FIRST PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.

In the 18th chapter of first Samuel we read of one who sought a woman who had a fa- miliar spirit to inquire of her as to his success in the battle he was to engage in. The woman did have a spirit, but she failed to call SauPs name until the prophet of God appeared unto her. And SAMUEL, and not the woman with the familiar spirit, told Saul his fate and his know ledge was from God and not an evil spirit.
 In lst Chron. 10:l3-14 we get more light on this subject. Saul died for his trangression which he committed against the Lord, and also for asking counsel of one that had familiar spirit. to inquire of it. and enquired not of the Lord.
 Gods message to His people today is: Remember them that have familiar spirits. neither seek after wizards. to be defiled by them, l am the Lord your God" Lev. 19:31.
 When they shall say unto you, Seek unto them that have fa- miliar spirits. and unto wizards that peep and that mutter. should not a people seek unto their God?" Isa. 8:l9-20.
 The soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits. and after wizards, to go whoring after them, will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off froml among his D O.

DREN UNDER 14.--TARIFF BILL TO
Be REPORTED NEXT week.

Washington. d. G., June 25.-Twt
ifar-reaching amendments to the ad
ministrative provisions of the tariff
bill aroused opposition in the Demo
cratic senate caucus today. One was
that prohibiting importation of any
goods, except immediate products OF
agriculture, fisheries and forests
wholly or in part manufactured by
children under fourteen years old
That provision was declared by many
senators to be the most drastic pro-
tective measure any manufacturer
could ask for-greater as protection
against foreign competition than high
tariff rates.
The amendment to grant to the
United States court of appeals con-
current jurisdiction in customs cases
involving more than $10O with the
customs court also aroused attention.
Some Democrats thought the proposal
an entering wedge toward elimination
of the customs court.
Senator Ransdell resumed debate
against free sugar when the caucus
opened. while Senator Jones was
ready to support the schedule. Dis
cussion of both wool and sugar sched-
ules was to end at p. m. when a vote
was to be taken. With those ques-
tions settled, administration leaders
expect the bill to be reported to the
enate early next week.
House Caucus.
In addition to the budget plan the
caucus took UP the question of con-
,inuing the commerce court. Repre-
sentative Brousard, Of. Louisiana, Of
'ered a resolution for at least the
temporary continuance of the court
md led a fight for it.

Free Sugar Approved.

Free sugar in 1916, as approved by
President Wilson, was accepted by
the senate caucus late today. Senator
Shafroth's amendment for a duty oil
half cent a pound, Senator Thorn
tens amendment to continue the I'm
derwood rates, and all others. were
voted down.
Ten Democrats voted for the Shat
roth amendment 10 make sugar duti.
able at one half cent per pound in,
stead of free at the end of three years.
Only two. Senators Thornton and
Ransdell, of Louisiana, voted for the
Thornton amendment which would
have left the existing duty on sugar
unchanged.
After disposing of the sugar scbed-
ule the caucus retained by greater
majority the provision for free raw
wool. 49,.
These two schedules were the only
points of serious party dispute in the
tariff bill among senators.
Senator Walsh's amendment to
make wool dutiable at Is per cent ad
valorem received only seven votes.

ators to support the bill as approved
