REV. JOSEPH Cook was in Omaha
the other evening, and the Herald thus
editoriaIly sums up the result of his
lecture:
Two hours and a half Of Joseph Cook
was at least an hour too much. That
he said many good and grand things in
a discussion whose ill-regulated range
was as wide as the physical world and
human affairs is most true. But he
said little that was either new or origi-
nal, and his manner of saying it was
bereft, for the greater part, Of anything
like the charm of true oratory.
