PRISONERS At JAIL
HAVE A SOFT TIME
Police Officers Object to the
Sheriff's Method of
Treating Charges.

I'VE arrest men for violating the
law" said a policeman at headquar-
ters Saturday morning.
"Yes, and ! make the affidavit" con-
tinued Prosecutor Ladd.
And" said Mr.. Gormon, chief, Il
am interested in seeing the punish
ment meted out is carried out"
They are brought to me-" said
Mayor Zimmerman, land they get
fined and sent to Jail"
And then what?" they all cried.
"Then," said Mr.. Gormon slowly,
the sheriff makes 'em TRUSTEES. and
they just stick around the county Jail
to sleep and for their meals
What is the use of our fining
them." continued Mayor Zimmerman.
This police court might as we'll be

him down for 14O days. after he'd got
drunk. choked and cursed his moth
er. He was down little while and
now he's trusty. Until a few days
ago he was helping his mother in
her restaurant. That's not right.
spoke to the sheriff, however. and he
said he'd keep Stewart in"
Then, the mayor added "Why, the
fellows that come before me regularly
just laugh when they are sentenced.
They don't care. for it's good food and
a place to sleep in the Jail That fell
low Stewart called me 'kidder'
when l asked him if he wanted to go
to Jail or get out of town.
Every prisoner who goes to the
county Jail ought to be kept in a
cell. OF course in penitentiaries
where they go down for long terms
they need some exercise. but in the
county Jail they don't. Put all of the
prisoners in cells and we wouldn't
have so many"
why l saw a couple of prisoners
walking down Main street arm-in-arm
the other day" said one of the off,
GERS. Il supposed they had been re-
leased. but l found out afterwards
their terms had not expired"
I'm winter that Jail is a first class
club room for a certain clique" COM
mented another officer interested in
the discussion. "The prisoners play
cards, bum around. smoke. eat and
sleep. No work. What better could
a fellow want who hasn't any place to
stay"
There shouldn't be a single trusty
to run errands for the sheriff. or any
one else at the county Jail. All the
prisoners should be kept within the
walls" This was another opinion ex-
pressed.

ON THE HILLS

October Sunshine. Sweeping
f1eecy clouds overhead. Soft aut-
umn air, healthful, huttering the
ioliage, not yet fallen, but already
answering the call Of the frost in
ruch, golden, crimson, purple hucs
and flaming saliva frightening the
lawns. Down below in the valley
hangs the smoke of passing trains
and of the tall stacks of mills that
tell OF unceasing human industry.
Over in the fields stand the brown
shocks OF unhusked corn, and here
and there among them is the yell
low hint OF pumpkin pies and the
day of National Thanksgiving
coming by and by.
October is the opal of the year.
Then the robin sings his sweetest.
Then the farmer looks with salts
faction at his brown, bare fields,
and well stored barns. Then ma
ture wears her coronal of glad
ness, and seems to sing David's

HEART CHEER

Season Of SHOWS and season OF
flowers,
Seasons OF loss and gain! -
Since grief and joy must alike be
ours,
Why do we still complain?
Ever Our failing, from SUN to sun,
O my intolerant brother
We want just little too little of
one,
And much top much OF the
other.
There's space for good to bloom
in
Every heart OF man or woman
And however wild or human,
Or however brimned with gall

glad line, Thou crownest the year
with thy goodness"
Out on the hills on this October
Sabbath we are face to face with
the great work of God that is for
ever trne. The forests tell no
:.alsehoods. The fields wall out no
woe strains. The softened sun
shine adds no burdens to heavy
laden life. This is the place and
hour for calm meditation on 'eter-
nal love-" This is the place and
hour where the truly devout heart
can say, There are two eternal
verities. God is one and | am
o1e.'' Under the influence Of
these hills one says involuntarily:
God is. Perhaps | cannot prove
him to be, but through all exter-
mails he forces himself in upon my
soul. | am. | know l am, and
that | came from God, and go to
God"
Out on the hills there is peace.
What do we care today for the
questions that vex life? In one
great city yesterday men fumed
and fretted ovel the question Of
finance and scrambled in the dust
of the market place for the ''ignis
fatuus' they call wealth. Shout
ing, cursing, grasping here and
there at the elusive thing, they
found themselves at each Vlew'
effort still empty-handed, and all
the while ;orgetful of God. In
another city the prize men sought
was in the arena OF politics. Re-
putations were cried up, cried
down, and one would push an
other into the abyss of disap-
pointed ambition, victor and van
quished alike forgetting God.
Out on the hills there is time to
think. Not low sordid thoughts
OF time and place and circum-
stance should fill ones mind when
under Gods blue dome. Dig to-
morrow if you must, but not un-
der the October sunshine OF this
Sabbath day. Dig with the spade
or shovel of honest toll in the dit
.ches that earth's industries de-
mand
But never touch them uckrake.
Leave that to the politicians, to
the pessinists, to the cross-eyed
men who always see good as evil,
and evil as good. One could not
dare to be a pessimist with the
corn shocks and the pumpkins
and the fire red SALIVA and burst
ing barns in view.
Breathe in the fresh air that
carries life to the heart, and makes
the blood pulse Through every
vein with gladdening vigor. Walk
over the country road with a step
| whose elasticity the city pavement
cannot answer, then go in TO
rest and sleep with unbroken in
| tervals-a sleep that knows no
troubling dreams.

RED CLAY CREEK CHURCH ENTERTAINS
THE PRESBYTERY OF new CASTLE

Rev. ]. r. Henderson, chairman
of the Board of Aid for Colleges
made his report.
Mn. Hayes, an Elder in the
Genital Presbyterian Church 'of
Wilmington, who had been in at
tendance upon the sessions OF the
General Assembly, at Atlantic
City last May, having beeri sent
as a commissioner from this Pres
bytery, asked the privilege of
making his report at this time, as
he could not be present at later
time.
After a recess for supper, the
Presbytery assembled to hear the
sermon OF the retiring Moderator,
the Rev. Julius Herold, of Lewes.
This was a mastery production,
and made ap roiound impression
on the people assembled.
This closed the exercises for the
day. Rev. G. d. Blake read the
names OF the ministers and elders
and the places to which they were
assigned for entertainment.
On Wednesday morning the
Presbytery was opened by a de-
votional service, conducted by
Rev. Samuel Polk, Of West Not
tingham Church.
The Rev. DR.. keigwin, former
ly pastor of the West Presbyterian
Church, Wilmington, presented
the Cause of Ministerial Sustenta-
ton. This is a plan Of life insur-
ance by which the ministers may
provide for their retirement at old
age or from disability.
The plan requires each minis
ter that joins in the plan to pay
yearly 20 per cent OF the amount
OF premium according to the best
and safest mortuary tables of the
best life insurance companies
and the other SO per cent is to be
raised through thee hurches. Their
on retirement at the age OF 7c
years the minister will receive ar
annuity of $500 year during the
remainder OF his life. Should the
minister become disabled earlier
in life, he will receive SIoo pei
year and SIoo additional for each
year he belonged to the fund
Thus, i: he should become disabled
after he had been IS years con.
nected with the scheme, he would
! receive SIoo and SI5o or $3.50 pei
year.
The only drawback to the plar
is the raising OF the 50 per cent
Of the premiums, which must be
collected from the churches. Az
the churches are all contributing
to the ministerial relief fund, they
are slow to take up this new plan
The Presbytery passed a reso
luton requesting the Secretary o
Agriculture Wilson to cancel hi!
engagement to act as chairman o
the international Brewers Asso
ciation.
An interesting conference wa
held on Evangelistic work, parti
cipated in by Revs. Candee, Gil
;illan, Beale, Stonesifer, Rhson
keigwin, Jackson, Cunningham
and Lane.
The invitation to hold the mex
stated meeting of Presbytery il
Dover was accepted.
The ladies of the church furnish
ed dinner and supper in the base
ment Of the church each day, t.
which all members and visitors O
Presbytery were cordially invited
The ladies proved what excel
lent hosts they were by the fin
set-out at each meal. That tn
members of Presbytery recognize
this was evidenced by the heart
thanks extended to them by vot
OF Presbytery.
The evening service was we'll al
tended and two admirable address
es were given by Rev. Mr.. Bealt
OF Salisbury, Md, and Rev. ]. {

Under the provision of the Parks bill 1t seems clear that there are two is- sues and that each voter has his right to vote twice. first wet or dry, then for a dispensary or open saloon.
 The question was raised that 1t seemed inconsistent that voter should be able to vote yes and no on the same question, for if person votes for pro- hibition and then for the dispensary or saloon he seemingly vitiates his first ballot.
 Attorney John T. Glover gave 1t as his opinion that a man could not vote for prohibition and then vote for a dis pensary or saloon.
 different opinion was held, how ever, by others who contended that under the terms of the section of the Parks bill relating to elections each voter could vote twice. The section referred to is as follows:
 Sec. 6 That in the elections authorized under this act submitting the question of 1egalizing the manufacture and sale of said liquors, the issue shall be, first, whether or not such manufacture and sale shall be permitted, and second, if permitted, whether the sale shall be by or by private dealers under g license The ballot issued in such cleo tion shall have printed thereon such as will enable each voter to express intelligently and clearly his choice on each issue to be voted upon by mak- ing & cross mark opposite to certain of the phrases so printed upon the ballot, and the choice of the voter shall be so expressed. No ballot or vote shall be re- jected or the count thereof refused for any failure to comply with this section, if the ballot clearly shows or indicates the choice of the voter as to such of the is sues submitted in the election as he at tempts to vote upon. The purpose hereo i is to provide for the determination of tn, issues indicated by a majority vote at tn,
 elections hereby authorized, and not t
 deprive any voter of his vote merely be
 cause of any technical inaccuracy or in
 formality in his ballot"

Selma, July 22.-(Special. )-'rhe dele gation of citizens from the state at large representing the Alabama Good Roads as- sociation and the committee of Semians will leave Monday afternoon for Wash ington, where on Wednesday at noon they will have an audience with President Taft and extend to him invitations 10 come to Alabama and Selma during the annual convention of the Alabama Good Roads association to be held here the latter part of October.
 Owing to the pressure of business in his office the state delegation will not be headed by Gov. Emmet ONeal as was expected. But his place on the delegation will be filled by Judge Edward deGraffen- ried, who will act in the capacity of the personal emissary of the governor All other members of the committee have signified their intention of making the trip to Washington.
 While it is hardly possible that Pres ident Taft will give an immediate reply to the invitation, as such things are given due consideration before accepted or de- elned, it is the general belief that Pres ident Taft will be the guest of Selma dur ing the convention. It has been said that President Taft has expressed a desire to visit Selma and the black belt section of the state.

I think the thing for man to do when he finds he has to have whiskey to feel good, is to go to your Sanitorium and take treatment. He will find the hmount he spends for treatment the best Investment he ever made. The party who wanted prices on Home Treatment Decided he would quit without aid. but notice he is still drinking. and I think he will either order Home Treatment or go to the Sanitorfum soon.
