Rev. R. A. Highsmith. former pas. tor of the Christian church here, ar rived yesterday morning and began his meeting last night at the Chris. tian church. Quite a number of his former friends were present last night to greet him and renew the old 'acquaintances.
 Bro. Highsmith complimented the city upon it's splendid growth during the past year, saying that everything looked new and strange on his first arrival but all denoted a spirit of pro gress characteristic of Prescott.
 The subject of his sermon last night was "A Great Revival" In order to have such revival he said it was necessary that the members be pray erful, harmonious, faithful and con secrated. The burden of his talk was a demand for an increased spiritual ity among Gods people.

A Princes Chilly plp.

Prince Henry of Prussia Is an ar
dent sailor. says Pearson's Weekly, but
he is known among the bluejackets as
a great martinez. The following story
is typical of his methods, and shows
that although he expects those under
his command to put up with all kinds
of hardships, he is by no means above
''roughing it" himself.
One day. when he was on board
warship in the North sea, he suddenly
gave the order, "All hands to batheg"
1t was a bitterly cold day and the
water was like ice. The order was
so evidently distasteful that one Of
the officers ventured to make a mild
protest to the. prince. Without an
swering him a single word, Prince
Henry. although fully clothed, sprang
over the vessels side. swan out a good
distance In the icy water and returned
to the deck dripping from head to foot
After that the sailors took their bath
without demur.

"Hanq on Tight

When smoking car with thirty-fve
passengers jumped the track railroad
engineer in the car, of duty, yelled to
the passengers to chang on tight" and
while the car turned over no one was
hurt.
'sHang on tight" is good advice In
most upsets. The man who hangs on
tight to himself when his temper Is
upset will get through without hurt
ing either himself or others. The man
who "hangs on tight to his earnings
ends with competence. The man who
"hangs on tight" to his place when
business upsets come generally holds
down his job. The man who "hangs
on tight when encouragement or even
disaster upsets others is a man to be
hopeful about, because he Will keep
right side up whatever else turns over.

Tax The Rlch For Preparedness
Funds.

Congressman Jim McClintic, of
Oklahoma, has given his views on
the raising of funds if the people of
this country are to be compelled to
support a big army and navy.
Congressman McClintic says:
81 have given careful and critical
consideration to the proposition
concerning increased military
appropriations and the means to
which Congress will resort to meet
these increased expenditures, and
have definitely made up my mind
that if Congress makes these
tremendous increases for armament,
I shall not vote for a stamp tax

when they must be depended on in
time of war for the protection OF
our liberty. However, | shall
insist that the Ways and Means
Committee report bill to increase
the income tax by sur tax, or any
other way that is proper. | also
favor an inheritance tax.
ssIn addition, | would be glad to
see a tax placed upon the traffic in
war materials manufactured by the

President Wilson has consented
formally to the, use of his name as
a Presidential candidate in the
coming campaign. At the same
time he declared he was "entirely
unwilling to enter into any contest"
for denomination.
The Presidents attitude, in line
with the plans of his political
associates, is expected to bring into
the open the campaign being made
in his favor throughout the coun-
try.
Mr.. Wilson's declaration was
made in q letter to the Ohio Secre
tary of State, who had written that
candidates for delegates from that
State to the national conventions
must signify their choices for Presi

Presidential candidates could be
named in that connection without

a Pretty Hot Story.

Chabert, the fire king, who was
popular favorite In London over eighty
years ago, claimed to be able to swal-
low arsenic and other poisons with Inn
punity. Visitors to bis entertainment
were requested to come provided with
phosphorus, arsenic and oxalic acid,
which he proceeded to consume before
their eyes, taking an antidote after
ward which was supposed to neutralize
their effects. Then. to show that he
was as impervious to heat as to poison,
he would take raw leg Of lamb into
an oven heated to 220 degrees and re-
main inside until the joint was cooked,
when it was carved and handed around
to the audience. The performance
concluded by Chabert rubbing red
hot shovel on his head and face and
allowing any one who wished to drop
molten sealing wax on his tongue and

SYRIAN SAND STORMS.
Experience of Missionary In Wres-
tling With Whiriwind.

tling With q Whirlwind.
One of the remarkable features Of
the climate and atmosphere Of Syria
is the prevalence of whirlwinds and
waterspouts, both on land and over
the sea. They are most prevalent in
the deep trough Of the Jordan valley
and also In Coela-Syria, where the
Lebanon and anti-Lebanon form an
other trough for the winds. They
sometimes do an immense amount Of
damage and often at most unexpected
seasons.
As a touring missionary in northern
Syria often met the whirlwinds.
They appear In the shape Of a column
of dust perhaps two to five feet In
diameter, rising straight In the air for
several hundred feet, opening like a
large funnel at the top. The lower end
touches the ground and swings over
the surface, picking up dust and peb-
bles in its path. The chaff and even
grain on the thrashing floors are suck
ed up and disappear. Small fish are
sometimes drawn up when the sway

Express and Railroad Lobby Still
Grabbing.


The charge that ''the greatest
lobby ever known to the American
peoples is seeking to prevent the
substitution of the space for the
weight payment system in the
railway postal service was made in
the house recently by Chairman
Moon, Of the post Office committee.
He declared the real object is to
throttle the parcel post service in
the interest of express companies,
whose profits are shared equally by
the companies and the railroads.
The chairman asserted that a
combination of surety companies
had so manipulated their bonding
of government employees as to cause
the government to lose "hundreds
of thousands of dollars"
Mr.. Moon told the house that,
under the weight system, the rail
roads are receiving 100000, 900
annually for carrying mails, and
that s64, 100000 would be allowed
them by the proposed space plan
They seek, however, not only an
increased rate, he added, but want
the weight system retained, and
the interstate commerce commission
to have the right to grant higher
rates.
"There has been a Justification of
every fact that is material for con
sideration," he asserted. "They
have not presented single fact in
justification of the charge that this
law ought not be changed-not a
single one.''
