office last Saturday and said to US that
he had noticed that the merchants Of the
town are not advertiser in the DEMO-
GRAFT. He seemed at loss to know the
cause. We could not tell him.
Just so. We have sald more than once
or twice IN these columns that business
man is sized up by the amount of adyer-
tjsIng he does, and yet the business men
ncrsist in thinking and some of them in
timating that what we say about ad-
vertising is simply for tE'e few dollars we
get for it. We are as honest and square
on this issue as we are on all others. If
it is best for our business men and the
town not to advertise, we say don't do it.
But we have stated above what one
farmer has said TO us,We suppose others
think as he does.

At Halifax court last week, Judge
Graves was Obout to pronounce sens
tence upon Blount Mitchell for steal
ing. The counsel for the defendant
called to the stand an able lawyer of
the Halifax bar to prove the boys
reputation. The testimony of the
lawyer was that BiountMitchell's re-
putation up to the time of the steal
ing had been good. so far as he
knew.
Judge Graves, before the crowded
court room, pronounced the sentence
in these words:
u had intended to make an ex-
ample here of this prisoner 10y Civ
Jog him five years in the penitentI-
arv; but as he has proved a good re-
putation, send him to the peniteni-
ary for only two years and 8 half. |
want it understood thac a good re-
putation is worth something to a
man at all times, and in all places"
The words of the learned Judge
fell upon our eats with peculiar
force We thought how fitting and
appropriate were the remarks, es
pecially for the instruction Of the
young and the nnlearncd. That sub
lime declaration added dignity to
the administrations Of justice that
the young especially ought to feel
{" =, the value Of a priceless reputa>
tion -
If the proof of good reputation
was of sufficient worth t" that
wretch who would soon have beer
| hardened in crime had he not beer
intercepted, TO lessen his penalty
by half. how much more valuable
must it be to one who Is never Il
know the way of such iniquity.
BOYS cut out the words of judge
Graves and carry them with yor
wherever you go, and always re
member that "a good reputation !
worth something to you Mt all time
and ia all places"

The Way.

One way 20 build up cown is to
establish factories and industries
that do not require much capital to
operate them, but would give en-
ployment TO many and good profit
to the owner, thereby placing money

to both rich and poor. and of course
factories mean immigration and i'm

A HORRIBLE EXPLOSION.
4 Boiler Blown More Than Two
Hundred Feet Perpendic-
ularly in the Air.
Two BUILDINGS SHATTERED, ONE
Man MANGLEr, AND An
OTHER GREATLY
DISABLED.

About five o'clock last Friday af-
ternoon the town was startled by a
tremendous explosion with the ap-
parent lOudness of a cannon, follow
ed by q shock like unto the tremor
from an earthquake, Persons on the
streets involunta-ily turned towards
the direction of the explosion just
in time to see the horizon clouded
with smoke and the sky almost dark
ened with the falling fragments from
the scene of horror.
The seat of the disaster was found
to be In a small wooden building on
Main street within few feet of the
woodshops of Hassell & Gardner.
Two colored boys. John Scott and
Henderson Ellison, had recently fitted
a small engine and were doing work
by 1t with a turning lathe. They
have been working with it success
fully, and although the engine was
not new one they aporehended no
danger.
From some cause, however, it ex>
plOded, and completely wrecked the
building in which it VAS fitted up,
shattering every side and par. OF The
building. and blowing the boiler.
which was upright, more than two
hundred feet perpendiculary in the
air. The bOiier came down within
ten or twelve feet from where it went
up. 1t fell upon the top o. good
sized building, whose caves are
twenty feet from the ground, and
shattered through the roof, loding>
ing in the upper story.
Many persons ran hurriedly to the
scene to fud John Scott partly
blown out Of the building badly
bruised and severely scalded by the
steam ana water.
Henderson Ellison, who was firing
the engine at the time. was knocked
twenty feet through an opening made
by the explosion, and when the first
man saw him he Was crawling from
the wreck III a half conscious state
crying for help, lie was found to be

God gives all and receives nothing &.
1t is like all nature to give. Every
part of Gods creation gives to some

part of religion as preaching. The
millionaires who live in palaces Of

humanity, will wear as bright q
