A Mother.

Up at she menagerie in Centrel Park
a big mother lion had just had three
baby lions. She was greatly charmed.
The keeper, in order that the babies
might have quiet time, built a box
in the corner Of the lion cage with a
hole in the side. For few days the
baby lions stayed in the box; but at
last they decided that that was very
stupid, and they spent their time run
ming in and out of the hole in the box.
This distressed their mother, for the
constant friction Of their pretty soft
coats against the side Of the box wore
their fur off; and, like all mothers,
Mother Lion was very anxious that
her babies should always look pretty.
It was evident to those who watched
her that she meant to put stop to
this destructive habit. One day last
week she lay with her eyes half
closed not far from the opening Of the
box. The trouble was that the three
babies were never inside of the box at
the same time. There was always one
outside, and this was the mother
problem. While she lay there, appa-
rently half asleep, 1.-THE babies rushed
in and out, playing tag. At one e1-
citing moment all three were in the
box at the same moment, and the
mother lion sprang quickly in front of
it and closed the hole with her back.
The babies squcaked and squcaled:
but the mother lion, an expression OF
peace on her face. slowly wagscd her
tail, evidently saying to herself. Il
rather think they will keep still now
for little while. -OutlooE.

A Romance Of Law.
Driven from home by the iron hand

Driven from home by the iron hand
of the law.
Fifteen years ago i. P Corbett,
young boy living in Sumter County,
was compelled to leave the State to
save himself from serving a sentence
in the State penal institution.
Allowed to return through the
mercy Of the law.
Truly the law is Janus like. Evil
it frowns upon with fierce face, but,
crime expiated, it burns smiling face
and allows the perpetrator under GER
tain circumstances to again hold up
his head in the world. Yesterday
Corbctt was permitted to return to
South Carolina, the sentence against
him having been wiped out by par
don from the governor.
The rather romantic circumstances
IN the case are as 1OIlOWS.
Twelve years ago, in 1886. Corbett,
then a lad Of but fifteen years, was
running small store on his fathers S
place in Sumter County. At an un-
guarded moment he permitted himself
to engage in the sale of whiskey and
was arrested on the charge. His
father declined to interfere in his be-
half, so angercd was he at his sons
violation Of the law, and, to escape
punishment, the boy ran away. In
his absence the case was tried before
Judge Kershaw and sealed sentence
lodged against him.
he first located in Colorado, where
he engaged III business quite success
fully. Later he moved to California,
where he met with continued success.
So exemplary was his conduct that he
was regarded as one of the best citi-
zens in his community. He was elect
ed a deacon in the Presbyterian
Church. He proved worthy of many
trusts imposed upon him.
The sequel is very pretty. His pa
rents, their hearts turning fondly to-
ward their boy in their declining years,
longed to see him once again and to
bless and forgive him and to breathe
their lives anew in the joyousness Of
his presence. Accordingly petition,
signed almost unanimously by the
people of the district, was forwarded
his excellcncy Gov. Ellerbe and re-
ceived by him yesterday through Col.
D. P. Duncan. AS soon as the gcver-
nor became acquainted with the true
inwardness of the case, he removed
that restraint and permitted that
mothers boy to come home again,
honored and not despised, citizen
and not a criminal, to receive her
blessing and fathers benediction.--

NOTABLE EXCEPTION.
The one notable exception to this
which has occurred in the last ITO
years is the Franco-German war.
France declared war before she struck
blow and in twenty days the Prus
slams we're in France. Six months
later they had captured Napoleon and
taken Paris.
The records of the British war Of
flee show that cause of secrecy in Al
of the 107 wars recorded in the last
century and three-quarters was the de-
sire to gain time by the suddenness Of
the attack. In twelve the desire was
to postpone as long as possible the ad-
mission Of a state Of hostility and
throw the responsibility on the other
power. In nine cases the sudden at
tack was made to anticipate the secret
designs of the enemy which had been
discovered through private sources Of
information.
Sixteen Of the first acts of hostility
we're raids or reprisals, four we're vio-
lations of neutrality on frontiers and
FIVE were acts done in aid Of other ma
tions whereby the nation aiding the
other slipped into war before it was
aware how far it had gone.
The war between Greece and Turkey
has not yet been declared, so far as
the Greeks are concerned, though
they have been very badly whipped.
CONDITIONS FAVORABLE FOR WAR.
The conditions in the United States
and Spain during the last three
years are just the kind that precede
and make war. The fires of passion
in both countries have been kindled
and sedulously famed to a fame by
the press and the politicians, and Of
the voices that have spoken only
few have been for peace. 1t was so
before the war between the States. In
that case there was sudden SOLDERING
of men as the ominous sound of the
first gun of Sumter echoed through
the land. Il was the calm before the
storm broke with all its fury. So we
have seen within the past ten days
sudden calm at Washington. The
voice of the jingo Congressman is
awed into stiffness and even the bla-
tant demagogue is circumspect for
once. There could be nothing more
ominous than the silence in which the
usually garrulous sat when it voted
fifty millions for the national defense.
In the words Of the inspired writer,
"There was no speech nor language,
but their voice is gone out through all
the earth" It recalls the memorable
words Of Governor Troup, of Georgia:
SThe argument is exhausted; we
rest on our arms" 1t is no wonder
that the spectacle impressed the
Mother Country and for once old Eng
land was proud Of her long-lost but IL
lustrious child.

About the April Snow.
Southern Christian ADVOCATE.

Brother Hizson I have read several
statements in the Atlrocate in regard
to the date Of the snow storm many
years ago. The time and circumstan-
ces connected are so we'll fixed in my
memery that they never will be for
gotten. Invent with friends to Church
on Sunday, the 18th Of April, 1S49.
1t was clear, pleasant morning, but
before We returned home it commenced
to snow, and it fell thick and fast.
Vegetation was far advanced. The
gentleman whose house | was 1T had Il

much afraid of freeze on Sunday
night that he had a good many colored
men to go over the field with long
ropes, each one holding the end of a
rope, and knock as much of the snow
from the wheat as possible in order to
save it. This with other things has
impressed it fully on my mind.

| would like to add my testimony as
to the date of the snow-Sunday.
April 18th, 1S49.
Saturday evening, the 14th, was
very warm and I dressed in suit of
yellow linen, saddled my horse, and
rode about six miles to call on my
best girl. I found her dressed in a
spring calico dress-and oh, how
sweet she did look! She and I, with
some girls who had called, strolled
down to Lynches River and spent the
afternoon gathering spring flowers,
which we found in abundance. We
returned to her fathers late in the
evening, and l spent the night.
The next morning, Sunday, 18th,
1 began to feel" uncomfortably cold,
and the girls began to laugh at my
"yaller'' linen. 1t soon began to
snow, and che longer it showed the
colder got, until could stand it no
longer. l saddled my horse and
mounted him, and what ludicrous
sight l must have cut-out in snow

best girl with others, standing on the
front portico laughing at me. 1 pull

miles and stopped at friends house
and changed my linen clothing for

With every drop of blood tingling,
America awaits the verdict.

The Tribune's oft repeated warning in
regard to Boulder's fire equipment. can
well be emphasized after the blaze of
this morning. The roads were heavy,
the house remote from the center of
town. The total destruction of a house
that catches fire under such circumstances
is inevitable. The equipment of at least
two carts, so that horses could be attach
ed, and standing contract for horses
with liveryman in the vicinity of the
hose houses would provide a certain
means of getting the fire apparatus to the
scene before the building becomes merely
memory. The expense of securing
horses at such infrequent intervals would
not be great, but however great, the
protection insured would amply justify
the outlay. The city is reaching size
when such extra provisions for getting
the apparatus to fire should be made,
and it can't be made too soon. n
