DITOI'S JEISURE jfoUIS OBSERVATIONS OF It is a great pity that great and influential men will sometimes make such awful blunders as Hon. Champ Clark made Bome days ago, when he Champ dart's Great Error dec,ared in a pubUc 8peech that if tbe man who called him a liar would meet him outside he would "cut his throat from ear to ear." Men of influence ought to set a better example to the grert mass of the people. Such a speech is calculat ed to influence the minds o! those who hear it, and even such thoughts are suggestive oi violence, and should be suppressed. till Shall the ethics for newspaper work be set on a plane of such indiffer ence to propriety that one editor shall unblushingly clip and print what Credit or Ih Credit? thought that this Is the poper plane oa which to pitch newspaper work, but now and then we see such bold-faced wrecklessness in clipping and printing without credit that we are forced to believe that some editors seem to think it makes no difference. And really with them it does not. We are not thin-skinned we hope,but we are frank to say that it is a bit annoying to see what we write and print as original clipped and utilized by another paper without credit. At Statesboro, Ga., a few days ago tno negioes were burned at the stake after having been convicted and sentenced to be hanged. Their crime was Mob Law in Georgia. hanged on September 9th, but the enraged mob overpowered the guards and burned them. Thirteen more negroes were put under arrest charged with complicity in the murder of the white people, and fears have been ex pressed that these may suffer a like fate. This Is all veryhurtful, especially so after the murderers had been sentenced to death. No good end can be subserved by lynch lav? under such circumstances as those. Such an out break puts a blot cn the whole South end indeed upon the entire nation. There can be no excuse lor such bloody deeds under such circumstances. tttt 3 ver now many things concerning the Japanese soldier is of interest to the general reader. The Fayetteville Observer publishes the following bit Hew the Jap3 Regard Death. Sfv? ter-?. lyp!c-i c"-srr.p!es af ih J&panesd aoiiiex's contempt of death. He does not fight for his home and country, as does the European soldier, but goes into battle with the determination of a man who has decided to commit suicide. When leaving home he considers himself destined to die. During the whole war Admiral Toga has not exchanged a letter with any member of his family, and has positively forbidden anybody to write to him as long as tbe war lasts. Generar Inonye has forbidden any one to write him in case any of his four soldier sons are killed. When leaving bome tbe Japanese soldier absolves his fiance from her promise to marry him, saving: 'You are free, as I am going to die.'. The married soldier tells his wife to consider herself a widow, and leaves her with these words : 'You will never see me again. Manage our affairs as best you can, and see that our children get a good education, and bring them up to respect my memory,' " tttt Elsewhere we print the horrifying account of the death of two mem bers of the State Guard on their return from the encampment at Morenead City. The accounts say that the men left tbe An Awful Eesp3nsiWUty.tra.n at LaGrange aud cursd liquor, went on top of the cars and were making merry in drinking when they were killed at the covered bridge. There is an awful responsibility somewhere for those men leaving the cars. Was there a guard at the doors of the cars to keep the soldiers Irom leaving the train? If there was no such guard, why not? If there was such a guard then why were the men not kept in the train rather than allowed to fio at will? The matter should be inves tigated and the blame and responsibility should be placed where they be long. It will not do to lay the blame on the railroad company. Tbe rail road men had their work to do in runniug the train and so had no time to look after the members of the companies of soldiers ; and in truth it was none of their work. There should have been a guard at the doors of every car which carried the soldiers, and none of them should have been allowed to leave the train. It seems to us that that would have been military dis cipline, and if the State is to maintain any show of a military force it be comes farcical if it is not done thoroughly and well. The whole thing was most shocking and for tbe balance of their lives the families affected by the bloody incident will loath the very name and thought of the State Guard. tttt There is free and broad discussion in some of the papers concerning the question as to whether or not the mule i3 a kicker. Some have come to the defense of the much maligned mule and de Does the Mule Kick ? care tnev haye neyer been klcked by a mule have never seen any one else who has been kicked by a mule and haye ney er heard any one say that he had ever seen any one else kicked by a mule. Among those who make such declarations is Col. George E. JenDing8,quar ter master and commissary general of the Nebraska State Guard. He has a pet but bold statement about the non-kicking qualities of the mule, and so positive is he about it that it seems almost a pity to contradict it, but The Commonwealth must doit. Some months ago, Mr. A. P. Kitchin, a prominent voung attorney ofJScotland Neck, was kicked by a mule and with such result it was found that it might be fatal. But Col. Jennings has certainly not met with the kind of mule that kicked Mr. Kitchin. He writes about the mule thus : .'After a lifetime of close association with the mule I have never known him to kick a man ; nor have I ever met a man who knew another man of " s own Towage who had been kicked by a male. This is a bo d state ment but it is true, nevertheless. You can question soldiers of the army Everywhere, and I confidently predict that they will bear me out in this. I know I am uprooting a popular belief, but I asi you to stop and think and si if I am not doing our mule friend a deserved justice. Horse kicks are nlTnty ; mule kicks are as rare as promotions. Were you ever riding at are pieaty, comrades and camp, weary, looking E? ,dlX kC d'p - ,0 be found, yoo wr .Uh S - Wend HH hi. met of discovery ot the sougni-.i jpei oi uw J r.rit has smelt it .and hi tv no waterin sight Throw the bridle loose unerringly as a take you to water as roost."

We often see the flippant remark luuioiursucu auu Bucu imng I j m . i . i . . a passeu, oomeumes mis is true, . ..j . .jj.o.ng, nucu its mission Is performed, ought to pass away. It is only after a man has done his work that the day of his death is uBiMTi man iae uay oi nis oirm. uut iet usee certain mat me enanas come, before we proclaim a funeral, else we lu.Sui, uuu uuraeivcni uauuiiLR oome live corpses. Only a few minutes ago we noticed that one ot our most wel come exchanges had been suddenly and somewhat violently taken with tbe idea that the day of the weekly newspaper Is over. He thinks the rural delivery system has done much to hasten the end for the weekly newspa per, supplanting it with the daily. To this cause he adds the tendeocv of strenuous habits in thought and in business, and so makes out a case good ana nam against the weekly P-W- tne neretoiore welcome messenger to tha country home. Newspapers ought not. and will not, be judged by the class, any more than men will be juagea mat way. i . ... i Some papers of this cla?s must soon pass away ; of this there is no doubt, But it is nol because they are issued only one day in seven, but because they are sure enough weekly papers. An editor with ordinary good common J senre and with sufficient talent foi I nenspaper work, who will put hard, J honest work enough on his paper will I never, himself, be forced to attend its I fuherai. There is just as much room for a good weekly paper today as there ever was, and more too. 1 The bet weekly paper are, alter all. the surest, safest and most reliable methods of getting valuable informa tion. Every reasonable man will see at once that a daily paper has to do its work in narrow limits; it must measure time by the moment, not by the hour, I and much less by the day. What it does it must do quickly. Crude, im-l perfect and even wrong statements, must go as they are, lor even an at- tempt to correct them, is a thankless performance. The editor at his desk I relies much on the weekly newspaper when he is looking for a clear, elabor ate and reliable etatement of facts And bo in the library of every student of history, of politics, of science or-re- ligion. you wi 1 find the weekly paper holds a distinctive place. Papers live and grow with the growth and develop ment of thosa who make them ; and they just as certainly die and pass away when they fail to receive tbe best thought aud the untiring effects of those who i.reside over them. Papers are not valued for the fre- I quency of their visits, tut rather for what they con lain when they appear, No external force or change in con- dltions can kill a paper daily nor weekly as long as tbe inside of the print-shop is all right, and the readers supplied with tbe best that can be had. There is absolutely no danger of anv man's failing who can thiuk a thought, -i and who has courage and skill enough to express it. SUICIDE PREVENTED.

When tbe trains stopped at LaGrange Warren, Tohn80n. Cates and McDade left their COacb. They had been drinking and were under the influence of honor I instead of returning to the company's I car they mounted one ol tho coaches I nd remained in this perilous position a8 the journey Was continued. Some- I thing was said in the car about tbe men being on top, it is said, but it was I not reported and their peril was not J realized. The first intimation of the disaster W!IS wnen the train entered the city limits and blood was observed trick- img aown tfce side of the car. About the same time, as the trJn turned tre curve near the rice mill, the engineef of another train saw the bloody figures prostrate ou top of the car and blew the emergency signal. Engineer Rus- 11 brought his train to a dead stop and as tbe soldiers poured out an indescribable scene of horror met their gaSe. Warren lay on his face with the back ot his skull battered in. His head was near the edge of tbe car and blood was streaming down the side. Johnson was also thrown forward, tbe top of his head almost knocked off. Cates and McDade, then standing among the dead,, keeping the bodies from falling trom the car, were also bleeding pro- tusely. The blood was then running in such a stream that both sides of the coach were stained. The four men were sitting on the car top, their backs to the engine,tbeir arms about each other, singing a gay song, when the heavy timbers of tbe bridge covtr smote them on the back of their beads. Warren and Johnson were a little forward, so the beam struck them first. This alone saved Cates and McDade Irom the horrible death their companions suffered. The two survivors were knocked over by tbe bodies of their friends and thissav- ed them Irom receiving the full force of the blow. Engineer Russell and Conductor Davis, as well as the passen- gers, were in absolute ignorance of the accident until the train slowed up at Golds boro The dead bodies were removed, iaia .... .. . . on a cot, covereu wim a sneei, piacea in' a baggage car and were thus convey ed by tbe special train on to their home in Durham.

Ke was considered one of the most capable members of tbe fi-st regiment and saw service in Cuba. He was recently as signed from the First to the Third reg iment on account of geographical situ ation. Worn out by bis work during the morning Captain White was avleep when the accident happened and Lieut. Ramsey was oet in command. Two of the four men on top of the Car were non commissi ned officers, one a ser geant and tbe other a corporal. Adjutant General B. S. Royster and other officers were on the train and un officially investigated here the" distress ing accident. The fault lies with tbe injured men who, in direct violation ol orders, it appears, vacated their com pany's car and climbed to the danger ous position on the roof. The presence of the men ou the car was unknown to the cobtluctar until the train entered the city with the bloody and cruelly maimed burden, the distorted face of one cf the dead pro truding over the edge of the car top, the vacant eyes etar'ng down cn those . who looked up from the car windows below. Cates and McDade, though fearfully hurl, bfaely struggled to keep the mangled forms irom roiling off as the train sped alang at 30 miles an hour. The Unrecognized Opportunities of Life. jtli'ti V. F.cfrteeller. Jr. This question of Unrecognized op portunities is a subject which we have discussed here before, and it seems to me it is always pertinent. Let us con sider' and ask ourselves whether we recognize the opporiilh'iiea thnt are constantly put before us in life. Had Paul waited lor the great chance which men are always looking for his life would haye been a failure, as it is with so many others. Opportunity does not seek the man, it comes to men, u seems to me, nut me man nas tone awake and watching for it. It is like the parable of tbe wise and foolish vir- ... 4 .. . gins, some ol them nsa prepareu themselves, tbe others had been fool ish, and when it came for them to go with tbe Lord tbe foolish ones were left behina. It is tbe men who are watching for t, who are ready and recognize tbe op portunity when It comes, and take ad vantage c !tj that make a success of life. Those who are thoughtless, who ack faith and sincere and earnest de- .! S sire, who nye in a snmiees way ana who are not prepared for the opportu nity- is those men who fail. Just think what tbe world may be missing because you and I are railing to-day to recognise the opportunities of life which come to us and Which we do not see ! Of course, we always see the large op portunities ; we recognize them easily enough ; but was there ever a man fit to be a general rrko had not first been a sergeant and worked himself up, showing himself capable aud trust worthy? Was there ever a man who held a high position who had not first filled positions of lesser responsibility? And so by nalogy it is quUe evident that it is with God as it is with us In our daily life. Do you and X make tbe most of our opportunities? How are we going to meet the grand opportuni ty If we have failed to prepare, and de velop ourselves to a position of fitness to make the most ot It?
