News Reports.
The News is in hot water over its
extended report Of Rev. Tarbill's SER
mons on dancing and card-playing.
1t gave on Monday what purported
to be verbatim expressions Of the
minister's remarks, among them be-
ing one which we quoted from that
report yesterday. The church men,
bers say that many Of these harsh ex-
pressions were not used and that the
News man materially changed the
sense Of the sermons. Naturally they
do not like it and they partiularly OBJ
ject to such expressions as THAT
card players are neither the most
elevated or intelligent" etc. which
the News gave as Mr.. Tarbill's utter
ance but which his members declare
were not.
The REFLEcroR's report on Monday
was considered fair and just one.
To show Its endorsement Of the
preacher the board yesterday adopted
the following:
At a regular meeting Of the official
board Of the M. Z. church Of Abilene
held Nov. 10, 1895, the following
resolution was unanimously adopted:
Resolved, That we endorse the
sermons given by our pastor, Rev. |
,. E. Tarbill, on Sunday. Nov. II, |
1895; and believe the sermons, AS
PREACHED BY HIM, correctly stated |
he doctrine Of the church and the
eaching Of the Bible, upon the SUBJ
ects of Card PLAYING ana Dancing.

Life Is not faulty. life Is we'll enough,
For those who love their daily round
Of doing.
And take things rounded, rever in

Turning from day to day tho same old

And their old knowledge ever more

Ihave known many such; through life
they went
With moderate use Of moderate

Giving and spending, saving as they
spent.
These are wise men, though never

They looked for little, easy men to

Feel, as my lips come nearer to the
