Mr.. Geo. Hale, who has been public
administrator for number of years, ten
dered his resignation to Judge Van Wyck
last Monday afternoon. Mr.. Hale was ap-
pointed public administrator by Judge
Martin In 1881. and has been most capa-
BILE and efficient officer. The reason as
signed by Mr.. Hale for his retirement from
that office is that his private business de-
mands his entire attention and that he cam
not devote the necessary time to the re-
sponsible duties of administrator. He re-
tires from Office with the good wishes Of
host of personal friends and acquaintance.
The Rev. B. F Sanford, of the M. E.
church of this city, is evidently gentleman
who has more faith in practical Christian
work than in fine spun theological theories.
In short sermon last Sunday evening be
made two remarks that contained food for a
great deal of careful reflection. He said
that during his short pastorate work in this
city he had discovered that there were
great many people outside Of the churches
who occasionally went to church, but were
practically outside of the christian fold.
The second remark was aimed at those peo-
pie who always go with the crowd simply
because the crowd go. They were fair
weather christians who dropped out of the
church as soon as christian enthusiasm
commenced to die out. The
Reverend gentleman spoke a great truth
and he might have added that the latter
class to which he referred comprise the
great army of deserters in the worlds war
fare, and like the faint hearted on board of
"a sinking ship, hunt for gang plank in
stead of working manfully at the pumps.
