LAY ON THE LASH. hast week, in the town of Greers, in Spartanburitg eOTlfity, a ' young girl, scarcely 1(5 years of age, committed Huicidde. As she writhed h\ the agonies of death from |K>lson, the old story of faith and trust in a faithless lover, was told by her. Rather than face the world In disgrace as -a wearer . of the scarlet letter, she closed her eyes to this world and trusted to the fortunes -of the next. ^Wojfto not mention the matter now to add to the sorrow of those who are left, behind, nor to add i lo the pathos of the story. But wC| do believe that there is no punishment, which it is the part, of man to inflict, which should not l?e- applied to the man who leads a girl llktfHhis into dis* grace and then deserts her. I Surely the statute law of this statfe should be so amended that a .man who seduces. woman under promise of marriage,! and then deserts her, should be declar ed a felon and fool the full measure of the pnnisbment provided by tho law for a i>erson guilty of- murder, arson <>r rape. The moral depravity in these cases la not greater than in the other.

Nish, the Latest Abandoned Capital, ail Ancient Scat and Center. Nish, the third national capital to be abandoned before the "necessities of war, is one of the ancient nuclei of jtttae Serbian nation, says a primer on War geography Just given out by the National Geographic Society- It has been the heart of things Serbian in the Balkan peninsula, since the days when this Slav i?eople became the neighbors of Imperial Byzantium. The other cap_ itals which have been abandoned In the course of the war are those of Brussels, Belgium, and Belgrade, the peace time government center of Ser bia. One other capital has been nearly menaced, Paris, which was temporarily abandoned -by the French government, but ' successfully defended against all of its enemy's assaults. Nish has been serving as the Serbian capital, practi cally, "since the outbreak of the war. This ancient city, oiure a prominent Roman stronghold, lies about 130 miles southeast of Belgrade, in the Morava valley, through which the chief Euro l*?an way Id Constantinople runs. It is .pnly about 40 miles west of the Bul garian frontier, and is defended on ev ery hand by a complex of rugflfcd, les <?er mountains. It is Serbia's second city, only surpassed in strategic and commercial Importance by Belgrade upon the Danube.
