How Bishop Gambler Rebuffed
Young Man.

If you wish to arouse sad and vivid
recOllectionS in the mind of a young
man who recently came to Tampa
from Georgia, and decided to better
himself by staying here, just ask him
He'll probably tell you that he has re-
formed on account of his best girl,
but here's the real reason:
The young man in question, like
many others in this city, was a stu
dent at Emory college during the adj
ministration of Bishop Warren A.
Gambler, who is now conducting the
Methodist conference at Ocala, and
all have a vivid recollection of the
bishops heart-to-heart and matter-Of-
fact style of talking. Well, Mr..
Young Man in Question had been in
dulging in a drink or more with a
number of friends, when Bishop Can
dler met him on the fair grounds, and
a guilty conscience caused him to at
tempt a quick getaway" That kind
of thing has been tried upon the sob
er-minded divine without success for
a good many years, however, and the
same sad failure resulted on this Oc-
caSiOn.
John. where are you going? asked
the bishop in voice that sounds to
a former student like the rumbling of
wrath from other regions than this
Nowhere" responded John meek
ly.
Come and let me get a good look
at you'll think you've been drinking,
commanded the bishop.
Honestly, / haven't came 1he
meek and pertinent response, follow
ed by another effort to promote alb
Sence from the scene.
John, don't you know that you
can't lie to me?" demanded the bishop
in a tone of disgust. Didn't you try
to lie to me without success for four
years at Emory, and haven't you
grown old and wise enough to know
better now? And what's the use of
lying now, when your breath covers
an even geater range than your sad
attempts at preservation? Own up
now; and admit for once that you've
been guilty of drinking"
Yes, sir" was the faint response
that greeted the great preacher as Mr.
Young Man in Question made final
and successful beak for liberty--Tam-

Speaking of good newspapers. IT
seems to us that the Times-Union fills
the bill. No other daily newspaper so
completely covers the field it under
takes. 1t has its correspondents and
reporters in every city, town and ham,
let in the state and there is not
a marriage. nor a death, nor anything
else of the least Importance Occurr-
ing anywhere that is not noted In It's
columns The person who reads the
Times.Union carefully is thoroughly
posted on Florida affairs Its news
columns, editorial page and miscellan-
eous items are all selected and edit
ed with scrupulous care. The Times
Union is certainly great newspaper.

A PITIFUL SIGHT.
The Result of Strong Drink and Fast
Living.

There were seen on our streets last
Wednesday three young white men,
of good appearance and good health,
representatives of respectable famil-
les in Florida, chained together and
were being conveyed to the convict
camps to work out a five years SEN
tence for larceny and robbery
In a state like Florida, where there
are SO many new developments on
foot, there is no necessity for a young
man, a graduate of our schools, who
is willing to work being out of en-
ployment, and when this is not the
case there must be something wrong
with the home life.
Speaking of the conviction of those
Young men, the Tampa Times says:
A most pitiable sight greeted the
view of persons having business in the
sheriff's Office lat an early hour this
morning, the scene presented pelng
that of three well-appearing and in
telligent looking young white men,
all members of respectable families,
who were sent to the headquarters
IF the state penitentiary at Ocala, to
serve five years for the commission OF
crimes that resulted from drinking and
, fast living
The men were in charge of Warden
, Bridges. who will send them to the
various convict camps from Ocala,
there to remain in disgrace and oo-
nt.ah la
the time mentioned.
In the trio, all OF whom were oounu
together with hand cuffs, was Hepern
MacWilliams, a member or one OF the
host known families of the state. VINO
ooes to the penitentiary for stealing
$3.50 from w. B. Cason, OF Coiuihpia
county, at the house of lli-fame con-
ducted by Blanche Underwood Mac
Williams appeared to feel his disgrace
rreotIv and held back tears OF Sor-
row with difficulty.
lin Mills and Leonard Hewitt, potn
of whom were convicted of the charge
of robbery at the recent term OF criii-
inal court, were other members OF the
trio They did not seem to feel their
disgrace as greatly as did Mac"ii-
,iams, in spite of which the scene
created considerable sadness even
among the officers of the law VINO are
accustomed to witnessing such scenes
continually. MacWilliams mother'

MUST PAY LICENSES.
For Selling Certain Medicines Drug
uists Must Pay Uncle Sam.

For Selling Certain Medicines Drug
gists Must Pay Uncle Sam.
The commissioner of internal rev.
enue, United States Government, rul-
ed sevra1 months ago that, after De-
cember 1, patent medicines that are
known to contain a certain per cent
sof alcohol would be placed in the
same category as intoxicating bever-
ages.
After due consideration, however.
1T Is understood this distinguished of
ficial has extended the time TO jan
uary 1, in order that druggists may
have an opportunity to dispose of such
medicines now in stock.
Druggists as rule feel that this de-
cision will work quite a hardship up
on them, as it requires the payment
{ Of q United States Government license
for the dispensing of alcoholic liquors.
: It will fall more seriously upon drug
{ gists of dry" town, since a certain
druggist has declared that it would
seem -prima facia evidence that the
druggist had purchased the unlted
States license for the purpose of dis
pensing intoxicating liquors, and thar
Z said action might be SO construed py
s the county or local authorities, wmcn
would place a druggist subject to ar
rest at any time.
All druggists. in preparing prescrip-
tons, at certain times must use alco-
( hOl. with the result that they must
keep 1t on hand, and to do this tney
win be compelled to pay the govern
ment privilege of $25 a year. besides
being subjected to criticism for car
rying a Government license.
To say the least, from the first OF
the year the druggists throughout the
country will be subjected to an addi-
donal hardship, and those VINO 1eei
( disposed may accuse them of selling
intoxicants under the protection OF
%Government license.

A Drum telegraph.

The natives of the west coast of Af-
RIGA have little need for wireless tele-
graphy, according to Il story told today
by Il missionary at the rooms of the
Presbyterian foreign board Talking
of the susceptibility of the native At
rican to rythm, he told this incident:
The African always calls the people to-
gether by means of q drum. The drum
varies in size, but is always made by
following out a section Of log The
drum not only tells the people of the
meeting, but its purpose as well. The
news which may be thus sent is aston
ishing. On one occasion a missionary
was in the Palaver house at Efu!en, at
some distance from his home. A rain
storm came up and he had no umbrel-
la. A drummer, learning his need, tap
ped message to a friend, and in
short time the latter appeared with an
umbrella. The natives have no alpha
bet and an umbrella is not usually in
the requirements of a palaver How,
then. did the drummer make himself
understood? During native wars the
government has to prohibit the use of
drums, as the natives are able with
them to send news from one village to
another.

Wage Workers and Religion.

Along the line of social Christianity
is an article by DR.. Washington Glad
den in the International Quarterly.
"The fact must be admitted that the
wage workers of this country are
largely outside the churches. This
breach has been steadily widening;
conditions. are worse now than they
were ten years ago. One Of the strong
est reasons for this is the fact that
the churches have not recognized so
clearly as they ought the equities of
this conflict. 1t is grave failure. They
ought never to have suffered such an
alienation to occur between them
selves and the people who constitute
the very bone and sinew of our civili-
cation. 1t is the business of the church
to educate the community. She has no
more urgent business. She must not
stand and look on while such tremen-
dous forces are at work destroying the
bodies and the souls of men. She is
here i'm the world to save men, and she
needs larger understanding Of what
that means. She must learn to read
her commission in the light Of the
twentieth century and in the terms of
modern social life. Where else shall
we look for an authoritative and COM
manding Interpretation of the ethics of
the new industry and of the existing
social order? If the church can not
do this work she has no business in
this world"
