when district court meets again. There
are threats of disbarment of the attorney,
the ousting of the sheriff and justice OF
the peace and all manner and kinds of
things.
The county commissioners are indig--
nant and say if such things are to prevail
in Carbon county they will know the
reason why. and if a man is sentenced
to iail he must stay there, no matter what
the cost that if the county cannot afford
to pay for the feeding of even petty pris-
oners it had best go out of existence and
be tackled onto some other county.
Before the end this case threatens to.
become as famous as some of the dog
and calf litigations back in Missouri.

the Second district court for a decree
disconnecting the territory lying outside
of tract of land one and a half miles
long by one and fourth miles wid4 from

lines. As an incidet to the curtailment of
the city limits. a 6-mill tax will be levied
on the whole municipality by the court,
to be collected by the county treasurer,
and the remaining debts of the city will
be paid by those inside. A petition ask

now being prepared and will soon be cir

curing the signatures.
