SENTIMENT OUTWEIGHS LAW
A few months ago tlie world was
(shocked when one hundred and
sixty-four children were burned
| to death in a school house in Col
lingwood, a suburb of Cincinnati,
’ says the Daw son News.
Recently the (Jttllingwood bo
of education let a contract for the
erection of a new school building
mi the site of the one which was
destroyed with such a frightful]
loss of life. Parents, especially
| mothers, of tin* little ones who
j perished jietitioned the court.]
1 pleading that they could not bear]
to see (fl her children playing where ;
their Own little ones perished so
j miserably. Judge Keeler granted |
an injunction against the school i
board, and declines to dissolve it.
The situation is a peculiar one.
The sit<- belongs to the board for
school purposes, and it has a nat
ural right to erect u new building
there. But the court says: ‘‘lts
proceedings were in legal form,but
it violated the discretion reposed
in a board acting for the public
! benefit. It was indiscreet in chons- i
' mg the old site in the face of vio
] lout objection.”
jin this case the board whs legal
ly right in its action, but the
judge puts sentiment in the oppo
site balance, and finds it outweighs
the law.
The board is lacking in good
{sense when it deliberately tramp-
I loh on the sore hearts of a commu
nity so recently and so terribly
i tortured.—D u b 1 i n Courier-Dis
j patch.
If there is any doubt in the
| mind of any fair man that the
i railroads of the South have been
in very hard lines financially for
the past year he should read the
full account of the evidence
given before the Georgia Kail
road Commission at the hearing
last Saturday. The rail roads
propose to increase freight rates
and from the evidence given it
seems that an increase is abso
lutely essentials.—Ocilln Star.
OBITUARY.
On Tuesday night, July 21, tlx*
soul of little Joe Byrd was tnken
to heaven where there will be no
more sad parting. Little Joe had
! been sick three weeks—the family,
i Dr. Mobley and friends did all
lhey could to relieve the little suf
ferer, but all to no avail —noth-
ing could stay tlx* work of the dis
ease which had a firm hold on his
j const it ut ion. For several days Joe
hung between life and death, and
the fond parents hoped against
hop.* that he would finally recover.
His little !*ody was laid to rest
in the family cemetery Wednes
day afternoon at I) o’clock.
It would seem that nature should
exempt little children from sick
ness, suffering and death, but
“Impartial fate which with equal
pace,
Knocks at the palace as at tlx*
cottage gate,”
is no respecter of age, and thus it
is the young and old are called
upon to pay the penalty. We
would extend to the heartbroken
parents sincere condolence and
sympathy. May the Christ in His
tender, loving mercy minister to
their broken hearts, and so heal
tlx-wounds which this I’rovidence,
always kind, but often mysteri
ous, has indicted.
Sweet and beautiful grow the
dowers over the tomb of tlx* bright
little fellow who had only a
glimpse of life. Little Jim* had
looked upon the l*eaulies of this
world 1 year, 0 months and 27
days, but during that time lie had
entwined tlx* cords of affection
about the hearts of his family,
rix* little one is gone but not for
gotten—in memory still he lives;
fain would we recall him hither,
tho’ the parting sadly grieves.
“Gone, gone, my friend ot early
childhood.
Gone to reap the great, reward;
Where lie’ll sing in loud hosannas
The praises of our risen I^ord.”
A Friend.
