Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving Day is the day set apart by proclamation of the President and the Governor as a day of general thanksgiving 60 God Almighty for past blessings and present plenty. With a great many people, that is about as far as it goes. With others the day is observed only as an occasion for great stufing, and dinner tables all over the land are loaded with the best eatables that can be obtained. After man has filled himself with every manner of good thing, and has lighted frag- rant cigar, why shouldn't he be thank ful and happy? But the question arises, to whom should he give thanks? The theory that a special providence fills the mouths of the hungry, has long since lost force with the rushing throng of Americans.
 Each man, especially of the middle class, can count the hours and mark the toll that brought forth the reward be enjoys. No harvest has been gather ed, but seed has been sown.
 Shall the laborer whose brow is fur roved with care, whose hands are cal loused, and whose back is bent with the burden of life, render thanks to an invisible god, when not a single law of nature has varied that he might live?
 Shall the weakling whose puny arm and stunted brain have left him unfit ted for the struggle, sing praises for the pain he bears.
 The great God of nature asks not for songs from lips that are dumb with tears. Such thanks will rise no higher than our heads.
 But nature sings her song of praise and gives her thanks where thanks be- long. The laugh of the child, the song of the bird, the mothers sigh and the groan of the afflicted blend in one great anthem of praise.
 The glistening tear of sympathy, the word ottrlendly councll, ana the WaTm pressure of a brothers hand count for songs of thanksgiving and praise and help make the rough places smooth.
 Then let Thanksgiving Day be day of giving thanks. Thanks to our parents whose tender care guided our faltering steps in childhood, thanks to our friends who have overlooked our shortcomings, thanks to the tiller of the soil, the toiler in the mines, the sailor on the stormy seas, in short, thanks to all whose com biued efforts have made it possible for us to live and enjoy life. Happiness is the only tbing in life worth striving for.

A HORRIBLE CRIME
Two Men Blown lip With Dynamite
and Robbed.
OCCURRED IN BROAD DAYLIGHT.
The n.r Had Laid Trap to Get the
Large Amount of non.y Being
Transported.

Washington, Ca, Special.-One or
the most fiendish and bloodthlrsty
murders and robberies in the history
OF Washington county occurred Friday
afternoon on the Middleton ROAD,
about Is miles from her. Samuel T..
Ferguson OF the Ferguson Corstruc'
ton Company, of Pittsburg, was in
stantly killed, and his secretary,
Charles Martin, OF Cincinnati, was IA
tally injured The two men were
driving along the road in buggy car
rying $500 in cash with which TO
pay off some Of their men employed
on construction work along the line
of the Wabash Railroad, when sud-
denly an explosion Of dynamite in the
roadway literally tore the rig TO
pieces. killed Ferguson outright and
threw Martin 200 feet and tearing his
left arm almost from the socket. 1t
has been learned that two men sup
posed to be Poles, placed the dyna-
mite in the road for the purpose OF
killing Paymaster Ferguson and had
arranged to explode it by means Of an
electric battery. The satchel contain
ing the money is missing. Two sus-
poets are under arrest in the camp OF
the construction company near the
village, but the farmers Of the section
are securing the country for traces
of the murderers, and believe they
have one Of them at bay in an aband-
oned coal mine about mile and q
half northeast Of West Middletown.
So quickly was everything accom-
plished that the men who are impli-
Gated got away with their booty be-
fore they could be overtaken. al
though the county authorities believe
that II the right men are not those
under arrest they will have little diff
Guilty in taking them.

Farmers In Conference.

Niagara Falls, Special.-The Farm
ers' National Congress assembled here
Tuesday in its twenty-third annual
session, being called to order by Pres
ldent George L. Flanders, OF Albany.
Governor Odell delivered an address OF
welcome, in which he made plea for
good citizenship, saying:
"One Of the first duties OF our coun-
try Is to tight ceaselessly and energet-
ically against all classes who defy law
and whose principles are menace to
society. We do find such people all
over the country. The farmer, the me-
chanic and the professional man are
responsible for such conditions. when
they exist, II they have made no effort
to place within the reach OF all these
penury-stricken people-these dwarfed
intellectualities-th which Is the
basis and foundation Of contentment,
that is decent homes, fair remunera-
ton and hours Of toll that will per-
nit Of social and intellectual enjoy
ment." Mayor Hancock responded Tor
the city, and Harnie Jordan, OF GeoT-
gia, for the farmers.
