 The contents and division of Canaan, and an extremely accurate description Of the land.
 Yet the book is probably not the con ttiluous composition of one writer so much as the collection of historical mo- tices, edited with admirable skill. The framework and interpolations, however, are not completely covered by the editor.
 Moses. the Lords servant, was dead. There was a great gap By whom could vacancy like that be filled? So today. in national and world movements, leaders are falling, If one great personality hap pens not to come to the fore, there must be augmented diligence among the sur- vivors.
 The assurance of the Divine presence was to be no premium on inactivity. The Lords command is "Arise! "Go over Jordan" His people press the soles or their feet upon the soil of the land Of promise before God will give it to them. If we do our part, God is faithful to bring us also to the Heavenly canaan. He will not fail us.
 The enlistment of the two tribes and the half tribe already settled in the ter ritory east of the Jordan in the conquest for the remaining territory on the west is a very suggestive incident. They were fraternally exhorted to aid, and did go | loyalty The spiritual significance Is that | whoever has consciously entered into ga rest' is bound to aid his fellows secure | it.

 The Bible for a long while alone pre- served the record of the Hittites among the nations. and 1t was supposed by hos tile criticism to be in error in exagger- ating the importance of what was judged to be a small tribe. Recent explorations and discoveries confirm the Bible. and show the Hittites to be a powerful na- ton, the dominant one of Syria, exercts ing an influence even upon Egypt and the East.
 To afford rest is a very beautiful and significant phrase It means to cause to rest in secure dwelling place, after the long and restless wandering through the wilderness. The specifications give lively tone to the narrative-this land. this Jordan. this Lebanon.
 In dangerous duties and circumstances there is no better comfort than when one has a regular call to the position, and God for his Patron and Protector. That was Joshua's experience.
 The first revelation of God after the death of Moses installs Joshua formally in his office, gives him a double com mission: to lead the people into the prom ised land. and to distribute this among them, renews the assurance of Divine aid, and admopishes to steadfast fidel- ity toward Gods law and unperturbable confidence in Him. Could anything be more comprehensive or apt?

PROVO IS PARDONED
NEGRO PREACHER WAS ARREST
 ED AFTER 26 YEARS.
Convicted of Larceny in Montgomery County and Escaped to Texas. Returned to Alabama to a
 Church Convention.

Meredith Provo, the aged negro preach CT, who has been in the jail of Mont somery County for the past two weeks for the crime of larceny committed more than duarter of century ago. was yes- terday granted a full pardon by Governor Jelks.
 The Governor directed that Provo be released and allowed to go to his home and there pursue the good work in which he has, according to all accounts, been engaged so many years.'
 The volume of papers which accom- panied Provo's application for pardon reached the Governor yesterday and upon completing his examination of them he directed that the old negro be pardoned.
 Proyo's unusual story is familiar to the reading public of Alabama. Twenty six years ago he was indicted for the stealing of a sheep from a prominent citi- zen of the Banner section of Montgom- cry County. He was convicted and sen- his case to the Supreme Court. By talk ing advantage of his privileges as a "trusty," he escaped when he learned that the higher court had affirmed his sentence and that he would have to serve his time in the penitentiary.
 He went to Texas, became Baptist preacher. and rose to be chairman of the negro Baptist convention of that State. He conducted himself as good and law abiding citizen and stood high In the es- teem of the people of Cameron. Tex, where he lived.
 He was sent to the national convention of the negro Baptists at Birmingham as delegate from Texas. He was in the terrible stampede of the negroes at Shi- loh Baptist Church, where so many were killed and where the breath was tram pied from his body. On recovering. he ceme to Montgomery, his old home, to see the children of his old master. Here he was recognized and arrested for the old crime.
 The application for pardon of Provo had the endorsement of the white and colored people of Cameron. who united in testifying to his good character. Tn granting his pardon. the Governor wrote:
 "The old man, twenty-six years ago. il is alleged, stole a sheep. He was con victed and sentenced to imprisonment Pending the trial of the case in the su- premes Court. he left Alabama for Texas fin which State he has made e reputation for honesty and integrity. It gives ma much pleasure, promptly, as soon as the papers reached me, to restore the old man to freedom Let full pardon issue ano he be allowed to return to his home ano further pursue the good work in wnicn according to all accounts. he has been engaged for so many years.
 The news was carried to Provo Tn the county iaiI and he heard 1t with tears of. gratitude in his eyes. He did not care | to remain in Montgomery after his recent troubles, and he left for his Texas nome l last night

PASSING THRONG.

Hon. A. H. Alston, Supernumerary Judge of Ale bama, was in Montgomery yester- day en route from Selma, where he has been holding court for the past two weeks, to his home In Clayton. During his occupancy of the bench in the Dal- las Circuit Court, Judge Alston tried sev- eral cases which have attracted atten- tion over Alabama.

The jury he said, made an earnest effort to secure evidence fol an indictment, but none was brought be fore it. Judge Alston further said tha' he believed the matter would be taker up by the next grand jury.

Demand for Stock Cars.

Denver, Col. Oct. 3.-The News today says: The tremendous demand for stock cars with which to move live stock from the present scanty ranges of the West to points where food can be had for the win- ter, has created a condition in the live stock markets of the West never before known and one that is causing great loss and inconvenience to stock owners In Denver the market has been almost par aiyzed by the inability of the railroads to supply cars and prices have been steadily declining. principally because of the same reason.

DRAMATIST GILBERT IN ARMS
He Ran Down q Preacher and Now
Condemns the AutomObilist's
Liberties.

LONDON, Oct. 4-william S. Gilbert. the
dramatist. appeared this week in the light
OF a conscience stricken motorist anxious
to reform others. He wrote to the London
Times confessing to having run dow a
clergyman and urging more strict regula-
lions for motors and drivers. Thereupon
came a large number OF letters from prom
inent motorists. including Leopold de Roths-
child and Admiral Sir Richard Hamilton,
declaring that Mr.. Gilbert's experience in
handling a car should not be made a peg
on which to hang further restrictions Of
this already over-persecuted form Of
amusement"
Mr.. Gilbert replied, sticking to his guns,
and e~lecting much sympathy from non
motorists, among whom was Lord Ribbers-
dale.
The general gist OF the controversy indi-
Gates a desire on the part OF the leading
public men, whether motorists or other
wise, to have special legislation dealing
with all phases Of motoring. In this con-
nection it is announced that Rudyard Kip
ling has Joined the volunteer motor corps
gotten up by the War department. The
corps has 100 motors at its command.
