THE CARBON HILL MURDER.

Burns wrote:-"Man's inhuman-
ity to man makes countless thous-
ands mourn" and if this was true
in the lifetime of the Highland
bard, it is no better in this the last
decade of the nineteenth century.
Civilization and law has done
but little to tame the wild spirit or
cool the fiery temper of man.
When a crime like the one com
mitted last Saturday is calculated
to cause the blush of shame, for
our boasted civilization to tinge
the cheek, and to cause us to in
quire in what respects we are bet
ter than our ancestors.
There must be II serious defect in
our system or we fail to properly
distinguish between liberty and IL
cense.
The common disregard of the
restraints of law must be attribu-
ted to fatal defect in the law it.
self or the law is rendered nuga-
tory by the failure to regularly
and unflinchingly execute its pro-
visions.
In our opinion the latter is the
prime cause for much of the crimi-
nal lawlessness Of our day.
Courts are but little more than a
medium in which, through II laba-
rynth of technicalities all sorts of
crimes are excused and condoned.
So mercifW have our laws become
under our practice that the ninety
and nine nearly always go clear,
and the one in the hundred which
the JalC cannot excuse, is very gen
orally acquitted by sentimental,
if not a silly jury.
No sooner is man charged with
crime than the public begin to
hunt for circumstances that can be
tortured into the appearance of an
excuse for its preparation, and the
State hastens to furnish, at public
expense, the best counsel that can
be selected by the criminal, whose
bounded duty it is to create Il "rea-
sonable doubt" in the mental va
cuum of the average criminal
juror, and no sooner is the verdict
of "not guilty" handed in than the
accused is congratulated on the
fact of his acquittal and feted as II
hero, not because his innocence
has been established, but because
the State, handicapped by legal
technicalities, and shorn Of power
by jury system that places II bar
on intelligence and holds educa-
ton at a discount, has failed to dis
pei the ghostly mists conjured up
by timorous and vacillating minds,
and very generally mistaken for
"reasonable doubts"
So long as Justice? God save the
mark! Is so administered, and 50
long as jurors are willing to evade
duty crime will increase and mur-
derers grow bold.
The disregard of law by the
masses, and the criminal tender
ness on the part of the people, so
often mistake for mercy, which
demoralizes juries and seals the
mouths of witnesses is the pabulum
on which crime feeds and grows
strong and arrogant.
Without these causes alive in
our community, Chute would not
now be in his grave, nor Heis be
languishing in Jail, charged with
homicide.

THERE should not be less talk of

the wages of the men must be re-

manu- nrmIy through her arm, with Ii
few quick words of sympathy, and call
ing to the boys to follow led the morti-
fed and now trembling old lady down
the path again and around by the other
way to the house, leaving Anthony
standing where she had forsaken him,
astonished and indignant.
He was at loss to know what could
possibly be the matter. He always
laughed at people when they fell; they
looked so ridiculous that he could not
help it. If they hurt themselves very
badly he would help them and be handy
and considerate after his laugh was
over. Had Miss Cornelia rolled to the
bottom of the slope and broken her leg,
he would have gone for a shutter and
have helped to lay her upon it and to
bear her homo with more care and eff
cheney than most men, but he would
have laughed at the grotesque figure she
cut during the tumble. But she had
not hurt herself at all, and because of
his natural appreciation of the absurdity
of her aspect Mrs. Beverley had treated
him in way which, if he did not quite
comprehend, he disliked intensely. The
old lady was as inimical to him now as
ever, he told himself morOsely, and in
stead of blaming himself he blamed her
and detested her more than ever.

FELL INTO The TRAP.
Further Details of the Bloody Conflict at
Bolivar

TRINIDAD, w. l., Aug. 1E.-Further
particulars have been received here of the
bloody and decisive battle at Ciudad
Bolivar, in Venezuela.
The government troops numbered in
the neighborhood of 1 300 men, while the
Legalistas, under Hernandez and Gil,
numbered between 3, 900 and 1000
Considerable finesse was exhibited by
Legalista commanders. A considerable
force was sent up to attack the Govern
mentals in their entertainments. After
a sharp engagement they retired, appar-
emily in great disorder.
The Governmentals fell rapidly into the
trap which had been prepared for them.
Seeing the foe in full retreat. they left
the shelter of their intrenchments deter
mined to crush the Legalistas.
This was the opportunity for which
Hernandez and Gil had been waiting.
No sooner had the governmentals got
fairly on the plains outside of the city
than they were confronted by the Lega-
lista reserves, which outnumbered their
forces in the field, and We're soon holly
engaged.
Hernandez had stationed number of
sharpshooters in advantageous positions,
and they kept up a calling fire on the
enemy, picking off their officers. 1t was
here that the three generals were killed,
and many field officers were also killed
and wounded.
The first attacking column was also
, quickly reformed and joined in the bat
tie.
The Governmentals realized that they
had made mistake in daring Il fight on
the plains and, pressed back by numbers,
began a retreat.
Then the decisive blow of the battle was

kept in reserve. Now it was thrown with
tremendous effect on the broken ranks of
the GOvcrnmentalS.
They were thrown into complete con
fusion. The retreat became Il rout, and
the Governmrntals were swept practically
out of existence as an organized army

The kentucky Girl Whom lie Loved but
Who Preferred Another.
Mr. +. i. BOSwOrth, brother to Mrs.
Mary l.. Todd, tells the following in
teresting story:
Gen. William Henry Harrison. the
grandfather of our chief executive, Wis
tied Frankfort, Ky, when 20 years of
age. and there surrendered his heart to
the bright eyes of Miss Monarchy Fen
wick, one of the brwitching maidens of
the infant city. He did not prosper in
his woOinG, but the impression was, to
Il tender degree, lasting. Upon taking
his leave he put ring upon her finger
with these unconsciously prophetic
words: "Monarchy, when l am prcsi-
dent of the United States send this ring
to me with any request you may have
to make, and will grant whatever You
ask if it is in my power" Smiling at
the jest she took the valuable circlct
and placed it among her treasures.
When she next saw her old admircr she
was the wife of Judge Samuel Todd, a
wealthy and prominent citizen, and
had become n famous houScllccpcr of
wide hospitality. He had been elected
president of the United States. and was
lral ceremonies. Accepting her invita-
ton to dine the distinguished guest
was seen at his best. The presidential
suite comprised twelve persons, some
in carriages, others on horseback. and
the village was stirred throughout at
the invasion.
Among other good things on the
table was q molaSScs-c cured ham which
had been buried for nine years in wood
| ashes. President Harrison partook
freely of this ham, and pronounced it
the sweetest he had ever tasted. Call
ing her two boys to his side, he put an
| arm around each and said: Monarchy,
here are your boys, but where are your
girls?" She had no girls. Her hus-
bands daughter by previous marriage
was in after years known as "Siste1
Gabrielle" of St. GATHERINGS Acadamy
at Lexington. The ring which is a
cluster of seven garnet stones set in
gold, is now in the possession of Mrs
Mary L. Todd, daughter-in-law of the
M onarchy who was the sweetheart OF
the first President Harrison.
