THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH.

Christ had lived, died. been crucified and risen from the dead.
 There were assembled before Peter devOut and learned men from all the nations of the earth and this audience was one of opposition.
 If Peter proved the eXaltation of Christ then the teachings of both Greek and Roman must give way. The educated Greeks possessed perhaps the most subtle minds in the world.
 Peter used great tact in addressing that multitude that had known Jesus during his life here.
 He said. first, these men are not drunken upon new wine for it is only the third hour but this is the fulfill ment of prophesy-"It shall come to pass in the last days that I shall pour out my spirit on all fiesh''-these were the last days of the old dispensation and in that gathering were all nations represented.
 l Peter appealed to the Jews by quot ing from David, showing that Christ not David was to be raised from the dead and rule at the right hand of God. Though it was difficult for the Jewish mind to realize that a heavenly not an earthly throne was to be His. Peter then reminds that audience facts that Christ lived. was crucified, died. was buried in Joseph's new tomb and that on the third day he arose victor over death and hell.
 That he having ascended to the
 Father the spirit in proof of this had
 come upon them.
 The speaking with pngues and the : fire being but symboli; proof, just as
 the dove decending uIbn the head of Jesus was.
 , If Jesus is to savel the world He must be divine.
 !, Upon that fact rests the church be- [ ing divine and hayine by Gods plan I been made a sacrifice br us. then His 5 is the right to to eomnand. He says,

 At the Presbyterian church the morning service was strictly com munion service, there being no ser mon.
 The members of this church are looking forward to the coming of Rev. J. Earnest McAfee. brother of the for mer pastor, for a brief stay in the near future.
 It is not expected that he will be able to remain over Sabbath, but he will perhaps take part in week eve ming service. Friday the Ladies Aid society of the Presbyterian church will give the opening social of the season at the Indian school. girls home.

] THE CHURCHES

ed and brought with them scores of visitors was evidenced by the we'll filled houses of worship yesterday.
 Al the First Baptist church Rev. Or vile Coates preached a soul searching sermon on obedience" from the text found in the 22 V. of the 18th chapter of I. Samuel-''Behold, to obey is bet ter than sacrifice. and to hearken than the fat of rams."
 Some of the thoughts presented by Coates were:
 The Bible picture of Israers first king is a living picture of most men and women living under different con- ditions today.
 How many times We have been au- thoritatively commanded to do cer- tain things, But we have shirked our duty and responsibility by doing that part of the task which We wished to and leaving the remainder undone.
 The reckoning half hour with sam uel did away with Saurs excuses.
 Hath the Lord as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices as in obeying the voice of the Lord?"
 Behold to obey is better than sacri- flee, and to hearken than the fat of rams"
 Neither was Samuel depreciating the value of sacrifices. When sacrifices were commanded they were well pleas ing in the sight of God.
 Sacrifices meaning a break in self, a giving up of ones best possessions to God. when they were given in sub mission to Gods will and because God
 
 well pleasing in his sight.
 Even sacrifices lose their value when substituted for some other divine command.
 The motive of Saul was wrong. It was avarice.
 He did not intend to destroy all the spells of war, all the sheep and goats of the Amalekites.
 Ii is the tendency of human nature to deny ourselves that which We do not wish.
 We will do what God wants us to do unless we think by substituting something else for his command we may benefit ourselves to a greater de- gree.
 How many of us having done as we saw lit with the divine command of the Lord"
 No amount of donations with which to build churches or colleges can con- done for shrewd scheming and injur- ing helpless individuals. and the Bap- tist denomination would today be in a more self-respecting position if it had persistently refused to the gifts from the "Oil King"
 Obedience means lowing to Gods will. giving way to the great loving wisdom of the Father who knows what is best for us all time.
 Saul did not stop to think that the destruction of the Amalekites was a moral Immigration.
 Gods commands are never burden some or impossible and neither good resolutions, moral living or large con- tributions can be substituted for the present day command. Repent, be- lieve, be baptized, observe to His glory the Lords supper and then go ye into every land and preach the gospel"
 Heeding the spoken words of Jesus, great will be their meaning if his de- ciples but show forth the life of Jesus to the world by their own perfect liv- ing.
 A communion service followed the morning sermon.

NOT THE ONLY KIckERS-It ap

pears that other towns are displeased with that referred to in these col umns, regarding the eligibility rule made by Tucson. If the following from the Tucson Citizen is any indica- tion of the way the tide is moving. Phoenix may yet be able to get into the tourney with the Browns if they are hurriedly organized. Says the Cit izen: Already territorial teams are kicking about the 30-day eligibility rule. The Phoenix Republican inti- mates that the clause was inserted to cinch the big prize for Tucson and says that Manager Goldberg of Phoe- nix will not enter a team here as the players he is after would not be al- lowed to play. It is to be hoped that Phoenix or any other town will be allowed to bring any professionals they feel like securing"

LAWS IN CHINA.
They Take No Account of the Inten-
 tions of the Accuaed

Ihey rake No Account of the Inten-
 tions of the Accused.
 The incompatibility of laws based on diverse civilizations is nowhere more marked than in China says Ho sea B. Morse in the Atlantic There no bankruptcy law is possible. If a debtors own estate will not suffice to pay his debts the deficiency must be made good by his father. brothers or uncles; if a debtor absconds his im- mediate family are promptly imprison- ed; If the debtor returns he Is put In prison and kept there indefinitely, so long as he can find money for his daily food until released by payment In full or by death. This is the law.
 When In 1895 Admiral Ting found himself forced to surrender Weihaiwei and his fleet, he committed suicide. By this courageous step, technically dying before surrender, he saved his immediate family mother, sons and daughters decapitation and their property from confiscation, the penalty when commander surrenders an imperial fortress. This is the law.
 When in the old days an English gunner caused the death of a Chinese by firing salute from a cannon from which by oversight the ball had not been removed, he was seized tried and executed. And in 1889, when in the course of a disturbance with Eng lish and American sailors at Canton Chinese was killed. the authorities de- manded that if the guilty person could not be detected and executed the whole party should be handed over for execution. This is the law.
 Intention is never taken into ac- count. A dollar for dollar, an eye for an eye, a life for life, and all for the emperor and his>-representa tives-this is the law of China.

The Department store.


 The organization of great depart ment store is almost military in its discipline and is one of the best exam pies of what organization can accom-. plish. The proprietor is commander in chief, and under him are a number of assistants who are what might be con. sldered district supervisors. Below them are the heads of departments, who are responsible to their district chief or to some other head. The floor walker, the man who Is so much in evidence because he spends his time in the aisles, is. in fact, superintend- ent or foreman in charge of a depart ment or series of departments Each counter is under the general super vision of what is known as head salesman, but this head salesman Is subject to the direction of the floor walker.-"Starting In Life" by N. c.

A Valuable Work

One of the mots interesting and val. uable books that has bene brought to our notice for some time is the Preside University of Modern Invention, indus try and Art, by John McGovern of Chicago. Some of the subjects it treats of are Electricity, The X-Ray, Com
 pressed Air, The Spectroseope, Modern Photography and Astronomy. Sixty-fve pages are given to Chemistry. Ten chap tcrs are devoted to Foods and Food Supplies, and three are also chapters on Our Clothes, Heat and Light, India Rubber, etc. The book is especially de. signed for the use of high school pupils and home circle study, and the subjects are treated, as far as possible, without the use of technical terms. Anyone of a dozen chapters is worth the price of the book Miss Daisy M. Stockberger is canvassing Globe for subscriptions to the Preside University. Miss Stock berger is recent arrival here from the Lake copper district, Michigan, where she met with splendid success in the sale of this book and secured indorse

YOUR OWN FACE.
Would You Recognize It if You Saw
 If on Anothers

It on Anothert
 "How curious 1t is," said the phlIos, opher, that the person for whom you care most on earth, the one you see oftenest and who receives your most constant attention, Is the one whose countenance is least familiar to you"
 "Who Is thatY asked the visitor.
 Yourself" said the philosopher Tt Is fact that if people could be dupli. cated and could meet themselves in the street very few would recognize them selves. We look at ourselves many times during the 3G5 days of the year. We say our eyes are blue or brown or whatever other color they may be. our hair black, our chin peaked, our fore head high. We know every lineament of our face from constant study and attention, yet when we turn away from the mirror We cannot conjure up a picture of ourselves
 "We know Just how our friends and even acquaintances look. In fancy we can see them sitting so or standing so and their varying expressions under different circumstances are clear to us even though we may not have seen them for years, but when 1t comes to ourselves we cannot i'll in even the outlines of the picture. We may laugh, we may cry, we may frown, but we do not know how we look while we are doing it. Photographs do not help us. We have never seen ourselves in the flesh. Mirrors and pictures are poor aids when we sit down and try to see ourselves with the minds eye
 That Is why people are so deeply interested in anybody who Is said to resemble them. Just say to 6 man. I know somebody who Is the dead i'm age of you and he will never rest till he sees that person. Then if the like ness Is really true he will own that up to that time he had had no coneep- ton of how he really looked"

AN OCEAN IN THE AIR.
The Queer Superstition That Once
 Prevailed Tn England.

The curious superstition that there Is an ocean above the clouds is illus trated by the following strange story by an old English writer: One Sunday the people of Il certain village were coming out of church OH thick, cloudy day when they saw the anchor of ship hooked to one of the tomb stones, the cable, Which was tightly stretched, banging down from the air. The people were astonished. and while they were consulting about it suddenly they saw the rope move as though some one labored to pull up the an chor. The anchor. however, still held was heard in the air like the shouting of sailors. Presently a sailor was seen sliding down the cable for the purpose of unfixing the anchor. When he had just loosened it the villagers seized hold of him, and while in their hands he quickly died. just as though he had been drowned
 About an hour later the sailors above. hearing no more of their com rade, cut the cable and sailed away In memory of this extraordinary event the people of the village made the hinges of the church doors out of the iron Of the anchor" Ii is further stat cd that these hinges are still 10 be seen there" n bit O. evidence much like Munchausens rope wherewith he once climbed to the moon If you doubted the story you were confronted with the rope
 There is another queer tale about this aerial ocean "A merchant of Bris- tol" it is said. "set sail with his cargo for Ireland. Some time after, while his family were at supper knife sudden ly fell in through window on the ta- ble. When the merchant returned and saw the knife he declared 1t to be his own and said that on such a day, at such an hour, while sailing in an un- known part of the sea. he dropped the knife overheard, and the day and the hour were found to be exactly the time when it fell through the window" All of which was once implicitly believed by many and regarded as lnc0ntroyert- ible proof of the existence of sea above the sky. One Is at loss to con lecture how that unknown part of the sea" connected with the rest of It. A physical geography showing this would be no small curiosity

The Nickname.

The public man in America who has never been tagged with a nickname may be Just as efficient and worthy of praise as his brethren who are known as "BilP' and Joe" but he has not achieved an equal measure of popular ity. Nicknames are oftener inspired by direction than by aversion "The men of the people" so called, are invari- ably nicknamed. Venerable citizens still refer to Abe" Lincoln dwelling with reminiscent affection upon the ab- breviation. Nicknames both good and bad are as old as history. In this coun- try the people have way of abbrevi- ating the names of the men they really like and assigning their full titles to the men who prefer dignity to popular
