king: now then do it" The preacher said: "Ishboshette is king of Israel. David is reigning over his tribes in Hebron It had been advised that David be made king of all the tribes. Abner says. Now then do it. Com summate the plan; act now. Many need this advice in regard to making Jesus King in their life. God has rais- ed Christ from the grave and crowned Him King. You need to make Him King in your life Jesus claimed to be King. He said. l am your Lord and Master His claim is founded on His sinlesS character. He is right in His life and no man can convince Him or sin Jesus is Creation. By Him all things were made He is the great unifying power. In Him all things consist that is. hold together Fake Christ out of the world and it would collapse He was King over the mate rial world as seen in His miracles. God has said. Every tongue shall confess Him. God has given Him the right hand on the throne in heaven and all men, devils and angels. shall confess Jesus. Some in fear and some in love.
 No man can enter the kingdom of heaven except he confesses Jesus as King of kings and Lord of lords. The gospel is the story of his sacrifice that made heaven possible. In His name, in His power you are given the priv ilege of the heavenly kingdom. All Christians crown Jesus as their Lord for the rich provisions which he makes and the high fellowship he offers. The Holy Spirit urges men to confess Jesus as Lord. No man can say Jesus is Lord but by the Holy Spirit To crown Jesus a man must accept Him. His love and His forgiveness. and in open confession acknowledge Him. Obey Him and let Him have first place in His life. 1T Jesus is King in q life. then that life~ will be in harmony with Him
 Do il now. put aside indifference, forsake sin. deny self and let Jesus be crowned King in Your heart. Do not neglect the most important step. Con- fess Him in life voluntarily and do not wait until in the judgment you confess Him through fear Of His wrath. Do it now and save yourself. Exalt Him and He will eXalt you
 Today at 9 pm. the theme will be. The Spirit Filled Life The evening subject for the prelude will be. How Phoenix May Win Against the Sa- looms" The subject of the sermon will be. ''The Funeral of the Soul"

SPEND THE MONEY.
A Demand Upon Congress For Public
 Works on a Large Scale.

The SiXtieth Congress finds a pecu- liar situation confronting 1t. In a time of plenty it finds che spirit of lcannesS. In the midst of abundance there is d cry of distress. With an overflOwing treasury there is money famine. with bountiful crops there is a stop page of railroad wheels. The farmer has the food which the consumer needs. and the railroads are ready to haul it to the seaboard, where ships are ready to receive il; but. for lack of money, the blood of business. there is paralysis. The system is radically wrong-it has broken down.
 There iS d multitude of doctors of fering remedies. Statesmen are dark enins counsel with words. No man is SD small, so ignorant SO humble that he cannot offer, d specific remedy for the country's financial ailment. The most exalted are not free from their share of cocksureness as to the reason for the breakdown and the best way of patching up matters. Congress will be pestered with brilliant ideas for the next six months. IL will be embar- rassed by the variety of happy exits from danger.
 But this is not what the country wants just now. IL is not hankering after debates on financial reform. It wants relief. immediate relief. an cas- ing up of an intolerable situation. What can congress do to help)it? Will debates do it? Will caucuses and committee hearings and amendments? Will partisan scheming and petty manoeuvring and grasping of paltry advantages?
 No, this is the time Tor patriotism. not partianship. It is a time for giants. not weddings. This is hun dred billion dollar country-a giant among the nations. Let it be treated as a giant. Let congress meet the emergency with giants boldness, initiative. and breadth of view. Ls

presided over by Miss Elizabeth Ken
 drick. who Is one of the. members who visited the exposition last summer. and
 who led in the discussions yesterday.
 During the meeting various members
 made remarks and some gave quite
 lengthy descriptions of what they had
 seen at the big show IL was treated
 of in rather an anylitic=tl way. different
 members discussing different features.
 rather than general talk which would
 result in repetition.
 i Mrs. L. D Dameron gave a most in
 tercsting description of the naval eN- : hibition. having been present when the ibig squadron of ships of all nations iwere reviewed by the president. She l told of the manner in which the ships ! were decorated and of their revolutions. iAlJeTnating with each of the large yes sels Was al smaller craft constructed
 as q float. setting forth some appro- ] priate idea. For Instance one float wsiS the Pipe of Peace Electric : liz nts haG been arranged in the shape of an immense pipe which practically covered the entire ouat and as it pass ed by the assembled thousands il was botE beautiful and suggestive. AI.rs Cameron also told of very interesting personal inspection of the battt.ship Louisiana which she had the pleasure of viewing in all its details. Her party Was Irder the personar con rduct of Harlow Rays. a young naval officer whose home is in Phoenix. or al /1east whose parents live here. and whose mother. Mrs. Emory Rays. is a member of the Woman's club. Mrs. HarJr.Inft gave a very interest ins talk (on the architecture of the Jamestown exposition. describing many of the buildings in detail and particularly thoso along the water front
 Mrs. Cushman made a few appropri ate remarks thai might be styled the sermon preached by the exposition
 though the subject was the reasons
 why il was a failure or at least par tiaily so. one reason was the rxtor-
 tionare methods practiced when the exposition was first opened and anoth- er Wa.s that many exhibits which it
 was advertised would be there were not to be found on the grounds tt failed 1o keep it's promises and that is always sufficient reason for failure.

it open the treasury and build the. great works that the country has been clamoring for, the works that are needed for the public welfare The country has Outsrown its swaddling clothes. Some of the facilities. so called. furnished by Congress are ludicrously insufficient The govern ment is in need of great buildings in Washington for the transaction of the peoples business. To say nothing of providing for future needs, the present necessities are crying for re- lief. Other cities are denied the facil- ities that their growth demands. Among the thousands of proposals be- fore congress for the spending of mon ey, there are hundreds of absolute merit. and scores which are not onIy meritoriOus, but Immediately neces- sary.
 The people would applaud a con gress with vigOr and courage enough to take their money and devote it to their needs. That is what the money is for. It has been granted Iiberally It was not given to be hoarded. T. was given for public needs. including the building of a great. splendid navy. the constduction of adequate public buildings. the Improvement of rivers and harbors, the administration of justice. the completion of coast de- lenses. the proper arming and equip ment of the army. the lighting of the coasts. the carrying of the mails. the development of commerce.. and other desirable ends.
 The government is the worst hoard CT in the United States. The treasury. bursting with the peoples money. is d reproach to congress at such a time as this. when the people are tied hand and foot because of Ine lack of cur rency. Let the hoard be scattered in to the channels of trade. Let the needs of the country be provided for, Let congress relegate its cheap poIi- ticians to the rear. and give it's giants a chance to handle the country-s busi- ness on giants scale e-Washington Pest

ARWSO & COMPANY
 CLOSE CORPORATION
The Breaking of Compact in Which
 the Stake Was Life.

The daily addition of Alberto Arviso the New York store thief, 10 the ap- pendix of his earlier confessions is one of the diversions of life at police head quarters Yesterdays installment however was probably the last that the police vii. he regaled with as Ar viso was transferred to the county jail last night Any subsequent confess sions he desires to make will be for the edification of the sheriff or the court.
 Yesterdays recital further simplifie1 matters. providing he is telling the truth. and the story seems very plau- sible. He said that the Chinaman. Quong Sam Lee, had charge of the transportation department of the firms business and was the man who drove the wagon last Saturday night IL is hardly. reasonable t0 suppose that the two partners would care to let any more people into their secret than was necessary and especially in view of the deadly compact Arviso says h, made with the Chinaman. That was that neither was to tell anything in the event of any illustration of their plans to which the Chinaman added that If he told he would expect ven geance at the hands of Arviso and that if Arviso told. the Chinaman or the latter's friends would kill him. Arviso seems to be more afraid of the possible sequel to this pledge than he is of the law. In any event he is manipulating matters so that if he has to travel down Yuma way Quong sam Lee will probably be on the same train.
 Yesterday MT. korrick. proprietor of the New York store. furnished the fol- lowing list of goods that were recov- cred from the Chinaman and how much has been stolen that was not re- covered can only be guessed at: 47 pairs of overalls. 23 shirts. II black shawls. 120 handkerchiefs. g yards of black satteen. $50 yards of calico. 200 yards of gingham. 150 yards of mus lin. There were two white shirts which were afterward found to have been taken from Goldberg Bros stock.

REST FOR THE POOR OCTOPUS

The octopus chase k rather languid this congress compared with its imme- diate predecessor. The Hon. Joseph E. Forakcr made some predictions in the spring of 1906 that events have rather | justified. A great big slice of Ameri- can wealth consists Of some 23O.000
 miles of railroads worth on the mar ket. when the octopus chase began.
 some s6O.OOO per mile. or in the az
 gregate about $14.00O. .000 .0OO. That property k worth or. rather. it would fetch. good deal less at this read ing.
 The government has undertaken to say how much a railroad shall charge for given service. and it is now pro- posed. in a bill MT La Toilette has fathered. that no railroad shall earn more than certain per cent on it's actual value and there are sorts of suggestions as to what the actual value is. one set asserts. with much pertinacity and infinite verbosity. that S6.000. .000.00O would be a big price for the whole lot. and it is a fixed prin- ciple of this school that no railroad shall profit by the law of accretion in value. For example. if farmer in Kansas bought his homestead at & an acre. forty years ago. he may sell it for $l00 an acre now: but if d railroad bought a depot site in Chicago. forty years ago. for Sl00.00O that is now worth s1.000.000 without Improvements that property shall be listed at s1O0.- U00 when il comes to computing what that road shall earn on it's value"
 Was there ever anything more ab- surd? Is it not pure robbery in the guisc of legalized confiscation? No wonder the railroads are crippled. And when the railroads of America are crippled every household in this broad Union is injuriously affected whether its head be a stockholder or not.
 But in the opinion of the Post the octopus chase this session will be q rather tame affair
 The pool octopus will get d rest From the Washington Post.

New Way to Drain Mines.

- me poVeI idea Ot a German mining engineer is an endless rope band as a pump in boreholes This absorbs a large quantity of oil. or salt and acid solutions. and the liquid is squeezed out between rollers as the rope Is drawn upward. As the only weight .to be lifted is that of the liquid on the ascending side the method is suggest ed as economical for draining mines as well as pumping oil.
