A LIP-CLAIM CONTRASTED.

Doctor James f. Talmagc was the
principal speaker at the tabernacle
services on last Sunday afternoon.
Among other things, he said;
We claim that the name OF this church
came by authority and. therefore, we
have right 10 II, and all that the name
implies. But that name carries with II
responsibility. II we are members OF a
church bearing the name Of Jesus Christ.
we should so live as TO be worthy OF
that name.
In the gospel according TO Saint
Matthew (chapter xxvi.. verse 39) we
read concerning the visit of the Savior
to the garden Of Gethsemanc just pre-
vious 10 His cruci6xion. He took into
the garden with Him Peter and the two
sons OF Zebedee. "and began to be
sorrowful and heavy" because Of the
fatal cruelty that He saw was ap.
preaching. He went little apart from
His companions and prayed, saying,
go, my Father, if it be possible, let
this cup pass from me; nevertheless,
not as / will, but as thou wilt
When humanity seeks such evidence
Of worthiness and right as Doctor
Talmage says should exist in the con
duct of an organization protesting the
name of Christ, it is natural for human.
ity to go to the highest exemplars Of
that organization, If the learned and
respected speaker Of Sunday were in
vcstigating a scientific subject, we have
no doubt that he would seek the highest
authorities for the purpose of satisfy
ing his own mind, Under that sup
position, The will not object if we, in
turn, shall go to the fountain head in
search Of the virtues which he says
should characterize the church and tbe
men who, above all others on earth,
make pretense of being followers and
emulators Of the humble Nazarene.
In his Washington testimony Joseph
+. Smith, president, prophet, seer and
revelator, and trustee-in-trust Of the
Mormon church, enlightened the world
upon his personal possessions and char
acteristics in evidence of his worth.
ness to bear the name of the Christ.
Speaking Of the Father in heaven,
Joseph F. Smith defined Him az being
Ono whom he had the right to obey
or TO disobey, Just as he pleased. Then,
in relation to the intent of the Wood
ruff manifesto, he said that it in
hibitod him from pursuing certain
course in life: that 1t was an expression
Of the will Of God in that particular; !;
that 1T commanded him to henceforth
refrain from certain practices; but that
he had "chosen not to do that. The
Woodruff manifesto was a "cup of
bitterness to Joseph F. Smith, but he
did not pray that it might pass from
him if possible-he dashed it from his
lips as an interference with human
frailty Of which he is one Of the
largest possesSors. He did not sumbit
himself, as did the Savior in the garden
Of Gethsemane, in the humble resigna-

BETTER SHOOTING NEEDED.

Spasmodic efforts have been made
from time to time to increase the eff.
ficiency of craftsmanship of the various
persons, military and civil, who are
under the necessity of shooting TO have
that shooting raised in quality so that
when one shoots he may reasonably ex.
pcct TO hit. Obviously if one is to shoot
Mt all he ought TO he able to hit what
he shoots at. This for two reasons; first,
if he lis under the necessity of shoot
ing at all, that shooting ought to be
effective: second, because if the shooter
docsn { hit the one he aims at, he is
pretty apt TO shoot what is commonly
called "tho innocent bystandcr,' the
one who shoots having no intention of
hitting that bystander and thcro be.
ing no reason why that bystandcr
should be shot. We are not much in
favor of the police shooting at offend
crs, or those supposed to be offenders.
1t is perilous to be shooting in this city,
and especially to be shooting at random.
Some body is pretty apt TO be hit, and
If any one is TO be hit, by all means
it ought to be the one whom the police
man is shooting at. But where the
shooting is wild, where in large mum,
Der Of shots the target is not even
once hit. evidently the shooting is in
effective, and there had better be no
shooting Mt all than such as that.
There have been efforts madc here
to get up pistol shooting matches be-
tween the penitentiary guards and the
but these efforts have resulted in moth
ing, especially so if we arc to consider
tho shooting INDUCED in at an early
hour Yesterday morning when the police
were nfter man who was supposed TO
have held up Young s cafe. 1t is true
that the offender did no better shoot
ing than the police, but that is a weak
Dalliation of the criticism that there
should either be effective shooting or
no shooting at all
In this case it appears that there
was regular fusilade, pistols popping
so that people might suppose a small
skirmish of some kind was on; and in
it all not one bullet took effect. We,
therefore, strongly urge upon Chief
Barlow the necessity Of drill in shoot
ing-not that we want anybody shot
for we do not, but certainly, if
there is TO be shooting, that
shooting should he straight. II
is dangerous 10 have random shoot
ing by the police or by anybody else.
Therefore, expertncss in shooting should
be made test of appointment TO the
police force. or ut least the ability TO
acquire proficiency in shooting after
appointment should be an absolute re.
quirement. 1t may be fairly said that
it was fortunate accident that no
innocent person was hit by any Of the
thirty-odd bullets that were fred in
the running and random shooting Of
yesterday morning, But il is a good
fortune that can not be expected to
last if that sort of shooting is 10 con-
tinue Somebody is bound TO be badly
hurt. or perhaps killed. by a bullet
not intended for him. BY all means if
the police are TO shoot. let them be
expert in the business, so that their
bullets will go to the mark.

Another Attempt to Dust
 Browder. BURST HOSE PRETEXT :.
 FOR SEEKING HIS SCALP Council Committees on Fire and Waterworks Hold Session. Several Witnesses are -Examined- Trend of Testimony Indicates Desire to Remove Head of
 City Department.

Fire Chief J. F. Browder was the target for a grilling examination at the hands of the joint Fire Water works Committee of the Council last night. during the investigation of an alleged defective hose and Of a de- fective water plug.
 The investigation. secured by the re- port of Chief Browder himself, has re- solved itself into an open effort to &C., eomplish what was intended by the ineffective Saul ordinance to remove him from office.
 Although the findings of the com mittee have not been announced, 1t Is known that its report to the Council will be to the effect that the hose which Chief Browder reported as hay ing burst. did not burst from water pressure. but from outside interfer- ence, the exact nature of which Is un- known.
 The hose in question, a portion of the newest purchase of the city, burst while in use at the fire which dam- aged the Sellers & Drum cotton ware- house several weeks ago. At the same time. fire plug on the corner of Coo sa and Jefferson Streets failed to work when the hose of the North Montgom- cry company was attached. As to both of these. Chief Browder rendered & report to Mayor Teague, which was later submitted to the Council The Council Fire and Waterworks Com- mittee was delegated to investigate the alleged defects.

 Fun in word and song. we'll trained voices, good music, and novel scenic effects, are combined in the perform ance given by Al c. Field and his mer- rymakefs. who were seen in Montgom- cry last night
 The packed house of pleasure seekers paid more eloquent tribute to the true merit of the grand old minstrel than Ia possible on printed page. The gem erosity of the members of the company in responding to repeated encores serv- ed to further endear them In the hearts of the local playgoers.
 True to his high standard of mtn- strelsy, Al G. Field has produced an array of stunts which vie in their uniqueness with the talent of the art ists through which they are interpreted. And woven in between the How of hu- serves to break what might other wise become . monotony.
 'Afinstrelsy in All Ages Is depicted in the introduction. In the setting of & magnicent banquet hall are enacted the four stages of the development of "the sock" These begin with David, the minstrel, and descend to the present. day blackface art. Solos by W: Sher- wood and Rfcards and dancing skits by the Brockaway Brothers are features of this act.
 The prime minister of minstrelsy makes his appearance as president or the Head Walters Union, when he de- flyers an address at their banquet. Field hit for four sacks when he di- rected his remarks to My Fellow Pro- hibitionists."
 In dealing with the North Pole con troversy. he said that life was almost unbearable in the Arctic regions. as they had nothing to drink but whale oil. "In fact" he continued, 1t was almost as bad as 1t is in Alabama. When asked why he Is Democrat, constitutional amendment"
 Then pandemonfum reigned.
 Doc Quisley, the man with the funny legs. scored heavily in this act. Charles Rhoinhardt, with his wonderful yodel was the feature of the performance, and he was called back repeatedly.
