The news & observer. [volume] (Raleigh, N.C.) 1894-current, 1897-03-23

Banks compress their business into
reasonable hours and pay good wages
to their clerks, and so all the business
interests of the country can be COM
pressed into ten hours of labor and no
one will suffer.
There is certain amount of buying
and selling to be done and it can be
done in such hours as will not take the
emphasis from human life and place
it where the wrong will be an increasing
one. When we face him who put such
emphasis upon humanity that he suf-
fered to redeem it and purify it, how
shall we stand if we have moved the
Masters sacred mark and put it upon
dividends? The hand consecrated by
suffering for humanity, how will it smite
the one that has been dedicated to gain. -

CHAPTER VII.
HOW LOLA HEARD THE NEWS.

The news that Pierre Turrian was
alive did not reach Lola at New York,
owing to mischance. Sir Jaffray and
she arrived there some days later than
they had planned and not until the
evening of the day before that'on which
they were booked 30 sail.
The letters were thus thrust away to
be read ON board the steamer, and in
the confusion the postscript was over
looked.
Had she known the news Lola would
have turned back at any risk and have
arranged to prolong an experience which
had been the brightest of her life.
She had never dreamed that marriage
with Sir Jaffray would bring the hap
piness to her which she had found in it.
She had married him from motives
which were purely worldly and selfish.
She had TO make position. She loved
ease and luxury. She was done with love
and sentiment, and she chose husband
as a man might choose profession,
because it gave her all that she wanted
with the least personal effort and diff

is the shrewdest who fetches the biggest
price," had been one of her favorite
opinions, and she was glad that she had
been able to marry where the man
would pay so freely and where he per-
sonally was not undesirable.
But she had made one miscalculation
in her plans
She was a woman whose heart was
not dead, as she believed. but rather
had never been quickened into life.
She had imagined that she could go
through life as sort Of Unconditional
lay figure by the side of husband
whom she did not love, suffering his
caresses and endearments, but not re-
turning them or at most paying with
simulated affection for the comforts
with which he would surround her.
But in her there were no neutral tints
She must love or hate.
Sir Jaffray' nature fired her, and the
more she endeavored to assure herself
of her own GOODNESS of heart the more
was she moved by him. The very in
difference which she affected helped to
overcome her. She could not be indif-

PRISONERS IN JAIL.

The following prisoners are in jail
awaiting trial at the next term OF the
court of general sessions, which convenes
on Monday, November1.
Bob Perkins, committed from Bull
locks Creek township, charged with as
sault and battery with intent to kill.
Gus Wilson, alias Gus Falls, committed
from Bethel township, on the charge OF
murder.
Dennis Feemster, committed from Bull
locks Creek township, on the charge OF
arson.
George West, committed from York
township, on the charge of burglary.
Richard Walker, committed from Ca
tawba township, on the charge of murder.
Arthur Neal, committed from Catawba
township, on the charge of housebreak :
ing.
Monroe Rawlinson, committed from
Fort Mill township, on the charge OF
housebreaking and larceny.
William Davie, committed from Be-
thesda township, on the charge of assault
and battery with intent to kill.
All of the prisoners above named are
colored except West. From what is
known about it, the murder case of Rich
ard Walker is not especially seriously.
The case of Gus Wilson, however, is rath-
er different. The facts appear to be
against him, and unless he makes a much
better showing than now seems to be like
ly, he will have trouble.

more thought to the liquor question than
the preachers of the state. What the edi-
tors know and think about the matter, is
known of all men without even the ask
ing. But the only method of getting a
symposium of what the preachers know
and think, is that adopted by Governor
Ellerbe. That many of the preachers
will be voluminous in their remarks upon
such an important subject, is naturally to
be expected; and when we think of the
governor having to wade through it all,
we can't help being impressed with GER
tain sense of hunor. But, at the same
time, we confess that he will not be called
upon to read much that will not be worth
the time and trouble, and after he COM
pletes the whole task, he will be the best
qualified man in the state to deal with the
problem before him. He is evidently in
earnest.
