Threatened Race Conflict.

C~arsonville, Ga, November 17-There
is almost a reign of terror in this COM
munity. 1t grows out of the fight be-
tween Sam MOnck, a white man, and
Key Riley, a negro, Saturday night,
in which Riley was severely cut. Since
that time several threats has been
made to lynch Riley and a number of
shots have been fired into his house.
1t is a strong log cabin, however, and
no damage has been lone. The negroes
are armed ard swear that no harm
shall come Ito Riley without a fight.
The people of C~arsonville and the bet
ter element generally ~deprecate the
condition of affairs.

| It trains the head without regard to the
heart, the intellect at the expense Of the
heart.
THE results of this training, on a large
scale, are seen In the fearful n.ut.piica-
ton of crime. There was a murder COM
mitted the past year for every hour Of
the day and night the whole year through.
There were only 1s1 legal executions dur
ing the same period. That means that
! only man was executed for every hundred
murders committed. The ratio of MUIR
ders and other crimes of the first class to
population is higher in our land than in
any other of the civilized nations.
In our State prisons in lSs3 were $500
conv.cts of the first class. The govern
ment inquiry shows that AZ per cent of
these were natives of the States in which
they were imprisoned. 43 per cent. were
natives of other States, or s. per cent. of
these were born in America and are the
product of our educational system.
The constitution forever forb.ds the es-
tablishment of religion. We can lock TO
the State for no religious instruction The
Bible is no part of our pubic scho 81
system. 1t never can be. We do not, in
our public schools SO much as teach the
ten commandments. Thou shalt not steal,
thou shalt not k.ll-they are no part of the
instruction of our future citizens. The re-
suit is before US. Minnesota, which has
a foreign population standing to native
American population as I to 3. But Mime
sofa has 90 per cent less crime than Con-
necticut. How account for it? Easily.
Minnesota's foreign born population, from
the sixth to the fifteenth year, had one
hour of religious instruction every day,
and by competent teachers. Connecti-
cuts population had one-half hour week
of religious instruction by incompetent
teachers, and only as long as the child
chooses to attend. Half the children in
America are in no Sunday school at all,
receive no religious instruction IN the pub
lie schools, and are growing up as ignor-
ant of the principles of religion as if they
were n Central Africa.

and culture close together, to throw the
restraints of religion over the whole COM
pass of life. and thus to produce the ideal

BOXING.

Our old friend Peter Maher bcbbed
up again in Pittsburg last Thursday,
and Charley Stevenson, who was never
heard of outside of his own home, al
most finished the so-called Irish cham
pion with a love-tap on the chin. AS
usual, thefpapers make excuses for him.
Why sport writers should caJole and
humor this fellow, who has never
shown any ability as a boxer, and VINO
goes out with the first tap Of glove,
like a candle in June breeze, is past
understanding. A Pittsburg paper says
of his latest exhibition:
"In his fight with Charley Stevenson
Thursday night Peter Maher had mar
row escape from being put out, and in
the future will be more careful while
meeting his interiors at the boxing
game. Just before the gong sounded
at the end of the first round Maher jab-
bed Stevenson heavily on the jaw,
sending him to the floor. Just about
the time Maher landed the colored box
er was in the act of trying right hand
swing. The blow was on its way, and
although Makers punch got in ahead
of it, Stevenson's just skipped Peter s
chin, dazing him.
THE colored boy went to the hard
boards like a sack Of salt, almost
knocked out, and the crowd was awe
stricken when Maher fell in heap and
appeared to be dazed. Stevenson, in a
emi-conscious condition, tried to rise,
but the bell sounded, allowing his sec
onds to assist him to his corner. Ma
her arose unaided, but he was dazed as
