Chautauqua. n. Y. July 21.-'What
right have we to luxury while others
starve in sight Of plenty?" asked Rev. c.
F. Aked, pastor Of the Fifth Avenue Bap-
list Church, Of New York. in his sermon
before 10000 people at Chautauqua Assem-
bly, to-day.
What of. the myrlads OF our brethren,

Conventionality IN worship was de-
nounced roundly by the New York
preacher.

misery. Melancholy is not righteousness
We shall not go TO heaven for our tears

preacher; we live faster than man ever
lived before. We burn the candle at both

army work in connection with regulars,
there were scores of members Of the
guard who found their business would
not permit them to attend the annual en-
campment.
The reason for this is the way they
were worked out last year at Fort Gretna,
where Gen Grant had charge. The regu-
lars were put through their PAGES, and
the guardsmen, green and most OF them
fresh from offices, were expected to keep
up. They didn't like it. Many of
them were seriously Inconvenience be-
cause of the firing effects OF their work,
and they feared a repetition of that kind
of severe campaigning again this year.
All who have come TO these forts. how
ever, are well pleased, and glad they
didn't stay home. Both Col. Urell and
Mai Stephan, the latter in command at
Fort Hunt are loud In their praises Of the
reception they have been rendered and
the arrangements made for the taking
care Of the guardsmen-
Cook sheds and eating benches have
been provided in both camps, and there
are arrangements for shower baths and
every possible comfort has been placed at
the disposal Of the visitors.
Fort HINT Is Mosquito Free.
Mai. Stephan is particularly well pleased
/ with the arrangements at Fort Hunt. The
men enjoy their shower baths to the ut
most. and the absence of mosquitoes is due
TO the energy of DR.. J.-W. Hart, the post
surgeon. He has an idea there is no rea-
son for man being bothered by the usual
pest. and has oiled the water. the sewers
and everything in sight about the fort
4 The result is a pleasant absence Of the
familiar "cuzzin" Of the "skeeter," aud
naturally, the men are pleased.
Tonight a guard was detailed at Hun
ters Crossing TO take care OF some of the
/ regulars, who are said to have kicked
up quite a muss on a late car from Alex
andria last night. It seems a party OF
them had an alteration with the con
ductOr Of the car, and the result was the
calling out OF a patrol from the fort last
night to take care Of the men. An IN.
vestigatiOn is being made to see If The
/ charge that a soldier hurled a bottle OF
/ beer through the glass at motorman Is
true. and. if so. there may be further
action taken although the name OF the
I suspected soldier has not been furnished

I that stopped at the wharf at Fort Wash

He was removed to the Harlem Hos

he had been beaten and robbed.
"One man kicked me in the stomach, :"
said the physician, while a strapping big
fellow choked me with his two thumbs.
Then one man hit me on the jaw. I think
it was with blackjack. A few minutes
later my wallet containing so, was taken.
About this time some one handed me
a glass of what seemed to be water but
from the taste l should say was a drug.

FEWER SALOONS IN ST. LOUIS.
Decrease Attributed to Operation of

st. Louis, July H-There are 166 fewer
saloons in st. Louis than there were a
week ago, according to figures issued
by the excise commissioners Office. The
loss in revenue to the city If this decrease
holds through the year VIII be $4,000.
The decrease in the number Of licenses
issued is attributed to the operation of
the McDavid law, which raised the cost
OF a State license from 800 10 500 and
contains a provision that dramshops shall
remain closed from - o'clock Saturday
night until 3 O'Clock Monday morning.
The new law closing saloons every night

partly responsible for the decrease,

FIGHTS PROHl-
BITION.

The Rev. Earl G. Davis of Pitts
field, Mass, came out for high IL
cense as a means of controlling the
liquor business in his town. The
Reverend gentleman may be after
a little sensational advertising but
one thing we must give him credit
for and that is using good common
sense and advocating something
practical. In explaining his reason
for not joining the anti-saloon
eague he state d, Il was born in
Maine and brought up there and
from what l have seen in Maine
Judge that no license in Pittsfi ED
would mean the establishment OF
Vulnerable kitchen dives that would
be run in connection with houses
of illrepute and morally the effect
would be infinitely worse than
open saloons Another thing he
has done which dis tinguishes him
from the avera ge minister was his
success in getting his church to
abandon church suppers. He
speaks of them in the following
manner:
"Church suppers for revenue as
they have been conducted at some
churches are light form OF graft.
The sale Of tickets for such suppers
to those who really don't want
them is sort of blackmail."
At special parish meeting called
at the suggestion OF Mr.. Davis it
was voted to abandon church sup
pers and the request of the Rev.
Mr.. Davis that he be allowed to
work in the plant of the Stanley
Electric company was granted.
He then asked that $500 be taken
from his salary at Unity Church
making that now $500.
Mr.. Davis arranged with the
Stanley company that he should
have time out for weddings and
funerals. He has taken one even
ing a week for parish calls and has
thought out his sermons largely
while at his daily work. He has
an hour for dinner and quits at 5

mortgage at the same interest rate
and the same easy terms Of pay
ment as heretofore. The talk that
grain buyers have quit the business
becs use they cannot get money to
pay for hay and grain is absolute
nonsense. They have quit for the
present simply and solely because
the warehouses are full and they
cannot get cars to haul out what
they have already bought. The
banks of the west are full of money,
and the western farmers have I'M

in which they were given chance
to tell OF all the great and good
things the G.. o. P. had done in
the way of protecting the game Of
Idaho.
E. g. Budden supposed to be q
game warden from Canyon county
gave out the following interview
which would lead one to believe all
the party dangerous Of that COM
munity who were out of job had
been Matching out game birds on
an overtime schedule. Here is
what he said.
"E. G. Budden Of Canyon
county, is glad to report that there
have been more birds than there
has been in the last five years pre-
vious aud that both ducks and
chickens are on tie increase. In
the streams in his county. a great
many black bass and rock bass can
be found. The beaver are quite
plentiful along the Payette river
and there are also great many in
Lower Boise river. Monaghan
pheasants are found in small num-
bers along Willow creek"
And here is what the Parma
Herald, the local paper, has to say
about it:
Rock bass in the Boise and Pay
cite! Beaver plen tiful in Lower
Boise!! Mongolian pheasants on
Willow Creek!!! Good Lord, de-
liver us!!!! Who is Mr.. Budden,
anyway; and what does he know
about the fish and game of Canyon
county? Where does he hail from,
and whoever heard of him?
Perhaps the rottenest part of
Gooding's rotten administration is
the manner in which the fish and
game department is mishandled.
That department don't know
enough to use knockout drops in
stead of a sandbag on the sports
men of the state. The state game
warden has probably taken the B.
s. degree himself, and expects all
his underlings to qualify likewise
And such bunch as they make!
Oh Lord!
