Murray is feat seldom attempted

distance.
Danny Murphy will be Mack's first
string sub, while McGraw has Cooper

model. Cooper and Thorpe have not
been played enough to show their

Summing up, the Macks should

Murray has the best arm, but those
Macks play ground hits with the ease
and cleverness of infielders and are
liable to nip the Giants if they at
tempt to run wild.
Yesterdays game between the Sox

three hits off Cicotte, and the Sox
got three from Falkenberg in seven
innings and none from Gregg in one.

Jack Fourier is recovering his

From Rev. Strother.


Ed, REGISTER AND Readers am
again enjoying the refreshing rains
and cool mountain air.
We arrived in Des Arc June 9th;
were met at the station by many rela-
tives and friends, who gave us a hear
ty welcome.
By the kind permission of Bro. W.
Humphrey, P. E., we had the privi-
lege Of preaching in the M. E. Church
morning and evening, June 10Th, to
remarkably large audiences. God
blessed our hearts together as we
sang, BLESSED be the Tie that Binds
Our Hearts in Christian Love-" The
happy Christian faces and fervent
prayers inspired my heart. The even
ing service was a real revival; eigh-
teen penitent souls came up for pray
err. We closed the services feeling the
power and presence of the Divine
Touch of God, but we missed the faces
of some we had preached to over a
year ago. How sad to see the face of
fatherless children in the congrega-
ton and think that only a year ago
stout, hearty men sat in the church,
but that Sunday night their seats were
vacant. Some had gone to the Eter-
nal Home. So many changes in twelve
short months!
That Sunday afternoon I was called
to the cemetery to conduct the funeral
of the little boy of my dear old friend,
j. Y. McCollister. How sad to see
friends so grief-stricken, and yet it is
the road we all must travel. How
much we need Gods Son to shine in
our homes and hearts in this old WORLD
of sickness and death! But then, at
the end, when u feet are touching
the cold river of death and we are
changing worlds, it is a great hope
that Jesus will go through with US and
guarantee a safe entrance into the
Pearly White City. Iwant to help al
many folks as possible to be in the in.
Vulnerable multitude we read of il
Revelations, 7:14.
Inow have six calls for meetings
Am here settling up my business, and
getting some one on my farm. We
have decided to locate at a fine schoo
in Olivet, near Danville, Ills. My fam.
lily will be there for the school year
and I will be in the evangelistic work
The school there has offered me fine
inducements. If Des Arc had a new
school house with Prof. w. E. Mckee
in charge, and a four years. course, he
could easily have thirty pupils this
year in the high school. But as it is
we are compelled to send our children
away or move our families. Such mer
as Prof. Mckee are in great demand
1 am sure the citizens of III town will
get together on the school question

one more witness would be called.
The last witness for the state will

BAN ON ULSTER IMPORTS
ROYAL PROCLAMATION FORBIDS
SHIPPING ARMS TO PROVINCE.
The Premier, However, Is conciiatory
and Extends Olive Branch to
RebeIlious Citizens.

London, Dec. S.-The British cabi-
net, by royal proclamation prohibit
ing the importation of arms and am
munition into Ireland, has grasped for
the first time the nettle of the revolu-
tion in Ulster, which it has hitherto
ignored, although the followers of Sir
Edward Carson for months have been
advertising their military prepara.
tions in every possible way and dar-
ing interference.
Almost at the time of publication of
the proclamation Premier Asquith
made the longest step toward the
conciliation of the Ulsterites that the
government has taken by announcing
his acceptance of the principle for 2
basis of agreement which Sir Edward
Carson suggested in his last speech.
These principles are:
l. That the settlement must not be
humiliating or degrading to Ulster.
2 listers treatment must not be
different or exceptional from that
meted out to the other parts of the
United Kingdom.
3. Ulster must retain full protec-
tion of the imperial parliament
A. The home rule bill must not be
such as to lead to ultimate separation
of Ulster from Great Britain.
Thus the government extends to the
signers of the Ulster covenant the
olive branch.
The proclamation which King
George signed at a meeting of the
privy council was milder than rumors
had anticipated it would be. Instead
of reviewing the Irish crimes act,
which prohibited the carrying of arms
and gave drastic power of search for
arms, it invoked the customs con
solidation act of 1876.
Explosives designed solely for mine
or sporting uses are exempted in the
order.
Asquith Speaks at Dinner.
Premier Asquith's pronouncement
was made in an after-dinner speech.
The premier was the guest of honor
of the Reform club at Manchester
Dealing with Carson's basis of settle
ment categorically, Premier Asquith
said he was sure Sir Edward must
agree that the statement that there
could be no settlement worthy the
name that would be humiliating or
degrading to those for whom Sir Ed
ward spoke should apply to all sec
tions of the Irish people
