KIMBERLY AVENUE BRIDGE.
Hearing on Drawbridge Matter by Colo
mel Roberts of the Engineer Corps.

Wearing on DraWDr1dge Matter by COLO
mel Roberts of the Engineer Corps.
Colonel Henry NJ Roberts of the Unit
ed States Engineer corps held hearing
yesterday in rooms 10 and II city hall
upon the proposed construction of a
drawbridge over Kimberly avenue
bridge This matter has been pigeon
holed In the war department for some
time, and it is expected that it will now
be speedily acted upon. Colonel Rob-
erts stated yesterday afternoon that he
would soon make a recommendation to
the department concerning the matter
Attorney John W. Allng, representing
the Winchester Avenue Railroad COM
pany, appeared yesterday to oppose the
building of drawbridge. EX-Judge
Pickett and Attorney James Gardner
Clark appeared to represent those ia
voring drawbridge. The hearing adj
Uourned at s O'clock.
Colonel Roberts stated that he desired
to ascertain the probability of the bust
ness interests above the bridge develop
Ing sufficiently to warrant the building
of a drawbridge. He said that it would
be poor policy to build an ordinary
bridge now and then be compelled to
tear 1T down and build a drawbridge in
five or six years. He will to-day visit
the business properties above the bridge
and look over the ground. He will be
accompanied by some of the owners of
business in that section and by Attor-
ney S. C. Morehouse, representing those
opposed to drawbridge.
Colonel Roberts is president of the
government fortification board and is
the oldest officer in point of service in
the United States army. He entered
West Point in 1858, graduated from
there in 1857 and has since been in ac-
tive service continually. He was the
guest last night of Captain Charles H.
ToWnshend.

soil, atheist az he was, then there - in

is morally and spiritually unclean.
1.-THE world united in saying that as q
husband, father and friend, Ingersoll
was little less than perfect. The man
who processes to believe in God. Christ
and the right life, but is untrue as
husband, false as father, innoei as q
friend, Pharisee as Christian, Is more
of menace to true faith and life than
ever Ingersoll was. Still another lesson
that the church especially needs to
learn at this time is forbearance with
and charity for those who do not be-
lieve in 1t and oppose it, Denunciation
converts no one. The man who has no
faith in a lovingly heavenly Father. in

You'd the grave for all souls, who can
not see in the gentle Jesus the grandest
character of all history. is deserving,
not Of our hatred ana anathema, but
of our sympathy and help.
IA fifth lesson the church needs to
learn from the life of 1ngersoll, Is this:
The necessity of quickly adjusting her
theology and creed to the obvious teach
ings of Jesus, the plain dictates OF hui
man conscious and reason and the i'm
perative demands of modern science IL
she would make impregnable in the
coming century. her citadel of faith and
practice.
Robert Ingresoll was made an athe-
list by the abominable theology Of John
Calvin. According to his light he was
an honest man, one of Gods nob1est
works. Many today believe in the man,
but who cannot get away from the
mental bondage Of the question, Will
he be saved OF course I believe he
will, for I believe all men will be saved.
He did not believe in God. But that
did not hurt God. 1t deprived natur-
/ ally good man of one Of the greatest
joys Of the soul life. He did not believe
in a hereafter. But he does today. He
saw through a glass darkiy here; he
sees now face to face"

EXCITEMENT IN CUMBERLAND.
lAtlantic Telegraph
THE wonted quietude of the little town
AZ Cumberland has been suddenly and
rudely shattered and the dove of peace
has departed from its midst and the
prospects are that it will not return
soon The trouble all arose because OF
misunderstanding between an editor.
preacher and certain jackass. The
story as told by persons who have been
at the scene OF the trouble is as follows:
The preacher, who Is of the Baptist
persuasion was at one period OF his lie
printer, and calling one day shortly
after his recent call to his Cumberland
flock on the editor, he offered to help
him at times in getting out his paper,
= and offering him some suggestions Tor
its Improvement. The editor did not
take kindly to the offer. as he thought
that 1t was intended as q reflection on
the character Of his sheet. In the next
issue he put in a little squib to that
effect. This aroused the Baptlsts and
they started out to boycott the paper
by ordering their names taken from the
circulation lists and inducing other
persons to do likewise. And here is
where the jackass comes in. One Of the
principal movers of the boycott was
the owner Of the livery stable. Now this
livery stable is located within BLOCK
Of three churches of the town. A LOUD
mouthed jackass Is one of the perma
nent fixtures OF the barn. Whenever
+ the congregations of the churches rails,
their voices In songs the jackass raises
his voice in sympathy. The church
people have always put up with this In
terruption with patience, but the edito
has come to their aid He has com
menced crusade aainst the jackas
and is trying to get the town council t
order the removal of the barn. TIL,
rest of the inhabitants are In a state o
mind and are taking sides In the con
troversy and the three-sided fight !
now the ony topic of conversation.
