Duty Tha the Church
Cannot Disregard.

Rev. Mr.. George w. Stone. pastor Of All
Souls Unitarian church. addressed the
congregations meeting last night on ''Goo
Government" His address was devoted to
a digncsis of 'bossism.' and to the advoc-
acy of the formation of Good Govern
ment Clubs In every church In every city.
Mr.. Stone also advocated the preparation
of a textbook for public schools describ-
ing. in simple Language. the government
Of the city In all its departments for the
education of the rising generation. In his
address Mr.. Zone said:

1.-The boss organizes his forces in every
ward and precinct of the city. 1t may
well be called u campaign, for 1t has ITS
forts, its intrenchments. its patrols. its lines
of Sentinels, its headquarters, Its commando
ers and its soldiers. Usually its forts are
the saloons: sometimes Its headquarters are
in the saddle, sometimes in some city Of

government goes on. l am not speaking OF
this city, because l do not know about it.
l speak of cities where the boss system
prevails.
What follows? Naturally enough. favor
itism in administration. subservience to
the boss. in the passage of city ordinances,
state and national laws. Therefore. the
boss fearlessly assesses corporations. COM
bines, trusts and individuals and catches
everything that comes his way.
The church has a duty 10 do in this
matter which il cannot disregard without
writing 'Ichabod' over its doors. for re-
IigiOn has at last come down out of the
clouds: it has entered into the common
daily life of the people. Let every church
have its Good Government Club meeting
on a week day evening, committed to the
work of preparing the spiritual soil of the
parish, by redeeming it from the noxious
weeds of crime. and all unlawful acts and
deeds that hinder the progress of justice
and Righteousness.
IT is sometimes assumed that these are
not proper topics for discussion in the
churches. bus We in this church hold no
such views. Everything that is important
to humanity belongs somewhere in this
church. Worship and s~ervice-these are
the great objects the church has in view.
There is no clashing or competition be-
tween them: one includes our relations TO
God. and these are only spiritual: the other
covers our relations to humanity. and they
are limited only by our abilities and our
opportunities. Let us show the quality of
our faith by our works.

TAKEN OFF HIS GUARD.
A North End Begxar ReEains Hi
Hearing and Speech In . North
End Joint. p

c. E. Reid. a one-armed beggar who
said he hailed from Ell Reno. O. T.. was in
the police court yesterday morning to an
swer to 2 charge of begging on the streets.
Reid was picked up by Ohicer Charles
Snead after he had made a round OF the
North end barrel houses begging for money
to buy a meal. Reid pretended to be deaf
and dun and the persons whom he ap-
preached would be presented with a card
calling attention to the fact that he was
a cripple and could neither hear nor talk.
But the man from Oklahoma had evidently
not worked the deaf and dumb racket very
long. or else he was uncommonly thirsty
when he strolled into a barrel house near
Fourth and Walnut streets.
Come in. boys" an old rounder was
saying as Reid entered the place. Call
for what you want"
I'm take whisky, straight" shouted the
man from Oklahoma, as he elbowed his
way to the bar. ~
The bartender who had been scanning ono
Of Reds cards askihg for a cash contribu>
ton looked at him in establishment. Just
then Officer Snead appeared on the scene
and took him in charge. In police court
Judge Durham gave Reid one hour to say

SIDEWALK INSTRUCTIONS.
City Attorney Drowa Explsins the
Provisions Of h Ordinance
IN the ssblect.

Warrants for the arrest of twenty-five
merchants doing business en- Main street

terday charging them with being violators
OF the ordinance regulating Instructions
and projecting signboards. Another batch
OF warrants will he issued to-day and the
cases will be tried In police court az soon
AS the warrants have been served. The
superintendent Of streets is pushing this
crusade under directions of the board of
pubic works and wholesale arrests will fol-
low unless the ordnance is complied with.

great many merchants do not seem to
understand the law thoroughly. City Attor-
ney Darius Brown yesterday prepared the
following statement for publication. CIV
ing In fu1l the provisions of the measure:
Considering the fact that a great many
merchants and business men have made in
quiries OF me In regard to the provisions
of the city ordinance regulating obstruc-
tons on the sidewalks and projecting signs.
l have deemed It advisable to get forth
the requirements of said ordinances as
briefly as possible.
With regard. to Instructions on side
walks. the law absolutely prohibits the
placing or hanging up OF amy beef, pork.

cases, goods. wares. or merchandise. In or
upon any street. avenue. diley. SlueWdIh
or footway. This covers the display Of
goods Of any kind in front of buildings
where the same project beyond the build
ing line. There seems TO be an impression
that merchants are entitled to use the
sidewalk eighteen inches from the building,
but this impression is entirely erroneous.
as no such privilege Is given. Another sec
ton prohibits the placing of am article
or thing whatever upon the sidewalk SO
as to obstruct or otherwise il.
This. of course. does not prevent merchants
or manufacturers from occupying one-haif
of the sidewalk in front of their premises
while receiving or shipping their goods.
but the same must not remain on the side
walk more than two hours.
Vow. in regard to projecting signs. the
requirements are that no sign shall pro-
iect more than eighteen inches from the
building. and all signs must be ten feet
above the sidewalk. All signs ut a greater
height than forty-tive feet above the side
walk must be made of incombustible ma
terial. In other words, all signs project
ing from the building over the sidewalk
must be ten feet or over above the side
walk. and none of such signs must project
more than eighteen inches from the build
ing"

FREE EMPLOYMENT BUREAU.
Establishment of One In
Kansas City.

The bill now pending in the legislature
providing for the establishment Of a fres
employment bureau al Kansas City. under
the supervision of the state labor commits
sion. is receiving considerable attention in
labor circles. 1t was discussed at labor
headquarters. lit Walnut street. last
night. and a crop of applicants for the
position Of manager is fast s%pringing up
This position will pay 5000 a year. and
there will be two clerks. or assistants. at
$50 a month each.
The bill was Endorsed by the Industrial
Council Sunday. 1t Ia believed by those
who have given the matter n Thought
that the free bureau will drive all other
employment bureaus out Of business and
put an end to frauds and impositions. The
bureau would be under the control Of or
ganized labor and all those applying to ii
for work would hrst have to become a
member Of q union. This would be Of great
advantage to organized labor In Kansas
City.
Such a state bureau is in operation in st.
Louis and elsewhere. 1t has been found to
be very successful.
