1t is to be regretted that men who
could have been useful and valuable
citizens should so far lose control of
themselves as to allow the animal part
Of them to cause their own ruin as
did Rev. Mack Scott, who was for
merly pastor of the A M. E. church of
this city. A jury Of his peers found
Mr.. Scott guilty of a crime for which
no man found guilty of should be
shown any leniency The man guilty
of running a 15-year-old girl should be
given the full extent Of thelaw in pun
ishment.

held the same views on railroads that
he does now. He was a candidate for
senator then and Mr.. Preston voted
for him every ballot that was taken,
and even bolted the caucus when it
would not elect Ankeny. For Preston
to pose as in favor of a commission
only for votes is all nonsense. He is
as much a railroad man as Ankeny-

seven years. While in Philadelphia
DR.. Talmage received three calls at
once, to Chicago, San Francisco and
Brooklyn. His fame as pulpit orator
had spread wide, and power to attract
worshipers to his church brought de-

ed the call to the Central Presbyterian
church of Brooklyn, ny.
DR.. Talmage preached in the old
church in Brooklyn for Is months and

ut once begun on q new tabernacle,
