Martens in his morning sermon at St. Luke's Lutheran church yester-aay. "Obeying Christ's Injunctions can never make us losers, but always gainers." The speaker grilled the falsifying of income tax lists and real property values for the purposes of escaping tavo 4sx. spoxe on the subject Render to Caesar the things which are Caesars, and unto Cod the things which -are Gods," touching on obedience to the laws of the state and na vLand showin that, if the laws of ohli to be ob-yed as the first enrtstians were admonished, how much more so the laws of today. Obedience to the prohibition laws was enjoined, and.

if a change in these or any other laws was desired, Mr. Martens urged, a resort to lawful and orderly means andhtn1 fiSo as-mbl. petition As the Pharisees and Herodians spoke to Christ as if their hearts honored Him, when, in fact, their hearts were inimical to Him. so the speaker encouraged his hearers to see to it that hearts and lips are one, and void of hypocrisy and deception. This was a call of Christ to the Herodians and Pharisees to give their hearts to God.

he said, who has a two-fold claim on men: to-wit. th rbim nr and the claim of redemption. "Men were not made to have freedom from God," said Mr. Martens, "but to have freedom with God. Freedom from God is slavery to the flesh, to sin and to the devil; but freedom with God is to enjoy the life of God and angels and is freedom indeed." The evening service was held in the German language and dealt with the subject of what Christians must do in order to preserve the Kingdom of God.

of which, said the speaker, the visible church of Christ on earth is a part.1 These, he said, are daily reading of the Scriptures, regular and devoted church attendance, faithful use of the Lord's Supper, hearty prayer and whole-souled financial support. He taught this from Acts ii: 42-47. Next Sunday, the 404th anniversary of the Reformation will be observed by St. Luke's church, BOSTON WANTS OUTSIDE TEAMS DETROIT. Oct.

The hunters of the various districts are paid in part from the federal treasury and in part from cooperative funds and moneys supplied by state appropriations and from contributions from live stock organizations and individuals.

Methods Great Improved Study and experimentation: have resulted in great improvemnt in the methods and practice" employed in eradicating predatoiry animals. The poisoning campaigns have increased, in number, and have been effectively organized each succeeding year. Their success has been such that in many areas stock growers are. urging their application during the appropriate These campaigns have been followed by a marked decrease in the number of coyotes in the sections pois oned, and a corresponding- decrease in the loss of sheep, cattle, pigs, and poultry. Reports from swekmen indicate that on many ranges and Limbing grounds the former heavy annual losses have become negligible, or have been entirely eliminated.

During a recent five-year period a total of 128,513 dangerous rogues of the range have been killed and skins secured. This enormous bag consists of coyotes, 15,374 bobcats and lynxes, 2936 wolves, 540 mountain lions and 317 bears. In addition, coyotes numbering more than the above total were killed oy me organizea poisoning campaigns. Estimates based on information supplied during 1920 hy farmers and stockmen indicate that the destruction of approximately 50,000 predatory animals under the direction of the biological survey resulted in the saving of live stock for the year valued at about $6,000,000, calculated on prices prevailing during that period. During a period of five years the sales of skins taken by federal hunters totaled $240,423,63, and that amount was turned, in to the United States treasury.

The average destruction, by pedatory animals is esti mates to be tiooo worth of. live stock annually for each wolf and mountain, lion, $500 worth for each stock-killing i bear, and $50 worth of damage by each i coyote and bobcat.

The government hunters utilize, every possible means-guns, traps, poisons, and the like to decrease the numbers of range rascals which ravage domestic herds and flocks. They police the Rocky Mountain states from Washington to Texas, land are. constantly in receipt of calls from regions where predatory depreda tions occur. Three Principal Methods of Destruction witn tne adoption or the hunter ser vice, three methods of destroying predatory animals were inaugurated shooting, trapping and poisoning. During the first year' 424 wolves, nine mountain lions, 11,890 and 1564 bobcats were exterminated.

Extensive activities were also devoted to the matter of suppressing rabies in the range country. An outbreak of rabies in Nevada was ultimately largely suppressed. Illustrative, of the damage done by wild beasts, in Colorado a single wolf killed nearly $300jD worth of cattle in one year. In Texas two wolves killed seventy-two sheep, valued at $9 each, during a period- of two weeks. One wolf in New Mexico killed twenty-five head of cattle in two months, while another killed 150 cattle valued at about $5000 during the six months' period.

In Wyoming two male wolves were killed which during one month had de stroyed 150 sheep and seven colts. Another pair were reported to have killed about $4000 worth of stock during the year preceding their capture. The county agricultural agent at Coalville, Utah, reported that wolves had killed twenty per cent of the year calf crop in his section. A wolf captured in. New Mexico was known to have killed dur ing the five months twenty yearling steers, nine wolves, one cow, fifteen sheep, and a valuable sheep dog.

After personal investigation during a recent year, the president of the state agricultural college of New Mexico re ported that 34,350 cattle, 165,000 sheep and 850 horses are killed annually by I predatory animals in that state, these FEATURES GAME; Ill With -a ninety yard run "Fat" right tackle of the Davis Aggie eleven, took all individual honors in the game between Nevada and Davis Saturday and when he placed the. brill between t-he goal post and then sat down to rest he was given a cheer by the crowd that equalled any: that players 'received when they made a good play. This play came soon after. -the start ii. second Nevada had the- ball on Davis' ten yard line with three downs left to put it' over but some one fumbled the ball and Wilson grabbed it and after dodging through a scattered field for a few yards lit out like a scared rabbit for the goal lme and was twenty yards in the lead of his team mates and the Nevada players.

Nevada won the game by a score of twenty-one to thirteen. With the exception of two or three high points the game vas devoid of any spectacular plays and was slow when compared with previous games on Mackay Held this year. Bradshaw and Martin were not in th Nevada line-up. Bradshaw was at Salt Lake getting a line on the University of Utah team which plays here next Saturday while Martin accompanied Coach Ccurtiight to Stanford to see the Stanford team play against the Oregon Aggies. Nevada made its first touch ddwn five minutes after the game started when Church went around the end for a thirty-five yard Tun after Nevada had secured the ball on a Davis fumble and carried it down the Held with forward passes and end runs.

The second touch down for Nevada came toward the end of the first quar ter and was well earned, Scranton. Fisher, Reed and Church doing the effective work for the Sagebrushers. Davis lost the ball on a fumble about the center of the field and on the first play scranton went through tackle for twenty yards. Fisher then went tnrough the same hole for ten yards and Reed went around end for a gain of five and another five-yard gain followed. On the next play Nevada was neia out on its fourth down Reed toss ed a pretty forward pass to Cnurch who was over the line when he canphf it.

Jack Mc-Auliffe, who enjoys the distinction of being the only undefeated ex-boxing champion, announced today that he would revisit the scenes of his childhood and make a search for new boxing material.

Gibbons and Moore do an their train- ine in Chicago, and that the work here agrees with them is pretty well proven by the way they win tneir ngnts ana thfi wonderful lonjr list of victories which they tiave scored recently. BY AL SPINK Although boxing of any kind is not allowed, in Chicago, many of the most important fight engagements are made them All the arrangements for the next great fight between heavyweights were made in Eddie Kane's office in Chicago. Kane is manager of Tom Gibbons, who lias just completed the longest continuous string of knockouts on record.

From the Kane office Tom Gibbons and Tommy Commiskey are booked for all their engagements. The two Tommies are cousins and they, look so much alike, curly heads and all that, when you look at them from a side view, you can scarcely tell them When news came from Europe that Georges Carpentier intended to fight Mike Gibbons in London, England, ttiis winter, prior to his meeting Tom Gibbons, the news created a sensation the world over. It was not believed that Mike Gibbons would do anything to interfere with the success of the Tom Gibbons- Carpentier battle arranged for New Ycrk in January. A Mike-Gibbons-Carpentier 1 battle would certainly do that. Kane, Tom's manager, says the story about Carpentier meeting Mike Gib bons is all bunk for.

the reason that neither one of the brothers would in terfere with any of the plans of the other, and that a battle between Mike Gibbons and Crapentier, anyhow, would be out, of the question, due to the difference in their weights. While Mike Gibbons is essentially a middleweight, Tom Gibbons is now in the heavyweight class. During the past two years Tom Gibbons has grown wonderfully. He now tips the scales at 190, and while much heavier than a year ago, he Is boxing raster than ever. Chicago experts believe- that as he is today Tom Gibbons would be able to give Dempsey the battle of his life Then, toft, Tom would have the advantage over Dempsey for the reason thafr he has been fighting all sorts of men early and often and knocking them out in short order.

Some idea of the way Tom Gib bons Is sailing around the country was shown this month. On Oct. 13 he was scheduled to fight Hugh Walker, the Kansas City pugilist, at Boston. But that night It rained. The very next night, however, Tom fought Fred Allen in the Coliseum at St.

Louis, a thousand miles from Bos ton, and gave the usual good account of himself. It looks as thdugh the once clever and good fighter, Billy Miske, was through. i Miske was matched to meet Bo.b Roper at Covington, oh Oct. 19. Soon after the match was made Miske asked for a postponement until Oct.

21, and Roper was getting ready for a real battle on the latter date when another message came from Miske's camp. This time Miske declined the issue altogether, sending "word that he was not feeling big, able and steady enough to, cross arms "with so formid able a candidate for heavyweight nonors as Koper. Miske had evidently heard of Rod ers quick finish in three rounds of big carl Morris at Tulsa. and after hearing of It concluded to look around for easier game. In place of the Miske bout.

will now meet Harry Foley at Memphis on Oct. 31, a bout that promises to be very lively and interesting. While regular boxing exhibitions are taboo in Chicago, the local gymnasiums are crowded to the guards every afternoon and night with the big and little boxers and at any old time you can see a good bout. This is especially the case in the big ring and annex to Postl's gym and in the Arcade and Feretti gymnasiums.
