tbe police did the rest.
Granting this man tbe fair anJ rea
sonable pretext of being there with
bonest purpe, we must deny him all
benefit of doubt as to wiadom in
adopting aucb a plan. He baa followed

all too well, the rottenness and danger
and general character of the (sphere

warning. There is no need of any
large and specific details on the sub
ject from tiny source, especially one
as extraneous as the pulpit Is sup

over-shadows all the lexsons that be

a greater end than ever he had

had been hoped a positive verdict, one

It almply means a re-bash of all the
