resolution was avoided Us though It
were inimical to his own life.
That was noble act on the part Of
David, who poured forth on the ground
the water which had nearly cost mems
life. The very thought that it might
have done so was enough to make it
sacrilege for him to drink it. He could
not take for selfish gra LITIGATION what
had been gained at so great peril. But
in the case of alcohol it is not simply
the hazard and peril of it, but the actual
certainty that year by year hundreds
and thousands are being done to death
through its accursed power, which must
make the touch and taste of it abhorrent
to every right thinking man and woman.
Arnold White, who has lived among
the natives, says truly that the Indians
of America and Hindustan, the wild
races of Australia, the Kaffirs, the de-
based Hottentots, the west coast ne
groes, the effeminate Singalese, and the
aborigines of Canada have bitter reason
to rue the first day of their communion
ton with the Anglo-SaXon race. They
had not sought the contact in the first
instance, but have been compelled to re-
ceive through it pollution by foul dis
ease and Determination by drink. For
every missionary sent out there go out
also some 5000 gallons of rum, and it
might be said that it were better to
carry out Mohammedanism than Chris
tianity, because Northumberland is
temperate and Christianity is not. 1t
is terrible to hear from travellers the ac-
count of the mountains of empty bar
rels which are to be encountered in the
vicinity of native towns, of the pay
ment for the products of the country in
strong drink, and the orgies with which
native towns are filled through its pro-
miscuous distribution. Our missionary
operations, one almost thinks, are worse
than neutralized by the introduction of
the facilities for intoxicating drink, of
which the Mohammedan invasion
cleared the country.-Rev. f. B. Meyer,
b. A, in Christian Work.

THERE WAS NO GAME.
The Cowboy Had Several Points to
Settle Before the Cards
Were Dealt.
Copyright, 1882


Things were getting little slow in
the smoking car, and when one of the
four passengers proposed a game of
eucher the other three readily agreed
to take a hand in. One of them was
cowboyish-looking chap, about 80
years old, and as he seated himself to
begin the game, he inquired:
Gentlemen, shall we have a fair I'M
Outstanding before we begin business ?"
"Why, we are to play railroad euchre.
aren't we?" replied one of the others.
Il expect so, but l thought it would
be just as well to know beforehand
how many aces thar is to be in the
pack. I've played without any, and
I've played with six. Shall we say four
aces and keep it at that?"
The other three thought four aces
would be about enough, and that be-
ing settled, the cowboy continued:
"Now, as to disputes. If we call
each other liars is it to stop thar or
shall shootin' foller? I've played whar'
it stopped, and I've played whar' l had
TO shoot the men on my right and left
It's all the same to me, only I'd like to
know which way it is"
1t was very speedily decided that
there was to be no shooting, and the
cowboy bowed to the majority, and
said:
I've played whar' the joker took the
right-bower, and I've played whar' a
ten-spot took the joker. In the latter
case thar was three men killed. Seems
as if we ought to have a plain under
standin' before we begin"
The trio decided that the joker
should be high, but the cards had not
yet been dealt when the cowboy smil-
ingly observed:
Another leetle pint occurs to me.
| believe the sheriff of this county is
lookin' fur me, and I rayther expect
he'll be On the platform at Lafayette as
we draw up. If so, both of w will be-
gin to shoot on sight. Will any of you
gentlemen hev any objections to drop
pin down on the floor when the shoot
in begins, so as to give me room to
handle both guns at once?"
81 don't think i care about euchre to-
day!" said the New York drummer, as
he rose up.
"Nor l."
''Nor To
well, It's an interestin game, when
every thing is understood in advance"
remarked the cowboy, as he carelessly
shuffied the cards, but mebbe it's just
as we'll that we don't play. Fact is,
l haven't shot at anybody or bin shot
at fur purity nigh four weeks, and if
the game didn't end in somebody oein'
drilled with hot lead, l should kinder
consider it time thrown away!"

Incident.

Incident.
Savannah, July 25.-Editor Morning
News In your issue of to-day, under the
head of Crowds at the Sea Side" you use
these words in referring to the Tybee
Railroad, 1.-THE lack of effort to accommo-
date those who were patrons of the road
was apparent, and was generally COM
mented upon" This is doing Tybee road
a great injustice as will appear from the
facts in this case.
On the train leaving Savannah
at $3.50 p. m. there were eight
coaches with a seating capacity for AL
passengers. The actual count by the
conductor was 800 people, leaving fifty-four
seats unoccupled. In regard to the gen.
tleman who you say forced the door open,
the facts are as follows: The cars are
Opeud by the conductor when those on
front end of the train have been filed
and in opening a coach the rear door is
opened for the reason that when we for
merly opened the front door passengers
who already had seats would leave them
and go into the coach just opened, and
leave the coaches only partly filled, and
as we have the right to make reasonable
regulations We prefer TO open the rear
door for the above reason. Now this gen

other coach and was told that there were

them) together, he would not go aboard

LAUREL GROVES DRAINAGE.
Park and Tree Commission Urges It's
Importance.

The draining of Laurel Grove cemetery,
which was referred by Council to the pub
lie health committee. was considered yes
terday, and it was decided to recommend
a sufficient appropriation be made at once
to do the work. The matter was being
pressed by the Park and Tree Commission.
Bids for the work were received some
time ago by the commission, and were re-
ferred to Council, after which the matter
found its way to the committee. In view
of the fact the necessity for additional
room in the cemetery is imminent, the
committee decided there should be no
further delay about recommending suf-
ficient appropriation to carry out the
plans agreed on. 1t is also the intention to
appropriate enough to make the work
complete in every respect, but the amount
asked by the commission will not be al
lowed The commission may consider it
self lucky if 1850 is appropriated for this
purpose.
The intention is to push the completion
of the draining with all possible speed,
that the cemetery may then be laid off into
lots.
