Even Fly Screens Are Barred

According to an opinion rendered by
officials saloonkeepers in Mobile, Ala
bama, cannot screen against flies. The
officials have ruled that the law under
which saloons are operated in Alabama
prohibits screens, partitions or objects
of any kind which might obstruct the
view of any person on the sidewalk
into the saloon, and that fly screens
come under the ban. 1t is evident that
the liquor men are attempting to get
ruling under which they could use a
fly screen which would answer their
purpose as we'll as a board screen.
They will now have to try their in
genuity along some other line.

spirit of wine-let me call thee devil.
0 God, that men should put in their
mouths an enemy to steal away their
brains that we should with JOY revel
and transform ourselves into beasts"
Domestically, liquor is the most
terrible enemy of the peace and purity
of the Monochrome, the very center
of all human society, and which
should always be place of unin-
terrupted confidence and delight, a
hallowed retreat of souls. But the
drink of death grasses conjugal affec-
ton, destroys parental love, over
throws filial obedience.
Ethically, liquor is the most power
full ally of crime. The history of
crime is largely the history of the
saloon; and the proof of this asser-
ton is found in the records of our
gaols and our penitentiaries.
Governmentally, the liquor traffic
corrupts and debauches our govern
ment, defying national law and de-
feating popular will. Tell me whether
we have, in this land of ours, any in
stitution so inimical as this to free
dom of conscience, liberty of speech,
sanctity of law; so defiant an element
in nihilism, communism and anarch-
ism?
Religiously, the liquor traffic is
avowedly and universally the bitter
and determined foe of the Christian
church and its divine aims. The one
strives for degradation and death; the
other for amelioration and salvation.
What man, with soul and brain, can
be Indifferent to this mighty foe Of
body, of mind, of spirit, of family, of
government, of church? God give us
each some appreciation of the I'M
measured and unreasonable evils OF
this traffic of death, and grant us the
heroic equipment and undaunted spirit
for it's destruction.-The Union Sig
nal.

PRAYED FOR MAN He HANGED
SHERIFF MANGUM ASKED DIVINE
FORGIVENESS FOR PRISONER.
, Dramatic and Touching Incident at
the Execution q Robert Clay IN
Fplton County Friday.

FliIOL ' OuAtAt
ATLANTA. Ga.-The Constitution
savs one Of the most dramatic and
striking incidents Of the hanging OF
Robert L. Clay. condemned wife muir
derer who went to his death Friday
moraing. was told yesterday while
CIav,s body lay in a morgue viewed
h. thousands of the morbidly curious.
The story Of Clay's confession that
he was shammfng insanity has been
told: that when he confessed to the
sheriff he asked him TO pray for aim
was not told by the sheriff to oul-
siders.
For fifteen minutes before he tooE
the murderer out of the death cell
Sheriff Nangum knelt in prayer with
him and pleaded as earnestly as if
ne were interceding for an erring
son No one was there TO tell of the
nicture made by the old gray-headed
sheriff and the murderer as they
knelt on the prison floor One man,
PIennie Miner, deputy sheriff, stood
at the door and confesses that tears
rolled down his face as the prayer
was said.
When the prayer was over the man
who had prayed for Clay's soul took
him to the gallows and sprung the
Tran that sent him into eternity
Asks for His Prayer.
Sheriff Mangum went into the death
cell to take Clay out and was greeted
by the murdarer's outstretched hand.
pad" said Clay, calling him by the
name that jailers and prisoners alike
bestow upon him, i want to ask one
last favor of YOU You've been good
to me while I was here; I love every
hair in your old head, and I want to
thank you for the kind words you've
spoken and the advice you've given
me. l love you for it. Now, I want
to ask you to pray for me.
Taking off his hat the sheriff knelt
with the man he was to execute and
for about fifteen minutes he prayed.
For the soul of the penitent murderer
he asked forgiveness.
There was no one to tell of the
pathetic scene. No newspaper men
had accompanied the sheriff to the
death CELL and it was not for idle
show and effect that the two knelt
in asking their God to pardon the
man who was to die.
The prayer over the sheriff rose
and placed his hand on the mans
shoulder. Come on, Bob, it's time
to go"
All right, Dad, I'm ready" Clay
replied. The two men were again
officer of the law and violator of its
statutes. A few minutes later the
sheriff had carried out the legal eX-
ecution.
