POSING AS TRAMP
FINDS BROTHER
Is Recognized When About to be At.
tackled For Supposed Impsrtinenee.

Baltimore, Nd, Jan. 1S.-Mrs. Walter
G. Diven, Of Arlington, went to her
door today in response to a knock. 4
man there asked for food, and she
supplied him. When the tramp in
sisted on being allowed into the kitchen
to eat, Mrs. Diven called her husband,
The husband, though 70 years old,
rushed toward the tramp, but, noticing
a peculiar mark on the latter's cheek,
stopped short. stared, and the two old
men were soon in each others arms.
The tramp was his brother. Howard.
Forty years had gone by since their
last meeting. Howard served the Con-
federate cause as a spy. Soon after
Lees surrender he inherited money
and began travelling about the country.
Recently he has managed cattle ranch
in Texas.
This is a tremendous surprise"
was the comment of Walter Diven.
Eve have done nothing today but talk
about old times when we were boys
together at the old hdIne in New Free
dom, Pa. and Of our father, who used
to be a horse trader. ] knew Howard
was alive, because he kept writing to
me-"

years younger than Walter. IT thought

TODAY is OF THE
EAR TICKLING VARIETY

Editor Pensacola journal.
God says: Preach the word, for
the time will come when they viii not
endure sound doctrine; but after their
own lusts, shall they heap to them
selves teachers, having itching ears,
and they shall turn away their ears
from the truth, and shall be turned
unto fables, End Tim 4.2-4
Wen that time is here. Most Of the
preaching Of today is of this ear tick
hnS variety, and one of its most ma
lgnant forms is the try gospel.
Jesus never told anyone to try to
follow him. nor to try and "love God
with all their heart, soul and mind, and
their neighbor as themselves"
What If he had told Lazarus to try
to come out of the grave? Lazarus
would have been there yet, for he had
no power to move until Jesus spoke
the word that gave him life.
suppose he had told Saul to try
and stop killing his people, to preach
the best he could to Jew and Gentle,
telling them to do the best they knew
and God would accept it? Could he
have used him in giving us the doc
trine OF his church, the church without
spot or wrinkle?
In contrast to popular teaching, read
the record of "the woman taken in
adultery" Jno. SSH, and see how
powerfully and simply He speaks to her
"go and sin no more"
People are powerless today, because
they do not hear His word. Most teach
ers are "heady, highminded, lovers of
pleasures more than lovers of God;
having form of godliness Crying to
be good or doing the best they CAM
but denying the power thereof" Tim.
3:4-5.
Let US carefully read the word, be-
lieving 1t is possible for us to do what
he tells us to do, and work out your
own salvation with fear and trembling,
for it is God which worketh in you
both to will and to do of his good
pleasure" Phil. 2:12-13.
For the grace Of God that bringeth
salvation hath appeared to all men,
teaching us that denying ungodliness
and worldly lusts, we should live sob
erly, righteously, and godly (not try to)
in this present world; looking for that
blessed hope, and the glorious appear
ing Of the great God and our Saviour
Jesus Christ; who gave himself for
US, that he might redeem us from all
iniquity, and purify unto himself a
peculiar people, jealous of good works.
Titus. 2:11-14.

Young Men
in the Cabinet.

Because an adage is old and time
worn, not to say shelf worn. does not
indicate it to be true. We have all
heard 1t said: "old men for counsel.
young men for war" Perhaps this is
only partly true, but at any rate this
is an age OF young men.
1t seems to be understood that
President-eleet Wilson has decided to
have a cabinet of young men. This is
wise, provided the word young" does
not apply to years. alone. What is
meant by this is. with a cabinet com
posed of men who have not dabbled in
politics long enough to have become
hack politicians, perhaps better re-
suits may be obtained.
1t was noticeable that in Gov. VII
sons campaign, both before and after
the nom giating convention, the execu-
tive work was done by comparatively
young men. who had never been mixed
up in party politics to any considerable
extent. The result was not a single
mistake. OF any magnitude. was made.
It would, perhaps. be unwise to
frame a cabinet of entirely mex
perienced men; at the same time pro-
fessional politicians could be avoided.
President Taft and President Roose-
velt were both young men, as age is
counted now. yet their cabinets were
not conspicuous for their youthfulness
and many of them were old time poli-
faians and some Of these older ones

Serving Two
Masters.

The law prohibits any member of
congress from appearing as an attor-
ney before any Of the government de-
partments. Sometimes this statute is
enforced; sometimes 1t is not, but its
sound policy is obvious. It would be
easy for senator or a representative
to confuse his personal interest with
the. public interest.
Senator Borah. of Idaho, has an
nounced that so long as he is in the
employ of the government, he will not
appear for a private client. He has
sought to procure the enactment of a
law by congress following the standard
of conduct he has set forth. So far
he has failed. The members who
voted against the senator's measure no
doubt had satisfactory reasons.
Senator Kern. Of Indiana, appeared
Is counsel for the dynamiters, tried at
Indianapolis, and has been more or
less severely criticized for so doing.
We do not believe that the Indiana
sage has been guilty of any moral tur-
pitude. but it is to be regretted that
he saw fit to engage in this particular
case in which the government was on
the other side. Because Senator Kern
is leading democrat will make no
one seek to excuse him entirely.

SAYS THE JONES CHARTER
MAKES FEW CHANGES

Editor Pensa cola Journal.
Your account of the meeting in the
council chamber on Friday night, for
the proposed new city charter, under
the commission form of government,
was rather misleading and unjust to
the committee, and I would appreciate
it very much If you would publish
this letter. There was no opposition,
whatever. to the charter as drawn up
by the committee, and it was unani-
mously adopted after some minor addi-
tional and slight changes in the word
ing.
The chairman then took up the new
charter, submitted by City Attorney
]. B. Jones, and read the headlines,
which in substance, were about as
follows: This Charter Provides for the
City to be Governed by a Mayor and
Ten Aldermen to Serve Without Com
pensation, etc. At this point in the
reading the whole audience began to
make all kinds CT remarks, showing
their disapproval, and several remarked
that as the people on Dec. SOth, had
declared, By the ballot that they
wanted change to commission form
of government, and the charter sub
nitted by the city attorney was prac-
t;cally the same as we had, it ought
not to be considered at all.
Chairman Semmes then very plainly
stated "That as the meeting Eas to
consider the charter in all its phases
that this be considered ALSO" but as
it was late (after 10 p. n.y. we could
not discuss the matter at that time, as
many Of the audience were leaving,
then 1t was Mr.. Earl Thornton made
the motion that it be discussed at an
other time, which motion was carried.
The part of the charter submitted by
the city attorney, which specified that
the mayor and ten aldermen were to
serve, without compensation, reminds
me of little story with a moral as
fol; ows. "a farmer had a large and
thrifty field of sweet potatoes growing,
he also had about a dozen hogs in a
pen, but his corn had given out and
he had nothing to feed them on, so he
decided to put them in his potato
patch, so they could eat some of the
vines. However, he very soon found
his mistake, and tried to get them out.
This he found was very much more
difficult than getting them in. Moral:
1t is much cheaper to feed hogs than
to put them in your later patch. A
word to the wise is sufficient.

Office SOUGHT the Man.

The last appointment to be made by
Governor Gilchrist before retiring
from office was an important one for
Washington county-that of Hon. r.
L. Mckenzie as harbor master for the
port of st. Andrews. This is anothe-
case of the office seeking the ma l.,
as Mr.. Mckenzie had not made appH-
cation for the position. The govern
ors choice was wisely made, as the
new official is in every way efficient
and the appointment appears to meet
