Calm and deliberate, the big fellow,
who has had wide experience in

from his fragrant perfecto he readily
answered.

for mayor-that is rertainty, but
will enter the field on a councilman

Mr.. Hickey has been talked of a

to be much uncertain speculation
among his friends as to whether he
would enter the field. Many were cen
fdent that he would, while the dca5t

Evangelist Hills at Baps st Church
Last Evening Preacs ed a
Very Impressive
Sermon.
GODS LOVE FOR WORLD
Greater BY Far Than That Of the
Mother For Her Boy, or
Sweetheart For
Lover.

"a Gold Mine" was the subject of
Evangelist C. E. Hills at the Baptist
church last evening. and his text was
that old familiar verse of John 1916
He said, this verse is gold mine
and every one of the words are gold
en- nuggests.
Luther called this verse, little
bible, for it contains the whole plan
of salvation in germ. 1t is the golden
gateway of salvation. Almost every
word in it flashes with the direct light
of heaven and grace.
For" wonderful in its scripture
setting and logical connections.
God" wonderful in its origin.
so Loved, wonderful in its pecu-
liar energy.
The World wonderful in its
scope and sweeps
That He Cave wonderful in its
mode of expression.
His Only Begotten Son., wonderful
in its sacrifice.
That whatsoever, wonderful in its
particularly and adaptation.
"Belieyeth', wonderful in its simple
and yet comprehensive requirements.
In Him., wonderful in being Christ
centered.
Should Not Perish, wonderful in
its protective blessings.
But Have Everlasting Life" Won
derful in its abiding and Astounding
satisfactions
God so loved the world, why He
should do it l do not know, but He
has and does. His love is great
enough to take in the entire world
What Mr.. Hills do you mean to say
that God loves everybody? The gam
blers, the saloon keepers, and all vile
and wicked people? Yes God loves
them, and would see them all saved.
We known what the love of mo
Their, father, sweetheart, husband, OF
wife is don't we? A mother will fol
low her hayward boy even to the
scaffold and will say at last, yes ne
has been bad boy perhaps. he has led
wicked life, but oh he is my boy
Their love never leaves him. But
Gods love for us is a thousand times
1 greater than even the mothers love
That He gave His only begotter
Son., why not somebody else? There
was not an angel in heaven good
enough to come down to earth and die
! for the sins of the world God gave
the very best He had, His only be
gotten Son. Can you look upon the
spotless life and character of Jesus
and His death upon the cross for you
and you not love Him. Does moi
His love call forth your love?

Sporting News

The matter of giving fans who at
tend baseball In the Central Associa-
ton during the coming season the adj
vantage of scores by inning from 9th:
er parks has been touched on quite
generally throughout the circuit. The
Herald of Quincy has this to saw:
The matter of connecting the differ
ent ball parks of the Central Associa-
ton by wire is not progressing very
last and at the present time no one
can tell what the solution will be. The
cost will be about s1,0OO-in itself a
very Insignificant sum-and from the
standpoint of the Western Union
Telegraph Co., very poor exchange
for the loss of business sustained
through such an innovation. The
Western Union Telegraph company
does quite big business every year
selling the scores to business houses
and saloons, the cost of the service be.
ing small, but amounting to consider.
able when the large number of sub
scribers are considered. Another
consideration that enters the propo-
sition is that of operators. In Ke.
vance, Monmouth and Ottumwa, the
force of operators in the Western
Union offices is too limited to per-
NIT sending a man to the park and
II an extra man is to be hired. the
cost of maintaining the service would
be far too expensive to be entertain
ed by the league or the individual as
sociations in these three towns How
ever, there is way out of all this
and it is thought probable that event
ually the telegraph company and the
league will get together on it. BY
telephoning the results, inning by
inning, to the ball parks. no extra
man would be necessary and the ser.
vice would be just as satisfactory as
| II special wire were strung t, the
park. There would not have to be a
loss of more than two minutes In
transmitting each score and as the
different scores would be very likely
to be posted between innings, the de
lay of minute or two caused by the
relay would not be notlced at all py
the fans, and when it comes right
down to the point, the service is the
main thing. The fans are entitled to
all the league can give them and with
a telegraph-telephone arrangement
the cost would be so small that il
would not be felt by the league
Stringing wires and keeping a special
operator at the park is a risky propo
sition in minor league. In the
Three-Eye, the business resulting from
the enterprise of the telegraph com
pany. has dropped to practically moth
] ing in recent years and the service is
conducted at loss. BY using the
telephone, no outlay of money would
be necessary.
