During the progress of the railroad strike in Tennessee, Charles i ' - | lyanier, a snopman, was killed and three men were arrested on charge of the murder. The case was taken up five weeks ago and the lawyers have succeeded in consuming all that time m selection of a jury. It was only yesterday that the twelfth man was accepted. In Asheville, a youth was kidnapped and manhandled. Three men were arrested for the offense, were tried, found guilty and sentenced to the penitenti ary, all within the course of three days. It seems that the lawyers can almost always and generally throw the machine!? of the court Aiken Journal and Review. The arrest of a minister, in the upper section of the state, for violation of the national prohibi lion act is the latest. The minister was arrested Sunday night, October 1st, for having in his possession a quart of corn whiskey, which was carried in the same bag with two Bibles. This arrest took place after a prohibition sermon?Next!?Tugaloo Tribune.

Rather, in our opinion, such exposition only serves vviui a smarting sung to show the cruel fangs of the snake.

It is a special privilege of youth to cheer old age. How naturally an old person turns to a young person for sunshine! It is beautiful to see the sympathy that subsists between the two extremes of life. In some respects youth and age are as like as sunrise and sunset; and it seems to be God's blessed will and plan that each should turn to the other for help. It is in the power of every young person to bring sunlight into the life of some old person, to impart that "touch of rosy sunset" which is so sweet to the aged pilgrim who is drawing near the close of life. ?
