Cardiff is the last "boom" town 10
fiatten out. The town consists Of a
bank, saloon and store and nothing
more. Boston parties put money into
this enterprise and now their invest
ments are permanent. A correspond
ent of the Windsor Journal has just
teen travelling through the ''boom" re-
gion of the South, Fort Payne, Chatta-
nooga, New England City, etc. He
gives a lively account of his trip, altho'
to investors it must read like a mourn
full tale. Fort Payne is surrounded by
an air of desolation. An old daTkey
described it completely when he said,
ga complete goneness has struck dis
we're town." The New England men
that once hovered about have fitted a
way. The iron works are taking
rest; nature is resuming her ancient
sway. One man left the train to col
lect bill. New England City is as
calm as a day in June. Chattanooga
keeps on trying to boom but says moth
ing about its failures, which are numer-
Gus. A gentleman being asked when
they intended to start a certain interest
there replied, "When we can get some
fool from the North to furnish the mo-
ney." It is the same story right along
from town to town. Millions of dollars
have been invested by New Englanders
in that region which viii not return
the investors enough to pay their ex-
oenses in going down to look after it.
If this money had been invested at
home we should not be counting up our
deserted farms here in New England
It requires more sense to take care of
money than it does to acquire it.

President Harrison paid graceful
tribute to the women of this country
and at the same time administered an
instructive rebuke to the apostles of

spoke of the American home as the
foundation of American life.-Free

1t was thought that the substitution

it proves it is an exceedingly slow way
of getting rid of criminals. Since the
execution of Kemmler not man has
been executed in New York for mur-
der. Several have been sentenced but
by some sort of hocus pocus known to
lawyers their cases are taken before
the Federal courts and then commences
a series of delays which SO prolongs the
life of the criminal as to take all the
moral effect out of the penalty. 1t looks
now as though it would be necessary
to return to the old method and hang
men for murder. The certainty OF pun
ishment gives effect to law.
