4 great misfortune comes to you
Like most misfortunes, it was unex.
, pected.
The unexpected happens in every life
Because it is unforeseen the jolt is /,
heavy one. Surprise is mingled with
the suffering. Such things, of course,
have happened to others. But to YOU
that's different. 1t is monstrous that
it should be So And you simply can
not endure this affiiction.
And yet in the very hour of your mis-
fortune your soul rises unconsciously
to meet the emergency.
Bvery hour and every day you con-
tinue to fashion yourself to fit the new
conditions. Little by little you adapt
yourself to the changed situation. The
burden is still on your back, but you
have adjusted the harness. 1t gals
you only occasionally, not continually.
as at first.
Mercifu] faculty!
A great sorrow, heartbreaking be-
reavement, comes into your life.
The violence of the blow staggers
you. Passing bells are ringing all the
world over, always, for some sad
mourner, but not for you-till now
You feel you cannot be happy again.
1t is too much to be borne. Life must
henceforth be hateful. The iron has
entered your soul.
And yet
Even while you cry out in your pain
the forces of your being are marshal
ing for resistance and defense.
There comes a reimbursement that per-
mits you to go on. though it may be
sorrowfuly. AS you grow accustomed
to the load it gets lighter. You realize
Eeenly that you will never be quite the
same as before the shock You have
been chastenel into something a little
different. But
1t is you!
Through it all you have preserved
the identity of your soul. You have
been passing under the road and
through the processes of readjustment
And by and by, it may be, you have
begun to see that even pain and sorrow
have their compensations. And grad
ually life again becomes worth the ljv-
,pg
AS the eye, passing from the sunlight
70 sudden darkness, slowly adapts
itself, SO does the soul of man adjust
itself TO new and changed conditions.
Is 1t not wonderful?
And true?

 Mrs. Crouch then entered upon her husbands record. She began by say ing that he was an all round crook, and had served two years and four months in San Quentin. She wrote: of course he was disbarred, but he took his old worthless certificate and had it registered in Olympia Wash and then he had that certificate reg istered in Phoenix.

A CROOKED LAWYER
 FORMERLY OF PHOENIX
The Los Angeles Bar Association Look
 ing Into the Record of J. C. Crouch

The Los Angeles Times which came to Phoenix yesterday had d long ac- count of proposed disbarhent pro- ceedings against Attorney J. C. Crouch on the charge of offering indignities to a young woman client. The agi- tatiOn of this affair stirred up some thing else, the alleged record of Crouch as a convict. The Times printed d picture of Crouch which he denies is his and he further denies the entire story that he served a term in the pen itentiary. There seems to be d lack of proof at Los Angeles of his peniten- tiary career, and il is admitted by the Times that the picture of him is a
 photographic puzzle"
 Yet a Phoenix attorney yesterday morning recognized it at once. before he read the accompanying matter and he was moreover in possession of fn- formation that Crouch had been an in- mate of San Quentin for three years. having been convicted at Stockton of grand larceny in 1897.

 At this stage it looked like ten in- nings possibly, but after one was gone Pierce muffed an easy fly, which gave 'oop hole for hope. and the High school took advantage of il, Jones driving Higley hcne with a smash to right and followed him on Blount's single. The redskins were sJmmarily disposed of in the last bats and the game was won. amid High school re- joioins. The winning gives the school a claim yet on the pennant and it is probable that another game will be played with the Indians next Saturday. The hard game will be the encounter with the Normal which will take place ut Eastlake park. Gormely uInpired the contest yesterday very sausfac- torily.

THE HUMILIATION or

High School Found the Redskins
 Pitcher With Disastrous Frequency.

1 A very liberal sprinkling of fans { tourists and others, yesterday after i noon at the Indian school grounds wit ] messed the humiliation of the Indians at the hands Of the Phoenix High school by a score of to ,. It was an even better game than the majority of 1 amateur combats seen in the city. the outcome being in doubt till the last
 man was laid away in the hearse.
 The tally sheet was a balance in the
 sixth and again in the eighth the tie
 was on, which was unknotted in the
 first of the ninth by the three bagger
 of Prof. Jones which scored Higley
 The High school team had on battins clothes, hamrr ering out p safties. in cluding a three bagger. and a pair of two base hits, one of which hoisted by Higley to the cOwpens. would have been good for a home run except for tho ground rules in respect to the left field fence. The redskins piloted five bingles to intended territory. which were insufficient to knock the persim-
 mon of victory. and only the fielding mistakes of the High school team gave them a look-in.
 Hurley pitched nice game, having at his command controI of an under
 hand inshoOt which the Indians could
 not solve, and also mixed up few outs and drops. and speedy ones straight over, that W Orked the batters to a fin
 ish. The Indian twirler had an off day apparently for he kept offering the same candy to the High school batters
 that they liked. and as a result they never let up on him. Higley and Jones both hit safely four times. Hurley struck out II and Ochfcho il cppon- ents.
 The High school went to bat first and secured one run on Higley's single. an error at third and Blount's safety. The redskins tallied two in their haH. being added by base on balls. one man hit. and two stolen bases and single In the second session both pitchers achieved the distinction of retiring the side on three strike outs each Two singles landed men on bases in the third for the High school but no one crossed the rubber. The Indians were put out in rotation. The High school went down in alphabetic succession in the fourth The Indians in this round threatened the homeplate.

tory upon the secretary of the treasury to

which can be quickly issued upon CALL The
secretary of the treasury will be required to
proceed immediately upon the law taking eff
feet to gather data concerning the new class
of securities provided in the measure. The
bonds OF every city In the country will be IN

sation for that trains mail which is deliv-
cred late.
A few fines Of this sort will do the business,
and the people will get better service.
If the postofice department hasn't gum
enough to apply the remedy, it is to be hoped
as the result of Senator Clay's resolution
congress will get back of it and inject enough
stimulus to produce the desired effect.-At-

NO EFFORT AT IMPROVEMENT.


Judging from the reports which come from
all sections Of the state, the railroads are max
ing little, if any, effort toward Improvement in
the mail service.
They are fully aware of the Inconvenience
which the public suffers as the result of con-
tinued delay of mail trains, and their failure
even to try to improve the service can be at
tributed only to indifference.
They are Indifferent because they know, I'M
der the present policy of the postofice depart
ment, they will get their money whether the
service is rendered or not; or if they should
happen to be fined, the amount would be so
small, as shown by the report Of the postofice
department to congress in response to Senator
Clay's resolution, as not materially to affect
their income
Here are two of the many complaints about
bad service, coming from widely separated
sections of the state, selected as examples of
what the people all over Georgia have to suf-
fer
The North Georgia Citizen, of Dalton, says:
'The northbound Southern train, due in
Dalton about 8 o'clock, bringing in the east
ern mail and the morning papers, is causing
great deal Of inconvenience to our citizens.
This train runs from two to five hours late
every day-one day not long since it was nine
hours late. It is the exception if this train
arrives on time. The proper authorities
should be notified, so that the government
would look into this matter Of delayed mails.
The people are entitled to better service"
This comes from The Moultrie Observer,
way down near the Florida line:
'EThe mails have been reaching Moultrie
from a half hour to two hours late for num-
Der of days. There is the usual complaint in
Moultrie by people who feel that even an
hours delay in the arrival of the morning
mail is a matter deserving kick and some
investigation. The railroads have in times
past claimed that it was rush Of business
that delayed them, but it seems that in these
lean days of traffic the trains might be able
to make their schedules. -
Complaints of this sort might be multiplied
almost indefinitely, and yet the railroads con-
tinue to turn deaf ear.
There is only one effective remedy, as The
Constitution pointed out yesterday, and that

w jail --hOpE0S0uLdJlV0 Lam
dis, chairman Of subcommittee Of the joint
congressional committee on printing, which is
engaged in making an investigation concern
ing the conduct of the Government Printing
Office, today made a statement relative to
development of what members Of the commit
tee believe to be an irregularity in office. The
statement in part follows.
Under provision Of the sundry civil ap-
preparation act for the fiscal year 1908. the
public printer was authorized to expend money
in installing in the Government Printing Of
flee a system of accounts. By reason of this
the public printer continued a contract origi-
nally entered into in September, 1906, with the
Audit System Of New York City, said contract
providing that for work as above contemplate
ed Audit System should receive $1,650
week. Attention was called to the charge that
the Audit System, in addition to this work
Of installing an accountant system in the
Government Printing Office was furnishing
supplies to the Government Printing Office in
competition with other bidders and also was
furnishing supplies ON which there was no
competition.
Il took the matter up with the public print
err, and he admitted this to be true, but stated
that the matter had not impressed him as be-
ing in any way improper.
"Under the statute, the joint committee on
printing every year receives bids and awards
contracts for paper to be used at the Govern
ment Printing Office. These bids were opened
on January. %, and yesterday the joint com
mittee met to award the contract. A short
time before the committee met It was in
formed that the Suffolk Distributing Coon
pany, which had put in its bid several times,
aggregating about $4,000, was differed by
the same gentlemen who composed the Audit
System It called meeting of the sub-com-
mittee Of the printing investigating commit
tee, and summoned Mr. Willett Raynor, who
has charge of Audit System work in the
Government Printing Office and took his tes-
timony under oath.
"This testimony was taken in executive ses-
sion and I am not at liberty to stae what it
was, further than to say that it was
of such character as to justify the
subcommittee in holding up the award of all
items in which the Suffolk Distributing Com
pany was bidder. The subcommittee will
investigate this matter thoroughly. A meet
ing has been called for tomorrow and the
president of the Suffolk Distributing Com
pany has been asked to appear. I will say
further that in view of the charges that have
been made relative to the purchase of supplies
