GETTING TIE THANKSGIVING TURKEY DRUNK

The opening ceremony of the festivities connected
with Thanksgivin Day in a part OF Central New-fork
used to be, and perhaps stl Is, making drunk the
turkey that was to be the most important feature OF
the holiday feast. When the bird that was 10 occupy
tho place of honor the table had been selected 1t
was taken to one corner Of the farmyard and cup
Of brandy was placed before IT, The turkey would
drink this eagerly and would then give first class
exhibition Of being tear of the funniest kind.
IIc would staggerlngy strut mp and down. his wings
trailing on the ground. At one time he would seem
to look extremely wise and then would appear to be
overcome with the hilarious aspect OF his condition.
In the meantime the other fowls would look on with
gravity and wonder at the curious capers OF their COM
panon as he tOdded around. sometimes eravely swing
Ing his head from side to side and sometimes lifting
II high in the air.
All the members OF the family, and the relatives
and friends who had to spend Thanksgiving with
1t, would gather in the yard and enjoy the s'sht;
Finally, when the poor fellow was exhausted ana
overcome with drowsness, he was killed. -,
The good housewives imagined that II Increased inc

THE man who shuts himself III

The man who shuts himself up
from the world, and lives in solitude
in communion with his thoughts, is
very likely to grow gloomy and pessi-
mistic. He is disposed to agree with
Schopenhauer in believing that every
thing in this world is as bad as it can
he, and that this is the worst possible
world. Most pessimists are recluses
who have but little fellowship with
the world. They are, in the main,
students whose physical constitution
is wrecked by disease, who zee only
enough of men to make them believe
every man 81 selfish egoist. Those who
are abroad in the world, and who are
in the thick of the battle of life, are
almost invariably cheerful and conf,
dent in the ultimate triumph OF good
over evil.

Judge Wallace Is receiving the hearty amen

in refusing bail. He Is one Judge who Ia not
afraid to speak his con victIons and to enforce
the law, even If 1t does keep white man In
jail. Now. since Judge Wallace has set such
an example, we hope Turner will be given O
fair trial, and that by jury composed OF just
such men MS Judge Wallace, who will say
guilty, II the evidence warrants It. The way
to put down crime Is 10 enforce the law against
crime. Let the man who Is Il murderer pay.
the penalty for murder BY hanging. Let us
have no more verdlcts of not guilty through
sympathy or chicken.heartednesR. People
must be taught TO respect the rights OF their

times. Let every violator OF the law know he
must suffer for 1t, and then we will have less
