This morning man named Sa- banero, an Italian residing in No- gales, Sonora, became entangled with the immigration laws of the United States, was arrested by officials of the bureau of immigra- tion, and lodged in jail. 1t is stated that the man has long been suspected of complicity in smuggl- ing Chinese.
 Mr. " c.

 Monday information came from Phpnix that Mr. Nm. Griffith, superintendent of the territorial penitentiary at Yuma, had ten dered his resignation, which had been accepted, and Mir.

Locsl Politics.

local Politics.
 During several weeks past the local political pot has evinced signs of activity; with the demo- cratic primary today 1t will reach the simmering point, and by the time the republican primary is held next Saturday, the boiling point will have been reached. Considerable speculation as to pro- bable candidates is being indulged particularly so as to the republi- can side of the house. Upon the democratic side it seems a foregone conclusion that the present county officials will be all renominated with, perhaps, two exceptions. Captain c. E. Perkins, county sur yeyor, IS a persona non grotd with the gang, and it is whispered that he is to be dropped in the conven- ton and Jack Straith nominated for surveyor Mir. Marsh having served two terms as county treas urer, is ineligible to serve another term, and it is understood that the nomination will go to Mir. Theo- dore Gebler. For the legislature there has been some talk of noml- mating MT. H. $. Stewart of Duqnesne, but Hon. Bo. J. White sides appears to have the inside track. Considerable pressure was put upon Captain l. W. Mix to accept the nomination, but the gentleman positively declined-on account of his business interests.
 Mir James Kane of Patagonia is talked of as candidate for nom- ination for sheriff, and it is assert ed that two years ago he was pro- missed that if he would he good then he should have the nomina- ton now. He was good. and now he will get what Pete Kitchen got in Sonora 7 Sheriff Turner has a mortgage upon re- nomination.
 William Schuckman of Nogales is slated for nomination as super visor, and the other nomination will % to some democrat residing in an outside precinct.
 Upon the republican side Charles l.. Fowler of Nogales and w. c. Dumont of Patagonia are both out for sheriff. Both ara strong men. It is whispered about that in cer- tain quarters there has been an effort to bring out Frank Cox. of Nogales, the we'll known mining man. The report goes that a gen tleman who was supposed to be pushing Fowler's fortunes ap- preached a certain other gentleman in Cox's interest, and was given the same answer that Dumont was re- ported as having been given when soliciting support in the same quarter, viz: That he had to show that he was stronger man than Fowler if he expected support in that quarter.

 Two prominent speakers consumed the time of the night session. Governor Aycock of North Carolina addressed the convention on the subject The Educa- tion of the Masses" P. w. Meldrim, chairman of the Georgia State Indus trial College spoke on Industrial Edu- cation" Governor Aycock charmed his hearers by the forceful manner of his delivery as well as by what he said.
 Hon, P. w. Meldrim is a man whose advocacy of the education of the negro along certain lines has made him more than an interesting figure in his State and in other States where his influence has been felt. MT. Meldrim spoke to- night for the negro. It was plain and practical appeal for the negro's education along lines which he believed would be of the greatest benefit to him and to the State"

CHICAGO GRAIN AND PROVISIONS.

CHICAGO, Dec. 3o..-Heavy liquidation ny e prominent holder today wiped out the sharp advance in wheat and the market closed weak with May down ls e %c Corn. oats and provisions were practically un- changed
 A stampede of belated longs resulted in an advance of over one cent in May wheat during the first hour of trading. Intlu- enced by the higher cables and exceeding ly small receipts in the Northwest opening prices showed a fair gain. May being up e %c ct 1.1th @1.1t&. On an urgent de. mand from shorts and several prominent made. the price being quickly bid up to 1.15h befofe any considerable supply of offerings were disiodsed. Some small hold secure profits. The result was reaction to 1.14K. An active demnad from North western houses which seemed to indicate Q belief in a further reduction of receipts in 10 local bulls. and the buying became more aggressive. May sold up to 1.15%: For a time the market continued extremely strong with prices near the highest point. Late In the day sentiment suddenly changed and sharp reaction followed. One. con spicuous feature of late trading was heavy selling by the leader of the bulls. The claim was made that 2.000,oOo bushels were sold by this one operator. Pit traders were quick to follow the lead and selling was quite general during the last hour. re- port of a St. Louis trade paper was com strued as bearish, the report stating that the winter wheat crop had been greatly De1oINeu Dy the ttCSuL Euluo 0uu 1uoWs Under this selling pressure May dropped to 1.13%. The market closed weak and prac- ticalIy at the lowest point. final quotations on May being at i 1.1s% @1. .1S%. Ciearances of wheat and flour were equal to ss,s00 bushels. Exports for the week. as shown by Bradstreet were equal to ss1.000 bushels. Primary receipts were 376.S0o bushels. com. pared with a holiday a year ago.
 Early in the day the advance in wheat had a strengthening influence on the corn market Higher cables and light receipts also gave encouragement to bull traders. Liquidation of a large line of December. however, checked the advancing tendency, the market closing about steady. May open ed h@ko to Nc higher at 4bh V45&, sold between 45% and 45% 145E and closed at 45M. Local receipts were i77 cars, none Of contract grade.
 The volume of trading in oats was a slight improvement over that Of recent days. At the outset prices were firm in sympathy with other graiLs. Cash houses were fair buyers Later the market became dull and prices eased off trifie along with the break in wheat May opened h9Ac higher at SIS @31%, sold off to 31h and closed at 3th 4Sl%.

The Teachers Lantern.

Johns method of presenting the life
 of Christ Is most remarkable. It is
 as if, for example, one should take g.
 series of scenes from the career of Sa-
 vonarola like his denial of absolutiop
 to Lorenzo the Magnificent. his burn
 ing the vanities," or his martyrdom. :.
 John attempts no biography, yet inci- dentally he gives us the best chronol- ogy. He does not relate the birth of Christ, yet as has been said, eternal Christmas pervades his soul.
 John lakes great scenic events, six miracles Cor signs, as he significantly
 calls them), and three parables. He gives the setting and background of each, and then interprets, or better.
 makes the Lord his own interpreter by recording His sayings in the con
 nection. Thus by a series of clusters of sayings, deeds and events, he makes l what Origen did not hesitate to call "the main gospel"
 No part of the Bible has been more highly praised. Thus: '"The Gospel of
 the Son of Thunder opens with a peal" l-Cambridge Bible. The hearts of Christ ."-Ernesti. "The diamond among | the Gospels, most fully penetrated by the light of life ."-Lange. The unique, tender. genuine, leading Gospel. i."-
 Leasing. John excels in the depths of Divine mysteries. ."-Jerome. John poured forth the water of life like he himself had drunk in.'--Augustine "Other Gospels describe Christs body,
 this His soul. ."-Calvin.
 | When John talks of light he does not
 go into a cosmogony. He deals with | a self-evident fact. Light is So when he names the moral condition of the ] race under the figure of darkness, he
 does not go into q theological disquisi- 1 tion on sin, its origin, etc. He deals
 with Il self-eviaent fact. Sin Is. There
 are necessary antagonisms between i light and darkness, and so between holiness and sin. Darkness and sin do not comprehend, and are inveterately
 hostile to light and holiness. But light and holiness are to be ultimately tri- | umphant.
 It is the highest compliment to John the Baptist that John the Evangelist
 seems to think 1t necessary to differen-
 tiate him from the Messiah. He was not the Light, but he bore witness to the Light. He was a night-watchman.
 answering to those who asked, What
 of the nightT "The morning cometh."
 He was a friend of the bridegroom, not
 the bridegroom: a star to guide. but not a false light. but as compared with
 Jesus, a small light.
 In the stately and triumphant strains
 of the prologue there Is a minor note
 of deepest sadness. It rises from Johns
 sympathetic appreciation of Jesus and
 the worlds neglect and hostility. The
 darkness did not comprehend the light His own received Him not.
