High School Glass Visits College

The agricultural class of the high
school, with Principal Hennessey,
visited one of the agricultural classes
Of the college, conducted by Prof.
Thorn, Wednesday afternoon. In ad-
dition to gaining much practical
knowledge through watching the class
at work, the high school students
made good use of the apparatus for
experimental purposes and perform
would have been impossible at the
high school. Later an instructive lee
ture on the various phases of seed
selection and farm crops in general
was given by one of the professors
for the benefit of the high school
class. After an inspection of the
work done by the various high school
agricultural classes of the county,
Prof. Thorn pronounced the work of
the Pullman high school among the
best. The agricultural department
of the college takes considerable in
terest in the work done in that
branch in the different high schools
of the county, for by assisting in
making the work as nearly com
plete as possible the work done by
tho students after they enter the
college will be of a higher standard.

KOHLER CHARGES
NOT VERY STRONG

Cleveland, May 6.-The prosecution in
the trial of Chief of Police Fred Kohler
rested its case this afternoon. Nine of
the original "a charges were dropped for
lack of evidence, leaving gross immortality
and habitual drunkenness the only counts
with which the defense has to deal. The
charges which have failed were malfea-
sance and misfeasance In office and in
efficiency.
Among the first witnesses called by tho
defense were Newton d. Baker. city
solicitor, and Harry N. Hickey editor in
chief of newspaper syndicate.
Both Of these witnesses testified that
they had known the accused chief for a
number of years and had never known
him to be intoxicated on any occasion.
Mr.. hickey also testified that in his opin-
ion Chief Kohler had never shown any
inefficienoy or incompetency in the con-
duct of his Office.
The defense expects to call about 100
witnesses, among them being city OIL
cials, professional men and prominent
business men. Most of thef testimony to
be offered will be In rebuttaf of the
charge Of inebriety

Wellborn, president OF tile First Ma
tional bank. came out In strong
interview this afternoon indorsing the
administrat ton of Mayor j. L. Wlkle'
and when seen afterward and asked
what the Endorsement meant Mayor
Wikle replied:
ut means that I am in the hands
of my friends"
"And does that mean that you. are
again in the race" he was asked fur
Their
"I suppose that you might say that
it does"
This gives the city political situa-
ton definite shape. However Mayor
WikIe is, up to the present, the only
man in the running. His probable OPP
ponent will be Capt. w. J." Mccaa'
now president of the city council, but
CAPTAIN McCaa could not be found this
afternoon to ascertain exactly wheth-
er or not he will be in the. race j.
Henry Edmendson, president pro tenn
of the council. has also been men
toned as a probable candidate, but IL
Is believed that he will content NM
self with the race for president OF
the council, waiting until later to make
the race for mayor OF the city.
In his card of Endorsement Mr.. Well
born cites that 1t will be nothing but
fair under democratic precedent to
give Mayor WikIe another term in Of
fee. He cites the fact that the past
term of the mayor incumbent has OF
a necessity been conservative, the city
administration finding Itself forced to
cope with several unusually difficult
problems. All of these. however. have
been met in business-like way, Mr.
Wellborn declares, and he assures the
voters that If they Will put Mayor
Wilxle in office for another term his ad-
ministration will be marked by more
progressiveness as he is now more
in a position to do things than he
was when he came into office.
Mayor wikle is president of the
Wikle Drug company and large real
estate owner. He was for several years
president of the Admission chamber Of
commerce and has been otherwise hon :
ored by the people of the city. He is

At a meeting of the railroad commits

the Atlantic Coast Line to rebuild its
depot at Ozark, on the uptown site of
the old one, burned some time ago. The
site is reached by a spur track nearly a
mile long, and the road desired to build
on the main line, thus saving backing in

not take to that view.
The rates on brick, about which there
has been some talk, were agreed on out

or will that the sense of personality
comes into play, and we become re-
sponsible for our acts God has made
man responsible through the exercise of
his will, through his sowing; whatsoever
a man soweth, that shall he also reap"
Mans Marvellous Ability
Man has that marvellous ability to
will and he cannot rid himself of that re-
sponsibiity, and having begun his exist
ence he must continue 1t, for man is i'm
mortal. l know that this is often denied
today, and many would like to make man
only mortal, but God has made him I'M
mortal. If you tried to convince people
that you were not responsible and you
could not be responsible il you were not
free: they. would put you In a luniatic
asylum.
God said, through the apostle, You
can choose whatsoever seed you sow:
II you so wevil seed you will reap cor
ruption. and If you sow good seed you
will reap life everlasting This is man s
circle of freedom, and SO far as this text
goes that is his only freedom. You can,
If you wish. throw away all of your vir-
tues. but when God comes and says.
Choose this day whatsoever seed you
would SOW and you make your choice
then your freedom ends. This is all the
freedom that God gives us. He does not
even leave us in doubt as to what will be
the result of the sowing. He plainly
shows that II you sow the seed of evil
you will reap the fruits of evil.
Mans Responsibility
The bishop plainly and forcibly showed
that man cannot make a seed, but he is
responsible for the seed that he selects
for sowing. He also showed that when a
man would not select that the indecision
was of itself an act of selection. This
he illustrated by the parable of the tall
ents. He also showed that many people
believed that they could live any kind
of life that they choose, and just as they
repented everything would be all right;
but he said that it was the sowing that
would count This belief, he said, was
one of the delusions Of the devil which
has dragged many poor soul down to
hell. He said that calling thing by an
other name could not and would not
change the results thereof. and that man
need not try to fool himself as to the
moral results of his acts for 'whatso-
ever a man soweth that shall he also
reap.
The sermon was considered by all that
heard it one of the most mastery dis
courses ever delivered here.
Last night at S:15 o'clock Rev. J. e.
Northcut Of Montgomery preached a SER
mon before the Young Mems Chris ian
association.
