Speaking about Joe Tinker, Secre- tary John B Foster of the Giants stated that the famous shortst D had been offered to the Giants some time ago by August Hermann, and he was informed that the Giants did not want him. Foster says that Tinker would not be of much value to the Giants, so they turned him down flat. He believed, however that he would strengthen the Br ok lyn team

-ENER WON'T CHANGE UMPIREs

President Tener says: Bright >aseball men tell me that the umpires T the National league are the best T the business. Such men as Fred 1'arke. Miller Higgins and George Stallings have told me that the off rials in the league last year were good and so long as the men actively engaged in the game on the field qre satisfied, that is some assurance that the judge of play is nearly competent. Of course, I shall aim to become better acquainted with the umpires myself and endeav'r to pair them of' in a manner to render the "0ost good"
 So according to this sentiment. he umpire question in the National 'eague is settled for next season. The rmpires now on the staff are Bill

er gave a critical, searching analysis
of the two characters, and drew from
them some very helpful lessons.
In Analysing the characters of Cain
and Abel, DR.. Molloy said that the
line was very clear and accurately
drawn. The record of the Bible was
distinct, while much could be drawn
by inference. Cain came to make
sacrifice to the Lord, bringing the
products of his crops, his grain and
his fruits. He offered them with all
the confidence of a self-satistied man.

brought lamb as was demanded by
the Lord, and meekly and humbly,
with full consciousness of his short
comings, offered it to Him in an ac-

Just the opposite, against the Jewish
explicit directions that lamb was
the proper method Of sacrifice. He
offered what he pleased, with com
plete disregard of the law upon the
matter. He was self-willed, self
opinionated, hasty to anger, full OF
wrath. He had no restraint upon his
passions or feelings, and when he
saw that his brothers offering was
more acceptable, he promptly slew
him, the evidence tending to show
that he took his life by hanging OF
choking him. This deed, stated the
speaker, marked the first great divid

time that human blood was shed by
a brothers hand. So God put His
curse upon Cain, and made him an
outcast and wanderer upon the face
of the earth.
Dr. Molloy stated that he believed
that capital punishment was authoriz-
ed by the Bible. He quoted in sub
sanitation of his position the verse,
"Whosoverer sheddeth mans blood,
by mans hand shall his blood be
shed" He believed that it would be
criminal almost to remove this pre-
ventive measure from the statute
books. Wherever it was most rigid
ly enforced, there was there the most
supreme respect for the law and fear
of it's workings. In England, there
are only one-tenth as many murders
as in the United States, where JUS
tice is not so swift nor sure, and
where the murderer runs an equal
chance of escaping the hangman'
gallows. He believed that more
sure administration of this law would
do wonders to stop this traffic in hui
man blood.
However, he believed that the rea
meaning of the text was still deeper
He gave the instance of the Pennsyl
vania governor who went down to the
cell of a prisoner condemned to deatf
and with arms around him, begged
him to reform and become Chris

He reaches out even to the murderer

and become purified and cleansed b!

So far, so deep, so wide is the expan
sive love of the Almighty that knows
no limit, bounded neither by the nortl
nor the south pole, and encircling tn
world at it's widest point.

GOOD ROADS IN WISCONSIN.

The Counties Take Advantage Of
State Aid.
All the counties of Wisconsin are
taking advantage of state aid for the
Improvement of their roads this year
The increasing popularity Of this plan
is described by John A. Hazelwood.
chairman of the state highway conf
mission. as follows:
wisconsin embarked upon Il policy
of county aid for highway improve
ment of the principal roads in the
counties of the state by an enactment
Of the legislature in 1907. and under
the policy of county aid twenty c0un
ties in the state accomplished a great
deal of good prior to 1912.
"In 1911 the Wisconsin legislature
decided upen the policy of state aid in
addition to the county aid provided for
in 1907 and made an appropriation OF
S350.0OO annually to carry the under
taking along. During the year 1912
sixty five counties out Of seyenty-one
asked and received county and state
ttVl. lAtSL SAA -CAsshS ouS ~ 49,
seventy-one have received county and
state aid for highway betterment.
'sThe legislature of 1918. apparently
appreciating the success and populari-
ty Of the state aid provision over that
of the county aid policy, appropriated
$1,200.G00 annually to carry along the
good roads work. In 1911, by mar.
row margin of one vote. the state ap.
preparation was made for the new poll
cy. while in 1918 every vote in both
houses of the legislature, with the ex
ception of seven, was cast for the 81.
100000 appropriation.
''Since the legislature adjourned the
three counties not engaged in good
road work prior to this time have yot
ed to come under the provisions OF til.
state aid policy. Consequently in l914
the entire state is carrying on road im
provement under the state aid policy.

cughfare Leading out of London show
ed only 3 per cent Of horse drawn We

the failure of the public authorities

use of roads in recent years is that OF
