A FAREWELL SERMON
Rev. Dr. Halsey Closes His Pa storate
 of Nine Years in Phoenix.

At the Baptist church yesterday morning Rev. pr. Lewis Halsey preach ed his last sermon as pastor from the text found in Acts 20:32. And now, brethren, I commend you to God and to the word of His grace. which is able to build you up and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctifed." After a brief expos itory discourse he gave a postlude as follows:
 II have endeavOred to bring to you a gospel of loving service, of affection ate forbearance, of generous cooper ation, a gospel to draw men together rather than to drive them apart. have preached a gospel of works rath- CT than of words. of action rather than of profession, of doing rather than of dreaming. Some mems relig- ion may be compared to a lead pen cil in the lining of your vest. You know it is there, but it is hard to get at. There is need in every church of personal work and of individual con- secration. Many church members are wiling to let the pastor do the preach ing, the deacons the praying. the few faithful ones the giving. If each would bear his burden the load would be light for all-often it is almost crush ing for the few. There is need of courtesy. With all our carelessness in this respect this church has established d a blessed reputation for welcoming strangers. There is need of charity. One unsympathetic, self-centered man with hypocritic heart and malevolent life, can do more to undermine mems confidence in Christianity than can be undone by half a score of faithful, low ing lives. Be helpers rather than hin derers. hopers rather than murmurers. comforters rather than critics. If you are looking for it yOu-can always find something to criticise in your pastor, your brethren, in everything and in everybody, but the cultivation of this habit of criticism makes a man a curse to his fellow men and a greater curse to himself. Sometimes when looking at a group of little children with their uniformed features and tiny. tender feet We sigh as we think of the long and toilsome pathway before them But at the end of the journey wher we look upon the white, drawn face of the dead in the casket, then we think with compassion, but too late of the one whose struggle is past. We know then-too late-that he was wor- thy of more compassion and less con- demnation than we gave him. We think of ancestral burdens placed upoT the already heavy-laden. We think O human weakness and struggle-of the compassion of Christ, and a wave O the divine pity rushes over our souls Too often in this world the harsh wor( of chiding confuses and perhaps kill the wandering one, whom the tone: of love might recall and save. A Ger. man mother saw her child on th' brink of a precipice. To shout to hin might so startIe him as to cause hin to toppIe over. She lifted her voic in a familiar hymn and lured the littl one back to her side. So many wan derer has been won for Christ, drawl to Him by some sweet song.

pastor. He said that some church members were as willing to be led as was an untamed broncho just from the stock yards. I was reminded of a say Ing of the celebrated Baptist pioneer preacher, Elder Hiram Stinson. After a few weeks experience with a church which had called him as a pastor, he said one Sunday: Brethren I thought that 1 was coming to take charge of a flock of sheep, but you are all bucks 'I love this church and this com munity. The friends here will never be forgotten. Bless them, Heavenly Father! Bless them, and keep them, and send them an under shepherd af- ter thine own heart. But a minister has no home, no place on earth to lay his weary head. When I was secre- tary of the New York State Pastors

 "The pastor is indebted to all the
 officers and organizations of the church
 and to members of the congregation
 for kind consideration and for distin-

 noble band of church officers. to the

THE CUNNINGHAM CUTTING
An improvement of the Deputy
 Sheriff's Condition Yesterday.

It was reported at the office of the sheriff yesterday that the condition of Deputy Sheriff Cunningham whose throat was cut by the insane man Clarence Palmer. on Saturday morn ing, was somewhat improved. few friends were allowed to see him yes terday, but he is not permitted to talk Unless complications set in the doe tors believe that he can be about again in a week or ten days.
 It has been ascertained that the edge of the razor was pressing against the jugular vein and was prevented from severing 1t only by the bCne Of the jaw and the base of the skull. If the blow had been delivered the fraction of an inch lower down the officer would now be a dead man.
 It will be remembered that in the story yesterday of the cutting, 1t was stated that Palmer had been working for Price Brown who lives southeast of Tempe and that he had probably gone crazy because a young woman who was employed there declined to return his affections. This was among the statements made by Palmer at his trial for insanity.
 
 affair until he read of it in the Re publican yesterday morning He tele- phoned to the sheriff's office at once some information that he thought might be of advantage in the treat ment of Palmer. He said that Palmer had been employed by him for the last three or four years. He was a good and level headed man. He said that there was a young woman at the rancf ! but that Palmer was rot in love witt | her.
 A week ago yesterday while Palmer was working about hay stack he wa. struck on the head by a part of the the l fork and knocked senseless. When Inc l recovered consciousness he was a diff. 1 ferent man. That blow probably in. vested him with the love affair haIuci nation. He stayed about the ranch fol a couple of days but would not spcal to any one. At length he disappeared and MT. Brown heard no more of hin until he read about the affair a Weeks Station.
 Mir. BrizZee, who was at the station and who helped disarm the madman was in town yesterday He said tha he was carrying a lantern and follow, ed the officer into the tent Palmer was concealed behind the door. A. soon as the deputy sheriff was fairl, within, the maniac rushed at him anC there was just a momentary view O the knife in his hand
 In the melee the lantern was extin. l tinguished and the struggle in tn, dark took place. The officer had grab 1 bed the knife hand of Palmer but h, had not seen the razor in the othe hand. When Palmer had been throwl down and disarmed after cutting : gash in his own throat the lanterI was relighted and then MT Brizze said that he witnessed the bloodies sight he ever saw. A spray of bloc, from the deputy sheriff's wound wa falling against all sides of the ten while blood from Palmers throat wa squirting up into the officers face.
 Mir. BrizZee received a slight cut oI the side of the face and one of hi thumbs was badly lacerated.

The Skinner family re sides near the asylum and last even ing Deputy Sheriff Wayne Davis drove out to the Skinner home, arrested the little girl and brought her to town.

She told her mother that she had better put the purse back but her mother said for her to keep still and nobody would ever know who got it or what became

OF INFANTS FOR MONTH OF
JUNE IN PINE BLUFF, AS CON-
PARED WITH ADULTS.
Fourteen Interments of White People,
and of This Number Twelve
Of Them Were Infants.

The interments in Bellwood ceme-
terry for the month cf June show a
frightful mortality among the infant
population of the city as compared
with the adult population.
Fer the month of June there were
fourteen interments of white people
at Bellwood, and of this number
twelve were infants. This death rate
among the babies has caused consid-
cradle alarm among the parents CT
infant children. The ratio of inter
ments of infants to adults is greater
than ever before in any month in the
history of the city. There is consid-
cradle sickness among the infantile
population cf the city, and with the
burial figures of the past month, it
but naturally alarms the parents Of
the infant that is sick.
There were seven burials in the ne
gro cemetery in June, and one in Bell
wood, making tctal of eight and
showing that there were four more in
terments white people in June than of
negroes.

NEWSPAPERS AND STYLE.

DR.. Woodrow Wilson, CT Princeton
University, seems not to feel quite
as Mr.. James does about our news
papers. Talking lately to repre-
sentative CT the New York Herald
about the deficiencies of college un-
dergraduates in writing English, he
praised the English of the newspa-
pers was remarkably good. He found
it generally terse and clear to the
point, and was surprised that so many
reporters, writing so hurriedly, wrote
SO we'll. It is odd that there should
be this disparity of impression be-
ween DR.. Wilson and Mr.. James 1t
must be that they have not read the
same papers, or that DR.. Wilson has
been reading the editorials and STOCK
market pieces, and Mr.. James the
baseball news and race track items.
Or perhaps they have different no.
tions about what writing should be-
DR.. Wilson says: "Style in Wrltlns
Is something I do not believe ln 1t
sets a limit to expression and sets
wet blanket on thought Mr.. James
has style, but his power of expression
is limitless. Peter Dooley Dunne
has style: so has George Ade. SC mad
the iudicious Hooker, so had Newman
So had Izaak Walton, and Lamp, ana
others. But they expressed them
selves and unblanketed plenty OF
thought. When any competent hand
like DR.. Wilson says he doesn't De-
lieye in style in writing it means
that he doesn't believe in bad style
"style" conveys to some minds only
The impression Of stilts artificlailty'

writer writes is his style. If he writes
much he is as sure to have style
