the handit rolled boulders down the
mountains on them. The men were I'M
able to reply to the fire effectively, but fin

The bandits were utterly routed. Twen-

The Americans captured large quantities

The main purpose OF having II day set

step could have been taken than that by
which the laboring men OF Atlanta nave de,
cided to mark the day by sobrietY. No class
u men have suffered more from the evils
OF intemperance than those who earn their
bread by homes toll. Self-iniulgence steps
in TO steal that which should go to wife
and children, and leaves in its train misery
untold. When we see workingmen exercls-
ing supreme self-den al and setting their
faces against customs which destroy hap
piness, we have u strong evidence OF re-
form which means mach to the home and

lntoxicants go the wives and babies in

OF joyous homes for the dubious profits
which may come to u few from the sale OF
