---Other Cases OF Misdemeanor
The ARGUS few days ago alluded to
the depredstions about town of an i'm
pudent and evily disposed boy about six
or seven years Of age. The young one
seems to have the Unborn instincts of
Aend and TO delight in the destruction of
property, and the use of the most indie
cent language. The ARGUS has spoken
Of the imp's impudence to business men
whose places he has entered and the
deyilish disposition he has shown when
ordered out: the most profane and
abusive language imaginable escaping the
lips Of the urchin.
Nor are his depredations of harmless
nature. A few days ago he was caught
breaking the windows of the First
Baptist church, and this morning
Manager Bollman of the rink captured
him as he was hurting rocks through the
windows of that building Mr.. Bol.man
carried him to police headquarters, but
he was not received. Saturday he broke
an immense plate glass light in the front
of one of our best business houses
while committing other acts not quite so
destructive. Marshal Brennan has been
notified. but has done nothing. tor the
reason that he does not know what to do
The little villain is too young to send to
reform school. yet he has already been
guilty of more evil and deviltry than
most of the boys IN such institutions.
States Attorney O'Mara said this morn
ing that he knew of no way within the
provision of the statutes of reaching the
boy.
Yet it does seem that there ought to be
some manner of suppressing this young
scamp, and the most natural way would
be to learn what kind of training he has
at home.

Christ calls upon you to judge of His
religion by what you discover Him to be
not by what you see His imperfect
followers to be. There may be towards
in the ranks, but the captain of one sal
walton is the "Chief among ten thou
sands" Follow thou me-" says Christ.
1t will be time enough to rebuke the
hypocrites in the church when you show
that you are something better. When
you stand before the judgment seat you
will not be asked what kind of christians
yoar neighbors were-but how you fol-
lowed Christ-how you advanced his
cause and performed his will. God help
us all to mind our own busness-and
when we are tempted 10 pronounce
Judgement upon others may we hear our
Master saying to US what is that to
theef Follow thou me-"

There was something unusually lOrdly in the
stride of Frank Lemon as he passed up Main
| street Friday morning. We we're out when he
called at THE MIRROR office, but on returning
we found good cigar lying table
between the scissors and paste cup. That
night as the smoke of the cigar rose the air it
wove visions OF LIES course; and the
happy father dandling the growing babe then the
prattling child scampering about the home, then
the blithesome. smiling girl tripping off to school
The smoke clouds scattered and reformed, and
the school girl appeared in the glory of woman
hood. smoothing the silvered locks of the old par
ents as the two sat by the evening freside. The
cigar finished the vision passed away.
The other evening while we were engaged in
hanging around in the neighborhood of where
the prison grub is manufactured, it pleas
ure to see fine display OF those admirable twin
virtues, patience and perseverance, by the two
junior guards. A. found it necessary to unlock
one of the locks that secures the levers to the
cell bars. He inserted the key with all the assur-
ance of youth and experience but the bolt refused
to respond to the turn. He made several more
Intellectual efforts then gave the lever a half
dozen vigorous yanks, but to purpose. Then
succeeded series of yanks and jerks followed by
short intervals of deep meditation. B. now put
in an appearance and the two joined forces, the
one working the key and the other working the
lever After a time A. went off and got a screw
driver with which they pried jabbed and gouged
B. grabbed the lever and reared back tugging
slipping and twisting like hungry dog with his
head fast between the fence palngs when he hears
the cook calling at the kitchen door, but it was no
go. Now they tried new scheme. B. held the
key in the lock ready tor action; A. backed off
spit on his hands and went at 1t with rush land
ing on the lever with his heel at the time
B. swung the key but they failed to make con-
nectons. The whole scheme was rehearsed time
| and time again until A. and B. hopping
their youthful brows and bordering in per-
plexity. At this stage made connection with
the cook and took our departure.

Sunday Services.

Services were conducted by Rev. NJ. E. Murphy.
His sermon, of which we give a brief abstract.
dealt with the Inconsistency of scepticsm.
I'm olden times there existed class of individ-
uals called sceptics We must say that this class
is numerous at present as it ever has BEEN
Scepticsm is a disease of the mind, morbid con-
dtion of the soul. and is contrary to the idea of
God and our own ideas of the goodness and wis
dom of that Being 1t is said. wise man adopts
means to the end he has in view. God has Gre
ated us for eternal happiness and, as He is in
fntely wise, He must have adopted proper means
to that end. The guidance of God in worldly
affairs confirms the belief that He has adopted
means to the end with consummate wisdom.
Man is a free agent and the fact that he is so
created is proof that he is responsible being. But
there are those who miscOnstrue the meaning of
that responsibility and conclude that it makes no
difference what man believes or whether he be-
lieves anything. But God did not make US thus
He requires that we shall love and serve Him in
this world. Now, how can we love Him as We
| should, unless we know the manner in VIII CHI to
serve Him? A man may take up the Bible in
search for truth but if he has no pilot or compass
| to guide him he will become confused and dis
couraged by the many different interpretations.
And such is the state of many persons. They
doubt Jesus Christ and the Bible account of
the confused doctrines preached. and the con-
sequence is they believe nothing definite. God
did not leave in this state of darkness. 1t
would be the greatest absurdity to suppose that
God created US for eternal happiness and then
left US no means by which to reach that end. The
trouble is that too Indifferent in fulfilling
the obligations we are under. If we are prompt
and faithful in the search for truth the soul will
find the true way of reaching that eternal happi-
| ness for which Jesus Christ died on the Cross
