What Is Honor? Not Office, Surely

In life, famous congressman speaker of the house,
senator of the United States and secretary of the treasury
longer than Is years ago.
In death, unwelcomed in his old home town, hauled
through the streets in express wagon, unclaimed for
days. and finally saved from the poters field by popular
subscription
That was the fate Of John Griffin Carlisle
The truth is that office-even high ofice-s not honor
in itself, but only OPPORTUNITY. And men win honor
and remembrance only they the opportunity FOR

! The stable was quiet; small feet
scurried over the snow toward the
house; the door was left standing
open, and strong moonlight poured
through it and illumined the place
When Doctor Harding drove in
the figure of a man stood black In
the patch of brightness.
"WhO Is that?" he asked cheer

The man answered. cts a

ingly, and with quick movement
set on on the floor the bag he held,
and caught the others hand.
"My boy. I'm glad to see you,
he said. Help me unharness. We
must get a fire and something to
eat as soon as possible"
AS If it were a custom to find
men waiting in the stable at 1
a, M. Doctor Harding talked of
&c horse and the harness and the
roads as they unbuckled the frozen
leather, and the mans fingers
slipped into the once familiar bust
ness, and his ears listened to the
once familiar voice. Ten minutes
of swift work and the harness
hung on it's hooks, and the horse
stood cared for and blanketed, in
it's stall. Maxwell swung across
the stable and lifted the small
black bag.
"I'l take that, Carl" the clergy
man spoke quietly.
"No-let me carry it for you,"
the younger man threw back, hold
ing to it firmly.
There was a seconds hesitation;
Harding's fingers loosened; he
turned to the door; Carl Maxwell
held the bag in his hands.
Down the slope Harding led the
way, and through the orchard
wildly black and white with moon
light and shadow. Suddenly he
faced about-the footsteps behind
him had stopped-he stared
through the zigzag OBJ are
branches and deep shadows
where was the man?
Carl he called, and out of a
splash of blackness ten feet back
stirred the figure.
"All right, Doctor" Maxwelps
voice answered. 81 stopped to see

apple tree was still there"
A low light shone in the study
as the two mounted the steps of
the side piazza, and the clergyman
slipped his key into the lock.
He threw open the door and
stood aside to let his guest enter
The MAJ halted, and made an un-
certain movement backward. Then
he stepped inside. In a moment
the light was turned up, the fire
was blazing, the room hung with
cheerfulness. Maxwell stared
about 1t, at the books, at the
papers, at the worn furniture. The
clergyman watched him a moment,
and then turned to a tray.
II don't know about you, Carl,
but I'm hungry" He held out a
plate of sandwiches.
The young fellow set the bag
down hurriedly and stretched out
his hand. He was shivering. and
he looked starved. Then the hand

But One Way Out of 1t

When public utilities privately owned charges for
service must be fixed either by the owners-THE SELL
ERS-or by the public-the BUYERS.
Human nature is such that neither be wholly just
to the other Either capital will exploit the people, the
people will exploit capital.
In the end, there is but just solution of the problem
and that is to MAKE SELLER AND BUYER ONE AND
THE SAME.
That's public ownership.

The Y. NJ. C. A. movement has not
been heard from for some time and
the Eagle regrets this fact very much.
The present conditions and surround
ings are a golden opportunity for the
organization of Y. NJ. c. A. and there
is nothing Bryan needs more than a
place for the young men to spend their
spare moments. Nothing more profit
able can be instituted than a place
for the young men to build up their
physical nature and Y. NJ. c. A. does
not only do this hut upbuilds the spir-
itual and intellectual side of the man.
Do not let blessing like this slip
from our grasp.

DISTRICT COURT.

The case of Mollie Bryan, colored,
charged with bigamy. which was on
trial when the Eagle went TO press
yesterday afternoon, has been conclud-
ed, the jury bringing in verdict of
mot guilty.
Louis Oliver, colored, charged with
murder in the second degree, plead
guilty to an aggravated assault and
was fined $25 and costs. Oliver is
only boy, and it was apparent that
he had no intention to kill the other
boy, hence he was permitted to plead
guilty to an assault.
Ernest King, colored, charged with
murder in the second degree, plead
guilty to manslaughter and his pun,
ishment was assessed at two years in
the penitentiary. He waived all time
rights and asked that sentence be
passed at once so that his time would
begin today. King was charged with
killing Ed Ewing on rat row" late one
evening some months ago by stabbing
him to death, and it is the general
opinion that he got out with very
light sentence.

HORSES IN DEMAND.

Twenty or 25 years ago street rail-
way companies were the largest pur-
chasers of horses. When electric
power was adopted the stables were
used for other purposes, and the world
was informed that the market for
horses was killed by the trolley and
that horse dealers must find other oc-
cupations. A few years later bicycles
appeared in countless thousands, and
the horse received another death blow.
In 1900 the motor Car began to take
practical form and the horse was again
declared to be an encumbrance on the
earth. But the predictions were false;
the horse survived every onslaught,
and the moro the people used trolley
cars, bicycles and automobiles the more
insiStent was the demand for horses;
the establishment OF new horseshoe
factories after the automobile made a
place for itself appears to afford con-
elusive testimony as to the popularity
of the horse. Prices also have been
maintained; desirable horses sell read
lily for from $3.50 to $500. The state
ment that last year their value was over
$3.50, 100000 or three times the in
crease of the value of American auto
mobiles built during the same period,
is calculated to impress upon the aver
age observer the fact that this is by no
means ''horseless age" described in
the motor car catalogues Providence
Journal.
