Prettyman VIII BE Hanged.
pecinl to Evening journal

Special to Evening Journal.
GEORGETOWN, June 1J.-Funeral Di-
rector David P. Prettyman, Of Seaford,
is now in Jail here, having been com
mitted without bail to await the action
of the Sussex county grand jury in
October, on the charge of feloniously
assaulting the little daughter of Andrew
Richards, of Seaford.
1t is believed that the outcome of the
case will be that Exhorter Prettyman
will be hanged. Testimony against him
seems to be powerful while his defence is
very weak His sudden departure from
Seaford soon after the crime is also
looked upon as strong prosecution evi-
dence.
Although little sympathy is expressed
for Prettyman, the grave affair has
caused horror and excitement in this
quiet community.

The Sensible Woman.

A sensible woman begins very early
in life to show her prevailing charar' :.
lstic. As child she can be reas
into obedience when abe canuo, i
coaxed or driven, aud, though it would
be idle to attach undue Importance to
tue bachelors opinions, it is wise to re.
member that wise impulses may he
changed to bad ones byimproper train
ing.
The sensible woman does not allow
disqualification to persuade her to do
that which is contrary to reason or
sound Judgment. She never loves a
man SO dearly, Notwithstanding his bad
habits, which she despises, that "she
cannot give him up" Her good sense
tells her that love Is short-sighted un-
less led on respect, and also that an af-
lection whichis weaker than a bad habit
is scarcely worth having.
The sensible woman never does a
thing simply because every one else 10
doing it, but because she has decided
that sho may safely do it. She caFes
just enough about the opinion OF her
nelghbors and none too much.
