WHAT THE PAPERS ARE SAYING.

Stoutsville Banner: The easiest thing
in the world is to make mistakes; the hard

Atlanta Constitution: When we get to
the land of content some of US never stop
long enough to recognize it for what it is
worth
Monroe News: The school affairs Of
Ouachita Parish seems to demand full
publicity in place of the sugar coated,
doctored dope handed out in the interest
OF an individual or clique. And politics
should be eliminated.
Orangeburg Times: What great thing
1t would be if all the money spent in South
Carolina for strong drink was put in home
comforts. Many sorrow would be cleared
away and the smile of joy brought to
many sad hearts. Will such time ever
come?
Philadelphia North American: The
most precious of all the possessions of the
American people is the right of local self
government. That is the foundation and

it is that each small community UNDER
stands, better than outsiders can UNDER

gentleman remarked, 81 am amazed to
see how few of these things need" It
is SO in this great, busy world. Of the
million things about us there are but few
that really concern us, that are really es-
sential to our LIES happiness and success.
Many Of them are positively deleterious
in their influence and will work harm if
admitted. 1t is but the smallest number
that we can afford, in our brief stay here,
to take up or to spend time upon.
Hence our whole life, to be wisely or
dered, ought to be one of deliberate, con-
scious, well-considered discrimination and
careful, thoughtful selection. The few
things ii is possible for us to take up should
be chosen conscientiously from the mass,
and should be those which will most enrich
our own lives and leave the most beneficent
and far-reaehing influences on others, and
which shall appear to have been the truest,
fittest, and best when looked back upon
from the eternal shores.

What Will Happen to us in 1908 ?
From the Baltimore Sun.


If Mr.. Lee J. Spangler, of York, Pa. who
continue 10 do business at the old stand, he
ought TO leave something for future operations.
If he is going to destroy the world and the
solar system in the year 1908, there will not
be any great demand for prophecies in 1909
and the employment Of prophets will be ex.
tinct. Mr.. Spangler's program tor the new
year can scarcely be considered short of SEN
satonal. The people are warned that in this
year the treasury will go dry, the bright sun
will be extinguished, and the stars will fall.
Also that mothers.in law and daughters in-aw
will not dwell together in harmony. 1t Nigh
happen that these ladies would fall out and
still the stars might not fall, especially as it has
been limited before now that they do not
always dwell together in unity. But Mr..
Spanger insists. not only that the stars will
fall in the early part of the coming summer,
but that in addition to the inconvenience
which might be occasioned by Jupiter bump.
ing down over our heads, we are to be stung
by locusts and bit by various insects which are
not usually discussed in polite society. But
if we are to be smashed by big planet the
subsequent proceedings of the bugs will IN
terest US very little.
One of the most narrowing of Mr.. Spang.
ler's predictions is that, utterly regardless OF
the Presidents admonition, people will carry
their gold in their pockets instead of deposit.
ing it in banks. This pernicious habit, Mr..
Spangler clearly foresees, will superinduce
theft. Families will steal it from another,
he says, and he explains that this is the gold
that is piled up for the last days and that it
will turn to rust in The pockets. And just
here Mr.. Spangler oversteps the bounds and
over taxes our credulity. We may credit
him when he tells US that the Treasury will
60 dry after the Sixtieth Congress gets in its
| work. We may believe that the stars will
F.. fall. We may credit the statement that bugs
will bite US and that molhers-in-aw and
daughters in law will disagree. But the state
ment that gold will turn to rust in the pockets
OF its possessors, is incredible. The best au.
thorties agree that gold cannot be attacked
| by oxidation. Thieves may break through
and steal ii, but neither moth nor rust can
corrupt it. If Mr.. Spangler persists in such
statements as this, he will surely discredit his
other prophecies.

Newark, N. j., died in the German Hospital

Academy Of Music.

Fresh from long and successful engage.
ment in the East, Mary Mannering will play
a limited engagement at the Academy of
Music, Baltimore, New Year week, in Rda
johnson Young's successfulAmercan comedy,
"Glorious Betsy" undoubtedly the best play
yet from the pen of the noted author of Brown
of Harvard "Boys of Company B." etc.
The production here will be a notable one and
will be under the direction of the Shuberts.
This new play has for its central figure that
radiant belle, Betsy Patterson, whose beauty
and ambition made for her one of the most
brilliant careers ever attained by an American
woman. From Baltimore belle, whose wit,
pride and rather daring independence, made
her the admiring comment of all fashionable
society in America, she sprang suddenly into
international notice by her marriage with Je
rome, the brother of Napoleon Bonaparte,
Just at the time when he was proclaimed EN-
peror of the French.
1t is at the Springs in fashionable Virginia,
that Betsy first meets Captain Bonaparte, who
weary of the endless round of entertainment
and adulation he has received as the guest of
the American nation, has travelled to this out
of the way resort incognto and for whatever
romantic adventure might appeal to youth
of nineteen, full of high spirits and away from
restraint.
JcEOmc UeCOueS INFATUATED Win tle reign
ing belle, Betsy Patterson, and manages to
have himself employed during her stay there
to give her lessons in French. Betsy becomes
intensely interested in her tutor, but her pride
and ambition fight against acknowledging
that she could love man in such an inferior
position.
She coquettes with him however, as she does
with half dozen others, and leaves the
Springs ignorant of Jerome's trne personality,
deeply offended with him because of his re-
fusal to accompany her party to Baltimore
where great preparations are being made for
the reception of Captain Bonaparte. 1t is
here at an elaborate fete given in his honor,
that Betsy first discovers that her tutor and
the much talked of brother of Napoleon are
one. Previous to this discovery, her pride
overcome by the ardent wooing of her sup.
posed tutor, Betsy has confessed her love for
him. The rest of the play deals with their
engagement, the efforts to prevent their mar
riage and the final triumph of the lovers.

I'VE Died For Love.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 25-Leaving a letter
that they had died for love, George A. Green
aged IS years, early today shot and perhaps
fatally wounded Miss Edith Wonderly, aged
% years, and himself. The shooting took place
on The sidewalk in fashionable neighbor-
hood in the northern part Of the city. Green
is married but is separted from his wife: In
a letter addressed to the newspapers Green
says: -
To-day l am going to kill myself and
true and loving friend, as my letter aud hers
will show. We died for love which was
denied from US by her dear mother. This
is the only girl | ever loved. We have prom.
ised before God we could never live apart.
This is our secret.
The mother of Miss Wonderly had refused
Green permission to visit her home and the
police believe Green and the girl entered
compact to die together.

Refined Woman Slain in Swamp.

NEWARK, n. j., December pa murder,
combining the elements of mystery and de
Iiberate cruelty, was committed on Hacken
sack meadows in the town of Harrison early
today, and the nude body of the victim, a
comely woman of perhaps 80 years, was
found nearly submerged in the icy waters of
a little pond. Only the feet projected when
chance passerby broke the ice in which the
exposed portions were incrusted and dragged
the body ashore this afternoon.
The dead woman was finely featured; her
hair and nails gave evidence of a recent and
scrupuous toilet, and such of her clothing
as was subsequently found suggested in texture
and style an owner of refinement, ralher than
one whose habits might lead her to frequent
the vicinity of the crime. The pond in which
the body was thrown is made blythe overflow
from the Passaic River and is directly across
the river from this city.
