soME PIous MEN ARRoAp.

Mr.. William L. Curtis writes that
Americans In Manila set the natives a
bad example by not going to church
Men who were outwardly very pious
when they were in the United States
among their families and neighbors
begin to give ungodly clubs the prefer
ence on Sunday over places Of worship
as 500 as they reach the Philippines,
The same sort of thing may any time
be seen here at home, The rural dea-
can who never misses q service Of the
church in which it is his duty regularly
to take up the collection often finds,
when he goes to the city, unaccompan
led by his wife or children, that there
are other places more attractive than
a meeting house, and other things
mere interesting than q sermon.
While his good wife at home is reflect
ing wish pleasure upon the excellent
opportunity her spouse is enjoying to
hear the eloquent preachers In the city,
it lie not impossible that that honest
man isloopingt the loop at a park, The
conduct Of the Okolona man in st.
Louis OF Memphis, like that of the man
from another town OF city who is here,
is very likely to be somewhat less exc
emplary than II he was under his own
vine and 6g tree.
No doubt these differences between
the actions of q mar in Manila and of
the same man in the United States, Of
the. citizen Of Squedunk and Of the
same citizen in Memphis. are partly
due to the love Of change and novelty.
Many men from the country disdain
such common articles Of diet as bread,
boiled potatoes, round steak and black
coffee when they r stopping at q city
hotel. They can get plenty Of them at
home. When they are away from
home they regale themselves on moth
ing less palatable and indigestible than
lobster, clam chewder, rich puddings
and cognac. 1t is in much the same
spirit that many who go dutifully to
church when ct home go to Coney
Island whsn in New York.
But the main reason Of the diRer-
ence between the actions OF some men
81 home and away from home they are
under the close surveillance Of their
families and acquaintance while away
from home they are not. There are
many people who do the right and the
proper thing because II Is right and
proper. There are also many who do
it because they think those who know
them would think and speak IN Of them
if they did otherwise and this would
lower their religious and social stand-
ing and might hurt Them IN their bust
ness. The virtue and piety which
8 man keeps only to impress bis family
and his neighbors, and leaves at
home when be goes away, is not .
very admirable article, but it is not al
together TO be dsspised. Il Is better
FOR 3 nan TO act decently and piously
only because wants other people to
think be is decent and pious than for
him not to act . ct all.

CASES DISMISSED

THROWN OUT OF COURT
ENTIRELY.

In the suits Auditors Agent Frank
Lucas brought here against the three
local state banks for back taxes, Coun-
ty Judge II. L. Lightfoot has decided
that the agent had NO right to bring
the suits without authority of the
auditor, and dismissed them. He did
not pass on any other question, and
unless the auditors ngent desires to
appeal the case, there will be nothing
further done in these cases until the
court of appeals decides the test case
from Louisville, which is to settle all
the cases. Judge Lightfoot's decision
differs from most of the other de-
cisions in these cases in that he holds
the agent can not prosecute such
actions without the sanction of the
auditor, and after the auditor has
asked for their dismissal. The Louis.
willie courts held the opposite on PASS

JAPANESE EXECUTED
OFFICERS STOOD THE ORDEAL
LIKE MEN UNAFRAID.

st. Petersburg, May l9.-Details
have been received here from Hardin
regarding the execution, April 81, Of
the two Japanese offers, Yu Koka and
Oki, for attempting TO dynamite
bridges and destroy telegraph com
muniation on the Eastern China rail
way.
The prisoners admitted they were
part of detail. numbering 100 men
whose purpose it was to destroy the
railway at various points. When
told that they must have beeu ex-
tremely brave people they replied; q.
"Not at all; we were only carrying
out our duty aud the order of the
mikado."
Both prisoners were executed April
81 between the new and old towns Of
Hsrbin in the presence of large
crowd. They were shot instead of
being hanged, upon order of Gen.
Kuropatkin. A strong guard was
thrown about the spot to hold back
the public at distance of 400 yards.
No photographs were allowed to be
taken.
The younger prisoner refused to
allow the bandaging of his eyes.
When told it was necessary, according
to Russian law, he asked that an ex-
ception be made in his favor. The
elder japanese, staff officer, wept
and faint ed, but finally allowed
himself to be blindfolded calmly. One
of the men was catholic and made
his last confession to Russian priest,
there being no representative Of the
Catholic priesthood in Hardin.
