HARSH WORDS FOR HERON.

New York Preacher Compares Him
to Wcll-Fed Tramp.
New York, June 3.-rhe Rev. DIR.
Louis Albert Banks in the Grace Meth
odist church last evening spoke in part
as follows:
In the modern social caidron, as in
politics, to use Shakespeare's language,
"A man doth acquaint himself with
strange bedfellows.' For instance, one
of the striking factors of modern social
existence has been the tramp, the weary
wande-er who has thrown off all VOWS
and declared himself free from all of
those stern obligations that hold men
to discipline and wearing toll, the man
who has absolved himself from those
relations that cause him TO stay in one
place and live in the same community,
fulfilling obligations to his neghbors.
The tramp regards all such restraints
as profane and impairment. and sallies
forth free lance. a gay and irresponsi-
Bile knight among the worlds toilers.
''One would hardly expect to find the
companion piece to so disreputable a
social specimen in such an acute social
reformer as Professor George ID. Her
ron, ana YET the parallei nOiOS Very
true. In the remarkable marriage be-
tween Professor Heron and Miss Rand
that statement was made that they
took no vows. They simply announced
that they We're comrades. The orator
of the occasion declared that the law in
having anything to say about such a
divine choice of comrades was profane
and impairment.
Professor Heron has had one such
comrade before this. -Four children We're
the frnit of 1t. Some years ago he got
tired Of his first comrade aud went
away and left her and his children, and
his wife secured divorce from him
on the ground of his cruel desertion.
suppose If he gets tired of this comrade
he viii do the same thing again.
ION this occasion he has left the door
open to 60 out when he pleases. as the
awowed purpose of this new social Cruz
sade, or. TO give 1t the more high-sound-
ing name. the new social apostolate. Is
the emancipation of man from all law.
either religious or civil. Il the new
apostolate should succeed, it would
bring man to the high ideal reached by
the modern tramp. Professor Heron in
SO far as his theories are concerted is
undoubtedly weli-fed. well-groomed,
acute specimen of the tramp"
