Der l9-sitxeen days after the election
of a new ard-Commissioner Bre-

fecting Anne Arundel county during
the coming session of the Legislature;
the compensation to be $500 each.

INTERNATIONAL ARBITRATION
Is Discussed at Conference Held
ut Lake MOhOnk.

Mt Lake MOhOnk.
Lake Mohonk. N. Y, May 27.-The
Lake Mohonk conference on interna-
tional arbitration was begun here to-
day. The general topic of the first ses-
sion was 1.-The Present Outlook of Ar
bitration." The opening address was
made by John w. Foster, former Sec
rotary of State, who spoke. in part, as
follows:
The Venezuela embroglio has serv-
ed to bring into prominence the value
of arbitration and the utility of The
Hague Tribunal. 1t was high compli-
ment TO President Roosevelt to be So
licited to act as arbitrator of that dis
pute. But 1t enhanced his reputation
still more to decline the offer, and to
refer the contending parties to the
tribunal which his own government
has done so much to create.
I'm no country did this act of Pres
ident Roosevelt receive greater COM
mendation than in France. some of
whose representatives at The Hague
conference being the most ardent sup
porters of the scheme adopted by that
body. Only few days ago the press
announced that the parliamentary ar
bitration organization of senators had
received some notable accessions from
the ranks of its public men, and that
the cause of international arbitration
had been given a new impetus in that
enlightened country.
Not the least of the events of the
past year tending to peace is the
treaty between the governments of the
United States and Great Britain to re-
fer the controverted question of the
Alaskan boundary to a mixed tribunaI
of American and British jurists It is
not an arbitration, and, from the state
of the question and of public senti-
ment in the United States, it could
not well be such. 1t is an illustration
of the fact that even so excellent a
principle as arbitration has it's limita
lions in practice. 1t was not
possible to have secured a treaty to
entrust the settlement of the Alaska n
boundary to the award of a neutral
foreign arbitrator 1t may sound
strange to be told that some of the
most earnest advocates of The Hague
tribunal. were strongly opposed to the
Alaskan boundary treaty. But 1 re-
gard it as wise measure and one
which rebounds to the credit of Pres
ident Roosevelt and Secretary Hay. II
provides safe method of adjusting
long pending and vexed questions,
which threatened to disturb the rela
tons of neighbors who ought to he
! the closest friends-and l entertain the
! confident expectation that the six dis
| tinguished jurists TO whom the matter
| is referred will ind a solution honora
| BILE to both parties"
Or. Benjamin F. Trueblood gave a
review of the years progress in arbt-
| tration.

"WHHT SHALL DO THEN WITH
JESUS THAT is CALLED CHRISTI"
Second Of the Series Of Sermons on the Two
Business Men by Evangelist Martin.

The sermon at the Tabernacle last
night was the second on the topic of
the business men who met destiny and
had to decide. The first was named
as Moses, and his decision for God and
right, was shown. Last night the sub
iect was PLATE, and it was shown that
he decided in the wrong, against Jesus
not that he wanted to, but on ac-
count of his past record.
Evangelist Martin announced that in
answer to many requests he will hold
another mass meeting for children and
young people Saturday afternoon. All
the young people in Savannah are in
vited. He also announced that the
Tabernacle meetings will close next
Wednesday night,
The evangelist preached from the
text Matthew 27:22: what shall 1
do then with Jesus that is called
Christ?"
"Pilate, the Gentle business man,
| forced destiny" said Mr.. Martin, Gin
the question, What shall 1 do then
with. Jesus, and decided in the oppo-
site way to the Jew Moses. Let's con-
slider what led to his doom. No one
who ever read the record doubtless
ever failed to see, that PLATE honestly
yearned to decide the question Alright.
So doubtless there. is no one in this
| tabernacle who does not yearn to go
to Heaven. But Pilates past course
l
of wrong-doing now blockades his
way Before this he had mingled the
blood of some Galhleans with the
blood of their sacrifices and had thus
| alenated and aroused the bitter enmi-
| ty of the Jews, and they were ready
| to rise in rebellion.
Friend do you see the parallel?
Many there are in your city who yearn
to be saved, but their past course is
now blockading their way.
Business men yearning to make
sure of Heaven but their past course
is now in their way; working men
yearning to be saved, but their past
course of conduct is in their way; poor
fallen women yearning for a home in
Heaven, but their sinful past is now
milestone about their necks dragging
them down to hell; young men yearn-
| ing to be saved, but their past course
of sin is known by some and it is now
mountain between them and
| Heaven.
why. do all these hesitate? Fearing

what those who know their past
course will say. But Pilate hears that
Herod is in the city, and he sends
Jesus to Herod, hoping thereby to put
the blame on Herods shoulders. Do
you get the lesson?
Trying to put the blame on some
one else for not deciding tonight the
question. What shall do with Jesus?'
Are you guilty of this? Do you say
there are too many hyprocrits in the
churches for you to become a Chris
tan? What is that but trying to put
the blame on Herod?
"If every protesting Christian in Sa-
Vannah is a hypocrite, you have no
right before God to turn from this
question and fail to decide Alright this
great question. To say that there are
too many hypOcrites in the churches,
for you to become a Christian is vir-
tually to say, because there are so
many hypocrites going to hell, there
fore l shall go there too.
Friend, if everybody in Savannah
except you, goes to hell, you can't af-
ford to go there.
But again, the crowd, the mob,
says cruelty Him; PLATE says, L find
no fault in Him, but I'll compromise;
I'll meet you half way; I'll scourge
Him. beat the blood out of his innocent
so with some of you; you will not
take a stand against Christ, but you
will not accept Him as your Savior;
you compromise by giving of your
money to Gods cause; or God says
now and the devil says never but
you compromise and say tomorrow :
1t was the decision to compromise that
was the turning point in Pilates dam
nation; it will be the turning point
with some of you.
But included in the question that
PLATE faced and that you face now, is
another question. What will Jesus
do with me?'
He will answer for all your sins; He
will give you home in Heaven now
and He win take away the motive OF
fear of hell, and in it's place, give the
motive of love. But there is included
in Pilates question still another ques-
ton, What shall 1 do without Jesus =?
| All you say, I am getting along very
| we'll without Him.. That is true, friend
| but 1 still press my question, for youl
life is not at its close yet. 'What
| shall [ do without Jesus?' What will
you do without Jesus when trouble
| comes?
Troubles are some time hard enough
| to bear when you have a Savior, but
it is terrible when the life, is all darl
and you have no hope in Jesus. Oh
| what will you do without Jesus in {
l dying hour, and at the judgment bal
of God?"

the bill and instructed that the amount
be deducted from the appropriation of
the Park and Tree Commission.
when this matter came UP Mayor
Myers called attention to the fact that
last month he wrote Chairman Damn
two letters on this subject, but that
ne mad not been shown the courtesy
of even a reply in either case. Copies
of the letters were read to Council and
are as follows:

ton of the house occupied by the
keeper of Laurel Grove Cemetery. I
have received no reply to this COM
munlcation and, as far as l can as
certain, nothing has been done toward
putting the property in good condi
ton. ! learn that the building leaks
and otherwise needs immediate at
tention. If the funds of your commits
sion are not adequate for the repair
work the matter should be brought to
the attention of Council In any event.
some steps should certainly be taken
by you as custodian of the property.
