to the constitution of this State be and the
same Is hereby proposed, and when the same
shall be agreed to by majority of the men,
bers elected to the Senate and House of AS

A PRIvATE'S HERolSM.


Carried Water to Wounded Soldiers In
the Face of Death.
1t Is one of the anomalies of war
that, although it stirs the savage ma
ture of mankind, 1t also calls out the
highest qualities of courage, unselfish-
ness and devotion. Many a deed Of
martial heroism Is done in the name Of
tie. No description of fierce charge,
says the Youths Companion, records
more determined valor than does the
story Of Richard Kirkl&ld as told by
General Kershaw.
Kershaw was private who served
In the South Carolina volunteers dur
ing the civil war. After the bloody
battle of Fredericksburg his brigade
occupied the road near the field. One
hundred and fifty yards beyond the
field lay the Federal troops, and be-
tween the ground was covered by the
dead and dying. All day long the air
was rent with the cries and groans Of
the wounded and the pitiful calls
water! Waterp
In the afternoon as General KerShaw
sat In the upper room of his head
quarters overlooking the field Kirkland
asked permission to speak to him.
General" said the young man, Il
can't stand it"
"Stand what, sergeantY
"AIl night and all day I've heard
those poor people crying for water. I
came to ask permission to give them
a drink"
kirkland" responded the general,
don't you know that If you ever step
over that wall you'll get bullet In
your headY
IL know 1t, but am willing to try"
The general considered a moment
Il ought not 10 allow you to run such
a risk" he said, "but cannot refuse
your request Trusting God will pro
teet you, you may go"
The sergeant's eyes lighted with
pleasure
'Thank you, SIR he said heartily
and ran down the stairs. When he
reached the bottom of the flight he
hesitated, turned and ran up again.
General, can 1 show the white
handkerchief
The general slowly shook his head.
mo, Kirkland, you can't do that"
.An right I'll take the chance"
and he was Off again.
From the windows of the house the
officers watched him run across the
o1f H. No do
his way quickly to the nearest suf-
ferer, raised the poor fellows head
ON his arm and gave him long drink
Of cool water.
From one he went to another until
his purpose was 80 plain in the eyes
Of the Federals that all danger was
over.
From all parts of the field came the
pfteous appeals; again and again Kirk
land had to return for water, and he
spent an hour and a half in minister
ing to the needs of the wounded.
Then he reJoined his company unhurt.
At Chickamauga Kirkland fell His
example was one which dignifed all
humanity.
But" Slid the inqufsitfve bachelor
after the baby had been carefully
placed In his arms, where does she
get her blue eyesf Yours are dark,
and so are her papa's."

planned, "she inherits them from my
side of the family. My brother Wills
wife has just such eyes exactly

e mere myths

For some months there has been con-
fined in our county jail a man charged
with killing another man. In addition to
his being incarcerated there have been
several others detained as witnesses at a
cost of dollar per day each for witness
The defendant was placed on trial on
Tuesday and after very careful hearing
the jury declared their inability to agree
and were discharged. The defendant was
returned to the jail. the witnesses will still
be kept in prison and all because one man
could not make the other eleven see his
way of thinking The jury stood eleven
for conviction and one for acquittal. The
case will have to be tried again and the
bill of expense will continue to accumu-
tate. The standing of the jury reminds
us of story related some time since. A
jury was out and 1t looked as If it would
be out all night. The sheriff went to the
room and said to the foreman: well, /
suppose ! will have to prepare supper for
you ?" Eyes" said the foreman, '.order
eleven suppers and one bundle of hay"
|
ONE OF the best acts that has been re-
corded lately was the finding of the YER
dict in the case in Court last week, gener
ally known as the christian Science
case. The jury. after a short deliberation,
declared the parents of dead child guilty
of manslaughter. The offence consisted
in failure to call a physician in time to
treat the child for disease which ended
fatally. The defence claimed that the
parents had the right to follow any relig-
ious belief that seemed right to them, and
to adhere to its tenets without interference
by any other person or authority. In a
certain sense this may be correct. The
right to religious belief is accorded to all,
but when such belief resolves itself into
neglect of the health of innocent persons,
in this case helpless little child, 1t is time
for the law to step in and assert itself.
The verdict rendered on Thursday was
not only q judgment on the parents, but
it was intended for a protection to the en-
tire public. There is no desire to have
Christian Science become one Of the in
stitutions of this community In 1895
there was similar case before the court.
The father and mother of the child had
left the jurisdiction of the court and the
evidence showed that woman follower
of the faith had been in constant attend
ance, no physician being at any time
called. The grand jury found bill
against the so-called healer, and while
there was doubt If conviction could be
secured on the evidence presented, it was
agreed that there was enough proof on
which to indict and that if nothing else
resulted 1t would be a good thing if the
Scientists were given to understand that
they could not get foothold In this sec
ton. The indicted woman kept herself
scarce and this last case is the first that
has come to public notice since then. Just
what the judgment of the court will be in
passing sentence is, of course, not known,
but it is absolutely certain that the law.
abiding people of Burlington county do
not approve of neglect of helpless child
rem through some mistaken religious idea
of the parents.

WHEREVER he has gone Hon. John
Franklin Fort has been received with en-
thusiasm and his outspoken utterances on
the questions that are the uppermost topics
of the day have gained him friends all
over the state. He leaves no room for
doubt where he stands on the point of the
excise law. He is for the bishops bill and
will see that the law is enforced if he is
elected. The Democratic candidate has
not spoken so openly on that point. He
talks on the frauds the Democratic inves-
tigators are supposed to have unearthed,
but that is of minor Importance to many
people in this state, who think the sacred
ness of the Sabbath is of vastly more
value than matters that may turn out to
be mere myths.
