conscience and reason. which place man
infinitely higher than the animals
Therefore, man stands at the summit
of natures beings, but in the Bible we
find another range called angels. How
does man stand with relation to these?
They have bodies, but they are not like
the bodies of men. They are spiritual
body, and derive their life from God
Man derives but half of his life from
God, the other half coming from the
products of nature. When one angel
fell, none of the others fell. but when
one man fell, all men fell. Does this
not show mans position?
When man is full grown in Christ, he
win jump out of specie, and will go
home to join the angels. and praise
God. What is man that thou art mind
full of him."
Mr. Westhafer then took up the ques-
ton Does God visit man." and gave a
number of Biblical illustrations to prove
that He did
There are two works that declare the
greatness of man-his freedom and

STONE RECOVERING,
Map Who Killed May Carstens Hurt
Himself But SlixhtlY.

Himself But Slightly.
William ]. Stone Of Warrenton, Va, who
Is under arrest in Baltimore charged with
the murder of May Carstens of this city, as
published in yesterdays Star has almost
recovered from the effects of the injury he
inflicted upon his throat. 1t is believed he
will be able to appear at the inquest which
will be held tonight at the Eastern police
station. Stone, at the time of his arrest
declared he remembered nothing of what
happened Saturday from the time he left
the suburban resort with his companion
until he reached Johns Hopkins Hospital.
Yesterday, however, he consented to talk
to the policeman who was detailed to pre-
vent his escape from the hospital He
then admitted he had killed Miss Carstens
and had attempted to end his own life.
MISS CarstenS, he declared, wanted to die
and he took the responsibility of ending her
life. That he did not succeed in taking his
own life, he says. is no fault of his, but the
police think his courage failed him as soon
as he felt the knife upon his throat. The
slight wound he made is rapidly healing
Yesterday he was able to eat without diff
Guilty
The police believe the killing was pre-
meditated. Stone mailed to an acquaint-
ance note just before the tragedy, as fol-
lows:
Kind Friend-PIease wire G. B. Stone,
Warrenton, Fauquer county Va, of this
occurrence. 1 would like to be buried at
the place l used to call home. Yours truly,
''W. ]. STONE
The Baltimore authorities are keeping a
close watch on Stone to prevent him from
taking his own life. The body of his VIC
tim VIII probably be brought here tomor-
row.

FREEDMAN HAS HIS WAY.
Umpire Nash Has Been Put on til
Substitute List.

Substitute List.
There will be no further trouble between
Magnate Andrew Freedman and the Ma
tional League over the employment of
Umpire Nash in games where the New
York club is a participant. This decision
was evidently reached result of a con-
ference between President Young who re-
Gently took a western trip, and several
magnates of that section.
Today was the one selected in which the
trouble was to be brought to a head, as
Umpire Nash, according to the schedule,
was to officiate at Chicago in the game be-
tween the club Of that city and the New
Yorks. Uncle Nick was seen at noon to-
day by an Evening Star representative, and
in speaking about the controversy, said:
Mr.. Nash is now in Cincinnati recu-
perating from the injuries received in the
fracas at New York several weeks ago
He is not yet fully recovered and will not
officiate at Chicago today
w hen L learned that Mr.. Nash was
quite seriously hurt and unable to work,
placed him on the substitute list and placed
Elmer Cunningham, the old Louisville
pitcher. in the regular class. The latter
Will continue in the regular class for the
remainder of the season or until he is I'M
able to work for any reason and Mr.. Nash
will remain in the substitute class until
called out for extra work.
1T was small matter at best, but Mr..
Nash's unfortunate injuries have helped
the National League out of a difficulty
and 1 hope all trouble is at an end be-
tween Mr.. Freedman and myself
Mr.. Young has taken Mr. Freedman's
antagonism In good part, has not been
worrying a bit and is in the best of health
Uncle Nick" is elated over the splendid
heves the national sport has regained its
old-time standing

ASK FOR OLD PRIVILEGES.
Farmers Desire to Continue Selling
Products on X Street.

The Commissioners have received a peti-
ton from number of farmers from Mary
land and Virginia requesting a renewal Of
their privilege of selling farm products on
the south side Of K street between Goth
and 21st streets-a privilege which they
say they have enjoyed since the market
was established there, and it Is one of the
oldest in the city.
''It is harsh and unjust" says the petit
ton, ito deprive US of our ancient rights
and privileges when the residents and
property owners are in favor Of our occu-
plying this south side. Last season, in
truck time, we had no room to sell our
stuff, the market space was SO much over
crowded, and many who had long way to
come could get no place to sell their prod
ucts. We earnestly hope that you will be
moved by sense Of justice and grant our
petition"
