Sayagery in Georgia.

Charlotte News
The recent birth of the heir to the
throne OF all the Russias was made
the occasion for the PRONUNCIATION OF
am imperial ukase, forbidding cor
poraI punishment in the empire. The
AngIo-SaXOn instincts of humanity
have also condemned ''cruel and I'M
usual punishments." In Georgia, a
Southern State of the American
Union. two negroes were burned to
death at the stake, although con-
dcmncd to capital punishment i'll Il
few weeks.
1t should he remembered in Justice
that the burning of the negroes was
not the first act of savagery. The
burning of all the members OF a white
family, father, mother and several
children, by the negroes, 1T not being
known whether the victims were alive
or dead or whether worse than death
was not first committed upon the
white woman, was the savagery that
provoked. The savagery that re-
SpOndcd WAS the burning at the stake
OF two criminals and the shooting to
death OF one or more implicated in a
conspiracy to murder all the white
people of the community. But saw
ace instincts we're lOOSed in both in
stances and the ashes around that
pine stump are Il blot upon our civil
izatiOn. LaWlesSness was punished
not by law but by more lawlessness
and the death of two criminals null
tipIied instead of diminished the
number of criminals in the cOmmun-
ity.
The British i'll India under similar
provocation, fearing for their own
wives and children, tied their HindOO
captives to the mouths OF cannon
and fired them off into space. 1t was
Il more merciful death than that at
the stake, and also a more spectacu-
lar one. Doubtless the feeling at
bottom i'll both cases is the same,
the desire to impress the survivors
with the terrOrs of the white man 8
revenge. The race feeling is also q
strong element in such vengeance as
it is in the crime that provOkes it
and the sympathy that conceals the
criminals.
What is the remedy? Denunciation
is easy. What about prevention? Is
the trouble the essential one OF try
iny to govern the negroes by the
Anglo-Saxon laws OF the Twentieth
Century, rather than by the laws OF
Moses. with the eye for an eye, a
tooth for a tooth, and death by fire
prescribed for certain Outrages? Is
the trouble with the education of the
negro as that education has been
given him. without the accompany
ing restraints or morality and re-
li@ion?
Whatever the trouble, it is worthy
OF the best thought of the patriot to
find it and eradicate it. Such con-
tempt of law and of military author.
ity rs has been manifested in Georgia
breeds anarcy finally, when the life OF
no Innocent man, white or black, is
safe from the mob.

the undertaking to patriotic and
liberal North Carolinians everywhere.

IS CONSUMPTION CURABLE?

Yes! If RYDALE'S ELIXIR is used in time;
before too much of the lung tissue is involved.
This modern, scientific medicine removes all
lungs to the surface and expels them from the
system. 1t aids expectoration, heals the III
cerated surfaces, relieves the cough and makes
breathing easy. RYDALES ELIXIR does
not dry the mucous surface and thus stop the
cough. Its action is inst the opposte-it
stimulates and soothes. 1t kills the germs
that cause chronic throat and lung disease
and thus aids nature to restore these organs
to health. Trial size 25c. Large size SOC
The large size holds 212 times the trial size.

Judae Parker's Personality.
From Alton B. Parker: A Character Sketch,
by James Creelman, in American Monthly
Review of Reviews for August

From Alton B. Parker A Character Sketch,
by James Creelman, in American Monthly
Review of Reviews for August.
The Chief Judge Of the Court OF
Appeals of New York is a man OF i'm
pressive stature and handsome ap-
pearance. He is six feet tall, weighs
one hundred and ninety-six pounds,
and has theproportions OF an athlete.
He was fifty-two years old on May
18th. He has a large head and the
face of a country-bred gentleman
strong. fresh-colored and unwrinkled.
There is a singular suggestion OF
power, courage, and good nature in
his personality. The eyes are large,
brown and luminous-sincere and dl-
rect. The nose is aquiline, the Jaws
large and curved, and the chin round
and massive. The teeth are big and
white, the lower lip heavy and pro-
truding, and the thick mustache
coarse and tawny. The Judge has a
wide, high forehead. The top head
indicates penetration, energy, benev-
Olence, reverence, and tirmnesS. The
hair is reddish-brown. 1t is a head
devoid OF eccentricity in its lines
full, even, symmetrical. There is a
simple, unpretending dignity about
the man that fits his massive phys
ique and easy, upright carriage. He
is sober, sincere, unselfish, decent.
Men in every walk of life turn to him
instinctively with confidence. There
is neither exaggeration nor self-con-
seriousness in his speech or manner.
He does not boast. He has a hearty
scorn for heroics. Firm i'll spirit,
even-tempered, charitable in his !udg-
ments of Others, loyal in friendship,
loving work for it's own sake, seeing
in law only the means OF justice and
order, he unites the virilities and the
sObrieties in his strong, modest char
acter He has, too, a native sense OF
humOr that will never permit him to
become pOmpOus.
Judge Parker may be said to be a
man free from eccentricities, unless
intellectual integrity and sound
moral imagination are to be con-
sidered abnormal in an age OF weak
demagOguery He listens well, pa
tiently searches for facts, makes up
his mind slowly, and aims at general
and permanent rather than particu-
lar or temporary results.

Fleming, near Dabney.
Mrs. Fleming was in the eightieth year
OF her age. Her children, with beautiful
and untired devotion cared for her dur
ing all her sickness and surrounded her
with every comfort and attention. She
was favorite with all who knew her
and a large circle of friends mourn her
loss
In the midst of sickness and suffering
they always found her bright and cheer
full, and trouble could not dim her faith
She leaves one son and five daughters,
a number of grandchildren and great
grandchildren, besides numerous other
relatives. Her remains were followed by
a large procession, to the old family
burying ground, where she was laid to
rest.
Fold her o Father, in thine arms
