Man Who Was Always Late,

Private - was known to all his
chums as the early bird" probably
because 1t was an exact description of
the very opposite to what he really
was, for the early bird" was always
late. the last man to get out of bed
at reveille and the last man on pa
rade, and when his regiment sailed
for France his chums declared that he
was the last into the transport ship
and the last out of it.
When his regiment was doing its
spell in the trenches the early bird
was sent for by his officer. and as he
was creeping along the trench towards
the dug-out a stray bullet caught him
In the shoulder, just as he was outside
the officers shelter.
After seeing that he wasn't seriously
wounded. the officer exclaimed, with
a twinkle in his eye. IF you had Just
been a second earlier you would have
missed that"
Il would. sir" returned Private
"or II l had been a second later II
would have missed me."-London Tit.

army in his 150-horsepower machine,

had to descend two miles behind the
Austrian lines. While the mechanic
was repairing the motor six Austri.

his one-pounder on them and fred
one shrapnel shell. which exploded &C.
curately and felled five men. The
sixth surrendered.
Then came the problem-what
would he do with his prisoner? Pas.
chaloff decided to abandon his stock
of bombs and tie his prisoner to the
tail frame of his machine. Thus bur

POINTS OUT NATURES ERROR
Mr.. GwimpIeton Turns Aside From
Daily Duties to Discourse on
Matters Of Conscience.

Wealth, as we know said Mr..
Gwimpleton, lis very %unevenly dis
tributed, but conscience is more SO.
Some men are overburdened with
conscience; some have none at all.
Some people worry themselves sick
over this or that real or imagined
transgression of the civil or the moral
law.
There are others who worry only
that they cannot safely transgress the
more.
Between these two extremes we
have the man commonly described as
Demonstrations, meaning one wor.
too keen and active keep him from
betterments of his fortune that he
might otherwise compass. Then we
have those people who are not trou-
bled in such ways. who are all but
constituencies and whose conscience
really lies dormant.
1t Is true, too, that a thing that
may stir one mans conscience may
not touch another's; we are differ
emily constituted. There appears to
be no absolutely definite standard Of
conscience applicable to and actual.
ing all men alike. This enormously
complexities the conscience situation.
But still the great primary diff
Guilty lies in the uneven distribution
OF conscience. If we could only have
something like an even distribution
OF such conscience as exists 1t
would, for n thing, in some meas
ure reduce piracy in its manifold
forms as now practiced under civilized
conditions by men without conscience,
and for another thing, it would by
reducing the stock of the man Of abb
normal conscience, spare him the wor.
riments that now beset him and let
him take without qualms whatever
DEMENT'S rightfully belong to him. In
fact, a more even distribution of con-
science would tone up the world gen.
orally and make It in many ways a
vastly more comfortable world to live
in.
Pending that happy day 1t be-
hooves US, l s~uppose-at any rate, my
friend MacBlink. a we'll meaning and
cheerful but not always overtrustful
man, says 1t does-to be still more or
less wary in u dealings with our
fellow man in order to avoid subject
Ing u well meaning but weaker
brother to undue temptation, and to
avoid being circumvented by some
body who was perhaps overlooked en-
tirely in the conscience distribution

decree affirming the conviction and
death sentence of Hunter jenkins. a
young negro from Marshall county
who, in company with another negro
who has since been hung. murdered
his own mother for purposes of rob-
berry. The case vas a most revolving
one. and the court found neither eX-
~tenuating circumstances nor judicial
error in the record. The case was af'
firmed and Monday, June II. set as
the date for the execution.
The court reversed the circuit court
OF Lauderdale county in which a Judg-
ment for $4,000 had been rendered
against the Alabama Great Southern
growing out OF the death OF William
Shannon. Shannon had gone to-sleep
on the tracks of the defendant com
pany. and his death WAS due to his
own fault.
