80 HE Resurrection, the greatest
object lesson of the ages, is the
pivot on which the whole world
is turning from darkness to
light. No matter what belief
anyone may have, his life has been at
fected In some way by the accounts
given by Matthew. Mark, Luke and
John Of the Crucifixion: the placing In
the tomb OF the body of Jesus and his
appearance after period OF seeming
death. The clear belief OF the dis
ciples, their teachings and reported
healings: even the contentious, strife
and darkness, which lasted for time.
and then the steady advance OF the
light of Christianity down the centur-
ries, has led to study and thought and
achievements which have advanced
the civilization of the world. Jesus
resurrection Is also our resurrection
as it was the resurrection OF the dis
cIpies, who. after his appearing, knew
the things which before they had Ia
ken on faith The worlds resurrec-
ton is going on. Christianity, with
the resurrection as its most vital point,
has been the motive power that has
swayed empires.
It's study has been the means OF adj
vancing the education OF the world.
Thoughts inspired by it are expressed
In art. music, literature: and thoughts
inspired by 1t have opened mems
minds to inventions that have revolu-
tionized mortal life. The worlds resur-
rection is going on! It has opened
the darkest continents TO commerce;
has been the cause Of the discovery OF
new countries; and is lifting the whole
world to a higher understanding and
appreciation OF life-from material
sense to the highest spiritual sense.
Each year with the recurrence OF
Easter men are outgrowing the grave
more and more and are understanding
more fully the great truth embodied
IN Christ's promise that whatsoever
Iiyeth and believeth in me shall never
die" Jesus had challenged the mortal
claim of death three times before he
proved conclusively the spiritual su.
premacy of life by his resurrection
from what seemed to be death. First
at the gates of the city of Main, when
the son of widow was being carried
out on bier, he said TO him: Young

automatons II he had been told that
the men who worked for him deserved
any credit for the success Of his busi-
ness he would have regarded the
statement as preposterous. His idea
was that his obligations to his en-
ployes ceased when he paid them
their wages, which were always as
small as he could make them without
bringing on trouble.
Mr.. Grimshaw noticed that Henry
Colthorpe Jagged at his work. Henry
Colthorpe had for years been a faith
full and useful employe, but that did
not give him an excuse for being slow
or for making mistakes now.
The Easter Lily had begun to recov-
er and Mary Colthorpe was regaining
her spirits and her strength when
Christmas came. On St. Valentines
day Henry Colthorpe carried two pref
ty cards to his wife and daughter. He
had gone without his lunch that day.
so that he could afford to buy the
cards, but neither Mary nor the Easter
Lily knew that.
In the evening, when the Easter Lily
had said her prayers and kissed her
mother good night, she called her IA
Their to her bedside She put her arms
around his neck and drew his face
down beside her own upon the pillow.
Dear, good papa she said Are
you glad that got well?"
"Of course / am, darling"
Would you be very sorry If you
had no little girl?''
Yes, very sorry"
But you would have mother"
II would be glad to have mother,
but could not get along without my
little girl
Why couldn't you?"
Because little girl gives one cour-
age"
Couldn't you have courage without
a little girl?"
| I'm afraid not. I'm afraid / should
not have courage or hope or kindness
! any more, If | had no little girl I'm
| afraid l should give up the struggle
What struggle?"
"a struggle that have to keep ma.
king every day. But have my little
! girl and so am able to keep on, and
everything is going to be all right Sc
go to sleep, and dream happy dreams
| and tomorrow-tomorrow-why, to
morrow everything will be lovely"
Henry Colthorpe was SO weak the
next morning that 1t was difficult for
him to get out Of bed, but he YEARLY
/ put on his clothes, ate a mouthful Of
breakfast and started away to his

At noon he was called into Thomas

RT was typhoid fever that brought
Henry Colthorpe to the end OF his
faith. So often faith depends up
on material things.
For year things had been
steadily going against Colthorpe. In
May his wife had suffered a nervous
breakdown. The doctors said at first
that a complete rest of month or two
in an institution which they recon-
mended would be sufficient to restore
her to health and strength. So she
was taken away. and Henry was left
in the little fiat with the Easter Lily.
They called her the Easter Lily be-
cause she had been born on Easter
day and because her real name was
Lillian. The Easter Lily was nine
years old.
But the doctors were mistaken, as
doctors often are. 1t was November
before Mrs. Colthorpe was well
enough to return home. Even then she
was pale, thin and SO weak that the
work in the little fiat would have been
too much for her II the Easter Lily
had not been there to help All that
they had been able to save was gone.
The doctors bills and the charges at
the institution had been heavy. Henry
Colthorpe was in debt for the first
time in his life, but he remained
hopeful
Never mind. Well soon be on our
| feet again. Everything will turn out
all right If you'll just keep from wor-
rying and get we'll as fast az you can =
Mary Colthorpe smiled YEARLY, but
| hopefully, and promised to do her
| best.
The Easter Lily, who had been wait
ing and listening, heard them and
rushed down the stairs to meet them
She threw her arms around her moth
er's neck and said:
| oh, mother I'm so glad Now ii
will not be lonesome here any more"
A week after Mary's return the Eas
ter Lily came down with scarlet fever
Henry Colthorpe began sometimes
while she was lowering between liff
and death, to wonder whether there
4 was really an All-Wise Father who
watched over people. He tried to dc
his work faithfully. but his heart was
full Of trouble and his mind was ofte-
clouded. He made mistakes that exas
perated his employer. His face be
came haggard, his shoulders dropped
and his feet grew heavy. In few
months he seemed to have become al
old man.

JOE JACKSON LEADING
 " COBB IN BATTING

Chicago. Aug. EThe pace set by Joe Jackson proved too swift for Ty Cobb and the Detroit player fell behind in the American league batting averages. Jackson pounded his percentage up to .4o8 but Cobb dropped to .396. Charles Mcdonald, Boston, continues to be the real leader in the National, with s.S71, though Earl Yinghng, Brooklyn, for 23 games, is hitting 1893.
 Pitching records to date show Wag- ner of Brooklyn, the only undefeated hur1er in the National league with two games to his credit, though he has taken part in eleven. Humphreys, Chicago, and Demaree, New York, are tied with nine wins and two defeats.
 Boehling of Washington, who suf- fered his first defeat last week, is ahead among the American league pitchers, with eleven victories and one defeat, up to the time olf closing the unofficial averages for the week.

ARRESTED SEEKS REDRESS
Connecticut Autodst Appeals to New
 HampsIlire's Governor.


 Greenwich, Conn, Aug. Not hav- ing received assurance of redress for an arrest last Thursday in Keene, N. H.. W. s. Boyden of Belle Haven, appealed to Gov. FeIker of that State. He was arrested for not moving his automobile when eating breakfast in a hotel, he explains. The arrest was made by PatroIman Gilbo. When talk en before W. H. PhiIbrick, City Mar shaI, and charged with permitting his machine to stand over two feet of a cross walk, Boyden was permitted to go. Then he was accused of being drunk by Gi1bo. The City Marshal again discharged him.
 In Greenwich, Boyden made a writ ten complaint against Patro1man GIL bo. demanding his removal from the force, and mailed it to Phi1brick s1lD- plenenting it with a telegraph night letter asking for an immediate reply to Greenwich. Boyden sent more than a dozen telegraIns to PhiIbrick the Police Commissioners, and others be- fore appealing to MT. Felker.
 The Senator's grandson says If GIL bo is not dismissed, he will carry the matter into every court of New Hamp- shire. The unexplained silence of the Keene Police Commissioners, he al- leges, is a tacit approval of the pa trolman's act If the Police Commits sion does not take appropriate action / Boyden adds, it is his intention, if pos sfble, to obtain it's removad from of- flee.

DOC SCANLON PITCHES
 HITLESS- -RUNLESS GAME

New Brunswick, N J., Aug. 4.-In the course of his perigrinations in the bushes Charles Hercules Ebbets would do well to come out here some Sunday and take a, peek at a promising pitcher named Doc Scanlan. Doc used to twtrl for the Superbas when baseball was even more in it's infancy than it is now. Yesterda afternoon, for the sec- ond time this season, the doctor pitch ed a no-hit and no-run game. The South River team was his victim, New Brunswick winning by to 0. Only one man reached first, through a base on balls that should really have been a strike -o1t.
 While scan1an Is the .'property'' of Philadelphia, having been shipped there by the trade route, Ebbets might be able to undo the dicker and send Stack back to the Phil1iee in exchange for the busher, Doc Scanian.

The peppery third baseInan hammered in four of Bridgeport's six runs and enabled the Crossmen to down Pittsdeld by to A. A triple and single were the blows that Jake struck for home and fire side. In addition to that Boultes put the enemy in the game by two base wild throw in the fourth. He also stopped a couple of hot ones, so give him a hand.
 Lefty Louis Gervais served his sin ister sIants at the Electrfcs. The southpaw was in great form except In the fourth when the visitors bunch ed three singles with a wild throw ano grabbed three runs. He allowed only seven hits. A peculiar fact about n1s pitching was that he struck out only one. Finnegan the last man up In the ninth. was the victim. Ger vais was using his crossf1re and most Of the Electr1cs popped up lies or knocked grounders.
 Deacon Bill Temple who onca b.5 trial with the Giants and spent last summer in the Pacific Coast Ieag71e was puzzle to Bridgeport except in the nrst and fifth.

 Monte Cross, manager of the Bridge port team. is understood to have been rnisfed in the matter by Bridgeport newspapermen, who thought they rec ognixed Cunningham as a private de tective.

 .-Thks game won't go on until you get out" he, said. Cunningham was sitting down near the players bench and few people noticed the incident Cunningham was surprised and pro tested, giving his name. Cross and Doherty wouldn't accept his explan- ation, however, and Cunningham was escorted out of 6he field. Cunningham was naturally considerably aroused over the etectment and suspicion that he was private detective. in view of the fact that he has been working for Sunday baseball for the past five years and was practically the prime mover in the agitation
