After the evening service at the Methodist
church, a Sunday OF two ago, a parcel OF
young men, as they came out to the side
walk, set up a succession of yells that would
have been more appropriate in the mouths OF
Comanche Indians than in theirs. These
! youths are sons of some of our very best citi
zens, members of churches and exemplary
gentlemen. That they are well in.
structed at home we cannot doubt. Theil
misconduct is, in consequence, all the more
re~prehensible. Attention has so often beer
: called to the matter in these columns that i
is very well understood that there is u stric
/. law against misbehavlor in church; but il il
J not so generally known that the law protect.
: congregations as they disperse. Section 1,52
Revised Statutes is in these words:-'Every
person who shall willfully, maliciously o
= contemptuously %disquiet, or disturb any caml
meeting, congregation or other assembly me

S AS to interrupt or disturb the order or solem
nifty thereof, or who shall willfully menace
e threaten or assault any person there being

Unseemly and unnecessary yelling, such as
complained of on the occasion alluded t
above, is clearly covered by this law. TIL
punishment for misdemeanor is by fine, o
Imprisonment in the county Jail, or both. Tn
officers Of the churches in the city are deter
mined to preserve order in and about thei
. church buildings. There should be no diff

y respect for religion; no regard for the feeling
of those who have; no reverence for anythin

these disgraceful scenes are repeated it is tn
determination of the leading men in IL
churches to see that the names of the offer

ID ed to the full extent of the law.
