THE CARROLL COUNTY tW
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 proof of it in the actual life
and continuance of that which is
best and purest. Truth is redly 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 f >undcd in cor
rect moral principles, having for its
object the betterment of mankind
and the perpetuity of principles that
are right and just and pure, survive
the crumbling Empiresand fulling
States, rise before the wrecks <if i
time and continue to live in serene j
triumph, exerting wider influence
and challenging more j rofound ad
miration as the world grows older
and as after cycle rounds off
the periods that go to make up the I
completed sum of tune. An I thus I
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
and truth of its principles and ever
steadfast and laithf al inWhe pursu
ance of its humane and splendid ob
ject, the world at last recognized
its worth, a id it isnow secure in the !
certainty of established and final I
triumph.
I may* not now discourse at any
length upoa the objects of Mason
ry nor discuss the reasons why it'
commends itself to all right think
ing people. Its achievements known
and seen of all men are its sufficient
and abundant justification, and its
continued life and virtual indes
tructibility conclusively attest its J
claim to a basis of truth and the J
purity and propriety of the materi- 1
als of its upbuilding and maintens
ence.
The veil of secrecy and silence ‘
behind which it acts, can affp*G I 1
just, groimn .n attack, nor turni-h (
any real weapon to its .enemies. In A
silence and secrecy nature performs {
her wonders, and while we look ! ;
with awe and admiration upon the j
results, we see net the processes. — (
The blooming fields, the fragrant i J
loveliness, the mountain’s solemn ; (
grandeur and the rolling spheres ,
we behold, arc the accomplished j
works, but impenetrable secrecy ,
and silence hold forever the means i
of their production and develop- | ■
merit. And so the human mind. ’ (
withdrawn into secrecy and silence . ,
and engaged in introspective modi-. ,
tation, develops its powers and its!
genius while we sec only its results i
in resultant intellectual attainments 1
and material accomplishment. The i
character of the work can be bestl
determined by the nature of the]
production. The pure fountain ;
{yill not send forth impure waters,
mid of the tree you judge by its
fruits. And by this test Free Ma
sonry challenges the criticn-m of
mankind. The veil of silence and
secrecy will not be raise 1, but the
fruits of the sacred works will con
tinue to be seen in the improvement
and elevation of those who will ac
cept their benefit. These virtues |
»re 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
example and by com
paiison.
The most beautiful thoughts of
the human mind find their most stii
king expression in comparison with
ifiose things ■yyb-ich 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 material
shape his idea of symetry of form
ane poetry of outline. Degree and
cliariactei' are measurcu, by compar
ison and demonstraied by bins: ra
tion, and as things material . arc
found useful in certain re’a'ions,
ilicir ipsuons Qt Hincss may he ap
plied, by enology and comparison,
to ideas an I truths in tne m ntal
and moral vorld, and the rmes nec
essary to the proper material devel
opment, with only the change of
application, will produce a like
moral development so, that as the
operative Masons in following the
master workman's designs upon the
trestle board may take the rough

on the trestle board, laid down by
the Master of the universe, take
the rough nature of man, and bv
fortitude, prudence, tempers ce
and justice, fashion it to the perfect
nature and fit it into the struct lre
of society, and as ruse the m -it

lessons anti no man may study 1
them even indifferently ’ and not I

: , 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 desme to
hope that its active and useful life
may end only with the death of
time? Being well assured that in
the Eternities the fruits of its good
influence may be seen and felt.
The field of speculative Masonry
jis exhaustless. In it the. imagina
tion may take its loftiest flights and
the fancy may play with its most
beantiful conceptions.
The sciences open their ponder
our volumes and invite the philos
phic mind to research and investi
gf’tion. The arts unfold their ever
entrancing beauties and learning’l
spreads broad its pages that we I
may grow wiser and better. With
in the compass of its scope we may
reach the highest possible attain
ment.
Within its temple new beauties

and new truths are constantly.

feeling the solemn and holy influ

umns wo learn of wisdom, strength
and beauty, as well in life as in its
structure. We learn its symphon
ies, sec Its beauties, feel its influ
ences, smell its fragrance and taste
the rich viands it furnishes for in
tellectual and moral culture. We
secure the key by which the door
can be open to the understanding
of'speech. We enjoy the elo
quence of its rhetoric, argue by the
power of its logic and demonstrate
by its mathematics. We listen to
the strains of its music and through
its ast-onomy we look upon the cel
estial hemisphere, spangled with
the most magnificent heralds of
God's infinite glory. And in its
lesson of plenty we learn content
ment and therefore happiness,
And now up the toilsome ascent
of the winding stairway we rise to

the ultimate aim and purpose of all
Masonic teaching. W hen this truth

eye the sands in the hour glass

e cohesive principle that forms
} states and societies. It is a wise
e Principle divinely implante and
t from it flows the true doctrine that
" , We . are reciprocally each others
t “dpers. A one are independent.
1 But as m nature there is an invari
-3 able Jaw which requires all things
- to work in harmony, mutually de
pendent, so in society when per
- tec-ten, there will prevail a similar
l law. Ihe snapping of one chord 1
on nature’s harp sends a tremor of j
* 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 fail me of one element in
I nature U perform its function, pro
■ i duces a shock and so the failure of
one life shocks all life. We may
i not avoid this reciprocal influence,
j “No star ever rose ambseb with
out iufluem-eA -No stream from
its souice seaward, how lone
ly so’er its course, but some laud
is gladdened thereby.” “No life |
<an be pure in its purpose and
strong in its strife and all life not
l*e purer and stronger thereby.”
This principle and inclination <
teach a solemn and important, les- <
son. Hqw best to heed it, how I
most perfectly to obey it is a qnes- I
tion of grave concern. And in no i
way can its requ’rements be more
fully met than in the brotherhood
of Free Masonry. Here the doe
trine is recognized in its full spirit
and the rules are sought to be em
ployed,which must characterize that
ideal society when the world shall
become perfect. Here are practiced
the truly commendable virtues of
brotherly love. Relief and truth
and friendship and morality char
acterize the mystic relations.
And in this way the brotherhood
becomes a great family; relieving
each other, helping each other and
guiding each other by the principles
of everlasting truth. Ne higher aim
can inspire 'unman effort, uo grand
er mission can employ human ener
gies and no loftier ambition can
move the human heart ,
The performance of such dißits
brings an unending consolation ana
and the reward for
glories of Eternity.
Then, Brethern of the mystic
tie, our institution needs no apology
and repuires no defence.
It only behooves you to demon
strata the vitality and reality of
those great truths and to evidence
the truth of this piofossion.
Let these virturs shed the radi
avce which in their nature is
properly theirs.
Let the world feel the power and
see the of true Free Mason
Let your lives fully reflect the
real brilliance of its great lights.
And so, when the last fraternal
hand grasp is unclasped, when the
mosaic pavement with indented tes
sel is exchanged foi the floor of the
canopy inlaid with the itars of
light, v/hen the blazing star is ex
changed for the real presence, and
we have ascended the last winding
stairway and entered into the inner
temple, we may hear from the lips
of the eternal Grand Master “well
done good and faithful servants.”

From Zhe New turk Journal.
Wyandotte, ()., June 20.—This
ci«y is in a frenzy of excitement
over an clopemei t with peculiar
and sensational features and which
concerns two of the leading families
of the community.
Miss Stella Maynard is the only
daughter of John Maynard, a
wealthy mill owner and lumber
dealer of this town, who resides
in a handsome large house with
spacious grounds near the outskirts
of . Miss Stella
is jusfe > vears of age and only
i m nett xiv.ii a- Gincinnati board
ing scßool a few months ago. bhe
is a dec; .Ely handsome brunette,
with sparkling black eyes and ebon
hair.
The <mly objection that could be
found to the handsome daughter
of the wealthy mill-owner is her
size. Miss Stella weighs in the
viciniiv<f 275 pounds, and her
shoe’, have to be imported from
Chicago,
Notwithstandsng this drawback
the young lady did not want for
suitors. Half a dozen young men
of the town threw themselves at
her 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 young man who
parted his hair in the middle and
who shouted “Cash in a lovely
tenor voice.
Mi>s Maynaru was charmed by
the manner in which ho 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 alter buying a paper of pins
secured an introduction to the good
looking clerk. He was Charles
Clnystal, 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 aiid ribbons which WiA
wotTicrstock a country store.
Mr. Chrystal soon began to ca’l at
Maynard mansion, and a few
nights age his presence \va n - 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, na, that was dear Char
lie.” "
Then Mr. Maynurd declared that
Charlie’s father had once cheated
him in a hoi .-e trade, and he inci
dently remarked 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
clandestinely.
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 burglary the doers of his
house aye 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, j
The brave girl announced her
readiness to try the plan, however,
and at midnight she 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.
G Catch me if 1 fall;” whispered
Miss Stella, and she began her per
ilous descent. Her feet banged
against her father’s window as she
slid past bis room and the old yp,an
was awakened by nojse.
grabbing g razor he
opened the window and 1< oked out.
Seeing the rope he supposed a
burglay was trying to crawl into
ihe house. With one sweep of the
razor he cut the rope. A terrible
erv of fear rang out on the night
i air and Miss Maynard, who was
! still 15 feet above the ground, fell
with the force ol a horse upon
Chai les Chrystal. Mr. Maypard
rushed down md the unfortunate
, ouug man was picked up in a
bpnit and removed to the house.—
At daybreak he w*as taken to the
City Hospital, wherq he lies in a
critical condition, iiQt yet havir.g
recovered copsciou&ness.
Miss Maynard is almost heart
broken, and is in constant atten
dance upon her crushed sweetheart.
Mr. Maynard says lr rhe young
man recovers.he can marry Miss
Stella without further opposition.
The Sceptic Answered.
i “I don’t believe in a personal
J God,” remarked a sceptic to Rev.
R. f. Jones, a AVslsh Presbyterian
minister, who was a fellow- traveler
‘ in a railroad train between
1 1 oledo and Cleveland some time
ago.
Why not? asked the minister.
“Because I can't see him. His
existence is not demonstrable,
capable of proof like facts of sci
eiiee.
The minister: askod, “Dont you
believe that ytou are alive, and that
I am alive?” *
“1 es,’.' he answered.
“IV by do you believe it?"
"Because 5 can see you move.’
"Well, said the minister, “the
locomotive that is drawing this
train also moves—is it alive?”
"No," he answered, “but the en
gineer who runs it is alive.”
1 lease ted me, said the minis
ter, "whether the engineer is a I
part of the machinery dr a living
person ?” I
"He is a living person,” replied j
\he sceptic' I;
“Now\ sir,' retorted the minister, 1
“consistency is a jew’el—please tell
me why yon attribute the move- '
ment of the locomotive to a living 1
person, but deny that God, who ’
sets rhe universe in motion, is a 1
person?’ __ <
He could not answer. Silenced
on this argument, he branched off
into, another objection against
Christianity.
"W hat I ha^e,' said he “in ortho
doxy, is this eternal talk about
croc 1, creed, creed, thrust upon us
everywhere and at all times.”
“What do you mean by a man’s
creed? ’ asked bis opponent.
“I understand by a creed that
which a man believes.”
W ell, sir, rejoined the minis
tci, yon have just as much creed
as I 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 i’yjjjyt]
in the bulk of our creed, only that
1 believe one side of the question
and you believe the other? Now, sir,
when we come to that point, you
have just as much creed on your
side as I have on mine: but you
want the right to advocate your
sentiments, but wish to deny me
the right on tr.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.”
"V on have studied chemistry,
have yon?” inquired the minister.
“A es, 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 arc the
same in their molecules —namely
carbon. Now can you take a
molecule out of the charcoal and
put it into thq 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 to i
all, ‘O, taste and qee. Try it, and
experience will attest its truth.—
Millions have put it to the test of
their experience, and have found
it ‘the power of God uqto salvation
to every erne dyit beljeveth,”
The skeptic then in a somewhat
conciliatory spirit- j acknowledged
that hjs father and mother were
orthodox, Christian people.
The minister inquired, “Were
they good people?'’
"Yes, excellent; my father was
an excellent, good man.”
“Well,” inquired the minister,
“what practical benefit do you get
by changing the religion of your
parents soy seepdrismi' -Does it
make you a better man? Are you a
l better husband to your wife; a bet-
I ter fathei to your children; a better
| citizen in community in which
|y-c.n live?”
He frankly acknowledged he was
not.
“Have you a watch?” inquired
the minister.
mi* excellent timepiece,”
he said, taking it out and display
ing a fine gold watch.
“It keeps time, does il?’’
“Yes.”
.———.—
“Well, how would you trade it
1 off? Would it not !*e for a better
. timepiece and a more valuable,
i rather than for an inferior one?”
"Y es, certainly.”
i : “Here again,” retorted the min-,
' ister, "you are not acting cunsis |
tently with reason; for you have I
changed the creed of your parents I
i I for one that, by your own confes- I
sion, does not benefit you at all!" ’
He had no reply to make.
j “Now, my brother,” concluded •
i the minister, "why do you embrace
infidelity in preference to the faith
.of your parents? Is it only because I
you love sin and the first principle j
jof Christianity is holiness— uppo- i
; sition to sin. Is it not so?”
He was speechless.

"No, sir; I don’t say notliing of
the kind.” °
“Didn’t I understand you to say

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 sec the
river, and he wanted to go aboard
the train, and he 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 either got
to git outer here or spank that
boy!
He just aches for it, crowded the
other.
He does. He 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.
Blease, Johnny, be good, en

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
