SERMON ETTE.

idolatry was the great sin Of
} the Jewish nation, and plunged
II to Its destruction. The first
two commandments Of the de.
, dialogue read: "Thou. shalt have
no other Gods before me.
} "Thou shalt not make unto
thee any craven image, or any
likeness Of anything that is in
heaven above, or that is In the
: earth beneath, or that Is In the
water under the earth: thou
shalt not bow down thyself to
them nor serve them: for I the
: Lord thy God am a jealous God,
visiting the iniquity of the faith
ers upon the children unto the
third and fourth generation of
, them that hate me; and showing
: mercy unto thousands Of them
that love me, and keep my COM
"nAacdhents."
The PsaImist says: "Con-
, founded be ali they that serve
: craven images, that boast them
selves of idols"
Paul, realizing that idoIatry Is
a heart condition rather than an
external expression and is prev.
; aIent in degree If not in kind
to-day as In the ancient days,
; writes this warming:
Neither be ye idoIators, as
were some Of them; as ii is writ
ten. The people sat down to eat
, and drink, and rose up to play.
> neither let us commit fornica-
ton, as some Of them committed,
and fell in one day three and
twenty thousand. Neither let
, US tempt the Lord, as some OF
> them tempted and persisted by
the serpents. Neither murmur
ye, as some Of them murmured,
and persisted by the destroyer.
, Now these things happened un-
, to them by way of example; and
they were written for our adj
monition, upon whom the ends
} Of the ages are come. Where
: fore let him that thinketh he
standeth take heed lest he fall.
Wherefore my beloved, flee from
idoIatry."
This definition Of IdoIatry by
: Paul: "For this ye know of a
surety, that no fornicator, nor
. unclean person, nor covetous
man which is an idolator hath
any inheritance in the kingdom
; Of heaven"
The closing admonition In the
! first letter Of the Apostle John
is: Little children, keep your.
selves from idols"

is 1T A MENACE?
Does the Christmas Tree Demand
Threaten Our Forests?

Washington, Dec. 12.-Does the
Yuletide with it's demand for Christ
mas trees prove a menace to the Amer
lean forest? Does it tend to denuda-
ton of the timber lands?
"These are the questions asked OF
the United States forestry service by
those interested in the conservation of
national resources. The subject has
received the serious consideration of
the forestry bureau and the reply has
been sent out that there need be no
danger of destruction if the cutting OF
young evergreens for Christmas trees
is done with discrimination. In young
pine forests it is stated that the thin
ming out process can do no harm, but
where trees are slashed in reckless
manner the results are detrimental. Il
have thought good deal about the
Christmas tree matter" said the chief
forester" and have finally reached this
conclusion.
Trees are for use. There is no other
use to which these trees could be put
which would contribute so much to the
happiness and good of mankind as their
use for the children and family on
Christmas day. AS far as endangering
the future life of our forests is con-
cerned the effect is small compared
with the destruction caused by forest
fires and wasteful numbering"

Savannah. Ca. Dec. I0.-Victims of
a revolving crime, Mrs, Eliza. Gribhle,
aged 70 years, aud her daughter, Mrs.
Carrie Ohlander, were found dead in
their homes, in Perryn1street, West.
here today, ,whileta third woman, Mrs.
Maggie Hunter, aged S2.infound Just
inside the front door OF the mousse, is
dying at the Savannah hospital. E
Physicians say that Mrs. Ohlander
was the victim of criminal assault
before she was killed. The alleged muir
derer Is said to be a Negro and re-
ward of $1,000 has been offered for his
capture.
One hundred and fifty Negro men,
caught in the meshes of the police drag
net through Yamacraw, a Negro sec
ton Of the city, are prisoners in the
police station, the theory OF the police
being that a Negro man having plan
ned an assault upon Mrs. Ohlander
was compelled to commit the other
crimes to escape. Other arrests will be
made until every Negro in the city
who in any way resembles the de-
scription of a Negro, who the last
three days has been seen frequently
about the premises of the house of the
murdered woman, is a prisoner.
The police believe that this Negro.

finished his terrible work by beating
in her skull with the implement.
, Mrs. Gribble was evidently attacked
from behind as she sat in an easy
chair reading. On the floor beside her
body were found the newspaper she
was reading and her spectacles. One
or possibly two blows We're dealt her.
Her gray head, blood-matted, shows
the imprint of the blunt side of the
axe head.
1t is probable that Mrs. Hunter was
the first to be struck down; that she
met the murderer at the door as he
entered and was struck before she
could escape. Then the murderer
stealthily approached aged Mrs. Crib
BILE and killed her.
1t is believed that Mrs. Ohlander was
attacked as she left her room to enter
the hallway and was assaulted and
killed. Mrs. Hunters skull was crush>
ed in and her death is matter Of but
a few hours.
Bloodhounds have been at work to
take the trail from the woodshed
where the axe was found by the MUIR
derer, but as the house is almost in
the heart of the city and the murders
were probablyecommitted several hours
before the discovery of the bodies, the
dogs will be Of little use.

HEARD MOTOR ALOFT.
Fire Island Life Saver Says Aeroplane
Passed Over Station.

New York, Dec. 12.-William Leach,
one of the surfmen of the Fire Island
life saving station, believes he heard
an aeroplane pass high above him
while he was doing patrol duty at lis
o'clock tonight. First he heard buzz
ing high up in the air and whatever
made it, he says, passed directly over
his head but at a height beyond his
ability to estimate. The noise he heard
resembled the rattle and hum of a high
speed motor, running wide open.
All efforts to convince Leach that he
may have mistaken a flock of geese
for an acroplane only make him laugh
He says he has heard too many geese
pass over at night to confuse the
sound of their flight with the exhaust
of gasoline motor.
Whatever made the noise seemed to
be pointing across the lower harbor
for the New Jersey shore. Leach adj
mits that, owing to the thick weather
his eyes could not confirm lis ears.

BROADER LAWS NEEDED
To Fight White Slave Traffie-Nat'on
alization Of Corporate Life.

Washington, Dec. 12-The report OF
Secretary Nagel of the department OF
commerce and labor, made pubic TO-
day, contains two very important rec
concentrations. The first is that the bu
reau Of corporations be developed and
expanded into an agency to perform
for the whole country what it has been
doing in specific instances. Secretary
Nagers recommendations IN that re-
spect suggest an agency to which the
MANAGEMENT and condition OF all inter-
state corporations must be reported.
The need of properly safeguarding
business secrets is recognized and
would be provided for. The secretary
draws the comparison that the COM
mercial and financial life Of the nation
has become nationalized and suggests
that it is now in order to Nationalist
it's corporate life. sS
Another important recommendation
made by Secretary Nagel in his re-
port is that there be broader and more
efficient laws to stamp out the white
slave traffic. While the present stat
utes prohibit the Importation of women
for immoral purposes, there is no law
against transporting them from one
state to another within the borders or
the country The secretary says 1t
must be realized that the white slave
trade is an organized business and
that stricter laws are needed to enable
the federal authorities to fight 1t sue
cessfully.
Reviewing the work of its 16 differ
ent divisions and bureaus. the report
tells of the ramifications of it's work
and tells the history of year Of pro-
gress in all directions.

Tariff Favors Help Philippines and
Hurts No One Else.

Washington, Dec. 12.--EXtensicn of
American citizenship to Porto Ricans
for those who desire it and without
forcing it upon those who do not, is
recommended for Porto Rico by ten.
Clarence Il. Edwards, chief of the bu-
reau of insular affairs, in his annual
report to the secretary of war; made
public today. Whether this be done
by an act comforting in itself United
States citizenship or the whole body Of
citizens of Porto Rico, or by an act
enabling them by the performance in
dividually Of some simple preliminary
act to become American citizens IS for
Congress to determine, says General
Edwards. a.
In speaking of the recent tariff leg
islation by Congress for the beneht
of the Philippine islands, Gen.. Ed
wards says the net results so far has
been to increase the price paid to the
grower for his leaf tobacco from III
per cent. for the poorer grade to As
per cent for the best grades grown.
The price received by the producer of
sugar has increased by Is per cent.
He says that up to date importations
into the United States of Philippine
cigars since the passage of the tariff
act has been at the rate of about U.s.
000, 900 a year, or one-half the limit for
free admission.

Edwards, may well be judged by the
fact that these cigars may be found

pines is concerned Gen. Edwards says
that one-half the regular number of
troops now in the islands are suffi-
cient guarantee against any possible
