The PrvdigaI Daughter.

A favorite wall that periodically goes
the rounds of the press and platform
is against the social discrimination made
between erring men and erring women.
"a single standard for men and wo-
men" is the cry, "let us have as much
the reformers demand. A sample of
this sort of slush is the following, which
the state press is zealously circulating:
The prodigal son may return, but
how about the prodigal daughter? As
far as the world is concerned, there is
no mercy for the prodigal daughter.
Breathe not her name within the pre-
cincts of society. Keep her out; push
her to suicides grave appeasing your
righteous Indignation, return to petting
and carressing the dear boy" who has
made start to get back to the path of
rectitude. Ten to one he never comes
back. He knows he can sin and still
keep his place in society.
From a sentimental standpoint it
seems too bad that the son may sin
and be forgiven, while if the daughter
errs she is doomed. Yet, as matter
of fact, the great and only victim of
this memorable social law is the son
who sins and sins again to his own IN
doing, knowing that he will always find
sympathy and succor even in his wild
est follies. But the standard by which
woman is judged, harsh though it may
seem, is mercifully her monitor and her
guardian angel forever. Morality and
society have happily decreed that
woman must be modes gentle and pure
and have prescribed certain other de-
tails to contraN lie, whichmeans theI oss
of all that is held dearest ON earth and
during heaven. The result is that wo-
men are bred in the knowledge that
"the wages of sin is death" and they |
come to look upon sin as abhorrent, |
impossible, iuconceivable. 1t may seem |
rude to suggest that women are ever
good because it is conventional, and |
yet one must believe that woman is not |
exempt from susceptibility to evil in
fuences since so many sacrifice them
selves in the face of the memorable de-
cree that consigns them to endless
shame and infamy. If the present stern
moral law is any incentative-an who
can doubt that it is?-to women to
avoid and abhor temptation then this
law ought to be preserved and sancti-
fled. But it is the veriest twaddle to
talk of that injustice that is done wo-
man in requiring her to maintain a
standard different from mans This
alleged injustice is a merciful and say
ing grace for woman while it is mans
greatest misfortune and induccment to
profigate living. A virtuous life is the
highest blessing that can come to man
kind and the DEGREES that influence such
q life are not unjust-they are divine.

A political party has no more need Of
boss than railway system has of 6
thief at its head. Washington, Jeffer,
son, Clay, Sumner and Lincoln were
leaders and honored the republic by
upholding its welfare. But bosses are
birds of another feather.
To-day public sentiment in all par
ties is overwhelmingly against bossism;
it is weary of being misled by selfish
purpose, of being misgoverned by mech
anism. The born leader in any party
who recognizes this fact and acts upon
it will have big following among the
masses.

The Ruined California Grape Crop.

The partial loss of the grape crop
this year, caused by the heavy rains, is
estimated to exceed Sl,0O0,O00. Farm
ers and vineyards all over the north
ern part of the State have suffered.
While this is true, it is equally Il fact
that lost and failing strength may be
restored by the persistent, systematic
use of the great national tonic, Hostel
ter,s Stomach Bitters, which renews
and tones the activity of the stomach,
liver and the bowels, counteracts ten
dency to rheumatism and kidney COM
plant, and prevents malarial disorders.
After exhausting diseases have run
their course, recovery is greatly accel-
Grated by the use of the Bitters, which
improves appetite and imparts renewed
vieor to the debilitated physique.

singular cause-it resulted from grow

he was six feet and two inches in height
and to his remarkable growth his death
was attributed by the physicians, as he
apparently had no disease.

WILL ALLOW THE S2,0OO,0O0.
Col. Lewis Believes Congress Will Make Ten
 nessee River improvement Appropriation.
Special to The Age-Herald:


 Decatur, Jan. 19-In an interview with Col. Harvey Lewis, superintendent of the American Oak Extract company, of this place, in reference to the Tennessee river convention at Chattanooga last week, the colonel said:
 "In my opinion congress will allow the s2O0O,000 for the improvement of the Ten nessee. If this amount spent on im- proving the river it would be navigable the year round and would be worth more to Decatur than forty railroads. In order to put the river in navigable condition the year round it will be necessary to put in system of slack water navigation. Nature has given us one of the most beautiful and useful rivers in the United States, and by the aid of man 1t can be made one of the greatest commercial rivers in the land" Col. Lewis, through his company is large ly interested in river navigation and is lend ing all his aid and influence to the scheme He represented New Decatur as delegate to the convention last week.

DEATH OF DIR. W. H. R0BB.
Passed Away Wednesday Night at the Rote
 Albert in Selma.
Special to The Age-Herald.

Selma, Jan. 13.-At the Hotel Albert last night about 10 o'clock Dr. w. H. Robb died of heart trouble. Dr. Robb was promi- nent physcian of Amsterdam, N. r., and several months ago had an operation per- formed for appendicitis. On recovering he found his heart slightly affected and de- cided to seek quiet and rest in the south.
 He was the friend and family physician of George Van Buren who has large lum- Der interests at Fulton on the Mobile and Birmingham railroad and MT. Van Buren persuaded him to come to Selma. Accom- panied by this wife he came here about month ago and was delighted with the cli- mate and his surroundings.
 Christmas Dr. Robb went down to Full ton to spend the holiday season with MT. Van Buren. The weather was exceedingly rainy and disagreeable and he caught cold which settled his lungs. He returned to the city and at the Albert received every attention and all the aid that medical science could give. He was 54 years old and has a son at Columbia college.
 The remains were carried to New York this afternoon, members of the local board of health acting as pail bearers.

PURSUED BY BLO0DH0UNDS.
Escaped Prisoners Captured By Guards After a
 Long Chase.
Special to The Age-Herald.


 Wetumpka, Jan. 13.-At about 10 o'clock yesterday two negroes, recently sent to the walls from Montgomery county, made their escape. They were cutting wood near a swamp, when few bounds hid them com pletely in thick undergrowth.
 This occurred about a mile from the prison. In short while dogs were put on the trail and one of the negroes was soon compelled to climb tree for safety. He was caught about five miles above We- tumpka on the east side of the Coosa river. The dogs were then brought back and put on the trail of1the other one.
 From near midday till dark the dogs were in full cry, and the horses, ridden in pur- suit, were kept at a gallop. Horses, men and dogs were almost exhaused when D. M. Mcintosh, Will Trapp and MT. Pearce, who were in charge of the dogs, heard them come to a bay. The man had taken refuge in a canebrake, eight miles from town, and was standing in water waist deep, fighting off the dogs, which were swimming thick around him when McIn- tosh waded in to where the negro was and brought him out.

REPUBLICAN MASS NEE IN,.
Politics Lvening Up in DeKalb County
 Baptist-Campbeite Debate.
Special to The Age-Herald:


 Fort Payne, Jan. 13.-The republicans held mass meeting at this place on the 11th to elect delegates to district conven- tion which is to be held at Attala for the purpose of nominating a circuit judge for this district. w. H. Standfer, of Gadsden, who is a candidate for the nomination, was present and addressed the meeting In his speech he intimated that the populists of this district would indorse the republican nominee MT. Standifer seems to have the united support of his party in this and ad- joining counties and will doubtless be nom- mated.
 There promises to be a warm contest be- tween Judge Bilbro and ex-Judge Talley for the democratic nomination. Talley was removed from office In 1895 for compliclty in the Shelton-Ross case at Scottsboro. He still has many warm friends throughout the district and will give Judge Bilbro a close race for the nomination.
 Whitlock, Baptist, and Shrigley, Camp bcllite, are holding a joint debate here on the doctrines of their respective churches. The discussion began the 18th and will end the 18th. Good-sized audiences have been present each day.

 note that the certificate in the back of the book of assessment for 1892 made by the chairman of the board of county commits sioners contains the correct amount of taxes chargeable to the collector for both state and county, and that he had been correctly charged with the county tax. in accordance with this certificate.
 It seems that the judge of probate in making his abstract of this years assess ment to the auditor, took the footings of the reeapitulation as shown by this book, which does not contain the aforesaid sup- plemental assessment, and is not in ac- cord with the certificate before mentioned.
