travel far before he ran across pumpel
named Lemley, on the Judge farm
from whom he took not only the coa'

the officers hove in sight, and he tool

n man named Mullinex, on the public
highway, near Pine Ridge school house
and being short of cash, dropped hi:

The result of the recent elections,
when carefully analysed and compared
with those of corresponding date in
political cycles, is not encouraging to
the cause of the free coinage of silver.
In six States-Ohio, Nebraska, Iowa,
Kentucky, Virginia, and Massachusetts,
the silver issue was made clear and
sharply defined in the elections of 1897.
In every one of those States the falling
off in Democrats votes as compared
with the preceding Presidential cleo
ton was greater than was the case in
the election of 1898, the year following
the Presidential election, in which gem
uine Democratic principles OF free trade
were the issue. The Democrats of
these six States in 1898 stuck to legiti-
mate Democratic issues, similar to those
of 1892, while in 1897 they reiterated
their free.siiver doctrines of 1896. The
result was that in Ohio they lost in 1897
16 percent of their vote OF the preced-
ing year against lost of IL per cent.
in 1898; in Iowa the loss in 1897 was
10 per cent, in 1898 II per cent. in Ken
lucky in 1897 the loss was IA per cent,
in 1894 (there being NO election in that
State in 1889 6 per cent; in Virginia
in 1897, 2s per cent, in 1893 81 per cent;
in Massachusetts in 1897 "a per cent,
in 1898 IL per cent; in Nebraska in 1897
a loss of 10 per cent, against an actual
gain of rs per cent, in 1898. 1t will
thus be seen that in every State where
the free coinage of silver was made a
distinct issue in the campaign of 1897
the Democrats lost greater percentage
of their votes than they did in the cor
responding year of 1898, when they
stuck to the legitimate Democratic
issues upon which they had won the
Presidential elections of 1892.

Hoyt's latest and best comedy "A
Contented Woman" will be seen here
at the Auditorium on Tuesday evening.
This production will be given here ex-
actly the same as it was given at ii oyt's
theatre New York and will doubtless
achieve similar results with Miss Belle
Archer, whose acting and comedy is
artistic to the minutest detail. In
Miss Archer. "a Contented Woman"
has found fitting delineator and one
who has done as much for the char
acter as the character has done for its
personator. The admirable company,
the elaborate scenic production, the
correct and handsome costumes have
been selected with view of giving the
play an adequate setting and the re-
suit has justified the outlay.

RECENTLY FROM CUBA.
DIR. C. n. Thomas Interviewed by a
Leader Reporter.

DR.. C. N. Thomas Interviewed by a
Leader Reporter.
Yesterday afternoon DR.. c. N.
Thomas, who recently spent several
months in Cuba, passed through the
city. The College Y. NJ. c. A. made ar
rangements to have him lecture on
Cuba at the College Chapel on Thurs
day evening of next week. DR.. Thomas,
comes very highly recommended as an
eloquent and forcible speaker. He has
lectured in several cities near here and
the press, as vel, as prominent citizens
speak in glowing terms about his lee
ture. Those who attsnd his lecture no
doubt will have rare opportunity of
hearing the Cuban situation discussed
in an intelligent manner by one who
can speak of his experience and obser-
walton.
In reply to the question whether
the suffering there is as great as re-
ported he said "The half has never
been told While was in the interior
of Cuba saw hundreds of children OF
both sexes naked and the inhabitants
on the verge of starvation, and the
longer the war continues the greater
will be the suffering"
"Did you see much suffering in Ha.
vanna?"
Not great deal. OF course, com.
mercial life in Hayana is very much
depressed. One would, however, hard
" realize that there is war in Cuba by
visiting Havana if it were not for the
thousands of Spanish soldiers who
parade the streets of the city"
"Can the Cubans hold out much
longer?"
"Yes, for many years to come. The
Cuban soldiers suffer less than any
other class on the island. Yellow
fever and smallpox does not affect
them as the Spanish. Furthermore
they are mostly in the extreme eastern
and western part of Cuba and have
plenty of fruit and meat and need little
clothing. They are determined not to
give up until they are free people.
Spanish promise of home rule is abso'
lutely out of the question. 1t is either
with them complete independence or
death. There never will be peace in
Cuba until they are free people"

Is This Christianity?

Christian Churches seem to DO got
ting farther from Christ every year.
That this is SO Ii borne out by the
following telegram from Trenton
New Jersey. The congregation re-
ferrsd to; and the minister who pre-
aides over the flock do not seem to DO
overcome with that meek and lowly
spirit which characterized the life
of him who was born IN a Manager:
@Miss Ray West. a member Of the
First Baptist Church and the daugh-
tor of a prominent and wealthy fami-
ly here walked out Of church last
night, branded by her fellow-mem-
bers % an 'habitual Liar and SANDER
err. She had been tried before the
Advisory Committee of the church for
circulating stories about the Pastor
Rev. Maurice Fixes, and had been
found guilty.
although many members of the
Committee had said in the meeting
that they believed the young woman's
intellect was impaired, the Committee
drafted resolutions intended to cut
her off from the fellowship of the
church.
And yet these Same people, who
would blacken the, character and
blight the life Of poor girl, who is
probably irresponsible for word or
act, pose as Christian reformers and
draw the line at kaleidoscope pictures
and even at nearly all kinds OF ath-
letic sports.
We will wager that there il not a
John L.. Sullivan, a j. J. Corbett,
Bob Fitzsimmons, nor even a Tom
Sharkey. in that congregation. II

woman would have had a champion,

WRITES OF JOURNALISM.
The Inventive Small hoy Holds Forth
on Newspapers Work -

bright little boy who att ends one OF
the city public schools was told by his
teacher few days ago to write an essay
on Journalism" says the Atlanta
Constitution, and the next day he
handed in the following: Journalism
IS the science of all sorts of journals.
There is a heap of kinds of journals.
Journals is q good thing 'cept when
they is not journals and then they is
just awful. My ma, she takes fashion
journal what is always full of pictures
Of horrid old maids with the ugliest
dresses on I ever saw. The fsshion
journal is heap gooder than the hot
journal, cause the hot journal stops
the train and the fashion journal starts
it. The fashion journal don't stop moth
in but the broken window light and
pas bank account.
"There is sheep journals and hog
journals and brass journals, too, and
pa has got a journal downtown at the
store and writes things in it about folks
he don't want to forget. Then we had
y woman t cooked for us named Sally
Journal. She was the funniest journal
I ever saw. She was a baldheaded
journal.
"They amt ne more journals that
know of.
"P. 81 forget to say that man
what puts grease on the car wheels is
called journalist" .
