General Cassius NJ. Clay fought many
duels in his day, usually with his long
bladed knife. meeting pistol or rifle
equally with that trusty weapon. His
physical strength was gigantic. He
was accustomed to the use of weapons.
and he was always cool and never lost
his judgment. For example, when an
adversary shot him and he supposed he
was done for he inflated his lungs to
the full, conscious that he would live
as long as he could hold his breath;
then he drew his knife and did his
bloody work. That was when he killed
Turner. After all, speaking musingly,
reviewing his life, he confessed to re-
porter when he was above eighty four
that he was opposed on principle to the
duel. thinking 1t a savage way to settle
difficulty. 'But there are some cases
for which 1t seems TO be the only rene
d." he added.

against this and all crimes OF mela
Lynch law. however, is anarchy. L
brings in the reign of barbarism.
In estimating criminality among
the black people. we should keep il
mind that since .Appomattox nearly ev-
eery southern state has maintained 8
school of crine--an organized institu-
ton for the training Of criminals. This
charge against the convict lease sys-
tenn of the south. Under this system
both prison and prisoners are farmed
out under the control of private cor
porations-sold to the highest bidder
The motive of both state and lessee Is
not morals but money; not reformation
but exploitation of criminals for gain
It is crime turned into a source OF
revenue; the Drawn and blood of crim-
mails bartered for gain.
Criminals are generally scattered In
branch prisons--quartere in rude
stockades, without proper sanitation
food or clothing. The average life OF
these convicts is less than ten years
Old and young are promiscuously
chained and herded together. Even
men and women are. in some camps
not separated. Hardened criminals and
the boy convict of his first crime: the
comparatively good and the most de-
PRAYED vile and abandoned. are chain
ed together One warden of state
penitentiary protests in his report that
under the present law and custom the
penitentiary is the school OF crime in
stead Of being a reformatory institu-
ton. OF the fifty boys under IS nine
tenths of them leave the prison much
worse than when they came in
There is in these convict camps re
organized reformatory effort. Reform
does not enter into the system. This
outcome of the careful investigation OF
the convict lease system on the part OF
the governor Of Georgia was Il revela-
ton of inhumarity, barbarity and
shameless immortality. Much of it was
unfit for the public press.
"In a period OF two years over LOO
of these conyicts escaped from south
ern prisons. Think of LOO thieves,
murderers, thugs, at large-lawless
law and order Think of a system that
has no reformatory element. no system
to cure men of crime, but that educates
young criminals In crime, and that by
its barbarity brutalizes and de- human
ICES men. and sends out those who do
not die under the horrors OF the sys-
TEN to debauch and degrade society.
From such criminals what wonder If
there have come forth hundreds of
immoral monsters.
"Over against the outcome OF these
schools of crime is the fact that of all
of the thousands of graduates from the
Christian schools maintained by the
benevolence of the north and south
not one graduate has ever been accused
of ~rime against the saeredness of
womanhood"
DR.. Thirkield made strong plea for
the philanthropic Christian9 both of the
south and north to join h4nds in edu-
cational and missionary efforts for the
solution of this gravest problem OF the
races ever given any nation 10 solve

The Best Remedy for Group.

tfrom Atchison, Kan. Daily Globe)
This is the season when the
woman who knows the best reme-
dies for Group is in demand in every
neighborhood. One Of the most
terriable things in the world is TO
be awakened in the middle of the
night by whoop from one of the
children. The Group remicies are
almost as sure to be lost, in case of
Group as a revolver is sure to be
lost in case OF burglars. There
used to be an old-fashioned remedy
for Group. known as hive syrup
and tolu, but some modern mothers
say that Chamberlain Cough
Remedy is better. and does not
cost so much. 1t causes the patient
to throw up the phlegn" quicker,
and gives relief in shorter time.
Give this remedy as soon as the
croupy cough appears and it will
prevent the attack. 1t never fails
and Is pleasant and safe to take.
