There Is hardly, n department of the city gov ernment that him not come under Ills criticism. His regular Sunday night ‘•preludes’* have been filled with them for years. He has to have something of that kind to. draw n crowd. You often hear expressions front people that they are going to Broughton’s circus »>r vaudeville. It Is human na ture for people to go to hear some fellow jump on another, just as It Is to go to an exhibition where the risk or danger to human life Is great. That same morbid desire draws thousands to hear Broughton. The religious side of the question never enters their minds. This does not apply, »>f course., to all who visit the Tabernacle, for there are hundreds of as good |HM»pk- who live who visit there fir. religion? worship.
