'The distinction between healthful ath-
letic sports and prize fighting is as wide as
the gulf between Tartarus and Olympus.
The one makes men; the other graduates
beasts. Every state in the Union should
have iron-clad laws making prize fighting
a felony, not mere misdemeanor. as the
books. Then, If the law is disregarded, put
the criminals in the penitentiaries for long
terms, and It would not be many years be-
fore prize fights would become as rare in
this country as bull fights are on State

Of the news of Lincoln's assassination Gre
ated a sense Of things it would be impossi

at the time. For the moment a great feel

perry, until it touched the very earth like a
veil of mourning worn by nature for the

of thoughts and condition took precedence
of military order and duties. Drills and
other exercises were abandoned for the

standstill man looked at man with that

"Algy wore it TO the regatta"
There was a brief silence. Then the
voice walled across the hall again:
"Maw, l can't find my riding trousers"
"Charles has them on" was the re-
sponse.
Then a tired looking young man who
had been waiting unannounced in the hall
below rose up and softly stole away.

Lewis Brewster, of Belfast. who was con-
victed of granddaughter i'll October for the
killing of the tramp Charles a. Brown. was
on Monday sentenced by Judge Whitehouse
to imprisonment IN the county Jail for ten
months.
After the verdict was rendered in October
Brewster's counsel, Messrs. Thompson and
Dunton, moved for new triel. 1t was
understood that the object was to stave
off the sentence to another term, as it was
feared the Justice then sitting might impose
heavy sentence.
The sympathy of the community has been
with Brewster. He is a foreigner, and a man
who served his adopted country we'll during
the war of the rebellion, having enlisted in
both the army and the navy. All are salts
fed with the sentence passed by Judge
Whitehouse.
Brewster was brought into Court Monday
forenoon. County Attorney Brown moved
that sentence be passed. The counsel for the
prisoner had nothing to say, and the County
Attorney said he would leave everything to
the discretion and good judgment of the
Court. Judge Whitehouse said he should
have preferred to have the Judge who heard
the trial pass the sentence, as he was famil-
lar with all the circumstances, but in pass
ing sentence he should temper Justice with
mercy.
Brewster took the sentence kindly, and
must congratulate himself on the terlnina-
ton of most unhappy affair.
On Friday and Saturday last Mrs. Brew
ster visited her husband in jail. The chances
are that the divorce suit now pending before
the Court will be dropped, and that on the ter
mination of Brewster's term of sentence he
will go back to the farm and again live with
his wife.

An old Country Road.

What can be more pleasing than the unmolested edge of an old road, where hazel and elder hang out their fruit for the birds, where the fragrant clethra blossoms, where the wild grapevine and the glossy bramble climb from tree to tree, and wild roses and morning glories brighten the shadows with their smiles? Here in the spring the trientalis and anemone make the ground beautiful with their white blossoms, while the shad bush waves welcome to the passer- by. As summer comes the sky blue chicory clusters there, the milkweed and the epilobium show pink and purple amid the foliage, the mullein lifts it's stately yellow blossoms from it's furry leaves, while barberry shows first it's arcs of yellow bloom and later it's coral clusters of fruit that contrast we'll with the great goldenrod and the splendid purple of the wild aster in the fall.- Garden and Forest.

IT DIES HARD.

stages of "you can't make tin plate in
America" "yOu are making tin
plate in America, but you have to
import your black platte" and "you

OH black plates made in America,
but, then, you know, it is only IN ex-
perimental quantities, and you can't
do it on large SCALE" was compell-
ed on Monday last TO acknowledge
that Gummey. Speering & Co., of
that city, had just purchased a
whole car load of American.made
roofing TIN
Surely this admission by a free
trade newspaper settles the question
of American ability to produce tin
plate in large quantities; a carload,
certainly, is not an experimental
quantity"
But the Times does not feel inclin-
ed to give up the fight against Amer
ican-made tin plate, says the Inter
Ocean, and therefore predicts that
the manufacturers soon will have to
suspend. For, it says, the prices at
which the tin plate is sold will not
pay for the making of it,
Really this is too much of a joke.
Before American tin plate was made
on large scale the free traders told
us that the tariff was intended to en-
able the manufacturers to charge
fancy prices. Now that il is made
on large scale they tell us that the
manufacturers sell their goods at less
than cost.
The tin plate opposition dies hard,
but it is dying nevertheless.
