 Don't Nellie" he said, rather ab- sently. She did not answer. It seem ed to her as if she were girl again: and she could not now shake from hei' the return of the old. warm love for the man. She tried and tried. Ever the memory and the dim picture of the little mounds in the old churchyard. and all these meant and had meant, which recalled with an effort and for a pur- pose, did not aid her.
 The crisis had passed. She could have thrown herself into those arms and rested there indefinitely 5'
 Then she, sobbed. The man heard it not, for her sobs were we'll suppressed. And presently the man did hear them.
 Far out in the blackness there was a single. dim spot of light for him. In this he saw, half-hiddden in the twi- light of yesterday, a slight eminence in 6 churchyard. And. there. to the left of the path, bordered with grass and flowers, were two mounds--a tiny one and another a bit longer.

To him the memory of former years. when he had the baby and it's mother. suddenly had become SO dear and precious that he would never again tarnish them. Then, too, he had the woman's answer---as he saw the answer.
 To. her the vision of the past, with only one single incident---she could now call 1t an '.incident"---to interrupt all the sweetness of it, was but the foundation for a happy. long future.

 The woman's eyes suddenly fiIled with look suggestive of the eyes of IrLgnteneu doe. Heipiessly, fortorn- ly. she looked at the man, but could see nothing. It was so dark everywhere. Then in the flash of a moment, she understood. She had been dashed from an almost incredible height. fsut she reached the level easly--her for mer level. She came to his side and together they wanderd slowly, with out a word, to the cottages beyond the beach.

Formcr Actlon Reacinded.

A special meeting of the Board of County Commissioners was held, last night, and the only thing accomplished was to call in the permit granted to E. H. Kelly. colored. to establish a sa- loon at the corner of ZarragosBa and Tarragona Streets. This is quiet and respectable neighborhood, and the cit- izens who have young children have entered a protest against the granting of the permit. The commissioners, at a previous meeting, and before the fact of the protests was known. granted the permit, but as soon as 1t became evi- dent that the place would be for ne- groes, and that 1t was liable to become nuisance, the objection was needed. The stock for the saloon has been re- Ing.

FRIDAY, JANUARY 90, 1904

A decision has been rendered in the
United States Courts which will be far
reaching in its effect, and enable shippers
to hold those arrogant transportation cor
porations, the railroads, responsible for
freight, etc., sent over their lines. The
decision handed down by Judge Acheson
is that under the present methods of doing
business railroad company is respon-
sible for the full value of goods lost IN
transit, notwithstanding the printing or
stamping of clause on the face OF the
bill of lading calling for maximum al
lowance for release, unless the agreement
as to value shall have been made between
the railroad and the shipper, and also
agreement as to freight rate, and the sig
nature Of the shipper secured to the
agreement.

Congratulations.

Mr.. John H. Cullom, Editor of the
Garland, Texas. Meas, has written let
ter of congratulations to the manufac-
turers of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
as follows !: Sixteen years ago when our
first child was baby he was subject
to croupy spells and we would be very
uneasy about him. We began using
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy in 1887,
and finding it such reliable remedy for
colds and crop, we have never been with.
out it in the house since that time. We
have five children and have given it to all
of them with good results. One good
feature of this remedy is that it is not dis
agreeable to take and our babies really
like it. Another is that it is not danger
Gus, and there is no risk from giving an
overdose. / congratulate you upon the
success of your remedy" For sale by

Prosperity for the Wealthy.

The claim is being repeatedly made in
Congress by republican leaders that there
were never more prosperous times in this
country than at present, and that the
working man can get all the work he
wants at good wages. Representative
Baker, of Brooklyn, in a recent speech in
the House, refuted this claim, declaring
that there was no longer prosperity in the
United States except for one class, and
that there is growing army of unem-
ployed. He quoted statistics showing
that the cost of living has gone up 81 per
cent during this period of so-called pros
porous times, while at best wages have
not gone up more than 10 per cent. A
wage that gives to the worker one-fourth
of the increase, and compells him to pay
three times that increase in the cost of
his commodities could hardly be called
compromising.
In the course of his speech Represen.
tative Baker, in citing the immense for
tunes of the few who are reaping the full
measure of this unequal prosperity said /:
"It would not be possible for John D.
Rockefeller to throw away his income in
silver dollars if he began on January I
and devoted every moment of the year to
the end of December 81 to it. Yes, pros
perity has come during the past four
years to these men, who have got control
of the government monopolies. 1t has
enabled those men to foist upon the
American people so-called securities,
three quarters of which is water, and the
American people are finding that they
cannot digest that water"
No less parsonage than Abraham
Lincoln said that prosperity breeds ty-
rants. If the many cannot share in
national prosperity it is curse rather
than blessing, as limited to the few and
denied to the many, it aggravates class
inequality and of necessity either leads to
tyranny or anarchy.

Amoss, Director of Institutes of Mary

largely attended. These Institutes have
steadily grown in popularity with our
farmers since their organization, and are
looked forward to each year with a great
deal of expectancy.
They have become firmly established
with oar progressive, thinking agricul-
turists as a means of practical and profit
able instruction, affording as they do an
opportunity to them to come in close
touch with men of wide reputation, who
have successfully demonstrated the worth
of improved and scientific methods as
applied to the farm, and give their au-
dience in practical talks and suggestions
the benefit of their careful research in the
various branches of agricultural pursuits.
All those interested in. the farm, dairy
and kindred subjects who can possibly do
so, should, and doubtless will, attend

The liquor men, beaten in their attempt
to overthrow the prohibitory law in Cecil
county by having it declared unconstitu-
tional, have resorted to another means by
which they hope to overcome the power
of the present law. The latest scheme
Matched out by this band of conspirators
whose every energy is bent toward defeat
ing and rendering null any and every
law ever enacted for the restriction or
regulation of their nefarious traffic, is to
petition the Legislature for form of law
which would permit the towns or districts
of the county to vote separately on the
question. and not be controlled by the
majority vote in the county. as at present,
well knowing that in some of the districts
they would be able to win and open the
doors of the legalized grog shop.
The temperance people of the county
should impress strongly upon our Dele
gates in the General Assembly the fact
that public sentiment is overwhelmingly
opposed to any tinkering with the law,
and warn them to keep sharp lookout
for an attempt to smuggle through the
Legislature, under the guise of an "Im-
provement" measure or what not, any bill
whose provisions would result in the un-
doing of the law at present in force. Lit
tie can be hoped for in the Senate for the
protection of the temperance measure in
our county, end it is doubly important
that our representatives in the House OF
Delegates be on the alert that they are
not tricked into lending their support to
any bill that may have skilfully hidden
in it some section which would result in
the defeat of the present prohibitory law.

The Senatorial Fiqht.

The General Assembly of Maryland is
in the midst of the most exciting contest
for the election of United States Senator
that has occurred since 1884, when Thos.
]. Heating the organizationi.candidate
was opposed by Judge Robinson. At that
time balloting had been in progress two
weeks before the::deadlock was broken by
the election of dark horse.
In the present contest Ex-Governor
John Walter Smith, who was the organ
ization favorite, is opposed by .Isidor
Rayner. IT had been passed around that
Rayner developing unexpected strength,
had compelled the organization to look
for dark horse, Bernard Carter, the
railroad corporation lawyer, having been
picked as the man to be nominated in
caucus. But the attempt to settle the
fight in caucus was frustrated by Smith
and Rayner combining forces and COM
pellinglan adjournment beforelany such
move could be made. From the fact that
that shrewd manipulation, Arthur P. Cor
man, is behind the deal this apparent
desertion of Smith for Carter takes on a
suspicious look, with the impression that
the Ex-Governor still holds the key to the
situation, while Carter, sincere in his own
candidacy, is being used as stool-pigeon,
to enable the organization to hold the
votes and land their man when the oppo-
sition has exhausted all theirj resources
and been convinced of the futility of their
efforts to elect their candidate.

Prominent citizens throughout
Ellis county are setting on foot a
movement to induce an officer OF
the county who will retire this year
to submit his name to the voters as
a candidate for the legislature. This
movement was started only vester-

already developed. Should the
party respond to the solicitations of
his friends and enter the contest he
will no doubt make a lively race.
He is well qualified for the office
and would make Ellis county a good
