Last Friday afternoon the town
sight commission finished ap-

Just about month ago Messrs.
Hefiey and Burney went ont one
cold morning at 8 O'Clock, the
theI mometer then registering eight
degrees above zero, and com
menced to appraise property at
block /. in the northeast part of
the city.
These gent r5men have worked
diligently ever since, not even
stopping on legal holiday, and
yesterday they finished their
labors.
Mr.. Hehey, chairman of the
commission, was seen yesterday
by an Ardmoreite reporter and
said that they hoped to get every
thing ready to send the appraise-
ment to the secretary of the inter-
ior in couple of weeks. Their
report will pass through the Office
of the Ii dian Inspector, when il
goes on to Washington.
There the work will be gone
over, and with favorable results
will be returned here in two OF
three weeks from the time it leave;
here.
Mr.. Hefiey said he hoped to b'
able to commence notifying thu
property owners here in about si,
weeks from this date.
For the benefit of some WHIT

again that all who have propert,
appraised to them, will be required
to pay one half of the amount o
the appraised value, and one fourtl

perhaps it might be six months
it might be earlier. There
about fifteen percent of the Ian

This property when sold, he sal
the purchaser would be required t

Howard Connors' Marvellous Escape
 from Serious Injuries Saturday
 Howard, the thirteer-year- old son of John Connors, of 7S9 Grand avenue, came dangerously near losing his life on Saturday shortly after F o'clock. He was alone in the house al the time, and, thinking the fire in the kitchen stove was not burning as it should, he endeavored to urge 1t on Procuring the family can of kerosene he poured a generous quantity of the fluid on the coals. This did not seem to have the desired result and the youngster thought to try it again but before do ing so took another look. Just as he did so there was flash and report and the flames shot up and around the boys face. He ran scream ng to the street, and his cries attracted the neiehbors. Some one called in Dr. Klenke, who attended to the injuries. Fortunately the young mans clothes did not take fire and it was fund that the injuries were more painful than se- rious It was feared that the eyesight might be impaired, but beyond the singeing of the eyebrows there was no injury to the optics. The face, how ever, was quite badly blistered, but if is thought there will be no sears. The hair was also badly singed.

Interesting Discourse in West Haver
 M F. Church--Services This Week.
 Rev William McNicholl of the Firs1 Methodist church, West Haven, preach ed an interesting sermon in that church yesterday morning on the subject Songs of Believers His text was taken from Psalms S1, first verse: "Sine a loud song unto God, our strength: make a joyful noise unto the God of Jacob"
 Rev. MT. McNicholl began by saying that David was one of the greatest of Hebrew poets and that he was one of the most gifted singers and skilled mu- sicians of the Jewish church.
 The preacher said that his best com positions were produced when in pris- ons of sorrow and with the glory of God flooding his soul. He said that the best songs in the world were the com positions of the Bible inspired in heav- en- He said: we call them songs of heaven, but none but believers in Jesus Christ can sing them. We cannot sing songs of foreign nations unless we study the original or know the lan- guage, and so we cannot sing the songs oI tne blDle ulltll we lcdlI lle ldll6 uoSc of heaven. The reason why inf1dels and agnostics find SO many contradictions in the Bible is because they have never mastered the language of Canaan.
 When they will learn and know God like first-olass scholar handling the ancient languages they can read cor rectly and rejoice while they read. I will classify the songs of heaven as fol- lows: The first is the song of regener- ation, the second the song of security in temptation, the third the song of Thanksgiving the fourth the song of victory and the last the midnight song, or the song of suffering, This last song is the new song and will be sung in heaven, and we must learn the other songs on earth if we would be able to sing the new songs in heaven
 A large congregation listened to Rev MT. McNicholl and greatly enjoyed hIs words.
 This week will be a lively one in the Methodist church, for on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evangelistic services will be held The Salvation army will conduct the ser- vices Tuesday and Wednesday. the pas- tor will preach Thursday and MT. Sage. of the Y, M. c. A., will conduct the ser vices Friday. All are invited

Irvine is at his best in Character delineation. He has a vivid imagination, and being also of dramatic temperament, is en- abed by these qualities to set his sub feet in clear light
 Job is the greatest epic poem in the world. he said Three problems con- fronted him:
 First-God punishes man for his sins here and now. He said that Job could not accept this, for he had not sinned to deserve this punishment that came up- on him.
 second---God makes men suffer to purify their hearts and purify their minds. While this is partially true, Job could not accept this, because he was pure in heart and mind.
 Third-Some men suffer as the cham pions of God. This, he said, was Jobs solution and quoted in support of his Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him That's the faith that overturns the world" said John Fiske. MT. Irvine appealed to the men in the closing words: "If there is any stuff in you let Him bring 1t out
