RUNAWAY HERREILc REEl


- - d. kSO00 4AMxO8
Some few days ago letter arrived |
1t the residence of Mr.. and Mrs. o. |
b. Creel, us Twenty-second street. |
from San Antonio. Texas. The
writer was none other than their
l2-year-old son, aerrell Creel, who
ran away from home several months
ago. and who stated in the letter
that he would reach st. Louis
March 1. The letter was . very for
NAL one and the youngster concluded
BY saying that he would be pleased
to hear from his parents. and he in
them to be sure and get
their mail into the Missouri metrop-
oils by the first Of next month. He
evidently means to remain bat one
day. The epistle was invigorating
TO the little fellows parents. who
naturally have been constantly wor-
rying about him since the day he
went away. fearful lest something
disastrous might befall one Of such
tender years as he. And they con-
cluded not to answer herrell's COM
munication in writing. but instead it
was decided that Mr.. Creel should 20
to St. Louis and await the boys ap-
pearance at the postoffice and there
try and induce him to return home.
With q light heart and great antici-
pations Mr.. Creel departed last even
ing for the Missouri metropolis to
hunt down his long lost child.
Nearly seven months have elapsed
since Herrell left home. 1t was one
pleasant August day that he COM
planned about doing some little
chores for his mother, as boys gen.
orally do. He was given a proper
answer.
"I'm going away from here; that's
what I'll do" replied Herrell with q
manful air.
And the hoy went.
Far from the thoughts of his par
ents, however, was the idea
that he meant what he said when
he sauntered away from the Twenty
second street home that August day.
When he did not return ut night the
reason was suspected, but with a
great deal Of surprise. Inquiry was
made of surrounding cities, as it was
thought the little fellow would not
60 far, anyway. But no trace of him
could be found. Outside places were
communicated with and it was event.
ually learned that Herrell was To-
Gated at Burlington, Iowa. and had
secured q position as belIboy in q
hotel. Mr.. Creel started in quest of
the boy. but when he reached Bur-
iington the youngster had flown.
1t was . long time afterward that
Mr.. and Mrs. Creel heard of Herrell's
being down in New Orleans, where .
certain Rock Island gentleman met
the youthful tourist on the street,
and in reply to some questions was
given the assurance that the younger
Mr.. Creel was enjoying life md far
ing rs well as could be expecsed uu-
der the circumstances. Then track
was lost of Herrell, who. it is sup
posed, visited all the southern cities
until he finally landed in San Anto-
MO. Texas. Here thought of home
overcome the boy and he wrote his
parents the letter that prompted Mr..
Creel in going to St. Louis for the
purpose of meeting Herrell and
| pleading with him to return home.
1t is not very often that q youngster
OF IL years musters up enough cour-
age to play such game. When
herrell left home he took nothing
but what was on his back and went
withouta penny in his pockets.

Are the Moslems Cruel?

II the treatment of non Moslems in
fslamic countries We're compared with that
OF non Christians in Christian countries,
is would be found that the balance of hu-
nanity, generally speaking, inclines in
favor OF Islam. From the earliest times
Moslem sovereigns made no distinction
between their subjects on the ground Of
faith or creed, and Christians and Jews
have held important Offices in common
with Moslens. Under the Mogul en-
perors Of Delhi Hipdocs commanded arm
les, administered provinces and sat in the
councils Of the empire. When were the
Catholics and jews emsncipated in Eng
land? And even in the present times can
it he said that in no Christian empire rul
ing over mixed nationalities and creeds is
any distinction made of creed, color or
race.
Cruelties occur in Moslem countries, as
they occur among Christians. But while
we hear so much about the former do we
hear one word of reprobation about the
latter? The cruel poisoning of several
thousand Indians in South America, the
massacres of the Yomad Turkomans, tho
terrible persecution and deportation of
several millions Of Jews in Russia, the
fiaying alive of negroes, the rolling of ne
crosses in spiked barrels, are passed by
Moslems may be impaled and burned alive
by Christians. their women outraged and
their children killed. their villages reduced
to ashes, and the hysterical brotherhood
whose disordered brains saw in Albanian
scarecrows gibbeted Bulgarians remains
voiceless. Century.

There is a hospital in the city of New York

me WAS what the nurse told the doctor
that after every child was furnished with
a doll there were number left, and the
poor women dying with consumption asked
II each might have a doll. They all want
ed them, and 10 each the dolls were given,
and the nurse said she could not have
dreamed OF their being such a comfort 10

The Causes of VagabOnda.Ce.

The principal causes or sources of vaga
bondage, as l understand them, may be
briefly recapitulated:
First. love of liquor.
Second. Wandcrlust, the love of wan.
dering.
Third.-The county Jail, owing to the
promiscuous herding of boys and homeless
wanderers with criminals
Fourth.-The tough and rough element
in villages and towns
Fifth.-The comparatively innocent but
misguided pupils of the reform school.
Though not, properly speaking, a cause
of vagabondage, the acknowledgements of
law is its nursing mother and misguided
and misapplied charity it's base of opera
tions. The tramp evil is not so much a
disease as symptom of public ill health.
AS such, and all the more because it is
such, 1t deserves to be more thoroughly
Investigated, more reasonably apprehend-
cd, and more boldly treated.

The prettiest affair that has taken place
in this city for some time, took place in the
Universalist church. Wednesday evening,
and by special request was to have been
repeated again, last evening only for the
bad weather The occasion was the mar
rage of Tiny Mite, tho eldest daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Awful Little, to MIR Tom
Thumb. The church was very handsomely
decorated for the occasion, which was
filled with spectators from Augusta,
Hallowell and Gardiner. Master Willie
Johnson was the officiating clergyman.
and little Miss Huntington was the bride,
while Master Joseph Bodwell acted as
groom. There were six ushers, Harold
Wood and Lee Dinsmore being the head
ones. The invited guests consisted of
about 80 young boys and girls from to 6
years OF age. After the marriage cere-
monies We're over, the bride and groom,
followed by the maids of honor and the in
vited guests, went into the vestry of the
church, where reception was given, and
where the bride and groom had the pleas
ure OF shaking hands with all of the in
vited guests. 1t is hoped by everybody
that it may be repeated in the near future.
