What JOAQUIN Said.

Joaquin meant to convey the idea
that it was all right to play the

OF course the meaning is there, all
right, only we haven't the optical

Joaquin merely meant to have the

West Liberty, Sept. 24-Whether
or not Rev. Monroe Drew. former
well known Presbyterian pastor OF
eastern Iowa, has shown satisfactory
evidence of repentance to justify his
readmission into the church, is an Inn
portant question that will be decided
in an adjourned session of the Iowa
City Presbytery, to begin in this city
tomorrow. The trial aaa suspension
of Rev. Drew from the ministry oc-
Cured three or four years ago, and are
well remembered in denominational
circles. He was accused of failing to
provide for his wife and children, and
of showing too affectionate regard
Tor other women to properly comport
with the attitude of clergyman.
The trial brought out stories from
various former fields of his work,
which helped the presbytery to de-
eide to suspend the pastor.
One of the stories came from his
initial charge IN Scott county. AS a
young clergyman, in July, 1899 Rev.
Drew sent the temperature way up to
fever heat there by announcing from
the pulpit that he had heard resident
of that town say that "he didn't believe
there was IA virtuous woman between
the ages of 16 and 25 in LeClaire."
This raised such a storm that In a
public meeting Rev. Drew was de-
nounced for his outrageous and UNI
called-foY insult to the community"
AT that time, it is said, he got the Mis-
sissppi between himself and his par
