with naay Il u the only question.
There y no time for the lighter and
gaysr side. Think OF the great army
Of toilers In the earth. They are fol-
lowing the universal vocation Of try

but he must harness his God-like
powers to drugery TO maintain a bare
existance. Until the bread question Is
settled. all other questions must stand
aside. You cannot make progress In

stomach. Poetic and philanthropic
and even religious moods, require
gasthronomic rest.
Christ With the Worker.
1T Is a legitimate question. Christ
does not sneer at labor. He lives with
the men who work. When you think
Of natures plenty, you would think
the bread question easy OF settlement.
But things are not equally divided.
Some starve. while others are burden
ed with possessions. Our social sys-
tenn is faulty. But faultier than so
ciety is the individual The reason
some people find 1t difficult to earn q
living Is that they are Industrial in
competents and loafers with an incur
able antipathy to honest work. But
suppose the bread problem solved.

beyond making a living? Everything
great in man rises up to protest
against such a conclusion.
Making a living is only an Incl
dent We are here to live life. We
have aspirations as well as appetites-
We can earn wages. but we can do
more We are capable OF faith. and
hope and love. Of idealism and Inn
agination, Of music and art. BY all
OF these the soul breaks out OF tho
tread-miils of drudgery and clamors
for an immortal existence. The secret
of living a life is faith. We live by
faith. All things are possible to him

lis this all? There Is something
greater than making a living. 1t Is liv-
ing a life. and there Is some thing
greater than living a life It ia losing
your life. This Is Christ's sublime
ideal. He put into practice on the
Cross and He summons every follower
of His to a Calvary. Here Is where
the soul reaches the summit. Here
is where the world Is saved. Above
the battlehelds Of Europe shines the
noIy HRnt OF HeTOiSiu t!idt tocoo Vn
this ideal. Here in America may we
have a glory as lustrous Beyond max
ing a life, and there Is something

Cross and make that our shrine"

PEACEFUL SETTLEMENT OF CHINESE TROUBLES
 IS EXPECTED SHORTLY

WASHINGTON, June 2O.-Peaceful settlement of China's internal troubles was forecast in an official dispatch to the Chinese embassy from Peking.
 The message, dated today, said that the two southern provinces of Yunnan and Kwantung, which formed the backbone of the southern secessionist movement, had notified the central government that they favor co-opera- tion toward peaceful settlement and are ready to do everything possible to clear up the situation. Several other provinces are said to be about to take similar action.
 President Ii Yuan Hung, who com piled with the revolting military gov ernors' demand for a dissolution of parliament, has issued another decree calling for a new election. The old parliament, elected in 1913, was held to be unrepresentative. The new body, which cannot be convoked with in a period of several months owing to the complicated electoral machin- cry, is expected to be more closely in touch with public opinion.

NO SPECIAL VENIRES OF JURORS TO BE
 DRAWN IN STATE
New Law Goes Into Effect That Compells Court To Draw All Jurors From The Regular List. Means Extra Expense To County As Well As Delay.

There will be no more special ve- hires drawn in the Superior court at Tombstone on account of the new law that went into effect on June Sth, which provides that when a panel of veniremen is exhausted. it must be filled by the drawing of the names of regular veniremen from cne Jury pox
 Heretofore, whenever a jury panel has been exhausted before full jury was secured for any trial. it has been the custom of the sheriff, on order from the. court, to go out and summon a specified number of men available for jury duty, as special venire.
 The new law prohibits this practice. and provides that all jurymen serving in any Superior court in the state must be regularly drawn. It thus takes the power of selecting jurors out of the hands of any one man, and provides for the drawing of special venires un- der the same system as regular ve- hires.
 The regular jury roll of all the names of the male citizens on the reg ister is made up at the beginning of each year, these jurors to serve for one year. Under the new law, when ever a regular pane: is exhausted. names of regular veniremen subject to jury duty will be drawn from this roll to constitute the special venire. The sheriff must then summon only tn ose men, instead of any eligible juror he might encounter, as heretofore.
 A hardship in the new law is pointed out in that the regular veniremen are drawn from all parts of the county Thus. it is possible that, regular ve- hire being exhausted during the prog ress of a trial, names of special ve- niremen may all be drawn from distant parts of the county, entailing tedious delay to the trial.
 It is estimated that the new law will cost Cochise county about s10,000 ex- tra a year-s5.0OO of it in mileage as charge against the Superior court of the jurors and the extra expense to the sheriff's office of the balance

CHICAGO GRAINS.

CHICAGO, June 20-Reports that President Wilson was likely to exer- else his power to place an embargo on grain shipments that might reach Germany through neutral countries led to heavy liquidation sales today, especially in corn. Prices for that cereal closed nervous, IS to cents 'oweE Wheat also declined, finishing 1 to down with July at POI and Sep tember at 1S0. Oats lost 1z z67s to 1H. . Provisions gained 21s to 15.
 General unloading by holders of corn accompanied the talk of prob able sudden enforcement of embargo regulations. It was said that recent unusually large purchases of corn for European neutrals had arounsed sus- picion and that the new authority of the president could provide an effec- tive bar to any of the proposed ship ments falling into hands that. were hostile to the United States. Rains that broke a serious drought in north Texas and in Oklahoma counted to some extent in further weakening the market
 Hedging sales from the southwest had depressing effect on wheat. New crop offers increased rapidly, but buy CTS were scarce except at relatively low figures. Crop prospects continu- ed to improve. Rains in the spring wheat region were deemed of partic- ular advantage to the bear side of the market.
 Oats were cheifiy governed by the same influences that ruled other grain, especially corn. Seaboard houses bought oats on the decline.
 Assertions that the Belgian com mission were seeking offers helped to strengthen the provision market. Up turns in the value of hogs were also of some assistance.

NEW YORK, June 0-Withdrawal of public participation, and advance in call money to 6ik per cent, the high rate of the year, fresh complications in the foreign situation and unfavor- able weather over western and south western agricultural centers accounted in varying degrees for today's further impairment of quoted values.
 The higher money rates extended to time loans and one-day discounts by the local federal reserve bank, which were raised from to 3 per cent.
 Declines were again most severe in speculative issues, but embarrassed all divisions of the list, including rails. Prices were distinctly firm at the op- ening, but heaviness soon developed on persistent offerings of lsteels. cop pers, oils. sugars and numerous un- classified stocks.
