LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE
Ihe Falling Dew


no the Editor Evening journal.
Sir: Mr. Addicks says he is keep
ing quiet and waiting for the dew to
fall" But, Mr.. Addicks, the dew
has already fallen and Is still falling,
and you seem not aware of it. 1t is
sad, indeed. "1'he dew is falling, but
it is mildew. You doubtless feel merry
over the metaphor, but there is a
tragedy behind Il. Yes, sir, "the dew
has fallen. It's black blight lies over
the area OF the State. Il has shrivelled
the opening flowers OF virtue and high
purpose in many hearts. 1t has left its
taint in many homes. There are re-
grets yet unconfessed which 1t has en-
gendered. The once pure streams Of
manly innocence have felt its pOllu
tion. In some places its virus has
eaten into the core of domestic felicity.
It's poison has purified in the con-
sciences of some who otherwise would
have served the State honorably. The
black deathlke dew" has fallen. You
have called II down and know not OF
rs coming. You are envirOnel in
wealth and luxury and are uncon-
sclous OF the desOlatiOn. Good fortune
90 you has become misfortune to
others. An election to the Senate
would not help you. IL would more
firmly fix the scales Of your purblind-
ness It would intensity your insen-
sibllity. Your cold, calculating ambi-
tion would feed on the empty honor
until haply you would be like the ma
MAC who set fire to his own prison
and rubbed his hands and grinned
while 1t was burning over his head.
But what boots it If you be mirthful,
yet over the track you have left there
lies thick the black mildew of corrup-
tion and regret and wreck?
You are to be pitied, not envied nor
chided. When PrOspero is transform
ed to Caliban there is room for tears
If you have the touch of Midas, re-
member It is a gift, not an achieve
ment; a curse, not a blessing. Your
best nope is in defeat You will not he
likely to see it while "he dew" falls,

ed. aged IS years. They had made
their home with Mrs. HUT, in New Cas-
tie, for several months and started to
this city about 8 o'clock to look for
employment. When opposite the
Guthrie home, Neal became entangled

it in his hand as though to release
himself, he received a shock which rem
dered him unconscious. In falling the

STATEMENT.

c. p. King, superintendent of the
railway line, said to a reporter for the
Evening Journal that the wire that
Neal had become entangled in was an
ordinary span wire, which had been
broken in the early morning. An en-
ploye Of the company had cut the wire
from the trolley wire, as he had BE-
lieved, and placed the end that was
attached to the pole out of harms way.
The high wind evidently had blown
the wire ilto the road, where Neal had
come in contact with it.

triOus and gentlemanly.
