by the influence OF her patient resig-

Conscious almost all the time, her
constant thoughts and talk were of

the comforting assurance of His

death had no sting, the grave no

To those left behind she leaves an
example of deep, abiding faith, of
patient resignation under afIliction
and the fullest trust in the Saviour.
Her only regret in dying seemed to
be leaving her husband, E. w.

youngest being four years old. She
leaves her father, mother, two bro
theirs and five sisters to mourn her
death. Her body was laid to rest

A TRAvEsTY ON JUSTICE.
An Editor Places Some Important
Facts Before the Public.
(Saluda Standard.)


Tillman Proctor is out of jail
and he ought to be out, unless a
number of others were in, too.
What we mean by this Is, there
have been Others during the last few
years just as guilty as Tillman Proc
tor, but who, although indicted by
the grand jury and docketed for
trial, managed to get up the money
to pay up the demands of their per-
secutors, and SO the cases were "set-
tied" and the solicitor, finding him
self without witnesses, had the cases
marked moi. pros"
1t seems that this has long been
the custom, by common consent, and
perhaps no one is specially to blame
only the custom" But it's not
good law.
The very idea of hauling man
before a magistrate, and, after in
vestigation. making him give bond
to appear in the circuit court, then
taking up the grand jury's time to
find true bill" and then reading
his name out as one under indict-
ment for crime, and all for the pur-
pose of collecting debt, Is just SIM
ply outrageous.
If the expensive machinery OF the
courts is thus to be turned into a
collecting agency, we wish they
would take charge of some people
who are indebted to The Standard.
But think! The crime lies not in
failure to pay, but antecedes that.
When a man gives papers over prop
erty that is not his, or disposes of
property under mortgage or lien,
then he commits the crime, and If a
party wants to prosecute such man
for the good of the country he has a
right to do it; but we contend that
he has no moral right whatever to
prosecute merely for the purpose Of
collecting debt due him.
If the writer were magistrate,
when a party brought such proceed
ings before him he would have to
mean business. We would not allow
fellow-man held up as criminal
just for collecting purposes. If all
our magistrates would take this view
Of 1T, and act accordingly, 1t would
save the county an enormous en-
penSe.
And this question of expense is an
interesting one. The supervisors eff
forts toward economy are commend
able, but this is leak at the bung,
In comparison with some SpigOt
wastes that seem to attract atten-
ton.
Quite number of cases Of this
Kind have reached the circuit court,
and were "Settled." each involved
warrant, an arrest, a preliminary
hearing, executing and approving ap-
pearance bonds, sending up the na-
perS, drawing an indictment, inves-
tipnt ion hr
out true bill" with the party's name
as criminal in open court, docket
ing the case by the clerk, and attend
ance of all parties at court, including
witnesses, in some instances several
times--and all to collect debt
owed by one man to another!
When a warrant is issued, who
has right to stop it until a jury
says mot guilty."

MOON TO HIDE HER FACE.
There Will BE Total Eclipse June 8.
Other Eclipses.

Many are interested in the coming
total eclipse of the moon, which oc-
ours on the evening of Thursday,
June 3. The phenomena may be
observed all over the continent If
the sky is clear.
|, In this section the rise of the moon
will be almost normal, and the peo-
pie may watch the shadow of the
earth gradually steal over the lunar
body. But further In the continent,
probably on the other side of the
Mississippi, the inhabitants will first
see and odd looking disc OF a faint
reddish color rise from the east.
When the moon rises here only a
narrow portion of it will be observ-
ed. Gradually it will enter deeper
and deeper into the earth's shadow
until the moon gives no light and is
only barely perceptible.
This year the moon does not enter
into the heart of the earth shadow,
SO there will not be blacn eclipse.
The moon, however, will be in the
earth's shadow for over an hour, and
practically the only light from the
heavens will be that of the stars.
The reason why the moon will be
ed tbs atmosphere, which bends the
suns rays at the edges of illuminat-
ed hemispheres of this planet, and
throws on the moon a faint glow.
generally of red copper hue. 1t
results from the absorption in the
earth's atmosphere of the green,
blue and violet rays that pass
through IL. 1t is much the same as
the sunset glow, though infinitely
more faint.
AS the phenomenon of the eclipse
develops, the children will be able
to see for themselves the truth
OF the statement they learned from
their Biographies.
An eclipse of the sun will be wit
messed fortnight later, on Thurs
day, June 18th, shortly before sun
set. The only effect that it will have
is to send the chickens to roost an
hour or two earlier.
The lunar eclipse is precisely the
same as that which saved the lives
Of Columbus and his party in the
isle of Jamaica in the year 1904
'rhe natives refused them food. Co
lumbuS, knowing that an eclipse was
due, told them that God was very
angry because OF heir inhospitality
and would take away the light of the
moon. The moment that the natives
saw the light going, they rushed
to their storehouses and brought out
their choicest viands, supplicating
the white angels" to bring back
their moon. Columbus handed it
back in about an hour.
The earliest account of an eclipse
was discovered in the tomb vi a Cnl-
neSc emperor The date has been
fixed by chronologists as January %,
