SENTENCE SERMONS.
Chicago Tribune)

Killing time is soul suicide.
Prosperity is stiff test of Diety.
No man finds fame by hunting il.
There Is no obedience under COmpul-
sion.
Picked piety is bound to give some
body pain.
Ideals of character are the con-
science of society.
He never finds himself who never
denies himself.
You never will find faith by running
away from facts.
The higher religion is to do the low
Hest things We'll
They who pour out their hearts
never empty them.
A man may deceive himself, but he
never fools destiny.
Truth cannot be found while sQui1.t-
ing at popular opinion.
Revenge is never so sweet as when
we refuse to entertain ii.
Our toughest experiences often arise
from our smOothest tricks.
You cannot travel toward heaven if
you turn your back on truth.
Some talk so hard about duty they
have no strength left for deeds.
You cannot be a leader and lose
sight of those who are to be led.
The shortness of the day excuses no
man from greatness of endeavOr.
The mournfuI saint works a good
deal more harm than the cheerful sim
ner.
The faith that shows I'D strong OF
the fence may fail altogether when it
gets on the field
If we never do the things we do OF
like we never will be able II do the
things we desire.
It's not the man who says the loudest
amen who makes the most impression
ON heaven.
Many a man thinks his life is cloud
ed over, when the truth is he is bury
ing his head in the steam Of his own
sighings-
People who lay their sins on the old
Adam are not anxious to have their
successes attributed to him.

Times may change, men may come
and go, the mutations of earth may
work their ends. statesmen may live
and die and be forgotten. but Fern
strom, the only surviving charter mem
Der of the city council of Salt Lake
pursues his cheerful way forever. Time
and again his opponents in and out of
the Democratic party have had him
dead and buried, his political obituary
written, the flowers ordered and the
mourners assembled, only To- find the
corpse prepared TO lead the festivities
at the wake and wish them all happy
evening
AS in former years, the Scandinavian
statesman from the Third was billed
for a last Patti farewell this year. Has
lam was going to beat him, and then
the Americans" were going to beat
Haslam. 1t was a cinch, loaded and
nickel-plated and bound with gold
hoops; you couldn't find surer thing.
''Ferny'' acted as though he believed
it himself; apparently he had made his
estate and made all preparation for a
peaceful, quiet departure from politics.
On the night Of the ward convention
he dropped in, Of course; 1t had come
to be a habit with him, and he couldn't
be expected TO foregO the pleasure of
hearing what the brethren had to say
about it,
The delegates assembled, the nomina-
lions were made; Fernstrom was
named by some one who couldn't bear
to see a convention pass in the Third
without mention of ''Ferny." but it was
only a matter of form and no one ex-
pected to see him chosen. Still no word
from the councilman. The Sphinx was
a laxative old woman compared to
him.
After all was said and the voting
was finished and counted, it was dis
covered that by some mischance Fern
strom had been nominated again-and
for the long term! None so surprised
as the councilman. though of course he
was too considerate to decline; and
what was equally surprising, quite by
chance again, an unknown who hap
pened to be Fernstroms choice was
named for the short term.
This persistent disappointment in
their plans is beginning to get on the
nerves of the Republicans and "Ameri-
cans" as one can see by their comment
on Fernstrom. They have hoped. yea.
yearned, for his defeat. He knows
more about city affairs than all the
american" administration put togeth-
er; and he is always on deck with in
opportune questions and embarrassing
statements of fact in council meetings.
He is better authority on city law

humor in this high-sounding promise.
The Americans" are strong in their
demand for complete freedom in po-
litical affairs untouched by any faint
of apostolic control" but their real
leaders have no particular objection to
gang" rule in political affairs if they
can only name the gang. No apostles
need apply, but Darmer and Dunbar
and Lippman and -Sanpete" Armstrong
will do very well as substitutes.
About the only difference between the
Smoot machine and the American"
machine is in the personnel of the ma
chinists: and even there the weli-ad-
vised see but little choice between
them. Both talk in reverberating peri
DDS of patriotism" of love of country,
of disinterested devotion to the welfare
of the beloved ''peepul;" both utilize
all the flowers of rhetoric to tell how
Unselfish they are and how much they
have done for the city; and both pro-
pose to place political affairs in, the
hands of little coteries that care more
logue of principles.
The platform of the Americans" is a
repetition of it's affirmations of former
years, with an appendix claiming cred

made in recent years including those
inaugurated by Mayor Morris and the

Sheets, the McWhirter case, the S75, 900

cussed in the campaign.

PERCY MARTIN,
YOUNG CONVICT,
DECLARES CIGARETTES AND
LIQUOR CAUSED HIM TO HOLD
UP SEABOARD TRAIN

Norfolk. Va. March p. - Presi-
cent Garrett, of the Seaboard Air
Line, is now out of the city ana
will be away a week on a general
inspection trip of the Seaboard sys-
tenn, but it was reported at his Office
yesterday morning that he has been
correctly reported on the Percy
Martin train robbery case, when ne
declared that Martins thirteen-year
prison sentence was due primarily to
whiskey and cigarettes
Mr.. Ramps. assistant to President
Garret, explained that Martin was
brought TO Norfolk and to Mr. Car
rett's Office the day following his
capture. Martin said he boarded a
Seaboard train with $2.5O in his
pockets. He was going toward his
home in Wes' Virginia when he
drank bottle of whiskey he had
and smoked freely of cigarettes.
The two made him crazy, he said.
He arose from his seat in the train
and started to the rear to commit
suicide either by jumping of the
train or shooting himself and falling
on. Suddenly he declared the idea
of robbery came to him.
Then he put his pistol through a
Pullman curtain and robbed one man
of 1925 and a diamond ring. He
then shot the conductor because he
thought the latter was about to
shoot him. Martin declared whiskey
and cigarettes were responsible for
his acts. He is to serve thirteen
years in the penitentiary.
