istence at Detroit, after allowing
him to taste the joys OF official
power at Washington. Mr.. AL
ger will have an excellent oppor-
tunity to get ''even" with the
administration who made a scape-
goat of him. He has not had
his moneys worth, if he was, as
it is asserted, a heavy contributor
to the purchase of the republican
election of 1896.
AS for the Philippines, there is
no doubt that an entirely new
deal in the matter of leadership
and policy must take place soon.
General Otis clearly does not
grasp the sitaution, ordon't know
how to deal with it. He has not
men enough under his command
and he is responsible for that
condition of affairs, for the pres
ident has accepted his advice and
judgment in the premises. Un-
fortunately he seems TO continue
to do so. Gen. Otis should be
set aside at once. Mr.. McKin-
ley will have to be forced to the
step by public pressure. There
is plenty of better material in our
army to take the place of the in
capale Otis.
The recent assassination and
disputed succession of President
Heurcux of the Dominican Re-

problems at our doors. 1t is al

syndicate has practically control
of the finances and affairs of that
country. Two warships have
been ordered to San Domingo to
protect American interests. Syn
dicate have been very well cared
for by the present administration
and there is no reason why we
should not take in San d 1mingo,
if the seizure of the Philippines
can be justified. All territorial

MRS. MARY CASSIDY.

Mrs. Mary Cassidy, the ven-
erable and beloved mother of
Judge Hiram Cassidy. Of Brook.
haven, and Judge w. p. Cas-
sedy, OF Summit, died al the
home Of her kinsman, Mr.. II. II.
Magee, in Franklin county last
Sunday. Up TO short yiins aao,
Mrs. Cassidy enjoyed remark
ably good health for ono Of her
years. Possessed of an excep-
tionally attractive personality
and retaining to an unusual de-
gree all her mental and physical
faculties, she was one of those
lovely Southern matrons who lit
era'ly grew old beautifully.
Judge Cassidy and wife, OF
Brookhaven, were at her bedside
when she died. She was buried
Monday in the family burial
ground in Franklin county be-
side her honored husband who
preceded her TO the spirit land
some 20 years ago. --Brookhaven
Leader.
Judge VIM. p. Cessedy and
family and Mrs. j b. Holden, a
grand daughter Of this beloved
lady, went out from Summit
Monday to attend the funeral.
Surrounding the grave on this
solemn occasion were children,
grand children and great grand
children of the deceased, who
was beloved by all in life. She
was life long, faithful and con-
sistent member of the Methodist
church, and truly it can be said
of her that she let not her right
hand know what her left was do
ing in dispensing that genial and
liberal charity that made her life
among our people so hallowed
and blessed. Kindness Of deeds
and words were proverbial with
her, and now she is no more,
many there will be who will shed
tears OF sorrow over her bier.
She was about 10 years old, and
had lived a great part of her use-
full life in Summit. To her chill
dren, and other relatives, the
profoundest sympathy Of our
people is earnestly rendered over
loss so great and a grief 80

JUDGE LONGING FOR Gov
ERNOR.

Now that Attala county no lon
ger has a candidate for governor,
the Star Ledger will support Judge
A.. H. Longino for this office.
Bereaved of his parents when
small, not even having a guar
dian to care for him, or the adj
venturous aids of fame or for
tune, or illustrious ancestors to
boom him, he has thus unaided
emerged from poverty and OBJ
scurity to the high position now
occupied by him in the estima-
ton of Mississippians. He gave
himself a collegiate education
and as soon as eligible, his coun- :
try began to honor him, and for
twenty years he has been filling
the most important official sta
tions with marked credit to him
self and state.
AS a scholar, lawyer, states
man and gentleman, he ranks
very high. His nomination is
now conceded by all who have
watched the canvass. He will
easily be nominated on the first
ballot in the state convention
We are warranted in the state
ment that Attala will aid in Sc
curing his nomination. We pre-
dict for Judge Longino a popular
administration as governor. -

PISTOL CARRYING.

The habit, if it may be so term
ed, of always carrying a revolver
is, we believe, a very dangerous
one. 1t is dangerous because it
has a tendency to cultivate a
spirit of bravado and overbearing
in the person who constantly car
ries pistol about with him.
There are but two plausible rea-
sons assigned for the carrying of
concealed weapons:
First, for protection. This is
the reason most frequently given.
Every man has a right to protect
his life, but does the carrying of
a pistol afford any protection?
Perhaps you have noticed that
the men who never carry a gun
are the men who are least often
in trouble, and who seldom come
to harm by the assassin's bullet.
The reason of this is that the
man who carries a pistol, be he
ever 80 strong, will sooner or
later become somewhat of a bull
|ly. The carrying of a pistol has
very much the same effect upon
ia boy as the reading of books OF
the Jesse James and Buffalo Bill
type. Somehow it closes the
mind to gentle and noble thoughts
and opens the eyes to see insults

THE MADHOUSE.
Rev. Mr.. Peede Says Chris
tian Science Belongs There.

Christian Science was the theme of
Rev, 4. Richard Peedes address at the
South Baptist Church last evening.
Rev. Mr.. Peede, after thorough scien-
tifc investigation of the doctrines of
Mrs. Eddy and her school, has failed
TO be converted. Instead he calls the
doctrine 1.-The philosophy of the mad
house,
After quoting Mrs. Eddy's funda-
mental principle that mind is all-in-
all, that the only realities are the
divine mind and idea" he went on to
show some of the absurdities of the
Christian Scientist belief, quoting Mrs.
Eddy as saying that eating is unnec-
essary, that she can raise the dead, that
disregard of the laws of hygiene con-
duces to more perfect health and other
things in similar vein. Referring to
the eXorbitant prices charged by Mrs.
Eddy for her books, Mr.. Peede said she
evidently did not consider money a de-
fusion of the mortal mind.
1.-THE truth is" said Mr.. Peede, sum
ming up his views on the question, cher
crude metaphysical system is utterly
impractical. Pluming itself as
| SCIENCE it antagonizes every dictum
Of the philosophy of common sense. 1t
repudiates the evidence of the senses,
denies the primary persistent, constant
intuitiveness of the soul, SCOTS at the
belief of the wisest men and entirely
ignores the teachings of the Bible as to
physical and spiritual matters. Chris
tian Science metaphysics is the philo-
sophy of the mad house"

ness and happiness. 1t is good to be
happy. For the majority of people life
is not too full of enjoyment. Theil
surroundings are none too cheerful.
When their day of release comes and
they exchange the working dress for
the garments of praise, if there Is
something within reach to brighten
and cheer their life. why should it be
prohibited? You might have a quieter
Sunday by compelling people to be still,
but you would have a more SorroWful
and not a better humanity.
1t is such considerations as these that
led President Eliotsto say the other day
that we must freely allow that pleas
ure has a rightful place in the use of
Sunday. 1t was at a meeting Of the Sab
bath Protective League. There had
been the usual lament and condemna-
ton of the freer tendencies of the time
and the usual praise of the beauty and
blesSedness of the Puritan Sabbath.
And then the president of Harvard
University, alone in that company of
defenders of the faith gave the mod
eln version of the old truth that the
Sabbath is made for man.
He referred to the pressure Of mod
ern life, to the unfavorable conditions
surrounding it, to the need of liberia
ton, TO the neeU OF MODERN brightness
and happiness, and then said that in
our idea of the use of Sunday there
must be recognition Of these needs and
room for their satisfaction. I do not
see how any one can fail to agree with
these conclusions. And / believe it
would be of great advantage if the Sc
rious opinion of the community could
make itself known on this point.
1t may be feared it is dangerous. On
the contrary, it is the only path of
safety If Sunday is to be saved it will
not be by opposing all uses Of its time
except one. 1t will be by acknowledge
ing that it is good for many things.
1t will be by winning the sympathy of
the pleasure seeking crowd, and they
will perhaps listen when we tell them
of the other opportunities the day af-
fords
For them and for ourselves L would
prescribe no rules. Here is man 9
great day, the day when he may leave
the workshop for the palace of life, the
day when he may be glad in the Lord
and know what the Lord meant when
he spoke of the joy of living. The
feeling to be inculcated is that Sunday
is too precious to be let run to waste.
Let us learn to appreciate all it brings
for our good, and then we shall have
the feeling that shall determine for
our lives that 1t is best to use not only
the morning for our spiritual culture,
but the afternoon for our recreation
and refreshment.

Knight Proposes to
Dispel
SHADES OF NIGHT,
VIII Use Welsbachs Instead
Of Arc Lights.

Henry A. knight, superintendent of
lighting streets, is making plans for
street illumination for the coming year
which will be started as soon as the
snow leaves the ground. He will make
a feature of proper illumination of GER
tain streets, the lighting of which with
arc lamps is a difficulty on account of
shade trees.
There are several streets in Worces-
ter where trees in foliage intercept the
light from arc lamps which are strung
either among or higher than the
branches.
Supt. knight believes the streets can
be better illuminated by using Wells
back lamps which do not reach the
branches. Several Welsbach lights can
be used for the cost of one arc lamp.
Mr., Knight has made overtures to the
Worcester Gas Company to extend It's
mains through many Of the streets thus
darkened by shade trees so that he can
use the Welsbaeh lamps where neces-
sary. He also believes in using some
other lamp than an arc where a great
ef area OF lighting can be secured for
the same money.
On short street in which the arc
throws its light in two directions only
he finds 1t is cheaper to use some other
kind of lamp. Where an arc can be used
on a corner and shed it's rays in four
directions it is the cheapest light, for
1t illuminates 1900 feet. 400 in each di-
rection. On street which it can light
IN Two directions only, one-haIf of the
hght is practically wasted and the
same lighting area can be covered for
less money with another kind of lamp.
Superintendent Knight intends to be-
gin at Salisbury street on the north
and Cambridge street on the south and
investigate the streets which can be
peter Illuminated by Welsbachs than
| by arcs as at present.
