There are some officers who posi-
lively ignore the demand for the ar
rest of persons violating the law. on
the premise that the more arrests they
make the less their popularity. They
go ON the theory that it they don't ar
rest anyone. they will not make any
one mad. This is positively the most
purile excuse that any officer elected
or appointed to Preserve the peace
could make. An officer who thus
disregards the very duty for which he
is elected. should be fired from his po-
sition without any waiting. The
officer has sworn duty to perform
without exercising fear or favor and
without attempting to create politi-
cal constituency for further political
preferment.

JAIL GOOD ENOUGH.

II is matter OF congratulation that
bond has been denied Lieutenant Gov
ernor Tillman. the murderer OF Edi.
tor Gonzales at Columbia, S. c. Free
dom is sweet to Tillman but life was
more sweet TO the fallen editor and
the lesson should be indelibly impress
ed for the benefit of others.
Tillman was too ready with his gun.
There may be dash of glamour and
a tinge of tragic romance about the
South Carolina method of shooting.
and It sounds well enough In books
OF cavalier fiction. but there It should
end
Tillman's act was not the act OF a
hero. Any coward can shoot down an
Inarmed citizen II he be sufficiently
hard hearted. Had Gonzales engaged
Tillman in street fight, then there
might be some reason why Tillman
should be entitled to freedom from Jail
while awaiting trial But the facts
are all against him. No matter what
.onzales may have said in his paper
about Tillman, there is certainly moth.
ing in the South Carolina code to
warrant such a killing.
Human life should not be cheap. Not
even in South Carolina Every body
wants TO see a fan fight, II there must
be a fight at all, and the Tillman- Gon-
zales AFFAIR was too much one-sided for
any great amount of public sentiment
TO lodge with Tlllman.

REFLECTIONS.

A wife often permits her affection TO
blind her reason.
Regard for petty things often will
dwarf a mans ambition.
A woman's love can become annoy
ing as well as burdensome.
Marriage based on honest affection
will withstand the ravages OF time.
When woman gives way to anger,
she begs her own pardon with tears.
Many women find happiness only
when attending to the affairs Of others.
Confidence is not easily gained where
exaggerated love of self is found to
exist.
To decide between love and duty has
caused hours of worry to men as well
as TO women.
The man with a vice wonders why
so many persons think it their duty TO
make public the fact.
Man often shows the hard side of his
disposition TO mark more strongly the
generous shades.-Philadelph Bulle-

Society, read a paper today at a meet

he presented the results of his observ-

in a way that startled his hearers. q.
Mr. Hutchins said that polygamy is
practiced in certain towns in the east
ern part of Connecticut.
The degeneracy of the inhabitants
Of The towns referred to. Mr.. Hutch
ins said, is productive of murder and
other crimes
He added that another feature Of
life in that section, and in the north
western part of the state, is the exist
.ence Of class Of illiterates. whom he
called poor whites"
These live in shacks and are ignor-
ant. The speaker said that the ineE
cheney of the country schools is re-
sponsible in a large measure for su0h
conditions, and he believes also that
the church is not holding its own in
these districts.

LunIoIntry In CHM.

In China the practice Of luniolatry
exists at the present day and is of very
early origin. The chief festival, that
Of Yueping, or moon cakes, Is held dur
ing the eighth month of the Chinese
year. Persons make cakes of various
sizes in the shape OF the moon and
paint different figures upon them.
Friends and relatives pay visits to one
another give entertainments and pre-
sent their cakes after making protes-
tations and pouring out oblations TO
the moon.
1t is very remarkable that verse OF
one of the Jewish prophets should be
explained by this Chinese custom.

seer, "and the fathers kindle the fire,
and the women knead 'he'r dough to
make cakes to the quce heaven" a
