Truthfnlness 10 Children.

APPARENT unlike a poet. Is not born

which he has at once to learn, or he
will have no more influence over his
child than IL it was a common stran-

first set yourself to deserve II. What
ever you must promise your little
ones, however small the thing seems
to you and whatever trouble it costs
you, perform it. Never let the doubt
once enter that innocent mind that
you say what you do not mean. or
will not actup to what you say. Make
as few prohibitory laws as you posi-
bly, can: but once made, keep to
them. In what is granted as in what
is denied, compel yourself, however
weary or worried or impatient, to ad

This Is Sensible.

Miss Fannie Gatewood, a reformed
prostitute, was announced to lecture
at Kokomo, but did not appear, as she
could get no Audience. People will
not go to hear her, and newspapers
advise her to hide herself and her
shame from public gaze, beause there
is already too much prostitution. Yet,
the same people will flock to hear
Luther Benson, and will sing praises
OF his wonderful oratory. Luther
Benson, Mace Long, Tyler Mason and
long list OF reformed rakes can
draw a crowd as they tell with glow
ing words how they associated with,
helped to ruiz, and trample under
foot women. The woman cannot be
heard by refined public. Women
will flock about Luther Benson, cry
and pray over him, write him silly
letters which he shows and laughs at
in his next drunken spree; but a
woman-one OF their own sex, with
like nature, who is OF those "unf1r-
Inmates" who happened to fall VIC
tim to the man they waste their tears
and prayers upon-cannot be heard
Let her hide her face in shame"
No, rather ask these men to divide

The cause OF the terrible explosion
at Sullivan the other day Is explained
as follows: Two rooms were being
excavsted toward each other and on
ly a thin wall remained. The gas
had accumulated in one OF the rooms
and the miners had been warned to
cease blasting until the gas could be
famed out. A miner. however, disre-
garded these instructions and ex-
ploded a blast which blew out the
partition. ignited the gas In the va
cant chamber and caused the explo-
sion. Eight men lost their lives by
the explosion or suffocation. Twenty
seven men were in the mine at the
time, OF whom fifteen were at work
in the lower vein where the explosion
occurred. The men in the upper vein
were only stunned. - Indianapolis
