Need OF Homo mis- sJonsrjos

We sorrow for the Siberian exile, who
OF course never committed crime, and
we read tales OF fiction of his heroic en-
durance and patient slave labor in a
temperature that sent the mercury
down to cuddle in heap so degrees be-
low zero, yet in Bay City, Mich, as late
as last week, the truant officer found a
family, of whom the husband and one
child were sick; there was no fuel in the
house and the children were kept in
bed for warmth, the mother being UNI
able to seek outside assistance, having
no shoes in which to wade the slush.
Some provisions and fuel were left at
the house for temporary relief. In the
midst of our sad song of "Greenland's
Icy Mountains" and The Siberian Ex-
ile," we might pause sometimes and
lend assistance and q few stanzas Of
heart ache to the inmates OF frozen
huts in our own beloved freeland. Why
search for misery abroad when we can
find stacks of it at home?

Now IT'S q Disease

Is love a disease? is question which
some of the London papers have been
thrashing out more or less satisfactory
for some time past and now the Lancet
has gravely contributed to the discus
sion.
This medical weekly declares that
the idea of love being really disease
has the sanction of venerable antiquity
and apart from the Greek and Roman
classics is also commonplace of the
seventeenth century writers on medl-
cine.
The Lancet goes on to quote num-
Der of authorities from Galen to Lar
stius and concludes thus:
"The Dutch and Flemish painters OF
the later half Of the same century found
in love sickness favorite subject for
some of their paintings. Lads suffer.
ing from this disease are accurate por-
trayals of the anaemic condition"

Second Love

The most observant students Of hui
man nature, and those who most cor
rectly read the history Of the heart,
seem to be agreed that the first love
is NOT the best love. BY them this
passion is portrayed as coming to those
who experience it for second time
with feryor. strength, Intensity and
capacity for patient waiting such
as it rarely has in its earlier mapifesta-
ton This is truth so generally
recognized that it has passed into an
adage that the second wife or husband
is more priced than the first. Some
indeed do not love either the one or
the other, for we err if we always infer
love because there has been a mar
riage. Many men and women are in
capable of this greatest and purest OF
sentiments. OF those endowed with
a capacity Of this kind there is most
generally romantic, demonstrative
and rather foolish sentiment proceed
ing the deep, abiding affection which
is to continue through life. Not few
marry upon this and find, all too late,
that what they conceived to be love
was but the impulse of an undisciplined
heart. Such a mistake Dickens has
with mastery skill described in David
Copperfield's marriage to Dora Spenlow.
Thackeray has with more artistic touch
shown how Lady Castlewood gradually
lost; the love which she had given in
profusion to the husband of her youth
and began to cultivate purer
and more rational affection for the
plain but wise little boy who worshiped
her from the moment he first saw her.
In his Amelia Osbourne too he assigns
to that love-which she offered to poor
Dobbin after his long, patient waiting
a higher rank than that blind and fool
ish homage which she had given to
that graceless scamp, George Osborne
Our female Shakespeare, George Elliot,
also gives to second love preference
over the first. Adam Bedes' fondness
for the pretty, kitten-like beauty o.
Hettie is all along spoken OF as silly
His affection for Dinah Is marked by 9
depth and fervor worthy of his mature

A cssoter on Precious stones

A Mr.. Streeter we'll known Lon
don ieweler, who in retiring from
business owing to failing. eyesight, gave
some chatty "reminiscences of his exper-
fences, which began in ls46. A Street.
,er Sr., by the way, was in business as a
jeweler in the reign of Queen Anne.
1t was the present Mr.. Streeter who
practically satisfied the world that dia-
monds were to be found in South Afri-
ca. He was nearly ruined by the food
ing OF the market with Cape diamonds;
but nowadays, as he said the other day,
diamonds are as dear as ever and
they will be dearer still, for, owing to
labor disputes, it is not probable that
many diamonds will be cut this year in
Amsterdam. Then there are no Bra
LILLIAN diamonds"
There are very few nov either from
Brazil or India. The mines do not pay
to work.
SIS the diamond still the most fash
ionable stone?' Mr.. Streeter was asked.
"No, the emerald; as the colored
stone must have few diamonds 10
throw it up. Emeralds, when was a
youngster, were $40 carat. To-day a
fine stone is worth $4,000 A 2o-grain
pearl I used to sell at $40. To-day it
would be worth $4,000. Rubies and
sapphires have gone up also, but not SO
much in proportion.
During your long experience some
stones must have come in and gone out
OF favor"
Eyes the cat's-eye for example.

Then there was the Alexanderite. l
named it after the then Emperor of
Russia. 1t is stone which is green in
daylight and red at night
"What about the settings9"
They are lighter than they used to
be- The fashion is to set precious
stones in platinum, because platinum
never furnishes. I don't think with
platinum we get as much brilliancy out
of the stone as with silver, but silver in
foggy weather goes black. Never buy
a diamond set in gold. Ifyou see one
in gold mount you may be suspicious.
A yellow stone painted with black ink
looks white, and it is then set in gold.
That is the way in which many pawn
brokers in the North have been taken
in. Yellow diamonds, except they are
very fine, do not sell even. In India
or Burmah they all want white

had been stolen by means of muff,
which it's owner held over the case

opened and snapped up a brooch. La
ter woman was arrested, but she had
sent the big diamond to America, and,
though it was traced, it was never re-
covered Mr.. Streeter said the largest
diamond he had ever seen, weighed
ABOUT 1000 carats, and was owned by a
syndicate of dealers. It's value COM
plete would be about S25, 200, 900, but
it is now being cut up.

Live In tho s-esent, Forget tire Past


Life is too short to remember things
that would prevent ones doing ones
best.
Forgetting the things that are be-
hind press forward" said brave old
man of the First Century.
Usually old men live largely in the
past, but this old man lived in the fu-
ture.
He was a good forgotten.
Many of us fail because we do not for
get. We remember our failures and
they hamper US. We remember our
victories and they make US vain. We
remember our enemies and fritter away
valuable time trying to get even with
them. But
The successful man forgets.
He knows the past is irrevocable. He
lets the dead past bury its dead. He is
in too much of hurry to attend the
funeral of his hopes. He is running a
race. He cannot afford to look behind.
His eye is on the winning post.
The magnanimous man forgets.
He is too big to let little things dis
turb him. He forgives quickly and for
gets easily. If anyone does him a
wrong he considers the source and
keeps sweet. 1t is only your small man
who cherishes low revenge. Or an
Indian. The Indian never forgets and
because he never forgets he is forever
wanting to pay somebody back, he never
gets on.
BE good forgotten.
Bigness dictates it, and
Success demands it.

THREE MET DOOM
The Chicago Toy Novelty
Works Blown Up by
an Explosion.
IN the Associated Press.l


Chicago, March 15.-Three persons, two
of them being boys, were killed and eight
other employees were injured today by an
explosion which completely demolished
the two-story brick manufacturing plant
of the Chicago Toy Novelty Company at
Western Avenue and West 18th street.
The wrecked building caught fire imme-
diatcly after the explosion, and the bod
les of the dead were so badly burned and
margled that it was impossible to recog-
nizc them except by remnants of cloth
ing.
The building was occupied by three
firms, employing nearly 100 persons, and
it is believed some others may have been
killed, but until the debris, which is piled
twenty feet high, can be cleared away the
exact number of dead cannot be ascer-
tanned.
The known dead are:
HARRY JORDAN, foreman, blown
through second story window.
ALEXANDER J. tWILNSKI, Is years
of age blown through window by cXplos-
ION.
JOSEPH BENDOWSKY, II years old;
burned to death in building.

THE ARGUMENT.

The argument was begun by Mr.. w. w.
CLARK, who urged that no conspiracy had
been shown and that the prisoner ought
&c be discharged. He reviewed the con-
d,tion of the road and argued that Me-
was doing great things for it, that the
State had let it go to ruin. He insisted
that all McBee was after was to have
the road lased and that he had done moth
ing wrong.
MIR. C. w. Tillett next spoke vigorous
ly, claiming that the McBee and Finch
business was the most outrageous ever
known in the State. He insisted that a
conspiracy had been shown and pointed
this out in strong terms. He presented
various phases OF the case IN support
of his argument.
Attorney General Gilmer closed for the
State. He read the law OF conspiracy
showed how it fitted the case and applied
it to McBce. He showed how in the Finch
bill of complaint they had not observed
the law, and with earnestness born of his
cause spoke of the danger to the State
frcm such proceedings. In strong sum
mjng up he urged that McBee be held
for court.
Ex-Judge w. S. OBJ. Robinson closed
for the defendant He did not argue at
length, but applied much popularity and
huror to the case and told jokes that
caused the Chief Justice and everybody
to laugh. He said no case had been made
and that the prisoner should be dismissed.
Chief Justice Clark announced that he
found probable cause, and would send
the case to the next term OF Wake Grim
inal court. He placed the bond OF Capt.
McPee at $4,000 This was later given by
Messrs. NJ. T. Leach and J. R. Chamber
lain, both of Raleigh.
Capt. McBce will remain hare till to-
morrow for the hearing before Judge
Simonton in the Federal Court in the
matter of vacating the recaivership.
Sheriff Biddle left this morning for New
Bern, as his prisoner is now under bond
to appear here at the next term of the
criminal court, which begins on the 28th
of this month.
