The Trouble With InfideIltv.

Editor Vinita Chieftain: The trouble
with inddels is they set up finite minds
against infinite. They attempt to dis
prove the divinity of the Bible by
showing the wickedness of mankind.
That is just the reason of the necessity
of divine inspiration. The Old Testa-
ment covers the time from Adam to
Christ. The New Testament from
Christ to the end Of the world. All
revelations of God 70 man proceeding
Christ were outward ceremonies and
service. The law was given through
Moses, even the history Of his death
and burial was given by inspiration be-
fore his death, grace and truth by
Jesus Christ.
Under Christ all outward services
are reduced to two acts, baptism and
the Lords supper These represent
the great facts upon which the gospel
is founded, and are monumental Christ
died for our sins according to the scrip
lures He was buried and rose again.
The finite is challenging the infinite
whenever an attempt is made to annul
or modify these divine institutions.
The worlds nerves conquer in life,
Christ in death. The last inspired
word of God came when He said, Il am
Alpha and Omega" Rev. 22.1S.
Buddha, Confusius, Toroaster, Mo
hammed, and others have given no de-
| vine revelation. Mohammed evidently
borrowed from Moses and Christ and
perverted both. No pagan religion
ever promised life after death. Jesus
said am the resurrection and the life.
John 11.25. No event in hist ry is
better authenticated than the resurrec-
tion of Christ. Just here is where the
lunconverted man gets left. The
Christian man and woman has the wit
ness of the spirit. He and she knows
for him and herself. And all the in
fidels that ever have lived, or that now
exist, or that ever will exist, even in
Ispite of all the devils in or out of Hell
cannot disproye this evidence to them
The Old Testament scriptures have
lbeen displaced by the new. The old
lare of interest only as history. The
glories of the New Testament are SUI
lperior to any comprehension of finite
mind The teachings of Jesus Christ
are superior to any teaching before oil

Olympic, Sister
 Ship Of Titanic,
 Got Little News
Magnitude and Horror of Disaster Kept from Pas sengers Until Arrival at England

By Roy W. Howard. General News
 "On Board the Steamer Olympic Plymouth Eng, April 20-It. was not until the English papers were brought on board here, today, that the terri blc horror of the Titanic disaster was realized by the vessels company. Nc death list had been furnished here and only the most meagre details of the great tragedy had been published on board of the ill-fated Titanic's sister ship. As far as possible Captain Had dock and the officers of the Olympic minimized enroute the tragedy be- ships company.
 But when the British papers were brought on board here and the great black faced lists of the dead were read the magnitude of the disaster came home to all of us. Some of the women passengers on the Olympic were on the verge of fainting when acquaintances who had gone to the bottom with the lost leviathan.
 Money was freely offered for the re- lief funds. Mortimer L.. Schiff, the New York banker headed the list with a subscription of $500 and within a few minutes s7,500 had been raised Lady Ashburton, who was formerly dora beauty gave $100 and Madame Imone gave a similar amount.
 The first news of the tragedy came to us in the form of runors while we were at breakfast on Monday There was no confir1na tion or verifi- cation until noon when a bulletin was posted in the smoking room and in the women'S lounge. This an- nounced that the Titanic had collid- ed with an iceberg but, that all of the passengers were safe. I tried tt communicate this to land by wireless but the purser said this was impossi- ble as the wireless was being utilized to its fullest capacity to get news of the tragedy and to communicate with the Titanic which, we passen- gers later learned, was even then at the bottom of the sea.
 Later the purser offered to accept a bulletin to send to the United Press but later returned it saying he could not send it. Finally. however, he did send through one message.
 Immediately after dinner, on MOn- day night, Captain Paddock caused to be posted bulletins announcing troyed and that all of her company had gone to the bottom with the ex- ception of 675 who were then on the Carpathia.
 Efforts to send word to land by the wireless from then on proved fu- tile It was stated that the wireless was in constant use for line business There was a rumor among the stew ards that the officers of the Olympic knew that the Titanic had sunk sev- eral hours before they posted the mo- tices but withheld the information in the hope that there might be an er- TOT They were almost unable them selves to credit the dreadful news.
 The holding up of the wireless mes- sages, I believe, was due more to ex- citement than to any desire on the part of the Olympic's to establish a censorship.

calmly worked hard soothing the more nervous women who would SC into mysteries every once in a while as something or other would bring back to their memories the terrible scenes. they had witnessed with the sinking of the ship and the loss o1 their children and husbands.'
 Mrs. Dyker Is still in very ner- vous condition and is at times hys. terical. Dr. Bergman ordered her to bed shortly after her arrival. He said that aside from her nervousness and a very bad cold, she had stood the terrible experiences wonderfully and that no fears are felt for her full recovery in the course of a few days
 Since 1 o'clock in the morning when Chief of Police Loomis notified them that Mrs. Dyker was safe aboard the Carpathia, the Anderson household had kept anxious vigil awaiting her return. All morning MT. Anderson the father, Wm. Anderson, the son and a daughter-in-law sat in the sit ting room of their home where they could command a view of the road running in front of their house, await ing the sounds of the horses hoofs which would signal the return of Mrs Dyker.

Unreal suns.

The mock suns of the arctic regloub are somewhat similar to the mirages of the desert. As the long winter night of the polar region wanes, once every twenty four hours slight glow is seen at some point on the horizon Often accompanying this glow Is seen the phenomenon of the mock suns Sew eral degrees up in the heavens aa many as five of these spectral orbs have been seen at one time. Invaria- bly they are all connected in geomet- ric figure, the suns seemingly bound together with circles and arcs of light. Often when only one appears it is mis- taken for the real god of day, and na- tives rejoice at the early end of the long winter night, only to be disap- pointed as the image disappears Tho explanation of the phenomenon is giv- en by physicists as refraction and re- flection of light from the real sun be- low the horizon on the mists in tho upper atmosphere.

"This Is a Mans Game Tell My Wife I Died Thinking of Her and the Children" Said Guggen- helm.
Millionaire Assisted in Fill ing the .Lifeboats, Then Went to Upper Deck, Lighted Cigar, and Coolly Waited to Drown.

New York, April 20-'This is 8 mans game and I will play it to the finish was the word that Benjamin Guggen- helm. millionaire smelter magnate, sent to his wife from the Titanic. The message was delivered to the widow by John Johnson, steward, to whom it was given. Guggenheim, Johnson said, realized almost from the beginning that there was no chance of escaping. He sent for Johnson who he knew was an expert swimmer and for his secretary, and asked them if they should be saved, to get word to Mrs. Guggenheim.
 Tell her, Johnson the steward re- lates. "that played the game straight to the end and that no woman wae left on board this ship because Ben Guggenheim was a coward. Tell her that my last thoughts will be of her and our girls"
 Guggenheim then, according to Johnson, lit a cigar and sauntered up to the boat deck to help loading the lifeboats He afterward returned to the main deck and was engulfed with the ship.

A New Idea

An old time piano merchant said the other day, '"There are two kinds of piano houses-those that indulge Tn frequent sales and those that don't. . The sale of pianos now going oae on at Steinert's Main street store therefore suggested the question whether the Steinert Go. is changing it's business policy in that respect. They declare, however, that the house had no tn- tention of giving up it's long estab- lished ideals. They aim to plan and organize their business so it will move smoothly and quietly at all times. They don't intend ever to have enough secondhand pianos on hand to war rant a sale. Just as soon as possl- ble after a rented or exchanged piano comes into the store their workmen put 1t into first class condition. Then it's for sale and they can't sell it too quick. The public gets the benefit Of a low price just the same as if they let stock accumulate and then marked the pianos down all at once. This spring. however, their plans were up- set One of their factories couldn' t keep up with the increasing demand for it's pianos and turn out as many different styles as before. Notice was given them of the styles to be discon- tinued, and as they had a number of these pianos, they decided to sell them at once. They put what exchanged pianos they had with them and marx ed them all to sell-they advertised them to sell and they are selling them. When asked about the effect the play er-piano is having on the piano busi- ness, their representative said: More people want pianos now. Formerly those who couldn't play by hand were denied the greatest pleasure of music the pleasure that comes from actual ly taking part in the making of the music. But that is all changed now. Anyone can play who will. Conse- ouently people will not put up with a silent, that is useless piano. Fam flies that have old pianos they don't use because they can't play them are coming to us every day to arrange for an exchange for Pianola pianos. This is a great thing, too, for people who want pianos to play by hand. You would be amazed to see what fine pianos we get back in exchange. They are not worn-out, old-style instru- ments that are ready for the scrap heap. They are real pianos with good tone and good action. The public can buy better secondhand pianos now than ever before. Our sale shows this fact plainly. Pianos like some of these would never have been seen in a piano store few years ago. The player- piano is making great bargains for musical people,

''The minute we hit the water the sailors pulled away from the Titanic. but we had gone but about a hun dred feet when the ship 1urched. It seemed that it rose and sank for an instant to the heave and lunge Of the sea and then it dove into the wa. ter with all on board The sailors on our boat pulled with all their might and it took their entire strength to keep us from the swirl of the waters as they closed over the ship.
 For five or six hours we floated about. Many times the sailors on our boats would see what they took to be a ship but after shouting and pulling up to it like mad, would dis cover it to be an iceberg or an i'm. mense piece of ice. It was terrible cold.
 Most of the women were clothed in evening dress; many of them had on nightgOwns with but a shawl or cloak thrown over their shoulders Some of us were fully clothed except for an outer wrap.

 Tt must have been nearly o'clock when we were taken aboard the Carpathia. The decks there were al- ready filled with survivors and the passengers and officers of the Car pathia were working heroically car. ing for them.

Learn How Long a Minute ls.

lsarn How Long . Minute Is. !
 A railroad man recently said that few persons realize how long a minute really is. He said if the ordinary pas senger reaches . station and finds the train will go out in one minute he ts nearly frantic. He rushes madly for 1t, knocking obstrucdonists in every direction, falling over himself. losina his breath, barking his shins and dam aging the scenery generally, to fall up the steps and gasp unpleasautly for the next half hour. If, on the other hand. a railroad man wishes to take train he waits until half a minute of the starting time, puts on his overcoat and hat leisurely, saunters across the yafds perhaps stops to give . few instruc- tions to a workman and swings him. self calmly up on to the steps in ampld time before the train begins to move. No; 1t is not only because he knowH the ropes, but because he has an accu- rate idea how much time there Is in q minute. Perhaps that explains thar clocks.-New York Tribune.
