Young M ans
Hard Luck

A cabin in the upper part of
town occupied by young Ger
man name1 August. Eberhardt
was destroyed by fire Thursday
afternoon while he was temporar-
lily in the timber on short hunt
ing trip. When Mr.. Eberhardt
returned to his home nothing re-
NAMED but ashes his clothing,
bedding and grub all consumed.
Mr.. Eberhardt, who is new to
Alaska, has encountered run
of very hard luck since his ar
rival in the North. During last
summer he was only able to Sc
cure a few days work in the
mines, and when winter set in be
and a companion started on a
moose hunt. They travelled about
500 miles, got no big game, and
Eberhardt froze one of his feet
so severely that he has been a
cripple since. During the past
few months he has been perform
ing odd jobs about town, but was
seriously handicapped by his
frozen foot,
The loss of his home at this
time is a severe blow to- the
young man, who is left with moth
ing but a 22-rifle, the clothing he
stands up in, and frozen foot.

filled with witnesses, jurors and
spectators, which caused the
court to quietly remark that the
chair empanel had become ex-
hausted." The two benches we're
scarcely long enough to hold the
entire dozen good men and

be provided. One spectator Of
fered the stool on which he sat;
as it was considered a poor con-
venience for a juror who desired
to enjoy a brief season of physi-
cal stagnation and intellectual
calm, it was not accepted. There
are many professional" jury
men who claim they can't sleep
with any degree of comfort on
top of a stool.
The jury, after listening to the
testimony of several witnesses, a

Allen, and the instructions of
the court, quickly brought in a
verdict Acquiring Mr.. Drummond
of the charge.

Last Sunday one of Manley's

by the kicking she received from
the rough -shod hoofs of one Of

TWO SIN NERS

There was man, it was said one time,
Who went astray in his youthful prime
Can the brain keep cool and the heart
keep quiet
When the blood is river that's rum
ming riot?
And boys will be boys, the old folks say,
And the man is the better who's had
his day.
The sinner reformed; and the preacher
told
OF the prodigal son who came back to
the fold.
And Christian people threw open the
door
With a warmer welcome than ever be-
fore.
Wealth and honor were his to COM
mand,
And a spotless woman gave him her
hand.
And the world strewed their pathway
with blossoms abloom,
Crying ''God bless ladye, and God bless
groom"
There was maiden who went astray
In the golden dawn of her life's young
day.
She had more passion and heart than
head,
And she followed blindly where fond
Love led.
And Love unchecked is a dangerous
guide
To wander at will by fair girls side.
The woman repented and turned from
sin,
But no door opened to let her in.
The preacher prayeu that she might be
forgiven,
But told her to look for mercy-in
Heaven.
For this is the law OF the earth we
know:
That the woman is stoned, while the
man may go.
A brave man welded her after all,
But the world said, frowning, eve
shall not CALL"

Fine Water
i'm the Well

South side residents are sure
of good quality of water this
summer. The we'll on the water
front near Morrison S has lately
been thoroughly cleansed, sew
eral bushels of charcoal placed
at the bottom, and the shaft then
filed with fine gravel and sand
making filtration perfect.
Yesterday morning while the
well committee" was busy
pumping to see how the clarity
ing was coming on many citizens
loitered, took "swigs" of the
fluid, passed judgment thereon,
and passed along. Most of those
who sampled the water remarked
that there was a strong flavor of
iron, but when Commodore Sell
lendar took a pull" at a cup of
it at once said that he detected a
decidedly leathery taste"
This information, coming from
one we'll versed on all kinds Of
water, sorely perplexed the com
mittee, who were unable to &C
count for that popularity Of the
water, and had nearly decided to
tear off the platform and again
clean out the we'll when Harry
Stoves happened to pass. In
their dilemma, the committee ex-
planned the situation to Harry.
Harry thought moment Or
two and then said:
Gentlemen, the Commodore,
as usual, is eminently correct.
Twas only yesterday morning
that I saw Joe Nellany's little
boy drop a leather headed tack
in the we'll.

Dear Sir: There has been great
deal said and great many remedies
offered, but to my mind it seems that
the subject has not been fairly treat
ed. You understand that every sound
has its rebound, and generally the
rebound is worse than the bound.
1t was only few years since that
great educational cyclone hit this
country. You remember great many
things said and done. | recall hear
ing one Of those discussions eighteen
years ago by one Of those Political
Jars. After addressing the white
voters he turned to the negroes and
said, 81 want to say a few words to
you niggers. Do you not know that
we Democrats are educating you
niggers? Do you not know that we
are your best friends? Do you not
realize that we are feeding you by
giving you employment - He went
on to say, II tell you negroes, these
Pops are fooling you. They are try
ing to get your vote, but if they get
in power the next thing they will do
is to turn on you, and they won't
leave grease spot of you. Of
course he was catering for their vote,
and Of course they got 'em.

rebound had not sounded, neither had
it occurred to their mind that it would

FOREIGN AND HOME MISSIONS.

COvington Ga, March Is, 1909.
Hon. Thos. E. Watson, Thomson, Ca,
Dear Sir: / have 1ead with much
interest your articles on foreign mis-
sions as published in the Jeffer-
sonians.
My church, the Presbyterian, is
endeavoring to raise a million dollars
for the cause Of foreign missions.
[ enclose you herewith circular
showing conditions in our own home
field, also plea for $4,000 to help
give the gospel to our own race.
| believe in giving the gospel to
the heather, but by what right do
We call ourselves Christian nation
when out Of ninety millions of people
we have only thirty millions who pro-
fess to belong to any church?
[ also believe in foreign missions
But when we have in our own South
nearly three million white children
out of Sunday school, to say nothing
Oh the ADULTS, and not even mention
ing the negroes, who are not in the
Sabbath school, I think it would be
a great deal wiser to raise the million
dollars for giving the gospel to those
at home and plead for the 5000
for foreign work.
Yours truly,
L. D. King.
Ed. Note: The circular enclosed
shows that 1888, 622 white children of
the Southern States are "out Of the
Sunday Schools"
Two hundred thousand Of these are
in Georgia, $4,000 are in Alabama,
10000 are in Louisiana.

but we are losing like blazes in these

TOM WATSON.

There was time in the history of
American journalism when the indi-
vidual genius and ability Of editors
made the paper great Such is not
the case now, for there are but few
great journals or magazines whose
editors are known beyond the precinct
ofthe office. In the great majority of
instances, editors are distinguished
and honored by their connection with
great journal, rather than by I'M
pressing their individuality upon
them. There are, however, a few no
table exceptions, and among the most
conspicuous is Thos. E. Watson, edi-
tor and proprietor Of the two Jeffer-
sonians. Tom Watson is, in our judg-
ment, the greatest living American
editor and author. His diction and
style is elegant; his language is sim
pie, chaste and eloquent and at times
beautiful and sublime; he is in the
broadcast sense a scholar, and a man
Of the most profound knowledge Of
history, literature, political economy
and law; he possesses, in the highest
degree, the capacity for making I'M
erring metaphysical analysis Of all
subjects with which he deals. But
above and beyond his genius and his
great ability is his sublime devotion
to the proletariat, his fidelity and his
answering adherence to honest con-
victions. In these last qualities, and
as statesman, and humanitarian, and
in point Of true moral courage, he
ranks with the Gracchi, with Julius
Caesar, Luther, Jefferson and, Lincoln.
ANY one issue Of either his weekly or
monthly Jeffersonian is worth the
cost of a years subscription. Every
American citizen seeking the truth
in matters pertaining to government
and all other questions Of world in
terest should read one or both Of the
Jeffersonians. This is not an adver-
tisement, for money could not buy
the editorial columns Of this paper
