Two out-and tn. Base. Full.

TWO 0uS-Aho the 01SOS = VII.
Two out-and the bases full
Three runs to win and two to tie;
And then, amid the boding lull
Looms Jackson Of the Batting Eye:
I watch the pitcher writhe and whirl
And shoot one from his mounded pen
i see the white pill dart and curl
AS Jackson's bludgeon swings-and
then
In that one moment thru the stands
There runs-before the groans and
cheers
The taut grip Of ten thousand hands
The pulse leap of thousand years:
The one great throbbing human call
Above all science, war, or love
AS crashing bat meets speeding ball
Or speeding ball meets waiting glove.
Here ends the sorrows Of the race
All want and wretchedness and
crime:
Where care must seek another place,
Where sin must bide another time:
Here where the hearts wiped clean and
dry
The drudge soul lifted from the pit
For those who wait for the reply
A Strike out-or a Two-base Hit?

4 What !. cause other than civic i'm
provement has operated to bring
about this considerable increase in
our annual receipts?
In 1902 we issued 100000 worth
of bones for public improvements; in
1918 we have deficit of approx
mately S50,00O,0O; is not an annual
increase in our receipts of 44,331.16,
a reasonable return upon the $780,

In 1913 we expended for schools

Our expenditures may be more or
less correctly divided into general op-

Under the head of general opera

cd the items of special street work,

From these investments have come
our annually increasing receipts:

CHANDLER ON
JEWISH PERSECUTION.

Representative Chandler, of New
York, a Progressive, delivered an
Unusual speech in the House yester-
day on The subject of Jewish pcrsecu-
ton.
MIR. Chandler took for his text
the failure of Roumania TO live up
to the terms Of the treaty of Berlin
guaranteeing equal treatment of all
persons, without regard to race or
religion. He spoke for thirty minu-
ties and was given close attention.
Mr.. Chandler began by declaring
lithat persecution of the Jews was
contrary to Scriptural teachings.
"Thc last prayer of the Master on
the Cross he said, "must be made
to repeal earlier Scriptural prophecy
or decree. Father, forgive them,
for they know not what they do is
the sublimest utterance in the litera-
ture of the world. 1t is the cpitomc
Of every Christian virtue an of gil
religious truth. This proclamation
from the Cross repealed the Mosaic
law of hereditary sin, placed upon
a personal basis responsibility for
oirenses against God and man, and
served notice upon future generations
that those who know not what they
do are entitled to be spared and for
given.
"To believe thai God igrore& the
prayer Of Christ on the Cross and
that the centuries Of persecution OF
the Jews, which followed, were but
the fulfillment of prophecy md fate
is to assail the Mcssiahship Of Jesus
and to question the goodness and
mercy of Jehovah.
"Jesus knew the full meaning Of
his prayer and was serious unto
death. To believe that the Father
rejected the petition Of the Son is to
destroy the equality of the Persons
of the Trinity by investing one with
the authority and the power to re-
; view, revise ana reject the judg-
ments and petitions Of the others.
"Let no prosecutor of the Jew lay
the JUNCTION to his soul that he is JUS.
tilted by the tragedy of Golgotha, for
he who persecutes in the name Of re-
ligion is a spiritual barbarian and
intellectual savage. Let this same
lpcrsecutor not make the mistake Of
supposing that the Jews are wholly
responsible for the persecution that
has been heaped upon them"
| About twenty years ago Senator
! Zeb Vance delivered . an interesting
! lecture on the Jewish race at the OPP
era House in Alexandria, which was
listened to with close attention by
the large concourse gathered on the
Occasion. The Senator handled his
subject in mastery manner
