Retreat of a Lion.

An Englishman who passed five
years hunting In Africa gives a graphic
account of a scene that he once wit
messed there. He was out elephant
hunting. and his party consisted of $50
natives. This was a large and impos-
ing force, and one would think that so
great an array would terrify even the
widest and most ferocious beast.
Suddenly the hunter saw big lion
coming slowly but deiantly out of the
brush, Its eyes blazing with fury, and

The REM source of unhnnnInes


Self-centered life Is everywhere the
greatest dlsturber of human happiness.
1t defeats itself and keeps Its victims
forever upon the rack.
1t collldes with others interests, and
God is In Its way. 1t destroys the peace
of the home.
1t leads husbands to be Indifferent or
unklnd to their wives, and wives to re-
gard their husbands only as the chief of
their own conveniences.
1t leads children to demand that the
whole of the family arrangements shall
be managed with reference to their per-
sonal pleasure.
1t breeds social jealousies and neigh
borhood Quarrels 1t breaks up the
church choirs; scrambles for the chief
seats In the synagogues, and sets church
members to praying. Lord, grant that
we may sit on Thy right hand and on
Thy left In Thy Kingdom" 1t leads
Dlotrephes to love the pre-eminence.
1t is to the credit of the religion of
Christ that selfshness cannot live in
peace with IT'D. II. G. Huntington.

Peace OF heart lies In perfect resig-
Iation to the will of God. What we
need Is true simplicity, certain calm
ness of spirit which comes from entire
surrender to all that God wills, patience
and liberation for our neighbours faults,
and certain candor and child-llke do
cility In acknowledging our own faults.
The trouble we feel about so many
things comes from not accepting every
thing which may come to us with suffi-
Client resignation to God Let us put all
things into His hand and offer them
beforehand to Him In our heart as a
sacrifice. From the moment when we
cease to want things to be according to
our own judgment and accept uncondI-
tionally whatever He sends, we shall
be free from all uneasy retrospects and
inxieties about our own concern

Baseball Park

The arrival of Chairman Dillingham;
at the baseball grounds a few min
utes after eleven o'clock was the sig
nal to the few persons who had reach
ed there that the procession was APP
preaching. A short time afterward the
shrill notes Of a cornet was heard in
the distance. The grand stand then
began to fill with handsomely dressed
ladies' and gentlemen.
The first of the arrivals having
place In the procession was the Nc
Candless auto, that vision In yellow
with the occupants costumed in har-
monizing shades. Next came the auto
mobile of the Governor, with the occu-
pants dressed in the rich kimonos and
headwear of their native land. This
machine and the occupants attracted
more attention than any In the line of
the procession. And the reason was
obvious. A Chinese tea house followed
and the rest came In their regular or
der and drew up In semicircle facing
the stand about two hundred yards
across the diamond.
The bike boys were pictures In them
selves as they rode with a rush
through the gate and around the space
In front OF the assemblage, locating
finally In O. gore near the judges stand.
They were led by Gilliland and Rod
rigues on n tandem decorated with the
national colors. Kin Ho rode laven-

and Arthur Hough and his brother

the Myrtles that there was almost
race between him and Percy Foss who
sported the Healani shade Charlie
Herrick looked will with Male colors.
The entrance of the princesses was
the signal for shouts from the crowds
in the stand. Miss Kate Cornwell. on
a handsome charger and accompanied
by Master Thurston Taylor as herald,
was the first to face the crowd. Her
riding called forth greatest admiration.
She was dressed plainly In red waist
with short riding dress OF black ma

tiny toy machine, decorated very
skillfully with sisal. In this rode
proudly the two Masters Waite and
their little sister May.
Bringing up the rear of the automo-
bile line came the Red Cross car, from
the Young garage. To show that this
entry was made for the purpose of
rendering first aid to the injured, be
the injury a kinked gearing, split
whiffe-tree or carbureter with the
jumps, the Red Cross flag was promin

machine. As it proved, the presence
of the auto ambulance and it's corps
of trained operators was most FORUM

ALONG THE ROUTE.
The plans of the committee having
the parade in hand had been well.ad-
vertised and people had been ut no
loss to know the exact route the pro-
cession would take and were able to
pick out the various points of vantage
from which to survey the pageant, while
hundreds followed along the route in
vehicles, on bicycles and on horseback.
At Thomas square, where the autos re-
Joined the other sections of the parade,
hundreds had gathered, being on tiptoe
for half an hour before Marshal of
the Day Chillingworth, handsomely
mounted, appeared in sight along King
street. The appearance of his white
shirt and red sash raised the shout,
Here they come" and almost be-
fore the first echo had died away
the curb was lined on both sides of
the street by the waiting and watch
ing crowd. At this point the nurse
girls of that section of the town had
brought their little charges to see all
that was to be seen and it was here
perhaps that the occupants of the autos
and vehicles and the horseback riders
received the most adoring and worship
ing attention of any point along their
route.
Meanwhile the crowded rapid transit
cars were carrying hundreds to the
baseball park, all anxious to arrive
there in time to note the triumphal
entry of the paraders.
