SERVING THE DEVIL.

Commenting upon the utterances OF
certain preachers down, East upon the
Thaw trial, the New York Sun has the
following just rebuke:
To be ignorant of the first principles
of evidence and Of law may be pardon
ed in children. To spit upon the dead
well, it is not an agreeable accom-
plishment. To weep over the red hand.
to proclaim the gospel according to
Cain; hear silly lips in the pulpit
breed new murders. These violent
clergymen are using all the power of
their sacred office and of their stand
ing in the community to pull down the
law and to promote murder, an indus
try in which the United States already
stands at the head.
THE APPEAL fully recognizes that
many of the noblest men Of the Nation
are to be found in the pulpit. And it
is equally convinced Of the other fact
that some of the biggest fools extant
are to be found in the same position
as we'll as some Of the meanest
scamps. We quoted recently. the Ian
guage of Georgia preacher who was
hanged for the murder of family

These extracts will probably be a

people, generally, are anxious to get
rid of Afro American labor Such is
not the case. There are many South

and defraud their laborers and such
rascals have a desperate time to pro-

CARRIAGE 1925 YEARS OLD.
Belonged to General Henry Knox and
Is Still in Good Repair.


Is Still in Good Repair.
Doubtless the oldest private carr iage
in existence in the United States to-
day is that which belonged to Major
General Henry Knox Of T.:omaston,
Me. The vehicle is auout 1925 years
old, and in it Gen. knox used to drive
over his vast estate. 1t IS now owned
by Frank B. Hills first Selectman Of
Thomaston, who purchased it of the
Alden Gay estate in 1885. After The
death OF Gen. Knox. which occurred
Oct. 25, 1906, Alden Gays father
bought the carriage of the Knox es-.
tate, and it remained wit hthe Gays
until Mr.. Hills made his purchase.
The carriage, coming rs it does from
so famous a man as WIS Gen. Knox,
first secretary of war under Washing
ten, makes it decidedly valuable and
historic relic. Nor is IT relic IN the
sense OF something That has become
useless, for Mr. Hills takes ride in
this ancient carriage once in while,
and it is almost in as good condition
as the day it came from it's builders.
1t was probably manufactured in
Boston, as Gen. Knox operated packet
line of small sailing vessels between
Boston and Thomn>ton, ant; at that
time there were no carriage builders in
Thomaston.
