"sYxPArHY."

About the greatest curse Of u.
day is the sympathy" racket that
Is worked on The case OF nearly ev-
cry criminal that appears, no mat.
ter how cold The deed. 1t has be-
come so common that it stands out
as one of The most corrupting in.
fluences that abound, and to a
great degree is responsible for the
lawIessness that exists. The per.
petrator Of an unprovoked crime
has no right to sympathy, and
should receive the most extreme
punishment allowed by law, and
that promptly. In no other way
can there be placed any security
on life or the morals Of our coun.
try subserved. There are none Of
our criminal laws too severe, and
whenever criminal is found to be
transgressor, he should suffer &C.
cordingly. Down with all sympa.
Thy and so-called "chrlsiian chari-
.y" rot when 1t in the least inter.
feres with the execution cf our
criminal laws.
The above from The Pascagoula
DEMocRAT,SrAR, has The true ring,
and affords food for reflection to
law.abiding people throughout the
State. We have often been struck
with the fact hat cold.blooded and
unprovoked crime frequently, We
may say, usually begets "sympa.
thy" and support from people
whose lives aud professions are
such that those who believe the
greatest safety to ''life, liberty and
property" lies in the prompt and
efficient administration Of the
criminal law, would naturally ex.
pect TO find them on he other
side. The DEMOCRAT STAR very
correctly says that such conduct is
largely responsible for lawlessness.
Ii is notable that the criminal class
never divide. When a man has
been convicted of a violation of
law himself The rule is that he ev.
er after finds excuse and jnstifica-
ton for every crime committed no
matter how atrOciOus.
The law-abiding people of every
community lar Outnumber the
other class, and should stand 10.
gelher, shoulder 10 shoulder, tor
the enforce ment of the law. Sym
pa,hy Tor criminals and their fami.
lies should cease. Deserved pun
ishment would then usually be
meled out and crime would rapid.

RIBBONS or Blue AND GRAY.
By JOHN N. aiLLIARD.

Garlands and wreaths Of flowers,
Sweet roses Of white and red,
Tenderly woman laid them
On the graves of the unknown dead
She knew not which side they fought
For the past lives not to-day,
And with loving hands she tied each wreatl
With ribbons Of blue and gray.
Softly the languid southern breeze
Kisses the long grave-grass,
And murmurs requiem sad and sweet
To the mourners as they pass
Sad-faced women and white-haired men,
Whose loved ones fell in the fray,
Spread DER the mounds their flowers, tied
With ribbons OF blue and gray.
Many soldier lies at rest
In grave unidentified,
These are the unknown heroes
Who rushed to the front-and died
But it matters not which side they fought
All feuds are forgotten to-day,
AS they deck the graves with flowers, tied
With ribbons of blue and gray.
Twas years ago they fought and fell,
They boys of the gray and blue,
Both died for what they deemed the right,
Both were heroes, brave and true;
And, as they sleep in their silent graves
In the North or the South to-day,
Let us strew them DER with flowers, tied
With ribbons of blue and gray.

Herse with IN Artificial Eye.

A fine-looking brown gelding
owned by DIR. Walter W. White,
had one OF his eyes injured about
two years ago, says The Baltimore
American, and gradually lost the
sight IN that optic. The case was
brought to ihe attention Of DR..
Ward, the Stale veterinarian, some
weeks ago. Ii is a difficult matter
to secure artificial eyes for horses
that will not warp, break or fall
out. DR.. Ward knew that the
proper article could be procured in
England, and in reply TO a letter
the delicate piece OF fcompound was
received a few days ago. II ia
made OF composition Of vulcanite
and will not change color or be.
come easily injured. Several
days ago Dr.. Ward drled up the
injured eye, and placed a small
circular piece Of vulcanite in the
socket, SO as tO accustom the
horse to The new sensation. The
imported eye was put in and Dr.
Ward put a few drops Of oil on the
disk.like arrangement and with
the aid oil a lancet raised the eye
lids and placed the eye in position
The artificial adornment looks ex
ceedingiy natural.

The microbes or spores concen.
trale at a level little above the
ground, exactly as one may observe
dust of carriages in the road in a
thick horizontal layer settle on a
warm, moist evening; then there
is no lifting by ascending air cur
rents, but a sort of beating down
TO a low level, and their Conference
is caused by a disposition of vapor
on the dust particles as the air
cOols.
Thus, over dried marsh there
would lie great condensation of mi.
crobes or spores which could no
longer disperse. They would gath.
er about the height of a mans
head, just as we see a ground fog
in still, moist air after a warm day
in autumn. The organisms were
given off while the surface Of The
ground was warm, and they accum-
ulate a little above it as radiation
carries off the heat and cools the
lowest stratum of air.
About sunset the earth is still
warm and exhales moisture into
The air aboveit, and with the earth
vapor organisms are largely given
oft. The human body is at that
time most susceptible 10 their ac-

inner surfaces OF the throat, and
these c0ngested inner surfaces fav-

in with the breath.
Later in the night The organisms
have largely surk by their own
weight and that of deposited dew,
and, moreover, the cooled body Is
not so much open To the attack OF
germs remaining in the air.
