fromKash county, where he appeared
,a pmaermtlng-aUoniey ia-a ease
which he says -sraa te most revotUiig la
his entire recollection. A white man
named George Qrlffln aad Griffin's second
wife were convicted of manslaughter ' lb'
causing the death "of fotrr of Griffin's
children by a former toarriige. It, was
shown that there were foar children, the
oldest 10 yesrs -of age; that they were
placed lean out house 80. feet from the
home; (hat the step mother said site was
going to )eae the miserable little dirt-
eating devils ont there end let them die;"
that the poor children were fed Hke beasts
that they sickened and died - on one
bed, the first one In June, the .others at
Intervals of a' week or ten days; that
their sores and bed were SUed with msg
gets, that no doctor saw them, (hat they
were given no ? medicine; that :ome of
the, neighbors dlsoovered their awfol
condition and went to the place, , that
Qrlffln threatened M do those who
came violence and so drove them off,.
The place is In the "darkest" part of
Nash county and some of the people
living near evidently did not understand
their duty as neighbors. Griffin and his
wife were first ensrged with murder and
a true bill found. Then It was conclu
ded that on account. of their lowness In
the scale of Intelligence and their grind
ing poverty it was decided Jo try them
for manslaughter., iXhey wen convicted
and yesterday afternoon were sentenced,
the unnatural brute of a father to 18
years and the Inhuman step mother to 0
years In the penitentiary. Both richly
deserved the limit, 80 years. It was con
tended In the defence that, the children
died as much of disease as neglect, ; The
story is sonl-harrowlng. .The bodies of
the dead lay on the bed beside the living
until the neighbors took them away.

RESOURCES OF PfflUPPINES.
Judge Taft Says Opportunities
vauwvt I
, . Be Exaggerated.
Cihcinhati, Ohio, Nov. 87. Judge
Taft, president of the Philippine Com
mission, in a letter to a friend in this
city, refers to the resources., and needs
of the islands as follows: . I
"With these islands completely
pacified tbey are far and away the be.t
possessions in the Orient for the pur
poses of trade and development. The
climate Is better than the climate of any
tropical country I know, and the capac
ity for agricultural, mineral and com
mercial development would seem to be
unlimited.
"Even with the unsettled condition of
the country as it is -the tonnage of the
vessels Coming Into the harbor of Ma
nila, excluding the .Government trans
ports, Is double what It ever was in
Spanish times, and the same thing Is
true of the Inter-island tonnage. With
the construction of roads and railroads
through these Islands the opportunities
for development cannot be exaggerated.
These people are a people who take to
the luxuries of life, enjoy good clothes
and comforts, and markets among them
for cotton goods, canned goods, flour,
petroleum and machinery can be created
in a wonderfully short time.
"One of the things that is needed here
Is the Introduction of American business
methods. The establishment of two or
three large American business houses
here, retail and wholesale, carrying into
business the same methods that prevail
at home, would do wonders for the busi
ness standards of these islauds."
Both makers and circulators of coun
terfeits commit fraud. Honest men 'will
not deceive jou lntoj.buying worthless
counterfeits of DeWlu's Witch Hazel
Salve. The original Is infallible for curing
piles, sores, eczema and all skin diseases.

Missionary Society's Annual Meeting
Farmers Feeling Happy.
November 28th.
The Beech Grove Missionary .Society
held its annual meeting last Friday, our
friends from off did not join us aa much
as usual on these occasions and our
gathering was not as large as it has been
on some former meeting.
But we met to have a good social dsy,
to collect missionary money and enjoy a
good dinner at Beech Orove, all this we
did.
Our Society beat Itself this year by
bringing In more than one hundred dol
lam for the great cause (1108). More
workers and more effectual work done,
Is our report for 1600.
As to the dinner, It was all a farmer's
appetite at 1 o'clock p. m. could deslrs.
Only one feature was s disappointment,
and that was brldgd over very smoolL
ly. Dr. Swindell our speiker was sum
moned off and could not be with us, but
our pastor came in very nicely with an
appreciative talk, and all went on nice
Saturday the 2UU wis quarterly meet
ing on our circuit, and when some of
the brethren were regretting that they
were hopelessly behind on missions
Beecb Qrove wss rejoicing that her bills
were all paid In full, without offset or
discount.
