SENTENCE PASSED UPON
SCOUNDRELS IN TARING CASE

Shady Bend is a little village in the
state of Kansas. There was a yourg
lady school teacher in the village named
Miss Mary Chamberlain. Certain
parties circulated stories about her.
She was weak and unprotected and no
one to defend her fair name. Without
investigating the truth of falsity or
the charges, band of brutes in pan
falcons assumed the task of regulating
the community, organizing mob, took
the school teacher cut, stripped her,
beat her and smeared over her a coat
OF tar and feathers. Then with a self
consciousness of having regulated the
morals of the neighborhood, they wen.
ded their several ways homeward,
thanking God that they were not as
this poor frightened and half-dead
girl.
Fortunately, the conscience OF Shady
Bend was not bound up in this mob
the courts have gone to work and
several convictions have been had, all

with inadequate penalties.


1t is stated that the stories were libe-
lous and altog ether false; that they
originated with scandal -mongering men
and women, and that the girl bore the
very highest character for vlrture and
chastity. But whether she was all that
had been said of her, the members Of
the mob ought to have been dipped IN
boiling oil, then scalped, then roasted
slowly over hot Goals, and afterward
torn to fragments and thrown to wild
beasts.
Who put up a set of brute men to
sit in judgment on those of the weaker
sex? Why were they called on 70 re-
gulate the morals of a community?
There was a bunch of just such
scoundrels who brought poor, trem
bling girl before the Master TO be judg-
ed under the Mosaic law. When he
turned to them and said: "Let h m that
is without sin among you, first cast a
stone at her." they all skunk away like
the cowardly ours they were. They
were as burning and shining lights in
the synagogue of righteousness as
