New England epitaph is even more sug-
gestive than the first: "a Sarah to. her
husband, Eunice to her children" Who
was Eunice? She was the mother of
young Timothy, the favorite co-worker
and protege of the Apostle Paul. The
greatest of all the apostles loved him not
only for his own sake, but for the sake
of his mother and his grandmother. He
begins his second epistle to Timothy with
this salutation when | call to remem-
brance the unfegned faith that is in thee,
which first dwelt In thy grandmother Lois
and thy mother Eunice." All, yes, it was
not dit-.cult for Paul to trust and to love
Timothy when he knew in what kind of
a Christian cradle Timothy had been
rocked. Neither is it very difficult mat
ter for some of us to be good when We
look back upon the influence which our
Christian mothers had over us during our
infancy and childhood
A Eunice to Her Children.
Would you like to picture this woman
who was a Sarah to her husband and Il
Eunice to her children? Why, she was
just the same kind of a Eunice as your
mother was to you. Once, like Sarah of
old, your mother was fair to look upon
After your father died you found among
his treasures an old daguerreotype which,
though faded, still showed what a pretty
ana run loving girl your mother must
have BEEN But one day the angel of the
Nativity whispered In her ear a solemn
secret. Then a serious look came to her
eye. Then, when she was tempted to any
inconsistency, the first question that al
ways sprang to her lips was: Should |
do that? What will be the example for my
children?' All, yes, can understand why
in the last chapter of Proverbs Lemuels
mother describes the good wife in the
words, MANY daughters have done vlr-
tuously, but thou excellest them ALL" The
purity and nobility of woman's life are
never so gloriously developed as when
she, a mother, walks daily as a spiritual
example before her children. God bless
the Eunicesi God bless them for the
prayers they are lifting for their children

Hayti. the West Indian island. 10
which public attention has just recent
" been directed. has been the scene
of more massacres than any other
place on earth.
They began with the coming Of Co.
lumbus and the rabhle r0ut that fol-
lowed him. In . few years Its 5000.
900 Of gentle. brown-skinned inhabi-
tants had persisted utterly. exter'
minated by fre and sword and BY
forced labor In the mines.
Next the buccaneers seized the un-
happy island and wreaked vengeance
on the Spaniards. Presently came the
French. and for q brief space there
was some semblance of peace. But In
1898 the negroes revolted and muir.
dered practically all the whites.
On account Of these atrocities.
frightful reprisals took place when
France. in due course. recoaQuered the
island. But the negroes bided their
time. and presently rose again under .
ruflian named Dessalimes. This time
they did the thing thoroughly. Not
only were all the Europeans put to
death. but all having any admixture
of white blood in their veins suffered
like fate. In all 1t Is computed that
100000 men, women and children
have met with violent deaths ON this
island Of massacres since the inrtudine
white man first set foot ON its palm

At the preliminary hearing before

Quoted by Prosecuting Attorney
Henry Grass, and Smith was repre-
scented by Frank Reeves of the firm
of Reeves & Reeves.
The facts as brought out by the
evidence were substantially the same
as those published in Fridays issue
of the World. There was some doubt
as to whether Mr. Smith had gone a
step farther than necessary to de-
fend himself The testimony was
quite conflicting in some instances.
Jonn Z. Mills, Mrs. Mills. Patrol
men InscnU and Nelson, and the de-
PENDANT Smith were called as wit
nesses and examined by both attor-
news. On the evidence submitted,
Judge Palmer decided to hold Smith
for the superior court, and ordered
him to furnish bail in the sum of
$500.

supreme judges shall be selected by
all the voters regardless of political
affiliations of the candidates, to the
end that, when elected, judges will
not owe their position on the bench
to any political party, machine, COM
bination or interest, but will be re-
sponsible for their conduct to 80
earthly power save and except the
righteous judgment of all the people
and their own consciences.
We demand the repeal of the pres
ent road law, and recommend the
enactment of new law, outside of
incorporated towns and cities, where
by taxpayers will have the optional
paying the road tax in money or In
performing labor upon the county
roads. At the same time we recon-
mend that good wagon roads ana
bridges be built in such places as
the development and interests OF
the county demand to as great an
extent as a reasonable expenditure
of public money will permit; discre-
ton always being exercised in order
that taxes may not be excessive.
We condemn the present board of
county commissioners for their &C
ton in attempting to deprive the
sneriff's office of necessary deputy
help, apparently for no other reason
than that the sheriff is a democrat,
while all other county officers are
provided with ample help at the eX-
Eense of the county.
We favor the enactment of local
option law, and to that end we here's
by pledge our candidates to the
legislature, if elected, to work and
woe for such a law.
