A SLEEPY OLD CAME
 LONG HOSPITAL LIST
The Bankers and Remnants of All Stars in a Horse Play at East lake Park.

Owing to the prevalency of some ail (not ale) among the ball tossers yesterday, the battery Cuber and Nor ris from Mesa and some of the sick boys at home, Warmers ball club appeared at Eastlake park with a disheveled and tattered array. It looked like a complete throw down among the All Stars and things which transpired in the game that followed ought not to be printed in a great family journal.
 The faithful fans drowsed in the late afternoon sun or looked long ingly at the lake, where three men put to sea in a boat rowed by a lady It was a cool and convenient place to go drown oneself. Occa- sionally a cricket chirruped, or a slumberer snOred musically-but for these no signs of life could be seen anywhere. Ever and anon some one gasped, rolled off his perch and was seen sneaking out, careful not to tread on anyone's corns.
 Disorganized ball is highly unsatis- factory. Though the score was not large there was no contest, no inter est, no life. The aggregations as sembled might have played better ball, indeed often have played SUI periOr games, but yesterday the ab- sence of those counted on, seemed to take all the snap out of the rem nants. It was a distinct disappoint- ment, even at a tune of } to against the All Stars.
 Dare worked out a nice floater curve which fooled the best batters c. O. Vinson took his place later in the box and, despite his inexperience as a tosser, found it not difficult to fan sofe of them. L. Quiros who start ed off unwillingIy for the opponents of the Bank brigade was wild and was followed by Grijalva. who did well enough for a few rounds; then War ner went to the slab. Stamhaugh was seen behind the bat for the first time and did not do so bad, while Stice was switched over to play with the depleted ranks of the old team.
 Had Cuber and Morris showed up no doubt a good exhibition might have taken place. Still it drew no crowd, and only one of three things remains for the sake of the national pastime, and that is to quit entirely, reorganize the city league, or bring in professional players. Phoenix now has no nine which can compete with outside towns worthy of name. There is some likely material for a team but it must work in harmony
 Besides the hospital list already accounted for, another was added in the game when Rudolnh hit his finper against an inshoOt and that member of his hand was fearfully mashed. Sullivan umpired but his sight on balls and strikes was afflicted by the same malady which had infected the ball players. Wasn't it awful, Mabel?

Miss Anna Matthews left last week for Cornell university. where she has been admitted into the freshman year without condition and with nearly enough credits to cover the first years work. This is quite a compliment to the Normal as Miss Matthews grad uated with the class of '06. She took only a little extra work, completing the full course in Latin and English. Since her graduation at the Normal she has taught in the Phoenix city schools.

KNOWLEDGE OF PAUL
 BASIS OF HIS BELIEF
Subject of Discourse Yesterday Morn ing by Rev. c. Sidney Maddox.

For I know whom I have believed
 and am persuaded that he is able to
 keep that which I have committed
 unto him against that day" II. Tim
 othy, 1:12, was the text of Rev. C.
 Sidney Maddox's sermon at the Bap-
 tist church yesterday morning. He
 saidE
 Tt comes from Nero's prison cell, ringing in clear, concordant notes.
 There is no sadness to mar the glo- rious- uplift of the theme, but it's pathos fills and thrills the inner man. It's deep tenderness hypnotizes the heart. Its profound solemnity draws one near God. Paul in his swan song says more sweetly than ever, His glorious work is ended and He counsels Timothy with love and long suffering He has a right to glory in his work and the utter ances in chapter four and verse seven, comes from one close to God.
 Like Job afflicted in a multitude of ways and harassed and reviled by his friends, he cries out, T know that my Redeemer liveth.' Paul cries out from a Roman dungeon, I know Him whom I have believed Martyrdom was always his and he testifies as much. Paul realizes that he must now die for the gospel he has preach ed, but firm as the adamantine walls of time, as clear and resonant as the sherpehrd's horn at morning on the Alpine hills, comes this peal of thought, faith, confidence, from him, oe and Jerusalem, left alone, deserted with cruel and brutish Nero, he is ready to repeat his memorable works which should strike deep into every mans heart. None of these things move me- The headsman has no terror for him and there is no dread of the hereafter, for Paul knows whom he has believed. Can you have this confidence and assurance?
 Strong Son of God, immortal Love whom we that have not seen thy face by faith, and faith alone embrace, believing where we can not prove! Let the word of God answer. Look first at the general invitation Christ Jesus gives, If any man let him come to me and drink Come and I will in no wise cast out The word is full of comes and running over with fraternal love Examine if you will that great per feet square, John 3:16. The 'Whoso- ever is that not that sufficient to include all? Then old Isaiah in 32:17, And the work of righteousness shall be peace and the effect of righteous ness, quietness and assurance For a time? No. Forever If that is not sufficient, turn to Romans s, 3S and 39 This great stronghold of grace. Can Gods love be alienated rom his children? Nothing can sep arate us from the love of God which s in Christ Jesus our Lord
 Faith builds bridge across the gulf of Death to break the shock blind nature shuns.' (Young.)
 |" He is able to keep the treasure delivered unto Him. Or guard it. Paul has committed all delivered lis treasures into the keeping of he Christ. In this age men are loath Q trust even God. There is rebel- on and anarchy in the atmosphere"

SENATOR ANKENY.

To the Editor of The Republican:
 Sir:-I notice in this mornings Re publican, your editorial which, in a way, laments the defeat of Senator Ankeny of Washington by the people of that state. All true Arizonians should lament this defeat.
 Before the test vote was taken in the United States senate on joint statehood three years ago-it was Senator Ankeny who promised faith fully to stand by Arizona and vote against joint statehood. It was Sena- tor Ankeny who told Governor Mur- phy and myself, only the night be- fore the vote was taken, that he was still with us. It was this same Senator Ankeny who, when the roll call was had, was the first man on the list to vote against us. It was this same senator who, with four other senators, had been fixed by Senator Beveridge and his crowd some three days before the vote was taken so that instead of having five or six majority against joint statehood. as we should have had, we escaped with only one majority. Certainly the people of Arizona should lament ltt utItdl OL SUCH d llldlt. llt people of the state of Washington evidently had the right measure of the man when they voted to retire him to private life.
 D. H. PENNEY.
 Phoenix, September II.
 The Republican if it appeared to lament the defeat of Senator Ankney, has been misunderstood by Judge Pinney. It merely alluded to him as a conservative senator who had given his state a reputation for conserva- tism. It also connected his defeat with the tendency of Washington toward radicalism lately. Though the work of Senator Ankney may not have been reliable in joint state hood matters; though he may have had a distorted notion of his duty as a party man at that time, it must still be conceded that he has cut conservative figure in the United States senate.

{ From SATURDAYS Daily

Robert Verne Baker was elected
chairman of the Republican county com
mittee at the nrst session Of the com
mittee at the Court House this after
noon and John Zens who had been his
chief opponent for the office of chair
man was named as secretary of the

eight votes necessary to elect him on
the first formal ballot taken by the
committee and Mr.. Zens received the
same number of votes as a candidate
for secretary.
The committee was called to order
by County Chairman G. B. Reinhardy
and the great majority Of the members
chosen at the recent primary were
present. The list included E. F. Mark

orally discussed before the meeting was
called and while several Of the mem

head of the committee. It was evident
however, that District Attorney Baker
was considered as the most available
man for the place. While the commit
tee waited, plans for the campaign
were discussed informally by the mem
bers of the committee and it is certain
that the committee will arrange to put
up one of the most aggressive campaigns
that the Republicans of the county
have ever known. There were reports
from the different parts Of the county
and none of these reports showed any
reason for the Republicans to expect
the loss of the county, but all believed
that hard work would be necessary to
get out the normal Republican vote
this year.

Pleasant Prairie Mutual Insurance
Co. Goes Out Of Business
After Heavy Losses
ENDS "a YEARS LIFE
Losses for the Year Have Been
Greater Than Losses Paid in the
Twenty-three Years of the
Conpany's Existence

After tWenty-four years Of life the
Pleasant Prairie Mutual Insurance
Company is going out of business and
S. B. Cropley, the secretary Of the com
pany is now busy winding up the af-
fairs Of the company by collecting the
last assessment made on the stockhold-
ers to pay the heavy fire loss at the
farm OF 9. d. Holt and Sons two weeks
ago. The company is closing out it's
business in an honorable manner, the
members simply reaching the conclusion
that it would be cheaper to buy old
line insurance than to pay the heavy
losses in the Auture. For twenty
three years the company went along
sWimmingly and all the losses in all
those years amounted to but $230O.
However, the last year has been a
year Of disasters for the company and
the losses Of the single year amounted
to considerable more than the entire
losses of the company in it's history.
Many Of the best known men Of the
town of Pleasant Prairie have been as
ISOLATED in the company and it has
been rated as one of the strongest Of
the mutual companies in the state.
The final meeting, Of the stockhold-
ers of the company was held at the
town hall on last Tuesday afternoon.
At that time Secretary Cropley inform
ed the members that since the fire at
the holt farm on which the company
carried an insurance Of $2700, between
twenty-five and thirty Of the stockhold-
ers had Cancelled their policies and that
should there be fire under the cir
cumstances the loss to the individual
farmers would be very heavy. At the
meeting stock to the amount of $4,000
was represented and all of these men
Cancelled their policies. There were a
few of the stockholders not present at
the meeting and until they have form
ally notified the secretary to cancel the
policies they would be proportionately
liable for any loss among the insured
in the company. TIC this extent the
company is not out Of business, but
these men were all notified to come to
the meeting and they will cancel the
policies held by them within few
days.
There is some talk Of the organization
OF new mutual company in Pleasant
Prairie, but this will probably be some
time in the future and in the meantime
the agents for old line companies are
making hard fight for the farm bust
ness In that part of the county.
There are mutual companies in sew
eral Of the towns Of the company and
the Pleasant Prairie company is the
only one to be hard hit during the
present year. The assessment which
has been levied to pay the loss of the
Holt property will undoubtedly be paid
by all the former stockholders within
the sixty days allowed for the payment.

The German Lutherans Of Kenosha
have sent call to Prof. Albrecht of
Milwaukee, widely known among teach
ers in the German Lutheran schools in
Milwaukee, to take charge of the paro
chial schools of the church in Keno
sha. Prof. Albrecht if he accepts the
call, will take the place of Prof. M. L.
Walz, recently called to Bay City, Mich
igan. The new teacher has been teach
ing in the Lutheran schools at Bay
View for a number of years and has
been most successful in his work. He

is expected from him before the end
of the present week.
Work on the new German Lutheran
school is progressing very rapidly and
it is expected that it will be ready
for use by the early part Of the new
year. When completed it will be one
of the finest school buildings in the
city.
