NO INTEREST is SHOWN
HERE IN POLIIICS.
Dull Campaign is Rather
Expected.

Americas politicians, both the real
article and the ni-brand, are antici-
pating a rather dull time this sum-
mer in state politics, while even here
at home the election of a senator and
two members of the lower house does
not reate enough interest to ripple
the surface
There S not even slate" and the
race appears to belong to any aspi-
rant who desires to uncork his thun-
der in the halls of legislation in
saving the state.
Outside of prospective governors
race of the milder sort and the sin
gle race between two candidates for
state treasurer, there is absolutely
nothing doing and little prospect of
it.
Politicians who expect to become
candidates cannot afford to allow
themselves to drop out of the public
view, but those who were talking q
few months ago of running for rail-
road commissioner, commissioner of
agriculture and prison commissioner,
as well as other ofies, have dropped
out of sight.

Quoting a municipalities business that
must be attended to every now and

REV. DAVIS AS UMPIRE
SCORED A GREAT HIT.
DeIiyers.SermOnIWith Base
ball as Text.

Rev. Thos. w. Davis, who is con-
Quoting the musical part of the evan
gelistic campaign here umpired the
game yesterday to the satisfaction of
both the fans and the players-unan-
imously, and that is going some in
Americas.
Mr.. Davis is an ardent fan and has
an annual pass to the games Of both
the National and American Leagues.
He numbers in his congregations some
of the men bearing names most wide
ly known throughout the country for
their ability in athletic affairs.
On the Sunday night before leaving
for Americas he preached to the mem
bers of one of the Philadelphia teams
and their opponents who were in the
city at the time, together with Murphy,
trainer of the American team in the
Olympic games in London, and others.
The sermon was couched in the
language of the diamond and was fay
orably quoted at length by the Phila-
delphia American.
According to Mr.. Davis, the world
instead of being a stage according to
Shakespeare is a base ball diamond.
Opportunity is in the box with Time
behind the receiving bat. Fate is tle
umpire and calls the balls and strikes,
fair and foul hits, safe and out on
thefplayers. Each man must take his
turn at the bat regardless.
First base represent physical at
tainment, according to this divine, sec
ond base, mental attainment, third bag
moral and social, with home plate the
spiritual. Very few he says draw a
free pass, and still fewer pull down
a home run.
Scoring is done mainly by working
ones way from base to base, unless
called out by His Umps.," Fate
Mr.. Davis has very speedily won his
way to the hearts of the people of
the community, as well by his genial
good humor as by his winsome sing
ing of the choice hymns of the gospel.
