USES DYNAMITE TO
SLAY WOLF PACK
HAINES, Alaska, May 21. A
pack of timber wolvc3 howling at
Ms door, a rapidly rising creek
threatening to carry away tho sluice
boxes and wipe out tho work of
weeks, and his riflo jammed and use
less, Joo Do Blondcau, a Haines
prospector, hurled lighted dynamite
into the yelping pack, blowing the
animals to shreds and rescping his
imperiled sluice boxes. Tho news of
the little frontier drama reached here
today.
Wrapping two sticks of dynamite
in a sack, Da Blondcau attached n
fuse and lighted it. Cautiously op
ening the cabin door, he threw the
sack into the midst of the wolves,
and as the pack surged around it,
tho explosion came. His cabin rock
ed in the blast, a hugo hole was torn
in tho frozen ground and tho wolves
were scattered over tho claim. He
estimates that ho killed ten of the
animals, although not enough frag
ments remained to insure an accu
rate count.

190S, the stock being subscribed lo- "The third pillar is prayer for the
cally. At present, with tho Decora- lost. A father and mother were
praying lor tho salvation of their
sailor boy. On his way home a man
of God spoke to him of Christ, and
he was converted. When ho reached
home ho greeted his parents with
these werds: '"I have served faith
fully under the flag of my country,
but I am now enlisted under tho
banner of the cross for a more faith
ful service to Christ, my Lord.' Their
prayer was answered it pays to
pray for the lost.
Tho fourth pillar is work for the
lost
"A woman in this city said to me:
1 read a story of your work and I
prayed that you would come to Med
ford,nnd you did, and my husband
is saved.' Two j-oung men were "In
these meetings. They went to Ham-
ath Falls and there gave themselves
to Christ and were baptised and tele
phoned the news here. A man came
forward after the meeting Inst night
and said: 'I am a saved man; praise
the Lord!' God's spirit is at work
tin our midst. Give God a chance.
"The fifth pillar is hope for tho
lost. No man is so low that Christ
cannot save him. Malvern E. Trot
ter of Grand Rapids, Mich., is an
illustration of how low n man may
go down in sin and of the great
height to which God can exalt a man
from the gutter. It is the lost that
God is seeking. His son, Jesus
Christ, came to gather in the lost.
"The sith pillar is that Christ is
for tho lost. Reformation will not
do. What men need is regeneration
in the blood of tho cross. Tom Mar
shall of Kentucky reformed, but a
reformation that has nothing to do
with religion will not last, as his did
not. He died in roes. The onlv
thing that will get you to heaven is
Jesus Christ.
"Tho seventh pillar is assurance.
I know it is the utterance of confi
dence. I know when the touch of
God's power came into my soul. Cut
looso from tho dovil and God will
givo you assurance. If you got n
red-hot testimony for Jesus Clirtat
tho world will drop you nt once. Tuko i
God's word, 'Behove and thou shnlt
bo saved.'
"Napoleon's horso was running off
with him. A privato in tho ranks
sprang forward as ho saw his gen
oral in danger, and nt tho risk of
losing his own lifo seized tho horso
by tho bit. Ho was dragged for
some distance, but succeeded iu stop
ping tho horse. Napoleon said,
'Thank you, captain.' Tho young
man snid, 'Thank you gcnoral. Cnp-
tain of what?' Napoleon replied,
'Captain of my guards.' Tho young
man went to his command, but his
right wns challenged. His uniform
was that of n private. 'What right
have you hero?' was asked. Just
then NnDoleon rodo up and said, "lie
is hero because of heroism nud by
virtue of my authority.' Christ 1ms
snid, 'Ho that believeth on mo shall
never die.' Immortality is yoursfhy
virtue of fulfilled conditions, and by
tho authority of the King of Kings.'
A big meeting tonight. Tho sub
ject is, "Tho Day of Judgment."
Come.
Friday Night's Services.
The Oliver union meetings wore
well attended Friday eve. Splendid
interest was manifest. Sevoral went
forward in respouso to tho invita
tion. Many inoro were almost per
suaded.
Evangelist Johnson, who is begin
ning a union meeting nt Central
Point, was present and took part in
the service. 1
Tho song service, under tho lead
ership of Professor Maltbie, was ex
ceptionally good. Row Oliver preach
ed n very able sermon from Rev..!
xx:lo, i'And if any wns not found
written in the book of lifo, ho wns
cast into the lake of firo." Ho said
in part:
"I am not so much concerned with
tho question of What is your nnino?'
as I am with tho question of 'Where !
is your name?' Ho told of n man j
who received from an eastern rail- j
road company $8331-3 n word for
a warning to bo placed at railroad
crossings. Tho words wero 'Stop, i
look, listen 1' We aro now nt life's'
railroad crossing and God's warning!
to the unsaved of Medford is, 'Stop, i
look, listen!'
"Some people who nro rich hero are
paupers over there. In tho day of
judgment tho all-important question
will not be, How much is your name
good for at the bank or in tho com
mercial world? but, Is your name
written in the book of life?"
Bo sure to attend tho Sunday ser
vices. A great day is expected.

COUNTY JUDGE MARRIES
COUPLE WITHOUT FEE
"Am I doing work without re
muneration? I should say I am
not," said Judge Neil, indignantly.
"Whero did you get that idea?"
"How about that wedding cere
mony the other day?"
"We-ell," said tho judge, rather
embarrassed, "that hardly came
within tho practice of the law or
regular county business. In the for
iner caso I might demand a retain
ing fco in advnnco, and in county
matters I might refuse to record the
documents until the fee had been
paid, but when you have declared
two pcoplo man and wife and there
is no feo forthcoming, what aro you
going to do about it? You can't
untio them. All you can do is to hope
that tho venture will prove so pleas
ant and profitable that some day the
feo will come."

In my last I told you whero I came
from and my rensons for entering
the real estate business, but maybe
you do not caro what my reasons
are. lz so, it may interest you to
know whnt my reasons are in regard
to just and honest dealing. That may
interest you. I hope so, anyway. I
am in this game to stay. All tho land

would do with a big wedding enke,'

my plans accordingly, so you'll find
