FOR LOVE AND LIFE
By F. B. WRIGHT.

(which shall it be?" Howard Merton
had asked that morning as he helped
Carol Grey into the saddle, "the wood
road or up the valley?"
Neither" she had answered with
decision. 1--WE will go on the cliff
path" Then. as she noted Merton's
protesting look, she added: mo,

fences or trees. 1 hate tame riding
and tame riders" Wherefore, as Miss
Grey was a wilful young woman, Mer-
ton could do nothing but acquiesce.
1t was to be their last ride together
before Carol left for Europe, and the
last chance he would have to be alone
with her, and to ask again a certain
question.
Now they had come out on the
cliffs, with the lazy waves breaking
against the rocks a hundred feet be-
low them. AS far as the eye could
see the ocean stretched sparkling and
dancing in the sun. The road was a
mere path skirting the edge of the
cliffs. quilted and worn by storm, and
Merton was right in calling it dan

claimed, but Merton did not heed the

Howard. Is it any use? Don't spoil

ITS just because it is the last ride.

WARAKABRA TIGERS.

The Mausi Indians, who live in
the unexplored interior of British
Guina, tell terrible tales of "the War
akabra tigers" as they call them. I'm
like other tigers, these beast are said
to hunt in packs. They attack all liv-
ing animals, including human beings,
that cross their path. When hungry,
they will even descend in pack on
a native village and carry off the peo-
pie out of their huts.
According to the Indians, the only
way to escape, when pursued by these
tigers, is to get into water. because
there they will not follow. They can
climb trees like a monkey
No white explorer has ever seen
these ''Warakabra tigers" but It is
believed that they are the same as the
Brazilian hunting dogs which gen.
orally travel In packs.

White Stone Lithia Hotel is the
South Carolina resort at White Stone
Springs in Spartanburg county that
has become famous in the space of
one years time. Just 365 days have
elapsed since this hotel threw open its
doors to the patronage of that class
of resort seekers who want the very
best
The hotel is a fine structure, its
architectural design being formed in
the shape of a capital e, the bars of
which extending laterally represent
the arrangement and relative position
of the wings which themselves run
toward the west. A broad passage
runs through each wing and also
across the body of the hotel from one
end to the other. The striking
feature, perhaps, is the beautiful ro-
tunda and lobby at the central por-
tion of the whole structure and at the
same time at the entrance to the hotel.
Here the lobby is about rs feet square
with two balconies encircling it on the
second and third floors, with a dome
over arching gracefully the entire
scene. Its architectural beauty is the
frequent subject offremark among the
guests. Every room in the hotel is an
outside one and is finely furnished.
An electric road conveys all passen-
gers from the station to the spring in
a few minutes, and there you will be
taken care of in a way to make you
feel at home.
There is no lack of pleasant pas
times and amusements at White Stone.
A bowling alley, a tennis court, a pool
and billiard room are all conveniently
located near the spring. The table at
White Stone is kept up to the high
est standard. All in all, this resort
is a most delightful one.

5, 1 was in council of war at Meades
headquarters on the battlefield, and
while we were in consultation courier
came in from Gen. w. H. French,
that he had destroyed the bridge at
Failing Waters, and we did not sup
pose Lee could cross the river with
out another bridge, hence the delay
in pursuit.
I have known the Savannah mill
tary for nearly thirty years. and be-
cause of my connection with the Morn
ing News during that period l have
never had occasion to feel otherwise
than proud of their good behavior and
military superiority at home and
abroad, in peace or in war. A few
days ago, when 1 read of the insubOr-
dinate and disgraceful conduct of the
Third Alabama Regiment in camp at
Montgomery, it was a pleasure to me
to feel that no such conduct ever mar
red the honorable record of Savannah's
First Regiment 1t has mattered lit
tie who was their colonel, the officers
and men have kept a clean record.
The Augusta Chronicle, in it's hand
some and deserved tribute to Col Ar
thur Gordon, refers in high terms of
praise to his honored father Gen. Will
liam w. Gordon, as evidence of his
being soldier by inheritance and
training" The editor could have gone
far back in the history of our country,
to the heroic great-grandfather ia
NOUS cavalry commander in the Revo-
lutionary War; or, later, to his grand
father, Col. William w. Gordon, who
was Georgia's first graduate lin 1850
at West Point Military Academy And
on the noble mothers side, as well, this
accomplished young colonel, "by inher-
itance," claims the highest soldierly
qualities of head and heart. Mrs. Ell
eanor KinZie Gordon. the beloved wife
of Gen. William w. Gordon, comes
from a family famous in the early
days of the West, one whose record in
war and in peace, forms the basis of

ternal great grandmother and grand
mother of Col. Gordon We're actors in
Indian massacres that put to blush The
most terrible battles of these latter
years. The Kinzie girls married brave
soldiers, and the Kinzie boys became
heroes in war. Savannah has the best
military in the South because of this
kind of inheritance" From the days
of the Revolution her sons have illus
trated the highest soldierly qualities
and the purest patriotic heroism on a

CONVICTED OF
 GRAND LARCENY
WALTER JONES FOUND GUILTY IN THE CRIMINAL COURT OF AP- PRoPRIATING A HORSE AND BUGGY TO HIS OWN USE.

Walter Jones, white man, was con- victed of grand larceny in the criminal court yesterday and the value of the prop erty stolen was assessed by the Jury at $125.
 The indictment charged him with the larceny of a horse and buggy and set of harness from John A. Bell an Ensley liveryman.
 It was claimed that the theft was com mitted June 2. 1902. According to the testimony brought out the defendant came to the stable of MT. Bell on that date and rented a horse and buggy and they were not returned. It was further shown that the outfit was sold on the following day to John Ellard by a man. who claiming to be Walter Watts, but who was identified by MT. Ellard as the defendant at the bar.
 The greater part of the evidence for the defendant was based on certain deposit tions produced in court which were claim ed to have been made by persons in Iron- ton. Ohio. The purport of these deposit tions was that MT. Jones was in Iron ton, Ohio, continually during the month of May, 1902, and during the greater part of July.
 The defendant sought by these deposit tions to prove an alibi.
 The evidence also brought out the fact that Jones was not arrested for the of- fense until several months after 1t was committed. The arrest was made In Gate City and the fact was brought out that when the officers approached the house in which they believed Jones to be they were told by Mrs. Jones that her husband was not there and that they found him locked up in one of the rooms of the house.
 One of the touching incidents of the trial was the presence of the wife of the de. fendant within the railing of the court room. There were also three children. Two little boys sat on one chair near the father and the other child was a baby in it's mothers arms.

SPRINGER WILL
 HANG TOMORROW
NEGRO CONVICTED OF MURDER. ING FELLOW CONVICT WILL WALK TO THE GALLOWS-WAS SERVING LIFE SENTENCE.

John Stringer, a negro, will be hanged in the yard of the county jail tomorrow morning.
 He was tried in the criminal court au6 convicted some time ago oe the murder of William O'Neal, fellow convict, at Pratt Mines. At the time the killing took place Strnger was serving a life sentence in the penitentiary having been convict ed of rape in Pike county.
 The new steel scaffold which is being built for use in the jail yard will not be completed in time to use 1t for the execu- ton of Stringer so that the old gall 1ws will once more be brought into reuulsi- tion. It is more than likely that he is the last man who will ever be hanged On the old structure that has seen so much service.
 It was left standing at the time Felix Hall was executed so that littla prcrara- ton is necessary for the affair tomorrow.
 The hanging will be in charge ot Dep uty Sheriff Love and is the twenty second similar affair that MT. Love has directed.
