ELOQUENT SERMON
 ID TIE GRADUATES
Rev. Decker Urges Students to Measure Up to Prob

Beginning the closing exercises cf
 the Bisbee High school. Rev. E. c.
 Decker, pastor Of the NetnoGls-
 church, delivered the baccaIaureate sermon Sunday morning at the Pres tyter.an C1urch oA',he Covenant, the text of the sermon being Knowledge Is Power" A program Of especially selected music was rendered. MT. Decker said in part:
 "Unsolved problems are an iudica- ! ton of growing power. of future pos siDilities, Of exhaustive resources. ! This is why there is always hope for | the one who is working at the prob ] lem, and no hope for the one who is not. We grow to the size of the i problem or we shrivel in awe of the problem.

 to every problem. but every one can

 Life the First School.
 Life is the first school, eternity is the second. The school of life may
 be arranged in two branches. Un-

CAN AND POT
RETARD YACHT
Joke Played on "EIIida"--
Capt. Compton Wrought.

The Ellida, owned and ~captained
by j. Alfred Compton, vas and is yet
one of the best sailing sloops in
these waters. Local people who have
been following the races of the
Yacht Club series have often remark
ed that the Ellida was sailing in very
poor form this year. Beaten by the
Estella, a small catboat, in the races
Saturday afternoon, the Compton
boys decided to pull the boat up and
see what was the matter, If any.
They found 1t all right, for upon pull
ing the boat up this morning a large
tin can and a round e~arthenware YES
sci were found tied to the bottom of
the boat. These, when sailing, would
fill with water, and naturally retard-
ed the boats progress to some extent.
Some of the boys along the shore
were no doubt the ones who did the
deed, thinking it to be a good joke.
The following letter has been re-
ceived from the captain of the Ellida
in which he expresses his opinion Of
the trick:
To the Followers of the Yacht Club
races:
I, the skipper of the ship Ellida,
do hereby swear and affirm that I've
been grossly wronged, inasmuch as
some dear friend took it upon him
self to lessen the speed of my craft
by attaching thereto a tin can and
another round shaped piece of earth
enware.
Admitting this boat is slow, l
can't make any alarming assertions
as to just what l will do in the next
race, but will guarantee to move
along faster, and thereby finish some
where near first place.
If the perpetrators of this bastard
ly deed will see me in person l will
thank them very much.

Skipper of the Ellida.

SALOON MAN
IS FINED $25

Joseph Scibienski was arraigned
before Recorder Henry w. Kehoe last
night on a charge of selling liquor
on Sunday in Alexander Balinski's
place at 1923 Smith street and was
fined S25. He pleaded guilty, declar-
ing he had sold a few drinks to
people who came in his place on Sun
day, July 80. The court informed
Scibienski that it would have to fine
him S25. He was taken to the SER
geant's desk, where his pedigree was
taken and the fine was paid.
S~cibienski's request for the license
of Alexander Balinskf is before the
Board of Excise Commissioners. 1t
came up last Thursday and was laid
over to await developments In this
case. Inasmuch as the mar pleaded
guilty to Sunday selling and 1t is
plainly evident to the police and
members of the Excise Board that
he was in possession of the place be-
fore the license was actually trans
ferred, it is hardly likely that the
application will be granted.
Friends of Balinski, it is alleged,
attempted to work a clever ruse on
the police and excise commissioners
in telling them that Balinski was to
be pitied as he was dying at his
home. Both the police and excise
board members have since learned
that Balinski was enjoying an out
door clambake on the very Sunday
S~cibienskt was selling beer at the
place for which he held a license.
The police were determined to make
an example of S~cibienski. They had
numerous witnesses against him, but
they were not called, it being unnec-
