NATIONAL BANK OF ASHLAND PROFITS fflr AAA AA OVER Ifd.UUU.UU MEDFORDMIUTIAPROBE Local Company Conditions May be Probed ISecauHe of Revelations ltefore Grand Jury. Medford Sun: Complications that may bring forth Investigation by the state military authorities of condi tions in the local national guard company following the appearance before the grand Jury of some mem bers as minors, who testified to buy ing liquor, of local saloons, arose Monday. According to one member of the company, a telegram has been sent to Salem asking that a probe be made. This is but one of the side issues of the turmoil growing out of the political warfare of the last week. It Is said that about thirty mem bers of the company are under age, but that only a small portion of these Joined the organization with the written approval of parents as required by law. Also there is a penalty attached to being in a saloon in uniform. It Is expected that a state officer will be sent to Medford to investigate general conditions, and the allegation that members "rushed the growler" after drill. A large majority of the company are up In arms over affairs, claim ing that they havn been involved in political storms, because of the mis takes of a few, and that the spirit of the entire company should be re flected in their actions. They are planning a protest to be filed against an editorial appearing in an after noon paper, the signatures of the members of most of the company be ing secured. The socialist party, bitter foes of anything military, are blamed by the militia for the launching of a cam paign. New developments are not unlikely. EASTER AT THE M. E. CHURCH Sunday Evening Services in Com. meinoration of the Resurrection. Despite the Christmasy weather, the special service. at the Methodist church were carried out to the letter Sunday evening. There were 29 in the choir, 18 sopranos and altos and 11 bassos and tenors. The ladies' chorus, which met last week with Miss Engie, sang two selections, and the men's chorus a similar number There was a solo by Mrs. Wolf and a duet by Messrs. Tilton and Oien Another duet by Misses Engie and McWilliams with violin accompani ment by Dr. Tilton was especially beautiful. The entire choir rendered an anthem which was followed by a short talk by the pastor, in which he said that he cross as an emblem of -Christianity might better be sup planted by the basin and towel, the latter typifying service. The league meeting was led by Mrs. Stubbs and a duet by Irene Skeen and Wllma Charter was much appreciated by the congregation. Next Sunday evening the league will hold a special Livingstone meeting in the main room cf the church, be ginning at 7 o'clock, led by J. B. Hunter. This takes the place of the preaching services and is in com memoration of the 100th anniversary of the great missionary's birth. Chronic Stomach Trouble Cured. There is nothing more discourag ing than a chronic disorder of the stomach. Is it not surprising that many suffer for years with such an ailment when a permanent cure is within their reach and may be haa for a trifle? "About one year ago," says P. H. Beck of Wakelee, Mich., "I bought a package ot Chamber lain's Tablets, and since using them I have felt perfectly well. I had previously used any number of differ ent medicines, but none of them were of any lasting benefit." For sale by Poley's Drug Store.

Floods al most unprecedented are following the tornado and rains of the last three days. Today they swept four states of the Mississippi valley, caus ing a loss of life that may reach Into the thousands and damaging prop erty millions of dollars. Ohio and Indiana in a less degree, Illinois and Missour feeling the brunt of the dis aster. At Dayton, Ohio, scores of persons are reported drowned following the breaking of the Miami river levees and Laramie reservoir fifty miles above the city. Terre Haute, Indian apolis, Lafayette and Peru, in Indi ana, Dayton, Middleton, Hamilton, Columbus and Youngstown, in Ohio, present particularly pitiful specta cles. In all these cities there was a loss of life, according to the authentic re ports available, and in each city the property loss is particularly heavy. Practically all of Dayton is under water and those who were caught without warning bought refuge on the tops of buildings. Terre Haute, swept by a disastrous tornado Sunday, was today in the grip of a wind and rain storm which seriously interfere! with the work of relieving the stricken families. Late today the death list was placed at 20 at that place, while the num ber of injured Is expected to reach 250. At Dayton three rivers, the Miami, Stillwater and Mad, and another stream known as Wolf creek, Join. For the most part the city is on a level flat wtlh the four streams meeting in almost the heart of the place. The town Is protected by levees about 25 feet high. The levee protecting the Miami broke about o'clock this morning and the flood was augmented by the rapidly rising waters of the other streams and finally made uncontrol able by the breaking of the Laramie reservoir, and the waters swept through the city with terrific force. ,A11 wire communication except one telephone wire to Phoneton station, six miles away, was broken off, and information regarding the status of affairs in Dayton was rendered ex ceedingly difficult to obtain. Adding to the trouble of the town was the dense darkness and the rush ing waters rendered navigation be tween the different parts of the city itself impossible. Columbus also suffered enormous damage from the flood. The washing out of several bridges across the Scioto river resulted in al most a total paralysis of railroad traffic. Later tho west side levee broke and a large area in the west ern part of the city was inundated Fires In three large factories raged for many hours and for a time threatened a large portion of the city. Conditions at Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Kokomo p.nd other places in central Indiana are the worst in many years. At Indianapolis they are the worst in half a century. Fif teen hundred families were driven from their homes and electric light power plants are under water. In addition to the Indiana cities above mentioned these are also under water: Fort Wayne, Richmond, Ma rion, Muncie, Rushville, Kokomo Connersville, Petersburg, Newcastle Frankfort, Andersen, Tipton, Hart ford City, Elwood, Bloomington, Lo gansport, Portland and innumerable smaller towns. In these places many of the resi dents have been driven from their homes and others sought refuge on the upper floors. From many place frantic appeals for aid have been re ceived, but the lack of transportation and crippled wire service forced the submerged towns to rely on their own resources. Adrianople Has Fallen. Berlin, March 26. The fall of Adrianople is announced definitely by the Sofia correspondent of the Presse Centrale. The Bulgarian Schrlpka regiment was the first to enter the city. All the Turkish military depots have been blown up. Shukri Pasha, Turkish comman der-in-chief, committed suicide after the capture of the city. Fires are raging in many sections The populace rushes about the streets, not knowing where to find shelter. The battle which has lasted since Monday was of the most terrible na ture. Bulgarians won by one rush after another against the Turkish guns. The number killed is not known. Precious stones and pearls valued at $40,571,543 were imported into the United States through the port of New York In 1912. 4 THE ANCIENT WORTHIES. Hebrews 11:1-19 March 30. "Our father trmted in Thee: they tnuted, and Thou dld$t deliver them."Palm tt:. CHE broad foundation of St Paul's dissertations on faith is found in the first verse of this Study-"Now faith is the sub stance of things hoped for," etc. As water is not a solid upon which our feet can travel, except It be congealed into ice, so belief, in the ordinary sense of the word, must be solidified into faith, to carry us to our goal. True faith seeks for a positive Mes sage from God, nud diligently endeav ors to find It. Then it becomes an evi dence, or proof, of things invisible. By such faith in God's promises, the two spies brought back good report of the land of Cu naan. Their com- pun Ions. lacking that faith, brought back nn unfavora ble report. By faith Abel of fered God a more excellent sacrifice tban did Cain. Abel's faith, no By faith the tpies brought a good re port. doubt, resulted from an endeavor to appreciate what sin Is and why the death penalty had come. From this standpoint, he offered animals, typify ing the "better sacrifices" by which reconcillutlou will be effected between God and humanity. The story of Enoch's translation is vouched for more .than once; and by faith we may accept it. There is no record as to where be was taken, ex cept that he did not go to Heaven. (John 3:13.) God may have protected his life throughout these centuries to illustrate how human life could have been prolonged by Divine Power, had God not placed the curse of death upon the race of mnnklnd. Noah's faith manifested itself In his building the ark, when there was no apparent excuse for so doing. Rain was unknown until the Deluge. (Gen esis 2:5.) God blessed his fultb, and made him a channel of blessing to his family. The Faithless Not Acceptable Now. St Paul makes a sweeping statement "Without faith it Is Impossible to please God." A person, then, is pleas ing to God in proportion to his faith. Surely here we have an incentive to growth in faith, since God's people desire to please Iliin. Faith is not alike easy with all man kind. Some can crystallize their faith in God's promises into what is practi cally absolute knowledge, on which they dare do anything. Many have less faith, yet are children of God. . These needs must pray, "Lord, increase our faith," and be encouraged by the re wards of faith given to others. There are others, however, to whom faith seems absolutely Impossible. They cannot believe anything beyond their five senses. Are these to be debnrred from. Di vine favor to all eternity, because they cannot please God? This Is not the teaching of Scripture. The Bible tench es that under Messiah's Kingdom "the knowledge of the Lord shnll fill the whole earth," reaching all classes. It will not depend upon faith. The way will be so plain that even a simpleton need not err In his endeavor to know the Truth. Isaiah 35:8. Abraham Looked For a City. Summing up (verse 13), St. Paul de clared that all these noble characters died in faith, without having received the things promised. So strong was their faith that they were content to be pilgrims and strangers. They sought a better, a henvenly country "a City whic h hath foundations, whose Builder and Maker is God." Did St Paul mean that Abraham, Isaac and Jacob wanted to go to Heav en? Were they looking, as the Church Is looking, for n place In the New Je rusalemMessiah's Kingdom? Such Is not our thought. They had no Heav enly promises to think about They had no Word of God to even suggest a change of nature from human to spirit being. All of their promises were earthly "All the land that thou soest. to thee will I give it and to thy seed after thee," etc. To our understanding, the country for which they looked is the Paradise of the near future, when the blessing of the Lord shall sup plant the curse of sin and death. This Is the country which God pur poses shnll be the Inheritance of hu "By faith tome dare do anything." manity in general, when brought back Into harmony with the Divine will, during Messiah's reign. "The City which hath foundations, whose Builder and Maker is God" is the New Jerusalem, which eventually Is to come down from God. But that will not be a literal city. The passage describing it is symbolical. The New Jerusalem will be the Messianic King dom, the center of government for the reorganized social order of earth. The faithful Ancient Worthies will be representatives of the Invisible Mes siah. (PRalm 45:10.) These waited for the promised resurrection under Mes slnh's administration a city symbol ically representing a government; as Washington, the United States. ' in .jiff few First National Bank Oldest National Bank in Jackson County Efficient Service Courteous Treatment BOY TRIES TO SUICIDE Worry Over Cutting of Chum Causes IJoyd Wolgun-ott to Try to Kill Himself. Medford. March 25: Lloyd Wol gamott, a 16-year-old boy, attempted to commit suicide Monday afternoon; because ot worry over the condition of Jimmie Collins, a boy friend, j whom he accidentally stabbed in thei leg while engaging In a friendly scuffle Sunday. Wolgamott is employed by Mayor Eifert in his tailor shop, and to' make the attempt It was necessary for the lad to wrap a piece of leather around a .32 shell to make it fit in an old .38 calibre revolver. This he did without detection, and while Mayor Eifert, A. A. Flynn and Dr. Porter were talking he slipped Into the back room and pulled the trig ger. Following a muffled report, he stagered Into the room, saying: ' "Mr. Eifert, I've shot myself." He then fell face down upon the floor. Recently Wolgamott has been un der the guidance of the mayor and Prosecutor Kelly, and has been mak ing a gallant and successful effort to retrieve prestige he lost in boyish pranks. He feared that the acci dental stabbing ot his boy friend would hurt his standing with these two men and it preyed on his mind. Wolgamott was proud of the record he was making, and during the last two or three months has been indus trious and painstaking. The bullet struck in the left shoul der and Is merely a flesh wound. Un less complications arise he will re cover shortly. Jimmie Collins, over whom he worried to distraction, is also on the road to recovery, though weak from' loss of blood, the knife severing the femoral artery. Easter at the Christian Church. Easter was most fittingly observed at the Christian church with a beau tiful service both morning and even ing. The loyal daughters of the Sunday school had attended to the decorations and it was an inspiration to all upon entering the church from the cold and snow to be greeted by an abundance of growing plants and Easter lilies. Crepe paper formed a part of the decoration also, the color scheme being purple and white. The morning service was mostly given to a song service under the direction of Rev. Mr. Isaac, and the way in which the beautiful songs were rendered did much credit to the choir and was a convincing fact that Mr. Isaac is a wonder at his profession. The pastor's sermon on "The Res-ur-ection" was brief but splendid. The special singing at the evening Bervice was also line, and the elo quent and touching way in which the pastor preesnted "An Easter Hope" was helpful to all. Following are the programs: Morning, Doxology. 'nvocation. Response. Hymn 21, Communion. " Offertory. Chorus, "Peace With God," Mar tin. Solo and chorus, "Going All the Way," Ackley.
