THE CARROLL COUNTY TIMES
VOL. XIV.
SPEECH OF H. M REID, OF
FAIRBURN GA.
Delivered on the Occasion of the
Celebration of the Anniversary
. of St, John the Baptist at
Carrollton Ga.
Ladies and Gentleman and
Brethren of the Mystic Tie:—
There is truth in the doctrine of
“the survival of rhe fittest,” and
there is pro *f of it in the actual life
and continuance of that which is
best and purest. Truth is really in
destructible. It may be crushed to
the earth, but it will rise again, for
“the eternal years of God are hers,”
and so also will that institution
based on truth and founded in cor
rect moral principles, having for its
object the betterment of mankind
and the perpetuity of principles that
arc light and just and pure, survive
the crumbling Empires and falling
States, rise before the wrecks of
time and continue to live in serene
triumph, exerting wider influence
and challenging more profound ad
miration ns the world grows older
and as cycle after cycle rounds off
the periods that go to make up the
completed sum of time. And thus
Free Masonry stands to-day. In ti e
deep mists of the remotest antiqui
ty the institution was born, and
through the intervening ages it en
countered bitter and continuous
opposition, but strong in the purity
,iud truth of its principles and ever
steadfast and faithful in the pursu
ance of its humane and splendid ob I
ject, the world at last recognized '
its worth, and itisnow secure in the i
certainty of established and final!
triumph.
1 may not now discourse at any
length upon the objects of Mason
ry nor discuss the reasons why it
commends itself to all right think
ing people. Its achievements known i
and seen of all men arc its sufficient
and abundant justification, and its
continued life and virtual indes
tructibility conclusively attest its
claim to a basis of truth and the I
purity and propriety of the materi
als of its upbuilding and niaintens
once.

behind which it acts, can afford no;
just ground of attack, nor furnidi

silence and secrecy nature performs
he l .’ wonders, and while we look I
with awe and admiration upon the '
results, we see net the processes.— !
The blooming fields, the fragrant |
loveliness, tlje mountain’s solemn :
grandeur and the rolling spheres |
we behold, are the accomplished ]
works, but impenetrable secrecy |
and silence hold forever the means .
of their production and develop-|
ment. And so the human mind, I
withdrawn into secrecy and silence i
and engaged in introspective medi
tation, develops its powers and its
genius while we sec only its results
in resultant intellectual attainments I
and material accomplishment. The
character of the work can be best
determined by the nature of the
production. The pure fountain
will not send forth impure waters,
and of the tree you judge by its
fruits. And by this test Free Ma
sonry challenges the criticism oi
mankind. The veil of silence am!
secrecy will not be raised, but the
fruits of the sacred works will con
tinue to be seen in tne improvement
and elevation of those- who will ac
cept their benefit. These virtues
are supreme, in Masonry and -must
ever be observed.
The analogies of Masonry are
most apt and beautiful. Truth is
best enforced on the consciousness
by illustration, and important les
sons’are most effectually taught by
metaphor, by example and by com-
pai isoii.
The mosfbeautiful thoughts of
the human mind find their most stii
kiug expression in comparison witn
those things which are beautiful in
the material world. Every feeling
and thought seeks materialization.
The painter’s notion of beauty
looks out from the canvas, and the
sculptor’s chisel carves into mateiial
shape his idea of symetry of form
ano poetry of outline. * Degree and
character are measured by compar
ison and demonstrated by iilnstra
tion, and as things material are
found useful in certain re’at ions,
their lemons of fitness may be ap
plied, by anolcgy and comparison,
to ideas and truths in the mental
and moral world, and the ru»es nor
essary to the proper material devel
opment, with only the change of
application, will pro luce a like
inoral development so, that as the
operative Masons in following the
master workman’s designs upon the
trpstlc board may take the rough
ashlar and, by the gunge. gavel,
plumb, square, level, compass an !
trowel fashion it into the perfect
ashlar and lit it in its place in the
wads of the temple, so can specul i
tive Masonry, following the designs
on the trestle board.. laid down by
the Master of the universe, take
the rough nature of man, and by
fortitude, prudence, tempera- ee
and justice, fashion it to the pei-fU-t
nature and fit it into the structure
of society, and as rose the ureat
temple, the architectual wonder of
the woild, so will arise society alike
]»erfect in its constitution and rela
tions And as that temple wa«
worthy to hold the ark of the cove
nant so may this one be found
worthy to hold the spiritual cove
nant of the Lord with his peo-
As the perfect ashlar was fitted

without feeling its influence and
J on can not entertain pure thoughts
without thereby purifying your
life. ' / '
And is it not true then that an
institution whose principles and
tenets are of such a character de
serves universal commendation?
And is it not a proper desire to
hope that its active and useful life
may end only with the death of
time? Being well assured that in

secure the key by which the door
can be open to the understanding

by its mathematics. We listen to

is attained and under the all seeing

swiftly run and the scythe cuts the

The snapping of one chord
I on nature’s harp sends a tremor of
sympathy along its kindred chords,
and the snapping of one chord on
the great life harp will leave the
instrument all jangled out of tune.
The failure of one element in
nature to perform its function, pro
duces a shock and so the failure of
one life shocks all life. We may
not avoid this reciprocal influence.
“No star ever rose and set. with
out influence.” “No stream from
' its source flows seaward, how lone
ly so’er its course, but some land
is gladdened thereby.” “No life
can be pure in its purpose and
strong in its strife and all life not
be purer and stronger thereby.”
This principle and inclination
teach a solemn and important les
son. How best to heed it, how
most perfectly to obey it is a ques
tion of grave concern. And in no
way can its reqirrements be more
fully met than in the brotherhood
of Free Masonry. Here the doc
trine is recognized in its full spirit
and the rules arc sought to be em

ideal society when the world shall
become perfect. Here are practiced
the truly commendable virtues of i
brotherly love. Relief and truth
and friendship and morality char- i

And in this way the brotherhood <
becomes a great family; relieving ;
each other, helping each other and s
guiding each other by the principles 1
of everlasting truth. No higher aim (

A Colored Man’s Testimony.
I was confined to my bed with '
rheumatism for a long time. I
could not move nor suffer anyone
elso to move a limb, so great was
the pain. 1 had several eminent
nhysicians to treat me, but I found
no permanent relief from their ef
forts. I was advised at last to use
Swift's Specific, which I did. Af
ter taking the third bottle I was
able to get up by myself. I con
tinued to improve. I gained seve
ral pounds in five weeks, and my
general health is better than it has
been for many years. If it had
not been for Swift’s Specific 1 ver
ily believe rheumatism would have
left me a cripple for life, as my
joints were already stiff. I feel
very grateful for what this medi
cine has done for mo. 1 put it first
mid foremost of all the blood piri
fiers before the public.

1 Wyandotte, 0., June 20.—This
city is in a frenzy of excitement
- over an elopemert with peculiar
• and sensational features and which
■ concerns two of the leading families
; of the community.
Aii?s Stella Maynard is the only
daughter of John Maynard, a
wealthy mill owner and lumber
dealer of this, town, whore-ides
in a handsome large house with
spacious grounds near the outskirts
of Wyandotte Miss Stella
is just 18 years <»f age and only
returned from aL Cincinnati board
ing school a feviGjnonths ago. She
is a decidely hafidsome brunette,
with sparkling black eyes and ebon
hair.
The only objection that could be
found to the handsome daughter
of the wealthy mill-owner is her
size. Miss Stella weighs in the’
vicinity of 275 pounds, and her
shoes have to be imported from
Chicago,
Notwithstandsng this drawback
tne young lady did not want for
suitors. Half a dozen young men
of the town threw themselves at
hei feet and incurred the risk of
being crushed, but Miss Maynard
remained fancy free untill a few
weeks ago.
One day she entered Simmons’
dry goods store, and her eyes fell
upon a tall, pale younji man who
parted his hair in the middle and
who shouted “Cash 33!” in a lovely
tenor voice.
Miss Maynard was charmed by
the manner in which he ripped off
two yards of pongee silk and told
the lady it was a remnant or she
wouldn t get it so cheap. Next
day she called at the store again,
and after buying a paper of pins
secured an introduction to the good
looking clerk. He was Charles
Chiystal, the son of a former May
or of the town, but whose family
had been reduced to poverty by
following the races.
The intimacy between the young
people increased and the quantity
of pins and ribbons which-Miss
Maynard found it necessary to pur
chase WQlllfl stru:'Lr o -x-
Maynard mansion, and a
nights ago his presence wa° noted
by Mr. Maynard. When he had
gone the old gentleman inquired:
“Stella, who was that wax-works
with, his hair parted in the mid
dle?”
“Wax -works!" repeated the girl.
“Why, pa, that was dear Char
lie.”
Then Mr. Maynurd declared that
Charlie’s father had once cheated
him in a horse trade, and he inci
dently rc’iiarked that if he caught
Charlie around there again he
would tie him to a fence and back
the mule against him.
This threat had no effect on the
lovers and they continued to meet
rlar.destinely.
Mr. Chrystal proposed elopement
and although Miss Maynard shrank
from the thought of leaving her
papa in a rage she at length con
sented to fly with Charlie.
Last night was chosen as the
time for departure, and a dark,
murky sky favored the plans of the
couple. As Mr. Maynard is afraid
of burglars the doors of his
house are always kept locked and
bolted. It became necessary for
Miss Stella to slide down from her
window, a dangerous experiment,
as she slept upon the fourth floor
directly over the bedchamber of
her father.
The brave girl announced her
readiness to'try the plan, however,
and at midnight §he let a rope
down from her window. Mr.
Chrystal stood beneath, trembling
and wishing that he was well on
his way to the minister's.
“Catch me if I fall!” whispered
Miss Stella, and she began her per
ilous descent. Iler feet banged
against her fathei's window as she
slid past his room and the old man
was awakened by the noise.
Hastily grabbing a he
opened the window andl< oked out.
Seeing the rope he supposed a
burglar was trying to crawl into
the house. ’Aith one sweep of the
razor he cut die rope. xA terrible
cry of fear rang out on the night
air and Miss Maynard, who was
still 15-feet above the ground, fell
with the force oi a boysc upon
Chai les Chrystal. Mr, Jdaynard
rushed down md the unfortunate
young man was picked up in a
I quilt and removed to the house.—
At daybreak he was taken to the
Oily Hospital, where he lies in a
critical condition, not yet having
re co vered co n sei o u sness.
Miss Maynard is almost heart
broken, and is in constant atten
dance up >n her crushed sweetheart.
Mr. Maynard says if the young
man recovers he can marry Miss
i Stella without further opposition.
The Sceptic Answered.
“I don't’ lielieve in a personal
God," remarked a sceptic to Rev.
R. It. Jones, a Welsh Presbyterian
minister, who was a fellow- traveler
in a railroad train between
Toledo and Cleveland some time
ago.
“M hy not? asked the minister.
“Because I can't sec him. 11 is
existence is not demonstrable,
capable of proof like facts of sci
ence.
The minister asked, “Dont you
believe that you are alive, and that
I am alive?”
“5 es,' he answered.
“M by do you believe it?”
“Because I can see you move.’
“Well,” said the minister, “the
locomotive that is drawing this i
train also move? —is it alive?’’
“No,” he answered, “but the en
gineer who runs it is alive.”
“Please tell me,” said the minis
ter, “whether the engineer is a
part of the machinery or a living
person?” “
“He is a living person,” replied
the sceptic.'
“Now. sir,” retorted the minister,
“consistency is a jewel—please tell
me why you attribute the move
ment of the locomotive to a livino
person, but deny that God, who
sets rhe universe in motion, is a
person?” <
j He could not answer. Silenced
’ on this argument, he branched off
into another objection against
Christianity.
“What 1 hate,' said he “in ortho
doxy, is this eternal talk about
crce 1, creed, creed, thrust upon us
everywhere and at all times.’’
“WJiat do you mean by a man’s
creed? ’ asked his opponent.
“I understand by a creed that
which a man believes.”
“Well, sir,’ rejoined the minis
ter. “yon have just as much creed
as 1 have. I believe there is a
personal God; you believe the op
posite doctrine. 1 believe in the
incarnation of the Son of God for
our redemption;, you believe the
opposite. I believe in the ruined
estate of man, you believe the op
posite. - What difference u,,....
i wnvvcuiic siuu of Tne question
and you believe the other? Now, sir,
when we come to that point, you
have just as much creed on vonr
side as I have on mine: but you
want the right to advocate your
sentiments, but wish to deny me
the right on ir.y side.”
He was silenced again.
“But,” said the sceptic, resuming
the attack by another argument,
common at this day, “Christianity
is not capable of scientific demon
stration. When we take the sci
ences, all truths are capable of de
monstration by experiments which
prove them. You can put them
to the test. I take peculiar pleas
ure in the study of chemistry. Its
propositiions are plain and capable
of proof by facts and experiments
which appeal to the senses.”
•‘You have studied chemistry,
have you?” inquired the minister.
“Yes, sir,” he answered.
“Well,'' resumed the minister,“if
you are a student of chemistry you
are acquainted with the fact that
charcoal, coal and diamond are the
same in their molecules—namely
carbon. Now can you take a
molecule out of the charcoal and
put it into the diamond and get
a perfect thing of it?”
He acknowledged he could not.
“ Where, then,” said the minis
ter, “is your demonstration in
chemistry? But so far as Chris
tianity is concerned your objection
is not valid, for it is capable of
spiritual demonstration. You can
try it and find it all that God has
represented it to be. God says to
all, ‘O, taste and see.’ Try it, and
experience will attest its truth.—
Millions have put it to the test oj
their experience, and have found
it ‘the power of God unto salvation
to every one that belicveth.”
The skeptic then in a somewhat
conciliatory spirit, acknowledged
that his father and mother were
orthodox, Christian people,
The minister inquired, ‘'Were
• they good people?”
>• “Yes, excellent; my father was
i an excellent, good man.”
: “Well,” inquired the minister,
? “wh«t practical .beneflfc do you get
I by changing the religion of your
i . parents for scepticism? Does it
I make you a better man? Are yon a
J better husband to your wife; a l>ut
i ter fathei to your children; a better
- citizen in the community in which
j you live?” .
He frankly acknowledged he was
pot.
“Have you a watch?’’ inquired
the minister.
“Yes, an excellent timepiece,”
he said, taking it out and display
ing a fine gold watch.
“It keeps time, docs it?”
“Yes.”
“Well, how would you trade it
[ off? M mild it not be for a better
timepiece and a more valuable,
rather than for an inferior om ?”
“5 es, certainly.”
: “Here again,” retorted the mm
, ister, “you are not acting consis
i tentlv with reason; for von have
changed the creed of your parents
j for one that, by your own confes
sion, does not benefit you at all!”
lie had no reply to make.
i “Now, my brother,” concluded '
the minister, “why do you embrace ’
I infidelity in preference to the faith
of your parents? Is it only hecans?
you love sin and the first’ principle
of Christianity is holiness—oppo
j sit ion to sin. Is it not so?”
He was speechless.
Ihe train stopped and they sep
arated. Hie sceptic seeming loth
to part on unfriendly terms’ insis
ted upon the minister’s repairing
to a neighboring dining saloon and
enjoying a good supper at his ex
pense.
God grant that the conversation
may result in good, and lead the
sceptic to discard the sophisms and
delusions of Infidelity, and anchor
his soul, drifting without pilot or
compass on life's troubled sea, to
the Rock of Ages, and finn in 1

What He Used.
“lon say that you was forcibly
ejected?”
No, sir; I don t say nothing of
the kind.”
"Didn't I understand you to say
that no removed you with vio
lence?”
I don t know what you under
stood, but 1 didn’t say that.”
I inferred from wh.it you told
me that he used force to compel
your exit.”

Cured, the Boy.
All the adult passengers in the
waiting room had their attention
attracted by his antics. He wanted
candy, and he wanted to see the
river, and he wanted to go aboard
the train, and hu wanted more than
any city the size of Detroit could
possibly furnish free gratis. His
mother hushed him up the best she
could, and several times he slapped
her face and kicked her shins and
got off without even a pinch.. By
and by an old man who sat near
her, and whose feet the boy had
walked on several times, began to
get nervous, and turning to bis
right hand neighbor, said:
Land a’massy! but I’ve cither got
to git outer here or spank that
boy!
He just aches for it, growled the
other.
He does. lie puts me in mind of
my William. I’ve seen William
when nothing in the world but a
spanking would put good nature
into him.
I say I will go, shouted the boy
at this moment.
Please, Johnny, be good, en
treated his mother.
1 won't !
Oh, do ! See how they are all I
looking at us.
I don’t care if they are.
With that he walked up to the
old man and made a kick, and then
the curtain went down on the play.
With one twist and two motions he
was seized, whirled over a pair of
knees, and before he could squawk
once the spanking machine began
its work. If ever a boy of seven
was neatly wound up and the ugly
taken out of him inside of sixty
seconds the work was no more com
plete than in this case.
There ! said the speaker as he up
ended the child and placed him on
a seat, you'll feel better—a heap
better. Hated to do it, yon know,
but saw that you was suffering for
it, Beg your mother’s pardon for
interfering in family matters, but
you set right thar till the train is
ready !
The boy set, and such a calm and
solid peace stole over the crowd
that the yells of the' hackman out
doors gave everybody a pain
