and the other world to be crowd
ed cut.
Motormania breeds reckless ex-
traVagance.
Everybody knows that tradi-
tional somebody who has mort
gagged his house to buy a touring
car" His name is legion, and
these fool-ranks are swelled by
the other people who do not have
a house to mortgage and yet have
a ear. One estimate asserts that
nearly half of the automobiles
sold today are purchased with
borrowed money, or ON credit, by
people who cannot afford the lux
ury.
Desiring to deal only in cold
facts, | stopped writing, at this
point, long enough to consult one
of the leading dealers in Cleve-
land, Ohio as to the life of the
average auto. He gave it as
three years. He cited one
instance in which the cost was
$3250 and the owner thought him
self extremely fortunate in being
able to sell it for $500 in the thir
year. One of the machines which
he sells is priced at 1900, and he
stated that its annual upkeep and
depreciation are $500, giving it
a three year life.
No doubt for those in affluence,
expenditure on that scale does
not figure. But it is no less true
that a great multitude, which it
it would at least keep a man busy
to number, is yielding to the temp
tation to divert funds from right
ful business and household chan
nels under the spell Of the auto.
And national thrift comes next
to national righteousness as a
guaranty of national stability.

TIL QUIET HOUR
MANIA

HE 0tifef DAY by aeludl count
twenty-nine hundred autos went
east on Euclid Avenue, in Gleve-
land, Ohio, in twelve hours.
Probably $3,000,000. would be a
moderate estimate Of the money
which they represented. About
10000 are owned by residents here
What is true of this one city, is
proportionately true turnout the
land. The estimated average is a
car for every onehundred and six
ty families in the United States.
The mushroomlike growth Of the
automobile manufacturing plants
and agencies with the inevitable
Overproduction and keen competi-
ton; the fad for discarding the
last years machine for this years
"model''; the enormous capital
tied up--over $1,000, 000, 900, are
bound to lower prices, placing
motor ears within the reach
most of those beyond that circle
wish they had one. Let us defin-
initely face the facts.
Commercialism with its attend
ant prosperity and luxury is the
characteristic symptom of the age
and it's most patent and potent
symptom is the automobile.
Now inasmuch as our life as a
whole is necessarily affected and
influenced by our lives in every
part, this growing motormania
cannot long fail to produce an eff
feet, beneficial or detrimental up
on our social, intellectual and spir
itual life as a nation.
In fact it is not difficult to
find evidence of this even at this
comparatively early stage Of the
game.
Admitting that the auto has ar
rived; and that it has come to
stay; and that its grip upon the
nation is so firm that it has be
come a mighty factor in moulding
national character and thus de-
termining the trend of future e.
vents, what meaning may we reat
in all this for the future?
If prosperity is the God of our
times, and the motorcar is his pro
phet, let us listen to some of it's
representations, if happily we
may be able to avert the evil and
ensure the good.
\ few concrete cases will serve
to set out in bold relief some of
the mor important phases of this
mania for motion.
Motormania diminishes church
attendance.
/ have an acquaintance, a profess
sional man, who, a year ago was
a good Methodist, today he is
merely a good automobiles. Dur
ing six or seven months of
the year, on pleasant Sundays, /
stead of going with his family to
their church, he deyotes the early
part Of the day to overhauling his
big touring car, and the rest of it
to speeding thru the countryside
his wife and three children with
him.
| refrain from moralizing upon
the Influence of this course, not
only upon the parents spiritual
lives, but upon the whole spiritua
point of view and prospects of tn
little looming people," deprived
at a critical time, of the influen-
ces 50 essential to Development
along higher lines. The simple
fact-and it is but typical of a ma
tion-wide conditions irresista-
bly, eloquent in its prophetic sug-
gestion. Say what you will, this
typical instance proves that the
motorcar is doing more to over
throw and Europeanize the day o
Rest and to undermine the
Church than any other agency. |

CRUC|F|ED UNDER
CROWN OF TH0RNS
Awful Torture Inflicted
by Slavs
UPON A FELLOW COUNTRYMAN
Nailed to Cross, Beaten With
Clubs and Stoned to
Point of Death.

Wheeling, w. Va, April 23.-The
barbarity of biblical times is recall
ed by the awful ordeal to which
George Rabish, Slavish mine work
man at Avella, near Washington
Penn, was submitted by his fellow
eountrymen early yesterday, when
with a crown of thorns pressed down
Iron his brow, he was nailed to a
cross. beaten with clubs and stoned
to the point of death. He was lbes-
cued in a semi-conscious condition.
The story of the tortue Of Rabish
reads like a tale from the Middle
Ages He is employed in the mine OF
the Pittsburg and Washington COal
Company, and his fellow workmen
have suspected him Of spying on
them for the company.
They claim that through Imports he
has given, a number of others have
been discharged. For this alleged spy
ing he has been made to suffer.
The prosecutions started on Friday
when a gang of drunken foreigners took
him from the mine and beat him
severely. He was rescued by the Of
ficers. and four of his ASSISTANTS
were heavily fined by Justice w. w.
Weigmann.
Y Not content with this, the same
men Saturday morning dragged him
from his little home, and, taking him
to the same spot as on the previous
occasion, stripped him of his cloth
ing.
A crown of sharp thorns was crush
ed on his head until the blood couIs-
1ed down over his naked body. He
was then hoisted to a cross which had
been set up to receive him, and spikes
driven through his wrists and palms,
while his body was dashed fast with
heavy ropes.
Stones were then hurled at him, and
the then frantically drunken mob
danced around the foot Of the cross,
jeering and cursing the victim of
their Infatuated passions.
Had it not been for the arrival at
early dawn of Mine Superintendent
Boggs with a number of men, who
dispersed the crowd and cut down thD
body, he would doubtless have been
tortured to death.
An attempt was made to arrest the
foreigners and several shots were fired
Four were finally captured and taken
to Washington, where the county Jail
is being guarded to prevent lynching.

ing Business.

Lexington, Ky, April 24.-"The
frost Of last night was one Of thP
most disastrous within my recollec-
ton, and the fruit crop Of Kentucky
is universally blishted." This was
the statement made to-day by II. f.
Hillenmeyer, the veteran nurseryman,
Of this county, and one Of the high
est authorities on fruit production in
the country, and as Mr.. HillenmPyer
is known to be of optimistic ten
denotes, his dire announcement bears
additional weight.
Mr.. Hillenmeyer said he did not
mean that there would be no fruit
Whatever TINS season, but that-which
would be grown would be of a sub
sidiary and inferior character and
quantity. The apples, pears, plums,
cherries and similar tree fruits, he
states, were effectually killed on the
outer branches Of the trees, but thc
small portion of the fruit near the
trunks of the trees and protected by
the leaves and branches probably es-
capped.
The early grapes, he says, were
killed, but the later varieties will
bear some fruit The strawberries, he
thinks, are almost a total loss, al
though the plants may put out sec
ond bloom which will probably pro-
duce some fruit.
MIR. Hillenmeyer does not believe it
probable that the wheat or oats were
seriously injured, and the corn crop
is not yet up. Reports from farmers,
However, show much apprehension
over the fate of the oats and consid-
cradle fear that the oat crop has
been killed in many localities, and
the wheat, which was in the critical
stage of jointing and blooming, may
be seriously injured.
Reports from the country are that
the tobacco plants, although covered
with canvas, were in many instances
seriously injured or killed, and as 1t
is too late to successfully grow new
pants, this may cut a serious figure
in the production of tobacco this year.
However. it will be several days be-
foro the effect of the frost on the
tobacco plants, wheat and oats can
be accurately known .f

BILE freight rate. The great railroad
magnates can, under the protection
and sanction of law, exercise a priv
ilege for which humble farmers
are to be bankrupted by fines. The
American farmer should know that
this prosecution comes directly from
the Department of Justice at Wash
ington. The farmers of Kentucky have
been robbed of millions of dollars in
the sale of their crops, and the De-
partment of Justice has never used it's
great power to protect them, but as
soon as the farmers organize and de-
mand their just dues, then the Attor-
ney-General and his assistants begin
to prosecute them.
81 warn the powers that be that
the farmers of this country can write
its laws when they so desire, and that
such persecution will force them into
a campaign into which they are loath
to engage. The Grant county farmers
have exercised the highest right Of
the American sitizen. 1 say 1t with
all honor and respect to the Judgment
of the Court, that in my opinion they
have done no wrong. Their case is
thD case of every tobacco grower in
Kentucky and of every farmer in the

will be disrupted, and the individ-
ual farmer will again be the prey
