From Innocence to Guilt.

, In a close dark prison two ac.
cused await their doom. Th
world judges one, and says his sill
Is beyond forgiveness, but tn,
laws of God ase often adverse tt
those of man. When we look in
to the dark abysses of sin and in
to the black chasms of crime anc
consider its dreadful course, we
linger on the brink, and drop a
tear, as weaker reason lies slain
under the sinister weapon of i'm
pulse. And as we raise our eyes
from time to eternity, we see writ
ten on every imaginary throne,
"never an effect without a cause. .
Whatever our fauks in life may
be, OF wheresoever, our infrm in
stabilities reside, 'tfs crime that s
due to them; who sits on her ra-
venous throne tenanted with a
fiendish soul.
The accused perhaps when boys
played together under the spread.
ing shade of the canopy that over
hung their bayou; lurked midst
the silent lagoonsg where their
clear images in the still water dis
closed to them like nymphs and
sprites; worshiped at the same
shrine the glen and meadow;
adored the same god-ambition.
But their recollections now are of |
a DIM ravine, where witch and
wizard haunt the neighboring
springs. They recall their moth |
ers' chidings for the tasks to them
allotted; their fathers chastise-
ments that on life's highway, |
might be to righteousness bent; |
their boyhood's happy days when
they led under the arches of the
woodland pines "iheir peasant
girl" and who in years to come
were to be as true to them as
Elaine who loved the knight of
old. The father as he visits his son
in his gloomy cell sees his boys
mental struggles with crime,-
that accursed hand, my sonl that
led by when a child over the
hillocks and plains--is the issue
Of this hour. Would that you
lad died before rea ching man
hoods stage! for that stigma Of
iishonor, the synonym of infamy
will ever remain indelible to my
memory.
Was it Fate or Providence that T.
ed then, to the ball? Twas Fate.
For pro vidence said: ''Take the
high roa d, and loiter not on tho
way, but proceed until you reach
he strand that lies before you."
But Fate, unconcerned said:
Whatever road you take, whether
'ugged or smooth, precipitate or
ligh, twill lead you to your des-
And Fate, without even
uggesting the directions to be
AIKEN, continues the pilgrimage
If her cruel mission. II. G.. p.

THE INVESTIGATING COMMITTEE.

The committee recently appointed
by the state Legislature to inquire in
TO the cause of the introduction of
| yellow fever to the shores of the Mis-
sissippl gulf coast last summer, and
who came here two weeks ago, first
Stopping at Bay st. LOUIS, on Tues
day submitted their report. 1t is of
length and contains considerable on
the subject, yet it Is not what was
/ reasonably anticipated to have been
so differently from all that has
been brought to bear Oh the matter,
and in direct conflict with all evl-
dence and common sense reasoning
advanced since the time of the trou-
BILE. The executive sessions Of the
committee were held in secret and
suspicion was created at the time.
The report would have that the fever
was imported from Guatemala last
April via New Orleans and carried
to Ocean Springs, declaring itself
five months later. Think what |
farcel What a reflection on the
side Five months to dis
cover yellow fever in their midst
would indeed be hard to bear against
laymen much less the professional
ly engaged. The report would free
Ship Island altogether as a medium
for transmitting the infection, and
where opinion has been universal in
regard TO all connections dwelled up
on by the committee, the report con-
Iradicts and would have us put to
light all those facts gathered for
weeks by local sources. And this
report the work of one weeks gavot-
ing by rail and water on free pass

,igation is commended. We apprt We

purpose which prompted it. The

Here is slam at early marriages
by an unknown slammer:

Here is slam at early marriages
by an unknown slammer:
A raw boy without dollar,
present or prospective, sparkling
a girl regularly and talking about
marrying, is a spectacle for gods
and men. He should be reason
ed with, and if he will not quit 1T
until he is able to support wife
aud to know who be loves; and
the difference between love and
chicken pox, he should be quaran-
tined or put in a convent erected
purposely for such cases. Nine
tenths of the early marriages are
the result OF green human calves
beng allowed to run at large in
the society pasture without yoke
on them. They marry and have
children before they do mustach-
es; they are fathers of twins be,
fore they are proprietors of two
pair of pants, and the little girls
they marry are old before they are
twenty. Occasionally one of these
gosling marriages turns out all
right, but it is clear case of
luck. If there was a law against
young galoots sparkling before they
cut their eye teeth, we suppose
the little cusses would evade it in
some way; but there ought to be
u sentiment against it.

BROKE UP REPUBLICAN RALLY.
County Candidates Routed at Ala
media by ORGANIZED Disturbers.

ALAMEDA, Oct. 27.-An organized at
tempt was made last night to break up
the Republican meeting at West End. 1t
is almost impossible to locate the perpe-
traitors of the offense, but they succeeded
in their efforts and stopped the speech
making before half of the programme had
been carried out. Clarence Patton. well
known character about the eastern end OF
town, was used by the conspirators to
carry out their plans. He was logged out
regardless of style, and when the meeting
opened was seated on the stage with the
candidates. He was d stranger to a West
End audience, and when during each in
Permission there were cries of "Pattoni
Pattoni" there were inquiries as to who
the individual was. 1t was whispered
about that he was an independent candi-
date for City Marshal. who was backed
up by the younger element. AS the calls
for Patton became more insistent the
chairman, all unconscious of the purpose,
introduced the young man to the audi
ence. Patton played his part well and
started to tell the crowd that he was a
candidate for Marshal, when his voice
was lost in the cheers that came from
those who had put up the job. The noise
lasted for over ten minutes. The county
candidates left the hall in disgust, and
when the noise subsidized Patton and his
friends were alone in the building.
