Yesterday morning by Messrs T Mo-
Oan's Stewart aud CA Long. for

WILLIE CALVIN MUST
HANG FOR HIS CRIME.
Supreme Court Dismisses Plea of
Murderer for New Trial.

Supreme Court Dismisses Plea of
Murderer for a New Trial.
For the murder of his paramour,
Rosa Pace, Willie Calvin, colored, will
be hanged.
The execution will probably take
place early in June, though Judge Sea-
brook has not yet pronounced sentence.
Sentence will be pronounced as soon
as the remittitur is received from the
Supreme Court.
Calvin was convicted of the murder
of the Pace woman some time ago. An
appeal was taken to the Supreme Court
by his attorneys and a new trial or
dered. Again a conviction was secured
by the state. On notice that errors
complained of would be taken to the
Supreme Court again for review, Judge
Seabrook granted supercedeas.
When the case was called in the SUI
preme Court, no attorneys appeared
for Calvin, and the appeal was dis
missed.
The crime for which Calvin was con-
victed was one of the most brutal on
the criminal records of the county.
Prompted by no other motive than
jealousy, the murderer threw the wom-
an across his knee and cut her throat
from ear to ear. At the trial it was
brought out that the cash was large
enough for the hand to be inserted.

"RETRIBUTION" WAS
SUBJECT OF SERMON
By Rev d. r.. Christie at First Bap-
fist Church Last Night.

At the First Baptist Church last
night the subject of the special SER
mon by Rev. DIR. Christie was "Retri-
button" The sermon was built on the
text taken from Galatians vi, Z:
Whatsoever a man sows, that shall
he also reap" Among other things,
DR.. Christie said:
Justice cannot be robbed. Ones sins
will find him out. We will meet them
in the payment. But Justice is so inn
patient that it will not wait. Retribu-
ton follows up the life demanding the
payment of a natural penalty for ev-
cry transgression. He that soweth to
the flesh shall of the flesh reap cor
ruption.'
Paul simply gives, in the text, an
other statement of the law of cause
and effect, a law that is uniform in
the moral as in the material world.
This law is basic and fundamental.
All statuary enactments are founded
on it. Moral statutes, such as those
contained in the Decalogue are not
vindictive, but merciful, since expert

Likewise the church, in advising
against certain lines of conduct, ex-
ercises no arbitrary prerogative, but
the experience of the ages attests that
the practice it condemns inevitably re-

natural law that everything bring forth
fruit after its kind, and it is a chance

intemperance and reap intemperance,

shame and ruin. Sow Righteousness
and reap RIGHTEOUSNESS with it's accom-
paniments, uncleanness, disease and
death.
"Others reap what we SOW. The in
nocent suffer for the sins of the guilty.
If only the offender reaped the full
harvest, it would not be so dreadful
And it does not end with one genera
