Aberdeen, Miss, each receive 81, 600 and
that the remaining $1,000 be equally

besides, committing crimes, held up a
mail train and robbed it.
A reward Of 81 900 was offered for the
arrest and conviction of Rube Burrows,
Rube Smith and another member of the
gang. The question before the depart
ment was whether the captOrs could, un
der the law, receive the reward in Wow of
the fact that the outlaws were neither
tried nor convicted, bat were killed dur
ing the encounter. The postmaster gen.
eral holds that there was proof positive
OF the guilt of the gang although IFS ID m
0ers were never formally convicted IN
courts, aud on this ground he directs that
the captors receive the reward offered.

to arm themselves with Winchester rifles

If we could bridge the stream of life

If we could understand, could know

We should not be afraid to go.
If we could know how restful, deep,
The sleep which His beloved sleep,
Like child upon a mothers breast
So gently we should sink to rest
Nor fear to wake where none may weep
If we could see how sweet the flowers
That bloom within the Eden bowers,
Where Life's immortal rivers rise
Within the gates of Paradise,
We should not wish oar buds to stay
Until their perfume died away.

versity Of Mississippi, was made
President L. p. Brown, of Laud

Secretaries. Ringing resolutions
were adopted. We give the clos.
ing ones:
We insist that prohibition laws
shall be administered with The
same fidelity and imparlialily as
olher criminal statutes. Laws do
not administer them selves.
Bound by solemn oath, officers
should see that all statutes are
equally infOrced without tear or
favor. To Ibis end we urge The i'm
portance of organized effort In
each county for the prompt and
proper enforcement of laws against
tiit liQuul NidiiiCs

have no more consideration than
those gully of larceny, arson or
manslaughter. BY organized aud
authorized cooperation we can
have the laws enforced or delin.
quent law officers removed.

ginning of this movement, TO se-
cure the blessing OF prohibition

have il engrafted upon our statute

ZION.
That however wise and protect
i've prohibIlory laws may be we
deprecate any tendency TO confine
reiormatory efforts TO matters OF
civil legislation and adminisira-
ton. Saloons may be authorized,
but are not created by law. Pro-
hlbilionists, therefore, should be
earnest and consistent temperate
advocates. We should not abate
zeal in recovering the fallen by
moral suasion aud in making The
people absIainers from every kind
of inioxicants.
We heartily approve a system
OF Temperance instruction in our
public schoGlt. An intelligent,
moral, patriotic citizenship is the
development of a well-insructed,
wisely trained childhood.
