ENFORCING | LIQUOR LAW

The decision Of the Court of APP
peals, last week, encourages the be-
lief that the liquor laws are TO be
enforced.
John Duff, living on the Perry
County side Of the North Fork of the
Kentucky River, carried whisky over
the river in jugs to viii Oliver and
Bob Sizemore, and collected off Of
them on the Breathitt side, Breathitt
territory not being dry. The Court
of Appeals holds that the sale was
made in Perry County and Duff's fine
OF 800 and twenty days in Jail stands,
crossing the river being declared as
a subterfuge to evade the operation
OF the local option law.
There will be no question about
prohibition prohibiting when courts
and officials do their duty-hew 10
the line.

HIS MADE RELIGION

Some time about 1885, Smith. 30
he writes in his diary, received from
Michael II. Chandler some mummies
and two or three pieces of papyr.
They were ordinary mummies, just
like the millions OF others found IN
Egypt, and the papyri contained the
stock inscriptions and drawings which
were placed in the tombs of all mum
mics. Remember, that at that time
the first Egyptian grammar had not
appeared; the only Egyptian scholars
were Champollion and two or three
others who were trying TO guess at
the meaning of the Egyptian charac-
tiers, with the aid of the Greek trans
lation on the Rosetta Stone. Though
the Egyptian language could not
yet be read, Smith, an American,
without the aid of the Rosetta Stone,
but by means of a special 'revela-
tion," or by the help Of a mummy,
translated the disk, and thus The
Book of Abraham was given to his
followers. There were none to chal-
lcnge his translation, for then none
could read the Egyptian. and 30
the matter was dropped. Since then
the Egyptian language has become
PERFECTLY Ineligible. and recently
Bishop Spalding of Utah asked the
leading Egyptian scholars to verify
or disprOve Smiths translation. -

QUEER MEN

Men are QUEER too. Generally,
all that a man has to do TO be queer
is to prefer the quiet of his home in
the evenings and refuse to drop in"
on his neighbo-s, or to go out TO
"dinner-parties' that are a WEAKNESS
to the flesh, or TO prefer his own
hearth-stone to the club. Let man
be studious, intent upon reading, and
perhaps, live alone, and not spend
his precious evening hours at the
corner store" in the village where
he lives, and at once he is ''pecu-
liar" In other words, if he prefers
to live apart flom the world he is
queer" If, for reasons best known
to himself, he prefers to take a
Sunday morning walk with his family
instead Of going to church he is "ec-
centric" and he is lucky if he gets
off with that judgment. More gener-
ally he is an atheist. | have known
men to be stamped as queer" or as
atheists" whose only crime | could
find out was that they took advan-
tage of the only day they had to get
a breath of Gods fresh air on a
spring or summer Sunday morning
instead of going to church; and al
most invariably the men who made
the criticisms were those who were
either spending inherited money, or
were too strong to work, and had leis-
ire all the week.
| know a man, living in a small
community, who, in a quiet way, has,
perhaps, helped mere young men TO
get on their feet, and made the
way smoother for more unfortunate
people than any other man | know.
His self-earned wealth goes out con-
stantly, but with that sense of the
fitness of things that alone is worthy
of the name of charity; the kind that
IN never known.
One day tho minister of the village
was deploring to me the fact that
my friend was 80 queer"
"Queer?" | asked; Tin what way?"
"Why. he never spends the Lords
Day In church"
do you know why?" | asked.
"oh, yos!" was the answer, spoken
with that absolute authority that is
80 becoming TO a minister of the
teachings of the lowly Christ; he is
an atheist"
An atheist! And then | thought of
my friend; as devout a man and sin
cere a Christian as God ever made,
who. for years, was living a life-story
which contained the tragedy of a
wife suddenly dying CT heart disease
in a church, and who since that morn.
ing has never been able to enter a
church building.
