A Defense of Adam.

Atlanta Constitution.
The arti-saloon movement is one of the great
est that this country has ever seen, but some of
its advocates should be muzzed Infdel wit
reckless lying and absurd exaggeratious will in
jure any cause. Adam was bad enough without
accusing him of drunkenness. 1t would per-
haps be strong point if he could be logged on
the Prohibition platform as warning example
but the facts do not justify it. The reformer
who falsi6es the Bible to aid good cause will
not do to trust.

Stanley and the Dark Continent.

Henry NJ. Stanley, the great explorer,
delivered his first lecture in New York, on
Monday night the 29th inst. His subject
was, MY African Travels, Explorations
and Works" Rev. Henry Ward Beecher
introduced the lecturer, who was greeted
with enthusiastic applause. He said:
When Livingstone's body was on
its way TO be inferred in Westminster
Abbey he was travelling along the
we,: coast OF Africa. He heard Of
Livingstone's death through a cable mes
sage. He at once determined to complete
Livingstone's work and to find out what
river it was that lured the latter to his
Death. 1t was either the Congo or the
Nile. The lecturer described the agree.
ment of the owners OF the London Tele-
graph with Mr.. Bennett to send him
Stanley to finish the work. He told
OF his arrival at Zanzibar, his journey
to Lake Victoria Nyanza and his explora-
tons. He met five pirate craft, and put
them to fight by setting of an explosive
under one OF them. His sufferings and the
trials of his men were graphically depicted.
He introduced the Bible among the natives,
and his request for missionaries from Eng
a was promptly granted. Speaking OF
the Congo, the speaker dwelt atlength upon
the obstacles in his path and the frequent
skirmishes with natives. The numer-
Gus tributaries to the Congo we're described
at length. He humorously relates how,
after all his work being completed and
ready to return to England hcfound thatthe
left bank of the Congo had been taken pos
session of by the French. He told OF his
plans to prevent them from ~seizing the
right bank of the river. The speaker re-
ferred to India and said it's romance was
ended. White people inhabit it; 235 miles
OF railroad are used; 10000 miles of river
ars used by eight steamers, and a cable
sends news all over the world.

GENERAL NEWS NOTES.
Sensational D~cfalcation in Chicago.

The most sensational us well as the
heaviest d~efalcation which has taken place
in Chicago in many years has just been
brought to light. Miner T. Ames, the mill
ionaire coal merchant, is the victim and
Theodore S. Mize, his confidential book
keeper and cashier, the secretary o. ChiCagO
g. MinOnk Coal and Coke company, is the
perpetrator OF "a robbery that is estimated
at 500, 0O0, and may exceed that
amount. Mize had absolute control OF
the moneys OF the company n the pri.
vate funds OF MIR. Ames. Mize is one OF
the best known men in local business cir
cles. He was a member of the Union Vet
eran club and the Apollo clud, being a singer
OF much ability. 1t is the old story-wine.
Mize is stopping with his father. Besides
the extravaganza manner in which he and
his wife lived, it is asserted that Mize at
various times supported three other wOm-
en-, on whom he lavished money with a
generous hand. Later estimates OF the
defalcatiOn make the matter worse
than at first stated, the amount be-
ing placed at SIP, 600. The
whole family is ruined by the recklessness
Of Il son, who has brought 81 gray haired
father from attluence to poverty and poor
health almost to the verge OF the grave.
The homestead OF the aged parents, the
home Of the sister and brother,in-law, the
residence of the embezzler, the jewels
OF his wife, and his very birthright and
heritage, all have gone to satisfy the
claim of Mics employer and save the sou
from the penitentiary. Transfers to Mr..
Ames were recorded for all the property
enumerated, and TheOdoreS. Mize. Joint
ly with his father, Signed away all right
and title to the share Of the fathers pro-
perty that would revert to him by the pro-
visions OF the fathers will already made.
The brother of Mize, who is in AtchisOn,
Kan, also came to his assistance.
