WOULD BE LYNCHED
Had These Cases Occurred in Some
 Southern States.

Chicago, Aug 28.-The brutality of the negroes of the south was equalled by six white men in portion of Chi cago, near the stock yards, when they beat and robbed Fred Laborge and his wife Gertrude, and after taking their yaluables dragged the woman to q shed and committed a most brutal as- sault upon her. Laborge was held down and was helpless. The couple were returning home at 2 o'clock in the morning from q picnic in the coun- try, when i'll passing Thirtieth and Halsted streets they were seized and the outrage followed. When released the woman was unconscious and doc tors fear she cannot recover. Only one person has been arrested, and this suspect has been recognized by Mrs Laborge as q former schoolmate. The police hope to secure all of the gang within the next twenty-four hours.

THEIR SECRET is OUT,

All Sadieville, Kentucky, was curious
to learn the cause of the vast improve
ment in the health of Mrs. s. P. Whit
taker, who had for long time endur-
ed untold suffering from chronic
bronchial trouble. Its all due to DR..
Kings New Discovery, writes her hus-
band. 1t completely cured her and
also cured our little grand daughter of
a severe attack of whooping cough
Ii positively cures coughs, cold, la
grippe, bronchitis, all throat and lung
troubles. Guaranteed bottles SO cents
and $l.O0. Trial bottles free at G.
Lavelle's drug store.

Poetic Justice.

pleasure drive with his sweetheart not
long ago received much needed
though rather severe lesson on the
necessity of being humane to animals
in this day and generation. 1t was
very hot day, and when the drive was
about half over the horse became
balky. The driver thereupon lost his
temper and gave the animal an un-
merciful beating. Then the trouble
began. A constable saw him and
promptly arrested him for cruelty to
animals. He was unable to pay the
money. and his companion settled the
business for him. Then she went
home and wrote him note, and this
is what it said:
"When Il man will so brutally beat a
horse and 50 easily lose his temper, a
woman marrying him would take the
chance of the same treatment"
And the rest of the note released
him from the engagement.
Most people will be Of the opinion
that the young lady in question did
exactly what was right, and that she
was fortunate in discovering the dis
position of her tiance before instead of
after marriage. Insensibility to the
pain Of another is not trait which is
particularly desirable in either Il hus-
band or wife. While, of course, it is
not to be inferred that every man who
will beat his horse will also beat his
wife, cruelty to animals SO vltiates the
moral nature that those perceptions
upon which a sense Of justice depends
are blunted. The intimacy of mar
riage is SO close that happiness can
only exist where there is mutual for
bearance, together with a certain SEN
sitiveness to the feelings of others.
The man who does not possess this sem
sitivenesS may not be actually cruel to
either wife or children, SO far as ply
sical maltreatment is concerned. but
he will say and do things which are
quite AS brutal as blow with a whip
would be. There are dozen consider
ations which are likely to restrain him
from wife beating-the opinion of his
neighbors, custom, fear that his wife
may invoke the law, fear of retaliation
by her relatives, or merely the fact
it is not customary for American hus-
bands to express their sentiments in
that way. But f his nature i; essen-
italy cruel he will find ways to tor
ture those dependent upon him which
are worse than physical pain. The
true test of Il mans character is not
to be found in his actions when he i.
restrained by public sentiment Or fear
of consequences. He is his real self
when he is free to act to indulge in
meanness, Or passion, or cruelty, tow
ard some creature which cannot retail
late and has no means of defence.
The Jerseyman who is the unenviable
hero Of the incident above recorded
was subjected to this test, and appar-
emily he failed. He may have an idea
that by his lack of consideration for
his horse he was showing Il manly and
stern strength of character which
would impress the girl in the seat be-
side him. Some men have an idea
that women rather admire those who
are capable Of cruelty. These men are
trying to fit sixteenth century ideas
The Grit-advocate., 1901-08-16

into twentieth century civilization.
1t cannot be done. 1t is true that
women admire u brave man, and often
the man in question is soldier or a
hunter, but there is a very fine dis
tinction between the brave man and
the man who is ever ready to infiict
pain. What the modern girl sees to
admire in the soldier is not his willing
ness to shoot other men, but his readi-
ness to be shot himself; not his mur-
derons impulses, but his sacrifice of
personal safety. The kind OF woman
who would like man better after see
ing him act cruelty toward helpless
animal is not fit for civilized coun-
cry.

IN MEMORY OF THE DEAD.
M8ny of the Decorations of the
Church of the Ascension in That

The decorations of the Lutheran Church
Of the Ascension for the Easter services
are unusually beautiful, and will have
for some of the members of the congre-
cation an unusual significance, as many
of the floral designs are offered as memo
rails to dead friends and relatives. Two
of the handsomest of these sad mementos
are a star of flowers mounted on pedestal
of evergreen and blossoms, given by Mr.
and Mrs. Christopher Lang, in memory
of their daughter, Miss Mamie Lang; the
other is beautiful wreath encircling a
cross and surmounted by a white dove
with outstretched wings. This also is
a memorial to Miss Lang, and was sent
by her former schoolmates at Elizabeth
College.
Another memorial is star and wreath
offered in memory Of Mr.. and Mrs. Henry
Bieber by their children, and yet en-
other is a heart Of white and red flow
ers given by Mrs. George Wagner to the
memory Of several members of her fam
lily.
In addition to these offerings the altar
of the church is adorned with a number
of handsome palms and Easter lilies. The
altar railing is festooned with bamboo,
while the windows are all banked with
green and small flowers. The rail of the
choir loft too, is covered with bamboo.

were doubtful, as the movement did not

They feared that they had little before
