:, Nothing succeeds like success" But
all our successes are dependent on our
standards. High moral standards are
indispensable requisites for successful
civilization. Character can not be a real
or permanent success unless it is based
and built on virtue and moral heroism
A moral war, to be successful. must
have heroic, determined, unremitting
perseverance in the line of duty; there

moral courage is indispensable.
The most formidable, as well as the
most insidious, opposition we have to
encounter in our effort for success Is
the treaeherous apathy of respectable
citizens; and striking illustration OF
this treason at the present time is found
in the perfdious silence regarding the
horrors produced by alcoholic poisons,
and especially where our influence is
most potential the ballot box.
There is no denying the fact that the
most prolific source of vice and crime,
the great dehler of our religion, the
destroyer of industry, the peril to our
homes. and the great hindrance in the
way of material progress, is the liquor
traffic.
The supreme court of the United
States and the judges all over the land
combine in denouncing this poison of
alcohol as the most dangerous curse
and worst enemy of the people. And
all intelligent people know this.
The great difficulty we have to meet
and overcome in our war on this deadly
traffic is the guilty completely of re-

How L Manage My Sunday
School Class.

Ex-Preacher Charley Moore, of
the Blue Grass Blade, claims to be
equal to any theologian in the
world, and to know everything in
the Bible, but says that "Barab-
bas, a murderer, was crucified
with Jesus" Our Bible says that
Barabbas was a robber and that
Plate released him, as was the
Jewish custem. It is more than
probable that Barabbas was one of
the active parties in crucifying our
Lord. The names of the two
thieves crucifed with Jesus are
not known SO far as we know.

A Little Free Advertisement of
q Christian WOman's Grub
House i'm Lexington.

1 have been drawing my rations
for 81 years today, December 20,
1891. / have had a dinner that
consisted of three courses and a
bottle of wine-didn't drink the
wine but had to pay for it all the
same-for 20 centines, equal to 10
cents in American money; and then
1 have had dinner, all to myself,
without any wine, that cost me a
gold pound sterling, or "sover-
eign" equal to S. in our money.
l have eaten at the big hotels at
Niagara before the war, when they
were. the most proverbially ex-
tortionate places in the world.
AS a gay and festive drummer
known to have a pocket full of
my employers money. 1 have
fitted from hotel to hotel, ad lib
itum, and sucked in their sweets
like humble bee in clover field.
But the most extortionate bill l
have ever paid for any grub that
/ ever ate was at the "Woman's
Exchange in Lexington the other
day.
It's menu stated that it was run
by some kind of a Christian
WOman's organization, and l
went there partly because 1 wanted
to help the ladies, and the other
part to help myself.
The next time 1 want to help
that shebang. 1 will 60 and give
them a half dollar and 60 some
where else and buy my dinner. 1t
will be about judgment day, or
the day after, as l will probably
be busy on the first day.
If ever 1 kicked about what 1
had to pay for anything to eat be-
fore, I do not now remember it.
l did kick and did it vigorously,
for 1 think anything that is
worth doing is worth doing
right; and it was to a lady who
was managing.
She smiled complacently and said
l would have tn make my COM
plant to the lady president of the
concern.
l would not say this except that
l had had a similar experience
there before.
l paid the most money for the
least to eat, that was ordinarily
good; with the poorest table out
fit, the poorest house and the
ugliest and blacklist female Afri-
cans to wait on me, that I have
come across in a pretty broad gas
tronomic experience. This is not

Save Herself

Save Herself
LONDON, July 1.-The North German
Lloyd steamship Trave ran into and in
stantly sank the bark Fred B. Taylor
Wednesday June %, at $50 in the morning,
when 250 miles from New York.
The first officer Of the Trave, quick TO
act, saw that he must cut her down rather
than be cut down, and, turning bow on,
the Trave caught deliberately the wooden
side Of the sailing vessel about three-quar-
ters back from her bow and cut her diagon-
ally through and through.
The crew Of the wrecked bark clung to
the spars until nearly all were rescued by
boats from the Trave Two out Of twenty
two persons on the i'll fated craft were lost,
The first mate, Charles Wodeley an Eng
lishman, was asleep in his birth at the time
and was cut in two by the steamers iron
bow.
Tho Trave stove in one plate on her star
board bow, cracked another great plate,
smashed a hole in her bow more than four
feet square and was otherwise badly bat
tered.
Captain Hubert, Of the sailing ship, and
Second Mate Carl JAEGER, who had the watch
at the time they We're cut down, lay the
blame on the Trave, and say she should
have blown her foghorn. They say they
blew their horn. The captain and other
officers Of the Trave say they heard no horn
and lay the blame ON the sailing vessel.
