James Wood receives the prize for be-
ing the Oldest person present he being
eighty-three years Of age. He requests

Evangelist Howard took his test
from / Thes. 5:23: And the very God
Of peace sanctify you wholly; and I
pray God your whole spirit and soul
and body be preserved blameless unto
the coming OF our Lord Jesus Christ"
Rev. Howard talked on tho follow
ing points, Entire sanctificatlon, %
what Isl I; (2) what is its origin; (3)
what is mans part; az what is Gods
part OF it. He said in part: Does
Sancitfication mean Holy Rollerism,'
or talking in unknown tongues? No it
is not. 1t is a glorious doctrine that
Is covering this globe tonight St Paul
preached the doctrine in New Testa-
ment times and its power was reveal
ed to many hearts. And 1t was again
revived by Wesley and Whitfield many
years ago. 1t is thedictrine Of today
that is getting folks ready for the COM
ing OF our Lord and Savior, Jesus
Christ Now what is mans part. What
must he do to receive this glorius bap-
tism OF the Holy Ghost? He must con-
secrate his all to God after he has
been converted. He must die out TO
self, to the carnal nature. He must
come to the place where he can put his
all on the altar. Gods part is to give
you the blessing after you have con-
secratcd; man does not sanctify him
self but God sanctifies him. The Holy
Spirit comes to abide"

RAIL SHOPMEN STOP
WORK SATURDAY IN
NATION wide STRIKE
Approximately 100000 Railroad Work
men In All Parts Of the Nation
Join in Big Strike-Others
Do Not Strike.

Chicago, July /. The strike of
100000 railroad shopmen got under
way today.
Although the walkout was scheduled
at 10 a. m. many workers failed to re-
port at a. m.
The Pullman shops in South Chi
cago, employing normally 10000 men,
were operating with only a few car re-
pairers. Other shops reported cur
tailed forces.
Last hope of the Railroad Labor
Board for averting the strike faded
as the zero hour approached.
Chairman Ben Hooper remained
constantly at the board offices, hoping
some last-minute development might
prevent the strike.
Railroad executives conferred hero
over methods of meeting the strike.
A few blocks away Bert M. Jewell,
head Of the shop crafts union, whose

vented settlement of the dispute with

men of his union. Subpoena servers
sent out by the board had been unable
to locate Jewell.
The shop crafts strike involves
blacksmiths, sheet metal workers, ma
2hinists, electrical workers, carmen
and boiler makers.
The one ray of hope in the situation
was the promise of heads of the main
.enance of way, stationary firemen
and engineers, clerks, express and
freight handlers unions not to strike
until a compromise offered at the
conference yesterday is considered.

MARS TO BE INTERVIEWED

The efforts to signal Mars are not
abandoned but will be renewed on a
larger scale, as Mars is now nearing
the earth and will continue to get
nearer until 1924.
Marconi, inventor of the wireless
apparatus, claims that some of his op-
orators received signals by wireless
or radio that must have come from
Mars and he is coming to America to
make Investigations along that line
A gigantic telescope is being made
that will bring Mars within mile and
a half of the earth, that is optically.
If there are people on Mars it is
to be hoped they are civilized and en-
lightened and not engaged in wars
and bloodshed like the nations of this
old world.
Perhaps they can teach Us how to
avoid strife and other unbecoming
conditions. If so let Marconi hurry
up and get acquainted with our new
neighbors of the sky. If the Martians
are paeceable they should change
their name as Mars is the god of War,
according to mythology.

GERONIMO, THE WORST, IN.
DIAN WHO EVER LIVED"
by Elmo Sooii Doison

XX/EBSTER'S dictionary contains at
w least one unintentionally grim
bit Of humor. Geronimo, a Chiricahua
Apache chief, fiourished about $780,"
reads one entry In the biographical
section. Just how well this Geronimo
"hourished" only the residents Of New
Mexico and Arizona and the soldiers
who chased him can tell. They called
him the "Indian Devil" the Apache
Terror and the "worst Indian who
ever lived" His mother named him
Go-Yath-Lay, "The Yawner"; the Mex
leans nicknamed him Geronimo, Span
ish for Jerome.
Like Sitting Bull of the Sioux,
Geronimo was a much press-agented
and eventually highly-overrated In
dian. Although he was. daring war
leader, he was not a chief The mas
sacre of his whole family by Mexicans
In the early COS sent him on the war
path against them. The laundering
policy of our government towards the
Apaches was largely responsible for
his hostility toward Americans.
1t is difficult to Justify thus some
Of the cruelties practiced by Geroni-
mo and his Chiricahua warriors, past
masters in the art of hideous torture.
This is what they did to one prospect
or, who had been wounded but not
fatally: Cutting Off the soles Of his
feet the Apaches staked him down
over red ant hill. There, instead Of
killing him, they let the ants finish
the Job.
When the government tried to settle
the Chiricahuas on the San Carlos
reservation, Arizona, in 1876, Geronimo
and. some Of the other young leaders
fled to Mexico. He came on the reser-
vation later, but from that time until
1884 it was a case Of ION again, Off
again" with Geronimo. Then he led
our soldiers merry chase of more
than 5000 miles all over the Southwest
and In 1885 was finally brought to bay
in Mexico by Capt. H. w. Lawton.
Geronimo acquired his widest notori-
ETY. while he was q prisoner Of war at
Fort Sill, Okla. He was taken to the
Buffalo and Omaha expositions, but he
| was still hostile at heart and turned
his face away from the crowds. In
1903 he adopted the Christian religion
and became a devout church-goer. He
| Joined Wild West show and In 1904
he attended the st. Louis exposition,
where he almost got writer's cramp
from printing his autograph to sell.
The last years of his life were spent
In trying to persuade the government
to return him to his old home In Ari-
zona. He was unsuccessful and when
he died February 21, 1909, although he
had gone on his last war trail nearly
quarter Of century before, he was
still a prisoner Of war.

NOTHING NEW UNDER THE SUN

The gift of prophecy is wonderful
endowment of the mind and that a
prophet is without honor save in his
own country is true now as when rec
orded in holy writ. Prophecies and
predictions have been made by men
wiser than their times, but they gain
ed little attention-and no credit.
Roger Bacon, who lived seven hun
dred years ago and who was impris-
oned because ne kenw too much, pro
phesied that men would fly in the
air. Fl wrote "Flying machines are
possible, so that man may sit in the
middle of a machine turning device
by which artificial wings may beat the
air in the manner of flying birds" He
had vision of the airlane seven CEN
turies ago
