Veteran viii Succeed Hugo Bez'

Former Leader Of Cubs and Braves "
In Better Health Than for SeveraI
Years and Is Confident OF
Making Good.

Johnny Evers is to be back In the
National league next year as mana
ger. He is to replace Hugo Bezdek as
pilot of the Pittsburgh Pirates, accord
ing to information obtained in Cincin'
natl during the worlds series. The
announcement Of his appointment Will
probably not be made until the meet
ing Of the league in December unless
President Barney Dreyfuss desires to
start building up his club earlier than
usual and asks Evers' assistance In
doing so.
Dreyfuss, in choosing Eyers to re-
place Bezdek, Is not discharging his
manager, but is said to have accepted
his resignation. Hugo is college
coach and is now devoting his1 time to
drilling the Penn State foptball eleven

This has been the most successful
season in the history of the American
association, with the trunstiles show
ing a paid attendance well over the
900 GOO mark. So elated are President
Thomas J. Hickey and his associates
that they are talking Of next year, /"

The principal reason for the elation
Of the. A. A. moguls. is that they kept
their own counsel and decided to play
154 games. despite the advice of the
timid majors and other minor circuits.
AS a result of their foresight. In
seeing that the national pastime was
coming back strong after the war Pc
r;od, the association club owners were
able to stage IA more games than the
bigger circuits, and the income there
from was no small item

Bezdek's position, 1t is known that
several friends went to the front Tor
him and succeeded In arranging q
meeting with Dreyfuss.
Evers managed the Cubs In 1913 and
finished third with the team. He re-
placed Frank Chance as leader. but
was let out after the race and sold to
the Boston Braves. for whom ne
played in 1914, assisting materially In
winning the National league and
worlds series pennants. Evers was
not a success as a manager. although
there are few in baaytll. if any. who
know more about thee tme or the rum

difficulty was in getting along with his
players. He was too drastic on the
field and by his severity aroused the
.displeasure and incurred the enmity OF
his players. Had his men played BAH

might have won the Championship that

Evers realized the mistake he made

SHERLOCK HADl~

watch from his vest pocket, Detective
Leonard placed it against the awning

for the profundity of its tone. said
"Aha! What have we here?"
"Where?" asked the awning man. as

the mystery.

Detective Appel, who believes In fol-

magistrate find that out"
So the awning man, who later said
he was Charles Langfelder Of 50 Wal

Magistrate McQuade in the west side
court. where he denied all.
"Your Honor, we have clue to the
false teeth" said the detectives In
chorus. "Hold him for few minutes,
and we'll recover them"
They hurried back to the apartment

book and the teeth In an ash barrel.
Langfelder was then held In 81 5U

Immortality of The Soul
 Is ScrlpturaI

in the Spectator of May the 30th, I notice an article written by w. J. D. "A Remarkable Foundation. In which he ar gues the question of the immor- tality of the soul. He claims that the belief in the immor- tali,y of the soul is a fallacy, and 1t is of heather origin.
 There is no Christian doctrine that carries with it greater pre- ponderate scriptural evidence, than the doctrine of immor- tality of the soul: ''and of it's resurrection. It is a belief that could not have had it's first ex- istence from mere human mind. The foundation of souls immor- t2ity had it's beginning at the creation. So God created man in his own image in the image of God created he him. l" Gen l:27.

man of the dust of the ground, and bieathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man be- came a living soul" Gen 2:7.
 Undoubtedly the scriptures referred to teachers that this image consist of spirit and not of material matter. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters. Gen 1;2 God is a spirit and they that worship him must W orship him in spirit, and in truth" John 4; "A.
 These scriptures show the analogy that exists between, God and man. We will deduct scriptural text indicating that this analogy exists in all stages of mans pilgrimage here on earth. Hear the words of the Savior. Fear not them which kill the body but are not able too kill the soul:but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell" Matt 10: 28.
 Fear him who is able to sever the relationship between, God and man.
 In reference to the ps ssages of scripture already quoted, we undertake to say that no same, unbiased mind willing to be governed by common sense. can understand them to teach other wise than that the Old and New Testament teaches the doc Urine of the immortality of the soul.
 Further on this subject let us hear what the inspired writers had to say.
 For know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth; and though after my skin wor ms destroy this body. yet in my flesh shall l see God; whom I shall see for myself, and mine eyes shall behold and not another; though my rains be consumed within me. lobe 19: 25-N.

did he believe in soul sleepin g Martin Luther believed and taught immortality of the soul. He did not believe in purgatory and other Roman Catholic falla- cies. Luther expressed himself very definitely his belief in the immortality of the soul in his commentary on l Cor I5:36. "The seed sown, and dying, is ana logous of the body buried and decayed. every living seed con- tains within itself a germ or minute embryo plant, so every living being possesses an immort al soul. Tyndale said, what matter if you distroy this body? My soul will still live to inspire others to continue the work that has be- gun.
 This pernicions type of in- fidelity. as represen ted by W. J D, has infected the Christian Church by iDsestrous advocates protesting the name of Chris tian in all ages of the church in fact in all ages. It infected all people and nations, the Jews had their Sadducees, The Greeks their materialistic philos- phers. It was advocated by Epicurus. Lucretius and other 8 of the atheistic school. And in more modern times it has been jealously espoused by Spinoza, Hobbs, Hume, Volny, Voltare, and other infidel writers. This type of human vultures has always been detrimental to the happiness of the human fam ilY.
 Scepticism has scoffed at the doctrine of the souls immor. tality: pagan philosophers in it's most enlightened: and virtuous phase has trembled between hope and dispair on the ques. tion. But Christianity upon tn e authority of a distinct revelation from Heaven, has exultantly asserted the truth of the doc- Urine.

In 1 Thess. 4:14-18. We read.

For this we say unto you by the world of the Lord that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep: for the Lord himself shall decoAd from Heaven with a shout, vith the voice of the archangel' and with the trump of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first: then we which are alive and remain, shall be caught up to- gether with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord, Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
 In Rev.2O: 12.13 we read. And saw the dead, small and great stand before God: and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life, and the dead were judged out of those thinas which were written in the books, according to their works.
 And the. sea gave mp the dead which were in it: and death and hell (the gravel delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

 They found their objection upon the laws of reason; mere human reasoning has always been faulty, and brought with folly; man to be left alone with out any divine guidance would group in utter darkness.
 That it will be the identical body that was laid in the grave: that is it will be composed of the same matter though greatly changed in properties, and circumstances from what it has been in life is sound scriptural doctrine,
