Lieutenant Carter stated last night
to q Tribune man that he considers
his team splendid one, and expects
that it will finish well up among the
regiments of the state. Throughout
the practice shooting, the five men
composing the team have maintained
an average of almost ninety, which is
exceptionally good shooting.
Major Frank Robling, Private John
Burns, of Company A, and Musician
Charles Moore have been pretty we'll
tied for prowess with the Krag-Jorgen-
son, and Sergeant Peter Roblng and
Private Lawrence Brink, the remaining
two men of the squad, are shooting
about even. Major Robling will shoot
as last man and Private Burns will
head the list.
Major Robling will also represent the
regiment in the revolver matches. Last
year Lieutenant Franklin Henshaw, of
Company +, won the pistol trophy,
and as Major Robling is considered his
equal with the revolver, the Thirteenth

Rev. T.. 3. Singer, the assistant pas
tor of the Elm Park Methodist Episco-
pal church, preached forceful sermon
in that church last night basing his
remarks on Hebrews 1888: Now the
Just Shall Live by Faith" He spoke
in part as follows:
Let us first look at this text by
considering who are the just. The
line which marks the separation be-
tween the just and the unjust runs not
parallel with the lines which divide
society into classes In society we have
the upper classes and lower classes but
the just may be found among the rich
or the poor. No one knows where the
line should be drawn except God be-
cause being just means being right with
God. Those who are just are
those who have proven their worth,
who have earned their spurs.
THE just shall live The life that
is referred to here is the spiritual life,
the life which those who have come in
touch with God experience. 1t Is mis-
take to assume that those who once
come in touch with God are always in
grace.
DEPENDENT UPON GOD.
This is not true. They are at all
times dependent upon God and unless
they pay constant attention they may
lose this grace before they know it.
God is the source of all grace and we
must at all times keep close in touch
with Him if we would keep it.
1--WE must constantly resist evil if
we would preserve ourselves. This
spiritual life must be used If we would
develop it just as our muscles must
be exercised. We must do our duty as
we see it though it mean ostracism.
suffering or loss.
Faith, we are told, is the substance
of things hoped for. 1t is nothing that
we can grasp or feel or see and yet
how many of us are living by it just
as Paul says. The atheist and the in
fidel scott at the man of God who sets
out toward an unseen goal with the
compass Of faith to direct his course
across the sea of life.
AS we look about us we wonder if
there is aught that endures, if there is
that is staple. Generations
come and go and nations hold sway for
a time and then sink and decay Amid
all the debris and wreckage of life only
faith endures.
LIVE BY FAITH.
'The just shall live by faith. We
shall live by faith. We shall walk by
faith and materialistic changes shall
not destroy our hope as we go on. AS
we grow Older If we are with the Just,
we shall find the world with it's allure
ments and temptations going farther
from us until at last the body returns
to the dust from whence it came. The
real God who rules the world and who
will never leave us. The ocean may
seem trackless and there may be no
lighthouses to guide us on our way
but we will know that we are bound
for goal and we will understand that
our destiny is as truly fixed as God is
God.'

A hospital for the treatment of emer-

grounds of each of the twenty-five
plants of the American Steel and Wire
company. The plans for the buildings,
which will be as nearly uniform as
conditions will permit, are being pre-
pared by Philadelphia architect. and
the total cost to the company OF build
ings and equipment will not fall short
of 100000.
The determination Of the company to
establish a hospital at each one of its
plants was arrived at after year
experiment with temporary emer-
gency hospital, erected for the COM
pany in Allentown. Little was said of
the new movement at the time the
Allentown hospital was put into service

within the next six months all will
be ready to receive patients.
Each hospital will be Of plain brick
construction, two stories in height, and

STOLE MACHINE At HIS LEISURE

A tennessee BIacksmith's Gr.dual Ac-
quirement of = Traction Engine
Ours is peaceful SECTION" said
Col. Dan Turner Of Memphis, Tenn, to
a group Of western men who had been
discussing, robberies, hold-ups and
crime in general. But when we do
thing down in Tennessee. we do 1t
right, and robbing people or corpora
lions is done to the queens taste when
one of our citizens sets out to do 1t.
mot long ago it became necessary
for one OF the railroads to build
small branch line, and traction en-
CINE was sent down there with the
first load of bodybuilding material tc
haul ties on heavy trucks from little
mountain hamlet near where the road
was being built. When the workmen
had finished hauling the ties the en-
CINE was placed alongside the road I'M
til it should be convenient to haul 1t
away. 1t remained beside the road
about six months, and when the con-
tractor came along to clear up, he was
rather amazed to find that nothing but
the boiler of the traction engine re-
NAMED where he had placed it. TIC
make matters worse, every bolt am
rivet that could be removed from the
boiler was missing, TOO. "A search "as
instituted, but the missing parts OF the
machine could not be found.
Some time after the theft OF his en-
CINE the contractor had occasion tc
drive through the country again, and
stopped at a negro's blacksmith shop
to have a shoe fastened on his horse.
While the smithy was at work the Coz
tractor walked around the shop, and to
his amazement, found in one corner ct
the place the missing parts of his en-
CINE. He Immediately charged the ne
gro with stealing it. and the man ad-
mitted his guilt. When the contractor
had recovered from his surprise at the
find, he asked the smithy why he had
not taken the boiler. too. and the latter
replied that he was making tackle to
take to the roadside and lift the boiler
into his wagon when the contractor
took the thing away"

Sign That Failed.

Up on Lexington avenue an enter
prising music dealer who desired TO
call attention to his wares had sign
painted in artistic white letters on a
black ground and hung it on his outer
wall. It read, What is home without
a piano."
One dark night along came painter,
with material of his trade in hand, who
either had no music in his soul or had
a cultivated taste beyond ragtime and
the ordinary performer, and added
word to the sign.
When the music dealer arose In the
morning he was surprised at the ap-
pearance of his sign. 1t read: What
is home without piano? Peace"
The final word was ruthlessly obllt-
Grated and the sign taken from the out
er wall and hung behind the protec-
ton of plate glass.-Boston Globe.
