 Phoenix, which but rarely indulges in earthquakes. at least is not habi- tually addicted to them, pleads guilty of having felt a little touch of the Winslow jar last night. The only place it was reliably reported from was the Arizona club where the shock was felt perceptibly by several gentlemen present at the time among them Governor Sloan, Colonel Me Clintock and pr. G w. Vickers. No one thought to look at the clock at the time but later it was guessed that the hour was about 9:15.
 l. The shock was so slight that it is probable that no one on the street or on the ground floor of any build ing noticed it. The Arizona club is in the Horner building which is one of the taller structures of the city. So far as memory serves the older citizens who have been seen, this is only the third shock that has been felt in Phoenix in a quarter of a century. The first one was about twenty-five years ago and occurred in the afternoon. It was a very live ly sort of an earthquake and while no walls were thrown down every body felt it and many were overcome by a feeling of nausea.
 The second shock was only five or six years ago and was but little more severe than that of last night. It is remembered distinctly in The Repub lican office for the reason that this newspaper scored a scoop but got no credit for it. A red hot city cam paign was on and the center of the political disturbance was in the sec ond ward. The earthquake occurred after midnight It was felt more plainly by those sleeping on the third floor of the Ford hotel They rushed down stairs in their night apparel and some of them were badly fright ened. Numerous citizens telephoned the facts of the quake to The Repub lican but it chanced that every mes sage came from some place in the second ward. The reporter treated the matter humorously and published it under the caption Earthquake in the Second Ward" referring to the vengeance of Deity on the political sinners of that part of town. Many readers thought the story was merely a political yarn even though the facts of the earthquake were plainly as serted, and the afternoon papers, even after verifying it by numerous citi- zens, still believed they were all com bining to job" them on a news item, and neither of the afternoon papers carried a line concerning it.

would go the world around to save
him from peril, and would bless every
hand that was stretched out to give
him help or welcome. And yet every
poor wandering, outcast, homeless
man is one whom some fond mother
called my boy.' Every lost woman,
sunken in the depths of sin, was some
body's daughter in her days Of child

son is a hungry outcast, pressed to the
very verge of crime and sin. Today
somebody's daughter is a weary, help

INTERcEssoRY PRAYER

l pray for them.-St. John, xvii, 9.
How many men and women have
been steadied and strengthened by
the knowledge that some one is pray
ing for them! Sometimes the reali-
zation comes with the shock of dis
covery. Sometimes the discoverer
is ashamed of the emotion it stirs
in him. Anglo-Saxons are proverbi-
ally afraid of emotion. They seem
rather to despise it. And microscopy
prayer is apt to seem to many people
a sentimental If not a mawkish thing
unless it is kept general, formal and
rather impersona1.
l am reminded of the captain Of an
ocean liner, who, forgetting as it would
tseem his manners, said bluntly and
publicly to woman well known as a
religious leader, while the good ship
ploughed the. Atlantic one fine day:
q don't believe in prayer. l never
pray, and l get along very WELL" The
quick-witted lady answered gently.
But, Captain, perhaps you do not un.
derstand ali that We mean by prayer
Now l think that every good wish is
kind of prayer, and 1 am sure you
are wishing always that we, your pas.
sengers, shall reach Liverpool safely.
So 1 think that you do pray for us
after ALL" The Captain became very
quite, and at length he said, "Well,
don't know that l would call that
prayer; but certain it is that do wish
with all my heart to bring you safe to
port"
We are not ashamed, nor do we
think it wholly useless to wish each
other well and to assure one another
of our good wishes Who that reads
this really despises good wishes, con.
ordinations kindly interest, sympa.
thy, even when in the nature of things
these can find no other possible ex.
preston than mere words and kindly
looks and meaning clasp of the
hand? Good wishes, good will, de.
sire for another's welfare and we'll.
being, how can these normally find
expression and nourishment better
than in microscopy prayer? What
we call a prayer is wish expressed
to One who has power and will to
further the wish. 1t is not uttered
to the empty air. 1t is laid before
God, who hears and heeds and an
swers prayer.
We too have our good wishes for

crets compared with the automobile in
the hands of driver who is having
his first taste of the power-and-speed
lust at the wheel.
On the other hand, the man who
hides heart of gold under stern

longer able to pass as confirmed
crouch after he has placed himself
under the revealing spell of the ma

mask from his face and expose the

hide behind a gruff disguise. -.

Expressing that capacity is multiplied
by the possession off an automobile.

tomobile owner who regards that week
as blank in his auto logbook when he
does not give joy ride to some old

Put yourself in position to let your
automobile bring out the best there
is in you and you will find the folks
along, the way scattering smiles Of
welcome and roses, of friendship in
your path instead of tacks and other
tire-wrecking devices. Let your ma

mot IF 1T WAS MY BOY"

The late Horace Mann, the eminent
educator, delivered an address at the
opening of reformatory institution
for boys once upon a time, and on
that occasion remarked that if only
one boy was saved from ruin it would
pay for all the cost and care and labor
Of establishing such an institution As
that. After the exercises, Mr.. Mann
was asked, Did you not color that
a little. when you said that all ex-
pense and labor would be repaid if it
only saved one boy?"
2 Not If 1t was my boy" was the sol.
emn and convincing reply.
All, there is a wonderful value about
my boy" says an Eastern paper. COM
menting on Mr.. Mann's assertion.
Other boys may be rude and rough: :
other boys may be reckless and wild:
other boys may seem to require more
pains and labor than they ever will
repay; other boys may be left to drift
uncared for to the ruin which is so
near at hand, but my boy"-it were
worth the toll of lifetime and the
lavish wealth of world to save him
