Serenity.

"The true religious mar, amid all
the ills of time, keeps serene fore
head and entertains a peaceful heart.
This, going out and coming in amid
all the trials of the city, the agony
OF the plague, the horrors of the
thirsty tyrants, the fierce democracy
abroad, the fiercer i'll at home-the
saint, the sage Of Athens, was still
the same. Such a one can endure
hardness; can stand alone and be
content; a rock amid the waves
lonely, but not moved. Around him
the few or many may scream, calum-
Mate, blaspheme. What is all to him
but the cawing of the seabird about
that solitary, deep-rooted stone?"-

rhe crown for the Falthful,

The virtue of fidelity is not condi.
toned by great opportunities and re
sponsibilities. 1t has nothing to do
with splendor of circumstances. 1t
needs no broad arena. no crowd of
spectators. HE that is faithful in
that which is least is faithful also in
much" The humblest task is to be
done as unto God. Our gift, our tai
ent, may be insignificant, but it Is to
be used, not buried. What the world
calls success is often the shipwreck
of the soul. The dominion of Gods
world is the blessing of those who
are faithful in a very little" faith
full unto DEATH" The crown is not
for success, not for genius. not for
position, not for greatness. but for
faithfulness. Lifes work and warfare
are to test and train our fidelity.

HE HAD THEM IN A CORNER
cIergyman's Rebuke to Thoughtless
Youths at Once Neat and
Disconcerting.

A well-known clergyman was one
day in a barber's shop, when four or
five young men walked in whom he
knew by their voices, but who did
not recognize the man in the chair,
with lather all over his face. They
proceeded to spend the time by tell
ing stories and using expressions
which, to say the least, were rather
strong. When the barber pulled away
the towel the clergyman, cleanly
shaved, stood before them. So nor
plussed were they that no one tried to
take the vacant chair, and the barber
called several times: Next gentle
mani"
The clergyman smiled somewhat
grin1ly as he said:
"It isn't bit of use, John. There's
not a man here who has the effront-
cry to answer to that name"

Camas Prairie chronicle. [volume] (Cottonwood, Idaho) 1901-1917, 1911-06-16

The people of Cottonwood do
not believe and would be very
loath to believe that the action
taken by the Grangeville ball
players against Umpire Randall
last Sunday at that place ex-
presses the feelings of a large
majority of the citizens of our
county seat town. In fact the
people of the west side do not
believe that most of the Grange
vile citizens ever even thought
of such contemplate tactics, but
that a few knew of the premedi-
tation of some such action can
not be questioned. Had the
game proceeded for a few innings
it would be reasonable to suppose
that some questionable decision
had given rise to sudden anger
and resulted in the dismissal of
the umpire but the fact that the
game had not started and that
the umpire had not officiated in
previous games played by the
Grangeville team this season is
conclusive proof of itself that
the action taken had been pre-
meditated. Furthermore, the
players implicated must have
had the moral support of others
or they would not have had the
temerity to do what they did.
1t is to be deplored that Grange
vile has in her midst sports of
such poor quality. No town can
hope to be always successful in
the field of sports and if it can
not take its losses in good grace
it had better leave the field to
gamer losers and not enter the
contest. Such rowdy action
should be discouraged wherever
or whenever it occurs for it does
more to create enmity and hard
feeling between towns than all
the 'love feasts" and "get to.
gether" parties can patch up in
a year.

The W Gather man is certainly
doing everything possible to in
sure a banner crop on the prairie
this year. First, plenty Of
moisture. Next, nice warm
growing weather that fairly
makes the grain shoot into the
air. Lastly, we will hope for
perfect harvest weather and
enough of it to allow for time
sufficient in which to care for
the immense crop that we will
have to harvest. Verify, Idaho's
crops and climatic conditions are
things to conjure with. Who
wouldn't live in Idaho if they
could.

Johnson has $125,OOO in Sight.

Under contracts already signed
Johnson is assured of $125,000 from
is ring engagements alone during
the next year. With moving picture
rights and theatrical engagements he
should have no great difficulty in
doubling that. Jack says he doesn't
want to box in the United States yet
awhile. Guess not, when he can do
as well as that elsewhere.
Some of the English papers, bank
ing on Johnson's supposedly amiable
disposition, are saying that the black
will go easy with Bombadier Wells
in their coming match 1t wouldn't
be wise for any one to bet much
money on that. Johnson will put
the Englishman away Just as quickly
as he possibly can. He won't play
with him a minute and if Wells goes
five rounds it will be because John
son is unable to catch him bending.

JACK JOHNSON SIGNS UP FOR
S125,000 WORTH OF FIGHTS.

Probably Mcintosh is the only man
alive who knows how much trouble
he had in landing Johnson. He has
been camping on the trail of the
black ever since the latter landed in
England He has been with him at
all hours of the day and most of the
night. Johnson is naturally a suspi-
cious man and Mcintosh found it diff
ficult to win his confidence. AS mat
tiers stand at present the Australian
is practically the black mans mana
ger. He superintended the making of
Johnson's agreement with the English
syndicate that is bound to drop a pot
of money on the coming Johnson
Wells fight.
The champion actually received
$4,000 down, will receive the same
amount in few weeks, and the re-
naming instrument of his 100000
before he enters the ring. If for any
reason the syndicate is unable to go
on with the fight Johnson keeps the
money he has received. AS Wells is
to receive $4,000 for his end and
the expenses will eat up at least the
same amount, it is difficult to ina.
CINE the hackers going through with
it, The best opinion in this coun-
try is that the fight would not draw
10000.
