GOOD ADVICE.
Chaplain Wright Urges Men to
Take Their Bearings in their
Best Moods.

A "home letter" written by
Rev. Carroll Q. Wright, Chaplain
OF the u. S. Steamship Minneapo-
lis, as part of the story of the
first cruise of that vessel last
February, contains sound and in
spring advice to the crew Of his
vessel for right and God fearing
life. A printed copy Of the letter
was seen at the home Of Mr.. John
E. Miles, the father-in-law Of Mr..
Wright. who with his wife is now
visiting this city, and as the SUBJ
ject-matter is as applicable to land
lubbers as to the "middies," few
excerpts were taken for their bene-
fit.
"The bright side is oftener true
than the black side. Better take
your bearings when you are in
your best moods. We are Great
ures of moods. Don't measure
yourself and God and the world
when you are shriveled up with
bitterness, or twisted with indiges
ton. or writhing with conscience
ache. or seething with anger. At
such times let US suspend all i'm
portant decisions-we're not big
enough at such times to establish
the principles Of wondrous heart,
nor to fix the bounds and paint
the hues of a marvellous life, nor

indite the creed of an eternal soul,
nor set the pace Of a great career,
nor decide the character Of the
Almighty God. For such impor-
tant decisions one needs to be in
the best possible trim, just as he
does to play a successful athletic
game, just as when the speed record
of the minneapolis" was to be
made up, a moment was chosen
when she was in her best mood.
So let US seize the very best and
brightest moments we experience
in which to form opinions on the
greatest things--God. soul, man.
kind, civil government, morality,
love and a thousand other ques-
tons that press upon us. And
when one of these better tempers
is mellowing and clearing your
mind, I do fervently pray that
you may decide to champion
every good cause; to be an en-
thusiastic citizen as we'll as SER
servant of the United States; to
attend the worship Of the Almigh-
ty God on Sunday; to frown upon
and fatty rebuke all nasty speech,
unpatriotic utterances and the
crimes of lying, theft, gambling
and profane swearing"
A Leautiful prayer was also
written on the occasion by Mr..
Wright and printed on card for
the men to commit to memory.

encroached on the roadway as to
barely leave room for :. vehicle to
pass, and in numerous places the
holes and ruts are so deep as to
make it dangerous to travel over
them. There will be an accident
and injury on this road at night
unless steps are taken at once to
repair it. Why this beautiful
walk and drive, once the most
popular pleasure resort around the
city, should be so neglected and
uncared for. is mystery which
not only the citizens have fire.
quently asked each other, but
which strangers have often COM
mented on and considered an evil
dence Of Frankfort's shiftlessness
and general indifference to waste
and ruin. A few days work by
the workhouse gang in widening
the narrow points and spreading
broken rock on the road, and re-
pairing the wooden walk way as
far as it goes, would be a trifling
cost in comparison to the pleasure
such improvements would bring,
and the amount, perhaps, this
might save the city in a suit for
damages.

he Speaks at a Banquet of the
Importance of Pacific Commerce.
TRENTON, n. j., Feb. 23.-At the
annual banquet Of the Trenton
Board Of Trade last night, the Hon.
Lorin A. Thurston, Hawaiian
minister of the United States, res
pended to the toast, "The Com
mercial Control Of the Pacific"
After expressing his pride in re-
presenting the youngest republic
in the world, Mr.. Thurston quoted
figures showing the magnitude
and the growth Of commerce in
the Pacific ocean. Not vessel, he
said, could 60 across the Pacific
ocean without stopping at Hawaii
for coal. The great nations are
making strides in substituting the
traffic Of the Pacific. Canada has
recognized the value of the COM
merce of the Pacific and has start
ed four steamship services from
Vancouver's and every effort is
being made to push traffic. Mr..
Thurston said one Of the means of
establishing closer relations with
Hawaii was by building the pro-
posed cable. This he earnestly
advocated.

GORDON A FREE MAN
DISCHARGED FROM CUSTODY YES
TERDAY BY JUDGE THOMPSON.
The Decision Greeted with Cheers by
Room-The Judges Reasons.

LOUISVILLE, May 9.-Fulton Gordon, the
slayer of his wife and Archie Dixon Brown,
is free man. He was discharged to-day
"as an object lesson TO other adulterers"
The City Court was crowded this morning
when the case was called. Argument was
promptly begun by Prosecuting Attorney
Thurman, who. after reviewing the case
at some length, endeavored to show the
court that Gordons crime nothing less
than deliberate murder. Mr.. Thurman was
followed by attorney Shields for the de-
fense, who asked the dismissal of the pris-
oner on the grounds of justifiable homicide
Then Mr.. Scott, who represents Governor
Brown in the prosecution, arose and made
a vigorous arraignment of Gordon, pictur-
ing in glowing colors the character and
qualities of Archie Brown.
After arguments were completed and the
case closed Judge Thompson announced
that he could not hold the prisoner, and
that he would discharge him, as an object
lesson to other adulterers. Never was
crowd more demonstrative in its apprecia-
ton than was the immense throng in the
Police Court when Judge Thompson an
nounced in clear tone the verdict in the
case. Cheer after cheer went up, and
hand after hand was thrust out TO the
judge to show how much his verdict was
appreciated. There was evidently not
soul in the court. save the attorneys for
the prosecution and perhaps some friends
of the dead man, but was pleased with the
verdict. When the judge had finished and
hardly before the last word had fallen
from his lips, the cheering began, which
continued fully twenty minutes. In vain
did the bailiff endeavor TO restore order
but it was of no avail, and not until the
vast throng had departed from the room
was order restored. and even after reach
ing the streets the cheering was kept up.
In explanation the judge said that there
was no evidence of guilt Gordons part
but that the adulterer axa aduteress stood
on the verge of an abyss OF ruin and
death, and that their fate only what
could be expected. Thus ends the last
chapter to the most sensational TRAGEDY in
the history of Kentucky.
