The future life was the subject OF a
sermon delivered at the Second Baptist
Church. Fourth street and Virginia ave

Hex Sven. pastor.
The clergyman quoted passages from
Scripture TO show that God has promised
a life after death. which all the faithful

on the Importance Of believing in a future
life. saying We have not all the light
We long for in understanding this truth,
but we learn from the Bible there IS an
unending existence after death which all
men shall endure.
Men at all times have believed in a fu-

dead. each having the same personality
as before death. and we are led to believe
all viii have the same personality in the
next life as they have now We shall

both inclusive in this state, shall be re-
quired annually to perform labor upon
the highways in York county five days,
or pay Communication tax of three
dollars" II the town man could be
made to pay his street tax Of three dol
lars, under the Saye law, how much
more could he be required to do the
same thing under the old law. But the
whole statement is political buncombe,
probability is that only the property
tax will be collected this year, as It
now seems improbable that the COM
mutation tax will go on the books un-
til the fall of 1909.
Amendments, and some are neces-
sary, can be made to the law before II
goes into operation next January.
I, therefore hope and believe that
senate and house will advocate this law
and If there are defects in 1t point
them out and remedy them during the
first week of the next general assem-
bly, in January, so that all defects may
be corrected before the law becomes
operative.
Under a bonded debt system, we
would bequeath our children's chill
dren road debt to pay. The beauty
of the Saye road system is, we can
lower the property or communication
tax whenever we desire to do so.
If we turn our faces backward in
stead of forward. if we return to the
old system, let us amend the old law
so as to require the county commits
sioners to publicly burn, in front Of
York court house, the large amount Of
money now wasted on our roads. Let
us decide to let our roads wash out in
to impossible CULTS. Let us decide to
turn over our farming lands to negro
renters, allow our towns and cities to
dry up, and, all decide, decently and
in order, to go down together.
Respectfully,
]. S. BRICE.

with nervous haste Having made the
cavity deep and smooth, she drew the
letter addressed to Mrs. Ellicott from
her pocket, tore it into minute frag-
ments, placed it in the grave and piled
the sand upon it. Carefully she reset
the grass above the spot, carefully re-
moved all traces of recent disturbance
She had just completed her task OF
burying the letter. which she had new
er meant to post, when she heard q
mock-heroic voice behind her say:
LET us sit upon the ground,
And tell sad stories of the death OF
Kings"
She gave a startled upward glance
into the lean, brown face Of Nigel
Hume His smiling look assured her
that he had seen nothing.
II am going to the village" she
stammered ito mail a letter for Bess.
But 1 danced so much last night, that

Poor child" he answered, half in
Jest, half in earnest. "Shall I walk
with you?"
She shook her head. He picked up
her gloves. Laughing, she tried to
thrust her dimpled hands, soiled with
the sand, behind her. He took them in
his own, and with two or three strokes
brushed them clean.
What have you been doing?" he
asked, lightly.
Digging a grave for all my trou-
bles," she answered, in a light tone.
You are going to the cottage, 1 know.
Tell Bess that you met me on the cliffs,
and that l was on my way to mail her
letter"
"All right" he replied, and left her
there and continued his walk toward
tho cove.
