Didn't Ball

The Plttsburg foot bali team was to
play 10 chanute. Sunday. The Cha.
mute boys had made all arrangements
and the Pittsburgers came over as
advertised. They. however, refused
to play. They claimed the reason 20
be that no special train was prepared
to take them home and they could not
afford to stay all night.
We believe the trouble was they
discovered that Chanute had FIVE OF
the big Peterson brothers in the line
up and they knew 1t was folly to try
to buck them.

"LET CHRIST IN" SAYS SPEAKER
DR.. Elliott Urges Hearers to Listen
to His Mcssaue

"At the door the Saviour's knocking,
will you rise and let Him in?"
This was the plea made by DR.. John
Elliott last night, when he spoke at
the Astbury Methodist church from the
text, Behold, L stand at the door and
knock"
Let us take a close look at this one
who is knocking" said the speaker.
HE is knocking for admission to his
rightful dwelling place. To the human
heart of the one who has so long shut
him out.
His mission is to cleanse and restore
the property, to remodel and renew it..
Will you let him in?
Possibly it is procrastination that
hinders, bolt almost pushed back but
not quite. Unkindest thing of all, there
stands the guest, but you insult him
by delaying and dallying with the bolt
Beware lest he go away never to re-
turn.
"There is another picture in James.
5:9-behold the judge stands before the
door. Are you ready for the judgment

NEGR0'S WEAPONS ARE
~r TURNED UPON HIS WIFE
Ulysses Grant Lee Lives Up to His
Military Names and Is
Now in Jail

Ulysses Grant Lee. negro with q
military name, three razors, two shot
guns and a cavalry sword, was to all
appearances seeking the life of his
wife, Gussie Lee, living at S14 San
Julian street, last night, but Mrs. Lee
is safe and Ulysses Grant" is in Jail.
A month ago Lee sold property on
Boyle Heights belonging to himself
and wife for net sum of $14OO which
was divided equally between them.
Mrs. Lee placed her money in the
bank, but her husband was not of a
saving mind. Since the property was
sold he has not seen ft to work, but
has been one OF the men of the town.
But yesterday his money gave out
and he decided that it was time for
his wife to share the amount she has
no deposit. Mrs. Lee objected to this
proposal and refused absolutely to
give Ulysses C. Lee cent, Thereupon,
1t is said, ne threatened to kill her
and was attempting to carry his
threats into execution when the police
interfered and bore him off to the city
jail with his small arsenal

not right and who would be glad 20
sacrifice any of the Bible, and those
who ape scholarship; thinking them
selves TO be wise, they have become
fools, and those who honestly want
the best in the word Of God and are
seeking for it with all the power OF
scholarship at their command. We
need not fear for our Bible. The pres
ent battle is a battle of. scholars, and
they that be with us are quite as many
as they who are against us.
"The church is not what she ought
to be in some places. She has lost her
interrogation point, her possessivo
case, her imperative mood, her present
tense She ought to be working so
that the world would ask questions;
she ought to realize that Jesus is her
head; she ought to speak with author
ity against sin. and she ought to know
that now is the day OF salvation"

CHANGE IN PLANS FOR THE DAY
Or. Chapman Deplores Action of the
Merchants Association

DR.. Chapman yesterday announced
plans for the day of prayer as fol-
lows: ..
After conference with the pastors Of
the city at a meeting held in the Ger
man Methodist church Friday after
noon, February 10, 1 was instructed to
give to the newspapers for the public
the following statement:
1--WE are all intensely disappointed
over the fact that the Merchants and
Manufacturers association declined the
request made to them by the pastors
of the city to close their places of busi-
ness on next Tuesday the day of prayer
from 11:30 until o'clock. For fifteen
years 1 have gone up and down this
country, and in almost every city where
I have labored the pastors have made
similar request of the merchants, and
this is the first time have ever known
IL to be refused. In some instances the
stores have been closed for an entire
half day. On account of this action
taken by the above-named association
it would be unfair to the 401 business
and professional men who have agreed
to close their places of business at this
time to ask them to do so. 1 am in
structed therefore to notify them
through the papers that their closing
will not be expected; that if it is done
at all it must be because of their own
desire
His honor, the mayor, and the COM
mon council of the city, are also to be
notified that their gracious act of cour-
tesy, while greatly appreciated, will not
be expected and that the proclamation
need not be sent forth. A new plan is
made for the day and one that will in
every way be helpful to the city we
are sure"

CHRISTIAN WORKERS RALLY
Bible Conference Proves Great Aid to
Campaign


The second day of the Bible confer
ence was filled with the same spirit
which had peryaded the first days
meetings and all through the sessions
yesterday the church was crowded
with ministers and Christian workers.
The prayer service was led by Rev.
Robert Mcintyre and Immediately fol-
lowing there was an address by Dr.
John II. Elliott, in which he touched
upon the things that are necessary in
the life of genuine Christian.
THE Eyangelistic Pastor" was the
subject of an address by DIR. Ostrom
in which he scored the indifference OF
both pulpit and pew and told of the
struggle against sickness and what
others expected would be death in his
own life.
In the afternoon DR.. Chapman spoke
on ''The Lost Vision" and took as his
text, Where there is no vision the
people perish"
DR.. Chapman dwelt upon the differ
ent kinds of criticism Of the word Of
God, saying: M a ... be-.

Valentine socials are now quite the

Members of the city council met this
morning to consider preliminaries i'll
the water question, and incidentally
several other matters came up for con-
sideration. The new milk ordinance

definite outcome. Mr.. Allin, the city
engineer, broached the subject of the
repairs necessary on lower Garfield

the recent rains. Repairs were or
dered made.

dangers that beset your brother men,
Will you not for their sakes register
yourselves against this thing?"
When DR.. Slough finished the lecture
he asked all those who wanted to de-
clare that they were done with the
three forms of amusement which he
had pointed out forever to stand, ana
nine-tenths of the people in the crowded
church arose.

INSPIRED BY SONG SERVICE
Meeting in Central District Results in
MANY Conversions

The meeting of the central district
took place last night in the First
Methodist church and an inspiring song
service was held preceding DIR. Chap
mans sermon.
The members of the chorus sang in
excellent time and the solo work of
Fred Butler thrilled his hearers.
Mr.. Butler was formerly with the
Alice Nelson Opera company, but be-
cause of his conviction that his voice
should be used for the special uplifting
of humanity in such meetings as these.
he gave up operate work, and for the
past year has travelled with DR.. Chap
man. In every city his singing has
aroused the greatest enthusiasm.
The church last night was crowded
as it has been every night since DIR.
Chapman began his work, and there
were many conversions.
The subject of the sermon was
"Agonizing Prayer" The text:
"And being in an agony He prayed
more earnestly; and His sweat was as
it were great drops of blood falling
down to the ground" 22:44.
He said in part
ut is hardly necessary to speak Of
the power of prayer. 1t has been en-
phaszed in history, and realized in our
own experience. 1t was while Luther
was praying that Charles the Fifth
granted religious liberation to the Ger
man people. 1t was when John Knox
was on his knees crying oh, God, give
me Scotland or 1 die that mighty
vistory was wrought. 1t was after
Livingstone had spent a night in
prayer, that 500 people were converted
in day. 1t was following Edwards
prayer and fasting that New England
was shaken by the power of mighty
revival.
Certain it is that God is not un-
moved by such praying. If you ask
me to give you the philosophy for it
all, cannot do it, but that it is fact,
There are certain things clearly re-
vealed to us in this prayer of Jesus in
the Garden.
"First-It shows how God feels con-
cerning the lost, for Jesus said, He
that hath seen Me hath seen My Father
also.'
"Second-Such a spirit as is revealed
in this prayer always moves the un-
converted. 1t is an invariable rule
that unsaved people are never more
concerned for themselves than saved
people are concerned for them.
"Third-Souls thus burdened gener-
ally gain their desire.
"Fourth-The spirit of this text is
the natural result of clear views con-
cerning the last. No man can be in
different when he realizes the teachings
of Gods word concerning the impeni-
tent and the unsaved.'

"HoW LONG is ETERNITY?"
DR.. Walton Asks This Question of His
Congregation

SOHSTCSdtIOlI
"How long is eternity and where will
you spend it,"
DR.. Walton asked this question at
the opening of his address on "Eter-
nifty" delivered last night before a
large congregation at the Advance
Buggy Company building.
He said in part:
God fixes the time and plan of sal
walton. He commands men to comply
with the conditions. Men who are
business when they turn to the ques-
ton of religion seem altogether to lack
balance or reason. In the disposition of
notes, bonds, mortgages, etc, they wish
the exactness with which God does
things, and yet in the question of sal
walton they seem to believe that amy
old time will do.
"All who perish do so with surprise.
Because salvation is conditioned on be-
lief, man argues that it is optional, and
the man who disobeys the gospel eX-
poets some day to get around in some
haphazard fortune in the world of obe-
dience. All disobedienGe comes from
two causes; mans belief in his Master
or law of his ability to evade it. The
sinner is forgetful of the fact that he
can approach God as a private person.
Only the saved man can call God Fa-
ther"
He concluded with eternity is a pang
TO the lost and joy to the saved,
They shall be forever with loved ones
in the presence of the Lord.

DR.. Ostrom Speaks

DR. Ostrom spoke at Emmanuel church
last night from the text, "Ye must be

mysteries of regeneration, comparing
and other things which present them
selves to modern students of science
Following the sermon there was well
attended after meeting.

OXNARD SUGAR FACTORY
EXPECTS HEAVY SEASON
Large Acreage of Beets Contracted
For-City Improve
nents
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
OXNARD, Feb. 1O.-The manage
ment of the beet sugar factory is MAX
ing arrangements for the largest cam
paign the coming season that it
has yet experienced. The abundant
rains have inspired confidence in the
farmers, and, feeling that the coming
season will be a record breaker for
beets, are hurrying to make contracts
with the American Beet Sugar COM
pany, and already over $4,000 acres are
contracted for, while additional con-
tracts are being signed daily. 1t is
now estimated upon the best of au-
thority that fully 10000 acres will be
contracted for and raised this season.
This will be over 1000 acres more than
have ever been raised in the county
in one season, the acreage in 1907,
which was the largest in the history
of the Oxnard factory, being a little
over 1900 acres.
The shipping of lime rock from Ore
Grande has already commenced and
upward of eighty carloads have been
received. This fact is strong evidence
of unusual preparation on the part of
the factory people The work of re-
pair and improvement in and about
the factory is being pushed with all
speed. About 100 high salaried me-
chanics of all kinds are now employed
and will have the entire plant in bet
ter condition for doing rapid and thor
ough work than ever before. Old
ranchers in this valley claim that, TAX
ing everything into consideration, the
prospects for an abundant crop in all
lines are better than they have been
for twelve years,
Lighting and Sewerage
Material is now being placed on the
ground for the new plant of the OK
nard Water and Electric Light COM
pany. The building will be fitted with
all the very latest and most improved
machinery, each part being in dupli-
cate to avoid any delay in case of a
breakdown. Arrangements are being
made for a day and night service Of
electricity. The eplant when COM
pleted. will cost in the neighborhood
of 100000,
The matter of a sewer system is
again being agitated and the prelim-
mary survey for the proposed sewer is
now being made. 1t has been found
that the fall from the city OF OK
nard to the ocean is about forty feet.
and the distance is less than, three
miles The plan is to issue bonds in
the sum of 100000. Action viii prob
ably be taken as soon as the engineer
has completed his work.
