rsl u The Salt Lake
~ public draws the
line at lectures. 1t will positively not pat
ronize them. With the exception of Col |
onel Ingerson himself, no pulpit or plat
form speaker can fill our theatre for SIN
gle night. Within the past ten days we
have had here three noted lecturers, DIR.
Talmage, Rabbi Browne and Hon. W. j.
Armstrong Talmage succeeded, by dlnt
of skillful advertising, to clear S25 for the
benefit of the First Methodist church,
while Rabbi Browne, having no expense 10
meet, got about $40 more for The Orphans
home AS for Armstrong, his hackers had
to go deep down into their jeans TO make
good formidable deficit.
Rev. Mr.. Mabry announced from MS pull
pit on Sunday night that Rabbi Browne
would lecture in the First Methodist
church on the Talmud, but he didn't
lecture. Perhaps the rabbi was too sensa-
tional for the dignifed minister. In
dodgers and interviews he proclaimed hlm-
self as the Jewish Talmage, and as the
only one on earth of whom Col. Ingersoll
was afraid. He certainly out-Talmaged
the Brooklyn divine in all the arts OF ad-
vertising, and as for Ingersoll, we have
Iingering suspicion that he is not the only
man afraid of Browne. Mr.. Mabry proba-
bly, was too The rabbi was one OF the pail
bearers at General Grants funeral, and he
! walked twelve miles in the procession be-
cause it took place on Saturday and he
would not desecrate the HEIR ew Sabbath
This in any orthodox Jew would be COIL
sistent and commendable, but in man
who denies the inspiration OF the Old
| Testament and almost everything else, 1t
lie simply cheap piece OF clap trap calcu-
lated TO puff Browne. For the goo that
it does him we expect he would like to see
| Grant die several times year.
Besides his seductive smile, Assistant
City Attorney Eichnor has another accom-
plishment. He speaks German. 1t isn't
precisely the language of Goethe and
Grimm, but the clientage in the police court
is not partial TO Goethe and Grimm. Eich,
nor's Pennsylvania iargon is good enough
for it. But what puzzles a good many Of
the countrymen of Goethe and Grimm /:
that Eichnoris surname should be Dennis

If Architect c. H. LaBelle will call al

to his disadvantage. Or for fear that he MAJ
not call we wish to ask him what he mean
by stealing bodily two articles from thu
, Engineering Magazine of May and then ped
ding them about the newspaper offices a

their intrinsic merit, accepting Bellies as
