A Fathers Advice to His Son.

"A F3Gn6ks4 3 AOV1C0 10 k00 son.
. Walter, il you have had nothing to do with this
matter go straight down to the police station and
prove your innocence. Tell them what you know.
II you have had anything to do with 1t. so up
stairs and blow Your brains out.
These words were addressed to Wal
ter McAlhster by his father when the
former was accused Of completely in
that unspeakably and almost unthink-
ably revolving crime which recently oc-
CURED in Paterson, N. J., for which
four prominent young men have been
indicted for the murder of a working
glra employed in one Of the mills Of the
city. II the statements made are true,
murder was the least revolting feature
Of the crime.
According to, the accounts, Walter
Nc Allister, whose father is a worthy
and well to do citizen, and whose
family and social relations were emi-
nently respectable, was the principal
in the crime, and it what is charged
against him be true, death would be
none too severe punishment for him,
though he was apparently too cow
ardly and degenerate to act upon his
fathers advice to blow out his own
brains. The circumstances seem to
have warranted the fathers stern and
drastic advice. 1t appears that the
elder McAllister had spent thousands
Of dollars in helping his son through
half a dozen scrapes, but in the face of
an accusation Of such revolving char
acter as the one with which he is now
charged the father wisely refused to
assist his dishonored offspring. -
1t is true that blood is thicker than
water. A father cannot be blamed for
shielding his son from the conse-
Guences Of ordinary shortcomings and
piccadillos nor for giving him such
assistance as will enable him to prove
himself guiltless when unjustly charged
with grave offenses, but parental obi
cation and devotion do not require that
he shall interfere in the sons behalf in
case Of such a terrible crime as that
| which is recorded at Paterson.

One Of the men serving under Tan
Hamilton in South Africa has sent to
friend in this country a long letter in
which he gives many interesting de-
tails Of war as seen by highlander in
the ranks. In one passage which shows
that human nature is pretty much the
same the world over he tells how after
hard and hungry marches over the
veldt he at last found himself stationed
as guard in the house of mine mana
ger near Johannesburg. Rations just
then had fallen from halves to quar-
ters, but the mine manager had cook
II made the best possible use Of my
time,' he writes. "She had never seen
a highlander before, but we were soon
the best Of friends, and / had the first
good stomachful since came into the
land Of gold, and gave the managers
whisky tidy shake before l came Off
guard. The cook was an American girl
and game to the heel. She wanted q
cap badge to make a brooch, and I
stole as many as would make brooches
for all the cooks in the town. OF course
Everything is fair in love and war;
and if your grub depends on your love-
making there is nothing like putting it
Oh thick. I hung On like brick for the
four days we were in Johannesburg
and had splendid time Of it. She was
q bit sorry when was going away,
but not half SO sorry as was.'' How
often have we seen episodes like this
on the stage, but while we have smiled
or even laughed at the soldiers swift
success with the fair have been wisely
credulous as to the possibility Of such
things in real life and actual war. But
evidently they do happen, and thus are
the dramatists justified Of their comic
sergeants.
