After Big Game.

The recent indictments returned
against Alfred and David Morris,
Albert Baldwin. ST., and Frank #.
Howard, at Mobile, Ala, for con.
spring to violate the Anti-Lottery
law, have recalled the days when
the lottery business was at the
heighth of its career in the South.
These four men, bankers and capt.
t~alists, who are all rated as million
aires. are charged with being the
owners Of the Honduras lottery,
whose earnings in the United States
are said to have aggregated $500, 600
per month.
Alfred Hennen Morris and David
Hcnnen Morris, the latter of whom
married one of the Vanderbilts, are
sons of the late John A Morris,
whose father was the Louisiana lot
terry king. 1t was through the late
Charles II. Howard. father Of Frank
L. Howard, one Of the men indicted,
that the elder Morris and his asso-
ciates, among them A. Baldwin, ST.,
secured from a reconstruction legis-
lature, the charter Of the Louisiana
Lottery company for period of IS
years.
The elder Howard managed the
campaign before the legislature, and
later was the President of the com
pany, holding that office until his
death, when he was succeeded by
Paul Conrad. who remained Presi-
dent until the death by limi-
tation, of the company. In it's
halcon days the Louisiana Lottery
%company's possible receipts were
$1,000, 900 a month, aggregate prizes
about 60 per cent, thereof, but
unsold tickets were always put in
the wheel and often drew the priz-
es, the largest of which i'm the
palmiest days was $500, 900.

THE colorcd people throw away a
great deal Of their hard earned mon
ely in riotous living. On last Tuesday
Frank Fielder, a colorcd man from
Bowman ncighborhood, undertook
to paint Orangcburg red, and as a
consequence he fell into the hands
Of the guardians of the peace. He
had acted SO outrageously that May
or Doyle determined to make an OK
ample of him. So he fined him on
different counts $3.50, which Fielder
paid. This is a pretty big sum for
a man of Fclder's means to blow in
in one night. Two other colored sin
ners contributed thirty dollars to the
cxchequer of the city for helping
Fielder in his effort to paint things
red.---Thc Times and Democrat.

Wife descrtion is a cowardl

Wife desertion is a cowardly
thing and deserves punishment, but
it is to be doubted whether putting
the wife descrtcr in the penitentiary
would not make the lot of the wife
harder than ever. SO long as a
man is at liberty there is a chance
of making him support his wife,
but if he is in the pcnitentiary
that chance v%anishes. The problem
is to compel men to support the wo-
men to whom they are married.
Putting them in a position where
they have no earning capacity will
hardly accomplish the desired end.

Shun Tainted Money.

William Jennings Bryan has
praises for churches and colleges
that refuse to take morcy that has
been made by dishonest means. He
spoke recently in the New National
theater, Washington, d. c., under
the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. He
took for his subject the prince OF
Peace"
Zone of our rich men," he said
has reached a point where he some.
times finds difficulty to find people
to take his money. And that | re
gard as the best evidence of the
growth of a moral sentiment in this
country. 1t means something when
a great church pauses, hcsitates, re-
fnses TO accept the money until it
knows how it is made.
81 believe the time will come when
churches and colleges will refuse to
go into partnership in the spending
of money immorally made. The in
f%luence of that public opinion will
be powerful factorin the restoring
of righteousness. These institu-
tons should say to a man: You do
not make your money honestly, we
will not share the odium with you.''
