IT IS with sincere sorrow that we
record the death of e. G. Damon,
which occurred yesterday, after a
lingering illness. He was a man
whose good qualities were not alto
gether obscured by their unobtru-
siveness. The sympathy of the
community has gone out to his
family.

Our yiglIant town marshals captured two
packages OF Illicit liquor last week-one o.
three gallows and one Of five gallows.
The five gallon package is said to have been
Manuel Mcclellan, and was captured while on
the way to his house In the night time. The
three gallon package, We believe, was captur

Mcclellan, who Is a widower, his wife having

To the g., g. & N. Authorities.

Abbeville village has shown itself friendly
to the g., &. & N. railway from its inception
to the present time.
Then, gentlemen managers OF the road,
why do you allow whIskey 10 be smuggled
over your road into this town, contrary to
helaws of the Slate, in violation OF the laws
OF the town, and in opposition to the moral
of this people? Are you In league
with the Illicit LIQUOR dealers? Doyou not
allow your tralnmen TO bring liquor here
free of freight charges, and in violation Of all
law? Is IL not true that trainmen have re-
peatedly brought liquor TO Abbeville, contra
ry to law. and free OF freight charges? If
"blind tigers" and other Illicit dealers in Ii
quor can get their freight carried free of
charge how is 1t that legitimate and honest
trades people have to pay for every package?
AS far as We are informed not package OF IL
licit liquor has beep brought to Abbeville
over the G. l. G. road.

Rabbi Voorsanger Upon
Establishment.
A Discourse by Rabbi Levy Upon
the Success OF Friday
Services.

.Shan the name OF the deity be included in
the constitutions" was The subject Of Rabbi
Voorsanger's discourse at the Congr egation
Emauu-EI last evening.
The subject was suggested by the bill intro
duced by Sena or Frye Of Maine Tor the estab'
lisnmenI of The church. Rabbi Voorsanger was
pronounced in his opposition 10 the scheme.
whenever" he said, "a State adopts church
it has the effect OF placing all other religions in
the light of diSsenlers." This was manifestly
improper and unfair. as far back as 1918 the
State of Connecticut removed from her new
constitution then existing law. aud so made
all denominations OF religion coordinate.
The preacher held that the United States
Government shall permit the establishment Of
no other pow save itself. There should be no
encroaching upon the great doctrine which
holds that religion must not be revealed by
sect. The customs OF England, France aud
Germany were dwell upon at length IN this re-
speet.
"In countries where one church rules all that
4 not bow the knee 10 that sovereign power
are virtually eXileds until The Government al
lalns its object" III conclusion the preacher
spoke of the proceedings al ii Kansas cleo ion
the other day. where i voters religion was
questioned al the polls. what shame" he
continued. "keliglOn at the ballOt-bUX Ii Is
to be hoped that this will not be allowed TO
spread throughout the states"
A The Geary-stIeet synagogue Rabbi Levy
CHI tracteriZrd tn last of his lectures for the
ond Moving" The preacher spoke of the
almost unhOped-for success of his Friday
eV ming services, commenced in San Francisco
three years ago. Such services were especially
necessary 10 illustrate The possibility OF har-
monlziug Judaism with modern ideas and 10
give strength 0 the Saturday and its Sanctlty
rather than have or create a plea for Sunday
convenience services.
Jewish thought is divided into various
camps-One strenuously denying, the other as
resOlutely resisting.
Never before on this coast have these divi-
siOns been more sharply defined or more fever
ishly act upon. Reform and conservatism In
the struggle; conservatism wins.
ITO the front win stout hearts, and the
aftermath Will show Us a crop OF loyal and in-
tellIgenL Jews, equal 10 the men and women
whose glorious history has been the admiration
and wonder of the ages The rising generation
is in sympathy with this movement. We only
need to proceed slowly and cautiously.
III we could but read the book OF the future
and see the revolutions OF the times we might
behold a glorious Judaism full Of ferVor and
love 10 the author OF our being"
RABBI Levy concluded with grateful tribute
TO "Ghe gre at popular educator" The daily press
which lie considered had done wonders 10 help
aud encourage The efforts OF religious woi kers
Of al denominations. There was full choral
service.

GOETHE'S FAUST.
George P. Brown Delivers
a Lecture.
Members of the Teachers Club
Listen to an Analysis of the
Poets Masterpiece.

George P. Brown, noted Illinois educator
aud the editor of the School journal OF that
State, delivered an address before the Ieacn-
ers' Club last evening upon Goehe's "Faust
"The critics of Goethe" said Mr.. Brown, "have
pronounced him the victim OF the selfish cui'
ture which he depicts in Faust"
Some people were so great. the speaker
thought, that it was difficult to judge of them
If defective hand or foot had formed part
of the Bartholdi statue OF Liberty. from its very
size and poin of view the error would have BE-
come exaggerated, and the entire work might
have been pronounced failure. Vel win

caes knew him, was very dIHerent person
from Lincoln on his lofty pedestal OF fame, YET
the historic view which elevated Lincoln SO
much above others was more correct one.
From this an analogy with regard TO Goethe
was drawn.

IN the poem are sort OF Jee vi ana hyde.
Mephisto is the negative sell who undertakes
to lead Faust TO mat which he desired at the
sacrifice of his existence" The story Of Mar
garet was carefully told. "Out OF Tie helllSh
dream Faust awakes," continued the speaker.
HE demands of Faust 10 arrest the ruin
wrought. Margaret refuses; she, too, joins In
the destruction of SOCIAL order and the estab-
llshment OF anarchy. She is judged by the de-

she Is saved"
Then the speaker told how Faust entered the
institution OF state and offered 10 help the En-
peror IN a sort of sarcastic way, not believing

cial trouble. He had question Ike that OF

The story OF the Tripod and the vision OF Paris
and Helen was explained. The speaker re-

method of art Finally Faust comes TO learn
that he law of The universe is one of love. The
world becomes divin- instead Of satanic and
Eaust realizes the divinity in him.
God is in the world, not outside" said the
speaker. Faust becomes constructive in
stead of dem oniac. The idea OF the poem is
hat the spirit of the world is divine spirit
and that he who discovers his truth and seeks
10 glorify 1t is clarifying God"
From this Mr. Brown reasoned that the mod
ern art in It's treatment OF landscape and the
scenes of mans life had In 1t equally reli-
gious element with the classic art. which took
for It's themes the myths of the ancIents or the
art OF the renaissance, the subjects OF which

NEARING THE END
Of the Prater Orchestra
Symphony Concerts.
The Last But One of These Enter
tainments Awakes Enthusiasm.
The Eighth Symphony.

The last but one Of the grand symphony and
popular concerts Of the Vienna Prater orches-
ira, in metropolitan Temple yesterday evening,
proved 10 be one OF the most successful of the
whole series. Encores were so persistenIy de-
manded that il was late when the entertain
ment came 10 an end.
Beethoven. as usual, was the composer whose
works oecupied the classical part of the pro-
gramme. The overture, "Leonore," No. 3,
which had been so brilliantly played on Sunday
1ast at the sacred concert, was repeated, aud
again, with the exception Of tendency OF the
brass here and there TO drown the strings, its
performance left nothing to be desired.
The cycle OF symphonies had reached No.
8. All four movements Of The work we're
beautifully played The ALLEGRO Vlvace'' was
Interpreted with charming delcacy, combined
wi brilliant tempo The Allegretto
ScherZandO" pleased the audience so well that
Herr Scheel gratiied Them by repeating 1t. At
the conclusion OF the symphony perfect ova.
tlon was bestowed upon the performers.
The overture 10 Weber's "Oberou'' gave the
orchestra an opportunity OF showing its COM
mand over opeTatlc music. There was DTIl-
liancy and color about The manner in which
this march was played that emphasized ell It's
beauties.
The Schumann encore was excelleney per-
formed by the strings, but 10 was a mistake
TO play II second time in response to a second
encore. The dreamy seriousness OF the com
position develops almost into righteousness
when 1t is heard twice running In a popular
programme.
Tie lovely "Larghetto," from the ciarionet
quIntel by Mozart was charming novelty at
these concerts. Herr Otto Frltzscnr played the
cIarioneI solo With his usual good technique
and refined phrasing. AS usual, Herr Scbeel
followed the solOist in a manner which spoke
volumes for his ability. The Prater conductor
seldom glances al bis music when leading an
orchestral accompaniment for a soolst lie
lets Tie performer take his own tempo and
watches him in a manner that is almosl pater-
nal.
Glinka's "Kamerinss aja'' an entr'acte from
Remedies liking Manfred and two OF
BIahm's Hungarian dances were also excel
lently plzyed.
