Emma Candy Discharged.

The case of Emma Candy, the Is
year-old girl of Culver, charged with
being the mother of the dead infant
found near the Vandalia tracks, some
weeks ago, was called in the juvenile
court at o'clock Tuesday afternoon
before jury. Prosecutor Molter
represented the state and Mr.. Mar
tindale defended the girl. During the
examination of witnesses the prose
cutor abruptly dismissed the case,
claiming that the witnesses upon
whom he had relied for conviction
had reversed their former oral state
ments made out of court. The case
was therefore dismissed and the girl
discharged, She accompanied her
parents to Culver on the evening
train.

The God of Mammon.

When a man so far forgets his
honor as to betray the confidence OF
a child, he is no longer fit to asso-
ciate with his fellow men, but like
King Nebachednezzer, should go

the OK We have known men CD in
this town to hire boys to distribute
papers and then cheat them out of
the little pay promised for their lab
or, and still associate with good cit
liens and pretend TO be as good as

the extreme and an avenging
nemesis will sooner or later overtake
the whelp who is so money hungry
as to do it, "The mills of the gods
grind slowly, but they grind exceed
ing fine"

MEMORIAL DAY.

BY the flow of the inland river,
Whence the fleets of iron have fled,
Where the blades of the green grass
culver,
Asleep are the ranks of the dead
Under the sod and the dew,
Waiting the judgment day,
Under the lilies the blue,
Under the roses the gray"
Over the land today the voice
of a great nation will lose its com
merclal accent and blend in reveren-
tial measure with the spirit of Mem
orial day. Today, from the ocean
shores of the east to the sunset
home at the Golden Gate; from the
rugged boundaries of its northern
lakes to the sea-girt cline of the
Southland, the living roster of a once
mighty army will again march to the
sound of the rolling drum with the
tread of measured feet. What an
armyl Empire wide; in longitude
from Brittania TO the land OF the Az
tecsl But how different is the mis-
sion now from that OF four and a half
decades sincel It's not march from
Atlanta to the sea-" There's no shout
of ION to Richmondi'' There's no
loaded musket or flashing bayonet.
There's no enemy to meet, no slave
mark to erase It's the march of an
army of peace. It's arms, handful
of flowers; its conquest, the blessings
of peace.
Its purpose today, how different
There are no Sc lips, nor hearts
steeled against another. no mastering
roll, or squadron tramping. The
drum is muffled, the hymn a dirge;
the heart, tear AT the graves of
comrades dead this great procession
halts, and on the sodded green, senti-
ment, memory, loyalty, love, give
forth expression. And what a SPLEEN
did Quartet of graces to represent af-
lection They mark a high civiliza-
ton. The sentiment is born of heav-
en- that does homage to the memory
of the worthy dead. 1t lifts humanity
to higher plane. 1t YIELDS people
and nation by closer ties than con-
sanguinity. 1t is the mark of the
onward and upward progress of the
race
And SO it is, that on his suspicious
day when the nation cast its wreaths
on the graves of its dead defenders,
there comes back, in the very fitness
of things, to the nation and to the
individual life as we'll newborn
inspiration, diviner sentiment, a
better heritage to the on-coming gen
Grafton, that blesses the life for what
it has done. Tie nation will tomor-
row be better for what it has done
today. The Individual life will be bet
ter for the tribute of gratitude it has
paid today. The reward of duty
performed comes back in this life. to
the doer While the meaning and
purpose of memorial day is that OF
loving, loyal tribute, there is in the
very essence of the sentiment a react
ing power that blesses both nation
and people for the deed
