pathetic and eloquent over the errors,
injustice and wrongs of society.
They are most fertile in e1pedients
to cure these terrible evils, the blame
Of which they ascribs to society, the
government, the State; overlooking
the primal cause of all this mischief,
in the misgoverned families and
households Throughout the land. It
is there that children get the bias
and direction that shape their entire
future course. The great reforma-
tion that we need, is o reformation
in the families and homes of the pso-
pie. They are so many fountain
heads of influence that send out their
innumerable streams into the great
current of daily life; and what these
springs and sources are, such will be
the character Of our society and Of
our country. When these homes are
places of order and discipline, of
Christian rule and godly living, then
will our schools bs all we can ask,
and our society peaceful, pure and
happy. They that desire to contrib.

There is q common notion that
piety is sentimental sort of thing
that lifts its possessor above the plane

real expression in singing psalms and
talking about religion. st. Paul
seems to have different view of the
piety of children. He considers it
dutifulnsss to parents. Where that
is found, there is the foundation of
households, true, godly living, and
that blessed influence which is to
swsstsn and sanctify all the relations
and departments of life. If we have
such homes in our land, they that are
to give them their chief charm and
widest influence are our daughters,

THE ROOT HAYMAN ASSAULT.
Discharge Of Mr.. o. W. Root-Condition
of Mr.. Hayman.

Late Saturday evening o. w. Root, a
well.known lawyer, of Newport, KY, was
taken to the Hammond-street Station
house, where a charge of assault with
intent to MAIN" was placed agar his
name on the slate.
lie speedily gave bond for his appear
ance in the Police Court this morning and
was released. The cause of the arrest was
an alleged assault upon Ed. Hayman, son
of G. F. Hayman, the dry-goods merchant
of Newport Hayman says that feud
has been existing for some time past be-
tween Root and the Hayman family, grow
ing out of law suit between Root and the
elder Hayman; that last Saturday night
he was passing the corner Of Fourth and
Walnut streets, when he noticed Root
standing at the drugstore corner.
That after he had passed him Root fol-
lowed, and coming up to him remarked,
i've notion to knock you down and
stamp the CUTS out of you" and 'Tll
punch your - eyes out" Hayman says
that Root then struck him twice with his
umbrella in the eyes, which knocked him
down. That Root kicked him several times
while he was down.
Root states that Hayman attacked him
first, and that he took his (Hayman's) UNI
brella away from him and struck him with
it, Hayman's injuries are very severe, and
his physicians are of the opinion that one
Of his eyes can not be saved.
When Roots case was called this morning
before Judge Wilson the Prosecuting At.
torney discovered that no affidavit had
been filed. He called Officer Smalwood.
'Mr. Smallwood,"' asked Prosecu-
tor Murphy, ''is there anybody
here in Court to file an affidavit against
Root% 81 don't know whether there
is or not" replied the officer. "WelI, then,
if Your Honor pleases," said Murphy 81
ask that the case be dismissed Case dis
missed" murmured Judge Wilson, and the
entry was accordingly made upon tine
docket, and Mr.. Root departed for Ken
lucky.
Shortly after Mr.. Root was discharged a
large delegation of Newport gentlemen,
headed by Colonel Nelson and Captain VIM
n. Air, filed into court and expressed their
indignation at the manner in which the case
against Root had terminated.
They stated that Hayman was in very
critical condition, with the chances against
him of recovering. Mr.. G. F. Hayman,
father of the injured man, at once filed an
affidavit against Root and he will be re-
arrested.
Inc sympathy OF the whole community IS
with the injured gentleman, and many and
loud are the harsh words expressed against
Mr. Root for attacking a man who was ut
terly unable to defend himself, owing to
his shattered physical condition; he having
been an invalid for several months from
rheumatism. The health of Mrs. Hayman,
the mother of the injured man, has been
greatly impaired owing to the shock she
received, and physician had to be called
to her bedside.
Mr.. Root engaged the services of Dr.
Dawson, of Cincinnati this morning to at
tend the injured man, but Mr.. Hayman
positively refused to ACCEPT any fayors
coming from Root.
