HON + HAPPINESS.
[SanfOrd Express.


The true home is the happiest place
on earth. Around it cluster the
sweetest memories of life. AS far as
this life goes it can reach no further
than the ideal home. 1t is the inspi
ration of patriotism and has prompted
men to deeds of daring that read like
romance. 1t is related by Southern
writer that in some of the battles in
the rich Shenandoah valley the young
Virginians " fought like mad men"
against fearful odds. They were in
sight of their lovely homes and faced
fire and ball and shell to protect them
from the invader. That was patriotism
that commanded the admiration of
the world, but the thought of home
was at the bottom of it.
In these rapid days is not the home
idea too often lost sight of2 Is this
not especially the case in the great
cities of this country? New York has
its gilded and gorgeous palaces and it
has its myraids Of tenement houses,
but neither are paradises in which
angels might dwell. There is less real
home life to the square inch on that
island than any other city in America.
In summer many of its abodes are
veritable hells and at night the poorer
inhabitants have to flee to the parks in
search Of comfort and health. They
spend their days trying to keep soul
and body together. The rich are
busily engaged trying to accumulate
more wealth. There is probably no
more real happiness within the palace
gate than in the tenement.
In the pursuit of ambitions dream,
which, with the average American, is
to make money, too many forget the
ties of home. 1t was not always thus
and will not be SO always. We will
get over it after awhile under better
laws Then the wealth of the country
will be more evenly distributed and
the great middle class will be built up.
There will be fewer millionaires and
paupers less grasping, less greed, more
contentment, more Of the spirit Of
home life and more real homes.

Hoods Pills cure biliousness.
Will They Report? -?
TGa StOnia Gazette.

One of the most interesting features
of the approaching convention Of
editors in Greensboro will, beyond a
peradventure, be the report of the legis-
lative committee of five appointed at
Morganton last year to promote legis-
lative action on certain subjects of
interest to the Press Association. The
committees report of its experiences
with the late legislature ought to be
fraught with heavy fund of rare reml-
niscental entertainment. Road I'M
provement, arbor day observance,
collection of agricultural statistics,
amendments to the libel law law
these are the subjects, but there is no
reason why the Association should ex-
pect dull or monotonous line in the
committees account of how 1t was
able to secure the desired legislstion
on these subjects.

MEMORIES OF HIM,
FRANK l.. STANTON.

There are such memories Of him
About the place my eyes grow dim
With sudden tears whene'er l see
The mischief that he made for me
The band torn from my newest hat
And leaves from Shakespeare on the mat
Such memories Of him abound;
With tears and smiles glance around
Inc Uttered room. Strewn with his TOYS.
But no more echoing with the noise
Of his dear feet. Where was the art
Nherewith he climbed straight to my
heart?
Ills mothers sweet geraniums, tossed
And tumbled, all their beauty lost,
And here an album out of place,
And there sadly broken vase,
And where the sOrrowing sunlight shines
The tonsled morning glory vines.
Would he were here, with his sweet
looks;
He might have all my dearest books
TO tear in Acknowledgements, all,
For just his lightest footsteps fall,
For What is Shakespeare to the kiss
And clinging of the one | miss?

Exclaims thousands Of people who have
taken Hoods Sarsaparilla at this season

Of the medicine in giving them relief from
that tired feeling, waning appetite and

busy time attendant upon a large and
pressing business during the spring months

among the captains. He allowed disorderly
houses to run openly In his precinct while the
Lexow Committee was in session and when such
houses were closed up in other precincts The
fadt was made a matter OF record before the COM
mittee. Even after the police investigation
closed. the dsorderly houses in Eakinss precinct
were allowed to run openly, and they are open
yet. 1t must not be forgotten that Eakins was
implicated by testimony before the Lexow Com
mittee. Ex-Detective Shalvey testified that he
collected about $1,000 from disorderly houses,
policy shops and other places in the Twelfth Pre-
cnct and paid the money to Eakins while Ea-
kins was In command Of that precinct"
WHY EAKINS MAY BE FAVORED.
do you know Of any particular reason why
Commissioner Grant favors Captain Eakins?" Mr.
Moss asked
II do not" he replied. "unless 1t is because
Eakins is an old soldier. Possibly the Commits
sioner thinks that Eakins should have been al
lowed to retire on pension, as Chief Byrnes and
INSPECTOR Williams were. What would have been
the effect though. OF retiring Eakns In that way?
Other captains would point to him as the man
who ran his precinct in defiance OF the Lexow
Committee
Have the courts decided the suit Of Eakins
asking to be retired on pension?
There has been no decision by the Appellate
Court in the case. but do not think the Police
Board will wait for such decision. There VIII be
