Stories OF Pictures.
Atlanta Journal

Among the many beautiful
things brought from the other side
of the world Bishop Beckwith has
the photograph of aD old picture
in one of the art galleries, which
represents the 'Last Supper. The
original has a history which is thus:
A monk was incarcerated in prison
for some grave ofense, and doom>
ed to die upon a certain day. 1t
he could paint the '.Last Supper"
in certain length of time he
would receive his freedom. 1t he
failed, the following night he
would die, The monk worked up
on his canvass, putting heart and
soul into his work and wasting
away as he did so, until he became
weak, nevertheless and perfectly
Frustrated. The day before the
expiration Of his sentence the can~
vas was complete with the exccp~
ton of the face Of Judas. Try as
he would, no inspiration came to
him Tor that face. In the san e
prison was another monk who hat
ed the artist. On the last day he
entered the cell and asked the poor,
nerveless, trembling, almost dying
man if his picture was done.
No, he could fnd no face for
Judas, he was answered.
The monk, exultant because of
the artists failure. and the certain
ty that he would die, turned with
look of demoniac exultation and
lett the cell. As the artist watched
his face he sprang up in eestatic
excitement rushed to the canvas,
painted the face of the vanishing
monk, and so regained his liberty.
and at the same time, gave to the
world one of its grandest pictures.
Bishop Beckwith says one of the
finest pictures he ever saw was in
one of the picture gallries in Ital>
ly, and was 'Napolean in He'll. V
Napoleon wore the same frown as
in life, and the devil, the most
conspicuous figure on the canvas
was represented as having the
most strikingly beautiful face imo
aginahle. In the backgrounds
were figures aud faces of women
taunting the great emperor with
having berett them of their loved
ones, while he covering meath the
guilt of uncontrolled ambition, was
seffering remorse in the neither re-
gions. i

Columbus Enquirer-Sun.
The news that large body of
conyicts will leave. Carrollten to-
day to work on the Columbus
Southern will be read with inter>
est and pleasure by our people, but
not with surprise. Our people
know the men who have the CO.
lumbus Southern in charge, and
when they stated positively that
the road would be built by July
lst of next year the matter was
settled.
While it has not been promised
that the road would be built be-,
fore the first OF July of next year,
we are confident that it will be
completed before that time. The
enterprise is in the hands of a
strong construction company. This
company has built road twice as
long, and running through much
more broken country, IN seven
months, and we see no reason why
they should be expected to take a
longer time on the Columbus
Southern.

A Lawyers Neck i'm Dam
ger,

Beaufort county, N. G., was the
scene of terrible tragedy last SUM-
mer, and it is probable that the
hangman will add a final chapter
to it,
William A. Potts, a young law
yer, of good family but dissolute
hahits, had been for some time go-
ing headlong to the devil, when
Mr.. Paul Lincke, a well-to-do far
mor hefriended him. Lincke took
J Potts to his home and tried to re-
form him,
The young lawyer was a hard
case. He had no sense of honor or
gratitude. In a short time he won
the love of Mrs. Iincke, and the
two put their heads toge Their to get
rid Of the inconvenient husband.
One night while Lincke was asleep,
wit h his vie and two children in
the same room, Potts slipped in
and, placing 4 revolver close to the
sleeping mans head, blew out his
brains.
Potts and Mrs. Lincke We're tiled
for the murder. The lady was acs
quilted, bnt the lawyer was found
guilty and sentenced to death. The
supreme court affirmed the verdict,
and the murderer will be hanged
on the 18th Of July, if the covers
nor does not interfere.
In the mean time Mrs. Lincke is
by no means happy woman
She has escaped the heavy hand of
the law, but only to lead a wretch
ed life, branded as an out east, and
looked upon as something worse
than Il murderess. In the interest
of justice and good morals, it would
be a good thing if she could die
with her red,handed paramount on
the gallOws.

UNDER THE DEEP WATER
A YOUNG COUPLE MEETA MYSTERIOUS
D&nFH IN THE c0OSA RIHER:
Mr.. Elliott and Miss Stewart Start Out on
a Pleasure Ride and are Found Dead Be-
meath tks Dark Waters. How Did it Happen.

CHILDERsBURG, Ala -Special:-
The saddest affair known in the his
cory ostahis section occurred Sum
| day afternoon. Mr.. Elliot and Miss
! Maggb, Stewart of HarporsvilIe,
Shelby county, left their homes for
a pleasure drive, going in the di-
rection of Coosa river. Late in the
afternoon an object was discovered
floating down the river, The OBJ
ject was found to be horse and
buggy, and was identified as the
one used by the young couple in
their drive.
The entire community was thrown
into a state of the widest excite>
ment and a large party was speedily
organized to search for the missing
couple. The river was dragged
and the bodies of both the young
people recovered. Both we've still
in death. The two stiffened corpses
were turned over to loving and sor-
rowing friends, who broke the tiers
rible news to the families of the
unfortunate couple as gently as
! possible.
The affair is shrouded in mystic,
ry and it is likely that it was witt
nessei by no human eye. The last
time the young people were seen
they were riding merrily in the di,
rection of the river, aopare fly as
happy as day was long, Not the
faintest shadow of what was about
to happen darkened their bright
faces. What happened, and how it
happened, DO one can say with any
degree of certainty. It's supposed
that the horse took fright and dash>
ed into the swift flo wing river with
the buggy and its occupants. 1t this
supposition is correct IN all proba-
bilify the young man made des7or-
ate attempt TO save the young lady
aud both sank beneath tie death
dealing waters aud there remained
nnil removed by their fri IDS.
Mr. Elliott and Miss Stewart be-
longed to two OF the best families
OF Shelby county and the terrible
affair has cast a deep shadow of
! glcom over the entire community.
The families of the young couple
are almost frantic with grief. A
strong effort is being made to as
certain fuller particulars of the
affair an3 it is possible that the
mystery which surrounds it may
yet be unravelod. The theory adj
vanced above seems 20 be the most
plausible of any that has yet been
suggested, and is generally believ~
eG &c be correct.-Columbus En-

The Working Boy.

II Ne1OS ana Advertiser scribe was
standing Oh Broad street, the other
day, and observed the boys that
passed and repassed. One notable
fact was Observed all OF the BOYS
who are filing in the vacation
term with work, appeared to be the
happy boys. A busy boy would
pass with a quick, firm tread,
whistling his delight at the pleas
ure of being EMPLOYED, which cons
trasted strongly with the idle boy
who. LACED and lounged along the
streets.
Boys cannot be made useful too
soon; at an early age they recog-
nize responsibility, and appreciate
being entrusted with the perform.
ance of duties which ale proper
TONED to their abilities. The work
required should not be drudgery,
as it will soon create distaste for
all kinds Of labor; hut any conge-
NAL occupation develops boy very
rapidly. The contact with those
with whom he deals brightens and
sharpens his wits, and as he deveI>
ops an aptitude for his work,
he takes delight in its performs
ance.
A boy should be early taught
that "life is real, life is earnest, !"
and that the boy Is father to the
man. He learns in the experience
Of his childhood that he who is
faithful in the performance of the
duties that devolve upon him, will
be called to higher responsibilities.
The habits formed in youth are
permanent. This is, with equal
truth, as applicable to business
habits as to all others. A boy
taught to know the value of dol
lar, or dime, through the work
necessary to earn it, will appre>
ciate the Importance of saving it.
OF course, parents should never
neglect what is commonly miscall-
ed the education of their children.
There are other branches Of educa-
ton of equal Importance with
mental training. The hand, the
head and the heart of a child, all
claim prdyerful attention of pa.
rents, and the hest educated are
those in whom there has been a
contemporaneous and harmonious
development of all three. The
child who is permitted to neglect
either of these three branches of his
complete education, will be found
not to be evenly balanced. He
will be a lop-sided, top.heavy or
fudderless craft, and soon capsize
in the turbulent waves cf life's
tempestuous sea ; or, he will find
that his progress is mortifyingly
slow, as he compares it to other
crafts that skim the waters past
him into the ports of promise.
Parents, upon you devolves the
duty of giving direction to the ed
ucation of your children. Strive
to instill into them pure princi-
piles and a love of labor at the same
time that you unfold to their minds
the inexhaustable riches Of "book
learning" Don't create in them a
distaste for work by requiring too
much at their tiny hands, but in
culcate in them a due regard for
the necessity and value of labor.
and teach them to rely, in a
measure, upon their own re-
sources.
1t has been said that as a twig is
bent so will it grow; it can with
equal truth be said that tree
which has grown straight cannot.
with ease, be crooked.
