PROOF AGAINST REPROOF
Young Robinette Finds Himself in
 the City Jail.

When Young Robinette "bounced" block of wood off the forehead of d Chinese vegetable peddler who was passing the Center street school wheic young Robinette was preparing him self for a life of usefulness, he took the first step in a downward career which he has been following rapidly ever since and which has landed him in the city jail.
 He was suspended from the school and taken before Justice Burnett yes terday for admorition and reproof. No warrant had been issued for the boy for the justice would not send him to jail nor would he impose upon his mother the burden of paying a fine. Ho gave the boy q good talking to and reminded him of the evil reputation he bore for one so young. He told him also that if he should be brought be- fore him again something would hap pen to him. The little rascal went away apparently greatly impressed.
 But the impression was only ap- parent. He went back to the school and announced that he was going to lick the boy who had told on him and got him into all the trouble. He did not know precisely who had turned states evidence. As q matter of fact there were ten pupils who had informed the principal of the identity of the assail- ant of the Chinaman. But the youth created so much disturbance about the school house that he attracted the no- tice of the police and was taken to the city jail.
 The Chinaman though theoretically a heather displayed q Christian spirit when the case was before the justice. He said he did not want to prosecute the boy; all he wanted was that he should be given a good lecture.
 It is evident TOW that he is proof against lectures and more severe meas ures it is thought will have to be taken. The reform school will be open for the reception of boys of his kind in about a week.

 It is set forth in the bill of exceptions that the defense was forced to trial in the absence of Sam Henshaw, the most important witness, who had been told by Cameron that he would fix An derson. Exception was also taken to the language of the court in cveT-rul ing motion for continuance of the trial in which the court stated that the affidavit was not sufficiently strong and that if it were made strcng enough. Anderson would be confined in the county JaI until the next term or court without bail.
 Exception is also taken to much of the evidence brought out by the prose- cution on direct or cross examination over the objection of the defense. Ex- ception was taken too to many of the instructions of the court to the jury and also to the order of the court deny ing motion for a new trial.

was 10 to 4 in favor of Warsaw.

q to IL, in favor of the latter,
The former is made up of bows
whose ages range from to 10 years,
and the latter of girls whose ages
are about the same. These bows and
girls are the children of the hest
people in town, and a large crowd
came out to witness the game, which
was watched with the closest atten-
ton from start to finish. The prin-
cipal amusement was in the success
of the girls over the boys, who took
their defeat anything but gracefully.
Some wept, others mourned in sup
pressed tones, while clouds of anger
were visible ON the brow of those
who suppressed their words aud tears.
The spectators were heard to saw
that they would not have missed II

showing up fairly well in the Ches-
apeake, but.no boat has made much
of catch. Steamers are almost as
thick as a swarm of bees, and unless

ties the boats stand a poor chance of
making a good seasons work.

sailing vessels at Crisfeld, Nd, is
being fitted for menhaden fishing
is disturbing Virginia fishermen.

will be used by the Marylanders
Notwithstanding our stringent laws.

as to non-residents fishing for men,

a croak. Not a complimentary re-

DEMOCRACY AND PROHIBIrI0N
Chimes

The Henry County Bulletin has a
sensible article on Democracy and
prohibition, in which it saws that
while the Democratic party is a tenn
perance party, and while it has been
willing to permit the application of
the principle of local self govern
ment to the regulation or suppress
sion of the liquor traffic, it has never
accepted nor approved State prohi-
bltiop, which is an entirely different
thing, aud that the passage of the
Mann bill Ibid not commit the party
to such prohibition"
Our contemporary is entirely right.
Some people seem to think that
local option and prohibition are syn-
onymous terms, but not so. Local
option is simply privilege which
a people IN locality are permitted
to exercise uuder a State law. A
general hibition law would pro-
hiblt the sale of Intoxicating drinks
everywhere in the State. There is q
vast difference in principle between
these two propositions.
