Noicing the sentiments Of the

against child labor and starvation
wages for shop girls the Rev. A. G.
Shuler, pastor of the East Side Tab

The Justice and Judgment Of God.

Heaven and engage in the services
of the devil. The man who openly
processes Christianity and at the same
time is willing to prosper in bust
ness that is carried on at the ex-
pense OF human souls and helpless
lives; whose influence is thrown
against the church; whose sympathies
and interest are removed from the
weak and helpless, is the biggest
hypocrite in town, and the DEVILS got
him from head to foot"

liceman Palmer was most frequently
called on to blast the hopes OF the
young ball players, making three
trips from the station to break up the
games, once to McAfee and Mel cits
avenue, once to No. Is Clarke street
and once to one of the parks.
