ton and reverence. Read it not in
the captious spirit of critic, but
with the humility Of a disciple of
Christ. Read it not SO much with
the desire of information as Of edi-
fcation. Read it with the same
spiritual joy and hunger with which
the exiled children of Israel list
ened in Babylon to the law when it
was read to them by the prophet
Baruch.
While the citizens Of Jerusalem
were in captivity in Babylon, Ba-
ruch was sent to them from Jerusa-
lem to read to them the law of God.
And when they heard the law they
wept and tasted and prayed before
the Lord" Upon the ruins of
Babylon they sat and wept when
they remembered Zion"
You, my beloved, are in a situa-
tion like that of the Jews. Like
them, you are far away from your
true home, the heavenly Jerusalem.
Like them, you are exiled in the
Babylon of this world. And God
sends you, as He sent them, mes
sage contained in His holy books
to cheer your hearts and bring you
glad tidings of redemption.
Is not the sacred scripture a
message from heaven? Open your
hearts, then, as the ancient He
brews did, and listen to the word of
God with sorrow for sin, with d
spirit of holy conjunction and in
increased desire of possessing the
heavenly Jerusalem. And may God,
who enriches the earth with His
early and latter rain, enrich your
souls with the dews of heavenly
grace that you may hear the word
in patience and bring forth fruit
an hundredfOld.

run a special train to Wallula to take
the Daily Opera company to that city
so that they might be taken to North
Yakima over the Northern Pacific.
This train also took passengers for
Spokane as the train which has been
lying at Wallula for twodays was or
dered to leave for Spokane Immediately
after the arrival of the Walla Walla
train.
The situation on the o. r. & N re-

but otherwise nothing doing. The pas

Tomorrow night is the earliest at

VIOLATED THE shERIFF'S RULES
HAD BEEN WELL BEHAVED PRIs-

BEEN LIBERATED.
VIOLATED THE shER|FF's RULES

Because he violated the rules of the
sheriff's office, Jack Richardson who
is serving an S-months term in the
county Jail, will probably serve out his
entire sentence. instead of being parol-
ed. He was convicted Of larceny at
the fall term of the superior
court. While coming to this city from
Pendleton last summer in company
with a man named Brown he took
Browns watch. The police recovered
the watch in local pawn shop.
The court promised to cut down
Richardson's time if he should behave
himself well. Some time ago Rich
ardson's attorney took the matter up
with the court. The judge decided to
look into the matter later. Richard
son has been a we'll behaved prisoner
but he violated the rules of the sheriff
Some time ago when prisoner was re-
leased from the Jail, Richardson gave
him letter to mail. The letter was
recovered before it was placed in the
pOStOffice. The letter was written to
Richardson's parents. 1t was an ap-
peal for money. According to the re-
gulatiOnS of the sheriff all mail must
pass through the Office before being re-
ceived or sent by the prisoners
The sheriff's Office will not be repre-
sented on the petition to the judge and

SCHOOL FIGHT GOES OVER
Judge Brents Declines to Hear the
Case Before the March Election
Settles Board Personnel.

Attorneys in the Wallula school case
were disappointed this afternoon
when Judge Brents of the superior
court refused to hear the matter.
A restraining order was issued some
time ago instructing the directors to
refrain from interfering with the
school, The hearing was to have been
held February II. Owing to the train
service the persons concerned could
not reach the city. The case was
then postponed until after the school
election March 2.
Attorneys representing both sides
of the case appeared this afternoon
and wanted to argue the question.
Judge Brents refused. - The hearing
will be held some time after the elec-
ton a week from Saturday.
